("KEFI" or the "Company")
Confirmation of Share Capital Reorganisation
No Change in Ordinary Shares in Issue
At the AGM on 28 June 2019, KEFI Minerals plc passed a
resolution approving that each of the currently issued ordinary
shares of 1.7p ("Existing Ordinary Shares") in the capital of the
Company be sub-divided into one new ordinary share of 0.1p ("New
Ordinary Shares") and one deferred share of 1.6p ("Deferred
Shares"). With effect from 8 July 2019 at 8.00am, each ordinary
share in the Company will therefore have a nominal value of 0.1
pence per share.
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the
New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM with admission
("Admission") expected to occur on or around 8 July 2019.
Total Voting Rights
The number of New Ordinary Shares in issue remains 680,767,504
which is unchanged from the number of Existing Ordinary Shares. The
Deferred Shares will have no value or voting rights and
shareholders will not be issued with a share certificate in respect
of the Deferred Shares.
Following Admission of the New Ordinary Shares, the total issued
share capital of the Company will consist of 680,767,504 ordinary
shares, each with voting rights. The Company does not hold any
Ordinary Shares in treasury. The total number of voting rights in
the Company will, therefore, be 680,767,504 and this figure may be
used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by
which they will determine if they are required to notify their
interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of
the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
Further information on the resolutions was included in the
Notice of AGM circular published on 5 June 2019 and available on
KEFI's website at www.kefi-minerals.com.

Notes to Editor
KEFI Minerals plc
KEFI is focused primarily on the advanced Tulu Kapi Gold Project
development project in Ethiopia, along with its pipeline of other
projects within the highly prospective Arabian-Nubian Shield. KEFI
targets that production at Tulu Kapi generates cash flows for
capital repayments, further exploration and expansion as warranted
and, when appropriate, dividends to shareholders.
KEFI Minerals in Ethiopia
Ethiopia is currently undergoing a remarkable transformation
both politically and economically.
The Tulu Kapi gold project in western Ethiopia is being
progressed towards development, following a grant of a Mining
Licence in April 2015.
The Company has now refined contractual terms for project
construction and operation. Estimates include open pit gold
production of c. 140,000oz pa for a 7-year period. All-in
Sustaining Costs (including operating, sustaining capital and
closure but not including leasing and other financing charges)
remain c. US$800/oz. Tulu Kapi's Ore Reserve estimate totals 15.4Mt
at 2.1g/t gold, containing 1.1Moz.
All aspects of the Tulu Kapi (open pit) gold project have been
reported in compliance with the JORC Code (2012) and subjected to
reviews by appropriate independent experts.
A Preliminary Economic Assessment has been published that
indicates the economic attractiveness of mining the underground
deposit adjacent to the Tulu Kapi open pit, after the start-up of
the open pit and after positive cash flows have begun to repay
project debts. An area of over 1,000 square kilometres adjacent to
Tulu Kapi has been reserved for exploration by KEFI upon
commencement of development, with a view to adding satellite
deposits to development and production plans.
KEFI Minerals in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
In 2009, KEFI formed G&M in Saudi Arabia with local Saudi
partner, ARTAR, to explore for gold and associated metals in the
Arabian-Nubian Shield. KEFI has a 40% interest in G&M and is
the operating partner.
ARTAR, on behalf of G&M, holds over 20 EL applications. ELs
are renewable for up to three years and bestow the exclusive right
to explore and to obtain a 30-year exploitation (mining) lease
within the area.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has announced policies to encourage
minerals exploration and development, and KEFI Minerals supports
this priority by serving as the technical partner within G&M.
ARTAR also serves this government policy as the major partner in
G&M, which is one of the early movers in the modern resurgence
of the Kingdom's minerals sector.
