Bluejay Mining plc (formerly FinnAust Mining plc, formerly Centurion Resources plc) is dual listed on the London AIM market and Frankfurt Stock Exchange and primarily focussed on advancing the Dundas Ilmenite Project (previously known as the Pituffik Titanium Project) in Greenland into production in 2018. Dundas has been proven to be the highest-grade mineral sand ilmenite project globally, with an initial Inferred mineral resource of 23.6Mt at 8.8% ilmenite (in situ) reported according to the JORC Code, including a high-grade zone equal to 7.9Mt at 14.2% ilmenite. Crucially significant further upside remains, as the resource forms part of a larger exploration target for the tested area of between 90Mt to 130Mt at an in-situ grade of between 6.3% and 8.4% ilmenite. While this exploration target is conceptual in nature, at the time of its definition there was insufficient exploration to estimate a mineral resource and it was uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a mineral resource. This remains the case at the time of writing, although the pending results of the 2017 exploration programme will result in its reappraisal. Furthermore, the mineral resource area covers just ~17% of the raised beach area and is only one of the following three main target areas situated along an >40km coastline.

Chesterfield has considerable flexibility in how it would be able to finance the consideration for the Acquisition, which may include a proportion of the Company's cash resources together with the potential to incur indebtedness and/or to issue additional shares, whether to raise additional cash or as transaction consideration.

M.P. Evans Group PLC (formerly Rowe Evans Investments PLC) completed its merger with Bertam Holdings PLC and Lendu Holdings PLC on 2 February 2005. The enlarged Group's assets consist of oil palm and rubber plantations (both majority and minority held) in Indonesia and Malaysia, the latter with real-estate development value, and beef-cattle interests in Australia. The Group's strategy is to exit from its plantation investments in Malaysia within the next five or so years. These assets have, in varying degrees, considerable real-estate value due to their proximity either to the North-South Highway or to conurbations. However, the earnings derived from them are modest and, in the board's view, the time has come when they should be disposed of as and when acceptable prices can be achieved. It is the board's intention to undertake a substantial expansion in Indonesian plantation ventures which should achieve higher returns and will supplement the existing portfolio of majority and minority-held plantation investments in that country.
