ARH & ARL
Annamite Resources Holdings Pte. Ltd. (ARH) is a precious and base metals exploration company incorporated in Singapore in May 2019 with operations in Laos through a Lao subsidiary named Annamite Resources Laos Co., Ltd (ARL).
SOKDEE PROJECT
We acquired a 70% ownership in an exploration project of 80 sq.km under a company named Lao Hyundae Black Stone Co., Ltd (LHBS), and have discovered a highly prospective porphyry copper-gold system named Sokdee.
LMD
A Joint Development Agreement (JDA) with Lao Mining Development State Enterprise (LMD) was signed covering prospective projects in Vientiane province. Annamite is carrying technical due diligence on a number of projects
RIO ON SOKDEE
Annamite & Rio Tinto, a major mining and exploration company with the second largest market capitalization of any mining company, joined forces to explore the Sokdee Project, with Annamite carrying out the current phase of the exploration programme and Rio paying for the exploration costs for last field work season.
VANGMA
After siging an MOU in August 2023 to explore a new property named Vangma covering 148 sq.km on Sokdee’s southern border, we have signed on 29 March 2024 a Joint Venture Agreement (JVA) withDouangchaleun Development Construction Sole Co., Ltd.

ANNAMITE RESOURCES STRATEGIC PILLARS
OUR STRATEGY
Our strategy is acquiring a good quality portfolio of exploration projects that can be quickly moved to the discovery stage with drilling, i.e., the Project Developer model.
By modern exploration standards, Laos is an underexplored but highly prospective country for the precious and base metal deposit types that Annamite is targeting.
Though modern exploration methods have covered less than 6% of Laos;
The Truongson and Loei Fold Belts which are highly prospective for porphyry and related deposit types comprise 70% of the country.

FOCUSING ON DRILL-READY TARGETS
VENTURE PRIORITIZATION
Prioritize ventures with drill-ready targets that can quickly advance the project up the value curve.
We are now looking to broaden that base during a new round of financing in Q4 2022/Q1 2023, looking at raising about US$3 million. As of early December 2022 we have raised already US$550,000.
Our strategy is to build a quality portfolio of
near drill-ready to drill-ready exploration projects that can be quickly moved to discovery stage with drilling.
Our team members under our Lao-based expatriate Australian Chief Geologist, Paul Burrell, have already established exploration facilities in-country allowing us to operate cost-effectively without the overhead of importing equipment and people.
