The Dark Horse Rising

Hi All,

Thought I'd start a new thread that we can all use and discuss DHR's current activities/ future announcements.

Valuation

MCap 32mill (at 2c), 2.25mill cash, $14mill listed investments. EV approx. 15.75 million

Company Investments

Lakes Oil

- DHR owns 35.7% stake in LKO, holdings currently valued at $14 million AUD
- Advanced, drill ready, onshore conventional gas prospects in Victoria
- Also aquired NavGas assets – Roma Shelf, Queensland and Pirie Torrens, Wilkatana Oilfield.
- Court hearing date scheduled for 14 March 2017 vs Vic Govt (expected to take 2-3 days), positive outcome would be a game changer for the company IMO --->  potential to become a Victorian gas producer within 15 months

Dark Horse Energy

- 100% DHR subsidiary
- Focused on renewable and thermal fuel sources
- Advancing Argentina thermal project to tender (600-1200MW)

-Holds 35,000 hectares of exploration licences in San Luis + Cordoba (Argentina) prospective for hard-rock lithium deposits




Las Tapias

- Mined for beryl 1938-1965 with zones up to 80% spodumene and crystals up to 3m long. The spodumene contains extremely high average historical grades of 5.5% Li2O
- 300-400m x 150-200m pegmatite identified, lithium grades up to 5.74% confirmed with recent assays
- 3,000m drilling program scheduled March 2018





El Totoral

- Recent remote sensing program have mapped extensive pegmatites in the area of strike lengths up to 4.5kms

Upcoming News Flows/ SP catalysts

1) El Totoral mapping and sampling update Jan 2018
2) Las Tapias drilling Q1 201
3) El Totoral drilling Q2 2018

IMO great risk/reward at these levels with the right leadership, right metal and strong news-flow across multiple highly prospective projects.
