Giyani Appoints Chief Metallurgist and Commences Bulk Sampling
and Metallurgical Testing at K. Hill, Botswana
OAKVILLE, ONTARIO – July 10, 2017 – Giyani Gold Corporation (TSXV:WDG, GR:KT9)
(“Giyani” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the commencement of bulk sampling and
preliminary metallurgical testing at the Company’s K. Hill manganese project (88% interest) in
southern Botswana.
Dr. Ian Flint has been appointed by Giyani as Chief Metallurgist to lead the Company’s metal-
lurgical test program. Dr. Flint is currently on site in Botswana with Giyani’s Project Manager
and Geological team examining the layout of numerous deposits discovered during the field
mapping and reconnaissance sampling program. While in Botswana, Dr. Flint will identify the
key areas for the Company’s bulk sampling and metallurgical program. Giyani anticipates that
this program will greatly enhance its understanding of the mineral deposits within the property
and help focus its efforts on the right spots. Dr. Flint will supervise the mineral processing tests
of the collected samples and the resulting concentrate will subsequently be analyzed by inde-
pendent refining laboratories in Toronto, South Africa, and Germany. The results will provide
the Company with an estimate on the grind size, potential grade and processing recoveries which
will help to identify potential applications and end users for its manganese. Giyani’s on-going
regional mapping and surface sampling program will continue in parallel with this new phase of
bulk sampling and metallurgical testing.
Dr. Flint holds a B.A.Sc. in Geological Engineering and a M.A.Sc. in Metallurgical Engineering
from the University of Toronto and a Ph.D. in Mining and Mineral Processing Engineering from
the University of British Columbia. He has 34 years of experience in both the academic and cor-
porate worlds where he lead successful commercial projects in Canada, USA, Africa, and Asia;
and conducted research and lectured in the Faculty of Engineering at Dalhousie University.
“The appointment of Dr. Flint represents a significant addition to our world class technical team.
He is one of Canada’s leading experts on mineral processing. In particular, Dr. Flint has spent his
recent years focusing on mineral properties that are ideal for use in the making of rechargeable
Li-Ion batteries,” said Wajd Boubou, President. “Giyani’s focus on delivering shareholder value
is fundamental to our planning and execution. The early engagement of one of Canada’s leading
metallurgists to complement our exploration program is a stepping stone to ensure we are pro-
gressing down the right track. Giyani’s ultimate goal is to identify a minable, economic, high
grade manganese deposit that is suitable for specialty markets in the shortest time possible.”
