TANGO APPOINTS BLUEDUST AS OENA MINING CONTRACTOR
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA — 10 October 2017 – Tango Mining Limited (“Tango” or the “Company”)
(TSXV:TGV) is pleased to announce it has entered into a Contract Mining and Diamond Recovery Agreement (the
“Agreement”) with Bluedust 7 Proprietary Limited (“Bluedust”) at Oena Diamond Mine (“Oena”), South Africa.
Bluedust will develop the Oena alluvial diamond mine using Bourevestinik X‐ray machines (“BVX”) and/or pan plants
(the “Mining Services”). Bluedust, at its own cost and expense, will provide and maintain all the Plant and Equipment
as required to perform the Mining Services.
The diamonds produced by Bluedust at Oena will be sold via a designated Tender Facility in South Africa and 75% of
the gross income of net diamond sales, less commission, will be paid to Bluedust for the duration of the 60‐month
contract. For any individual stones recovered with a gross selling price, less commission, of greater that US500,000
Bluedust will be paid 70% of the gross income.
Bluedust specialize in the processing of alluvial diamond deposits in South Africa. Oena consists of an 8,800‐hectare
mining right and corresponding infrastructure and all associated processing equipment located along the Orange River
in a well‐established alluvial diamond‐mining province known to produce high quality and large sized diamonds.
The Agreement is subject to due diligence by Bluedust which must be completed by 31 December 2017. During this
period Bluedust will conduct a site investigation to determine mineability and diamond bearing potential of the
gravels at Oena. This could include trial mining using BVX and other equipment as necessary.
The Agreement does not affect Tango’s existing agreement with Consulmet to operate the equipment of TML
Equipment Solutions (Pty) Ltd as previously announced (see news release dated 21 July 2017).
On behalf of the Board of Directors of Tango Mining Limited

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and undue reliance should not be placed on them.
Such forward‐looking statements necessarily involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause the

the actual revenues will be less than projected; risks that the target production for the existing mining contracts will be
less than projected or expected; risks that production will not commence as projected due to delay or inability to
