About Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (JOGMEC) and the JV
關於日本石油、天然氣和金屬國家公司(JOGMEC)和合資企業
JOGMEC is a Japanese government independent administrative agency which among other things seeks to secure stable resource supplies for Japan. JOGMEC has a strong reputation as a long term, strategic partner in mineral projects globally. The mandated areas of responsibilities within JOGMEC relate to oil and natural gas, metals, coal and geothermal energy. JOGMEC facilitates opportunities with Japanese private companies to secure supplies of natural resources for the benefit of the country's economic development.
JOGMEC是日本政府的獨立行政機構，其主要任務是確保日本穩定的資源供應。JOGMEC作為全球礦產項目的長期戰略合作伙伴而享有盛譽。JOGMEC的授權職責領域涉及石油和天然氣、金屬、煤炭和地熱能源。JOGMEC促進了與日本私營公司的機會，以確保自然資源的供應，從而造福於日本的經濟發展。
Rare earths are of critical importance to Japanese industrial interests and JOGMEC has extensive experience with all aspects of the sector. JOGMEC provided Lynas with US$250,000,000 in loans and equity in 2011 to ensure supplies of the Light Rare Earths metals suite to the Japanese industry.
稀土對日本的工業利益至關重要，JOGMEC在該行業的各個方面都有豐富的經驗。JOGMEC於二零一一年向Lynas提供250,000,000美元貸款及股權，以確保向日本業界供應輕稀土金屬套件。
The Company currently owns a 95% interest in the Lofdal project with the remaining 5% held for the benefit of historically disadvantaged Namibians. The terms of the JOGMEC joint venture agreement with the Company stipulate that JOGMEC provides $3,000,000 in Term 1 and $7,000,000 in Term 2 to earn a 40% interest in the Lofdal project. Term 3 calls for a further $10,000,000 of expenditures to earn an additional 10% interest. JOGMEC can also purchase another 1% for $5,000,000 and has first right of refusal to fully fund the project through to commercial production and to purchase all production at market prices. The collective interests of NMI and historically disadvantaged Namibians cannot be diluted below a 26% carried working interest upon payment of $5,000,000 to JOGMEC for the dilution protection. The JV Agreement is structured such that no NMI equity will be issued and it is totally non-dilutive to NMI shareholders. To date, JOGMEC, has funded Term 1 and 2 expenditures totaling $6,600,000.
該公司目前在Lofdal項目中擁有95%的權益，其餘5%的權益是為歷史上處於不利地位的納米比亞人的利益而持有的。JOGMEC與公司的合資協議條款規定，JOGMEC在第一期提供300萬美元，在第二期提供700萬美元，以賺取洛夫達爾項目40%的權益。條款3要求再增加1000萬美元的支出，以賺取額外10%的利息。JOGMEC還可以以500萬美元的價格再購買1%的股份，並有權優先拒絕為該項目提供全額資金，直至商業化生產，並以市場價格購買所有產品。在向JOGMEC支付500萬美元用於稀釋保護後，NMI和歷史上處於不利地位的納米比亞人的集體利益不能稀釋到26%的附帶工作權益以下。合營協議的結構將不會發行任何NMI股權，且對NMI股東完全不具攤薄作用。到目前為止，JOGMEC已經為第一和第二期支出提供了總計660萬美元的資金。

Heavy Rare Earths: The Lofdal Dysprosium-Terbium Project is the Company's most advanced project being fully permitted with a Mining Licence (ML 200) issued in 2021. The project is being developed in joint venture with Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation ("JOGMEC") to provide a sustainable supply of heavy rare earths to Japan, most notably dysprosium and terbium.
重稀土：這個洛夫達爾鏑-鋱項目該公司最先進的項目是否獲得了2021年頒發的採礦許可證(ML 200)的全面許可。該項目正在與日本石油、天然氣和金屬國家公司(JOGMEC)合資開發，以向日本提供可持續的重稀土供應，最明顯的是鏑和鋱。
Gold: The Company's Exclusive Prospecting Licenses ("EPLs") prospective for gold are located in the Central Namibian Gold Belt which hosts a number of significant orogenic gold deposits including the Navachab Gold Mine, the Otjikoto Gold Mine and more recently the discovery of the Twin Hills deposit. At the Erongo Gold Project, stratigraphic equivalents to the meta-sediments hosting the recent Osino gold discovery at Twin Hills have been identified and soil surveys are progressing over this highly prospective area. The Grootfontein Base Metal and Gold Project has potential for magmatic copper-nickel mineralization, Mississippi Valley-type zinc-lead-vanadium mineralization and Otjikoto-style gold mineralization. Detailed interpretation of geophysical data and regional geochemical soil sampling have identified first gold targets, with the first targets currently being drill-tested.
黃金：公司的獨家金礦勘探許可證(“EPL”)位於納米比亞中部金礦帶，該地區擁有許多重要的造山帶金礦，包括Navachab金礦、Otjikoto金礦以及最近發現的Twin Hills金礦。在Erongo黃金項目與最近在雙子山發現Osino金礦的變質沉積物相對應的地層已經確定，這一極具遠景的地區正在進行土壤調查。這個Grootfontein賤金屬和黃金項目具有巖漿銅鎳成礦、密西西比谷型鋅鉛釩成礦和大藤式金礦化的潛力。對地球物理數據的詳細解釋和區域地球化學土壤採樣已經確定了第一批金礦目標，第一批目標目前正在進行鑽探測試。
Tantalum-Niobium: The Epembe Tantalum-Niobium-Uranium Project is at an advanced stage with a well-defined, 10 km long carbonatite dyke that has been delineated by detailed mapping and radiometric surveys and over 11,000 meters of drilling. Preliminary mineralogical and metallurgical studies including sorting tests (XRT), indicate the potential for significant physical upgrading. Further work will be undertaken to advance the project to a preliminary economic assessment stage.
鉭鈮：這個Epembe鉭鈮鈾項目該項目已進入後期階段，有一條10公里長的碳酸鹽巖堤壩，已通過詳細的測繪和放射性測量以及超過11,000米的鑽探進行了圈定。初步的礦物學和冶金研究，包括分選試驗(XRT)，表明有可能進行重大的物理升級。將進一步開展工作，使該項目進入初步經濟評估階段。
Copper-Cobalt: The Kunene Copper-Cobalt Project comprises a large area of favorable stratigraphy along strike of the Opuwo cobalt-copper-zinc deposit. Secondary copper mineralization over a wide area points to preliminary evidence of a regional-scale hydrothermal system. Exploration targets on EPLs held in the Kunene project comprise direct extensions of the cobalt-copper mineralization to the west, sediment-hosted copper, orogenic copper, and stratabound manganese and zinc-lead mineralization.
銅-鈷：這個庫內納銅鈷項目包括沿歐普沃鈷銅鋅礦牀走向的大片有利地層。大面積的次生銅礦化表明存在區域規模的熱液系統的初步證據。庫內納項目中EPL的勘探目標包括鈷銅礦向西的直接延伸、沉積物容礦銅、造山銅以及層控錳和鋅鉛礦化。
