“This is a significant opportunity for existing shareholders to increase their participation in upcoming drill
programmes at the Company’s emerging Commonwealth project, where we will start drilling in June, as well as
at our Broken Hill copper-nickel-PGM project. Both projects have already delivered exceptional high grade
drill results that require follow up work as well as numerous new drill targets from our ongoing work.”
“I believe the targets we are going to drill have exceptional merit and I will be taking up my full allocation of
shares.”
Purpose of the capital raising
In 2016 Impact made a high grade gold-silver discovery at the Silica Hill Prospect at the Company’s 100%

silver; see announcements dated 22 February 2017, 21 April 2017 and 9 May 2017).
Impact has identified numerous targets along trend, at depth and in the surrounding area that require drill
testing. The funds raised from the SPP Offer will be used to help fund a drill programme of up to 3,000 metres
of reverse circulation and diamond drilling to test these targets.
In addition, funds will be used for follow up work including drilling at the high grade Broken Hill coppernickel-PGM project where a recent VTEM survey has identified new targets for follow up work and where
follow up drilling is required at the Red Hill and Platinum Springs Prospects which have returned exceptional
grades of platinum group metals nickel and copper.
