African Copper Plc: Cancellation of 500,000 Stock Options
Professor Simukanga is also a director of ZCI Limited as well as ACU and both companies have jointly decided to cancel the options to ensure there are no independence concerns. The options were granted on 14 July 2011 at an exercise price of 3.13 pence per share and none have been taken up to date.
Notes to Editors: African Copper Plc is an AIM and Botswana listed copper producer and exploration company, currently focused on Botswana. The Company's flagship project is the copper producing open pit Mowana Mine. ACU also owns the rights to the adjacent Thakadu-Makala deposit. Both deposits are situated on the highly prospective Matsitama belt, located close to Botswana's second largest city, Francistown, in the north-eastern part of the country.
