Primary crusher delivered to site
Berkeley Energia ("Berkeley" or "the Company") is pleased to
announce a key milestone in the construction of the Salamanca mine
following the delivery of the primary crusher to site.
The crusher is the major piece of processing equipment for the
operation and its arrival marks a significant milestone for the
Company as it has progressed from the development phase to the
construction phase. The construction and commissioning phases are
estimated to be completed during the second half of 2018.
The 400 tonne per hour crusher was manufactured by Sandvik Group
in Finland, one of the world's leading suppliers and was one of the
long lead items included in the use of proceeds from the equity
raise completed in Q4 2016.

Managing Director Paul Atherley commented:
"The arrival of the crusher marks a significant milestone during
the current construction phase for the Salamanca mine, the only
major uranium mine in construction in the world today.
The mine will be one of the world's lowest cost and one of the
ten largest producers when in production.
There are currently some 70 staff and contractors at site. This
number will quickly ramp up as construction continues. We are
encouraged by the local support and continue to recruit heavily
from the local community and are delighted that people we have
trained are now being offered employment."
