The second deal, entered with Pit N Portal Mining Services, is for drilling support at RED 5 Limited's Great Western gold mine in Western Australia. Under the agreement, SRG Global will provide production drill and blast services as well as the supply for explosives to uncover mineral deposits. The contract is set for an initial 12-month term.

SRG Global will start both projects immediately.

We are very pleased to have secured these two term contracts, adding to our recurring annuity earnings.

Importantly, the GFG Liberty OneSteel contract is with a repeat customer, providing new services in addition to our existing refractory services term contract.
