First three holes (SRC174-176) drilled since the Lord Nelson Mine closed (2010), targeting primary zone shoots below the open pit, all intercept a wide zone of high-grade gold mineralisation. High grade gold results on wide spaced drilling (80m x 50m spacing). The newly intersected gold mineralisation highlights the significant potential in primary zone below Lord Nelson pit, which remains open in all directions. Mineralisation style and geological setting is identical to that of the Lord Nelson deposit. Further assays are pending from a further five holes from deeper drilling testing fresh rock below the Lord Nelson pit and will be released as and when available. Mineralisation now confirmed to extend at depth below the pit in addition to, also remaining open ~200m along strike to the south of the Lord Nelson pit, with recent results. The Lord Nelson target is analogous to depth extensions demonstrated for many other major Yilgarn orogenic gold deposits. Alto's Sandstone Gold Project covers +800km2 and comprises the vast majority of the highly prospective and under-explored Sandstone Greenstone Belt.

MDI notes that there was no disclosure of the timing of the shareholder approval of the proposed placement to AME's Chair. AME announced its intention to do so on 6 May 2019 and, in accordance with ASX's Listing Rules, AME shareholders are required to approve this placement before it can proceed. AME has not, as of the date of this announcement, called a meeting of shareholders to approve this issue or provided any further update on this matter. The capital structure of AME is central to MDI's decision-making process in relation to the offer and MDI reserves the right, but is not under any obligation, to extend the takeover offer to the Shortfall Shares and/or any new AME shares issued to the AME Chair.

Following consultation with ASX, ASX has now advised the Company that the New Shares will be quoted under avseparate code (ASX:AMENA) and the options attached to the New Shares will be under a separate code (ASX:AMEAJ) until the earlier of: Middle Island withdrawing the takeover offer; 5pm (AWST) on 28 June 2019 or such later date if the offer period for Middle Island's takeover offer is further extended by MDI; and The date on which MDI announces that the takeover will extend to the New Shares, following receipt of ASIC relief to extend the takeover offer to the New Shares, at which point Alto will apply to the ASX to have the New Shares quoted under the "˜AME' ticker code. Any options exercised under the code "˜AMEAJ' will be issued shares under the code "˜AMENA' until such time as the New Shares are quoted under the "˜AME' ticker code. The company anticipates that its shares under the AME ticker code will recommence at market open on 6 June 2019.

The company requests an extension of its voluntary suspension to provide an update on the shortfall placement shares in relation to the current takeover from Middle Island Resources. Middle Island has still not advised if they will be extending the takeover offer of the shortfall placement shares to those new shareholders and if so when this will be done. Alto expects that the suspension will end on the earlier of the commencement of normal trading on Friday 7 June 2019 or when an announcement in relation to the above is released to the market.

The percentage and number of acceptances quoted in its announcement earlier today were incorrect. The percentages and numbers quoted were based on incomplete information provided to the Company in relation to the acceptances received. Alto however still notes that, after four weeks, there has only been a 1.5% acceptance of the Offer from Middle Island Resources.

In the absence of a further extension, Middle Island's takeover offer for all of the shares in the Company as at the record date of 16 April 2019 is now scheduled to close at 5.00pm AWST on 28 June 2019. The directors continue to recommend that shareholders reject the Middle Island offer by taking no action.

Middle Island Resources Limited advises that it has extended the offer period for the offer. The offer is now scheduled to close at 5pm (WST) on 28 June 2019 or such later date to which the offer period is extended.

Middle Island Resources Limited would like draw two matters, which MDI is currently reviewing, to the attention of investors. It appears to MDI that some of the Shortfall Shares were issued contrary to the terms of the Prospectus, in that some appear to have been issued to Eligible Parties, as defined in the Prospectus. If so, the defeating condition of the Offer set out in Section 9.10(h) of MDI's Bidder's Statement has been triggered and MDI reserves its right to rely on the trigger of this defeating condition to allow the Offer to either lapse or to apply for ASIC consent to withdraw the Offer. If the Offer does lapse or ASIC consents, on application by MDI, to the withdrawal of the Offer, no MDI Shares will be issued to any AME shareholder under the Offer and, accordingly, all AME shareholders will retain their AME shares. In the interim, the MDI Offer remains open. MDI stresses that AME was, or should have been, aware of the consequences of issuing the Shortfall Shares by the terms of the Offer and record date which were clearly stated in the Bidder's Statement. The suggestion that AME's suspension was of MDI's making is refuted.
