THUNDERBIRD: Native Title & Project Update

Sheffield Resources Limited ("Sheffield", "the Company") (ASX: SFX) advises that the Full Federal Court of Australia has allocated 8 December 2017 to hear the appeal lodged by the Mount Jowlaenga Polygon #2 claimant group in relation to the good faith decision by the National Native Title Tribunal (NNTT) which found in favour of Sheffield (good faith decision).

The positive good faith decision on 22 May 2017 was prior to the substantive Native Title determination by the NNTT supporting the grant of the mining lease for the Thunderbird Mineral Sands Project (refer ASX announcement 15 June 2017). The Full Federal Court hearing follows the dismissal of an initial appeal made by the Mount Jowlaenga Polygon #2 claimant group to the Federal Court of Australia (refer ASX announcement 22 September 2017).

Sheffield will continue to advise the community and shareholders of further developments as they arise.
