Ground analysis will commence forthwith in order to refine the locations of first drill targets. We anticipate being able to announce the commencement of drilling shortly.
Our geologists, Terra Search, have excellent relations in the area having worked for both Newcrest and Geatland Gold. Accordingly, the exploration will be based out of the Terra Search camp at Newcrest's Telfer mine some 13km from Red Setter.

"With silver becoming increasingly in demand with the climate change agenda initiatives, the silver potential is exceptional here at Cottesloe. This project is a very exciting new acquisition for Wishbone. The acquisition of this project more than doubles our tenement size in the exciting Patersons Range region of Western Australia. We see the potential for Cottesloe to host both precious metals and base metals as very high, based on historic data available through the Western Australian Government archives. The Company is well placed to move quickly on the due diligence process on Cottesloe, having recently completed the acquisition of our three other tenements in the same area. Technical and legal due diligence is underway and further updates will be advised as soon as they become available."
Wishbone Gold Plc, the London listed precious metals trading and exploration company, advises that it has signed an exclusive deal to acquire 100% ownership of the 92.19 square kilometres Cottesloe Project in the Patersons Range region of Western Australia (the "Cottesloe Project"). This proposed acquisition will more than double Wishbone's exposure in the well-endowed gold province of the Patersons, increasing Wishbone's tenement holding to 159 km2 from 67 km2

The highest priority magnetic bodies within Red Setter (Referred to as Targets A, B and C in Figure 1) cover an expanded area of 3.5 km in strike length and 1 km in width. The highest order Target A occurs over a strike length of 1500m with a width of 400m and occurs within 50-75m of surface. Results of this modelling shows several north plunging magnetic bodies within this anomaly of equivalent susceptibility (possibly pyrrhotite alteration) to that evident at both Newcrest Mining and Greatland Gold's Havieron and RioTinto's Winu discoveries.
Larger and starts closer to the surface. Havieron material to be processed at Telfer - Havieron avarage 0.67 cu - 3.8 au - even relatively avarage grades struck at red setter will produce a similar in ground value to Havieron given red setter target A is slightly larger

Highlights:
· 3D inversion of the Red Setter ultra-detailed magnetics has delineated 3 highly magnetic bodies over an expanded area now covering 3km x 1km.
· Largest individual priority 1 magnetic target has a 1500m strike length with a width of 400m and starts at around 75m from surface.
· Magnetic survey reveals that all magnetic targets are much shallower than 150m-250m depth previously modelled.
· The relatively shallower target depth is strongly advantageous both from an exploration and future development potential perspective.
· The Red Setter Project is located 13km south-west of Newcrest Mining's Telfer Gold-Copper Mine and 60km west of Newcrest and Greatland Gold's Havieron discovery.

Wishbone Gold Plc (AIM: WSBN, AQSE: WSBN), today announces that its Program of Works ("POW") for Red Setter has been approved by the Western Australian Government's Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety ("DMIRS"). This includes the drilling program outlined in an earlier RNS for up to 100 drill holes to depths of 300 metres that are designed to test for potential gold and copper mineralisation on multiple magnetic targets identified on the Red Setter Project over a 3km2 area.
Ground analysis will commence forthwith in order to refine the locations of first drill targets. We anticipate being able to announce the commencement of drilling shortly.
Our geologists, Terra Search, have excellent relations in the area having worked for both Newcrest and Geatland Gold. Accordingly, the exploration will be based out of the Terra Search camp at Newcrest's Telfer mine some 13km from Red Setter.
Richard Poulden, Wishbone Gold's Chairman, commented, "It is incredibly exciting to be finally moving onto the ground at Red Setter. We will keep the market updated as we go. This premium priced placing, also announced today will ensure that the Company is well funded to achieve its exploration objectives in Australia through 2021."
"With silver becoming increasingly in demand with the climate change agenda initiatives, the silver potential is exceptional here at Cottesloe.

Greatland Gold plc is a London Stock Exchange AIM-listed (AIM:GGP) natural resource exploration and development company with a current focus on precious and base metals.
The Company's flagship asset is the world class Havieron gold-copper deposit in the Paterson region of Western Australia. This asset is held in joint venture with Newcrest Mining Ltd. Havieron is located approximately 45km east of Newcrest's Telfer gold mine, processing plant and existing infrastructure.
Commencement of the decline to develop the Havieron orebody commenced in May 2021. In addition, a substantial ongoing growth drilling programme is presently underway at Havieron which is being undertaken in conjunction with the preparation of a Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS"). The PFS is expected to be released in late calendar 2021.
The Joint Venture Agreement includes tolling principles reflecting the intention of the parties that, subject to positive decision to mine, the resulting joint venture mineralised material will be processed at Telfer.
Greatland is seeking to identify large mineral deposits in areas that have not been subject to extensive exploration previously. It is widely recognised that the next generation of large deposits will come from such under-explored areas and Greatland is applying advanced exploration techniques to investigate a number of carefully selected targets within its focused licence portfolio.

Chesterfield Resources is a copper-focussed exploration company with a project in Cyprus and the proposed new Adeline copper project in Labrador Canada, contingent, among other things, upon the publication of a prospectus. In December 2020, Polymetal International, the FTSE100 mining group, took a 23% strategic investment in Chesterfield via a placing of new shares. Upon completion of the acquisition of the project in Labrador, Altius will similarly become a strategic partner, with a 10% holding in the Chesterfield, and a 20p warrant over a further 10% of the company.
The exploration team is led by two veteran industry geologists Neil O'Brien, formally SVP Exploration & New Business Development, Lundin Mining, and Dave Cliff, previously Head of Exploration Europe, Rio Tinto.
In Cyprus the company holds the largest mineral exploration licence area of any operator on the island.
CHAIRMAN OF FTSE GOLD INDEX COMMITTEE TO JOIN WISHBONE BOARD
Wishbone Gold Plc (AIM: WSBN), the London listed precious metals trading and exploration company, advises that Mr David (Sam) James Hutchins, age 60, has agreed to join the board as a non-executive director effective on the date of this announcement.
Mr Hutchins is a highly experienced gold specialist and natural resources fund manager, having previously run various funds at M&G Group Plc and several other UK commodity focused funds over the years.
He is currently the Chairman of the FTSE Gold Mines Index Committee and a Member of the Chartered Institute for Securities & Investments.
Richard Poulden, Wishbone Plc's Chairman, commented,
"We are very fortunate to have Sam join the board of Wishbone. His extensive fund management experience gives him an insight into the structure of many deals which have been concluded across the industry. His knowledge of this and of the global gold industry will add significant value as we move to explore and develop our exciting portfolio of assets."
Commenting on his appointment David Hutchins said,
"I am honoured and excited to be joining the board of Wishbone following the expansion of its gold exploration portfolio in Australia. I look forward to helping the company grow and develop those assets for the benefit of shareholders."
