Altus Strategies Plc

("Altus" or the "Company")

Expiry of Terms Sheet with Indiana Resources

Altus Strategies Plc (AIM: ALS & TSX-V: ALTS), the Africa focused project and royalty generator, announces the expiry of the extension period that had been granted to ASX-listed Indiana Resources Ltd ("Indiana") in respect of a potential Joint Venture ("JV") on the Company's Lakanfla and Tabakorole gold projects ("Projects").

Lakanfla is located 6km southeast of the Sadiola gold mine in western Mali and Tabakorole is located approximately 100km southwest of the Morila gold mine in southern Mali. Historical drilling has returned reported intercepts of 26.0m at 5.10 g/t Au and 12.0m at 9.78 g/t Au at Lakanfla and 16m at 9.31 g/t Au, 14m at 9.84 g/t Au and 60m at 2.91 g/t Au at Tabakorole.

As a result of the expiry, the Company is now unrestricted from entering discussions with third parties in respect of a potential JV on the Projects.

Steven Poulton, Chief Executive of Altus, commented:

"Our Lakanfla and Tabakorole gold projects in Mali offer exceptional exploration potential. Opportunities to secure assets which are as prospective and in proximity to existing tier-one gold deposits are incredibly limited. These characteristics are reflected in the high level of interest Altus has received from third parties across our pipeline of gold projects in Mali. As such, while we are disappointed that it has not been possible to conclude the proposed deal with Indiana on Lakanfla and Tabakorole, we are very confident that one or more alternative transactions can be advanced. We will now open discussion to third parties and I look forward to updating shareholders on our progress in due course."

Cautionary note regarding historical data

Readers are cautioned that the data on Lakanfla and Tabakorole as referred to in this written disclosure is historical exploration data that has not been verified by a Qualified Person. Not all historical samples are available and Altus does not have complete information on the quality assurance or quality control measures taken in connection with the historical exploration results, or other exploration or testing details regarding these results. There has been insufficient exploration to define a current resource and the Company cautions that there is a risk further exploration will not result in the delineation of a current mineral resource. The historical data should therefore not be relied upon until the Company can confirm it.
