Chairman's Comment

 

Mark Child, Chairman of Condor Resources plc commented:

 

"We have been highly encouraged by work completed by SRK Consulting UK Limited on Condor's La India Project, where we have announced an updated resource to JORC Code of 988,000 oz gold @ 6.4 g/t of which 290,000 @ 7.6 g/t is in the indicated category and 698,000 @ 6.0 g/t is in the inferred category. Approximately 10 km of epithermal gold veins have been indentified by trenching, rock chip sampling and underground mining, but have yet to be drilled. To realise the full potential of the La India Project, we recognise it is important to accelerate our existing drill programme of 6,500 m, with the aim of proving a 2 million oz gold resource in La India Mining District.

 

We are pleased to introduce Macquarie as a cornerstone investor. Macquarie has a breadth of experience in the mining sector, having provided equity and debt financing for a number of gold companies, including B2Gold who are also active in Nicaragua. Macquarie's investment in Condor Resources is a vote of confidence in the Company and the quality of our assets."
