Calidus Resources Update

Keras Resources plc, the AIM listed mineral resource company, notes the announcement released by Calidus Resources Limited (ASX:CAI) ('Calidus'), in which it currently holds a c.32.3% interest, regarding an update at the Warrawoona Gold Project in the Pilbara of Western Australia ('Warrawoona' or the 'Project').

Highlights

· Outstanding first assays from the regional drilling programme at Warrawoona

· Shallow, high-grade gold intersected across the Klondyke Shear up to 5km west of the current 1.15Moz Klondyke JORC Resource at Warrawoona

· Significant 4m composite results include:

o 8m @ 8.06g/t Au from 56m in 19TRAC008

o 4m @ 8.87g/t Au from 48m in 19WWWB004

o 4m @ 2.35g/t Au from 44m in 19SGAC003

· Results highlight scope for Resource increase - further assays pending

Russell Lamming, Chief Executive Officer of Keras, commented, "Calidus is reaching a tipping point as it focuses on growing its 1.25 million-ounce JORC resource at Warrawoona, where a Pre-feasibility Study is due for completion in July. Encouragingly, this first-pass regional drilling programme has identified shallow mineralisation up to 5km west from the Klondyke resource on the same geological structure, highlighting the potential for further near-surface gold mineralisation close to the proposed mine development. We look forward to receiving further positive updates in the near future."

Keras currently holds 458 million shares in Calidus, representing approximately 32.3% of the current issued share capital of Calidus. On successful completion of Calidus' Pre-feasibility study, an additional 265 million performance shares of Calidus ('Performance Shares') owned by Keras will be converted into ordinary shares.
