Thor Energy PLC increases its interest in the Alford East Copper Oxide Project to 80%

Alford East Copper-REE Project, South Australia

The directors of Thor Energy PLC (AIM, ASX: THR, OTCQB: THORF) are very pleased to advise that Thor has fulfilled its Stage 2 expenditure obligations at the Alford East Copper-Gold-REE Project in South Australia. Completing Stage 2 of the earn-in, entitles Thor to increase its interest from 51% to 80% in the copper oxide mineral rights from Spencer Metals Pty Ltd ("Spencer").

Highlights:

§ Thor will acquire a further 29% interest in the Alford East Copper Oxide Project, covering portions of EL6255 and EL6529, taking Thor's interest to 80% (Figure 1) (ASX: 23 November 2020).

§ Spencer received consideration of AUD$250,000 in the form of 9,259,260 fully paid Thor shares issued today at AUD$0.027 per share, being the ASX volume weighted average price ("VWAP") for the previous five trading days, together with 18,518,520 unlisted options, exercisable at AUD$0.30 within the next 5 years (Stage 2 expenditure). The shares were allotted as CHESS Depository Interests ("CDIs"), with admission on the ASX and AIM expected on 10 November 2023. The issue of these securities was approved by shareholders at a General Meeting held on 23 August 2023.

§ Thor will shortly be receiving the ANT geophysical data and interpretation from Fleet Space Technologies, covering the northern part of the Alford East project.

Nicole Galloway Warland, Managing Director of Thor Energy, commented:

"As exploration accelerates at our Alford East Copper-REE Project in collaboration with Fleet Space Technology, Thor is excited to have completed its stage 2 Earn-in resulting in an 80% interest in this highly prospective project. This demonstrates our confidence in the Alford East Project and the value we believe it can bring to the Company.

"We look forward to keeping shareholders updated on the Alford East project, including progress on the ANT Surveys."

The Agreement Structure and Commercial Terms

Under the terms of the November 2020 Agreement, Thor was granted the right to explore for minerals on the agreed portions of the exploration licences (EL6255 and EL6529), and to conduct feasibility and development activities in respect thereto, and via funding expenditure on these activities, earn an interest in oxide minerals of up to 80% over two stages which have now been achieved as follows:

Stage 1: Thor triggered Stage 1 on 17 November 2021, earning 51% interest by funding AUD$500,000 of expenditure. The Company issued the Stage 1 consideration of AUD$250,000 in fully paid Thor shares, at the 5-day ASX VWAP on the date immediately prior to allotment, together with two free attaching options per share issued, exercisable at $0.03 within 5 years from the date of issue (ASX/AIM: 17 November 2021). The exercise of these Stage 1 options has since been amended to $0.30 in accordance with the Company's share capital consolidation of 10:1 effective on 31 August 2023.

Stage 2: Thor has earned a further 29% interest (80% in total) by funding an additional AUD$750,000 of expenditure over a subsequent 2 years and for an additional consideration of AUD$250,000 in fully paid Thor shares, issued at the 5-day ASX VWAP on the date immediately prior to allotment and two free attaching options per share issued, exercisable at AUD$0.30 within 5 years from the date of issue (Stage 2 expenditure).

Upon Thor completing the acquisition of an 80% interest in the project, Spencer will hold a free carried 20% interest until the decision to mine.

Settlement and dealings

Application will be made for the CDIs to be admitted to trading on ASX and AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that Admission will become effective on 10 November 2023. The CDIs will rank pari passu with the Company's existing issued Ordinary Shares.

Total Voting Rights

For the purposes of the UK Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules ("DTRs"), following Admission of the CDIs, Thor will have 278,610,068 ordinary shares in issue with voting rights attached. Thor holds no shares in treasury. The figure of 278,610,068 may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company, under the ASX Listing Rules or the DTRs.

Alford East Project Background

The Alford East Copper-REE Project is located on the Yorke Peninsula, South Australia where Thor holds 80% interest from unlisted Australian explorer Spencer Metals Pty Ltd, covering portions of EL6255 and EL6529 (Figure 1) (ASX/AIM: 20 November 2020). The Alford East project is contiguous with the Alford West Project, operated by EnviroCopper Ltd ("ECL") in which Thor holds a 30% interest. At Alford West, ECL is earning a 75% interest through studies of the In-Situ Recovery potential of copper oxide deposits within the larger Alford Copper Belt.

The Alford Copper Belt is a semi-coherent zone of copper-gold oxide mineralisation, within a structurally controlled, north-south corridor consisting of deeply kaolinised and oxidised troughs within metamorphic units on the edge of the Tickera Granite (Figure 1), Gawler Craton, SA.

Thor completed an inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) by utilising historic drill hole information.

Table A - (ASX/AIM: 27 January 2021):

? 125.6Mt @ 0.14% Cu containing 177,000t of contained copper

? 71,500oz of contained gold

Table A: Alford East Mineral Resource Estimate as of 22 January 2021- Figure 1 (ASX/AIM: 26 January 2021):

Note: MRE reported on oxide material only, at a cut-off grade of 0.05% copper which is consistent with the assumed In-Situ Recovery technique.

REE results were later reported from the 2021 diamond drilling program, with significant drill intercepts (>500ppm TREO[1]) - (ASX/AIM: 26 April 2023) including:

o 21AED005: 36.7m @ 1568ppm (0.16%) TREO & 1.2% Cu from 6.3m,

including 11.8m @ 2095 ppm (0.21%) TREO and 1.2% Cu from 10m, and

11m @ 2088ppm (0.21%) TREO and 0.8% Cu from 47m,

including 2m @ 5042ppm (0.5%) TREO from 47m

o 21AED002: 11.6m @ 1699ppm (0.17%) TREO and 0.26% Cu from 30.4m

including 6.1m @ 2262ppm (0.22%) TREO from 34.0m

o 21AED001: 16.8m @ 1721ppm (0.17%) TREO and 0.5% Cu from 91.4m

The Board of Thor Energy Plc has approved this announcement and authorised its release.

In January 2021, Thor announced an Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate¹. Thor also holds a 30% interest in Australian copper development company EnviroCopper Limited, which in turn holds rights to earn up to a 75% interest in the mineral rights and claims over the resource on the portion of the historic Kapunda copper mine and the Alford West copper project, both situated in South Australia, and both considered amenable to recovery by way of ISR.²³

Thor holds 100% of the advanced Molyhil tungsten project, including measured, indicated, and inferred resources?, in the Northern Territory of Australia, which was awarded Major Project Status by the Northern Territory government in July 2020. Thor executed an AUD$8m Farm-in and Funding Agreement with Investigator Resources Limited (ASX: IVR) to accelerate exploration at the Molyhil Project on 24 November 2022.6

Adjacent to Molyhil, at Bonya, Thor holds a 40% interest in deposits of tungsten, copper, and vanadium, including Inferred resource estimates for the Bonya copper deposit, and the White Violet and Samarkand tungsten deposits. ? Thor's interest in the Bonya tenement EL29701 is planned to be divested as part of the Farm-in and Funding agreement with Investigator Resources Limited.6
