Bushranger Copper/ Gold Project Drilling Programme - Progress Update

The Board of Xtract Resources Plc ("Xtract" or the "Company") is pleased to provide a further update regarding progress of the second hole in the Phase One diamond drilling programme at the Racecourse Mineral Resource on the Bushranger porphyry copper-gold exploration project located in the Lachlan Fold Belt ("LFB"), New South Wales, Australia.

Highlights

· Drilling in hole BRDD-21-002 has continued to a current depth of 798.5m, beyond the original planned depth of 750m.

· The hole passed through an altered porphyritic intrusive 'core' over approximately a 60m interval and then back into the marginal alteration halo to the current depth.

· Copper mineralisation in the form of disseminated and fracture-fill chalcopyrite has continued through the lower marginal alteration zone of the porphyry to the current depth, with well-developed chalcopyrite occurring over the last few metres.

· Drilling will continue while the hole remains within the mineralised zone.

Colin Bird, Executive Chairman said: "It is very pleasing that the hole continues within typical porphyry-type mineralisation beyond the planned hole depth. We look forward to further results".

Drilling Background

Hole BRDD-21-002, the second hole of up to six planned holes in the Phase One Drilling Programme at the Racecourse Mineral Resource on the Bushranger Project, is collared over 300m from the previous hole, angled at -80 degrees and is offset from strike with the aim of crossing through the down-plunge extension of the deposit at depth.
