The Board of Xtract Resources Plc ("Xtract" or the "Company") announces the preliminary unaudited results for all alluvial and hard rock mining contractors for the Manica Concession, for the three-month period ended 31 March 2022 (the "Period").

Β

Β· Total of 13.22Kg (equivalent to approximately 425 ounces) attributable to Explorator

Β· Value of Explorator share of gold produced US$794,797

Β 

Β 

Colin Bird, Executive Chairman said: "The results for Q1 of this year were satisfactory, especially when one considers that the results were achieved during an aggressive rain and cyclone season. As at today's date, Fair Bride production has started with the introduction of low-grade ore to commission all parts of the processing circuit. We expect that by the end of Q3 Fair Bride should be up to full commercial production. The production will build up gradually as some of the gold gets locked up in the circuit and faults are identified and rectified. I look forward to production results from Fair Bride as well as from the alluvial and the small hard rock deposits ".
