Calidus Resources Announces Further High-Grade Drilling Results Across Warrawoona

Keras Resources plc, the AIM listed mineral resource company, notes the announcement released by Calidus Resources Limited (ASX:CAI) ('Calidus'), which returned significant high-grade drilling results from the St George Shear and Klondyke East prospects. These results highlight the ability to extend Calidus' current Resource area at the Warrawoona Gold project in the Pilbara in Western Australia. The results make up a larger resource infill and extension programme which is aiming to develop Calidus' current 712,000oz resource and support the expected delivery of a pre-feasibility study ('PFS') in 2019.

Keras currently has 458m shares in Calidus, representing approximately 32.3% of the current issued share capital of Calidus. On successful completion of the aforementioned PFS, an additional 265m performance shares of Calidus ('Performance Shares') owned by Keras will be converted into ordinary shares of Calidus.

HIGHLIGHTS

Infill drilling for open-pit resources at the new high-grade gold zone St George, 150m North of the Klondyke Main resource, has returned significant intercepts including:

• 6m @ 7.61g/t Au (incl 1m @ 40.64g/t Au) from 16m in 18SGRC031

• 8m @ 5.64g/t Au (incl 1m @ 11.03g/t Au, 1m @ 13.05g/t Au & 1m @ 10.95 g/t Au) from 44m in 18SGRC032

• 14m @ 1.77g/t Au from 35m in 18SGRC047

• 2m @ 10.23g/t Au (incl 1m @ 18.91 g/t Au) from 91m in 18SGRC050

Klondyke East in-fill drilling has returned the following significant intercepts:

• 2m @ 20.84g/t Au (incl 1m @ 40.51 g/t Au) from 88m in 18KLRC152

• 6m @ 3.82g/t Au from 93m in 18KLRC148

• 15m @ 0.97g/t Au from 97m in 18KLRC172

• 2m @ 7.29g/t Au (incl 1m @ 12.75 g/t Au) from 66m in 18KLRC157

• 1m @ 10.79g/t Au from 2m in 18KLRC158

Russell Lamming, Chief Executive Officer of Keras, commented, "These high grade results from the St George Shear and Klondyke East underpin the prospectivity of the wider Warrawoona Gold Project and the strong potential for the current resource of 712,000oz to be materially increased in the near term. As 60% of the area is yet to be reported on, we look forward to Calidus delivering results of further drilling at the St George Shear prospect as well as the results of an initial diamond drill programme targeting resources beneath the potential open pit at Klondyke."
