Report on site visit Recently Acquired Mozambique Tenement

Premier African Minerals Limited ("Premier" or the "Company") is pleased to provide this initial update on our recent site visit and preliminary geological review of the Mozambique tenement recently secured, as set out in the announcement of 28 July 2020.

Highlights:

· Extensive current and historic artisanal gold mining activity in the immediate area and extending onto our tenement

· Widespread evidence of eluvial, alluvial and primary gold mineralisation

· Visible gold in multiple locations

George Roach, Chief Executive of Premier commented, "This is very early stage and our geological review conducted over three days in a relatively small area of 90 hectares is encouraging. Based on the artisanal activity, it would be reasonable to conclude that there is potential for some recoverable free gold.

Premier will examine available redundant equipment at RHA Tungsten (Pvt) Pvt ("RHA") that was removed from the RHA process plant at the time the XRT was installed and if suitable, this could be the basis for a small recovery plant to operate in conjunction with the exploration programme that will need to be undertaken. Samples have been collected and assay results will be published as soon as they are received.

I do note that there are potentially very good exploration tenements for gold in a number of other African jurisdictions and Premier will investigate these opportunities".
