STARA PLANINA EXPLORATION UPDATE

HIGHLIGHTS

  • All five drill holes intercepted copper and gold mineralisation at Gradiste and Aldinac targets
  • Drilling has confirmed the presence and orientation of copper and gold mineralisation
  • Multiple styles of mineralisation encountered confirming intrusion related geological model
  • Field activities currently underway to identify high-grade zones for follow up drilling campaign

Raiden Resources Limited (ASX: RDN) ('Raiden' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce the encouraging drill results from the maiden drill campaign at Stara Planina1 , in which all five drill holes intercepted anomalous copper and gold mineralisation.

Dusko Ljubojevic, Managing Director of Raiden commented: "Initial drilling at Aldinac and Gradiste within the Stara Planina project has been encouraging, having intercepted copper and gold mineralisation in all initial holes. The drilling has indicated the presence of controlling shears associated with higher grades and will be the focus of the Company's follow up drill program. The Company is in the process of conducting field activities to refine high-grade targets for future drilling."

Drilling results at Stara Planina

The Company received assay results from its maiden drill program, which consisted of five diamond drill holes totalling approximately 1,700m. Drilling targeted chargeability anomalies at depth, previously defined by an induced polarisation ("IP") program completed earlier this year by the Company at its Aldinac and Gradiste targets. The Company is encouraged by these initial results, intercepting anomalous copper and gold mineralisation.

The maiden drill program has provided the Company with a valuable insight into the nature of mineralisation, the distribution of sulphide mineralisation throughout the system and the structural frame work of the target areas. The initial drilling targeted coincident IP and multi-element geochemical anomalies, however the Company remain cognisant that historically the highest-grade mineralisation produced from outcrop samples were located on structures peripheral to the IP anomalies. The Company will refocus its exploration activities to concentrate on these identified high-grade structures present at both Aldinac and Gradiste, as well as continuing to test the IP anomalies along strike and at depth.

The Company has since commenced field activities to identify high-grade zones of mineralisation, prior to a follow up drill campaign.

Notable Intercepts at the Aldinac target

Drilling at Aldinac was focused on a 1.2km coincident geochemical and IP anomaly which served to identify a number of zones of significant alteration and mineralisation. While only the southern 200m of the IP anomaly was tested copper and gold mineralisation was intercepted in all three holes completed, including:

Gold mineralisation appears to be primarily associated with brittle faulting, however a number of mineralisation styles have been recognised with the highest-grade intercept associated with a zone of

intense brecciation and veining. As well as testing the southern extents of the IP target, the Company has identified several other anomalous areas to the North and South (Map 2).

Next steps

Initial interpretations derived from recent drilling, historical trenching and outcrop sampling point to a secondary system, which may be associated with the underlying intrusive system and may prove to be the most attractive target for high-grade mineralisation. The Company's technical teams have commenced field activities to define the structural frame work of these target zones in detail.

The Company will utilise information produced from the field activities to refine targets prior to commencing a follow up drilling campaign.

About Raiden Resources

Raiden Resources Limited (ASX:RDN) is an ASX listed copper—gold focused exploration company focused on the emerging prolific Tethyan metallogenic belt in eastern Europe, focused in Serbia. The Company has signed an Earn-In and Joint Venture Agreement with Rio Tinto in respect to three of its six projects, whereby Rio Tinto can earn a 75% project-level position in the properties via a staged exploration commitment totalling USD$31.5 million in three stages at Rio Tinto's election.

Raiden also retains a 100% interest in the Bor and Pirot project applications and the Zupa property, which the company considers prospective for intrusion-related mineralisation styles including gold, copper and other base metals. The Directors believe that the Company is well positioned to unlock value from this exploration portfolio and be positioned as a fresh ASX listed gold-copper exploration company.

In the period 2003-2004 Rio Tinto performed minor copper exploration in the area. Althoughlimited, this exploration activity was the first to document porphyry, or intrusion related stylepotential of the area, specifically on the Gradiste anomaly. Rio Tinto's work included soil and rocksampling which defined a multi-element Cu/Mo/As +- Au in soil anomaly on the Gradisteprospect.
Further work was also performed by Reservoir Capital Corp ('Reservoir"). Raiden has purchasedthe data sets of the work executed by Reservoir, and the data which is relevant to the targetareas, as defined by Raiden are presented in this release.
The key aspects of the work undertaken by Reservoir included; geological mapping, streamsediment sampling throughout the permit area; A 200x200m spaced soil sampling survey wascompleted, and detailed orientation lines were undertaken, across known mineralizationoccurrences (Gradiste and Aldinac), which were also defined through the stream sedimentsampling program. The results confirm persistent Cu and Mo anomalism covering an area ofabout 2.5 x 0.75km along a NNW structural trend on Gradiste and a Cu/Mo anomaly covering asimilar area on the Aldinac anomaly. Within both of the anomalies, gold is inconsistent butanomalous. The geochemically anomalous area is characterised by alteration (silicification,carbonate), mineralization (quartz veining with sulphides), and ductile deformation. Stockworkquartz veining with malachite staining has been discovered within the granodiorite outcropswhich are present within both of the anomalies.
Furthermore, Reservoir collected surface grab samples throughout the 2 anomalies andconducted road cut-continuous chip sampling, as well as, trenching and sampling on the Gradisteanomaly.
Reservoir also executed a small induced polarisation (IP) program over the norther extent of thehistorical Alin Do mine, which is located on the North Eastern periphery of the Gradiste anomaly.The program was followed up by a short (ca 786m), drill program whose objective was to definethe extensions of the mineralisation within the Alin Do mine. The drilling program failed to defineany significant mineralised zones.

At this time the CP is not certain of the genetic model which is related to the mineralisation andon the Gradiste and Aldinac anomalies. One of the objectives of the initial drilling program is togather further information in order to aid in definition of the genesis of the mineralisation. Fromthe data available at this time, the CP believes that the mineralisation is related to an 'IntrusionRelated Gold +- Au Deposit' model. This hypothesis is supported by the presence of granodioriticintrusions which are located within the anomalous zones. Distinct geochemical footprints alsoprovide further evidence to support the Intrusion Related Mineralisation model, but furtherinvestigation and analysis is required to determine this with more confidence.'
