ASX RELEASE
11 March 2011
DELINEATION OF COPPER ANOMALY KIHABE/NXUU BASE METALS PROJECT - BOTSWANA
Copper Anomaly
Further to the announcement released to the market on 3 March, the Company is pleased to advise that continuing XRF in-field analysis of closely spaced soil geochemical samples, has confirmed the presence of a significant copper/cobalt anomaly.
These in-field XRF results when joined with those of a previous soil geochemical sampling programme to the east, show that the anomaly has an W/E strike length of 2.4km. It is coincident with an elevated magnetic anomaly and a discrete line of trees (Terminalia). Elevated Cu values recorded were up to 68ppm against a normal background of less than 10ppm and elevated Co values recorded were up to 281ppm. The Company does not have any record of background Co values in this area. Previous drilling in this area has shown that the Kalahari sand cover is about 6m deep.
All samples were collected from 10cm below surface. The in-field XRF results were from samples collected every 50m N/S along sample lines spaced 100m W/E. Samples from the previous eastern programme were collected every 200m N/S along sample lines spaced 200m W/E. In-fill sampling will be now be conducted over the eastern programme.

The copper anomaly is situated some 10km to the NE of the Kihabe Zn/Pb/Ag deposit.
Drilling will be required to determine the resource potential of this anomaly.
Tswee Tswee Anomaly
In field XRF assaying of samples collected from the 9.9 sq. km Tswee Tswee Anomaly (Copper) is now in progress .
