The directors of Thor Mining Plc advise of further significant copper and gold intercepts from the recently completed initial diamond drilling program at the Alford East Copper-Gold Project, SA. The Alford East Copper-Gold Project is located on EL6529, where Thor is earning up to 80% interest from unlisted Australian explorer Spencer Metals Pty Ltd, covering portions of EL6255 and EL6529. The Alford East Project covers the northern extension of the Alford Copper Belt, located on the Yorke Peninsula, SA. The Alford Copper Belt is a semi coherent zone of copper-gold oxide mineralization, within a structurally controlled, north-south corridor consisting of deeply kaolinised and oxidised troughs within metamorphic units on the edge of the Tickera Granite, Gawler Craton, SA. Alford East Diamond Drilling Program Update Nine diamond drillholes totalling 878m are now complete, with assays received for three drillholes - 21AED001, 21AED002, and now 21AED005. This initial program for Thor, focussed only on the northern portion of the Alford East copper-gold deposit around the AE-5 mineralized domains, with drilling targeting areas open at depth and along strike. AE-5 domain is one of eight mineralized domains. For ISR purposes, drilling was limited to the deeply weathered lithological profile, testing the extent of the oxide zone and the depth boundary of the Top of Fresh Rock (TOFR). The copper-gold oxide mineralization is hosted within deeply kaolinised (clay) and metasomatic altered units on the contact between the Olympic Domain Wallaroo Group metasediments and the Hiltaba Suite Tickera Granite, Gawler Craton. Copper oxide mineralogy is dominated by malachite and chalcocite. Drillholes 21AED001, 21AED003 and 21AED005 (Section A-A' 6,256,360mN), were drilled through the central portion of AE-5 MRE Domain, designed to validate the geological model and test areas, open at depth. The high-grade copper and gold intercepts in both 21AED001 and 21AED005, significantly above the MRE cut- off, opens the mineralization up at depth, with 21AED005 highlighting the significant grade uplift along the controlling north-south structure Copper (predominately malachite) and gold mineralization in 21AED005 is hosted within residual friable clays. Assay results from 21AED001, 21AED002 and 21AED005 confirm significant copper and gold grade uplift along the north-south trending controlling structure, validating the new geological model and structural controls on mineralization. Validation and confidence in the geological model is critically important for future drill targeting, as well as resource modelling. The continuation of copper mineralization up to 100m north beyond the MRE AE-5 domain envelope, (21AED002, 21AED006 and 21AED007), confirms mineralization remains opens along strike and the potential for MRE AE-5 to be structural link to AE-8 domain. Remaining drill core is currently being prepared for sample submission to the laboratory, with all assay results anticipated in approximately 4 weeks. Pump testing for initial hydrogeological baseline work forming part of the `proof of concept' for ISR, including water characteristics, porosity, and permeability testing is scheduled for start of September. Preliminary hydrometallurgical studies by Mining and Process Solutions (MPS) on potential lixiviants for copper and gold recovery will commence once ground water samples are received. This work is all co-funded by the SA Government Accelerated Discovery Grant (ADI) of A$300,000.
