Notes to editors:

Alecto Minerals plc is an African focussed, gold and base metal exploration company quoted on AIM.

The on-going development of the Kossanto Project in Mali is the Company's predominant focus and with significant value upside potential evident across the tenure, the Board plans to build on the existing independent inferred resource estimate of 247,000 oz Au for Gourbassi reported in accordance with the guidelines of the JORC Code (2012).

The Kossanto Project is located in the centre of the Kenieba inlier in western Mali. The Kenieba inlier is a block of ancient greenstones and granites hosting many significant gold deposits in Senegal and Mali, making it one of the most important gold regions in Africa. The 207 sq. km. Kossanto Project currently comprises the Gourbassi and Massakama target areas located in the west of the licence area, where large-scale artisanal activity is occurring.

Alecto also has a joint venture with Centamin plc over two prospective gold exploration licences in Ethiopia, under which Alecto retains exposure to such assets with no capital expenditure obligations, as well as the wholly owned Wad Amour IOCG Project in Mauritania which is at an exploration stage. Combined, these projects provide the Company with a strong, diversified portfolio with exciting exploration upside potential.
