Notes to editors:

Stratex International Plc is an AIM-quoted exploration and development company focussing on gold and base metal opportunities in Turkey, East Africa, and West Africa.

Stratex - Turkey Portfolio

In Turkey, Stratex is moving to gold production at the Inlice project through its partnership with its Turkish partner NTF. Altıntepe is also targeted to go into production through a joint venture with Turkish partner Bahar Madencilik, subject to outcome of an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) and technical studies. The Company also remains focused on discovering and developing new projects through low-cost exploration, adding maximum value prior to optioning/joint venturing or selling on to a dedicated mining company. 

·; Total resources stand at approximately 2.26 million oz of gold (combined oxide and sulphide gold) and 7.1 million oz of silver, on a global resource basis

·; Partnership with NTF, a technically capable Turkish company, to rapidly develop the 59,600 oz gold reserve at the Inlice project

·; Partnership with Turkish company Bahar Madencilik to advance development of the 490,000 oz Altintepe oxide-gold project in northern Turkey to production

·; An option/joint venture agreement with Centerra Exploration B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of Centerra Gold Inc., to explore and develop the Öksüt project, a high-sulphidation gold discovery located in Central Anatolia. Resources here were recently expanded to 1,047,871 oz Au in Ortaçam and Ortaçam North zones at a cut-off grade of 0.2 g/t Au.

·; A further option/joint venture agreement with Centerra Exploration B.V. to explore the multiple high-sulphidation alteration zones of the Altunhisar project in Central Anatolia

·; An option/joint venture agreement over the Hasancelebi project, a high-sulphidation gold project in central Turkey with Teck Madencilik Sanayi Ticaret A.S., a Turkish subsidiary of Teck Resources Limited of Canada, a major shareholder in Stratex

·; Exploration agreement with Antofagasta to explore Turkey for porphyry copper and other copper deposit-types that will be vested into an established JV 

Stratex East Africa Ltd ('SEA') - Ethiopia and Djibouti Portfolio 

·; A joint venture with Centamin plc to (i) evaluate the prospective 37 sq km Shehagne gold project in Ethiopia (Stratex has 60% of the project), and (ii) explore targets in northern Ethiopia on a 70:30 joint venture basis.

·; Berahale EEL covers an area of 1,107.44 sq km in northern Ethiopia and is prospective for gold and base metals

·; Multiple low-sulphidation vein systems recently discovered in the Blackrock EEL with bonanza gold values up to 34.6 g/t Au and 60.4 g/t in outcrop

·; 3,765 sq km land position over new epithermal gold discovery and multiple related gold targets in the Afar Depression of eastern Ethiopia and Djibouti

·; Stratex International has signed a binding Heads of Agreement with Thani Ashanti, an AngloGold Ashanti Limited joint venture company, to fast-track development of the first 10 prospects identified within the Afar Depression (collectively the 'Afar Project'). Thani Ashanti can earn 51% of the Afar Project by spending US$3 million on exploration and development over two years. Recent results from the scout drilling programme at Megenta have confirmed epithermal gold mineralisation 

Stratex interest in West Africa 

Stratex has acquired the entire issued share capital of former private company Silvrex Limited (renamed Stratex West Africa Ltd), including its gold portfolio in Senegal, where the Company is now earning-in to an eventual 75% of an exploration licence in the highly prospective Kédougou-Kenieba area. The portfolio also includes four exploration licences acquired in Mauritania.
