Working Capital Update

Herencia Resources plc

Working Capital Update

The Company confirms that, following prudent cash management and an ongoing working understanding with creditors, it believes its working capital position remains satisfactory until approximately the end of February 2017.

The Directors are in discussions with its major shareholders to provide further funds to meet Herencia's working capital needs and to progress the development of the Picachos copper project. If these funds are not advanced, and if no further source of funds can be found, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to continue to trade.

Further updates will be provided in due course.
