EXPLORATION DRILLING UPDATE



Bauba Platinum is pleased to provide an update regarding
drilling progress on the Central and Northern Clusters of
the Bauba Project, situated on the Eastern Limb of the
Bushveld  Igneous   Complex  in  South  Africa’s  Limpopo
province.

Two drill rigs are currently in operation on the Central
Cluster, drilling boreholes BAU-022 and BAU-024. Merensky
reef has been intersected at a depth of 2 340m on borehole
BAU-022. Logging and sampling of core from these boreholes
is in progress.

The Company currently has one drill rig operating on the
Northern Cluster. The first borehole, BAU-040, has been
completed, and a second hole, BAU-041 is in progress.
BAU-040 successfully intersected the Merensky and UG2 Reefs
at depths of 1 792m and 2 272m respectively. The assay
results for this borehole have revealed 3PGE+Au grades of
6.15g/t over a width of 3.90m on the Merensky reef and
6.25g/t over a width of 1.20m on the UG2 reef.

Grant Pitt, Chief Executive Officer of Bauba Platinum,
commented: “The results from BAU-040 are particularly
pleasing with encouraging channel widths and the assayed
grades being better than initially expected. This gives us
confidence in our planned drilling programme.”
