Death of Cameroon's Mining Minister

 

Oriole Resources PLC, the AIM-quoted gold exploration company focussed on West
Africa, reports that Cameroon's Minister of Mines, Industry and Technological
Development, Gabriel Dodo Ndoke, passed away suddenly in the early hours of

Ndoke's family, friends and colleagues during this difficult time.

Notes to Editors:

 

Oriole Resources PLC is an AIM-listed gold exploration company, operating
in West Africa. It is focussed on early-stage exploration
in Cameroon, where the Company has recently reported a maiden Resource of
305,000 oz Au in the JORC Inferred category at the Bibemi project and has
identified multi-kilometre gold and lithium anomalism within the
district-scale Central Licence Package project. At the more advanced Senala
gold project in Senegal, IAMGOLD is the operator and has the option to
spend US$8 million to earn a 70% interest. Under the terms of the Option
Agreement, IAMGOLD has recently met its first commitment by spending US$4
million within an initial four years and will shortly acquire a 51% interest
in Senala. The Company also has several interests and royalties in companies
operating in East Africa and Turkey that could deliver future cash flow.
