Thor Energy plc (AIM, ASX: THR, OTCQB: THORF) is pleased to report the signing

Australia.
Highlights:
· Investor to fund A$3.5m to collaborate on ECL's projects and ISR

Alastair Clayton, Chairman, commented:
"We are delighted to report that the investee company ECL has attracted a
significant investment and formed a collaborative partnership with a large
international company that has requested, for commercial reasons, to stay
unnamed for the time being. This agreement gives me great optimism about the
future value of our investment. We look forward to reporting on ECL's progress
at the Kapunda and Alford ISR Copper projects in South Australia."

Corporate Focus Remains on HY-Range
Whilst looking to monetise much of our legacy portfolio, the corporate focus
of Thor Energy remains on its HY-Range natural hydrogen and helium project in
South Australia. The transaction represents a means by which Thor can monetise
