Interim Results

Chairman's statement

Wishbone Gold has pleasure in announcing its interim results for the period ended 30 June 2021. Shareholders are reminded that these results are unaudited and based on the Company's management accounts.

Throughout the period the Company continued its expansion in exploration, predominantly in Patersons Range area of Western Australia. We consolidated the Red Setter acquisition together with the two smaller properties, Golden Retriever and Short Haired Pointer and announced the optioning of the Cottesloe Project in March. All of the options have been exercised covering all of these acquisitions and by the year end all of the properties will have been transferred into our Western Australia subsidiary.

Looking back, we can now say that we have acquired a massive acreage in one of the hottest exploration areas in Australia. Hardly a day passes without further news of drilling and expansion from major players in the area and I am pleased to say that your company is right in the middle of all this activity.

Although exploration has not proceeded as fast as we would have liked due to COVID and standard Western Australian Government permitting delays, we will have the results of the previously announced Geochem survey on Red Setter shortly. This will then be used to refine the drilling program.

In Queensland we had further excellent results from the Wishbone II property and in August announced a southern extension to the property which expands the total acreage to 174 km(2) .

In January we announced the raising of a further GBP1,034,663 from the exercise of warrants and in May the raising of GBP1,400,000 with a further share placing. This brought our cash and equivalents at the end of the period to just over US$5m. This leaves us in a very strong cash position to execute the exploration programs we have planned.

In February, David Hutchins joined the board as a non-executive director, and we welcome his industry knowledge and experience.

We continue our exploration programs in Western Australia and Queensland as rapidly as regulation and permissions allow. We will make further announcements on results as soon as we are able to do so.

I am grateful to our loyal shareholders for their patience and support.
