Cobre Limited -- Confirmation of Multi-target Copper District and Commencement of 2023 Drilling Programme

Metal Tiger plc (AIM: MTR, ASX: MTR), the AIM and ASX listed investor in natural resource opportunities, is pleased to note that Cobre Limited ("Cobre") has published assay results from its regional diamond drilling programme completed in late 2022, in addition to the commencement of its 2023 drilling programme at the Ngami Copper Project (NCP) in Botswana.

The 2022 regional drilling programme confirmed notable copper/silver Cu/Ag mineralisation at three targets, and anomalous Cu/Ag at a further two targets.

Cobre has now commenced its 2023 drilling programme at the NCP, with two diamond drill rigs currently drilling a 5,000m programme. A further planned 10,000m drilling programme at Kitlanya West is expected to provide additional Cu/Ag targets for diamond drilling.

Following completion of the placing and closure of the Share Purchase Plan, Metal Tiger will be interested in 53,656,803 shares in Cobre, representing approximately 18.76%.

Michael McNeilly, CEO of Metal Tiger, said:

"This is a very encouraging update from Cobre. The promising drill results provide further confidence in Cobre's exploration approach, with the identification of a number of compelling new targets in the region of the Kalahari Copper Belt. We look forward to further exploration updates following the ongoing drilling programme and upcoming programme at Kitlanya West."
