Triple Plate Junction plc ("TPJ") is incorporated in England & Wales (company registration number 3781581) and is a gold and mineral exploration company operating mainly in Papua New Guinea and Vietnam. TPJ listed on AIM (the Alternative Investment Market) in 2004, having completed a fundraising of £4.2 million.

The company has secured highly prospective exploration areas which have the potential to host world class gold and copper-gold deposits.

TPJ will use its assets to build a significant gold producer, based on continuous identification, assessment, analysis and negotiation of controlling interests in first class gold deposits and areas with exceptional exploration potential.

RE: Newcrest's Q4 2011 Exploration Activities Report

TPJ, the AIM listed gold and copper exploration company in Joint Ventures with three of the world's top four gold miners, is pleased to note the recent report from Newcrest PNG Exploration Limited, a subsidiary of Newcrest Mining Limited, ("Newcrest") on its Q4 2011 exploration activities. Newcrest, the Company's partner in the Manus Island Joint Venture ("JV") in Papua New Guinea ("PNG") and the world's third largest gold company, has provided the Company with the following update:

"Summary

Anomalous gold in soil extensions to the Kisi prospect have been defined with maximum rock float results to 1.1g/t Au. Extensive (25 line km) ridge and spur soil sampling was carried out between the Njekel prospect and Mt Dremsel over the mapped quartz - alunite lithocap. Results are pending. An 11 hole (3000m) helicopter supported core drilling programme is scheduled to commence in early 2012 to test targets at the Kisi low sulphidation epithermal and Arie porphyry Cu- Au prospects.

Exploration Activities during the December 2011 Quarterly Period

The results for the soil sampling carried out over the eastern and western extensions of the Kisi Prospect have been received. The gold in soil anomalism extends to the east and west and is coherent at levels of 100 and 200 ppb Au.

The rock samples of sulphide rich interpreted skarn in the eastern extension area, known as Lulumat, were not anomalous in gold while, quartz veined limestone at Lulumat and Kah reported maximum values of 1.0 g/t Au and 1.1 g/t Au respectively.

Approximately 25 line km of ridge and spur, (50 - 100m spaced soil sampling) was carried out over the quartz - alunite lithocap between Njekel and Mt. Dremsel. Results will be available in due course.

Planned Activities for the March 2012 Quarterly Period

Drill targets have been defined at the Kisi and Arie prospects and comprise:

At the Kisi prospect, eight holes (1600m) ranging in depths from175 to 300m are planned to provide a broad spaced coverage of the more gold in soil anomalous parts of the prospect. The aim of this drilling is to demonstrate potential for a large low sulphidation epithermal system to exist which is capable of hosting a multi-million ounce gold deposit.

At the Arie prospect, three initial holes are planned for 1400m to assess this porphyry Cu-Au target. The targets for these holes are:

1. To confirm the tenor of the mineralization below the previously drilled and interpreted higher grade copper zones.

2. To assess the significant coincident gold - copper - molybdenum soil anomaly at Arie, and

3. To test a conceptual, potassic/porphyry core zone indicated by a large magnetic anomaly located 1000m WNW along strike from the Arie prospect."

A drilling rig and helicopter have now both been procured for the Kisi epithermal gold prospect and the Arie copper-gold porphyry prospect and drilling is expected to commence shortly.

Bill Howell, TPJ's Exploration Director, commented: "Despite the delay in commencement of drilling, the ongoing sampling and mapping programme at the Manus project continues to better define the two drilling targets at Kisi and Arie. Both targets indicate early potential for size and type of mineralization to achieve the thresholds that major companies like Newcrest aim for in new discoveries, namely at least 5Moz of gold or gold equivalent for porphyry type deposits and 3Moz for higher grade gold in epithermal vein or vein replacement type deposits."

Fraser McGee, TPJ's CEO, commented: "The Manus Island JV is part of our ongoing exploration programme across our portfolio which also includes our Morobe JV with Newmont, where drilling has recently commenced at our second target. We look forward to providing further updates on the progress of these projects in the near future."

Mr Bill Howell, as a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and with more than 40 years of relevant experience in mineral exploration, is qualified as the Competent Person under the JORC 2004 Code and the AIM Note for Mining, Oil and Gas Companies 2009. He has reviewed the information contained in this statement and authorized its release.

RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2012



TPJ, the AIM listed gold exploration company focussed on South East Asia, today announces its results for the year ended 31st March 2012.



Highlights:



· Drilling commenced at three of the Company's four joint venture projects



Morobe

· Newmont completed Phase II earn-in three years ahead of contractual deadline

· Initial drilling completed at first two targets

· 13 additional drill targets identified

· Drilling temporarily suspended to allow mapping and sampling programmes to be finalised

Manus Island

· Geo-mag survey completed across entire project area

· Drilling underway at Kisi with 750 metres drilled since April 2012

· Newcrest expected to commence drilling at second target, Arie, during July 2012

Crater Mountain

· Gold Anomaly has completed 9,850 metres of drilling programme

· TPJ elected to reduce its share of project to 8% and take a "free carry" through to bankable feasibility study

Wamum

· Additional AUS$ 550,000 budget approved by Barrick for further fieldwork on existing and new prospects



· £2.2 million fundraising successfully completed in Q3 2011



Tony Shearer, Chairman of TPJ commented:



"The last year has been a very important one for the Company, and much has been achieved. Drilling is taking, or has taken, place on our joint ventures with Newmont, Newcrest and Gold Anomaly. While the results to date at Morobe have not yet produced assay results that indicate a major discovery, Newmont remains committed to the project and the drill programme is expected to last for at least another 3 years. We look forward to providing updates on the ongoing drilling at Manus Island in the coming months and remain confident in the future direction of the Company."
