Operational Update


GoldStone Resources Limited (AIM: GRL), the West and Central Africa focused gold exploration company quoted on AIM, is pleased to advise that the auger drilling program at the Homase-Akrokerri Project in the highly prospective Birimian-age Ashanti Gold Belt of West Africa has commenced, with 93 of the planned 120 holes drilled to date.

Highlights:

· Two teams mobilised to conduct 120 hole auger programme

- 93 auger holes completed, remaining 27 holes to be completed shortly

· Multi-purpose reverse circulation ("RC")/diamond drill ("DD") rig will shortly be mobilised on site to test the extensions of the current 602,000 ounce delineated JORC resource

- initial program will comprise up to 2,500m of RC drilling

- rig has the capability to undertake deeper drilling if warranted by the initial results

· Homase-Akrokerri lies 10km from the Obuasi Mine, one of the world's major gold mines, with combined historical and current resource of c.42 million ounces identified to date

The 2015 auger drilling programme identified, amongst other targets, a 1,500m gold-in-regolith anomaly at the AK02 prospect on the Akrokerri licence, immediately south west and along strike of the 602,000 ounce JORC resource Homase-Akrokerri deposit. The Akrokerri licence is contiguous with the licences of Anglo Gold Ashanti's Obuasi Mine and the geology within Goldstone's Homase-Akrokerri Project area is interpreted to be similar to that which hosts the Obuasi mineralisation.

The AK02 prospect has been prioritised for the planned RC drilling programme of up to 2,500m, whilst the ongoing auger programme is designed to evaluate areas of ground between the anomalous zones identified in 2015.

The multi-purpose RC/DD rig contracted from Geodrill Limited will be on site shortly and is expected to commence drilling operations towards the end of September.

The DD capability will enable the Company to follow-up on zones of interest identified by the planned RC drilling and to test higher-grade zones of mineralisation beneath the existing resource.

Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2016

GoldStone (AIM: GRL), the AIM quoted company focused on gold in West and Central Africa, is pleased to announce its interim results for the six month period ended 30 June 2016.

Chairman's Statement

It is with pleasure that I present the interim results for GoldStone as Chairman of the Board. I am pleased to report that following the completion of the fundraise in July and with our new CEO, Emma Priestley, firmly in the driving seat, we are confident that we will be able to add value to the Company for the benefit of all shareholders.

Post the period end we raised, in aggregate, £1.0 million (approximately US$1.3 million) through the placing announced on 28 July 2016, and I am pleased to say that the majority of the funds raised came from existing shareholders who demonstrated their support in the Company and its management. The fundraise was to provide, inter alia, funding to advance the Company's principal project, Homase-Akrokerri in Ghana, and we have now completed the 120 hole auger-drilling program and expect to mobilise shortly a multi-purpose reverse circulation ("RC") and diamond drill ("DD") rig to follow up on the extensions to known mineralisation within the Akrokerri licence as identified by the 2015 auger programme.

I do believe that we are finally seeing the bottom of the commodity cycle at last and there is a palpable confidence and enthusiasm in the junior mining sector, which has not been there for the past five years or so. GoldStone is well placed to take advantage of this and we are already seeing a number of opportunities being presented to us, which we will continue to review and assess going forward. Our focus, however, will initially be on adding to the resources we already have in Ghana.

I would like to thank Christopher Hall for the efforts he put into Goldstone during his tenure as Chairman, and we wish him well with his focus now as Chairman of Stratex International Plc, our major shareholder.

I look forward to being able to update you on the results of the recently completed auger and the planned RC/DD drilling programme at Homase-Akrokerri as they become available, and will undertake to keep you and the market fully informed about our progress.

Neil Gardyne
Chairman

Chief Executive Officer's Report

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

The principal activities of the Company during and post the period were focused on concluding essential corporate administrative issues and in recent months the Company has undertaken the successful fundraise of £1.0 million (approximately US$1.3 million) and the recommencing of exploration activities at the Company's principal project, Homase-Akrokerri, in Ghana.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The Company continued to focus its activities on its two key licences in Ghana, namely Homase and Akrokerri. A well-structured programme of early works was undertaken, including rehabilitation of the site access roads, locating and pegging the drill site locations for the auger and RC/DD programmes, crop compensation negotiations, site clearing and procurement of elements for the refurbishment to the camp and certain items of mobile equipment. The Company also continues to be engaged with the local community with the restoration works to the Krodia and Adubriem Schools and the proposed outgrowers scheme involving the local community.

Homase-Akrokerri Licences - Ghana

The Group owns a 90 per cent. interest in the Homase licence and 100 per cent. of the Akrokerri licence. The local 10 per cent. partner in the Homase licence is supportive of the Company's plans.

The 2015 auger drilling programme identified, amongst other targets, a 1,500m gold-in-regolith anomaly at the AK02 prospect on the Akrokerri licence, immediately south-west and along strike of the 602,000 ounce Homase-Akrokerri JORC resource. The Homase-Akrokerri deposit is contiguous with Anglo Gold Ashanti's Obuasi Mine and the geology within Goldstone's Homase-Akrokerri Project is interpreted to be similar to that which hosts the Obuasi mineralisation.

The AK02 prospect has been prioritised for the planned RC drilling programme of up to 2,500m, whilst the auger programme has been designed to evaluate areas of ground between the anomalous zones identified in 2015.

The 120 hole auger programme has now been completed and the multi-purpose RC/DD drill rig is expected to be mobilised on site shortly with drilling expected to commence towards the end of September.

The rig also has the capability to undertake deeper drilling if warranted by the initial results and the DD capability will enable the Company to follow-up on zones of interest identified by the planned RC drilling and to test higher-grade zones of mineralisation beneath the existing resource. These zones have previously been identified as a result of exploration and drill programmes completed over the last 10 years.

Elsewhere in Ghana, minimal work has been undertaken at the Manso Amenfi project.

Gabon and Senegal

The Company continues to identify potential corporate deals for these licences in order to extract their underlying value without actively pursuing significant exploration work ourselves. This may take the form of joint ventures, disposals or other corporate restructuring.

Update on exploration of the Akrokerri licence area, Ghana
 
GoldStone Resources Limited (AIM: GRL), the West and Central Africa focused gold exploration company quoted on AIM, is pleased to provide an update on the recent drilling programme comprising 3,000 metres of auger and some 1,500 metres of Reverse Circulation ("RC") drilling of the AK02 prospect, located immediately south west and along strike of the Homase/Akrokerri deposit and within the Akrokerri licence.
 
Highlights

·        RC drilling of a 750 metre-long gold-enriched saprolite zone identified within the AK02 prospect by the 2015 auger drilling programme confirmed mineralization at depth and returned significant intersections of 14 metres @ 1.18 g/t gold ("Au") and 8 metres @ 1.88 g/t Au

·        A 120 hole infill auger programme defined a new 1,250 metre x 350 metre zone of gold enrichment in saprolite located approximately 100-200 metres east of the 2015 auger anomaly

·        Geological interpretation of the 2016 auger and RC drilling indicates that the complex structural zone between Homase and AngloGold Ashanti's Obuasi Mine is prospective and that the south-western extension of the main Homase mineralized zone has been offset 200 metres eastward by faulting

·        RC drilling of the southern part of the previously identified Homase-Akrokerri resource zone confirmed continuity of the zone but limited potential for identifying additional oxide resource

·        Diamond drilling, targeting vertical depths of 200-300 metres, commenced to evaluate high-grade ore shoots beneath the known Homase oxide resource.
 
Neil Gardyne, Non-Executive Chairman, commented: "This phase of exploration, focused on the Akrokerri licence that straddles the linking structural zone between the Homase resource and the world-class Obuasi Mine, has demonstrated significant potential in terms of the deeper RC drilling of the target area identified in 2015 and also the identification of parallel zones of gold enrichment in saprolite resulting from the 2016 programme. These results and the juxtaposition of Akrokerri with Obuasi provide considerable encouragement to undertake further exploration in this area.
 
"In the meantime we have also commenced a preliminary programme of diamond drilling to probe the strike extensions of some of the deeper and higher-grade sulphide ore shoots previously identified within the known Homase 602,000 oz gold JORC-compliant resource.
 
"By focusing on adding to the oxide resource and also evaluating the deeper sulphide resource, we are looking to upgrade the total resource base and thus provide various options for exploiting both oxide and sulphide ores, a key corporate objective given the recovering gold price."

Update on Drilling Programme for the Homase licence area, Ghana
 
GoldStone Resources Limited (AIM: GRL), the West and Central Africa-focused gold exploration company quoted on AIM, is pleased to announce that the first-phase diamond drilling programme (three holes totalling 797 metres) on the Homase licence to explore the strike extensions of known ore shoots beneath the open pits that exploited higher-grade oxide material in 2001/02, has now been completed.
 
Initial examination of core indicates encouraging signs of gold mineralisation and the Company is awaiting assay results from the laboratory.  However, until the assays are received, no specific value, if any, can be attributed to these initial observations nor can it be determined at this stage whether the results will add to the existing JORC-compliant resource for Homase-Akrokerri of 602,000 oz gold.  The Company will provide an update as soon as the data becomes available.

GOLDSTONE RESOURCES LIMITED
 
Update on diamond drilling at Homase, Ghana
 
GoldStone Resources Limited (AIM: GRL), the AIM quoted company focused on gold exploration in Central and West Africa, is pleased to provide results of the recently completed diamond drilling programme at the Homase project in Ghana that targeted the deeper and higher grade sulphide ore shoots beneath the Homase oxide resource and the historical open pit previously exploited by AngloGold Ashanti in 2002/2003.
 
Highlights

·        Results for the three diamond drill-holes have returned very encouraging results
-   16HMDD-0001: 21.3 metres @ 1.98 g/t from 143.4 metres, including 7.4 metres @ 3.37g/t from 155.2 metres
-   16HMDD-0002: 23.3 metres @ 1.39 g/t from 170 metres, including 6 metres @ 4.44g/t from 187.3 metres and 3 metres @ 8.21g/t from 190.3 metres
-   16HMDD-0003:14.7 metres @ 0.83 g/t from 174.5 metres, including 3.30 metres @ 2.0g/t from 185.9 metres
-   16HMDD-0003: 6.1 metres @ 3.31 g/t from 248.5 metres
·        The drilling confirmed continuity of the mineralised zone to vertical depths of between 120 metres and 180 metres beneath the base of the historic open pit
·        The deeper intersection from the third hole suggests a potential for identifying parallel orebodies within the major structural corridor
·        The Company's immediate focus is to identify additional resources within the upper zones of the Homase mineralised corridor to facilitate near-term planning for exploitation
 
Neil Gardyne, Chairman, commented: "This three-hole drilling programme on the Homase licence has produced encouraging results by starting the process of targeting 'information gaps' within the existing resource.  These results provide important insights to the controls on the mineralisation as well as confirming continuity of the mineralised zone.  Importantly, they will allow us to plan further drilling with a view to adding to the existing resource, whilst at the same time improving confidence levels in the categorisation of the existing 0.62 million ounce JORC Code compliant resource.  Although there is little doubt that the ore shoots continue to greater depths, our focus will be on identifying resources at depths that can exploited in the foreseeable future."
 
Further Details
 
The three-hole diamond drill programme, totalling 797 metres and completed on 29 November 2016, was designed to provide new information on the depth- and strike-continuity of the Homase-Akrokerri mineralised zone beneath the known Homase oxide resource and the area previously exploited by AngloGold Ashanti for oxide material, which lies within the Homase licence.  The steeply NW-dipping mineralised zone occupies a major NE-trending structural corridor 10-15 km north-east of the multiple ore zones that comprise the Obuasi Mine, one of the World's largest gold deposits with a combined production and resource base of >70 million ounces of gold.
 
The three holes were inclined at 60o, 65o and 65o respectively towards 115o and targeted the mineralised zone at vertical depths of at least 100 metres beneath the base of the open pit.  All three holes intersected significant widths of sulphide mineralisation, thus confirming the continuity of the zone with depth.
 
Fig. 1. Location of the three diamond drillholes at Homase

(Please see link at top of announcement for the image)
 
Significant intersections >0.3 g/t Au are summarised in Table 1.
 
Table 1. 2016 Diamond drilling: significant intersections >0.3 g/t Au*


Drillholes 1 and 2 intersected the main mineralised zone at approximately 120 metres and 150 metres below the base of the Homase open pit respectively and returned relatively high-grade central zones within wide lower-grade envelopes.  The third hole intersected a wide low-grade zone of mineralisation that appears to correlate with the down-dip projection of the mineralised zone; it also intersected a higher-grade footwall zone that may be indicative of a parallel zone of interest.
 
The results from the first two holes provide significant encouragement to undertake additional drilling along the north-east extension of the mineralised zone beyond the existing open pit with a view to adding to the existing resource base.  A systematic evaluation of the third hole is necessary to determine the potential for adding to the resource beyond the south-western limit of the open pit but the presence of the higher-grade footwall intersection is very encouraging and not unexpected in the wide and complex structural corridor that hosts the mineralisation.
 
A detailed understanding of the controls of the ore shoots at Homase and Akrokerri is critical to the planning of further exploration and resource drilling.  Structurally and lithologically controlled ore shoots at Obuasi extend to vertical depths of more than 1,500 metres and the Company believes there is a reasonable potential that the ore shoots at Homase-Akrokerri will also have significant depth continuity.
 
However, the Company's immediate focus is to identify additional resources within the upper zones of the mineralised corridor through, subject to funding, further drilling to firstly add to and secondly to improve the categorisation of the existing JORC Code compliant resource for Homase to facilitate near-term planning for exploitation.
 
Sampling, assaying, and QA/QC
 
GoldStone's sampling of drill core, and other geological materials conforms to industry-wide good practise.  The Company maintains QA/QC on all analytical work via the use of certified reference materials, field duplicates, and blank samples in addition to monitoring of internal laboratory check-analyses.  Chain of custody is observed for all samples.  Determination of gold, by fire assay of 50g sub-samples and atomic absorption finish, was undertaken by ALS Minerals Limited in Kumasi, Ghana.
 
Information in this announcement is based on information compiled and reviewed by Issouf Ouedraogo, who is a Member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy.  Mr Ouedraogo has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 'Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves'.  Mr Ouedraogo consents to the release of this information in the form and context in which it appears.
 
Mr Ouedraogo is an employee of Stratex International Plc, an AIM quoted company that has a 33.45% equity stake in GoldStone. He provides geological support to GoldStone via the technical agreement between the two companies announced on 20 October 2016.

GOLDSTONE RESOURCES LIMITED

 
Update on auger drilling at Homase-Akrokerri, Ghana
 
GoldStone Resources Limited (AIM: GRL), the AIM quoted company focused on gold exploration in Central and West Africa, announces the results of a short shallow auger drilling programme completed to test areas parallel to the existing JORC Code compliant resource for Homase-Akrokerri.  As part of an ongoing review by the Company of the historical database for the Homase and Akrokerri licences, which has included a review of the Versatile Time-Domain Electromagnetic ("VTEM") survey and historical soil geochemistry carried out in 2012, the Company has identified nine targets and has now completed an augur drilling programme, consisting of 304 metres from 140 auger holes, testing three of these anomalies.
 
Highlights
·        Ongoing review of the extensive historical database relating to the Homase and Akrokerri licences, including a review of the 2012 VTEM survey
·        Augur programme undertaken to test three of the initial nine targets identified from the review of the 2012 VTEM survey comprising
-   36 holes sampling 86 metres at Akrokerri (Eureka SW)
-   104 holes sampling 218metres at Homase (Eureka and Eureka NE)
·        Assay results from all three targets demonstrate some degree of gold anomalism
·        Two zones of particular significance
-   Eureka, with marked anomalism over a strike of at least 200 metres and possibly indicating the potential of a 400 metre long geophysical anomaly
-   Eureka SW, with an anomalous zone >15 ppb Au identified over a distance of 300 metres
·        These results will be integrated into the 2017 drilling programme which will focus on resource conversion drilling, expanding the existing Homase resource and will also target other areas of interest within the licences
 
Neil Gardyne, Chairman, commented: "The review of historical data is deemed a necessity to ensure we understand the potential of these two licences, which have not been fully explored to date.  This auger programme is the start and demonstrates that we can assess potential targets quickly and cheaply utilising existing data.  The results of this auger drilling to the south-east of the Homase pit on the parallel identified zones, has demonstrated the potential to increase the mineralisation footprint within the licence areas.  We are encouraged by the results and believe they highlight the potential for discovery of additional gold mineralisation zones."
 
Further Details
 
The auger programme targeted the first three priority geophysical anomalies identified as part of a major review of the extensive historical database relating to the Homase and Akrokerri licences.  The database reflects 20 years of geological, geochemical, geophysical and drilling programmes across the licences and the Company believes that a systematic review and integration of the data is critical to the planning of further exploration and resource drilling.
 
Analysis of the results of the 2012 VTEM survey has resulted in the identification of at least nine high-conductivity zones comparable to the geophysical characteristics of the strongly mineralised section of the existing JORC Code compliant Homase-Akrokerri resource.  Three of these anomalous zones were targeted for further evaluation on the basis of proximity to and parallelism with the Homase-Akrokerri zone.  Auger drilling was selected to provide a rapid and cost-effective method of sampling the top of the weathered bedrock ("saprolite").  Manual auger drilling to a depth of 2 to 4 metres was undertaken systematically at 20 metre intervals along fence lines mostly spaced at 100 metres and samples were submitted for gold analysis.
 
Statistical evaluation of the results from the auger programme, indicated a lower threshold at 15 ppb Au that defined samples which can be regarded as anomalous, with further thresholds at 40 ppb and 72 ppb indicating progressively more anomalous samples.  The highest value determined was 628 ppb (0.628 g/t Au) within the Eureka prospect, see Figure 2.  Relating the results of the augur programme to the high-conductivity zones identified from the 2012 VTEM, confirms that all three targeted geophysical anomalies demonstrate some degree of anomalism, with two zones being of particular significance - Eureka with marked anomalism over a strike of at least 200 metres and possibly indicating the potential of a 400 metre long geophysical anomaly, and Eureka SW with an anomalous zone >15 ppb Au identified over a distance of 300 metres.
 
It is anticipated that further targets will be identified as the evaluation of the historical data continues.  This work together with the results of this augur programme, will be incorporated into finalising the 2017 drilling programme.  As previously set out, the Company's initial focus is, subject to funding, to undertake further drilling, firstly to add to and secondly to convert the existing JORC Code compliant resource for Homase-Akrokerri into the Measured categorisation in order to facilitate near-term planning for exploitation.  The Company will, subject to funding, also look to undertake further exploration work on target areas of interest as it seeks to increase the overall mineralisation footprint within the licences.

Update on Operations
 
GoldStone Resources Limited (AIM: GRL) is pleased to announce that it has commenced field work at its Homase-Akrokerri project in Ghana.
 
Following the investment by Paracale Gold Limited, the Company has undertaken a review of all of the available historic data on the existing JORC Code compliant resource for the Homase-Akrokerri project. Based on the review to date, the directors of the Company believe that there is a mineable reserve within the oxide zone within the Akrokerri licence. As the next step, the Company has commenced pit definition drilling, coupled with additional confirmation drilling to progress pit modelling. To carry out this work the Company has appointed Ghanaian contractors, BCM Ghana Limited, who have mobilised a drill rig and established earthworks equipment on the Akrokerri mine site.
 
These initial steps will facilitate pit design and provide the necessary platform for proceeding with an application to the Government of Ghana for a mining permit, which we expect to initiate before the end of September.
 
Neil Gardyne, Chairman, commented: "At long last we have an action orientated outlook for the Company and we are building a team to aggressively pursue a gold production focused strategy for the benefit of our shareholders."

Operational Update - Akrokerri Deep Trenches and Licences

GoldStone Resources Limited (AIM: GRL) announces the results of a deep trenching programme, completed as the first step of the pit definition programme announced on 17 July 2017, on the Akrokerri Licence in Ghana. The trenching was undertaken to define the extent of the mineralisation in the near-surface oxide zone of the known deposit and augment the findings from the continued review by the Company of the historical database for the Homase and Akrokerri licences.

The Company dug four trenches (Figure 1), two in each of the proposed pits, within the Southern part of the 2012 JORC Code compliant resource ("Current Resource"). The trenches, located on the Southern part of the Current Resource and along strike from the old Homase pit, were identified as having a high potential for an initial open pit for heap-leach production within the oxide zone. The trenches were dug to a depth of 7 metres and channel samples were taken near the bottom of each trench in 1 metre consolidated intervals.

Licence Update

The Company continues to review its portfolio and is in the process of renewing its licences in both Senegal and Ghana. With regards to Gabon, the Company is considering its options which will likely result in the disposal or relinquishment of the licences.

In respect to Ghana, all requisite documents have been submitted to the Ghanaian Minerals Commission for both Akrokerri (100 per cent. interest) and Homase (90 per cent. economic interest) and the Company has received confirmation that the licences are awaiting signature from the Minister of Mines.

The current drilling and trenching will facilitate in determining the potential pit design for the proposed Akrokerri pits and will provide the necessary platform for proceeding with an application to the Government of Ghana for a mining permit, following the extension of the licences.

GOLDSTONE RESOURCES LIMITED

Goldstone Announces £1.5 million Subscription

The Board of Goldstone Resources Limited (GRL:AIM) is pleased to announce that the Company is raising £1.5 million gross by way of a subscription for 100,000,000 new ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") (the "Subscription Shares") at 1.5 pence per Subscription Share (the "Subscription Price") with new and existing shareholders (the "Subscription").

The Subscription

The Subscription Shares will represent approximately 40.17 per cent of the Company's enlarged issued share capital and application will be made for the admission of the Subscription Shares to trading on AIM. Subject to receipt of the proceeds of the Subscription, expected shortly, it is anticipated that dealings in the Subscription Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 6 October 2017 ("Admission"). The total number of shares in issue following Admission will be 248,968,523, which may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, Goldstone under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

The Subscription Price represents a discount of approximately 31.8 per cent. to the closing mid market price of the Company's Ordinary Shares on 26 September 2017, being the latest practicable date prior to this announcement, and a discount of approximately 21.2 per cent. to the Company's average closing mid market price for the 30 days prior to 26 September 2017.

BCM Investment Limited ("BCM") is subscribing for 50,000,000 Subscription Shares as part of the Subscription, representing approximately 20.08 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital on Admission. BCM and its subsidiaries (together, the "BCM Group") has provided the Company with mining services in relation to the Company's current drilling programmes. As part of the relationship which has developed between the Company and BCM Group as a result of this work and the fact that the BCM Group is supportive of the Company's strategy, discussions that have been ongoing over recent weeks have culminated in the BCM Group supporting the Company through its participation in the Subscription.

BCM is one of Africa's largest private contract miners. BCM Group began as "Bayswater Contracting", a family firm in Western Australia in the early 1950s, involved primarily in the civil works and mining construction business. Under the same family ownership, BCM Group expanded into Ghana in 1990 and thereafter further into Mali, Tanzania, Guinea and Niger. By 2000, BCM had established itself as one of the leading mining and civil contractors in Sub-Saharan Africa. In 2004, BCM became the first Western-style mining contractor in Central Asia, with operations in Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. BCM are seeking partners to develop resource projects in West Africa.

Relationship Agreement

The Company, BCM and Strand Hanson have entered into a relationship agreement, to provide certain safeguards to ensure, inter alia, that for so long as BCM and its associates together are entitled to exercise or control the exercise of 20 per cent. or more of the issued share capital of the Company, GoldStone is capable of carrying on its business independently of BCM as a substantial shareholder.

Use of Proceeds

The proceeds of the Subscription will be applied to the Company's operations and the general advancement of the Company's corporate objectives.

Related Party Transaction

Paracale Gold Limited ("Paracale"), an existing shareholder in the Company, will be subscribing for 30,000,000 Subscription Shares pursuant to the Subscription. On Admission, Paracale will hold an aggregate holding of 70,352,377 Ordinary Shares in the Company representing approximately 28.26 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital on Admission. As Paracale is currently interested in approximately 27.09 per cent. of the Company's current issued share capital, the issue of Subscription Shares to Paracale is a related party transaction under the AIM Rules for Companies. The Company's Board of Directors, having consulted with the Company's nominated adviser, Strand Hanson Limited, considers that the terms of the proposed issue of the Subscription Shares to Paracale are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.



Neil Gardyne, Non-Executive Chairman, commented:

"We are delighted to welcome BCM as a shareholder and partner to Goldstone and with the continued support from existing shareholders in raising £1.5 million in an uncertain market. We look forward to applying these funds to furthering the Company's objectives and accelerating growth with Homase/Akrokerri Project in Ghana."
