UPDATED ANNOUNCEMENT - EXPLORATION PROGRAM PROGRESSING AT

MINJINGU AND MIKUJU

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Ground radiometric survey (of 1,971.6 line kilometres) completed at 296.9km2 Minjingu Uranium Project in northern Tanzania.
  • Survey delineates a zone of 7.5km by 2.5km within which there are discrete areas of radiometric anomalism.
  • Plan to ground truth the anomalies with a view to including new targets in the upcoming drill program
  • Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) executed to facilitate sampling of stockpiles on adjoining Minjingu Phosphate Mining License
  • Awaiting assay results from ALS Johannesburg on selected samples from 2 completed drill holes and final regulatory approvals to accelerate exploration programs at Minjingu and its flagship Mkuju Uranium project.

Gladiator Resources Ltd (ASX: GLA) (Gladiator or the Company) is pleased to report that its wholly owned subsidiary (subject to final regulatory approvals) Zeus Resources (T) Limited (Zeus) has substantially progressed activity at its Minjingu Uranium Project located in Northern Tanzania and is now well positioned to accelerate the program once final regulatory approvals are obtained and its acquisition of Zeus becomes unconditional.

Gladiator Resources Chairman Ian Hastings commented:

"The Company has now completed radiometric ground survey at its Minjingu Uranium Project in the North of Tanzania with very positive results and has identified areas of radiometric anomalism for further investigation. These will be ground truthed by geological mapping and pit sampling and potentially incorporated into a planned expanded drill program (ASX:GLA 24 January 2022) expected to commence shortly. Zeus has also executed an MOU with the owners of the adjoining Mining License which will facilitate the sampling of stockpiles. All of these initiatives should bolster the Minjingu Project substantially."

Minjingu - (Uranium, Phosphate) 100% Gladiator

The Minjingu Uranium and Phosphate Project covers a total area of 296.9km2 and is located in Northern Tanzania, 106km southwest of Arusha the main administrative city in the area and 520km northwest of Dar es salaam. The Minjingu Project area possesses solid infrastructure such as quality tarmac roads, power lines, airport services via both Arusha and Kilimanjaro International airports and ample water resources.

As previously reported (ASX:GLA 24 January 2022) the planned maiden Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program at Minjingu which was designed to evaluate historical intercepts (reported by Montero Mining and Exploration Ltd: ((TSX.V: MON)) in 2007) encountered difficult ground conditions necessitating a change from RC to Aircore drilling causing some delay. This provided an opportunity to complete the ground radiometric survey which has now been completed with encouraging results. The Company completed the 1,971.6 line kilometre survey along east-west oriented 100m spaced lines collecting a total (non-spectral) dose reading every 10 seconds using a GF Instruments (Gamma Surveyor). The results are illustrated in figure 1 and identify discrete anomalous zones within a larger 7.5km by 2.5km area of elevated dose. The discrete anomalies are up to 4-5 km in length and seem to surround the Minjingu phosphate Mine Lease where uranium mineralisation is known to occur.

The priority holes drilled being 21MJRC001 and 21MJRC002 are shown on figure 1 with samples dispatched to ALS Johannesburg) for analysis.

The Company has also finalised an MOU and completed discussions with Minjingu Mines and Fertilizer Limited (MMFL) who hold the adjoining Mining License on which it has actively mined Phosphate for many years. Under the terms of the MOU the companies will work together to identify mutual opportunities including the testing of historical stockpiles on MMFL's license for Uranium which is expected to bolster the opportunity at Minjingu.

Regulatory approvals still pending

The Company's acquisition of Zeus remains conditional on the granting of all necessary regulatory approvals by the Tanzanian Government and the Company is awaiting final approval by the Fair Competition Commission which is expected to be granted shortly. Until received and the Company's acquisition of Zeus is completed, the Company is assisting Zeus financially by way of a secured loan to undertake works at Minjingu in the North and to finalise planning for its principal project at Mkuju in the South, expected to commence at the end of the wet season. The Company has already appointed three directors to the Zeus board and will increase its direct involvement once final approvals are received and the acquisition completes with an expected focus over the balance of 2022 on the Mkuju Uranium project in Southern Tanzania.
