Ira Miri Mn Discovery Drilling

Estrella Resources Limited (ASX: ESR) is excited to share the discovery of 6.45m of massive manganese oxides in our maiden drill hole in Timor-Leste, marking the country's first modern metallic minerals exploration. This significant find provides confidence in our exploration model and points to rich manganese deposits. We have expedited the drill program, including diamond and RC drilling, demonstrating our commitment to unlocking potential in this underexplored region. We appreciate the support of our partners and contractors in achieving this milestone.

Our exploration program has uncovered primary manganese mineralization in banded cherts and irons, with secondary supergene and tertiary mineralization also present. Timor-Leste's geological history provides a compelling backdrop for further exploration. The company continues to prioritize quality control, with rigorous sampling and analysis procedures in place.

The next steps for Estrella include expanding on known stratigraphy to evaluate mineralization styles and genesis while planning for future drilling activities. Comprehensive reporting of all exploration results is maintained to ensure transparency and avoid misleading information. We welcome inquiries from investors interested in our progress and look forward to updating shareholders as our exploration efforts continue. Contact Managing Director Christopher J. Daws for further information.
