 Kinusi Copper Assay Results Update

Marula Mining (AQSE: MARU) an African focused mining and development company, advises that the assay results from the 51 copper samples that were taken by Geofields Tanzania Limited ("Geofields") as part of the Phase 1 Program at the Kinusi Copper Mine (“Kinusi” or the “Project”) that were due to be received late in July 2023, as announced on 29 June 2023, have been delayed until early August 2023.

The assay results have been delayed as over 60% of the samples (33 of the 51 samples) submitted for analyses have given preliminary results that exceeded the upper testing / detection limit of 10,000mg/kg (>1.00% copper) under standard ICP-AES testing, with the balance of the preliminary results providing an average result of 4,918mg/kg.

Accordingly, the Company has requested additional analyses to be completed at SGS Laboratories (“SGS”) testing facilities in Tanzania.

All 51 samples will now be re-assayed by SGS at their facilities in Tanzania using the Aqua Regia digestion ICP-AES / 0.01-30% copper method, which is considered suitable for high grade copper ore analyses.

Results are expected to now be received by early August 2023.

The Directors of Marula are responsible for the contents of this announcement. This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of UK Market Abuse Regulation.
