EXPLORATION UPDATE

RUPICE NORTHWEST DEPOSIT

 EXTENSION, INFILL & LOWER ZONE DRILLING SUCCESS, CONNECTION TO RUPICE DEPOSIT RESOLVED

HIGHLIGHTS

·      Q1 & Q2 exploration objectives for Adriatic Metals' Rupice Northwest ('RNW') deposit were met and exceeded with:

⁃    extension of mineralisation westward;

⁃    extension of mineralisation to the south-west towards Rupice;

⁃    definition of the high-grade RNW 'Lower Zone'; and

⁃    resolving RNW to be a separate but overlapping mineralised body.

·      The RNW 'Lower Zone' continued to be confirmed as a copper gold rich body with high grade lead, zinc, silver and antimony and reduced barium.

·      New significant assays from the RNW Lower Zone continued to be reported through the period e.g., 9.30m @ 2,624.8 g/t AgEq or 84.40% ZnEq including 816.6g/t Ag, 28.90% Zn, 14.96% Pb, 6.85g/t Au, 2.66% Cu, 7.3% BaSO4, 0.62% Sb in hole BR-22-23.

·      Elevation in copper and gold in the western extent of RNW was also noted as on par with the RNW Lower Zone e.g., 13.00m @ 3,064.3g/t AgEq or 98.53% ZnEq including 989.2 g/t Ag, 29.18% Zn, 22.19% Pb, 6.36 g/t Au, 4.25% Cu, 2.1% BaSO4, 1.21% Sb in hole BR-22-23.

·      Drilling in the GAP between the Rupice and RNW deposits supports the mineralised bodies as overlapping rather than connecting, presenting opportunities in mine development.

·      The RNW mineralisation extension into the GAP has returned high grades from narrow metal rich zones e.g., 8.30m @ 1,446.3g/t AgEq or 45.50% ZnEq including 303.3g/t Ag, 19.00% Zn, 7.94% Pb, 2.46 g/t Au, 3.05% Cu, 22.0% BaSO4, 0.37% Sb in hole BR-19-23.

·      Infill drilling in Q2 demonstrated continuity in high grades and mineralisation thickness between previously drilled holes, de-risking RNW to an Indicated resource level of confidence.

·      Sufficient high quality representative drilling results have been returned to proceed to an updated Rupice Mineral Resource Estimate ('MRE') in July 2023.

·      As at end of June, Rupice, RNW and RNW Lower Zone remain open to resource expansion highlighting the outstanding and extensive nature of the polymetallic mineralised system and region.

·      A 4^th diamond drill rig commenced drilling at Rupice West in June to advance an aggressive regional exploration program for new precious and base metals deposits.

Paul Cronin, Adriatic's Managing Director and CEO, commented:

"Exploration in Q1 and Q2 2023 positioned Adriatic Metals for a major Rupice mineral resource update in July 2023.

Drilling has demonstrated narrower but higher-grade zones of mineralisation and added quality base and precious metals rich tonnes peripheral to the thick centre of RNW. Extension drilling to the west and southwest of RNW saw strong increases in copper and gold grades as mineralisation narrowed, while retaining outstanding lead, zinc and silver grades.

The expansion of the narrow but extremely high grade continuous RNW Lower Zone has added further value and opportunity to an already rich RNW mineralised system.

By drilling at Rupice and RNW it is now clear that the mineralisations overlap each other at their peripheries. Therefore, there is an opportunity to develop both deposits simultaneously, with minimal additional development capital.

Capping-off the resource extensions was the successful infill drilling between the 2022 RNW holes. Excellent consistency of widths, equivalent high grades, mineralisation continuity on section and along strike gives us confidence that the majority of drilled mineralisation will have an Indicated resource level of confidence. This will support a further significant expansion of reserves which are to be determined in parallel to an updated mine plan incorporating RNW.

The Q3 drilling schedule will turn attention back to the main Rupice orebody with a focus on growing the Rupice resource beyond the current reserve, both up-dip and down-dip, using the knowledge gained from RNW. Exploration will also be in full swing with drill testing of Rupice West, Semizova Ponikva and Droskovac prospects. Drilling has started with a regional exploration dedicated 4^th diamond drill rig."

Presented below are select significant assay results from 8 of 17 RNW exploration drill holes completed since the last public announcement. Three drill holes (BR-10-23, BR-21-23 and BR-24-23) closed-off mineralisation and did not contain significant results. Three drill holes (BR-17-23, BR-25-23, BR-26-23) were abandoned and redrilled due to ground conditions and hole deviation. The current presented assay results are in addition to previous results announced for RNW on 20 April 2023. Details of all 20 holes are appended.

RUPICE NORTHWEST EXPLORATION results

Adriatic Metals PLC (ASX:ADT, LSE:ADT1, OTCQX:ADMLF) ("Adriatic" or the "Company") is pleased to report on recent exploration results at the Company's flagship Vares Silver Project in Bosnia & Herzegovina.

As previously announced on the 20 April 2023, exploration drilling intersected high-grade mineralisation in drill holes BR-33-22, BR-01A-23, BR-03A-23, BR04-23, BR-05-23, BR-06-23, BR-07-23 and BR-08-23 across RNW. Subsequently, the Company has focused exploration activities across six (6) drill sections with continued further extension, closing-off and infilling of the RNW deposit. Results from new drill holes BR-09-23, BR-10-23, BR-11-23, BR-12-23, BR-13-23, BR-14-23, BR-15-23, BR-16-23, BR-18-23, BR-19-23, BR-20-23, BR-22-23, BR-23-23, BR-24-23, BR-25-23, BR-26A-23 and BR-27-23 are detailed. Holes BR-17-23, BR-25-23 and BR-26-23 are listed as abandoned and not having significant mineralisation.

Section NW4760 (RNW - Rupice GAP Zone)

Three (3) strike extension holes (step-outs) were completed on the southernmost section of RNW drilling. Of the three holes, the westernmost second hole BR-21-23 intersected massive sulphides correlating to RNW mineralisation. There was no significant economic mineralisation in the hole, with the greatest value being an indicator that the RNW system will develop westward of this position. Holes BR-20-23 and BR-24-23 were unsuccessful in defining mineralisation as where east of favourable RNW lithologies. Drilling will return to this section in Q3 as the north-eastern extension of the Rupice orebody is anticipated further east on this section and RNW is expected further to the west.

Section NW4800 (RNW - Rupice GAP Zone)

Four (4) strike extension holes (step-outs) were completed on the first of the GAP sections to be drilled. Holes BR-09-23, BR-12-23, BR-15-23 and BR-19-23 stepped-out from previously reported holes BR-04-23 and BR-06-23. Holes BR-09-23 and BR-19-23 successfully extended RNW mineralisation previously reported in hole BR-04-23 westward. The new holes also intersected below RNW what correlates to be the southernmost occurrence of RNW Lower Zone and RNW Upper Zone mineralisation. Holes BR-12-23 and BR-15-23 to the east of BR-06-23 did not intersect RNW, instead passed through mineralisation correlated as an extension of Rupice mineralisation above the stratigraphic position of RNW. Drilling will continue on this section in Q3 2023.

Section NW4840 (RNW)

Two (2) drill holes were completed on this key section since last announcement. BR-11-23 infilled a 50m gap between BR-15-22 and BR-18-22 for Indicated resource conversion, and hole BR-16-23 continued the process of stepping-out westward to extend mineralisation. Both were successful.  Drilling continues on this section extending RNW westward and testing for RNW Lower Zone at depth in Q3.

Section NW4880 (RNW)

BR-27-23 stepped-out >60m westward from the most western RNW mineralised intercept on this section ni hole BR-09-22. The hole was successful in extending RNW, striking RNW Lower and Upper Zones in the same hole on section.  Drilling currently continues on this section to extend mineralisation westward and to infill between previously drilled holes to an Indicated resource level of confidence.

Section NW4920 (RNW)

Five (5) holes were completed on this section since last exploration announcement. Holes BR-18-23, BR-23-23 and BR-26A-23 were successful infill holes confirming mineralisation continuity and high grade between previously drilled, widely spaced holes to an Indicated resource level of confidence. Holes BR-14-23 and BR-22-23 extended mineralisation westward by >80m. The two step-out holes defined increasing Cu and Au grades westward in line with other sections.  Hole BR-22-23 reported spectacular grades from RNW and the RNW Lower Zone across Pb, Zn, Ag, Au and Cu. Drilling will continue on this section in Q3 to infill drill wide spaced drilling gaps and to better understand the distribution of RNW Lower Zone mineralisation.

Section NW4960 (RNW)

Two (2) step-out holes were completed on this section since last announcement. Hole BR-10-23 closed-off RNW mineralisation to the west, whereas hole BR-13-23 was successful in extending the RNW Upper Zone of mineralisation.  BR-13-23 was not designed to test the main body of RNW mineralisation as this was closed out in previously reported hole BR-01A-23. Drilling will continue in Q3 to infill drill three remaining wide spaced mineralization gaps for conversion from an Inferred to Indicated level of mineralization confidence. Mineralisation on this section is >300m in width from southwest to northeast, varying in thickness from 3m to >40m.

2023 Exploration Works

Adriatic continued exploration activities to extend and infill the RNW base and precious metals deposit. The deposit is progressively being infill drilled to a nominal 40m x 30m drill spacing and extended westward on sections, as well as southwards onto new sections in increments of 40m. Diamond drill holes are drilled in fans to achieve a 25m to 30m separation between mineralisation intersections on the drill lines (sections). Where there is apparent structural influence on mineralisation, drill spacings have decreased to 20m spacings on sections locally to allow for better definition of mineralisation distribution e.g., RNW Lower Zone.

Exploration drilling using three diamond drill rigs will continue to concentrate on the western and southwestern extents of RNW in June and July. The 2023 accessible extents of RNW have been defined with remaining drilling focussing on closing drilling gaps and infill drilling the mineralisation to an Indicated resource level of confidence. Drilling of RNW has taken longer and more metres than planned due to the unexpected western extension of mineralisation; definition of the RNW Lower Zone; and additional drilling to resolve the distribution of mineralisation within the Rupice - RNW Gap.

The focus of drilling shifts to Rupice in July with a staged redeployment of three surface drill rigs to start the Rupice Up-Dip step-out (extension) drilling program. The aim of drilling in Q3 and Q4 is to infill Rupice drilling gaps to increase resources and reserves, provide data for optimised mine planning and to complete the definition of the Rupice orebody while access to surface drilling platforms remains.

Results from drilling provided in this announcement contributed to the resolution of the relationship between the Rupice and RNW bodies of mineralisation. Drilling in the Gap on Sections NW4800 and NW4760 showed the extension of RNW to the southwest away from the trend of Rupice. An unmineralised strongly altered dolomitic lithology appears to separate the Rupice mineralised body from RNW mineralisation. The mineralised bodies overlap each other with RNW pinching out from NW to SE and Rupice pinching out from SE to NW.

Outcomes from RNW 2022 and 2023 drilling to end of May and Rupice 2022 drilling to end of December will be included in a combined Rupice and RNW MRE in July 2023. Interpretation, modelling and QAQC are well advanced. AMC Consultants have been engaged to complete and sign-off on the 2023 July Rupice Resource block model and estimate.

A fourth diamond drill rig commenced drilling in June. The fourth rigs' focus is regional exploration. Drilling in June commenced over the Rupice West prospect 1.5km west of Rupice. The drill hole is targeting a soil and coincident ground gravity anomaly. Regional exploration drilling will advance onto the Semizova Ponikva prospect following completion of holes at Rupice West.

A ground gravity survey was completed across the Droskovac prospect in Q2. Results will be processed in Q3 and results incorporated into the planning of the 2023 Droskovac development drilling program. An exciting program targeting known Pb-Zn mineralisation left behind following historic underground and open pit mining of sideritic iron ores.
