Highlands Natural Resources plc ('Highlands' or 'the Company')

Interest in Shares

Highlands, the London listed natural resources company, announces that it has been informed that Robert Price's shareholding of 12,000,000 ordinary shares, which is unchanged since the IPO, represents 35.4 per cent. of the total voting rights.  The percentage is a reflection of the recent exercises of warrants by other investors and the share subscription that was carried out in April this year.

In addition, through his 37.5 per cent. shareholding in Diversion Technologies LLC ("Diversion"), Mr Price has a beneficial interest in Diversion's holding of 1,900,000 ordinary shares in Highlands.

Also as a consequence of the recent increases in the company's issued share capital and total voting rights to 33,927,349, Diversion Technology LLC's unchanged holding of 1,900,000 shares now represents 5.60% of the total voting rights.

Mr E J Boyle's shareholding remains unchanged but is no longer a notifiable interest and Mr M Stephenson no longer has a notifiable interest in the shares.
