Mr Mick Billing, Executive Chairman of Thor:  "We are very pleased with this ongoing support from our investors.  The recently announced very positive news regarding drilling results at Pilot Mountain provide a compelling case for follow up work, and funds raised via exercise of warrants can contribute towards this."

"We eagerly await the results of assays following the successful drill programme which are expected in the near term and which will further highlight the extent of mineralisation at what the Board believe is a substantial strategic metals project in Nevada, United States. "
