Wishbone Gold Plc ("Wishbone" or the "Company") Result of Placing and Open Offer

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - April 30, 2014) - On 4 April 2014, Wishbone Gold Plc (AIM:WSBN)
(PINKSHEETS:WISHY), an exploration and acquisition company focussed on precious metals, announced details of a Placing
and Open Offer of up to 32,696,293 New Ordinary Shares at 1.5 pence each to raise approximately GBP 0.5 million (before
expenses). The Placing was effected by a conditional placing of shares with Black Swan FZE, a company wholly owned by
Black Swan plc, of which Richard Poulden, Chairman of the Company, is a director and a majority shareholder and was
subject to clawback, depending on the acceptance levels under the Open Offer.

The Open Offer has now closed in accordance with the terms and conditions as described in the circular posted to
Shareholders on 4 April 2014 and the Company confirms that it has received valid acceptances from Qualifying
Shareholders and Qualifying DI Holders in respect of 9,335,225 New Ordinary Shares. These acceptances represent 29% of
the total maximum Offer Shares available under the Open Offer and approximately 38% of those Offer Shares available to
third parties (being the total Shareholder Entitlements, excluding those assigned to Richard Poulden and his connected
parties).

In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Open Offer all applications made pursuant to the Open Offer have been
accepted and the New Ordinary Shares conditionally placed pursuant to the Placing have been clawed back. Consequently,
the total 32,696,293 New Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing and Open Offer comprise 23,361,068 Placing
Shares and 9,335,225 Offer Shares.

Wishbone is also delighted to announce that the Global Resources Investment Trust plc (GRIT) have taken part in this
Placing and Open Offer. GRIT is a strategic supporter of Wishbone Gold and its management and is a medium to long term
holder of 18.7% of Wishbone Gold, post the take up of its entitlement under the offer. David Hutchins of GRIT said "GRIT
is delighted to support Wishbone Gold plc and its outstanding management team."

In addition, Black Swan FZE has charged a 3 per cent. fee for acting as underwriter to the issue, satisfied by the issue
of 980,888 new Ordinary Shares (being the Commission Shares).

Application was made for a total of 33,677,181 New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and dealings
commenced on 28 April 2014. Following Admission Wishbone's total issued and voting share capital comprises of
262,551,235 Ordinary Shares. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which
they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, securities of
the Company.

Following Admission, the interests of the Directors (including the interests of their spouses and infant children and
the interests of any person connected with him (within the meaning of sections 252 to 254 of the 2006 Act)) are as
