Update on Treatment of Thorny River drill samples

Botswana Diamonds ('BOD'), the AIM and BSE listed diamond explorer, is pleased to provide an update on the analysis of samples from the drill campaign on the Thorny River diamond project.

Initial indications from the sorting are positive. A two-week delay caused by local covid-19 issues means that the results will now be available mid-August.

The positive initial indications encouraged BOD to plan for additional drilling on the untested ground between the river and the already discovered kimberlite blows. Site preparation is underway.

The person who arranged for the release of this announcement on behalf of the Company was James Campbell, Director

A copy of this announcement is available on the Company's website, at www.botswanadiamonds.co.uk
