Lindian Resources Limited provide this update on the ongoing Phase 1 mine development drilling program, progress of first assays and samples and Government and Community liaison work with respect to the Kangankunde Rare Earths Project. Lindian is making solid progress with the Phase 1, 12,500 metre mine development drill program. First assays are due shortly and a progressive flow of samples in preparation ensures a steady stream of assay reporting. The Phase 1 program consists of 10,000 metres of RC drilling and 2,500 metres of core drilling on the Kangankunde hill top. The drill pattern is based on 50 metre east-west sections, and as radial fans perpendicular to the interpreted carbonatite boundary where topography provides access. Two additional deep drill holes are planned from drill pads near the base of the Kangankunde hill and are designed to allow drilling to continue during the wet season. These two drill holes, each planned to be 1,000 metres in length, are designed to test the N-S and E-W axies of the carbonatite between 300 metres and 800 metres below the hill top.
