Robust Resources Limited is pleased to advise that recent exploration activity at the Batu Perak prospect at the company’s Romang Island project is enhancing project development options based on what is now very likely to be a large VMS-style discovery. Drilling has already indicated that the Batu Perak VMS-style mineralisation is laterally extensive and geologically continuous. To date, nine holes have been drilled and each hole has intersected the VMS horizon and significant mineralisation.

Key points:
·Discovery of extensive VMS1-style gold, silver and rich base metals at Batu Perak enhanced by recent assay results
o  LWD 357 intersected 12.28% base metals and 5.04 g/t AuEq2 over 6m
o  Potential strike >2 km; 500m tested by drilling to date with 100% success rate
·Stratabound VMS deposit intersected in all 9 holes drilled at Batu Perak
. Higher grade VMS deposit maybe amenable to open pit mining and flotation
o Opportunity for enhanced metal recoveries
o Metallurgical testwork has commenced on larger-scale flotation project
· Two rigs dedicated to drilling Batu Perak; six on other targets
