Therefore, subject to the Company completing a review of these expenditures, IAMGOLD will acquire a 51% interest in Senala.\n\nIAMGOLD has also confirmed that it intends to proceed with the Second Option of the Agreement whereby it has an option, at its election, to complete a further US$4 million of expenditure within a further two year period to earn an additional 19% interest in Senala for an aggregate 70% interest in the Project.\n\n**Tim Livesey, CEO of Oriole, commented:** “IAMGOLD’s notification that it has reached the U$4 million expenditure threshold and is moving to a 51% position at Senala is reflective of the excellent results we have seen coming out of the Year 4 exploration programme at the Project. We will be engaging with IAMGOLD to move through the process of formalising the new ownership arrangements and discussing the future exploration plans.”\n\n \n\n \n\n**Investor Presentation**\n\nTo coincide with the 121 EMEA Mining Investment event being held this week, Oriole Resources (AIM: ORR), the AIM-quoted exploration company focussed on West Africa, has released an updated corporate presentation that is available to view on the Company’s website at [https://orioleresources.com/investors/reports-presentations/](https://orioleresources.com/investors/reports-presentations/).\n\n**Oriole Resources PLC**\n\n**Tim Livesey / Bob Smeeton / Claire Bay**\n\n**Tel: +44 (0)20 7830 9650**"}
