**Tertiary Minerals plc (AIM: TYM),** a London-listed exploration company specializing in energy transition and precious metals in Zambia and Nevada, USA, announce the successful conclusion of its recent soil sampling initiative at the Lubuila Copper Project.

**Key Takeaways – Lubuila Copper Project**

· The proposed soil sampling initiative has been successfully concluded, including additional follow-up sampling based on the analytical outcomes of in-field portable X-Ray Fluorescence (pXRF1).

· A total of 425 soil samples have been gathered over three distinct grids, targeting two unexplored regions of Lower Roan Group sediments (Areas A and B) and a previously known copper-in-soil anomaly at Area C in Upper Roan Group sediments.

· Preliminary findings reveal a large copper-in-soil anomaly spanning roughly 1,000m x 680m at Area C, with a peak copper value of 306 ppm and an average value of 125ppm Cu.

· A subset of the samples will undergo traditional wet geochemical ICP analysis for data validation and interpretation.

**Executive Chairman Patrick Cheetham shared his thoughts on the update:**

“I’m delighted to announce the successful completion of our initial soil sampling programme for the 2023 exploration season, which has also yielded intriguing preliminary results.

The copper-in-soil anomaly discovered in Area C is substantial and continues to be open in all directions. However, confirmation through traditional laboratory wet geochemical analysis is essential, which can also provide analysis for a broader range of metallic elements and a more comprehensive geochemical context. We are submitting a subset of samples for laboratory analysis and eagerly look forward to the findings.”
