Further results at San Albino

Condor Resources PLC 03 September 2007 3 September 2007 Condor Resources plc (''Condor'' or ''the Company'') Further High Grade Trench Results at the Arras Prospect (San Albino Licence), Nicaragua Highlights •Results include 24 metres at 7.17 grams per tonne gold •High grade gold mineralisation defined over 200 metres strike length and open in all directions San Albino Licence, Arras Prospect Condor Resources Plc (AIM: CNR) is pleased to announce the results of extension and infill trenching at it's Aguja de Arras (Arras) Prospect in Northern Nicaragua close to the historical high grade San Albino Gold Mine. Extensions to trenches excavated in the first phase of trenching, as well as an infill trench designed to close the trench spacing to 40 metres along strike, has extended the width and better defined the orientation of the high-grade gold mineralisation reported in May 2007 (RNS 'Significant High Grade Trenching Results at the San Albino Project, Nicaragua' dated 18th May 2007). A mineralised zone up to 24 metres width at a grade of 7.17 gram per tonne gold (SATR003 - including a 3 metre wide zone of internal waste) has now been defined, with individual assay results of up to 1 metre at 47.5 gram per tonne gold. The high grade gold mineralisation has been intercepted in five adjacent trenches and currently defines a strike length of 200m, open along strike in both directions, with a maximum width of 24 metres which remains unconstrained. Significant results from the five trenches include: +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | Trench Number | Width | Gold Grade | Comments | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | STRR003 |24 metres | 7.17g/t |Includes 3 metres of internal waste. | | | | |Includes: | | SATR003 |18 metres | 8.80g/t | | | | | |Extended from 12 metres at 5.59g/t gold, | | | | |and | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | SATR003 | 2 metres | 5.80g/t |New result extending width of | | | | |mineralisation | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | SATR010 |18 metres | 6.77g/t |Previously reported | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | SATR010* | 8 metres | 8.82g/t |Previously reported as two separate | | | | |intercepts now includes 2 metres of | | | | |internal waste | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | SATR011 |16 metres | 7.89g/t |Previously reported | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | SATR024 | 1 metre | 5.15g/t |New result, 40m spaced infill trench | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | SATR024 | 2 metres | 5.01g/t |New result, 40m spaced infill trench | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | SATR024 | 2 metres | 6.27g/t |New result, 40m spaced infill trench | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | SATR024 | 5 metres | 6.97g/t |New result, 40m spaced infill trench | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ | SATR013 | 3 metres | 4.99g/t |Previously reported | +---------------+----------+------------+-----------------------------------------+ Intercepts calculated using 1g/t gold lower cut and allowing 1m internal waste. The inclusion of internal waste in measurements has the effect of reducing the gold grade per tonne and providing an indicative gold grade more applicable to bulk tonnage recovery. * Discretionary 2m of internal waste at over 0.5g/t gold grade included in this intercept. High grade gold mineralisation at the Arras Prospect is hosted by both quartz veins and the adjacent altered wall rock, in a package of graphitic schist within the under-explored Guayape Suture Zone. The Directors believe that multiple rock chip samples assaying over 1 gram per tonne gold indicate half a dozen or more parallel mineralised systems throughout the company's San Albino Licence and extending onto the adjacent Potrerillos Licence. Condor's application for the 12 km2 Potrerillos Licence was granted in July this year and field rock chip sampling has already commenced. At the Arras Prospect, further extensions to the existing trenches and additional trenching along strike is already underway. Preparations have been completed for a combined reverse circulation and diamond core drilling programme to test the mineralisation at depth. Other gold mineralised trends identified by regional rock chip sampling within the San Albino Licence area are being systematically tested by trenching and Condor is confident that this work will result in the discovery of further high grade gold mineralised systems comparable to the Arras Prospect. Cacao Licence, Nicaragua Drilling has been completed at the Cacao Licence and the rig mobilised to the Arras Prospect where initial drilling has commenced on receipt of the necessary permit, to complete approximately 1000 metres of combined Reverse Circulation and Diamond drilling. Condor is awaiting results from the Cacao drilling program and expects to release an initial resource estimate for both the Cacao Licence and the Arras Prospect before the end of the year. El Potosi Licence, El Salvador Condor has recently completed a full technical review of drilling and surface data at the El Potosi Licence in El Salvador. The review suggests that although gold is present in the system, the mineralised structures are narrow and very discrete with little or no wall-rock alteration, thus proving a hard and expensive target to define further. It was therefore decided that Condor's other projects, such as Arras and San Albino, should be given every opportunity to be developed into profitable mines and the US$1.25 million payment due to Brett Resources within 30 days of the 24th August under the El Potosi Option Agreement (RNS 15 February 2007) would be better spent funding exploration and development of those projects. Brett has therefore been formally advised that Condor is withdrawing from the El Potosi Option Agreement.

The Company's objective is to prove up significant gold and silver resources of between 1 to 2 million ounces of gold and 30 to 50 million ounces of silver to JORC reportable standards by the 31st May 2008. The Company intends to continue to drill test targets within its Project areas. The drilling programme is planned to be between 20,000m and 40,000m of combined reverse circulation and diamond drilling.
