Half-yearly Report

Greatland Gold PLC 13 March 2007 GREATLAND GOLD PLC Half-yearly Report to 31 December 2006 Dated: 13 March 2007 Greatland Gold plc (the 'Company') the mineral exploration and development company focused on gold projects in Tasmania and Western Australia announced today its half-yearly results for the period ended 31 December 2006. Managing Directors statement The period has been an exciting and active time for your Company. It has achieved many milestones and continues to move forward on many fronts. Most importantly, exploration activities have yielded many positive results. In Australia an operational base was established close to the work areas. This has proved a positive move that supports field activities on a daily basis. And in London an administrative hub was created to provide for the needs of the investor and the Company. Spending during the period was at budgeted levels and commensurate with the positive exploration results. Your Company is focussed on growth. It makes use of the low cost - high reward phase of mineral exploration and development. The projects are located close to many world-class base metal deposits and other large gold deposits. All of the projects are 100% owned by Greatland, and were either previously operated by major mining companies, or are located adjacent to projects run by some of the largest mining companies in the world. The projects are situated in an area where there is high-grade gold and base metal mineralisation. The location is close, and geology similar to large deposits nearby. Greatland is an energetic company focussed on growth and recently announced drill results were good. Further news will be release shortly. Australia has all the advantages of a stable economic climate, established infrastructure and skilled mining workforce. These points are key when it comes to exploring and successfully mining deposits. The board members are experienced in both the mining and finance sectors and are fully committed to the company's growth strategies. Your Company has a good mix of exciting projects, technical talent, promotional experience, financing capacity and corporate ability. We look forward to the year ahead.
