Exterra Resources Limited ("Exterra" or "the Company") (ASX:EXC) is pleased to advise that it has received commitments from professional and sophisticated investors, including existing and new shareholders to raise A$0.5 million, to be used to progress exploration on the Linden Gold project and the Moolyella Lithium Project, in parallel with the Exterra/PYBAR joint development of the Second Fortune gold mine.

SUMMARY:

Successful placement to new investors and existing shareholders to raise A$0.5 million by the issue of 23,809,524 ordinary fully paid shares (Placement Shares) at $0.021 per share with a one (1) for two (2) attaching option with an exercise price of A$0.035 per option and a twelve month term.
Funds raised from the Placement will be used to advance exploration on the Linden Project, including the Golden Orb prospect, the Moolyella Lithium project and other regional projects.
Taylor Collison Ltd Sydney is broker to the Offer

The placement of the shares and options is not subject to shareholder approval and will fall within the Company's placement capacity under ASX Listing Rules.

Taylor Collison will receive a placement fee of 5% on the placement amount managed by Taylor Collison and a management fee of 1% on the total placement amount and will be issued with 3 million, 3 year options exercisable at A$0.035.

A number of existing shareholders have participated in the capital raising, showing continued ongoing support for the Company's strategy to generate shareholder returns going forward.

Exterra's Managing Director John Davis said: "We are very pleased with this successful placement and the support shown by existing and new shareholders to our register. This funding allows Exterra to continue exploration drilling at the Linden project at the exciting Golden Orb prospect, in parallel with the Pybar/Exterra joint development of the Second Fortune gold mine, and to commence ground activities on the Moolyella Lithium project in the Pilbara region of WA.

These activities position Exterra to provide ongoing updates on a number of exploration and development initiatives as we move forward."

GOLD EXPLORATION STRATEGY

The results from the Golden Orb prospect, summarised on Figure 1 below, from the Exterra December 2015 Quarter Activities report, confirm follow-up drilling is required at a number of locations and also confirms the Golden Orb Prospect represents a potential new discovery and a new priority target amongst a growing regional portfolio of targets within this under explored Linden project.

Drilling at the Golden Orb Prospect represents the first ever drilling into this target. The target was first delineated as a surface geochemical anomaly. The average vertical depth of drilling is approximately 20 metres and due to the sparse, shallow nature of the programme, the target is considered open in all directions (see Figure 1). The Prospect, along with the remaining area of the Linden Project (Figure 2), occurs within the prolific Laverton Tectonic Zone. To date this has a gold endowment of in excess of 25M ounces of gold from numerous deposits including Wallaby, Sunrise Dam, Granny Smith, Red October and Mt Morgans. (Figure 3)

LITHIUM EXPLORATION STRATEGY

As released to the market earlier this Quarter12, Exterra has secured an option over the Moolyella Lithium Project. As outlined, the Moolyella Project has a history of Tin (Sn) and Tantalum (Ta) production from mineralised pegmatites from 1898 until 1986 with no systematic Lithium (Li) exploration having been carried out.

Exterra has commenced a review of the project which confirmed reconnaissance rock chip sampling during 2011/12 over an area of 2 sq km recorded the presence of highly anomalous Li in a significant number of samples analysed. At a cut off of 0.1% Li2O, 39 samples distributed over a broad geographical area reported above 0.1% Li2O.

Best results include:

 Sample ID 3004587 1.82% Li2O

 Sample ID 3004651 0.59% Li2O

 Sample ID 3004663 0.52% Li2O

 Sample ID 3004688 0.63% Li2O

Sample ID 46 1.06% Li2O

These results further confirm the potential of the Moolyella Lithium project to host significant Lithium bearing pegmatites. Historic data also reveal that a number of drillholes were completed at Moolyella by previous workers, with assays not undertaken for Lithium. A field visit has confirmed that the drill spoils are still on site and Exterra is currently planning a programme to resample the cuttings for lithium assays, in conjunction with further mapping and rock chip sampling to generate lithium targets for drill testing.
