Notes to Editors:

Kalahari Minerals plc is an AIM and NSX listed resource company with uranium,
gold and base metal interests in Namibia. Its key investment is its 41.1%
holding in ASX, TSX and NSX listed Extract Resources Limited
(www.extractresources.com), which is developing the Husab Uranium Project,
strategically located directly south of Rio Tinto's producing Rossing Mine.
Work is focussing on three main prospects within the project area, Rossing
South, Ida Dome and Hildenhof, and results continue to underpin the
prospectivity of the region, particularly following the world class Rossing
South discovery. Extract has reported a JORC compliant combined Husab Resource
(Global Resource) in excess of 292 M lbs U3O8 at a grade of 439 ppm of which
267 M lbs U3O8 at a grade of 487 ppm is from the two zones at Rossing South at
100 ppm U3O8 cut-off. Importantly, these are both open ended at depth and along
strike. Kalahari believes Extract has the ground and potential to deliver on
Kalahari's estimates of a resource in the region of 550 M lbs U3O8.

Kalahari's other key investment is its circa 44.7% holding in North River
Resources plc, an AIM listed emerging southern African focussed multi commodity
resource development company.
