Simon Rollason CEO of Aterian #ATN says the results that indicate the presence of sediment-hosted copper mineralisation, at the Company's recently acquired Tata Project in Morocco, is very exciting given they still have a significant strike length of over 25 km to explore and sample.

Highlights:

· Stratiform sediment-hosted copper mineralisation identified within Adoudounian sediments occurring on the flanks of a Proterozoic inlier.

· 2.05 % Cu reported from a dolomite float sample located adjacent to the contact between Adoudounian sediments and the Proterozoic inlier.

· Results include 0.95 % Cu from a 4 m thick dolomitic sequence and 0.87% Cu from an 8 m thick sequence of dolomite and marl.

· 25.5 km of Adoudou Formation strike extension remains untested within the Project.

· Copper mineralisation is also identified within younger units overlying the Adoudou Formation.

· The Project hosts a mapped historical copper-gold and gold occurrence.

· The Project is located 50 km southeast of the Tizert copper mine (mineralisation hosted at Tizert is not necessarily indicative of mineralisation at Tata).

· The Company's recently acquired Moroccan projects are located in established current and historic copper and silver mining districts.

·  The Company holds 15 highly prospective projects in Morocco, totalling 762 km2.
