Director's Interest in Shares and Appendix 3Y

 

The Directors of Thor Mining PLC ("Thor" or the "Company") (AIM, ASX: THR) have become aware of an error regarding a Director's interest in shares in an AIM announcement dated 21 July 2011 and in subsequent disclosures such as the Company's Annual Report.

 

The AIM announcement dated 21 July 2011 and subsequent disclosures made by the Company overstated Trevor Ireland's direct holding in Ordinary Shares by 500,000 CDIs.

 

The correct interest held by Mr Ireland as at today's date is 3,298,980 CDIs representing 0.36% of the issued share capital of the Company and 2,000,000 Unlisted Options exercisable at $0.04 on or before 24 November 2013, held as follows:

 

Held directly	2,000,000 Unlisted Options exercisable at $0.04 on or before 24/11/2013. 2,448,980 Ordinary Shares.
Held indirectly	850,000 Ordinary Shares held by Mrs Carolyn Ireland

 

 

Thor today released the following announcement on the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") as required under the listing rules of the ASX. The announcement advises of a correction of the above mentioned error in the ASX Appendix 3Y announcement dated 12 April 2012.
