FINDERS RESOURCES LIMITED
Finders Resources Limited (FND AIM/ASX) is pleased to announce the latest
drilling results from the Ojolali gold-silver project (FND 72%) in Sumatra,
Indonesia following a recent program of infill reverse circulation drilling at
the Jambi oxide gold prospect.
The results are extremely encouraging, delivering the best gold assays from the
prospect to date, and strongly support the interpretation of high grade
structurally controlled zones at Jambi.
Assay highlights include:
· 24m @ 3.1 g/t Au at 9m depth in BKJR149, within a zone of 48m @ 2.0 g/t Au
from surface
· 7m @ 9.6 g/t Au at 14m depth in BKJR138, within 19m @ 4.2 g/t Au from a depth
of 11m
· 6m @ 7.1 g/t Au and 161 g/t Ag in BKJR148, within 21m @ 2.9 g/t Au & 85 g/t Ag
from 90m depth
· 7m @ 4.3 g/t Au from surface in BKJR154, within 17m @ 2.6 g/t Au from surface
· 6m @ 3.8 g/t Au from surface in BKJR137, within 10m @ 2.2 g/t Au from surface
Finders' Chairman, Russell Fountain, said the results underpin the strategy to
unlock the value of the Ojolali project, where there are 20 named prospects
located within a 10 x 4km mineralized district.
"The wide zones of near surface oxide gold mineralization will enhance the
potential for a start-up oxide gold mine at Jambi. In addition, resolution of
the structural controls opens up the means for effective targeting of the
outstanding deep exploration potential of the Ojolali area.
The exploration success being achieved at Ojolali combined with the planned
expansion at Finders' Wetar copper project later this year leaves the company in
an excellent position" he said.
In addition to the Jambi drilling, an 18 hole drill program was completed in
June 2010 to test for near-surface enriched silver mineralization at the nearby
Tambang prospect. Results for these holes are awaiting assays which are
expected within the next month.
The results of the 19-hole program at Jambi will be incorporated into an updated
resource estimate to be undertaken by Hellman & Schofield Pty Ltd.
The current Jambi JORC resource has a total combined indicated and inferred
resource of 4.08 million tonnes at a grade of 1.05 g/t Au and 7.6 g/t Ag at a
0.5g/t Au cut off, containing 138,000 oz Au.

The recent Jambi prospect drilling was centered on the intersection of major
north south and north-easterly fault systems and assays show a strong increase
in silver to gold ratios with depth in the central part of the prospect,
indicative of large scale mineral zoning.
The high gold and silver values in BKJR148 comprise the first indication of a
feeder structure for the Jambi mineralization, and opens up a clear target for
significant depth extensions.
Figure 1: Cross Section at Jambi (For location of A-B see Figure 3).
The improved understanding of the structural controls for mineralization greatly
enhances the prospectivity of the Ojolali project area for additional resource
discoveries.
The district is typically characterized by widespread high gold and silver
values in soil samples and these have been supported by encouraging rock channel
samples from trenching activities previously reported.
Drill collar locations and a full listing of the significant assay results,
using a 0.5 g/t Au cut off, maximum 1m of internal dilution, and a minimum of 5
gram*meters minimum intercept, are appended below with accompanying drill plan.
Assays were undertaken by the Intertek Jakarta laboratory (ITS), using 50g fire
assay (Code FA51) for gold, and ICP for other elements.

Background Information on Finders
Finders, listed on AIM and ASX, is the operator of the Wetar Copper Project
(94% and earning), and the Ojolali Gold-Silver Project (72% with option), both
located in Indonesia.
At the Wetar Project, as part of a definitive feasibility study, a demonstration
SX-EW plant with 5t per day copper cathode capacity was commissioned in February
2009 and is permitted to process 100,000t of ore from the Kali Kuning deposit.
The Company is targeting commercial production in two stages of expansion to
reach 23,000 tonnes per year cathode, subject to permitting and project funding.
At the Ojolali Project, Finders controls what it considers to be a major new
epithermal gold district, and has been undertaking an extensive exploration
program comprising detailed drilling to establish an initial mining resource,
supported by extensive surface geophysical and geochemical surveys. Finders
believe that the Ojolali project has strong potential to generate cash flow
through open pit CIL/CIP development of the gold resource at the Jambi Oxide
gold deposit.
