Tsodilo Resources Limited Completes Diamond Core Drilling Program on BK16 Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Tsodilo Resources Limited (TSX-V: TSD) ("Tsodilo" or the "Company"
is pleased to announce that its Botswana subsidiary Bosoto (Pty) Ltd (Bosoto) has completed its core drilling program on BK16. The main objective of this stage of the evaluation program of this 5 hectare kimberlite pipe and satellite is to upgrade the geological model. A robust model is required to optimize the outlay of the large diameter drill (LDD) holes for the forthcoming bulk sampling program. The BK16 kimberlite project is located within the Orapa Kimberlite Field (OKF) in Botswana. Botswana diamond mines have produced an average of 27 million carats annually in the last 10 years and Botswana is the worlds largest producer of diamonds by value. In 2014, the OKF area produced 13,355,292 carats. In total, 20 core holes (NQ) were drilled over various part of the intrusion, see Figure 1. Three of these holes were re-drilled due to drilling difficulties for improved core recoveries in difficult ground conditions and hence there are 17 boreholes which will be used in the geological model. Five of these were vertical holes and 12 were inclined also to intersect the kimberlite contact with the country rock. In total 3,662.2 meters were drilled. Figure 1 can be downloaded from the Companys website at: http://www.tsodiloresources.com/i/pdf/BK16-Figure-3.pdf (http://www.tsodiloresources.com/i/pdf/BK16-Figure-3.pdf) . The core has been moved to the Companys facility in Maun where detailed geological (kimberlite facies and estimates of dilution by country rock fragments) and geotechnical (density, fracturing and joint patterns) studies are conducted. All cores have been photographed, logged and magnetic susceptibility readings taken every 20 cm. Samples from selected kimberlite phases have been submitted for petrographic analysis. The core was examined by kimberlite specialist, Dr Jock Robey, macroscopically and microscopically using a binocular microscope. Five different phases of kimberlite were identified: Red volcaniclastic kimberlite VK1, Black VK2, Grey VK3, VKXXX and coherent kimberlite CK1. The Red VK1 occurs as thin irregular skins at the pipe contact, has both basalt and sandstone xenoliths and may have been the earliest kimberlite phase. The Black VK2 occupies most of the eastern part of the Main pipe and consists of pale green to white altered olivine macrocrysts that reach 10 mm in size but which are typically 3 mm in size. The most distinctive feature of the Grey VK3 are the common relatively small ( To view this press release as a PDF file, click onto the following link: http://www.fscwire.com/sites/default/files/ne...y62015.pdf Source: Tsodilo Resources Limited (TSX Venture:TSD) http://www.tsodiloresources.com/s/Home.asp Maximum News Dissemination by FSCwire. http://www.fscwire.com Copyright(C)2015 Filing Services Canada Inc.

Tsodilo Resources Limited Purchases Mobile DMS Treatment Plant Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Tsodilo Resources Limited (TSX-V: TSD) ("Tsodilo" or the "Company" is pleased to announce that it has completed the purchase of a Dense Medium Separation (DMS) treatment plant for use at its BK16 kimberlite project located within the Orapa Kimberlite Field (OKF) in Botswana. Botswana diamond mines have produced an average of 27 million carats annually in the last 10 years and Botswana is the worlds largest producer of diamonds by value. In 2014, the OKF area produced 13,355,292 carats. Tsodilo is completing the diamond core drilling program of 15 holes to a cumulative depth of 2,621 meters on both the main and satellite bodies of kimberlite BK16 in order to develop an advanced geological model. In anticipation of the bulk sampling program which is scheduled to start during the second half of this year, the Company has purchased a DMS mobile plant from De Beers Botswana. This plant is capable of handling a 10 tons/hour head feed throughput and was used in the evaluation of AK06 (Karowe Diamond Mine) owned by Lucara Diamond Corp. It is set up and located just outside the Lethlakane village approximately 15 km directly WNW from the BK16 kimberlite pipe. The plant is equipped among others with primary and secondary crushers (Cone and Jaw), de-sliming screens, conveyors, a scrubber with 12 mm trommel screen, a DMS preparation screen and DMS cyclone (250mm/57mm). It is equipped with a laboratory, security office and concentrate storage units. Photos of the plant can be seen on the companys website at: http://www.tsodiloresources.com/s/Photo_Galle...tID=607642 (http://www.tsodiloresources.com/s/Photo_Gallery.asp?ReportID=607642) . The Company intends to spend some time refurbishing the plant in order to start treatment of the diamondiferous BK16 kimberlite during Phase 1 of the evaluation program towards the end of this year. Using very conservative estimated grades the Company intends to extract and treat some 3,500 tons in order to recover in excess over 200 carats during Phase 1 of the evaluation program. Tsodilo continues to advance its projects in an expedient and cost effective fashion buy utilizing its company owned drill rigs, geophysical equipment and now the DMS processing plant. This allows us to evaluate the potential of our projects in a fast and cost effective fashion which is crucial at any time but especially in todays economic environment. The outlook for diamonds is very positive and we want to move BK16 along as fast as we can. stated Tsodilos Chairman and CEO, James M. Bruchs.
