    * coarse gold indicated by Screen Fire Assays, intersected grades
    enhanced

    * follow up drilling planned for mid June 2003

    The Directors of Giralia Resources NL are pleased to report that
    Screen Fire Assaying has enhanced intersected grades and indicated
    the likely presence of significant coarse particulate gold in drill
    samples from the Mixy lode at the Snake Well Joint Venture in Western
    Australia. Mount Isa Mines Ltd ("MIM") can earn a 60% interest in the
    Snake Well project through expenditure of $3 million over the next 5
    years.

    Gold mineralised 4 metre composite samples from drilling completed
    last month at Snake Well were riffle split in 1 metre intervals and
    analysed by both 50 gram aqua regia digest AAS determination, and
    500 gram Screen Fire Assays. There is significant variation between
    results from the two analytical methods, with Screen Fire Assay
    grades averaging almost 50% higher than aqua regia digest analyses. A
    large proportion of the gold in mineralised intercepts reported to
    the coarse (+75 micron) fraction, indicating the presence of
    significant particulate gold.

    * intersections calculated using a 0.5 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au)
    lower cut-off grade, with up to 3 metres of included internal
    dilution

    These 3 holes, along with previous intersections of 14 metres @ 9.95
    g/t Au and 13 metres @ 5.08 g/t Au, define a 150 metre long, steeply
    dipping mineralised zone at Mixy, open along strike and at depth.

    Follow up drilling to test strike extensions is planned for mid June
    2003. Drilling will also better define extensive near surface
    laterite mineralisation at Snake Well to allow preliminary resource
    estimation.
