         EXCELLENT METALLURGICAL RECOVERIES AT ZHENG GUANG GOLD PROJECT


Leyshon Resources Limited ("Leyshon") (ASX and AIM : LRL) today reports
preliminary results of the metallurgical test work being carried out on drill
core sample from the Zheng Guang Gold Project in Heilongjiang Province,
northeast China.


The test work is being conducted by Perth based Australian Metallurgical and
Mineral Testing Consultants under the direction and supervision of resource
engineering company Ausenco Limited.


Initial results show that over 93% of the gold, 95% of the silver and 98% of the
zinc can be recovered into a flotation concentrate. The flotation and recovery
of the gold, zinc and silver is not particularly grind sensitive and can be
achieved from a relatively coarse primary grind.


The test work results have indicated that the likely treatment route for the
transition and sulphide ore will be two stage flotation and leaching. By
employing this route zinc will be recovered into a concentrate and the gold and
silver recovered into metal by leaching.


Test work is underway to evaluate the appropriate treatment route for the high
grade oxide gold ore which occurs as a surface blanket over much of the
mineralised area. This relatively high grade material appears to have the
potential to be treated via heap leach or conventional milling process routes.


Managing Director Paul Atherley commented. "These high recoveries and the
potential to apply a straightforward process route gives us further strong
encouragement for the economic potential of this exciting new gold project."
