Aldershot Resources Ltd. Update Report

Acquisition of the USA Properties: In March 2011, Aldershot Resources signed an agreement with RoyalResources Limited (Royal Resources) of Australia and its wholly-owned Colorado subsidiary Royal USA Inc.(Royal USA), in which the Company agreed to acquire all of the shares of Royal USA for 35,000,000 Aldershotshares and 51,128,186 warrants. Under the Agreement, Royal Resources subscribed to Aldershot Resources33,000,000 units at a price of $0.05 per Unit for $1.65 million. Royal USAs uranium exploration properties areLynx-Royal JV LLC, Geolynx LLC, Colorado Plateau Partners JV and Arizona Strip Partners JV (see the map
below).
Source: Company
Lynx-Royal JV
The Company: Royal USA has a joint venture with Lynx2 LLC of Salt Lake City in relation to the uranium interestsin the Uravan Mineral Belt. Royal USA currently holds a 90% interest while Lynx2 LLCs 10% interest is freecarried by Royal USA until the completion of the first bankable feasibility study. Royal USA is the operatingmanager of the Lynx-Royal JV.
Composition and Location: The interests are located within the prospective and historically productive UravanMineral Belt of the Colorado Plateau, a uranium/vanadium province in the USA which since 1885 has delivered over30% of the USAs uranium from over 2,500 uranium mining operations, producing at an average grade of 0.32%U3O8. The propertys projects (Wray Mesa and Egnar) are located within trucking distance of the existing WhiteMesa uranium mill and Energy Fuels proposed Pion Ridge mill (see the map below).

Expansion and Exploration: According to our estimates, the JVs landholding totals 6,630 acres, including 28mining claims totalling 579 acres which were added to the Wray Mesa project in October 2011. The new claimsshould completely encompass the high-grade uranium/vanadium deposit associated with the historic Geo #1 mine
(see the map below). The mine was in operation until the late 1980s, when it was shut down due to depressed uraniumpricing. The mine, reportedly, was a producer of high-grade uranium and vanadium.
According to the Company, there is very little current physical data on the Wray Mesa project. Aldershot Resourcesobtained one map containing the mine site and drill holes from 1968-1976. The Company claims that fieldinvestigations, previous drilling results coupled with the data from the old map, and comments from the previousmine foreman and operator make the project a strong target and helped select the drill-hole targets. The current roundof drilling, consisting of up to 15 holes planned for a total of 3,000m, was announced in September 2011. Eight drillholes have been completed to date, with several showing significant mineralization. A full report will be providedupon completion of drilling.

Exploration: The combined historic resource in the potential mining unit created by the Crain Lease and otherproperties owned or controlled by Energy Fuels Resources and CPP is 1.6 million lbs U3O8 and 10.7 million lbsV2O5. These historic resource estimates are based on drilling and reporting by Umetco Minerals. The mining in thisarea ceased at the time of Umetcos report, so the resources are deemed to still be in place. Aldershot Resources plansto evaluate the data package acquired as part of this property purchase, and complete an NI 43-101 technical report bythe end of 2011. Drilling is currently underway on the southern portion of the Sage Plain complex with resultsexpected in December 2011.
Further Development: Preliminary mine permitting activities through the Utah State Department of Oil Gas andMining were supposed to begin in October-November 2011. The Company considers the Sage Plain complex as themost advanced in its pool of projects (see the chart below) and expects that it will evolve into a fully permitted andproduction-ready mining project in 2012.
