We present preliminary results from a lattice calculation of tetraquark states in the charm and bottom sector of the type udbb, usbb, udcc and scbb. These calculations are performed on Nf = 2 + 1 + 1 MILC ensembles with lattice spacing of a = 0:12 fm and a = 0:06 fm. A relativistic action with overlap fermions is employed for the light and charm quarks while a non-relativistic action with non-perturbatively improved coefficients is used in the bottom sector. Preliminary results provide a clear indication of presence of energy levels below the relevant thresholds of different tetraquark states in the double bottom sector while a scattering state is observed in the charm sector.
