Underground Resource Expansion Drilling at Tomingley

  • Underground core drilling at Tomingley is focussed on step out drilling to define extensions to resources as well as pre-mining grade control within existing defined resources/reserves.

  • At the Caloma Two deposit, underground resource expansion drilling of 91 holes for 15,439 metres tested mineralised structures separate from the defined resources. These are known as Lodes 81, 85 & 86, with individual drill holes often intercepting all three lodes. Selected intercepts for each lode include:

  • Further drilling will be programmed within these Lodes once an initial appraisal is completed, seeking to raise the status to Ore Reserves in anticipation of mining.

  • Underground drilling continues at the Caloma One, Wyoming One and Roswell deposits.

Alkane Resources Limited (ASX: ALK) (‘Alkane’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce the latest results for underground expansion drilling around the existing resources at the Company’s Tomingley Gold Operations (Tomingley) in Central New South Wales.

Alkane Managing Director Nic Earner said: “Most of Tomingley’s deposits remain open at depth and along strike. This drilling demonstrates the significant resource expansion potential at Caloma Two. Underground drilling continues at other deposits.

“We will now evaluate the economic recovery potential of these new lodes, which may result in further drilling to allow inclusion into our reserves. With the continued expansion of the ore that can be mined, the future of Tomingley is very bright.”

Tomingley Gold Operations (TGO)

Alkane Resources Ltd 100%

Tomingley Gold Mine is an open pit and underground mining development with a 1Mtpa processing facility in operation since 2014. The development is located near the village of Tomingley, approximately 50 kilometres southwest of Dubbo in Central West New South Wales. Tomingley Gold Operations Pty Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of Alkane.

Mining at Tomingley has been based on the Wyoming One, Wyoming Three, Caloma One and Caloma Two gold deposits. Throughout FY24, mining occurred underground at Wyoming One, Caloma One and Caloma Two. The mineralisation and associated sericite-carbonate-albite-quartz-pyrite-arsenopyrite alteration assemblage at Tomingley is typical of orogenic lode style gold deposits which are located within a tightly folded Ordovician aged volcano-sedimentary sequence.

Mineralised fluids are interpreted to have been focused by differential strain in and around andesite sills due to the rheological competency contrast between the sills and the bounding volcaniclastic sediments. The brittle nature of the sills often leads to the development of shear-hosted sheeted quartz vein and breccia deposits within and adjacent to the andesite bodies. Separately, thin carbonaceous mudstone strata appear to have been a focus for shearing and a chemical trap for gold.

Since underground mining commenced in 2018, extensive underground drilling has been employed to define ore reserves for extraction and maintain exploration to define additional resources. The most recent Reserves and Resources were summarised in the ASX release 4 September 2024 Annual Resources and Reserves Statement FY24.

Throughout FY25 ore has been extracted from the Caloma One, Caloma Two and Wyoming One deposits with the recently accessed Roswell deposit (Tomingley Extension Project) on stream in April 2024 (ASX announcement 22 April 2024) via a 3km decline from the Wyoming One open cut.

The current exploration focus at Tomingley is to define additional underground resources that lie outside the existing Resource and Reserves model for the operation. At Caloma Two, 91 core holes for 15,439m have been completed. These holes have been drilled from specific platforms on development levels within the mine in a fan configuration to achieve a nominal 20m by 15m intercept pattern to inform an initial Indicated Resource.

The holes are geologically logged and sampled to provide potential mine shapes, designated as Lodes. There are currently 26 Lodes within the Caloma Two deposit. The data in this document primarily relates to the drilling of Lodes 81 and 85. These Lodes currently have an approximate strike length of 260m, and a width of 5-10m from a depth of 160m to 310m below the surface. The lodes dip 60-80 degrees to the west and appear to have a shallow plunge of 15 degrees to the north. Lodes 81 and 85 are both open along strike to the north and down dip.

Commentary
Sampling
techniques

Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised
industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation,
such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These
examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
The Caloma Two area has been evaluated using air core (AC), reverse circulation (RC) and
diamond drilling (DD) techniques between May 2007 (early reconnaissance) and March
2012. Not all of this drilling lies within the current resource outline, there is some overlap in
drilling with the southern end of Caloma (although there is no overlap in resources) and
none of the air core drilling samples were used in the resource calculation.
o
AC - 48 holes for 3424m
o
RC - 196 holes for 28404m (inclusive of 2 pre-collar totalling 72m)
o
RC Grade Control – 443 hole for 15361m
o
DD - 431 holes totalling 66102.78m
o
FS – 280 faces for 1691.7m
o
Sludge samples 2 hole for 14.9m
RC samples were collected at one metre intervals via a cyclone and riffle or cone splitter.
DD sample intervals were defined by geologist during logging to honour geological
boundaries.
During the 2015 4 Geotech diamond holes were drilled into the Caloma Two deposit. These
are included in the total DD holes drilled.

Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the
appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.
RC drilling completed to industry standards.
Core was laid out in suitably labelled core trays. A core marker (core block) was placed at
the end of each drilled run (nominally 3 or 6m) and labelled with the hole number, down
hole depth, length of drill run. Core was aligned and measured by tape, comparing back to
this down hole depth consistent with industry standards.

Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In
cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg
‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was
pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation
may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may
warrant disclosure of detailed information.
RC Drilling - approximately 10% (3-4kg) of total sample was delivered via cone or riffle
splitter into a calico bag (for shipment to laboratory if required) with the remaining sample
delivered into a large plastic bag and retained for future use if required.
DD Drilling – All exploration sample intervals defined were by geologists during logging to
honour geological boundaries and cut in half with a saw.
All underground diamond holes drilled NQ2 are full core sampled.
All samples sent to laboratory were crushed and/or pulverised to produce a ~100g pulp for
assay process.
All RC and core samples were fire assayed using a 50g charge.
Visible gold was occasionally observed in both core and RC samples

Drilling
techniques

Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger,
Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of
diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by
what method, etc).
The resource reported in in the annual R&R statement FY24 is based on 196 RC drill holes
totalling 28,404 metres and 301 diamond core drill (DD) holes totalling 43919 metres. The
in-pit grade control RC drilling was also used in the resource estimation.
Detailed resource definition drilling was completed by RC techniques using a 130mm or
140mm diameter face sampling hammer.
DD holes were pre-collared using either RC techniques or un-oriented PQ3 (83mm
diameter) core drilling. Pre-collars were completed to competent material, with holes cased
off and completed to depth using HQ3 (61mm diameter) core. HQ3 core was oriented using
the “Ace” (Reflex Act) core orientation tool.
The 21/22 surface and Underground diamond drill program was undertaken drilling NQ
core.
Drilling data used in the establishment of resource wireframes and the FY 24 resource
calculation is comprised of:
o
55% RC – 639 holes totalling 53,743.85m (inclusive of 2 pre-collar totalling 72m)
o
45% DD – 301 holes totalling 437919m
o
This additional drilling of 91 diamond holes which form part of this ASX
announcement is not within the current reported FY24 resource for Caloma 2.
Drill sample
recovery

Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results
assessed.
RC sample recovery was visually estimated and was generally very good (>90%) aided by
the use of oversized shrouds through oxide material. Samples were even in size. Samples
were rarely damp or wet. Sample quality was assessed by the sampler by visual
approximation of sample recovery and if the sample was dry, damp or wet. Riffle and cone
splitters were used to ensure a representative sample was achieved for 1 metre samples.
DD - core loss was identified by drillers and calculated by geologists when logging.
Generally ≥95% was recovered and any loss was usually in portions of the oxide zone.
Triple tube Large diameter, triple tube core (PQ3) was used through the oxide material to
ensure the greatest recovery.

Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the
samples.
RC drilling was completed using oversized shrouds to maintain sample return in oxide zone
and all samples were split using riffle or cone splitters. Use of RC rigs with high air capacity
assists in keeping samples dry.
Triple tube coring was used at all times to maximise core recovery with larger diameter
(PQ3) core used in the oxide and saprolite zones.

Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample
bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.
There is no known relationship between sample recovery and grade.
Logging
Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a
level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and
metallurgical studies.
RC - each one metre interval was geologically logged for characteristics such as lithology,
weathering, alteration (type, character and intensity), veining (type, character and intensity)
and mineralisation (type, character and volume percentage).
DD - all core was laid out in core trays and geologically logged for characteristics such as
lithology, weathering, alteration (type, character and intensity), veining (type, character and
intensity) andmineralisation(type, characterandvolume percentage). Abriefgeotechnical

log was also undertaken collecting parameters such as core recovery, RQD, fracture count,
and fracture type and orientation.

Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc)
photography.
All logging was qualitative with visual estimates of the various characteristics. Magnetic
susceptibility data is quantitative.
RC - A representative sample of each one metre interval is retained in chip trays for future
reference.
DD - Core was photographed and all unsampled core is retained for reference purposes.

The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged.
All DD core and RC chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged by
qualified geologists.
Sub-sampling
techniques and
sample
preparation

If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken.
DD - zones of visual mineralisation and/or alteration were marked up by the geologist and
cut in half using an Almonté (or equivalent) core cutting saw. Samples submitted for
analysis were collected from the same side in all cases to prevent bias. Sampling intervals
were generally based on geology, were predominantly over 1m intervals but do not exceed
1.3 metres in length. All mineralised zones were sampled, plus ≥2m of visibly barren wall
rock.
Laboratory Preparation – drill core was oven dried prior to crushing to <6mm using a jaw
crusher, split to 3kg if required then pulverised in an LM5 (or equivalent) to ≥85% passing
75µm. Bulk rejects for all samples were discarded. A pulp packet (±100g) is stored for
future reference

If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or
dry.
RC – for intervals with visual mineralisation and/or alteration, the calico sample bag (1m
samples) were numbered and submitted to the laboratory for analysis. Intervals without
visual mineralisation and/or alteration were spear sampled and composited over three
metres. For composited intervals returning grades >0.2g/t Au the calico bags were
retrieved for assay of the individual1 mintervals. Rare damp or wet samples were
recorded by the sampler.
Laboratory Preparation – the entire RC sample (3kg) was dried and pulverised in an LM5 (or
equivalent) to ≥85% passing 75µm. Bulk rejects for all samples were discarded. A pulp
packet (±100g) is stored for future reference.

For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation
technique.
Alkane (ALK) sampling techniques are of industry standard and considered adequate.

Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise
representivity of samples.
RC – field duplicate samples collected at every stage of sampling to control procedures.
DD – external laboratory duplicates used.

Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material
collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling.
RC - Duplicate samples were riffle split from the riffle/conical split calico from the drill rig.
Duplicates show generally excellent repeatability, indicating a negligible “nugget” effect.

Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled.
Sample sizes are industry standard and considered appropriate.

The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures
used and whether the technique is considered partial or total.
Gold was determined using a 50g charge fused at approximately 1100°C with alkaline fluxes,
including lead oxide. The resultant prill was dissolved in aqua regia and gold determined by
flame AAS.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Quality of
assay data and
laboratory tests
For other geochemical elements, samples were digested in aqua regia with each element
concentration determined by ICP Atomic Emission Spectrometry or ICP Mass Spectrometry.
These additional elements were generally only used for geological interpretation purposes,
are not of economic significance and are not routinely reported.

For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters
used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times,
calibrations factors applied and theirderivation, etc.
Not applicable to this report or these results as no geophysical tools, spectrometers,
handheld XRF instruments, etc were used to gather the exploration data.

Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg standards, blanks, duplicates,
external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias)
and precision have been established.
Commercially prepared Certified Reference Materials (CRM) and blanks were inserted at 1 in
50 samples. CRM’s were not identifiable to the laboratory.
Field duplicate samples were inserted at 1 in 50 samples (alternate to CRM’s).
Laboratory QAQC sampling includes insertion of CRM samples, internal duplicates and
screen tests. This data was reported for each sample submission.
Failed standards result in re-assaying of portions of the affected sample batches.
Screen fire assay checks (75µm mesh) were undertaken on 110 drill core samples. Screen
fire assay data overrides all other methods.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying

The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative
company personnel.
Drill data was compiled and collated, and reviewed by senior staff. External consultants do
not routinely verify exploration data until resource estimation procedures are deemed
necessary.

The use of twinned holes.
Twinned holes have not been used at Caloma Two as twinning provides verification only for
extremely limited areas of a deposit.

Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage
(physical and electronic) protocols.
All drill hole logging and sampling data was hard keyed into Excel spreadsheet for transfer
and storage in an access database with verification protocols in place.
All primary assay data was received from the laboratory as electronic data files which were
imported into sampling database with verification procedures in place. QAQC analysis was
undertaken for each laboratory report.
Digital copies of Certificates of Analysis (COA) are stored in a central database with regular
(daily) backup. Original survey data is stored on site.
Data was also verified on import into mining related software.

Discuss any adjustment to assay data.
No assay data was adjusted. Screen fire assays take precedence over all other assay
techniques.
Location of
data points

Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down-hole
surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource
estimation.
Drill holes were laid out using hand held GPS (accuracy ± 2m) then surveyed accurately (±
0.1m) by licensed surveyors on completion.
RC drill holes were surveyed using a single shot electronic camera at a nominal 30m down
hole intervals.
DD holes were surveyed at nominal 30m down hole during drilling to maintain drilling
direction and then at 6m intervals on retrieval of rod string using a multi shot electronic
camera.

Specification of the grid system used.
All drill holes were originally laid out in AMG66 grid however since mining commenced in
February 2014 have been transformed to MGA94 grid system to conform with reporting
requirements for mine operations.

Quality and adequacy of topographic control.
The area is very flat. A site based digital terrain model was developed from accurate (±
0.1m) survey control by licenced surveyors.
Data spacing
and distribution

Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.
Exploration Drilling was completed on north-south sections spaced nominally 20m apart
with holes spaced at 20m intervals along the lines. The line spacing was increased to a
nominal 40m in zones thought peripheral to the main ore body and to the east.
Underground grade control infill drilling and the 20/21 surface infill drilling was completed
on a nominal 15x20m spacing. The drill hole spacing is similar to that used at other
Tomingley deposits and has been established to be sufficient. Some areas have been
reduced to 15 x 15 due to the structural complexity of certain areas.

Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of
geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve
estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied.
The drill hole spacing has been shown to be appropriate by the visible continuity of
mineralisation between drill holes. In some areas the drill spacing has been reduced.

Whether sample compositing has been applied.
Sample compositing was not applied until resource estimation stage.
RC samples with no visible mineralisation or alteration were composited to 3m with 1m
resamples assayed if the composite returned a gold value of >0.2g/t gold. One metre
samples override 3m composites in the database.
DD – core was sampled to geology.
Orientation of
data in relation
to geological
structure

Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures
and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type.
Much care was given to attempt to intersect mineralisation at an optimal angle but in
complex ore bodies this can be difficult. The chosen drilling direction (south at inclination of
-60°) is consistent with structural measurements obtained from oriented drill core.

If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised
structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed
and reported if material.
It is not thought that drilling direction will bias assay data at Caloma Two.
Sample
security

The measures taken to ensure sample security.
All samples were bagged in tied numbered calico bags, grouped into larger tied polyweave
bags and transported to the laboratory in Orange by Alkane personnel or courier. S ample
submission sheets were delivered with the samples and also emailed to the laboratory. All
sample submissions were documented via ALS tracking system and all assays were
reported via email.
Sample pulps were returned to site and were stored for an appropriate length of time
(minimum 3 years).
The Company has in place protocols to ensure data security.
Audits or
reviews

The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data.
The Company does not routinely have external consultants verify exploration data until
resource estimation procedures are deemed necessary.
The Caloma Two data has not been audited nor reviewed by external parties however the
data for other deposits within the TGP was reviewed in 2010 and 2011 by Behre Dolbear
(BDA). BDA did not express anyspecific concerns with respect to the data other than to

All reported drilling has been completed by ALK.
Geology
Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.
Geological nature of the Tomingley Deposits is well documented elsewhere.
Mineralisation is associated with quartz veining and alteration focused within sub-volcanic
basaltic-andesite sills and adjacent volcaniclastic sediments. The deposits appear to have
formed as the result of a rheological contrast between the porphyritic sub-volcanic sills and
the surrounding volcaniclastic sediments, with the sills showing brittle fracture and the
sediments ductile deformation, and have many similarities to well documented orogenic -
lode-style gold deposits.
Mineralisation at Caloma Two is developed within a series of ‘quartz lodes’ which dip north
at flat to moderate angles and hosted dominantly within the sub-volcanic sills.
Mineralisation is also developed along a sediment contact zone which appears to be a
potential linking structure with the Caloma mineralisation to the north. There is also
evidence for the development of an inverted saddle reef at depth. The lodes are cross cut
by a number of post mineralisation dolerite dykes.

o

Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or
minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually
Material and should be stated.
Previously reported results have been –
For uncut gold grades;
Intercepts were defined (bounded) by 0.5g/t gold outer limit and may contain some internal
waste;
Only intervals grading ≥1 g/t gold were reported;
Grades were calculated by length weighted average.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer
lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated
and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown indetail.
Exploration results have been previously reported as length weighted average grades with
internal high grade intercepts reported separately.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly
stated.
No metal equivalents are reported.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths
These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results.
o
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its
nature should be reported.
o
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a
clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’).
Previously reported exploration results include the drilled width and an estimate of true width.
The mineralisation is structurally complex and true widths are variable depending on the ore
zone intersected however range between 60% and 80% of drill intersection.
