Crawford Gold Project: Extensional Drilling Underway

Corporate Highlights

5,000m drill program commenced at the Crawford Gold Project

Targets extensional zones beyond the Stage 1 starter pit

Aims to grow the Mineral Resource and support planning for future mine stages

Daniel Tuffin, Executive Technical Director, commented:

“The commencement of extensional drilling at Crawford represents a key step in unlocking the full potential of the greater Crawford project area.

The Stage 1 starter pit is planned to deliver strong early performance, with first gold poured within three months of production and generating gross revenue of A$103.6 million at a gold price of AUD$4,600/oz.

Mining of the starter pit is completed within fourteen months of production commencing, making it critical to get a head start on extensional drilling to expand the resource base and support planning for potential future stages or cutbacks.

The program will focus on near-mine resource development along strike and at depth, while also aiming to extend the northern oxide corridor up to the Miranda hard rock target.”

Cautionary Statement:

The production target and forecast financial information referred to in this announcement comprise Indicated Mineral Resources (99.8%) and Inferred Mineral Resources (0.2%) within the planned Stage 1 starter pit at the Crawford Gold Project. There is a low-level of geological confidence associated with Inferred mineral resources and there is no certainty that further exploration work will result in the determination of Indicated mineral resources or that the production target itself will be realised.

Revised Pre-Feasibility Study, April 2025:

The Company undertook a revised Pre-Feasibility Study ( PFS ) in April of 2025.

The key outputs of the revised PFS are set out in Table 1 below and include a range of comparisons based on various gold prices.

Table 1: Gold Price Comparison Table, Stage 1 Update; PFS Gold Price of A$4,600/oz Highlighted

Gold Price ($A/oz) 4,000 4,200 4,400 4,600 4,800 5,000 5,200 5,400
NPV8 ($A) $39.1M $43.3M $47.5M $51.7M $55.9M $60.1M $64.3M $68.5M
IRR (%) 403% 459% 518% 580% 644% 711% 781% 854%
Payback (Mths) 9.5 9.3 9.1 8.9 8.7 8.5 8.3 8.2
Undiscounted Cashflow $43.4M $47.9M $52.4M $56.9M $61.4M $65.8M $70.3M $74.8M

Pre-Capex Undiscounted $53.2M $57.7M $62.2M $66.7M $71.2M $75.7M $80.2M $84.7M
Cashflow ($A)

Note: Values in the table account for all existing royalties (state and NSR’s) at their relative gold price, but exclude tax, depreciation and amortisation. Some errors may occur due to rounding.

The revised PFS generated the following key outputs:

==> picture [8 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Total Stage 1 project life of 18 months

==> picture [8 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Capital payback period 9 months Gross revenue A$103.6M (includes royalties, A$107.9M excluding royalties) Gold production of 23,467 recovered ounces

Lowest quartile C1 AISC of A$1,574/oz; C3 AISC of A$1,793/oz Pre-production CAPEX of A$9.0M (excludes A$0.8M site closure costs) Total undiscounted pre-CAPEX cash flow of A$66.7M NPV8 of A$51.7M IRR of 580%

For further information on the Revised PFS, including the sensitivity analysis on the gold price, please refer to the ASX announcement on 1 April 2025.

Crawford Ore Reserve

The Ore Reserve relates specifically to the conversion of Indicated Resources to Probable Ore Reserves only within the Crawford Stage 1 pit design and includes consideration of the modifying factors.

Table 2: Crawford Ore Reserve

Reserve Classification Ore Tonnes Gold (g/t) Gold Produced (Oz)
Probable 1,002kt 0.91 29,300
Total 1,002kt 0.91 29,300

Some errors may occur due to rounding. Mineral Resources are reported inclusive of Ore Reserves. Ore Reserves are based on a gold price of $2,900/oz. A cut-off grade of 0.3g/t was calculated based on the base case cost and processing recovery inputs and was used to generate the production schedule and calculate the Ore Reserve. Note that Ore Reserves are susceptible to geological, economic, geotechnical, permitting, metallurgical, mining, processing and other factors.

For more information on the Ore Reserve, please refer to the ASX announcement on 14 March 2024.
