ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 18 March 2025
IP SURVEY DEFINES COPPER GOLD TARGET AT ULARRING
Constellation Resources Limited (the “Company” or “Constellation”) is pleased to advise that a dipole-dipole induced polarisation (“DDIP”) survey has been completed at the Centre Forest Prospect (“Centre Forest”) within the Company’s 100% owned Ularring Copper Gold Project (“Ularring” or the “Project”) in Western Australia.
The survey has successfully defined and enhanced a high-quality chargeable DDIP anomaly which collectively with its relative location to previous drill intersections and relationship within a circular magnetic low, presents as a high-grade intrusion related copper gold target – a style that has generated large deposits within the region.
HIGHLIGHTS
-
DDIP survey results indicate a horizontal plunging >16mV/V chargeability zone over 1.1km x 0.3km in size from 300m with a higher chargeability core > 20mV/V which importantly, is untested by previous drilling .
-
Modelled chargeability peak responses (>16mV/V) are significantly higher in magnitude than the responses modelled over previous copper gold (“Cu-Au”) drill intersections located up dip (Figure 1).
-
The higher chargeability zone identified at Centre Forest may be due to increased sulphide development and if true, a possible vector to discover higher grade Cu-Au mineralisation.
-
A priority diamond drilling program to test the promising intrusion related target is planned to commence in the following months, subject to drill rig availability.

Centre Forest DDIP Survey Program
Centre Forest is the most advanced prospect at Ularring with a continuous lower grade Cu-Au horizon identified from historical drilling that is mappable over strike length of 1.1km and remains open when utilising a >0.1g/t Au cutoff (Figure 2). The mineralisation at Centre Forest is interpreted to be hosted along the prospective Meenar Shear Corridor. Historic petrology analysis and a review of other elements assayed from selected gold intersections demonstrate a relationship with silver, scheelite with a sulphide assemblage comprising of chalcopyrite, bismuthinite, molybdenite, pyrrhotite and tellurides. Hence identifying and testing areas with higher sulphides concentrations may lead to the discovery of higher-grade Cu-Au mineralisation.
The Company previously engaged Core Geophysics to review and reprocess a single DDIP section line conducted by Sipa Exploration (“Sipa”) in 2007 at Centre Forest along Section B-B[1] (Figure 2). Induced Polarisation surveys are well recognised geophysical techniques to assist in identifying areas of increased chargeability - a potential proxy for increased sulphide concentration. The resultant inversion model indicated a promising large low to moderate order chargeability anomaly. The attraction of the Sipa 2007 DDIP chargeability anomaly was its potential as a higher-grade Cu-Au target, as the peak modelled responses (~16mV/V) were located down dip of Cu-Au drillhole intersections and were significantly higher in magnitude when compared to the chargeability response modelled over the drill intersections (6-8mV/V).
To confirm and enhance the working geological model, Constellation recently engaged Khumsup Geophysical Contractors to undertake 3 additional DDIP section lines for 9-line kilometres. Data QAQC and inversion modelling was conducted by Core Geophysics. The modelled results from the newly acquired survey were highly successful in demonstrating the presence of an untested, open coherent, horizontal plunging >16mV/V chargeability zone from 300m depth that is 1.1km x 0.3km in size. A higher chargeability core > 20mV/V has also been inferred that is located to the northeast of the 2007 DDIP chargeable anomaly (Figure 2 and 3).
Importantly all updated DDIP chargeable shell outlines closely follow, or are within, a circular magnetic low interpreted to be a concealed magmatic intrusion (Figure 2). The historical Cu-Au-Ag-Bi-W drill intersections, the quality of the chargeable DDIP anomaly, its location down dip of Cu-Au drill intersections and its relationship within a circular magnetic low, collectively support the working geological hypothesis for a high-grade intrusion related Cu-Au target.
NEXT STEPS
A priority diamond drilling program to test the promising target is on track to commence in the following months – subject to drill rig availability. In conjunction, the Company has submitted an application to the Exploration Incentive Scheme in relation to the drilling program. The initial hole will be a vertical hole testing the highest modelled chargeable zones located along Section A – A[1] and once results are processed, a second hole is planned down dip of BUDD0003 along Section B-B[1 ] (Figure 2 and 3).
OTHER CURRENT PROGRAMS AT ULARRING
An Ultrafine+[TM] soil sampling program is underway in an area north of Centre Forest along the Meenar Shear Zone and the greater Ularring Project area. The first batch of 165 soil samples have been submitted with results pending.

ABOUT THE ULARRING COPPER GOLD PROJECT
The Ularring Project, consisting of tenements E70/4686, E70/4901 and E70/6671 (cumulatively 222km[2] ) is located 100km northeast of Perth (Figure 4). Ularring is situated within the Archaean Yilgarn Craton and borders the Southwest and Youanmi Terranes. Historical drill results and geology indicates a highly prospective Intrusion related Cu-Au system for Ularring, a system style that can generate large scale deposits. The region is known to host several major deposits that are intrusion related, such as the Boddington Copper-Gold mine (11Moz Au and 1Mt of copper produced, hosted in a sheared Intrusive related setting) and Caravel Minerals Limited’s (ASX: CVV) Caravel Copper Project (a porphyry hosted Cu-Mo-Ag-Au deposit containing 3Mt Cu, 61Kt Mo, 895koz Au and 46Moz Ag in Mineral Resource).
Ularring represents an exciting opportunity to not only explore for higher grade Cu-Au zones at Centre Forest but also regionally along the targeted shear corridor (24km of strike), where minimal exploration (if any) has been undertaken. Historical results generated Cu-Au-Bi-Mo-W soil anomalies utilising a variety of sampling methods (soil and auger sampling) and various analytical techniques which are located along strike of Centre Forest and on separate trends.

Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. 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. |

| Geology | Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. |
The Ularring Project is located within the Archaean Yilgarn Craton, in the Corrigin tectonic zone and borders the Southwest and Youanmi Terranes. The region is known to host several economic deposits such as Boddington, the past mined Griffin’s Find, Calingiri, the world-class Julimar PGE-Ni and the 2.84Mt Caravel Minerals Caravel copper deposit. The project area regolith is dominated by loose sand produced by granite gneisses weathering, and the fresh bedrock is dominated by gneisses, banded iron formations, amphibolites, and granulites belonging to the 3.2 – 2.8 Ga Jimperding Metamorphic Belt. This belt extends N-NW for over 120km and varies in width from 15-65km (Wilde and Low, 1978) and was interpreted as mixed mafic, sedimentary sequence intruded by sills of dolerite and ultramafic rocks that were all together subject to regional/granulite facies metamorphism (high temperature and pressure conditions) progressively increasing eastward. The strata dips mostly to the east at moderate to steep angles. The Meenar Shear zone appears to separate the two domains: The western domain dominated by the upper mentioned gneiss and granulite with sedimentary, mafic and ultramafic protolith. The south-western domain is dominated by banded and nebulitic migmatite and gneiss with local banded iron formation (BIF), as well as leucocratic gneiss. The eastern domain dominated by gneiss and migmatite that were intruded by equigranular to porphyritic granite. In the regional context, little is understood about the Meenar Shear zone and its potential for hosting mineralisation. Constellation is currently investigating the geology and the paragenesis of the mineralisation styles observed at Ularring. Preliminary interpretation suggests the presence of granitoid related gold style of mineralisation in the area |

| Drill hole Information |
A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: oeasting and northing of the drill hole collar oelevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar odip and azimuth of the hole. odown hole length and interception depth ohole length. If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case. |
Not applicable. |
| 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. 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 in detail. The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
Not applicable. |
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. 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’). |
Not applicable. |

A representative cross section and plans of drillhole locations and DDIP chargeable anomaly have been provided in the body of the report. |
| Balanced reporting |
Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced avoiding misleading reporting of Exploration Results. |
Commentary and diagrams include all key inputs for balanced reporting. |
| Other substantive exploration data |
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating |
The historical ground IP survey data was completed by GPX Surveys for Sipa Exploration NL in 2003, included with WAMEX report A68847. The survey was collected using a Zonge GGT- 30 transmitter and Zonge GDP-32 Receiver. A single line of Pole-Dipole IP was collected, with 100m dipole spacing to N=8. The data were verified and validated by Core Geophysics. |
