New drilling program underway to expand mineralisation at Croydon Gold Project in WA
RC drilling to extend strike and infill shallow gold mineralisation at Top Camp and Bottom Camp prospects and targeting higher-grade shoots
Regional soil sampling, aircore and RC drilling planned for new targets across the Croydon Project; $67m cash on hand
- An extensive new exploration program has commenced, with an immediate focus on expanding the known mineralisation at the Top Camp and Bottom Camp prospects at the Croydon gold project in the Pilbara.
- Drilling from late 2025, coupled with historical drilling at Top Camp, has outlined an extensive gold system over 650m of strike that remains open. Significant intersections include:
- 51m at 1.3g/t Au from 93m in CRC040, including 15m at 2.5g/t Au
- 27m at 3.2g/t Au from 135m in CRC007, including 8m at 10.0g/t Au
- 8m at 1.7g/t Au from 66m in CRC018
- 5m at 3.2g/t Au from 132m in CRC032
- 4m at 5.1g/t Au from 78m in CRC043
- 4m at 3.6g/t Au from 84m in CRC048
- 2m at 22g/t Au from 7m in CRC021
- 28m at 0.6g/t Au from 147m in CRC022
- Drill pads have been cleared to test +900m of strike at Top Camp, with drilling initially focusing on defining higher-grade ore shoots; Bottom Camp will be drilled for the first time since 2020
- CZR anticipates the initial RC drilling at Top Camp and Bottom Camp will take 4-6 weeks to complete and will be followed by RC drilling at the Martin and Murph prospects
- Diamond drilling will focus on recovery of drill core for metallurgical testwork and collection of lithological and structural data to assist the geological interpretation of the Top Camp orebody
- Additional drilling is planned at Frank's Patch and Middle Valley, a gold and pathfinder prospect located 2km west of Top Camp that extends over 3km and has only 2 historical drillholes that intersected bedrock gold mineralisation
- Geological mapping and surface sampling to infill geochem gaps between Top Camp and Frank's Patch is underway along the 5km prospective zone (including Middle Valley)
- A review of the entire Croydon Project has generated multiple exploration targets, with priority being given to targets that host Hemi-style intrusions and elevated gold and pathfinder geochemistry
- CZR remains well funded with $67m cash on hand and debt free

CZR (ASX: CZR) is pleased to announce that drilling is underway at the Croydon gold project in WA's Pilbara, targeting extensions to known mineralisation and high-grade shoots.
Managing Director Stefan Murphy said: "CZR's knowledge of the controls on the mineralisation was greatly enhanced by the drilling conducted late last year.
"This drilling outlined mineralisation over a 650m strike length at the Top Camp prospect and provided key geological information which has been used to design this new program.
"Drilling will target extensions to the known mineralisation at Top Camp and Bottom Camp, high-grade shoots and "Hemi" style intrusions. We will also explore the wider Croydon project, with drilling, mapping and sampling of the many other prospects on our large land holding."

RC drilling has resumed at Top Camp, with a focus on extending the shallow gold mineralisation along strike (Figure 3) while also testing the higher-grade ore shoots down plunge (Figure 4 and 5). RC drilling is expected to take 4-6 weeks to complete (including Bottom Camp drilling), with assays expected in June.
Diamond drilling at Top Camp will focus on collecting drill core for metallurgical testwork and structural measurements to inform the geological interpretation. A deeper diamond hole is also planned under the main mineralised lodes at Top Camp to test the source of the gravity and magnetic anomaly that was not resolved in the 2025 RC drill program. Northern Star's 11.2 Moz Hemi deposit, located 50 km east of Croydon, is hosted in mineralised intrusions often beneath mineralised Mallina sediments. This remains a key targeting criteria for gold mineralisation at Top Camp and our other prospects across the Croydon gold project.

Higher-grade gold intersections from Top Camp show a distinct north-east plunge, likely associated with intersecting structures and sedimentary bedding / fold closures. With the orientation of the higher-grade ore-shoots now better understood, these are priority drill targets.

Exploration Overview

Western Block
Figure 6. Western Block showing gold surface geochem anomalies and drill targets over geological interpretation.
Most gold intersected to date on the Western Block is hosted in northeast-southwest trending shear zones that intersect heavily folded sandstones and dolomitic sediments of the Malina basin. These structural and lithological controls remain a primary target for ongoing exploration within the Western Block, with geological mapping and surface sampling underway, and aircore drilling to be used to build the geochem data set and better define drill targets. Several prospects, including significant gold and pathfinder targets at Franks Patch and Middle Valley have yet to be tested by any historical drilling.
Intrusive rocks have been mapped and inspected by CZR geologists in the southern corner of the Western Block (Mycroft prospect) and south of Frank's Patch and Top Camp (within the Watson prospect). These targets represent early-stage but priority targets for Hemi-style intrusion related gold systems at Croydon.

Over the next 6 months, exploration on the Western Block will focus on growing gold mineralisation at our existing prospects, while in parallel, early-stage exploration (mapping, geochem, etc.) will be undertaken to build our pipeline of targets to drill test.

Eastern Block
Exploration on the Eastern Block will focus on the margins of the central intrusion, where gold and copper mineralisation has been recorded at the Martin and Murph prospects, and at new targets in favourable geological locations for gold mineralisation that remain hidden by cover.
The 11.2 Moz Hemi discovery was a blind discovery under transported cover and the Eastern Block at Croydon has similar regolith, with extensive transported cover. Several lines of aircore drilling, particularly at the Baskerville target, have been planned to test cover depth and sample the bedrock for Hemi-style intrusion related gold.
Drill pads have been cleared at the Murph and Martin prospects, with several stratigraphic holes planned to test the contact of the central intrusion. Drilling is also planned to test an EM conductor plate modelled under the Martin gossan where rock chip samples taken from old workings returned 11.6% copper, 2.8g/t gold, 31g/t silver and 7.4% zinc (ASX announcement 6 December 2018). The Martin Gossan is hosted in the same stratigraphy and considered analogous to the Anax Metals' Evelyn copper deposit, located 7km to the west.

The Moriarty and Baker Street prospects are in a favourable geological setting, located on the edge of the central intrusion between the Murph and Martin prospects and within a large fold closure. The area is prospective for repeats of the Martin Gossan and Evelyn copper-zinc deposit, as well as a potential fluid pathway and trap for gold mineralisation. Surface mapping and geochemistry are being used to build these as future drill targets.
About Croydon
The Croydon Gold Project, located in Western Australia's Pilbara region, comprises two principal tenure blocks - the Western Block and the Eastern Block, together covering approximately 40 km of highly prospective strike within the Mallina Basin (Figure 8). The project is strategically positioned approximately 50 km south-west of Northern Star Resources' 11.2 Moz Hemi gold deposit, which was acquired through the $5 billion merger with De Grey Mining (NST ASX Announcement: 2 December 2024).
