Gold Links– Colorado USA 100% owned
Share Price (27/10/20) $0.002 Shares on issue 8,210million Market Cap $16.4million UnlistedOptions 10million
The company completed a surface mapping program over the whole of the Gold Links project. The objective of the program was to verify the previously mapped areas by Atlas Precious Metals in the 1980’s over the Gold Links Centre and South and to map the Gold Links North.

Mapping was able to verify all the work that had been carried out by Atlas Precious Metals. The areas previously disturbed and trenched were mapped and several samples were taken across the whole project. At Gold Links North, the location of the ‘Toronto’ and the ‘Wall Street’ shafts have been mapped and are located on the south side of the ‘2150’ vein and the ‘West’ vein respectively. The West vein was discovered by Dateline during the 2019 surface drilling campaign.
Samples were collected across the whole property and due to there being between 3-10 metres of top cover, most of the samples obtained were from the surrounding mine dumps, floats and where possible from exposed shafts. Several of the samples assayed have returned significant gold and silver values including the following.
-
87.3g/t Au, sample CRS000065 from waste dump at the 10,000ft portal
-
28.2g/t Au, sample CRS000070 from Wall Street shaft
-
15.55g/t Au, sample CRS000074 from Wall Street vein dump
-
18.45g/t Au, sample CRS000042 from Raymond vein dump
-
11.85g/t Au, sample CRS000061 from Toronto vein dump
-
13.6g/t Au, sample CRS000039 from the Raymond trench
ASX Release 28 October 2020
The mapping has identified several drill targets that will be followed up either by drilling from underground or from the surface. The priority targets are the Wall Street-West vein and the South side of the 2150 vein towards the Toronto shaft

Impacts of Covid-19
During the September quarter, the company limited its field activities to surface mapping and general maintenance and compliance related tasks. This was done in direct response to the prevailing Covid-19 situation in the USA.
Udu
The company has applied for a three-year extension to its exploration tenements in Fiji. A decision is expected during the December quarter

About Dateline Resources Limited
Dateline Resources Limited (ASX: DTR) is an Australian publicly listed company focused on gold mining and exploration in Colorado, United States of America. The Company owns 100% of the Gold Links project which is located in Gunnison County
The Gold Links is comprised of several contiguous historic gold mines that have been consolidated by the company. Gold Links has produced up to 150,000 oz of highgrade gold (see ASX announcement of 8 February 2019)
Mineralisation can be traced on surface and underground for almost 6km from the Northern to the Southern sections of the project. Well documented records indicate that there are large areas that remain untested at surface and little to no exploration has been done below the valleyfloor.
Dateline also owns the Green Mountain project that hosts the Lucky Strike and Mineral Hill permitted gold properties and has recommissioned a gold processing plant located at the Lucky Strike Mine. The Gold Links and the Lucky Strike are located approximately 50km apart.
Competent Person’s Statement
Exploration information in this announcement is based upon work reviewed by Mr Gregory Hall who is a Chartered Professional of Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (CP-IMM) and undertaken by Mr Allen David V. Heyl who is a Certified Professional Geologist of the American Institute of Professional Geologists (AIPG). Mr Gregory Hall has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a ‘Competent Person’ as defined in the 2012 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’ (JORC Code). Mr Gregory Hall is a non-executive Director of Dateline Resources Ltd and consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on their information in the form and context in which it appears.
