Drilling to Commence at Viking Gold Project in WA
-
Heritage survey completed and RC drill rig secured for a 1,600m drill program
-
Several significant shallow high-grade gold intercepts from previous drilling remain untested at depth
-
The upcoming drill program will target down dip and potential down-plunge extensions to these existing oxide gold intercepts
-
Drilling expected to commence late September and will take approximately two weeks to complete with assays expected within 2-3 months
Falcon Metals Limited ( ASX: FAL ) (“ Falcon ” or “ the Company ”) advises that it is preparing to commence a 1,600m reverse circulation ( RC ) drilling program at the Company’s Viking Gold Project in Western Australia.
Falcon has the right to earn a 70% interest in the Viking Project from ASX-listed Metal Hawk Limited ( ASX:MHK ) (“ Metal Hawk ”). It is located 30km southeast of Norseman in the Northern Foreland of the Albany Fraser Province where historical exploration by previous owners returned numerous highgrade shallow oxide intercepts in aircore and limited reverse circulation / diamond drilling which is awaiting follow up work.
Significant historical results[1] that have yet to be effectively followed up include:
-
5m @ 44.5g/t Au from 50m
-
4m @ 15.4g/t Au from 40m
-
3m @ 8.2g/t Au from 40m
-
3m @ 15.3g/t Au from 28m
The RC drill rig secured by Falcon is expected to mobilise to site in late-September following heritage clearance from the Ngadju, the traditional custodians of the land where Viking is located.
The drilling program is targeting the down dip and potential down-plunge extensions to the previous high-grade intercepts.
Falcon Metals’ Managing Director Tim Markwell said:
“Falcon is delighted to be commencing drilling at its Viking Project, the first campaign at the Project since the Company listed on the ASX in December 2021. The Company’s focus to date has been on its flagship Pyramid Hill Gold Project in Victoria, but with the heritage survey clearance now granted at Viking, Falcon is able to expand its exploration activities to Western Australia.
“The Albany-Fraser province is highly prospective and the high-grade results from previous drilling at Viking present priority walk up drill targets in the same belt that hosts the multimillion-ounce Tropicana gold mine. Falcon looks forward to commencing its drilling at Viking and further expanding its work program in WA.”

Drilling to Commence at Viking
Viking is located 30km southeast of Norseman in WA, within the Dundas Nature Reserve (see Figure 1) and is held via a joint-venture arrangement with Metal Hawk. The key terms of the joint venture are as follows:
-
Initial A$1,000,000 expenditure for Falcon to earn a 51% interest within two years from the grant of the permit
-
On achieving 51% Falcon has the right, but not obligation, to earn a further 19% (70% in total) by funding an additional A$1,750,000 over 30 months
Upon completion of the earn in period, a joint venture will be formed to fund exploration on an ongoing basis.
The Albany-Fraser Province is a high-metamorphic grade terrain dominated by gneisses and reworked granitoids. It is known to host several world-class deposits including the Nova-Bollinger Nickel Mine operated by ASX-listed IGO and the Tropicana Gold Mine operated by AngloGold Ashanti (“ Anglo ”).
Following the discovery of Tropicana in 2005, Anglo stepped up its regional exploration and discovered Viking in 2011 using surface auger sampling. This work defined the four prospects at Viking, referred to as Beaker 1-4 (seeFigure 2). Anglo drilled 513 aircore holes, 14 RC holes and 20 diamond holes prior to divesting the project to Genesis Minerals which continued exploration, drilling a further 87 aircore holes and 29 RC holes until 2019 when the tenement was dropped.
Metal Hawk pegged E69/1963 in 2019 and it was granted in March 2021. This project was jointventured to Chalice Mining in 2020 and was part of the project portfolio demerged into Falcon in December 2021.

Figure 1 Location of the Viking Project
Falcon intends to focus its RC drill program at Beaker Prospects 1 and 2. Beaker 2 is the highest priority target with several high-grade aircore and limited reverse circulation drill intercepts in the oxide zone that have not had any significant follow up drilling including 5m @ 44.5g/t Au[2] from 50m depth in hole 16VKAC044 (see Figure 3). Primary mineralisation intersected to date at Viking is predominantly associated with moderately easterly dipping quartz veins with pyrite associated with shear zones.
The RC drilling at Viking is expected to commence in late September and it will take about two weeks to complete the currently planned for 1,600m.

| Sampling techniques |
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as downhole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. 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 (e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which3 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 (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
Aircore (AC) holes were drilled to blade refusal with samples collected from the cyclone in single metre intervals and laid on the ground in rows of 10 for geological logging. 4 m composite samples weighing approximately 3 kg in total were collected from the sample piles using a scoop and submitted for gold analysis. A 750 g composite sample of the last metre (or 2 m, if bottom of hole (BOH) sample recovery is inadequate) in each hole was collected using a scoop and submitted for multi- element analysis. Reverse circulation (RC) holes were drilled with 1 m intervals collected from the cyclone from a cone splitter. A variable split of approx. 1-in-8 was collected with a final sample weighing ~3 kg. Prior to sending to the lab, samples were re-split into 2 m composite samples with 1 m samples retained. Diamond holes were drilled using HQ2 core in the weathered zones reducing to NQ2 in fresh rock. Sampling was completed on nominal 1 m intervals. It is not known whether half core or quarter core was sent for assay. It is assumed qualitative care was taken to ensure representative sample weights were consistent when sampling, although no evidence can be provided. |
AC holes were drilled to blade refusal with samples collected from the cyclone in single metre intervals and laid on the ground in rows of 10 for geological logging. 5 m composite samples and 1 m BOH samples were taken. For 2017 AC drilling, where 5 m samples returned >0.1 g/t Au, the original 1 m splits were resampled. RC holes were drilled with 1 m intervals collected from the cyclone from a cone splitter. A variable split of approx. 1-in-8 was collected with a final sample weighing ~3 kg. Prior to sending to the lab, samples were re-split into 5 m composite samples with 1 m samples retained in areas of interest. It is assumed qualitative care was taken to ensure representative sample weights were consistent when sampling, although no evidence can be provided. |

| Subsampling techniques and sample preparation |
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique. Quality control procedures adopted for all subsampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. 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. Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. |
For rock chip sampling, QAQC (standards and blanks) was inserted routinely at every 100 samples. For auger sampling, single samples taken from the zone of greatest carbonate reactivity downhole. Samples were not sieved and averaged approximately 300–500 g QAQC. Standards and blanks were each routinely submitted every hundred samples as part of quality control. For AC drilling, 4 m composite samples weighing approximately 3 kg in total were collected from the sample piles using a scoop. Blanks and standards were routinely submitted for quality control purposes, at a nominal ratio of 1:40 samples. For RC drilling, 1 m intervals were collected from the cyclone from a cone splitter. A variable split of approx. 1-in-8 was collected with a final sample weighing ~3 kg. Blanks, normally a quartz sand or non- mineralised granite/dolerite gravel, was inserted at the start of each hole. Standards are then inserted at a ratio of approximately 1-in-35 samples after the blank. For diamond drilling, blanks, normally a quartz sand or non- mineralised granite/dolerite gravel, was inserted at the start of each hole. Standards are then inserted at a ratio of approximately 1-in-35 samples after the blank. No duplicate samples are known to exist for representivity/comparison purposes. Sample sizes are considered appropriate for the style mineralisation targeted. |
For auger sampling, a 3.5-inch hole was drilled to a depth of either 1 m or 1.5 m with a single sample collected and placed in a calico bag. Sample colour and response to a 10% hydrochloric acid test was recorded for carbonate reactivity. QAQC results and/or discussion of which has not been located. For AC drilling, 5 m composite samples and 1 m BOH samples were collected from the sample piles using a scoop. QAQC procedures (which are unknown) including standards and duplicates were followed with no issues noted by Genesis Minerals Limited (Genesis) but this data has not been reviewed by Falcon Metals Limited (Falcon) or CSA Global Pty Ltd (CSA Global). For RC drilling, 1 m intervals were collected from the cyclone from a cone splitter. A variable split of approx. 1-in-8 was collected with a final sample weighing ~3 kg. Standards and blanks were entered into the sample sequence but at an unknown rate. Sample sizes are considered appropriate for the style mineralisation targeted. |

The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total. 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 their derivation, etc. Nature of quality control procedures adopted (e.g. standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (i.e. lack of bias) and precision have been established. |
AC samples were submitted to Genalysis Intertek Laboratory Services for analysis. At the laboratory, samples were dried in an oven at 120°C and then pulverised in an LM5 mill to a nominal size of -75 microns. Samples were analysed using a graphite-furnace AAS (method B25/ETA or AR25/GF) for gold to a detection limit of 1 ppb Au. BOH multi-element samples were further analysed, also at Genalysis, by ICP-MS/OES (GLS method code B25/ETA/MS/OES or AR25/MS). Where anomalous results were encountered in 4 m composite samples, select 1 m re-samples would be taken and submitted for a low-level aqua regia (method B25/ETA or AR25/OE) or fire-assay (method FA25/SAAS using a 50 g charge) analysis. RC samples were dried at approximately 120°C with the total sample then milled in a LM5 pulveriser to a nominal 85% passing of 75 μm. The milled samples were weighed into charges for digestion and analysis. All samples were analysed for gold by lead-collection fire assay, using a 50 g charge with flame-AAS finish (Genalysis method FA50/AA). Diamond drilling samples were analysed at Genalysis. Sample preparation involved drying and pulverising to nominal 85% passing 75 microns. The samples were then analysed for gold by lead-collection fire assay using a 50 g charge with an AAS finish (FA50/AA) to 1 ppb Au detection. |
