ASX Announcement: 21 October 2021

OUTSTANDING AIR-CORE RESULTS OF UP TO 8.6g/t OUTLINE LARGE-SCALE OXIDE GOLD TARGET AT JULIAS

Wide zones of shallow mineralisation intersected over a strike length of at least 1.2km

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Strong, near-surface oxide gold mineralisation intersected at the greenfields Julias target zone, located ~5km north-west of the existing 240koz Mineral Resource at the Gidgee Gold Project.

  • Significant results from this substantial new shallow high-grade oxide gold zone include:

  • GWAC0971: 13m @ 4.0g/t Au

  • GWAC0972: 3m @ 7.2g/t AuGWAC0974: 14m @ 1.1g/t AuGWAC0978: 7m @ 1.6g/t Au, and 1m @ 8.6g/t Au

  • GWAC0965: 24m @ 1.4g/t Au

  • The Julias target is now interpreted to extend south into the neighboring Flametree target zone, where drilling by Gateway in 2020 intersected[1] :

  • GWAC0267: 5m @ 10.4g/t Au

  • GWAC0256: 4m @ 3.8g/t AuGWAC0257: 9m @ 1.1g/t AuGWAC0247: 5m @ 3.8g/t AuGWAC0246: 3m @ 3.5g/t Au

  • Systematic drilling to be prioritised to evaluate the potential of this exciting new target with Reverse Circulation drilling to commence in late November and further air-core drilling early next year.

Gateway Mining Limited (ASX: GML) ( Gateway or Company ) is pleased to advise that it has intersected a significant zone of shallow oxide gold mineralisation in air-core ( AC ) drilling at the Julias target zone, within its Gidgee Gold Project in the Murchison region of WA.

Julias is located on a highly prospective litho-structural corridor approximately 5km to the west of the 240,000oz Inferred Montague-Whistler gold deposits[2] and immediately north of the previously defined gold mineralisation at Flametree (Figure 3). The results continue to demonstrate the wider potential of the Gidgee Project, and support Gateway’s strategy of systematically developing and drill testing targets within this 5km radius.

KEY POINTS:

  • Significant near-surface oxide gold mineralisation has been intersected at Julias over a strike length of ~1.2km, building on and enhancing a series of significant historical intersections. Results include:

  • GWAC0971: 13m @ 4.0g/t Au from 30m

  • GWAC0972: 3m @ 7.2g/t Au from 26mGWAC0974: 14m @ 1.1g/t Au from 37mGWAC0978: 7m @ 1.6g/t Au from 22m; and 1m @ 8.6g/t Au from 41m

  • GWAC0965: 24m @ 1.4g/t Au from 16mGRC294: 17m @ 1.3g/t Au from 54m[3]GRC196: 14m @ 2.9g/t Au from 67m[4]GRC180: 25m @ 1.5g/t Au from 65m[5]

2 3,425,000 tonnes @ 2.2g/t for 240,000 ounces of contained gold. See ASX announcement dated 3 October 2019 3 ASX announcement 21st July 2014

4 ASX announcement 23rd April 2008

5 ASX announcement 19th October 2005

  • The results also extend towards the Flametree target zone, located approximately 500m along trend to the south where significant zones of near-surface oxide gold mineralisation have previously been defined by Gateway. Significant results include [6] :

  • GWAC0267: 5m @ 10.4g/t Au from 52m

  • GWAC0256: 4m @ 3.8g/t Au from 20m

  • GWAC0257: 9m @ 1.1g/t Au from 17mGWAC0247: 5m @ 3.8g/t Au from 23mGWAC0246: 3m @ 3.5g/t Au from 44m

  • The significant oxide gold mineralisation is located on a sheared contact between sedimentary siltstones and overlying volcanic-derived sediments. This coherent zone of mineralisation appears to correspond to a gossan representing a weathered pyrite-rich zone within the shear. Existing geophysical datasets suggest this corridor extends for a further 1.5km north along strike, with no effective drill testing.

  • Results from this air-core program have confirmed Julias as a significant oxide gold target, located on a granted Mining Lease, within 5km of Gateway’s existing Mineral Resources. This successful drilling is further validation of Gateway’s strategy of systematically advancing a pipeline of targets within this 5km Mineral Resource radius.

Figure (2): Julias air-core drilling cross section 6,969,150mN

A total of 27 holes for 1,991m of air-core drilling were completed at Julias. Drilling was designed as a series of selected holes within the existing Julias drill pattern, which is on nominal 50m spaced sections. Sampling on these holes was undertaken on 1m intervals.

The southern strike extensions toward Flametree were drilled on nominal 100m-spaced sections, with holes spaced 40m along section (Figure 3). Sampling on these southern step-out lines was undertaken as 4m composite samples. All significant intersections received from the Julias air-core drilling are detailed in Table 1, with full details of the drill program outlined in the JORC Table 1 included as an Appendix to this release.

Following receipt of these significant results from Julias, Gateway plans to systematically drill test the potential of this extended Julias-Flametree target zone, which now extends for over 2km. The Company believes that the southern and northern strike extents to mineralisation are also still open. Additional air-core drilling to test these extensions will be undertaken as part of the extensive air-core drill campaign planned to commence in February 2022.

Management Comment

Gateway’s Managing Director, Mr Mark Cossom, said: “These outstanding results from air-core drilling have opened up the Julias-Flametree trend as a new priority focus for our exploration team. Achieving broad zones of oxide mineralization grading up to 8.6g/t is a fantastic result for air-core drilling, and we are particularly pleased to see the strong correlation between these results and previous drilling in this area.

“We are committed to building a strong pipeline of exploration targets within 5km of our existing Resources at Gidgee and this new area joins other exciting targets to be systematically evaluated over the next 12 months. With work well advanced on our Mineral Resource update – which we expect to finalise towards the end of this year – we are looking forward to a very active and productive end to the year for Gateway shareholders.”

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections)

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
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 down hole 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 which 3 kg was
pulverized 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.

Air-core drill holes GWAC0954 – GWAC0967) - 2kg - 3kg nominal 4m composite
samples were collected via spear method from from dry 1m bulk samples. End of hole
samples were collected as separate 1m spear sample.

Air-core drillholes GWAC0968 – GWAC0980 were collected as 2kg - 3kg riffle split
single metre samples at the rig during drilling. Wet or moist samples were 1m spear
sampled.

The bulk reject from the sample was dumped into neat piles on the ground.

Field duplicates were collected at a ratio of 1:50 and collected at the same time as the
original sample. OREAS certified reference material (CRM) was inserted at a ratio of
1:50. The grade ranges of the CRM’s were selected based on grade populations and
economicgrade ranges.
Drilling
techniques

Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger,
Bangka, sonic, etc.) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of
diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by
_what method, etc.). _

Air-core – Bostech Drilling drill rig was used. The rig consisted of a custom built truck
mounted air-core rig with 700cfm x 350psi on board compressor.
Drill
sample
recovery

Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results
assessed.

Measures taken to maximize sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the
samples.

Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether
sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.

During the air-core sample collection process, the sample sizes were visually
inspected to assess drill recoveries.

The majority of samples were of good quality with ground water having minimal
effect on sample quality or recovery.

From the collection of recovery data, no identifiable bias exists.
Logging
Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to
a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies
and metallurgical studies.

Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel,
etc.) photography.

The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged.

Air-core bottom of hole chips were washed and stored in chip trays for each hole.

Chips were visually inspected and logged to record lithology, weathering, alteration,
mineralisation, veining and structure.

Data on rock type, deformation, colour, structure, alteration, veining, mineralisation
and oxidation state were recorded.
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary

Loggingis bothqualitative andquantitative in nature.
Sub-sampling
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 sub-sampling 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.

Samples were spear sampled from dry, 1m bulk sample and combined into a nominal
4m composite sample. The End of hole sample was collected as a 1m spear sample.

Air-core drillholes GWAC0968 – GWAC0980 were collected as 2kg - 3kg riffle split
single (1m) metre samples at the rig during drilling. Wet or moist samples were 1m
spear sampled.

The QC procedure adopted through the process includes:

Field duplicates were collected at a rate of 1: 50, these were collected during
RC drilling at the same time as the primary sample.

OREAS certified material (CRM) was inserted at a rate of 1:50, the grade ranges
of the CRM’s were selected based on grade populations.

2-3kgs of sample was submitted to the laboratory.

Samples oven dried then pulverized in LM5 mills to 85% passing 75micron.

All samples were analysed for Au using the Au-AA26 technique which is a 50g
lead collection fire assay. End of hole samples were also analysed for a 48
element multi-element analysis via 4-acid digest and ICP-MS determination
Quality of assay
data
and
Laboratory tests

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) andprecision have been established.

Drill samples were submitted to ALS (Perth). All samples were analysed for Au by a
50g fire assay (AAS finish) which is a total digest assay technique. End of hole samples
were also analysed for a multi-element suite via 4-acid digest and ICP-MS.

Field duplicates were collected at a rate of 1:50 with CRM’s inserted at a rate of 1:50
also. The grade ranges of the CRM’s were selected based on grade populations.
Verification
of
sampling
and
assaying

The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative
company personnel.

The use of twinned holes.

Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data
storage (physical and electronic) protocols.

Discuss any adjustment to assay data.

Drilling results are cross checked by company geologists.

Data is recorded digitally at the project within MicroMine Geobank software, assay
results are received digitally.

All data is stored within DataShed SQL Database.
Location of data
points

Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down-hole
surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource
estimation.

Specification of the grid system used.

Quality and adequacy of topographic control.

Drill hole location is initially recorded with a handheld Garmin GPS (+/- 3m). Definitive
hole locations are determined at the end of the program by surveyor pick-up utilising
RTK-DGPS. All holes are located in MGA (1994) -Zone 50.

Hole dips are determined at the collar by clinometer, with no down-hole surveys
collected
Data

Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.

Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of
geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve
estimationprocedure(s) and classifications applied.

Holes were drilled on nominal 100m and 50m spaced lines, on 40m and 25m spaced
centres along the lines respectively.

program, and are not sufficient to establish geological and grade continuity to enable
any Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve estimation.
Orientation
of
data in relation
to
geological
structure

Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible
structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type.

If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key
mineralised structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should
be assessed and reported if material.

The drill holes were orientated as inclined holes (-60°), toward 090°, as this is
considered to be appropriate for the interpreted dip of the stratigraphy and regional
mineralised structures - creating minimal sampling bias.
Sample security
The measures taken to ensure sample security.

Calico samples are sealed into green/poly weave bags and cable tied. These are then
sealed in bulka bags and transported to the laboratory in Perth by company staff or
contractors or established freight companies.

Gold was discovered in the district during the gold rush era, first records of gold won
from small-scale, high-grade workings include the Montague Mining Centre (1904-
13). Renewed interest in the late 1960's included base metal exploration carried out
within exposed stratigraphy of the Montague Ranges (Bungarra Ranges), exploration
interest that broadened with the release of the Sandstone 1:250,000 aeromagnetic
sheet in 1970 resulting in the staking of favourable magnetic anomalies by
exploration companies.

Early explorers in the Montague Ranges included Anaconda Australia Inc. (1966-67),
followed by International Nickel Australia (1971-75) evaluating a Gabbro - banded
differentiated basic complex believed prospective for copper and/or nickel such as
the Dulith Gabbro, USA. Strong geophysical and mineralised anomalism was
encountered, however, copper-zinc enrichment was also encountered in adjacent
felsic stratigraphy at Ed's Bore prospect, which was followed-up by CRA Exploration
(1983-1990) to intersect polymetallic VMS enrichments at Bevan prospect (not
substantively pursued).

At Montague, Western Mining Corporation (1976) conducted investigations for
copper and gold including soil sampling and IP surveying, which was followed by CRA
Exploration (1984-89) working concurrently with AMOCO Minerals Australia
Company (1984) and Clackline Refractories Ltd (from 1985 - to later become Herald
Resources) assessing/purchasing historic mine areas from Mr W.J. Griffiths of
Sandstone. RAB drilling penetrating transported cover resulted in the virgin
discoveries of NE Pit by AMOCO and Whistler deposit by CRA. Later noted explorers
included Dalrymple Resources NL (1987-1990) intersecting gold at the Armada
(Twister) prospect, and Arimco Mining (1990-98) intersecting gold at Lyle prospect,
Victory West prospect, and copper at The Cup prospect (not substantively pursued).

The Montague Mining Centre produced approximately 150,000oz of gold
commencing in 1986 at Caledonian and NE Pits (Clackline), and continued at
Montague Boulder from 1988 (Herald), and was to close in 1993 after completion of
the Rosie Castle open cut (Herald). Whistler open cut was mined from November
1990(Polaris Pacific NL)and ore toll treated through the Herald mill. Little attention

was paid to mineralisation other than gold. Gateway Mining in joint venture with
Herald Resources continued exploration of the Montague Mining Centre, Gateway
also targeting poly-metallic intrusion related - VMS models in the district from 2006.

Airport, Airport Sth, S Bend, Rosie Nth, Rosie Sth mineralisation was discovered by
Gateway Mining between 2007 and 2011 in RAB drilling and later defined by RC
drilling.
Geology
Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.

Gateways’s Gidgee Project is located in the Gidgee district in the Archean Yilgarn
Craton of Western Australia approximately 630km NE of Perth and 70km north from
the township of Sandstone on the eastern central portion of the Gum Creek
Greenstone Belt, of the Southern Cross Province. Metamorphic grade of the Gum
Creek Greenstone Belt is estimated to be low-grade greenschist facies.

Project lithology includes basalt/ash tuff/dolerite/gabbro, the Montague
Granodiorite sub-volcanic intrusion (calc-alkaline - FI), dacite volcanic flow/s (FI),
volcaniclastic sequences of felsic composition and epiclastic conglomerates,
ultramafic intrusives and external orogenic granite plutons. Key regional

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.
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’). _

The drill holes were orientated as inclined holes (-60°), toward 090°, as this is
considered to be appropriate for the interpreted dip of the major mineralised
structure – parallel to the Montague-Boulder shear zone - creating minimal sampling
bias.

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 to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.

The accompanying document is considered to be a balanced report with a suitable
cautionary note.
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 substances.

The area has been covered by detailed ground gravity and airborne magnetic surveys.
Previous drilling is limited to set depth RAB which is considered to have been an
ineffective test, some 50m x 25m spaced AC and RC exists in the North east part of
the prospect.
Further work
The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth
extensions or large-scale step-out drilling).

Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main
geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not
commercially sensitive.

Additional air-core and RC drilling will be undertaken to continue tracing the
anomalous mineralised structure along strike.
