Mt Stirling Assays Continue to Extend Gold System

Highlights:

  • The interpreted strike of the Mt Stirling gold system now exceeds ~760m and remains open in all directions

  • MSRD005 assays confirm Viserion lode significant extension along strike and at depth: o 9.20m @ 2.99 g/t Au from 261m (MSRD005)

  • inc 1m @ 6.88 g/t Au from 264m

  • o and 1m @ 9.79 g/t Au from 273.50m

  • Pierce points to date have confirmed the Viserion lode dimensions to be ~300m x 120m

  • Assays from Mt Stirling Main Zone 1760N have returned significant gold intersections of: o 5m @ 3.05 g/t Au from 42m (MSRC056)

    • inc 1m @ 5.65 g/t Au from 44m

    • and 4m @ 0.92 g/t Au from 32m

  • Mt Stirling Main Zone; Mt Stirling Hanging Wall and Viserion lode all remain OPEN along strike and down-dip; RC drilling is on-going with further extension holes in progress

  • Assays results and footprint continue to track on par and consistent with regional significant discoveries, e.g. St Barbara’s (ASX:SBM) 4.8Moz Gwalia Mine and Saracen’s (ASX:SAR) 3.8Moz Thunderbox Mine, with the Mt Stirling Gold System remaining open in all directions

  • Torian awaiting results from 30 drill holes at Mt Stirling, 16 holes at Stirling Well and 19 holes from Diorite, with results forthcoming

  • Further results received continue to solidly contribute towards Mt Stirling’s interim JORC resource estimate upgrade due at the end of March 2021

  • Multiple anomalous 4m composite samples to add further resource domains to resource estimate update (from corresponding 1m split samples) and vector guide further discoveries, as seen in the recently announced Eastern Zone discovery (15 February 2021)

  • Mt Stirling Well Phase 2 extensional drilling (35 RC holes) to commence imminently

  • Mt Stirling Regional targeting has identified numerous Priority 1 and Priority 2 targets along four key structural corridors ; Viserion Shear (3.4km); Wonambi Shear (2.2km); Ursus Fault (2.5km) and Blue Jacket (2.2km) for immediate follow-up exploration including drilling

Torian’s Executive Director Mr Peretz Schapiro said “With each batch of results received, it becomes clearer and clearer to us that we’re sitting on something quite substantial at Mt Stirling. We have demonstrated that we are ‘on the system’, with our immediate task being to define the actual footprint of Mt Stirling, as it continues to remain open along strike and depth.

Should results confirm our interpretation of a shear-hosted gold system that continues at depth, for considerable down-dip depth, it would mean that Mt Stirling’s multiple gold structures continue to have the potential to depth and resemble that of regional operating gold mines e.g St Barbara’s (ASX:SBM) 4.8Moz Gwalia Mine and Saracen’s (ASX:SAR) 3.8Moz Thunderbox Mine, given it remains open in all directions.

Our average grade intercepted to date, significantly exceeds the average grade of nearby regional gold mines, providing us with important optionality when it comes to processing our ore. We have the ability to utilise existing mills in the region with our higher grade feed, or even the potential to develop our own facility down the track.

These results continue to fill us with confidence that when our interim resource is completed later this month, it will result in a significant upgrade to our tonnage and gold ounces at Mt Stirling. The interim resource will provide the Company with strong fundamental backing as we continue our journey to develop Mt Stirling into a Gold Camp.

In addition to attempting to prove up a larger footprint at Mt Stirling itself, we will be actively following up with other high priority targets in the region. For instance, there have been historical gold intercepts 1.2km NW and along strike from Mt Stirling. We are excited about a potential connection between Mt Stirling Well and Mt Stirling. We will be following up on the Blue Jacket prospect to the east, which has historical gold intercepts alongside some deep historical shafts, in addition to following up on the newly discovered eastern zone at Mt Stirling and the prolific Ursus fault. We are also looking forward to follow up work on Diorite, particularly around the high grade historical mines and soil and rock chip anomalies.

2021 is shaping up to be an exciting year for our Company as we anticipate significant news flow over the coming weeks and months. We eagerly await the remaining results from Mt Stirling, some of which will feed into our resource upgrade, in addition to the results from 18 drillholes at Stirling Well, 19 exploratory drill holes at Diorite and the continued exploration of our Mt Stirling and Diorite projects.

Mt Stirling Gold Project - Drilling and Results update

Torian Resources Limited ( Torian or the Company ) is pleased to announce that assay results received from the Mt Stirling Gold Project continue to confirm strike extension of the Mt Stirling Gold System to the north west, with the system now confirmed over ~760m strike.

Assay results from hole MSRD005 confirm ~120m Viserion lode significant extension at depth (-220m RL)

  • 9.20m @ 2.99 g/t Au from 261m (MSRD005)

  • inc 1m @ 6.88 g/t Au from 264m; and

  • 1m @ 9.79 g/t Au from 273.50m

==> picture [79 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

Viserion lode system dimension has significantly expanded to an interpreted ~300m x 120m from known drilled pierce points so far, with structural data confirming a significant inflection (further to the NW) from the Mt Stirling Main Zone.

Additionally, the grade tenor is consistently >100% above the global resource grade, with down-dip continuity likely to persist to significant depth.

Viserion assays from section 1960N (Figure 1) and section 1920N (Figure 2) have previously returned significant gold mineralisation of (refer ASX release 19 February 2021):

  • 9m @ 3.75 g/t Au from 88m (MSRC087)

  • inc 6m @ 5.07 g/t Au from 90m; and

  • 1m @ 12.36 g/t Au from 93m

  • 4m @ 5.99 g/t Au from 133m (MSRC088)

  • inc 2m @ 10.58 g/t Au from 134m

Mt Stirling Gold Project Exploration Update

Mt Stirling Regional targeting has identified numerous Priority 1 and Priority 2 targets along four key structural corridors for immediate follow-up exploration including drilling :

  • Viserion Shear (3.4km);

  • Wonambi Shear (2.2km);

  • Ursus Fault (2.5km) and

  • Blue Jacket (2.2km)

These 4 structural corridors, provide in excess of 10km of prospective host stratigraphy and structural setting, and are immediately adjacent to known Mt Stirling mineralisation.

Conceptual, geochemical and structural targets will be tested in the coming months with the objective to extend and confirm multiple regional targets, to vector on anomalism and mineralisation for the next generation of gold resource(s).

Mt Stirling Well Phase 2 extensional drilling (35 RC holes) is scheduled to commence imminently. Particular focus will test the structural model of multiple stacked gold horizons at the prospect, and the systematic screening of sub-vertical to horizontal links between Mt Stirling and Mt Stirling Well gold systems, nearby both sub-parallel to Viserion Shear Zone and Nexus Fault Zone.

Mt Stirling mineralisation remains open, and the potential for further strike extension is evident. Multiple anomalous zones are also systematically being followed-up, which is also vectoring towards easterly and westerly anomalous and mineralised potential, with significant implications towards continued increase to Project tonnage and global resource.

Mt Stirling Gold Project Interim Resource Estimate Updates

As has been previously announced, Torian has prioritised processing the results from the Mt Stirling program as it has engaged resource estimate consultants to conduct an interim JORC resource upgrade, with the intention of expanding the current inferred resource estimate of 33.9koz at Mt Stirling and the 16.4koz inferred resource at Mt Stirling Well. The Company is on target for a resource estimate update in the first quarter of 2021.

The Mt Stirling maiden Inferred Resource Estimate (BMGS Dec 2018) included 26 historical shallow drill holes for a combined 727,021t @ 1.45 g/t Au for 33,893oz.

The Mt Stirling Phase 1 program provides an additional 31 drill holes, combined with a further 4 historical drill holes that were outside of the maiden Resource Estimate, for a combined 61 drill holes to be included in the 2021 Q1 Resource Estimate upgrade.

Mt Stirling interpretation of mineralised domains model is progressing in-house.

Atlas Geophysics has been contracted to undertake improved imagery and DTM.

Downhole density is currently being surveyed by ABIMS.

Reference lab samples have been submitted to Nagrom Laboratory.

About Torian:

Torian Resources Ltd (ASX: TNR) is a highly active gold exploration and development company with an extensive and strategic land holding comprising six projects and over 400km² of tenure in the Goldfields Region of Western Australia. All projects are nearby to excellent infrastructure and lie within 50km of major mining towns.

Torian’s flagship Mt Stirling Project is situated approximately 40km NW of Leonora, and neighbours Red 5’s Kind of the Hills mine. The region has recently produced approximately 14M oz of gold from mines such as Tower Hills, Sons of Gwalia, Thunderbox, Harbour Lights and Gwalia.

The Mt Stirling Project consists of 2 blocks:

  1. The Stirling Block to the north which contains two JORC Inferred resources.

  2. a. Mt Stirling – 727,000t at 1.45 g/t Au for 33,900oz

  3. b. Stirling Well – 253,500t at 2.01 g/t Au for 16,384oz

  4. The Diorite Block to the south, home of the historic 73 g/t Diorite King Mine.

The Mount Monger goldfield is located within the Kalgoorlie terrane subdivision of the Eastern Goldfields Province. This 3,700-hectare project lies within close vicinity of Silver Lake Resources Ltd’s (ASX: SLR) key asset, the Mount Monger Gold Camp, a prolific part of the Eastern Goldfields district of Western Australia. The Mount Monger Camp had produced more than 1.67Moz in the last 30 years, and more than 330,000 ounces for Silver Lake in in the last 24 months alone.

The project consists of two distinct areas:

  1. The Wombola Block to the north

  2. The Mt Monger South Block to the south

The Company is now actively pursuing a proposed spin-off of the Mt Monger and Gibraltar Projects, which proposes that Torian will hold approximately 10% of the new listed entity plus a 20% free carried JV interested in the projects.

Another project in the Kalgoorlie region is the Zuleika project in which the Company is involved in a JV with Dampier Gold Ltd (ASX: ZAG). The Zuleika project is located along the world-class Zuleika Shear, which is the fourth largest gold producing region in Australia and consistently produces some of the country’s highest grade and lowest cost gold mines. This project lies north and partly along strike of several major gold deposits including Northern Star’s (ASX: NST) 7.0Moz East Kundana Joint Venture and Evolution’s (ASX: EVN) 1.8Moz Frogs Legs and White Foil deposits.

Torian’s other projects within the Kalgoorlie region include the Bonnie Vale and Gibraltar Projects, and its Credo Well JV with Dampier Gold Ltd (ASX: ZAG), host of a JORC Inferred resource of 86,419t at 4.41 g/t Au for 12,259 oz.

Mt Stirling Project: JORC Table 1

Section 1 ‐ Sampling Techniques and Data

Criteria Commentary
Sampling techniques  Drilling results reported are from previous and current exploration completed by Torian Resources Ltd and historical explorers including the original vendors of
M37/1306, North Ltd, Dominion Mining Limited and Tern Minerals Ltd.
 Reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1m split samples from which 2‐3kg was pulverised to produce a 500g tub for Photon assay. Sampling has been
carried out to company methodology and QA/QC to industry best practice. Zones of interest were 1m split sampled, and comp spear sampling was carried out on
interpreted barren zones. Samples were dispatched to MinAnalytical in Kalgoorlie were prep included sorting, drying and pulverisation for a 500gm Photon Assay
(PAAU02)

Diamond drilling was utilised to obtain NQ core which was cut to obtain half core for representative sampling of selective geological sampling
Drilling techniques  Historical drilling techniques include reverse circulation (RC) drilling. Standard industry techniques have been used where documented. Current RC drilling was
carried out by PXD and Orlando utilising a Schramm truck and track mounted rig respectively

Diamond drilling was carried out by Orlando drilling, with RC precollars followed by Diamond tail NQ tails.
 The more recent RC drilling utilised a face sampling hammer with holes usually 155mm in diameter.
Drill sample recovery
Logging
 Drill recovery has not been routinely recorded on historical work, and is captured for all recent drilling

Drill recovery and geotechnical logging is captured from core logging, including RQD
 Geological logs are accessible and have been examined over the priority prospect areas. The majority of the logging is of high quality and has sufficiently
captured key geological attributes including lithology, weathering, alteration and veining.
 Logging is qualitative in nature, to company logging coding.
 All samples / intersections have been logged. 100% of relevant length intersections have been logged.
Sub‐sampling techniques and
sample preparation
 Standard industry sampling practices have been undertaken by the historical exploration companies. Appropriate analytical methods have been used
considering the style of mineralisation being sought.
 Sample sizes are considered appropriate.
 QC/QC data is absent in the historical data with the exception of the more recent Torian drilling, where sample standards and blanks are routinely used.

Page 19 of 23 / 17 March 2021

 In the more recent Torian drilling duplicate samples (same sample duplicated) were commonly inserted for every 20 samples taken. Certified Reference
Materials (CRM's), blanks and duplicates, are included and analysed in each batch of samples.
 There is a significant amount of coarse gold at the Mt Stirling Well Prospect. This is reflected in the poor repeatability of some samples and was also noted on
the drill logs.
Quality of assay data and
laboratory tests
 The historical drill sample gold assays are a combination of Fire Assay and Aqua Regia. The assay techniques and detection limits are appropriate for the
included results.
 Various independent laboratories have assayed samples from the historical explorers drilling. In general they were internationally accredited for QAQC in
mineral analysis.
 Downhole density surveying is being carried out, and calibrated against SG data obtained from drill core.
 The laboratories inserted blank and check samples for each batch of samples analysed and reports these accordingly with all results.
 Reference Photon pulps have been submitted to Nagrom Laboratory, in order to verify MinAnalytical mineralised assays accuracy and precision.
 Samples were analysed for gold via a 50 gram Lead collection fire assay and Inductively Coupled Plasma optical (Atomic) Emission Spectrometry to a detection
limited of 0.005ppm Au.
 Intertek Genalysis routinely inserts analytical blanks, standards and duplicates into the client sample batches for laboratory QAQC performance monitoring.
 The laboratory QAQC has been assessed in respect of the RC chip sample assays and it has been determined that the levels of accuracy and precision relating
to the samples are acceptable.
Verification of sampling and
assaying
 The historical and current drill intercepts reported have been calculated using a 0.5g/t Au cut‐off, with a maximum 2m internal waste.
Twinned holes have been completed to verify repeatability of sampling and assaying used to date.
 Documentation of primary data is field log sheets (handwritten) or logging to laptop templates. Primary data is entered into application specific data base. The
data base is subjected to data verification program, erroneous data is corrected. Data storage is retention of physical log sheet, two electronic backup storage
devices and primary electronic database.
Location of data points  Drill hole collarswere located using a handheld GPS system. The coordinated are stored in a digital exploration database and are referenced to MGA Zone 51
Datum GDA 94.
 Location of the majority of the historical drill holes has been using a handheld GPS system, or local grids that have been converted to MGA Zone 51 Datum GDA
94. Survey control used is handheld GPS for historic holes and
 The more recent Torian drilling has been located utilising a differential GPS and the majority of these holes have been surveyed downhole.

Data spacing and distribution  The historical drill spacing is variable over the project as depicted on map plan diagrams.
 Drill spacing over the more advanced Mt Stirling and Mt Stirling Well Prospects varies from 40m by 40m to 20m by 20m respectively.
 Sample compositing has been used in areas where mineralisation is not expected to be intersected. If results return indicate mineralisation, 1m split samples
were submitted for analysis.
Orientation of data in relation to
geological structure
 The orientation of the drilling is approximately at right angles to the known mineralisation trend and so gives a fair representation of the true width of
mineralisation intersected.
 No sampling bias is believed to occur due to the orientation of the drilling.
Sample security
 Drill samples were compiled and collected by Torian employees/contractors. All sample were bagged into calico bags and tied. Samples were transported from
site to the MinAnalytical laboratory in Kalgoorlie by Torian employees/contractors.
 A sample submission form containing laboratory instructions was submitted to the laboratory. The sample submission form and sample summary digitised
records were compiled and reviewed so as to check for discrepancies.
Audits or reviews Areview of historical data over the main Mt Stirling and Mt Stirling Well Prospects has been undertaken. The QA/QC on data over the remainder of the project
tenements is ongoing.

Previous exploration completed by Torian Resources Ltd and historical explorers including the original vendors of M37/1306, North Ltd, Dominion Mining
Limited and Tern Minerals Ltd.
Geology
The Mt Stirling Project tenements are located 40 km northwest of Leonora within the Mt Malcolm District of the Mt Margaret Mineral Field.

The project tenements are located within the Norseman‐Wiluna Greenstone Belt in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia.

The project tenements cover a succession of variolitic, pillowed high Mg basalts that have been intruded by the Mt Stirling syenogranite/monzogranite.

Historical prospecting and exploration activities have identified areas of gold mineralisation at the Mt Stirling and Mt Stirling Well Prospects. The orogenic
style gold mineralisation appears in different manifestations at each of the prospects.

At the Mt Stirling Prospect gold mineralisation is associated with zones of alteration, shearing and quartz veining within massive to variolitic high Mg basalt.
The alteration zones comprise quartz‐carbonate‐sericite‐pyrite+/‐ chlorite.

At the Mt Stirling Well Prospect gold mineralisation is associated with millimetre to centimetre scale quartz veining within the Mt Stirling
syenogranite/monzogranite. The gold mineralised quartz veins have narrow sericite/muscovite‐ epidote‐pyrite alteration selvages.

The characteristic of each prospect adheres to generally accepted features of orogenic gold mineralisation of the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia.
Drill hole Information
The location of drill holes is based on historical reports and data originally located on handheld GPS devices.

Northing and easting data for historic drilling is generally within 10m accuracy.

Recent Torian RC drill holes located with differential GPS.

Northing and easting on current Feb 2021 drilling is ± 3m accuracy.

No material information, results or data have been excluded.
Data aggregation methods
Best gold in drill hole was calculated by taking the maximum gold value in an individual down hole interval from each drill hole and plotting at the corresponding
drill hole collar position. Individual downhole intervals were mostly 1m, but vary from 1m to 4m in down hole length.

In relation to the reported historical drill hole intersection a weighted average was calculated by a simple weighting of from and to distances down hole. The
samples were 2m down hole samples. No top cuts were applied.

The current drill hole intersection is reported using a weighted average calculation by a simple weighting of from and to distances down hole at 1m intervals
per sample.

The historical drilling intercept reported has been calculated using a 1g/t Au cut off, no internal waste and with a total intercept of greater than 1 g/t Au.

No metal equivalent values are used
Relationship between mineralisation
widths and intercept lengths

The orientation of the drilling is approximately at right angles to the known trend mineralisation.

At Mt Stirling Well the gently dipping nature of the mineralisation means that steeply inclined holes give approximately true widths.

At Mt Stirling the steep dip of the mineralisation means that drill widths are exaggerated.

Down hole lengths are reported, true width not known.
Diagrams
The data has been presented using appropriate scales and using standard aggregating techniques for the display of data at prospect scale.

Geological and mineralisation interpretations based off current understanding and will change with further exploration.
Balanced reporting
Historical Torian drilling at the Mt Stirling and Mt Stirling Well Prospects has been reported in TNR:ASX announcements dated: 16/05/2019, 25/02/2019,
23/11/2016, 18/11/2016, 20/09/2016, 03/03/2016.
Other substantive exploration data
Geological interpretations are taken from historical and ongoing exploration activities. Detailed historical exploration with the existing Mt Stirling and Mt
Stirling Well Prospects has provided a reasonable understanding of the style and distribution of local gold mineralised structures at these prospects.

Other areas outside of the existing Mt Stirling and Mt Stirling Well prospects are at a relatively early stage and further work will enhance the understanding of
the gold prospectivity of these areas.
Further work
A review of the historical exploration data is ongoing with a view to identify and rank additional target areas for further exploration.

The results of this ongoing review will determine the nature and scale of future exploration programs.

Diagrams are presented in this report outlining areas of existing gold mineralisation and the additional gold target areas identified to date.
