SPECTACULAR GOLD INTERSECTION AT MULGA BILL
HIGHLIGHTS
-
➢ Assays received from final diamond holes drilled in April at Mulga Bill:
-
5.9m at 39.37g/t Au from 84.3m incl. 3.6m at 63.79g/t Au from 85.4m in 22MBRC005
-
➢ This result verifies down dip continuity of the original GBR “discovery hole” 3m @ 34.54g/t Au from 32m in 21MBAC002
-
➢ AC drilling returned positive results supporting the definition of targets for follow up RC drilling, increased drill coverage to confirm the 6km strike length at Mulga Bill remaining open in both directions with possible expansion of the mineralised footprint to the west
-
➢ RC drilling at Ironbark and Mulga Bill is progressing well
-
➢ Pending results include 21 AC holes from Mulga Bill and 95 AC holes from the Whiteheads Gold Project
➢
Great Boulder Resources (“ Great Boulder ” or the “ Company ”) (ASX: GBR ) is pleased to announce assay results from the last two diamond holes drilled at Mulga Bill in April, as well as further assays from recent RC and AC drilling at Mulga Bill within the Side Well Gold Project (“ Side Well ”) near Meekatharra in Western Australia.
Great Boulder’s Managing Director, Andrew Paterson commented:
“This sensational result is in a shallower part of Mulga Bill, on the same section as our first highgrade intersection early last year.”
“The intersection is within the upper part of the weathering profile below the base of gold depletion, so there is likely to be a component of supergene enrichment in the gold grade. The significance of this result is that it supports our geological interpretation in that area, which has changed significantly since the first holes were drilled. It is also significant that the hole intersected a thicker zone of very high-grade mineralisation compared to the narrower intersections reported in earlier diamond holes.”
“RC drilling has been progressing well since the end of June, with holes completed at the southern end of the Mulga Bill trend as well as at Ironbark. We are now drilling continuously rather than on a campaign basis, which means we expect a steady flow of results throughout the rest of the year and into 2023.”

RESULTS UPDATE & NEXT STEPS
21 AC holes remain to be reported, with results expected in the coming weeks. The AC results to date provide further encouragement within gaps in previous drill coverage along the 6km-long Mulga Bill footprint, with results such as 1m @ 8.51g/t Au in 22SWAC175 and 4m @ 1.16g/t Au in 22SWAC183 adding definition at Loaded Dog. Meanwhile the result in hole 22SWAC180 (4m @ 1.63g/t Au) demonstrates potential for additional mineralisation further west, as this is the westernmost hole on that line.
RC drilling is currently making good progress at the southern end of the Mulga Bill corridor and at the nearby Ironbark prospect, with initial assays expected in August.
Assay results from the 95-hole AC program completed at the Whiteheads Gold Project in June 2022 remain outstanding.

CSIRO MINERAL MAP
With reference to our collaborative research project with Australia’s national science agency, CSIRO in the ASX announcement of 7 December 2021, Dr Walid Salama, a Senior Research Scientist at CSIRO Australian Resources Research Centre in Perth recently used a TESCAN TIMA scan on a sample of quartz vein showing visible gold from diamond hole 22MBDD002 to produce a map of mineral species within the sample.
A sub-section of the scan shown in Figure 3 below displays a number of sulphide minerals attached to a grain of gold. As can be seen in the image there are five different bismuth minerals in the sample around the gold, three of which contain copper. This observation provides a clear explanation for the geochemical correlation between gold, bismuth and copper at Mulga Bill.

APPENDIX 1 - JORC CODE, 2012 EDITION TABLE 1
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
| Criteria | Commentary |
|---|---|
| Sampling techniques | AC samples were collected into calico bags over 1m intervals using a cyclone splitter. The residual bulk samples are placed in lines of piles on the ground. 2 cone splits are taken off the rig splitter for RC drilling. Visually prospective zones were sampled over 1m intervals and sent for analysis while the rest of the hole was composited over 4m intervals by taking a spear sample from each 1m bag. |
| Drilling techniques | AC Drilling was undertaken by Prospect Drilling. Industry standard drilling methods and equipment were utilised. |
| Drill sample recovery | Sample recovery data is noted in geological comments as part of the logging process. Sample condition has been logged for every geological interval as part of the logging process. Significant ground water was encountered in drilling which resulted in numerous wet samples. No quantitative twinned drilling analysis has been undertaken. |
| Logging | Geological logging of drilling followed established company procedures. Qualitative logging of samples includes lithology, mineralogy, alteration, veining and weathering. Abundant geological comments supplement logged intervals. |
| Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation |
1m cyclone splits and 4m speared composite samples were taken in the field. Samples were prepared and analysed at ALS Laboratories Perth. Samples were pulverized so that each samples had a nominal 85% passing 75 microns. Au analysis was undertaken using Au-AA26 involving 50g lead collection fire assay and Atomic Adsorption Spectrometry (AAS) finish. |
| Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
All samples were assayed by industry standard techniques. |
| Verification of sampling and assaying |
The standard GBR protocol was followed for insertion of standards and blanks with a blank and standard inserted per 40 samples. No QAQC problems were identified in the results. No twinned drilling has been undertaken. |
| Data spacing and distribution |
The spacing and location of the majority of drilling in the projects is, by the nature of early exploration, variable. The spacing and location of data is currently only being considered for exploration purposes. |
| Orientation of data in relation to geological structure |
Drilling is dominantly perpendicular to regional geological trends where interpreted and practical. True width and orientation of intersected mineralisation is currently unknown or not clear. The spacing and location of the data is currently only being considered for exploration purposes. |
| Sample security | GBR personnel were responsible for delivery of samples from the drill site to the courier companies dispatch center in Meekatharra. Samples were transported by Toll Ipec from Meekatharra to the laboratory in Perth. |
| Audits or reviews | Data review and interpretation by independent consultants. |

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results
(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)
| Criteria | Commentary |
|---|---|
| Mineral tenement and | Side Well tenement E51/1905 is a 48-block exploration license covering an area of 131.8km2 |
| land tenure status | immediately east and northeast of Meekatharra in the Murchison province. The tenement is a 75:25 |
| joint venture between Great Boulder and Zebina Minerals PtyLtd. | |
| Exploration done by | Tenement E51/1905 has a protracted exploration history but is relatively unexplored compared to |
| other parties | other regions surrounding Meekathara. |
| Geology | The Side Well tenement group covers a portion of the Meekatharra-Wydgee Greenstone Belt north |
| of Meekatharra, WA. The north-northeasterly trending Archaean Meekatharra-Wydgee Greenstone | |
| Belt, comprises a succession of metamorphosed mafic to ultramafic and felsic and sedimentary rocks | |
| belonging to the Luke Creek and Mount Farmer Groups. | |
| Over the northern extensions of the belt, sediments belonging to the Proterozoic Yerrida Basin | |
| unconformably overlie Archaean granite-greenstone terrain. Structurally, the belt takes the form of | |
| a syncline known as the Polelle syncline. Younger Archaean granitoids have intrusive contacts with | |
| the greenstone succession and have intersected several zones particularly in the Side Well area. | |
| Within the Side Well tenement group, a largely concealed portion of the north-north-easterly | |
| trending Greenstone Belt is defined, on the basis of drilling and airborne magnetic data, to underlie | |
| the area. The greenstone succession is interpreted to be tightly folded into a south plunging syncline | |
| and is cut by easterly trending Proterozoic dolerite dykes. | |
| There is little to no rock exposure at the Side Well prospect. This area is covered by alluvium and | |
| lacustrine clays, commonly up to 60 metres thick. | |
| Drill hole Information | A list of the drill hole coordinates, orientations and intersections reported in this announcement are |
| provided as an appended table. | |
| Data aggregation | Results were reported using cut-off levels relevant to the sample type. For composited samples |
| methods | significant intercepts were reported for grades greater than 0.1g/t Au with a maximum dilution of |
| 4m. For single metre splits, significant intercepts were reported for grades greater than 0.8g/t Au | |
| with a maximum dilution of 2m. | |
| A weighted average calculation was used to allow for bottom of hole composites that were less than | |
| the standard 4m and when intervals contain composited samples plus 1m split samples. | |
| No metal equivalents are used. | |
| Relationship between | The orientation of structures and mineralisation is not known with certainty, but majority of the |
| mineralisation widths | drilling drilling was conducted using appropriate perpendicular orientations for interpreted |
| and intercept lengths | mineralisation. Diamond drilling has confirmed a mineralised intrusive body at Side Well has a near |
| vertical dip and trends broadly north-south. Due to the wide spacing of drill lines exact orientation is | |
| not clear. | |
| Diagrams | Refer to figures in announcement. |
| Balanced reporting | It is not practical to report all historical exploration results from the Side Well project. Selected |
| historical intercepts have been re-reported by GBR to highlight the prospectivity of the region. Full | |
| drillhole details can be found in publicly available historical annual reports. | |
| Other substantive | Subsequent to Doray Minerals Limited exiting the project in 2015, private companies have held the |
| exploration data | ground with no significant work being undertaken. |
| Further work | Further work is discussed in the document. |
