SHALLOW, HIGH-GRADE GOLD ZONE EXTENDED AT EAGLEHAWK
HIGHLIGHTS
-
➢ Further shallow, high-grade gold mineralisation delivered from RC drilling at Eaglehawk, confirming the exciting prospectivity of this mineralised system, with latest significant results including:
-
3m @ 8.98g/t Au from 136m, including 1m @ 20.70g/t Au from 138m in 25MBRC020
-
12m @ 2.47g/t Au from 70m, including 3m @ 5.39g/t Au from 74m in 25MBRC019
-
➢ These latest results are in addition to previously released significant results including:
o26m @ 5.15g/t Au from 79m, including 4m @ 20.50g/t Au from 92m in 25MBRC002 -
3m @ 46.70g/t Au from 139m, including 1m @ 79.50g/t Au from 140m in 25MBRC006
-
➢ These RC results are the balance of a 20-hole campaign completed at Eaglehawk, with further drilling being designed to follow up lateral and depth extensions
-
➢ Initial results from AC drilling targeting mineralisation in the dacite host unit in the area extending from Mulga Bill to Eaglehawk has intersected several additional mineralised zones, including:
-
3m @ 4.53g/t Au from 130m to End of Hole (EOH) in 25SWAC096, in the previously untested gap between Mulga Bill and Eaglehawk
-
9m @ 1.67g/t Au from 88m in 25SWAC106
-
14m @ 1.42g/t Au from 86m in 25SWAC116
-
➢ AC drilling at Eaglehawk is continuing to test and define further mineralisation in the dacite corridor to the North, with additional results expected shortly
-
➢ The Ironbark scoping study is on track for completion this quarter
Great Boulder Resources (“ Great Boulder ” or the “ Company ”) (ASX: GBR ) is pleased to provide an update on exploration at the Company’s flagship Side Well Gold Project (“ Side Well ”) near Meekatharra in Western Australia which hosts a Mineral Resource Estimate (“ MRE ”) of 668,000oz @ 2.8 g/t Au.
Great Boulder’s Managing Director, Andrew Paterson commented:
“We are continuing to build momentum at the emerging Eaglehawk deposit, using a combination of air-core (AC) drilling to refine targets followed by RC drilling to test high grades at depth. This process has been working extremely well since we defined the key dacite host unit, as announced in December 2024.”

“The recent RC program at Eaglehawk and Mulga Bill has continued to successfully identify zones of high-grade gold. We’re now well into the air-core program at Eaglehawk, with initial results defining more zones of shallow gold mineralisation. All of these holes will help refine our targets for ongoing RC testing as we progress Eaglehawk towards an initial resource estimate, which will be an important step in the next stage of resource growth at Side Well.”
“It’s also worth noting the new drilling in the gap between Mulga Bill and Eaglehawk intersected 3m @ 4.53g/t Au with the hole ending in mineralisation, suggesting those two prospects may join up as we continue drilling. This is another example of this deposit continuing to deliver gold intersections from areas where we’ve not previously drilled.”
“As always, we have a lot of samples at the assay lab so I look forward to releasing more high-grade results in the coming weeks. Separately, the Ironbark scoping study is progressing well and I look forward to reporting initial results as soon as possible.”

Eaglehawk RC & AC Drilling
Assays from the final four RC holes from a 20-hole program at Mulga Bill and Eaglehawk have been received, with the following significant intercepts delivered from Eaglehawk:
-
3m @ 8.98g/t Au from 136m, including 1m @ 20.70g/t Au from 138m in 25MBRC020
-
12m @ 2.47g/t Au from 70m, including 3m @ 5.39g/t Au from 74m in 25MBRC019
-
These new significant results are in addition to previously released significant results1 including:
-
26m @ 5.15g/t Au from 79m, including 4m @ 20.50g/t Au from 92m in 25MBRC002[2]
-
3m @ 46.70g/t Au from 139m, including 1m @ 79.50g/t Au from 140m in 25MBRC006
-
2m @ 5.40g/t Au from 137m in 25MBRC003
Eaglehawk is shaping up to be a significant new discovery which GBR has only just begun to test, with the first programs of targeted RC holes delivering multiple significant intersections of wide and high-grade mineralisation within the dacite host unit.
Mineralisation remains open laterally along strike (north and south) and also at depth. The Company is confident that further drilling to test Eaglehawk mineralisation extensions will deliver further significant intercepts with the potential to provide substantial resource additions to the Side Well Project.
48 AC holes have been drilled from the northern end of Mulga Bill through Eaglehawk, defining the most prospective dacite host unit towards the north and east. This program is due to be completed shortly. Highlights from the initial assays include:
-
3m @ 4.53g/t Au from 130m to EOH in 25SWAC096, in the gap between Mulga Bill and Eaglehawk
-
9m @ 1.67g/t Au from 88m in 25SWAC106
-
14m @ 1.42g/t Au from 86m in 25SWAC116
-
4m @ 2.56g/t Au from 76m in 25SWAC095
-
5m @ 2.10g/t Au from 94m, and 4m @ 1.11g/t Au from 104m in 25SWAC111.
Ironbark RC Drilling
Four RC holes were recently completed at Ironbark, testing a possible southerly plunge to highgrade gold mineralisation. Mineralisation at this end of the Ironbark deposit has not been closed off by previous drilling.
Assay results from this program are expected within the next three to four weeks.
1 Refer to ASX releases dated 12 March 2025 and 7 April 2025
2 The intersection in 25MBRC002 was originally reported as 29m @ 4.79g/t Au from 76m. Two 4m composite assays included in this intersection have been re-assayed as 1m samples, giving a final intersection result of 26m @ 5.15g/t Au from 79m down-hole.

Next Steps
Once the Eaglehawk AC program is finished the rig will return to Side Well South to follow up several high-grade gold discoveries from the first round of AC drilling in January and February.
External consultants are working on the Ironbark scoping study. Great Boulder is aiming to have this study delivered within the current quarter.
Discussions are ongoing with the Yugunga Nya Traditional Owner group, and the Company plans to conduct the next round of negotiations for the Ironbark mining agreement within the next few weeks.
This announcement has been approved by the Great Boulder Board.

Appendix 1 - JORC Code, 2012 Edition Table 1 (GBR Drilling, Side Well Project)
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
| Criteria | Commentary |
|---|---|
| Sampling techniques | At the Side Well Project GBR has collected data from auger sampling and from AC, RC and Diamond drilling techniques. This section encompasses all four methods. RC 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 scoop sample from each 1m bag. Core samples are selected visually based on observations of alteration and mineralisation and sampled to contacts or metre intervals as appropriate. Once samples are marked the core is cut in half longitudinally with one half taken for assay and the other half returned to the core tray. AC samples were placed in piles on the ground with 4m composite samples taken using a scoop. Auger samples are recovered from the auger at blade refusal depth. Auger drilling is an open-hole technique. |
| Drilling techniques | Industry standard drilling methods and equipment were utilised. Auger drilling was completed using a petrol-powered hand-held auger. |
| 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. Water was encountered during drilling resulting in minor wet and moist samples with the majority being dry. 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 for the RC drilling and Intertek Laboratories for the AC drilling. Samples were pulverized so that each samples had a nominal 85% passing 75 microns. Au analysis was undertaken using Au-AA26 involving a 50g lead collection fire assay and Atomic Adsorption Spectrometry (AAS) finish. For AC drilling, Au analysis was undertaken at Intertek using a 50g lead collection fire assay with ICP-OES finish (FA50/OE). Multi-element analysis was completed at both ALS and Intertek Laboratories. Digestion was completed using both 4 Acid and Aqua-regia and analysed by ICP-AES and ICP-MS (Intertek code 4A/MS48, ALS codes ME-MS61, ME-ICP41-ABC). |
| Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
All samples were assayed by industry standard techniques. Fire assay for gold; four-acid digest and aqua regia for multi-element analysis. |
| Verification of sampling and assaying |
The standard GBR protocol was followed for insertion of standards and blanks with a blank and standard inserted per 25 for RC drilling and 40 samples for AC drilling. Field Duplicates as second cone splits are inserted within known ore zones to assess repeatability. Analysis of ME was typically done on master pulps after standard gold analysis with a company multi-element standard inserted every 50 samples. No QAQC problems were identified in the results. No twinned drilling has been undertaken. |
| Location of data points | Sample locations and mapping observations were located and recorded electronically using a handheld GPS. Coordinates were recorded in GDA94 grid in Zone 50, which is the GDA94 zone for the Meekatharra area. Drill holes were positioned using the same technique. Hole collars were initially picked up after drilling using a handheld GPS. RC and Diamond hole collars were subsequently surveyed with a DGPS for greater accuracy. This accuracy is sufficient for the intended purpose of the data. |

| 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. Wherever possible, cross sections are shown to give a visual indication of the relationship between intersection width and lode thickness. The spacing and location of the data is currently only being considered for exploration purposes. |
| Sample security | GBR personnel are responsible for delivery of samples from the drill site to the Toll Ipec dispatch center in Meekatharra. Samples are transported by Toll Ipec from Meekatharra to the laboratories in Perth. |
| Audits or reviews | Data review and interpretation by independent consultants on a regular basis. Group technical meetings are usually held monthly with input from independent expert consultants in the fields of geochemistry, petrology, structural geology and geophysics. |
Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results
(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)
| Criteria | Commentary |
|---|---|
| Mineral tenement and land tenure status |
Side Well tenement E51/1905 is a 48-block exploration license covering an area of 131.8km2 immediately east and northeast of Meekatharra in the Murchison province. The tenement is a 75:25 joint venture between Great Boulder and Zebina Minerals Pty Ltd. Aircore drilling was completed on P51/3178 and P51/2978 located directly south of E51/1905. These tenements are held in a 80:20 joint venture between Great Boulder and Wanbanna Pty Ltd. |
| Exploration done by other parties |
Tenement E51/1905 has a protracted exploration history but it is relatively unexplored compared to other regions surrounding Meekatharra. |
| 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. Subcrop exposures of laterite, mafic and ultramafic rocks are present along the eastern side of the project, however exposure of outcrop is still relatively poor. |
| Drill hole Information | A list of the drill hole coordinates, orientations and intersections reported in this announcement are provided as an appended table in the relevant announcements for each drilling program. |
| Data aggregation methods |
Results were reported using cut-off levels relevant to the sample type. For composited samples 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 0.5g/t Au with a maximum dilution of 3m. A weighted average calculation may be 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 mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
The majority of drilling was conducted using appropriate perpendicular orientations for interpreted mineralisation. Stratigraphy appears to be steeply dipping to the west however mineralisation may have a different orientation. Cross sections are shown wherever possible to illustrate relationships between drilling and interpreted mineralisation. |
|---|---|
| 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 previously been re-reported by GBR to highlight the prospectivity of the region, however the vast majority of work on the project has been completed by GBR and reported in ASX announcements since 14 July 2020. |
| Other substantive exploration data |
Subsequent to Doray Minerals Limited exiting the project in 2015, private companies have held the ground with no significant work being undertaken. Wanbanna Pty Ltd has done limited work consisting mainly of AC drilling around the Burke’s Reward and Golden Bracelet prospect’s further south. |
| Further work | Further work is discussed in the document. |
