QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES REPORT AND APPENDIX 5B
For the quarter ended 31 March 2021
Highlights:
-
GSN landholding in the Duketon Greenstone belt expected to increase approximately 10x from 47km2 to 459km2 including the Golden Star Deposit
-
GSN’s option to acquire the Golden Star Deposit was exercised, the newly granted tenement was transferred to 100% unencumbered GSN ownership, and a POW permit for drilling is approved.
-
In-house review of tenure in the Duketon Belt identified multiple drill-ready targets along the 50km of mineralised trends that also host Garden Well, Rosemont and Ben Hur gold deposits (owned by Regis Resources Limited)
-
RC drilling completed at Mon Ami and Cox’s Find Gold Projects targeting down-plunge extensions and along-strike potential repeats
-
Continued work at Mon Ami for potential open-pit mining operation; environmental studies completed with technical studies progressing to schedule
-
Ground truthing and geochemical programs at Edinburgh Park, Queensland identified two significant, large geochemical soil anomalies at the Leichhardt Creek Prospect
Duketon Belt Land Acquisition
Less than one year ago, GSN’s land position in the Duketon Belt, north of Laverton in Western Australia, was limited to the Cox’s Find mining leases, totaling only 2.5 km[2] in area. This provided GSN with an entry to the Duketon Belt that was largely controlled by Regis Resources Limited at that time.
In July 2020, the Company announced multiple tenement applications that expanded this footprint to 47km[2] .
On 1[st] February 2021, the Company announced the acquisition of the irrevocable option over three large exploration license applications around Cox’s Find in the Laverton region of Western Australia. Upon exercise of the option, GSN expects to substantially expand its land position in the Duketon Greenstone Belt from 47km[2] to 459km[2] (Figure 1).
Tenements E38/3518 and E38/3501 (which includes the Golden Star deposit) were granted in March 2021. GSN then exercised its option on Golden Star and transferred the tenement to reflect the 100% unencumbered ownership in GSN’s name. GSN expeditiously secured a Program of Work (POW) that now permits immediate commencement of drilling at Golden Star.
The Golden Star deposit is located 4km along strike to the south of the Ben Hur Deposit and 32km south of the Garden Well Mill, both owned by Regis Resources Limited.
Duketon Mining Limited drilled the Golden Star Deposit in 2017-18, demonstrating over 600m of continuous mineralised strike length, open in all directions (Figure 2).

-
34m @ 2.3 g/t Au incl. 12m @ 5.3 g/t Au
-
25m @ 2.5 g/t Au incl. 5m @ 10.7 g/t Au
-
35m @ 1.4 g/t Au incl. 11m @ 2.9 g/t Au
-
12m @ 4.0 g/t Au incl. 8m @ 5.9 g/t Au
-
26m @ 1.6 g/t Au incl. 5m @ 6.3 g/t Au
-
15m @ 2.2 g/t Au incl. 4m @ 7.4 g/t Au
-
20m @ 1.5 g/t Au incl. 7m @ 3.5g/t Au
Refer ASX:GSN announcement 2/2/21 for details of the Golden Star drill intersections.
High grades, up to 60g/t Au have been intersected plus several 50 gram-metre intersections and, in places, plus 90 gram-metre intersections. Mineralisation occurs within 4m of the surface in areas and high grades are seen throughout the mineralisation. Sulphides and some quartz veining have been identified north and south of this main zone of mineralisation.

Cox’s Find Drilling
The objectives of the recent Cox’s Find drilling program was to test the Model Earth structural model to investigate ‘look alike’ structural environments along strike of Cox’s Find. It was also directed at investigating the south eastern extremities at depth of the old workings to investigate if high grade mineralisation persists beyond what has been identified by GSN at the historic development.
Twenty-three RC holes were drilled at Cox’s Find for a total of 3,375m in December 2020 and January 2021.
Of these, four holes (20CFRC048-51) for 770m were allocated to test the south eastern down plunge target.
Hole 20CFRC049 drilled in this area, displayed a wide zone of quartz veining and alteration within intermixed sediments from 139 to 167m, and a wide low-grade zone of mineralisation with a best intersection of 8m @ 1.1 g/t Au from 160m (Figure 3). This result is encouraging and indicates that mineralisation corelates with the target horizon.
Drillhole 20CFRC0048 intersected mineralisation with 15m @ 0.4 g/t Au including 1m @ 1.3 g/t Au from 175m. Interpretation that the orientation of the high-grade shoot may be wrenching from their generally south-easterly plunge to the southern search space is still valid and targeting behind the drill hole is warranted.

Mon Ami Drilling
In August 2020 the company announced several near surface high-grade hits including 11m @ 7.9 g/t gold from 26m including 4m @ 15.9g/t gold in 20MARC011 and 4m @ 12.4 g/t gold from 80m in 20MARC003 (4m composite sample; refer ASX Announcement 12/8/20). These high-grade results are interpreted to be localised at the intersection of cross-cutting splays along the regional shear with drilling. Interpretation of the results has identified opportunities to extend these high-grade zones with shallow RC drilling which is expected to further improve the economics of a potential open pit development.
On 2[nd] March 2021, the Company announced the results of fourteen RC holes drilled at Mon Ami for a total of 1,601m during January 2021. The objectives of the drilling program were two-fold:
-
define and extend near-surface, high-grade gold mineralisation to the south, for incorporation into a targeted resource classification upgrade; and
-
test for possible depth extensions analogous to the 176koz (at 22.8 g/t Au) Ida H deposit located 8km north of Mon Ami.
Both deep holes intersected gold mineralisation. Gold is concentrated within quartz veining at the lithological contact of a metasedimentary sequence and a basalt unit within the regional scale Barnicoat Shear Zone.
The long section of the Mon Ami deposit (Figure 4) highlights the dominant northerly plunge to the highgrade mineralisation, which this drilling aimed to extend. A 30m extension of hole 21MARC010 resulted in a standout wide zone of mineralisation of 10m @ 2.7 g/t Au from 241m including 5m @ 5.2 g/t Au and 21m @ 1.0 g/t Au from 255m . 21MARC010 was a significant 100m step out, down plunge from previously identified high-grade mineralisation in MLRC036 ( 2m @ 27.5 g/t Au ). The high-grade gold mineralisation at Mon Ami is now known to extend for at least 500m and is open along strike and at depth. This hole is regarded as highly significant as it is the deepest hole drilled to date at Mon Ami, with alteration and mineralisation widening at this location. The high-grade gold mineralisation intersected in hole 21MARC010 is at 210m below the surface, 60m deeper than the current Inferred Mineral Resource of 1.1Mt at 1.7g/t Au for 59,000 ounces of gold (refer ASX announcement 7/11/18), which is limited to 150m below surface. Mineralisation is currently constrained only by drilling and demonstrates the potential for mineralisation to persist further down plunge along strike.

==> picture [102 x 43] intentionally omitted <==
Twelve shallower holes were drilled into the southern portion of the deposit seeking to define and extend near-surface gold mineralisation. Coherent mineralisation was intersected across all holes with better intersections including (Figure 5);
-
10m @ 1.0 g/t Au from 18m and 8m @ 1.1 from 47m in 21MARC001
-
10m @ 1.4 g/t Au from 51m in 21MARC002
-
5m @ 1.8 g/t Au from 55m in 21MARC003
-
4m @ 1.4 g/t Au from 12m in 21MARC005
-
4m @ 0.8 g/t Au from 33m in 21MARC006
-
4m @ 2.5 g/t Au from 120m in 21MARC007
-
4m @ 6.6 g/t Au from 8m including 2m @ 11.6 g/t Au in 21MARC008.
These results have aided in the domaining of mineralisation and a main lode of coherent mineralisation is now well defined.

Work on the technical studies on the potential open-pit mining operations, environmental studies and other work on Mon Ami continued with the objective being to have a “shovel ready” project to present to nearby mill owners as part of proposed commercial discussions. Numerous milling solutions exist within 150km of Mon Ami.

Extended Soil Surveys
The Company has received results from geochemical survey work, comprising over 1,554 soil samples and 23 rock chip samples, recently completed over a 10 km[2] area north of Beaks Mountain (Leichhardt Creek Survey area) (Figure 7).
The Leichhardt Creek Survey area is coincident with one of nineteen anomalies identified from the hyperspectral survey conducted in 2019 and co-funded by Evolution Mining Limited (ASX release 15/4/20).
The geochemical mapping program extended and refined the earlier 2020 survey (ASX release 20/7/20) which had not closed off gold anomalism. The survey area was therefore extended to the south and west on a wide spaced (100m x 100m) grid. The survey area was also infilled to a closer spacing (50m x 50m) in the Leichhardt West - Green Ant location where geological observations heightened the prospectivity.
These three soil surveys were designed to test the gold-copper-molybdenum metal associations and aimed to identify metal zonation patterns consistent with large IRGS.

Figure 7 - Extended soil survey at the Leichardt Creek Prospect showing simplified geology, metal ratio anomalies, rock chip assays and location names referred to in the text.
The geochemical anomalies are coincident with independent geological evidence consistant with IRGS in some areas and epithermal high sulphidation deposit styles in other areas. This evidence includes high-grade copper, gold and silver rock chips. Interestingly, the high-grade rock chips are located at the margins of the geochemical anomalies rather than at the newly identified core (Figure 7). This highlights the importance of methodically considering the overall geological and geochemical system, rather than individual mineralised outcrops.

Next Steps
Mon Ami:
GSN will complete the Mineral Resource classification upgrade for Mon Ami in the second quarter of 2021. The Company is also on track with the necessary technical and environmental studies to facilitate a mining approval in the second half of 2021 that contemplates processing at one of several nearby mills (refer ASX announcement 13 November 2020).
The high-grade down-plunge extension to the Mon Ami deposit discovered in this recent drilling campaign highlights the potential for further deposit extensions at a grade potentially suitable for future underground mining. Further assessment of the recent results is being undertaken for planning and design of a followup drill program.
Cox’s Find
The drilling down-plunge from Cox’s Find has noted significant mineralisation halos. This is a promising sign that a repeat of the ore body is not far away.
The samples from Cox’s Find have been assayed for 48 elements using a high-sensitivity analytical method. These results will be interpreted with the intention to map the litho-chemical signature to vector in on the alteration halo for high-grade extensions to the deposit.
Similarly, the along strike drilling to the south has also been assayed for multi elements and will be assessed for the presence of pathfinder elements known to indicate the presence of the Cox’s Find Orebody.
Duketon Belt
Following the acquisition of a collated, expansive database of the Duketon Belt, GSN is currently reviewing and planning systematic evaluations of the newly acquired tenements and prospects. The clear intent is to develop a strategic exploration pipeline with all levels of target generation.
The dataset includes more than 8,000m of RC drilling into the Golden Star Deposit suitable for inclusion in a JORC-compliant maiden mineral resource planned to follow the next round of RC drilling by GSN.
Further afield, GSN’s Duketon Belt database now has over 24,000 soil samples and in excess of 12,000 RAB, AC, RC, and DD drill holes. Most of these drill holes were drilled to refusal at less than 30m and many ended in gold mineralisation.
The first step in this pipeline will be aggressive drilling to expand the Golden Star deposit and test nearby targets. This drilling is fully permitted, and detailed planning is underway.
North Queensland
Soil surveys have also been conducted at Fish Creek, Spring Creek and Edinburgh Castle. These are presently being processed.
Field operations have now resumed with further field validation and mapping, including detailed traverses across the newly identified anomalies, with a focus on mapping the alteration halos associated with an IRGS that the circular metal zonation and geological observations suggest.
This work is being conducted with the objective of advancing several targets to the drill testing stage later in 2021.
