Horizon Gold Limited (ASX : HRN) (Horizon or Company) is pleased to announce additional shallow, broad and high-grade gold intercepts from drilling at its 100% owned Gum Creek Gold Project (Gum Creek or the Project) located in the Mid-West Region of Western Australia. Final assay results have been received from the remaining RC and diamond drilling program, which included drilling at the Eagle, Eagles Peak South, Hawk, Heron South, Hyperno-Reliance, Kingfisher, Melbourne Bitter, Manikato, Snook, South Reliance, Shiraz, Specimen Well, Think Big and Toedter prospects (Figure 1). The drilling has reduced the drill spacing to an approximate 20m x 20m drill pattern within pit shells optimised during the Scoping Study completed in March 2024.
Managing Director Leigh Ryan said:
“These drilling results confirm the extensive prospectivity across the entire Project and highlight the potential for a mine life well beyond the 2024 Scoping Study predictions. The results will be incorporated into the Company’s mineral resource estimate update which is due to be announced in Q3 2025.”

The Company completed a total of 122 RC holes for 8,032m at the Eagle, Eagles Peak South, Hawk, Hyperno-Reliance, Kingfisher, Manikato, Melbourne Bitter, Shiraz, South Reliance, Specimen Well, Think Big and Toedter prospects, and 12 geotechnical diamond holes for 1,456m at the Eagle, Kingfisher, Hawk, Heron South, Hyperno-Reliance, Melbourne Bitter, Think Big, Shiraz, Snook, Specimen Well and Toedter prospects. The program has confirmed historic drilling results and will further increase the resource confidence levels within each of the resource models. The structural and geotechnical information obtained from diamond core logging and downhole televiewer surveying will be used in gold resource modelling and will help determine the most appropriate wall angles in pit optimisation and pit design work for the FS.
Eagle Prospect
The Eagle Prospect is located 1.2km southeast of the historic Gidgee mill (Figure 1). The current Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for Eagle is 1.16Mt @ 1.85g/t Au for 68,800oz (Table A).
One HQ geotechnical diamond hole for 179m, and 14 RC holes for 1,212m were drilled. Geological and geotechnical core logging was completed and the collection and interpretation of televiewer surveys undertaken within three RC holes. Assay results have confirmed and extended previously identified shallow gold mineralisation along strike to the north and south of the Eagle pit (Figures 2 & 3). Numerous significant intercepts were returned (Table B) including:
-
14m @ 4.34g/t Au from 24m including 3m @ 18.66g/t Au from 32m (EARC022)
-
15m @ 2.15g/t Au from 47m including 3m @ 8.47g/t Au from 54m (EARC026)
-
1m @ 24.80g/t Au from 61m (EARC033)
-
5m @ 2.50g/t Au from 29m including 2m @ 5.76g/t Au from 31m (EARC028)
-
3m @ 3.77g/t Au from 23m (EARC020)
-
7m @ 1.60g/t Au from 46m (EARC029)
-
5m @ 2.19g/t Au from 104m to EOH (EARC023)
Gold mineralisation at Eagle is associated with quartz-carbonate-pyrite shear and tension veins within sericite-carbonate altered basalt. The results confirm moderately west dipping mineralised zones below shallow flat lying supergene mineralisation with both styles of mineralisation open along strike to the north and south where further drilling is required.
Wireframing of the Eagle gold mineralisation is underway in preparation for an updated mineral resource estimate.

Hyperno-Reliance and South Reliance Prospects
The Hyperno-Reliance and South Reliance prospects are located 17km south-southeast of the historic Gidgee mill (Figure 1). The current MRE for Hyperno-Reliance is 0.45Mt @ 1.31g/t Au for 18,800oz (Table A). The current MRE for South Reliance / Deep South is 0.22Mt @ 1.62g/t Au for 11,700oz (Table A).
Two HQ geotechnical diamond holes for 155m, and 45 RC holes for 2,461m were drilled at HypernoReliance and South Reliance. Geological and geotechnical core logging and downhole televiewer surveying and interpretation for geotechnical purposes was completed on three Hyperno and two Reliance RC holes. Assay results have confirmed the average width and grades of shallow gold mineralisation identified in historic drilling at the Hyperno, Reliance and South Reliance prospects (Figures 4 to 7). Numerous significant intercepts were returned (Table C) including:
-

Gold mineralisation at Hyperno and Reliance is associated with quartz veined limonitic saprolite extending at depth into altered quartz veined mafic volcanics within sub-parallel mineralised shear zones. Mineralisation is flat lying (supergene) and dips moderately to the east (primary mineralisation), has a continuous 600 metre strike length (Figures 4 to 6), and has only been pattern drilled to depth of approximately 50m. The area is deeply weathered, with the base of complete oxidation between 60m and 80m below surface. Gold mineralisation remains open at depth and along strike to the north and south, and further drilling is warranted.
Gold mineralisation at South Reliance is associated with quartz-carbonate-pyrite veins within sericitecarbonate altered basalt and dolerite units. Mineralisation dips steeply to the east and has a continuous 500 metre strike length (Figures 4 & 7). There appears to be less supergene mineralisation at South Reliance with the base of complete oxidation at 50m or less. Gold mineralisation remains open at depth and along strike to the north and south, and further drilling is warranted.
Wireframing of the Hyperno, Reliance and South Reliance gold mineralisation is underway in preparation for an updated mineral resource estimate.

Hawk Prospect
The Hawk Prospect is located 5km south-southeast of the historic Gidgee mill (Figure 1) and was previously mined by open cut methods. The current MRE for Hawk is 0.85Mt @ 1.26g/t Au for 34,400oz (Table A).
The Company drilled seven RC holes for 752m and one geotechnical diamond hole for 156.1m at the prospect. Geological and geotechnical logging was completed on diamond core, and downhole televiewer surveying was undertaken for geotechnical purposes in one RC hole. Gold assays have confirmed the width and average grades of the surrounding previous drill holes (Figures 8 & 9) with significant intercepts returned (Table D) including:
-
7m @ 7.21g/t Au from 123m including 1m @ 44.50g/t Au from 128m (HKDD001) (core)

==> picture [172 x 53] intentionally omitted <==
Gold mineralisation at Hawk is located within three sub-parallel, steeply south-west dipping shear zones containing shear veins and flat-lying quartz tension veins within pyritic sericite-silica altered basalt and limonitic saprolite. Mineralisation is continuous over a 500-metre strike and is currently defined to a maximum vertical depth of 130 metres, with high grade gold shoots open and plunging to the north. The base of weathering extends to approximately 120 metres below surface, with high-grade supergene enrichment overlaying primary gold mineralisation. Additional drilling is required down dip, down plunge and along strike to the north and south at Hawk, however an MRE update will be completed for FS purposes prior to further drilling. Wireframing of the Hawk gold mineralisation has commenced.

Melbourne Bitter Prospect
The Melbourne Bitter Prospect is located 26km north of the Gidgee Mill. The prospect has not been previously mined and the current MRE for the deposit is 0.36Mt @ 1.44g/t Au for 16,800oz (Table A).
Recent drilling at Melbourne Bitter included five RC holes for 428m and one geotechnical diamond hole for 130.7m (Figures 12 & 13). Geological and geotechnical core logging has provided important structural information which has been used to interpret complex mineralised trends at the prospect. The drilling confirmed previous shallow gold mineralisation identified in wider spaced historic RC drilling, and returned several gold intercepts (Table F) including:
-
19m @ 1.39g/t Au from 42m including 8m @ 2.93g/t Au from 49m (MBRC042)
-
28m @ 0.72g/t from 21m including 4m @ 2.33 g/t from 21m (MBRC043)
-
2m @ 5.44g/t from 56m (MBDD001)
-
10m @ 1.00g/t from 0m including 2m @ 3.55 g/t from 8m (MBRC039)
Gold mineralisation at Melbourne Bitter is located within deeply weathered, quartz veined, sheared interbedded carbonaceous sediments and basalt. Mineralisation at Melbourne Bitter is continuous over a 370 metre strike length and is currently defined to a vertical depth of approximately 120 metres (Figures 12 & 13). Primary gold mineralisation at Melbourne Bitter strikes north-northwest, and dips at ~80[0] to the west, in a series of stacked gold lodes. The prospect area is deeply weathered with the base of complete oxidation ~80m below surface.
The program has further defined and extended the known gold mineralisation to the south where it remains open at depth and along strike. Further drilling is warranted along strike to the south, however an MRE update will be completed prior to further drilling.

Toedter Prospect
The Toedter Prospect is located 48km north-northwest of the Gidgee Mill (Figure 1) and hosts a current MRE of 0.69Mt @ 1.54g/t Au for 34,000oz (Table A).
The Company completed twelve RC holes for 873m and one geotechnical diamond hole for 150.5m at the prospect (Figure 1). Geological and geotechnical core logging was completed, and downhole televiewer surveying was undertaken for geotechnical purposes in three RC holes. Gold results have defined the up-dip extent of mineralisation along the western margin of the deposit (Figures 14 & 15) with two significant intercepts outlined (Table G):
-
15m @ 1.84g/t Au from 13m including 4m @ 5.79g/t Au from 13m (TDRC012)
-
13m @ 1.06g/t Au from 70m including 3m @ 2.99g/t Au from 73m (TDDD001)
Gold mineralisation at Toedter is associated with quartz-carbonate-pyrite veined, strongly carbonatechlorite altered basalt and amphibolite located within a series of stacked shallow to moderate east dipping mineralised zones that appear to plunge shallowly to the south. Mineralisation is continuous over a 350-metre strike and is currently defined to a maximum vertical depth of ~140 metres, with the base of complete oxidation at ~40 metres below surface.
Mineralisation remains open along strike, down dip and down plunge with further drilling warranted down plunge to the south, however an MRE update will be completed prior to further drilling.

Feasibility Study Progress and Resource Expansion Drilling
Work on the Gum Creek Feasibility Study remains on schedule for completion early in 2026, with geotechnical studies and metallurgical test work being finalised, whilst environmental surveys, mine design work, heritage evaluation work and water management test work all advancing well. Water bore drilling is also underway, and pump tests will commence in July prior to producing a site-wide water balance model.
Further drilling, including resource expansion drilling at some of the 12 open pittable resource areas not included in the 2024 Scoping Study will be undertaken to further extend the potential mine life of the Gum Creek Gold Project. The Company is also considering additional drill testing at several highgrade underground targets, including looking at underground mining options to further advance the significant economic potential of the Project.
‐ The Company believes the Gum Creek Gold Project will be a robust, viable stand alone mining operation with the recent high gold prices only strengthening the March 2024 Scoping Study outcomes[2] and providing a high level of confidence for the current Feasibility Study outcomes.

APPENDIX 2: JORC TABLE 1 (SECTIONS 1 AND 2)
Section 1 - Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
| Criteria | Commentary | Commentary | |

| JORC Code explanation | |||
| Sampling techniques |
• Nature and quality of sampling (eg 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 (eg „reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised 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 (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
• HQ3 diamond core was drilled to various depths using a truck-mounted DRA 800 diamond drill rig. • Selected diamond core was cut in half using an on-site Almonte diamond saw and sampled at 1m intervals over mineralised intervals selected by the supervising geologist. • Sampling was undertaken using Horizon Gold Limited (HRN) sampling protocols and QAQC procedures in line with industry best practice, with laboratory standard reference material, sample blanks and sample duplicates were inserted/collected at every 25th sample in the sample sequence. • Reverse Circulation (RC) drill holes were routinely sampled at 1m intervals down the hole. The upper sections of some holes were sampled at 2m intervals. • Samples were collected at the drill rig using an industry standard rig- mounted cone splitter to collect a nominal 2 - 3 kg sub sample in a numbered calico sample bag, with the remaining sample retained at the drill site for future resampling and/or metallurgical sampling if required. • Routine standard reference material, sample blanks, and sample duplicates were inserted/collected at every 25th sample in the sample sequence. • All RC and half core diamond samples were submitted to Australian Laboratory Services (ALS) in Perth for preparation (including pulverising) to produce a 50g sub-sample for analysis for gold by 50g Fire Assay. Pre-2014 Drillholes • All RC samples were collected at 1m intervals through the drill rig cyclone and then split via riffle and cone splitters. RC samples were typically dry. Composite samples were collected by tube sampling the bulk RC sample bags. • Diamond drilling involved HQ and NQ core. Sampling of diamond core involved 1m sampling, with sampling over geological intervals (down to 0.1m) in more recent holes. The diamond core has generally been cut in half for sampling with some holes whole core sampled, and some quarter core sampled subsequent to half core sampling where alternate laboratory samples were submitted or thin section work was completed. • Initially assaying utilised the aqua regia process but most assays used in this report have been by fire assay with an AAS finish using the site laboratory or off-site laboratories. A 50g charge was generally used. • After the year 2000, samples (mainly grade control) were assayed at the accredited on-site laboratory at Gidgee using the Leachwell method. Leachwell cyanide (bottle-roll) assays are apparently more predictive of expected recoveries from Carbon-in-Pulp gold recovery plants, so provide a more realistic grade estimate. |
|
| Drilling techniques |
• Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg 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). |
• Diamond core was drilled from surface to facilitate geotechnical logging and sampling from surface. Industry standard barrels and triple tube barrels were used to obtain HQ3 core samples. • Diamond core holes were routinely surveyed for down hole deviation using a DeviGyro set to collect readings every 5m down each hole. • HQ3 core was orientated using Reflex orientation tools, with core initially cleaned and pieced together at the drill site. Core was then reconstructed into continuous runs on an angle iron cradle for down hole depth marking and then orientated with orientation lines marked up by HRN field staff at the Gidgee Core Shed. • All RC holes were completed by reverse circulation (RC) drilling techniques using a DR05 SREPS SR650 drill rig and auxiliary compressor. |

| Drill sample recovery |
• Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. • Measures taken to maximise 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. |
• Diamond drillers measure core recoveries for every drill run completed using either three or six metre core barrels. The core recovered is physically measured by tape measure and the length is recorded for every “run”. Core recovery is calculated as a percentage recovery. Core recovery is confirmed by Horizon field technicians and geologists during core orientation activities on site and recorded into the database. • Various diamond drilling additives (including muds and foams) were used to condition the drill holes and maximise recoveries and sample quality. • There is no significant loss of material reported in the mineralised parts of the diamond core intercepts reported. • A qualitative estimate of sample recovery was done for each RC sample metre collected from the drill rig. • A qualitative estimate of RC sample weight was completed to ensure consistency of sample size and to monitor sample recoveries. • Most RC material was dry when sampled, with damp and wet samples noted in sample sheets and referred to when assays were received. • Both RC and diamond core sample recovery and quality is considered to be adequate for the drilling technique employed. Pre-2014 Drillholes • Where documented, RC drilling returned good recoveries, however drill recoveries for some historical holes are not known. • All RC samples were split and mixed in the riffle splitting process. • Diamond core recovery was noted during the drilling and geological logging process as a percentage of core recovered vs. known / expected drill length. • There is no evidence of there being sample bias due to non- representative or preferential sampling. • No apparent relationships were noted in relation to sample recovery and grade. |

• All RC and diamond drill holes were geologically logged by a qualified Geologist. • Qualitative and quantitative geological logging recorded colour, grain size, weathering, oxidation, lithology, alteration, veining and mineralisation including the abundance of specific minerals, veining, and alteration using an industry standard logging and geological coding system. • Geotechnical logging was completed on all diamond core. • Structural measurements of foliation, shearing, faulting, veining, lineations etc. (using a kenometer to collect alpha and beta angles) were collected for all diamond core. These measurements were then plotted down drill traces in 3D software to aid geological interpretations and modelling of gold mineralisation. • Rock Quality Designation (RQD) measurements are completed on all diamond core. |

Pre-2014 Drillholes • All historical drill holes have been logged using the various company logging codes. The type of drill log varies with time depending on drill technique, year and company. • Logging included codes and descriptions of weathering, oxidation, lithology, alteration and veining. • Geological logging is qualitative and based on visual field estimates. • Not all RC and diamond core logs have been converted to a digital format. |

• 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. |
• Core samples were cut in half using an auto feed Almonte diamond core saw. Half core samples were collected for assay except duplicate samples which are quarter cut. All remaining core is retained and stored in core trays on site. • All RC samples were cone split at the drill rig with sample size and wet/dry notes made on RC sample sheets. • RC and diamond core duplicate samples were taken every 25 samples to evaluate whether samples were representative and as a check on laboratory methods. • Sample preparation was undertaken by ALS Perth. • At the laboratory, samples were weighed, dried and crushed to -6mm. The crushed sample was subsequently bulk-pulverised in an LM5 ring mill to achieve a nominal particle size of 85% passing <75um. • Sample sizes and laboratory preparation techniques are considered to be appropriate for the commodity being targeted. Pre-2014 Drillholes • RC sampling involved 1m RC cuttings, split using riffle splitter in dry materials and a wedge splitter or rotary splitter in wet materials. Usually a 2 - 3kg sample was retained. • DD has involved HQ and NQ core sizes. Sampling of diamond core has involved 1m sampling, with sampling over geological intervals (down to 0.1m) in more recent holes. The diamond core has generally been cut in half for sampling however some holes are whole core sampled and some quarter core sampled subsequent to half core sampling where alternate laboratory samples were submitted or thin section work was completed. • Where it has been suspected that drillholes were drilled down dip, scissor holes have been drilled. • Most drilling showed good sample recovery with the exception of some holes drilled in 1989. All RC samples were thoroughly mixed in the riffle splitting process. There is no stated evidence of there being sample bias due to preferential sampling. There is no relationship between sample recovery and grade. • Sample sizes and laboratory preparation techniques are considered to be appropriate for the commodity being targeted. |
|
| 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. |
• Analysis for gold only was undertaken at ALS Perth using 50g Fire Assay with AAS finish to a lower detection limit of 0.01ppm. Fire assay is considered a “total” assay technique. • No geophysical tools or other non-assay instrument types were used in the analyses reported. • Review of routine standard reference material and sample blanks suggest there are no significant analytical bias or preparation errors in the reported analyses. • Results of analyses from field sample duplicates are consistent with the style of mineralisation being evaluated and considered to be representative of the geological zones which were sampled. • Internal laboratory QAQC checks are reported by the laboratory. • Review of the internal laboratory QAQC suggests the laboratory is performing within acceptable limits. |

| • Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision have been established |
Pre-2014 Drillholes • Initially, assaying utilised the aqua regia process but most assays referred to in this report have been by fire assay with an AAS finish using the site laboratory or off-site laboratories. A 50g charge was used. After 2000, samples were assayed at the Gidgee accredited mine-site laboratory using the Leachwell method with approximately 30g of sample pulverised to 85% passing -200 mesh. The analytic techniques are considered appropriate. Where coarse gold occurred, offsite screen fire assaying was carried out using a 105 micron sieve. • Samples were submitted to off-site laboratories with check assays carried out in 1988. Further check assays were carried out in other years however this data has not been analysed. Some CRMs and blank samples were used prior to 2002 however there is insufficient information to complete an accurate analysis. There are records of laboratory standards and blanks having been submitted post 2002 and an analysis of these shows good correlation between results. No evidence has been found in the mining process that there were issues with assaying. An analysis of duplicates showed that in general the precision of samples was adequate. |

| 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. |
• All RC and diamond core geological and sampling data were recorded in the field in hard copy form, and subsequently data entered into Excel spreadsheets. • Assay results are merged with sampling data using established database protocols run in house by HRN. • Digital data (Excel spreadsheets) were uploaded into a relational database and validated by experienced database personnel and geological staff. Plans, cross sections and long sections were generated, and visual validation was completed in 3D (Micromine) as further quality control. • Twin holes were not utilized to verify results; however, some infill verification holes were completed to test the strike continuity of mineralisation. Virtually all drilling confirmed expected geological and mineralogical interpretations. • The deposits are reasonably continuous in terms of mineralisation and grade. The continuity and consistency of the grade intercepts down dip and along strike give reasonable confidence in the verification of the grade and style of deposit. • All historic reported data has been reported in technical reports submitted by previous tenement holders to the Western Australian Government which are now available as open file. • No adjustments were made to assay data except for replacing less than detection limit values with negative detection limit numerical values. • All significant intersections reported have been compiled and reviewed by senior geological personnel from the Company. |

| 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 collar locations were determined using GDA94 Zone 50 coordinates and datum. • Drill hole collars were positioned and picked up on hole completion using a Carlson BRx7 DGPS (GDA94 Zone 50). DGPS eastings, northings and RL’s have been used for all RC and diamond hole collars. • Diamond core holes are routinely surveyed for down hole deviation using a DeviGyro set to collect readings every 5m down each hole. All RC drill holes were surveyed for down hole deviation using an Axis Champ Navigator north seeking downhole gyro with downhole readings collected every 10m. • The topography at all prospects drilled is flat, however 3D topographic surfaces or Digital Terrain Models (DTMs) were built using a combination of mine surveyor pickups, drill hole DGPS RL pickups and RL’s from specifically selected DGPS points. • Locational accuracy at the collar and down the drill hole is considered appropriate for this stage of exploration and for resource estimation work. |

| Pre-2014 Drillholes • Planned drill hole locations were positioned by either hand-held global positioning satellite (GPS) in AMG84 or GDA94 zone 50 datums or pegged on local grids by a mine surveyor and transformed to GDA94 coordinates. The majority of holes have subsequently been picked up by DGPS and were generally found to be within 1m horizontal and 1m vertical accuracy. • Historic drilling coordinates include both local, AMG84 and GDA94 coordinates. The Company database contains all sets of coordinates, but for the purpose of this report the GDA94 grid coordinates have been used. All coordinates are reported in GDA94 – Zone 50 grid datum. • The topography at all prospects drilled is flat. • All drill collars were displayed in Micromine and visually checked against the DTMs. The DTMs were created using a combination of surveyed pit and waste dump pickups, DGPS pickups of historical and more recent drill hole collars, and specifically selected DGPS pickup points. RL data bias or error is considered low given the flat topography at all prospects reported. • Down-hole surveys were routinely performed every 5m to 30m using a range of single shot, electronic multi-shot and north seeking gyro tools. A visual check of the traces in Micromine was also completed, with no anomalous surveys being identified. All down survey data is recorded in the Company’s drill hole database. • Survey details for some historical holes are not known. • Location data is considered to be of sufficient accuracy for reporting of mineral resources. |

| Data spacing and distribution |
• 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 estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied. • Whether sample compositing has been applied. |
• Holes reported were drilled at nominal 15m to 20m spacings on sections, with sections spaced 20m, 25m or 40m apart depending on the existing drill line spacing. Holes were drilled vertically (Think Big), towards 2700(GDA94z50) at Hyperno-Reliance, South Reliance, Manikato, Specimen Well, Think Big, Toedter, Heron South and Snook, towards 900(GDA94z50) at Eagle, and Eagles Peak South, towards 550 at Hawk and Kingfisher, towards 80 at Melbourne Bitter, and towards 340and 740at Shiraz. • The reported drilling has not yet been used to estimate any mineral resources or reserves, however the drill hole distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for Mineral Resource estimation procedures and classifications. • Sample compositingwasnot applied to thereportedintervals. |
|
| 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. |
• Drilling has targeted known mineralisation which has been previously drilled in some detail. Holes have therefore generally been drilled to intersect target zones at an optimal orientation (perpendicular) and no significant sampling bias is expected. |
|
| Sample security | • The measures taken to ensure sample security. |
• Samples are stored on site in a locked compound before being delivered by company personnel to the Toll/Global Express depot in Meekatharra, prior to road transport to the laboratory in Perth via a large reputable trucking company (normally Toll or Global Express). Pre-2014 Drillholes • There is no evidence to suggest inadequate drill sample security prior to 2014. |

| Geology | • Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. |
The project is located in the Gum Creek Greenstone Belt, within the Southern Cross Province of the Youanmi Terrane, a part of the Archaean Yilgarn craton in Western Australia. The Gum Creek Greenstone belt forms a lensoid, broadly sinusoidal structure approximately 110 km long and 24 km wide. It is dominated by mafic volcanic and sedimentary sequences. Eagle Gold mineralisation at Eagle occurs as steeply dipping quartz-carbonate shear veins and flat lying quartz-carbonate tension vein arrays developed in altered basalt within the NNW oriented steeply west dipping Kingfisher shear zone. Carbonate-sericite- sulphide wall rock alteration is common proximal to mineralised zones and extensive supergene gold enrichment often overlays primary mineralisation. |

• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. • Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and 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. |
• All drill hole intersections are reported from 1 metre down hole samples (but may include 2m composite samples where noted). • Intersection gold grade is calculated as length weighted average of sample grades. • A minimum cut-off grade of 0.2g/t Au is applied to the reported intervals. • Maximum internal dilution is 2m within a reported interval. • No top cut-off grade has been applied. • No metal equivalent reporting is used or applied. • All intercepts greater than 2 GxM are reported in Tables B to M. |

| Specimen Well Prospect Primary gold mineralisation at Specimen Well strikes north-northeast, and is sub- vertical to steeply east dipping, with drilling oriented at right angles to strike and at an average of ~400to the dip of mineralisation, implying true width of mineralisation to be ~71% of intercept width. |

| Diagrams | • Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
Appropriate drill hole plans, sections and tables of significant intercepts are included in this announcement. |
|
| 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. |
Drilling results have been comprehensively reported in this announcement. All information considered material to the reader’s understanding of the Exploration Results and data has been reported. |
|
| 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. |
There is no other exploration data which is considered material to the results reported in this announcement. |
|
| 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. |
Diagrams highlighting possible extensions to mineralisation are included in the body of the announcement and further drilling where appropriate will be undertaken to follow up the results reported. Additional metallurgical test work (cyanide / leach) is underway for the Kingfisher and Reliance prospects. A mineral resource estimate update is planned for 2025. |
