– Gravity Surveys Define New Targets West Spargoville & Yindi Projects
-
Ground gravity data acquisition, processing and interpretation has now been completed at the West Spargoville & Yindi Projects.
-
Results from the surveys show good correlation between gravity low features and mapped pegmatites which have defined multiple new targets at the Projects.
-
The completion of the gravity surveys represents the final stage of remote sensing data acquisition as the Company moves towards the next phase of drill testing.
-
The Company aims to complete ~3,000m of RC drilling at WSP in H1-FY2025.
-
At Yindi, a 2,335-hole auger sampling is to commence in the 2[nd] week of July followed by up to ~5,000m of RC drilling in H1-FY2025.
-
The focus at Yindi will be multiple, kilometre scale, gold in soil and lithium anomalies.
Marquee Resources Limited (“ Marquee ” or “ Company ”) (ASX:MQR) ) is pleased to announce the completion of a ground gravity surveys at the Company’s West Spargoville ( “WSP” ) and Yindi ( “Yindi” ) Projects . The surveys consisted of 5,308 and 1,456 gravity stations at WSP and Yindi respectively, with Southern Geoscience Consultants ( “SGC” ) completing gravity data processing, interpretation and 3D inversion modelling to aid in the delineation of pegmatite targets for subsequent drill testing. The ground gravity surveys represent the final stage of remote-sensing data acquisition as the Company progresses towards drilling.
Marquee Executive Chairman, Mr Charles Thomas, commented: “ The addition of the ground gravity data compliments the previous acquisition of magnetic, radiometric and geochemistry data and provides us with a powerful tool set for targeting mineralisation at the Projects. The combined data has provided us with a number of compelling lithium and gold targets across both projects and we will continue to refine our targeting criteria as we gear up to begin drill testing in the new financial year. The technical team is eager to be return to the field and begin the next phase of boots-on-ground exploration as soon as possible.”
Ground Gravity Surveys & Next Steps
West Spargoville Project
A 5,308-station ground gravity survey was completed over and an area of ~6 x 2.1km in the central part of the WSP where numerous, mineralised pegmatites have been observed in mapping and drilling data (Figure 1). The gravity survey was completed on a 50 x 50m grid pattern, with a high-priority area

completed on a 25 x 25m grid. The aim of the gravity survey was to aid in delineating low-density pegmatites undercover, so drill holes could be designed to test the best parts of the system. The gravity data correlated well with mapped pegmatites at surface and has identified numerous additional targets in areas undercover which represent compelling exploration targets.
The Company has designed an initial 3,000m reverse-circulation drilling program to test the highestpriority targets and will continue to interrogate the data to define further areas of interest. Drilling is to be undertaken following budget approval, heritage survey and earth works.

Yindi Project
A 1,456 station gravity survey was completed at Yindi to infill historical data and to provide 200 x 200m data coverage over the Project area (Figure 2). Since acquiring the Yindi Project, the Company has been diligently validating, reprocessing, and interpreting the historical data whilst acquiring complimentary auger geochemistry data (refer MQR ASX release dated 14 May 2024) and gravity data,

the subject of this release. The gravity data has helped identify favourable structural zones for the development of gold mineralisation and lithium-bearing pegmatites (Figure 2). The Company has identified multiple highly prospective zones that will be targeted with future exploration. The Company has now finalised remote sensing data acquisition with the next steps will be to complete infill auger geochemistry over high-priority areas to finalise drill target prioritisation.
Beginning in the second week of July, the Company will undertake a 2,335-hole auger sampling program to infill high-priority gold and lithium target areas. Following return of assay results, the Company will look to begin RC drill-testing as soon as possible, following obtaining the relevant approvals, and expects to complete up to 5,000m of drilling before the end of the year.

|---|---|
| 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. •Ground gravity surveys were completed by Atlas Geophysics at the West Spargoville Project and the Yindi Project. •WSP survey consisted of 5,308 survey stations. •Yindi survey consisted of 1,456 survey stations. •Survey spacings have been referred to in the body of the text. •Southern Geoscience Consultants (SGC) completed Enhanced Gravity Data Processing and Unconstrained 3D Gravity Inversion Models. |
| 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). •No drilling completed |
| Drill sample recovery |
