ASX:MM8

Medallion Raises $4.8 million to Continue to Advance the Ravensthorpe Gold Project

Highlights

  • Medallion receives commitments to raise $4.8 million (before costs) through a heavily overbid share placement

  • Medallion will emerge with a strengthened cash balance of over $8 million to accelerate exploration efforts and drill programs currently underway at the Company’s projects, primarily the Ravensthorpe Gold Project (“RGP”).

  • The RGP has an existing Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) of 8.8Mt @ 2.4 g/t Au for 674,000 ounces and is open in all directions.[1]

  • Since the updated MRE, the Company is circa 85% through a 30,000m drilling program, with 26,000m of the program being extensional drilling to grow the Resource.

  • A material MRE update is expected in March 2022.

Managing Director, Paul Bennett, commented:

“Completion of this capital raising is critically important to maintain Medallion’s growth ambitions. We are now in a strong position to maintain a permanent drill presence at Ravensthorpe and keep our outstanding team together to continue to grow the resource and test the multiple regional opportunities.”

Drill Programme Update

Medallion’s 32,000m drill programme at the RGP is progressing rapidly with approximately 26,000m of Reverse Circulation (“RC”) & Diamond (“DDH”) drilling completed to date, with a substantial proportion of that drilling targeted at extending the existing MRE of 8.8Mt @ 2.4 g/t Au for 674,000 ounces . With numerous high grade extensional drilling results returned beyond the limits of the resource already, Medallion is targeting the release of a substantial update to the global MRE at RGP in March 2022.

Post the Placement, the Company will emerge with over $8.1 million in cash to continue to rapidly advance the RGP. Of the circa 26,000m of drilling completed to date, assays for circa 9,000m remain outstanding and the Company expects a steady release of assay results into the future, along with the continuation of current drilling programs well into 2022. The drilling programme is designed to extend the existing resources and test the multiple regional exploration targets and continue to deliver successful results for the Company and its shareholders
