ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

2 November 2021

EXCELLENT DRILL RESULTS ENHANCE EMERGING CABLE-BOLLARD POTENTIAL

Odyssey Gold Limited (ASX:ODY) (“Odyssey” or “Company”) is pleased to announce results from drilling along the Cable-Bollard trend, part of the Company’s exciting Tuckanarra Gold Project.

HIGHLIGHTS

==> picture [9 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Phase 2 reverse circulation (“RC”) drilling along the Cable-Bollard trend, which comprised a total of 33 holes for 6,913 metres, is now complete.

==> picture [9 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

New assays results from south of Cable include:

12m @ 9.1g/t Au from 132m 28m @ 1.6g/t Au from 80m 4m @ 8.6g/t Au from 12m 16m @ 3.0g/t Au from 164m

==> picture [9 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Previous results from north of Cable include:

4m @ 27.7g/t Au from 196m 20m @ 1.2g/t Au from 132m

==> picture [9 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Phase 2 drilling has extended the Cable-Bollard trend to over 1,500m, with mineralisation remaining open at depth and along strike in both directions.

==> picture [9 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Cable-Bollard trend includes multiple parallel mineralised structures comprising banded iron formation (“BIF”) units, sheared quartz veins in mafic intrusives and metavolcanics, and highly silicified ultramafics, with consistent mineralisation occasionally interrupted by cross cutting dykes.

==> picture [9 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

  • Structurally controlled high grade zones are developing, including the new “Highway” zone where 12m @ 9.1g/t Au was intersected 90m down dip of a historical drill intersection of 20m @ 5.7g/t (TPH0238).

Executive Director, Matt Syme commented:

“We are very pleased with how the potential of the Cable-Bollard trend is emerging. Over 1.5km of strike, open at depth and at both ends and we have also identified some exciting high-grade zones. Not to mention the potential in BIFs and structures that are as yet untested. It is becoming increasingly apparent that the pits at Cable and Bollard were mined just for low hanging fruit in the 1990’s, with no real examination of the broader geology and resource potential. Our results to date demonstrate the developing scale and grade promise both laterally and at depth.”

TUCKANARRA PROJECT

The Company’s Phase 2 exploration program comprises approximately 25,000m of drilling as well as a range of geophysical, geochemical, and geological surveys. The Phase 2 drill program includes approximately 20,500m (98 holes) of RC and 4,500m (45 holes) of diamond core (“DD”), focussed mainly on the Bottle Dump, Cable and Bollard deposits, as well as a number of other known areas of gold mineralisation.

CABLE-BOLLARD TREND DRILLING

Odyssey has completed a total of 48 holes (9,147m) at Cable-Bollard as part of Phase 1 and 2 drilling programs and has now received assays for all bar one of the Phase 2 holes (TCKRC0089).

==> picture [494 x 330] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 2. Phase 2 RC drill rig adjacent to the Bollard pit.

Drilling along the Cable-Bollard trend has produced highly compelling results, with gold mineralisation now extended from south of the Bollard pit, north to the Cable pit and then a further 400m north of Cable, for a total strike length of approximately 1,500m. These results and the continuity of mineralisation, which is open down dip and plunge, and along strike at both ends, further encourages the strong resource potential along the Cable-Bollard trend.

The Cable-Bollard trend comprises at least 2-4 parallel mineralised structures made up of BIF units, sheared quartz veins in mafic intrusives and metavolcanics and highly silicified ultramafics resembling BIF’s, with consistent gold mineralisation occasionally interrupted by barren cross cutting felsic dykes. There appears to be a strong structural control to the mineralisation, especially the high-grade zones.

‘HIGHWAY’ ZONE

An exciting new zone of mineralisation, the “Highway” zone (Figure 3), is interpreted to be a probable continuation of the Cable East structure, where the recent drilling has intersected 12m @ 9.1g/t Au, (TCKRC0100) 90m down dip of historical drill results including 20m @ 5.7g/t Au (TPH0238), 3m @ 9.3g/t Au (TPH0134) and 3m @ 4.1g/t Au (TPH0223); which form a consistent near surface trend of mineralisation hosted within weathered material.

==> picture [381 x 315] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 3. Cross Section A-'A' showing mineralisation in TCKRC0100 (Highway zone).

Further drilling along strike to the north and south of TCKRC0100 will be undertaken to test the extent of this mineralised structure and its relationship to the main Cable-Bollard trend structures. The current high resolution drone magnetic survey will also provide insights into the structural controls in this area.

==> picture [167 x 35] intentionally omitted <==

BOLLARD PIT EXTENSIONS

Historical drilling below the structurally complex Bollard pit shows high-grade mineralisation extending up to 50m below the pit floor. Odyssey’s recent drilling (Figure 4) has confirmed the down-dip continuity of both of the main Cable-Bollard mineralisation structures at Bollard to a depth of around 150m. There are indications that secondary hanging-wall and footwall zones of mineralisation may be present.

==> picture [382 x 315] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 4. Cross Section B-'B' showing mineralisation in TCKRC0104 & TCKRC0096.

The intersection of 16m @ 2.9g/t Au in hole TCKRC0104 is hosted within sheared quartz veins within laminated and sheared BIF’s and basalts, typical of Cable West style mineralisation. Other intersections below the pit returned from the Phase 2 drilling program include 28m @ 1.6g/t Au from 80m (TCKC0090) and 8m @ 1.5g/t Au from 44m (TCKRC0098), hosted in sheared and laminated BIF’s and mafic intrusives, typical of Cable East style mineralisation.

Immediately north of the Bollard pit the geology becomes more complex, with cross-cutting structures and disruptive felsic dykes affecting the delineation of the mineralisation.

In this area, hole TCKRC0108 (Figure 5) appears to have intersected a previously unidentified zone of mineralisation around 100m to the west of the Cable West unit, potentially indicating the presence of a further parallel mineralised structure. Additional drilling is planned to test the continuity of this zone of mineralisation.

==> picture [382 x 315] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 5. Cross section C -'C' showing mineralisation in TCKRC0108 and TCKRC0107.

Planned infill RC and diamond drilling, combined with the recently completed high-resolution drone magnetic survey, will greatly assist in forming a stronger understanding of the geology and controls on mineralisation in the area, and the targeting of these potential zones of mineralisation.

==> picture [167 x 35] intentionally omitted <==

CABLE NORTH

Immediately north of the Cable pit (60m), recent drilling (TCKRC0110 and TCKRC0111) has intercepted both the Cable West and Cable East structures in a previously untested position, below historical workings.

==> picture [485 x 305] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 6. Long Section illustrating extent of currently defined Cable West mineralisation.

As previously reported, TCKRC0111 encountered 4m @ 27.7g/t Au from 196m (4m composite samples) in the interpreted Cable West mineralised structure (Figure 6), below and immediately along strike of the northern end of the Cable pit ( refer ASX announcement dated 14 October 2021 ). Note the parallel Cable East mineralisation is behind the Cable West mineralisation and is excluded from the long section.

Overall, the mineralised structures have been extended for 400m north of the Cable pit with wide spaced drilling ending at hole TCKRC0017 which encountered 20m @ 1.2g/t Au from 132m, interpreted to be hosted within sheared quartz veins within magnetite rich basalts, typical of Cable West style mineralisation.

The Cable-Bollard trend appears to continue significantly further north beyond the limit of the Phase 2 drilling. The limited historical surface mapping indicates that there is potential for the mineralised structures to continue for a further 500m north.

==> picture [167 x 35] intentionally omitted <==

SUMMARY

The Phase 2 program along the Cable-Bollard trend has produced very encouraging results, extending the strike of the gold mineralisation to over 1,500m, as well as highlighting again the potential for highgrade zones or shoots within a broader background of shallow drill intercepts in the 1-2 g/t Au range. The continuity of the mineralisation is occasionally broken by crosscutting, barren felsic dykes.

Diamond drilling is ongoing at Cable-Bollard and will provide important structural and geological information about the controls on gold deposition.

NEXT STEPS

  • Continue detailed field mapping north of the Cable pit (400m north is the current limit of the historical mapped mineralised structures), between the Cable and Bollard pits, and to the south of the Bollard pit, along the Cable-Bollard trend and the newly defined Highway zone anomaly.

  • Soil geochemistry north of the Cable pit and around the Cable-Bollard pits where appropriate (the area has been highly disturbed at surface due to historical workings).

  • Integration of soil geochemistry and detailed field mapping with recently acquired high-resolution magnetic survey data.

  • Infill DD and RC drilling to further improve geological and structural understanding of the mineralisation continuity along the Cable-Bollard trend, which remains open down dip and plunge, and along strike at both ends.

  • Infill drilling will also be undertaken to improve the drilling density in areas immediately adjacent to or below the historical pits.

  • RC drilling to test the potential extensions of the Cable-Bollard trend to the north and south.

Refer to Appendix 1 for new assays and Appendix 2 for one metre re-splits from previously announced four metre composites.

APPENDIX 3 - JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
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.
Sampling methods used for samples in this release were:
4m composites - Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling
1m samples - Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling
All sampling was either supervised by, or undertaken by,
qualified geologists.
4m RC composite samples were submitted to Minanalytical
Laboratory Perth where the sample was crushed, and pulverised
and 400-600g sample assayed by Photon Assay.
1m RC samples were submitted to Intertek Laboratory, Perth
where the entire sample was crushed, a 300g split was
pulverized and a 50g charge was fire assayed/ICP-OES finish.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure
sample representation and the appropriate
calibration of any measurement tools or systems
used.
The collar locations of the drill holes were surveyed using a
handheld GPS Sampling was carried out under the ODY
protocols and QAQC. See further details below.
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.
The RC samples were collected by spear at 1m intervals and
combined into 4m composites.
Where the 4m composite grade returned was >0.5ppm Au, 1m
RC samples for each of the metres were submitted to Intertek
Laboratory, Perth where the entire sample was crushed, a 300g
split was pulverized and a 50g charge was fire assayed/ICP-
OES finish.
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).
RC drilling has been undertaken by Strike Drilling.
Downhole surveys for both RC and DDH drilling are recorded
using a True North seeking GYRO survey tool.
Drill
sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing core and chip
sample recoveries and results assessed.
The majority of the samples were understood to be dry. Ground
water ingress occurred in some holes at rod change but overall,
the holes were kept dry. Typically, drilling operators ensured
water was lifted from the face of the hole at each rod change to
ensure water did not interfere with drilling and to make sure
samples were collected dry.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and
ensure representative nature of the samples.

Drilling is carried out orthogonal to the mineralization to get
representative samples of the mineralization.
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.
No relationship between recovery and grade has been identified
to date in the data review stage.
Logging Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a level
of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource
estimation, mining studies and metallurgical
studies.
All RC chips are logged onsite by geologists to a level of detail
to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining
studies and metallurgical studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in
nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc)
photography.
Logging is qualitative and records lithology, grain size, texture,
weathering, structure, alteration, veining and sulphides. Core
and chips are digitally photographed.
The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged
All holes are logged in full.
Sub-
sampling
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter,
half or all core taken.

techniques
and sample
preparation
If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary
split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry.
RC samples were collected by spear from 1m sample bags and
combined into 4m composite samples.
Original 1m samples collected off the rig were submitted for 4m
intervals which returned Au>0.5pp in the composite sample.
For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness of the sample preparation
technique.
4m RC composite samples were submitted to Minanalytical
Laboratory Perth where the sample was crushed, and
pulverised.
1m RC samples were submitted to Intertek Laboratory, Perth
where the entire sample was crushed, a 300g split was
pulverized and a 50g charge was fire assayed/ICP-OES finish.
The sample preparation procedures carried out are considered
acceptable. All coarse and pulp rejects are retained on site
Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-
sampling stages to maximise representation of
samples.
RC samples were collected by spear from 1m sample bags and
4m composites were made from approximately equal samples
from each 1m interval.
1m samples were collected from the rig riffle splitter.
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.
The technique to collect the 1m samples was via a rig mounted
riffle splitter. Field duplicate samples from the 4m composites
and 1m RC samples were submitted to the laboratory at the rate
of 1 sample in 50 samples.
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain
size of the material being sampled.
Sample sizes are considered appropriate to give an indication of
mineralisation.
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.
4m RC composite samples were submitted to Minanalytical
Laboratory Perth where the sample was crushed, and pulverised
and 400-600g sample assayed by Photon Assay.
1m RC samples were submitted to Intertek Laboratory, Perth
where the entire sample was crushed, a 300g split was
pulverized and a 50g charge was fire assayed/ICP-OES finish.

Verification
of sampling
and
assaying
The verification of significant intersections by
either independent or alternative company
personnel.
All assays are reviewed by Odyssey Gold and significant
intercepts are calculated as composites and reported using a
nominal 0.5g/t Au cut-off grade; however, intercepts may be
reported within sub-grade mineralisation if dictated by a
geological domain. A maximum of 3m consecutive internal
waste is nominally allowed in composites. All significant
intercepts are calculated by Odyssey’s data base manager and
checked by the Competent Person.
The use of twinned holes. There have been no recent twin holes drilled at the Project.
Documentation of primary data, data entry
procedures, data verification, data storage
(physical and electronic) protocols.
All drill hole logging is completed on digital logging templates
with built-in validation. Logging spreadsheets are uploaded and
validated in a central MS Access database. All original logging
spreadsheets are also kept in archive
Discuss any adjustment to assay data. No assay data was adjusted.
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.
Drill hole collars are located using handheld GPS with 3-5m
accuracy. Downhole surveys for both RC and DDH drilling are
recorded using a True North seeking GYRO survey tool.
The location of the Blue Gino Prospect, and rock samples has
been shown as a general region to avoid potential unauthorised
disturbance, and environmental damage.
Specification of the grid system used. The project currently uses the MGA94, Zone 50 grid system.
Quality and adequacy of topographic control. The site topographic surveys including the pit surveys match
well with the drill hole collars. Detailed aerial photography over
the region has aided on locating drillhole collars.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Data
spacing
and
distribution
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. Drill hole spacing for the 2021 drill program is variable as most
drilling to date is either first pass drilling of new exploration
targets or step-out brownfields exploration targeting along strike
from existing Resources. In general, drill hole collar spacing on
new exploration traverses has been between 20-100m with hole
depths designed to provide angle-overlap between holes on the
drill traverse (i.e., the collar of each hole is located vertically
above the bottom of the preceding hole).
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.
Some drilling is on a spacing which is sufficient to test the grade
continuity of mineralisation for this style of mineralisation. The
current data set is considered potentially appropriate for use in a
future Mineral Resource providing further drilling is completed.
Whether sample compositing has been applied. RC samples at 4m intervals using a spear sample of 1m
samples.
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.
It is considered the orientation of the bulk of the drilling and
sampling suitably captures the dominant “structure” of the style of
mineralisation at Tuckanarra.
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.
This is not currently considered material. The bulk of the
intercepts appear to be orthogonal to the mineralisation +/- 25
degrees unless otherwise stated in the intercepts table. Further
work will be undertaken to analyse this in the future as
exploration works progress. Assay intercepts are stated as
down-hole lengths.
Sample
security
The measures taken to ensure sample security. RC samples are collected in prenumbered calico bags. Samples
are delivered to the lab directly by Odyssey personnel.
Audits or
reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data.
All QAQC data is reviewed to ensure quality of assays; batches
containing standards that report greater than 2 standard
deviations from expected values are re-assayed.

Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.
The Project area is located within the Meekatharra-Wydgee
Greenstone belt within the north-eastern Murchison Domain.
The majority of greenstones within the Meekatharra-Wydgee
belt have been stratigraphically placed within the Polelle Group
and the Norie Group of the Murchison Supergroup.
The Project area covers Archean basement rocks assigned to
the 2815-2805 Ma basal Norie group of the Murchison
Supergroup, which covers the eastern margin of the
Meekatharra-Wydgee greenstone belt. The Norie group
comprises a thick succession of pillowed and massive tholeiitic
basalts of the Muroulli Basalt, and conformably overlying and
mafic schist and felsic volcanoclastics with interbedded BIF and
felsic volcanic rocks of the Yaloginda Formation (Van
Kranendonk et al, 2013). These rocks are folded around the
south- plunging Besley Anticline. Adjacent to these rocks are the
mafic sequences of the Meekatharra Formation (Polelle Group).
Granitoids in the Project area comprise of the Jungar Suite and
Annean Supersuite to the east and the Munarra Monzogranite
oftheTuckanarra Suite to thewest. The JungarSuite comprises

of foliated to strongly sheared K-feldspar-porphyritic
monzogranites. These rocks are characterized by strong shear
fabrics that suggest they may have been emplaced during, or
just before, shearing. The Annean Supersuite includes
hornblende tonalite and monzogranitic rocks. The Tuckanarra
Suite consists of strongly foliated and locally magmatically
layered granodiorite to monzogranitic rocks.
The Project is situated within the ‘Meekatharra structural zone’,
a major regional, NE-trending shear dominated zone, about 50
to 60km wide, stretching from Meekatharra through the Cue
region as far south as Mount Magnet. This major shear zone is
dominated by north and northeast-trending folds and shears
(e.g. Kohinoor shear). The Mt Magnet fault is the major east-
bounding structure of the Meekatharra structural zone.
The mineralised zones of the Project are located in the
Tuckanarra greenstone belt comprising a series of mafic and
inter-banded mafic and iron formations, with a variable
component of clastic sediments, (greywackes and minor
shales). The sequence is folded into a south‐westerly plunging
anticline with a well-developed axial plane cleavage and
numerous fractures, bedding parallel faults and shears. The belt
extends northwards to Stake Well and east towards the
Reedys mining centre.
The area has four large open pits, extensive minor gold
workings, and prospecting pits principally associated with mafic
lithologies and Altered Ferruginous Transitional (AFT) and
Altered Ferruginous Fresh (AFF) material which were originally
banded iron formations. The magnetite content within the
AFT/AFF’s has been destroyed and predominantly altered to an
assemblage of hematite with the relic structure of the banded
iron intact.
Where mineralised veins intersect major competency contrasts
such as high magnesium basalt or AFT/AFF, veining becomes
layer parallel resulting in larger deposits such as the Bollard and
Cable deposits.
A number of styles of gold mineralisation have been identified in
the area including:

Mineralised AFT and AFF material ± quartz veining
(Cable East, Cable Central);

Quartz veins ± altered basalts (Cable West, Lucknow,
Maybelle, Maybelle North, Miners’ Dream); and

Gold mineralisation within laterite (Anchor, Bollard,
Drogue).
Below the base of complete oxidation (~40m) gold
mineralisation is commonly seen associated with quartz‐
pyrrhotite veins and pyrrhotite replacement of the host rocks.
Prospective models for the discovery of additional gold deposits
in the area are related to the intersection of shear zones with
prospectivelithologies.
Drill hole
Information
A summary of all information material to the
understanding of the exploration results
including a tabulation of the following information
for all Material drill holes:

easting and northing of the drill hole
collar

elevation or RL (Reduced Level –
elevation above sea level in metres) of
the drill hole collar

dip and azimuth of the hole

down hole length and interception depth

hole length.
If the exclusion of this information is justified on
the basis that the information is not Material and
this exclusion does not detract from the
understanding of the report, the Competent
Person should clearly explain why this is the
case.
All new drill hole details are provided in Appendix 1.

Data
aggregation
methods
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.
Significant intercepts are reported as down-hole length-
weighted averages of grades above a nominal 0.5 g/t Au; or
according to geological/mineralised units in occasional cases
where warranted. No top cuts have been applied to the
reporting of the assay results.
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.
Higher grade intervals are included in the reported grade
intervals; and have also been split out on a case-by-case basis
where relevant.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal
equivalent values should be clearly stated.
No metal equivalent values are used.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths
These relationships are particularly important in
the reporting of Exploration Results.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect
to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should
be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths
are reported, there should be a clear statement
to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not
known’).
The bulk of the exploration drilling was conducted so that results
would be close to orthogonal to the mineralisation as
understood at the time; however, the true relationship to the
mineralisation is not accurately determined.
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.
Refer to Figures in the body of this announcement and
Appendix 1.
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.
Balanced reporting has been used. The exploration results
should be considered indicative of mineralisation styles in the
region. Exploration results stated indicated highlights of the
drilling and are not meant to represent prospect scale
mineralisation. As the projects are brownfields exploration
targets, and there are large numbers of holes drilled over the
region, it is considered appropriate to illustrate mineralised and
non-mineralised drill holes by the use of diagrams, with
reference to the table of significant intercepts.
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.
No other meaningful data is required to be presented other than
what has been presented in the body of 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.
Additional drilling is planned to test extensions at the Bottle
Dump prospect and other targets in the Tuckanarra and
Stakewell Projects.
