Key Facts

  • Only 49.3M shares on issue
  • Strong institutional support:

Unlocking an Entire Gold Corridor Alice River Gold Project

  • Large-scale gold system with potential for highgrade gold zones below the current level of exposure
  • Advanced and compelling targets currently being drilled
  • Exceptional exploration upside to drive discovery driven growth – large untested shear zone
  • Overlooked for 20 years opportunity to apply modern exploration models and techniques

Investment Highlights PACGOLD LIMITED (ASX:PGO)

First mover in an overlooked prospective gold terrain – strong ground position (inc. granted mining leases), AngloGold Ashanti now securing tenure nearby in the province

Untapped upside for large gold discoveries within a high-grade Intrusion Related Gold System – opportunity to apply modern exploration models and techniques

An energised and experienced Board and Management team with a track record of discovery through to development and production, with 'skin in the game'

Drilling Underway – 5,000m programme targeting advanced, near-surface, high-value gold targets

Alice River Gold Project Overview Acquisition & Mining History

  • Limited exploration over past 20 years (held by private company / prospector) Pacgold acquired the project from a deceased estate in Dec 2020 (100%). Minimal upfront payments - success milestone payments linked to JORC indicated resource definition and a 2% NSR.1
  • 30km of prospective target structures mostly concealed beneath thin sand cover and secured under 377km2 of 5 granted EPMs and 8 granted Mining Leases (ML)

Mining History

1900's Late 1980's Late 1990's
Several underground mines Open pit mining to 40m, Colluvial & alluvial ore,
up to 40m deep over 3km,3,000oz Au @ 30g/t Au 30,000oz @ 5.6g/t Au 3,000oz Au @ 2.5g/t Au

1980's – 1990's campaigns - Gold produced via Carbon in Pulp (CIP) processing

1 Full acquisition terms are detailed in Pacgold's IPO Prospectus dated 25 May 2021 - ASX release 06/07/2021

Intrusion Related Gold Systems - IRGS

Model driven exploration to accelerate the timeline to discovery

Alice River Gold Project:

  • Many similarities to the Donlin Creek gold mine (39Moz Au, Alaska) IRGS model
  • Opportunity to apply the latest IRGS model not previously applied on the project
  • Metal zonation, quartz vein textures and structural analysis very applicable in identifying high-grade gold zones
  • Early diamond drilling by Pacgold will refine our IRGS model to ensure effective and predictive exploration for discovery

Large-Scale Gold System

Overlooked by modern exploration

Gold intersected in regional scout drilling along a 30km-long shear zone

Pacgold's initial focus on three priority targets covering 7km of the gold bearing shear zone:

Central Target

Compelling targets along strike from open pit mine and down-plunge extensions to high-grade gold mineralisation – Drilling in progress

Southern Target

Broad untested gold / IP geophysics targets 1.8km x 500m – Drilling planned

Northern Target – Regional Pipeline

2.5km-long extension to Alice River Shear Zone under shallow cover; confirmed with new IP geophysics

New High-Resolution IP Geophysics

Resistivity IP lows define extensive gold mineralised corridors beneath shallow cover

Central Target

Defining new structures and new targets along strike from open pit mine

Log Resistivity IP – 3D model (horizontal slice) Chargeability IP – 3D model (horizontal slice)

Central Target

Advanced modelling of resistivity IP enables mapping gold corridors in 3D

Log Resistivity IP –3D model (horizontal slice)

Log Resistivity IP –3D model (vertical slice / x-section) beneath open pit

Central Target – Long Section

Gold mineralisation open along strike and at depth beneath historical open pit

FORWARD PROGRAMME FOR THE CENTRAL TARGET

First phase of drilling in progress - 1,000m DD and 3,000m RC Expected completion Dec 2021 VISIBLE GOLD IN CORE ARDH001

  • Target bonanza gold zones deeper in the system – follow the vein textures
  • Limited previous drilling along strike and at depth below high-grade open pit
  • Current drilling stepping out along strike and down dip on shear zone

Southern Target

High-grade gold in limited previous drilling

  • Historical high grades intersected in limited shallow drilling over 1.5km
    • 8m @ 55.9g/t Au incl. 4m 111g/t Au
    • 4m @ 27g/t Au
    • 18m @ 4.6g/t Au
  • New IP geophysics defines target corridor over 2.5km (beneath extensive thin cover sediments)
  • Open to the north and south
  • Not effectively tested by previous shallow drilling (ave. depth 39m)

Southern Target

Potentially wide, untested gold zones

First phase of drilling planned – 200m DD and 1,000m RC

ASX: PGO | 14

Northern Target

2.5km extension of high-grade target zone

  • New IP Geophysics defines extension of Alice River Shear Zone over 2.5km north from Central Target
  • High-grade gold intersected in very limited previous shallow drilling (open along strike and down dip)
    • 6m @ 4.5g/t Au from 22m, incl. 2m @ 9.1g/t Au from 26m
  • Target zone concealed by extensive shallow cover sediments

Planned Drilling in 2022

Widespread Shallow Cover Sediments

Geophysics provides ability to see through cover – large new targets defined

Project Pipeline – Regional Structures

Excellent regional prospectivity

  • Vast majority of the 30km-long target structure not effectively tested due to the extensive shallow sand cover
  • Regional BLEG soils (1990 and 1996) identified outcropping / sub-cropping gold mineralisation with scout drilling intersecting broad zones of gold mineralisation
  • No follow-up since scout drilling was completed in the 1990s

FORWARD PROGRAMME FOR THE REGIONAL PIPELINE TARGETS

IP geophysics to map resistivity lows (alteration/structures)

Regional drilling 2022
