Strike of Main Zone Extended South by 80m with 14.9m @ 3.84 g/t Au within the Open Pit Footprint

HIGHLIGHTS

  • 14.9m @ 3.84 g/t Au from 143.1mdh , including 0.98m @ 30.6 g/t Au from 147.9mdh , intersected in SDH25-026.

  • Main Zone strike extended south by 80m , beyond the current ~400m strike length defined in the MRE.

  • Resource definition drilling commenced in December 2025 to test the southern extension of the ~400m strike Main Zone, which hosts the highest-grade domains in the current MRE block model and is interpreted to plunge south parallel to the Hong Kong Lode.

  • Visible gold identified 40m immediately along strike and down plunge of SDH25-026.

  • Geological reinterpretation indicates up to 500m of additional southern strike potential , of which the majority remains largely untested. More than 200m of this interpreted strike extension lies within the current pit optimisation shell.

  • A budget has been approved for a 7,800m Phase 1 drilling program (18 holes) targeting the southern strike extension of the Main Zone and the recently identified eastern sheeted vein zone; seven holes completed to date, with assays expected in early Q2 2026.

Executive Chair, Ashley Pattison stated:

“Extending the Main Zone a further 80 metres south of the current 400 metre resource strike has important implications for the overall scale of mineralisation at Spring Hill. It reinforces our view that this is a growing system within what is already the highest-grade area of the resource.

Importantly, this intercept sits within our existing pit optimisation shell and was previously modelled as waste due to a lack of drilling. From a mining perspective, bringing additional mineralisation into the current pit shell has the potential to directly enhance open pit inventory and project economics.

Our work indicates the Main Zone may extend up to a further 500 metres to the south, broadly parallel to the Hong Kong Lode. The proximity of these two lodes presents a compelling opportunity for increasing the scale of operations and improving mining efficiencies over time.”

PC Gold Ltd (ASX: PC2) (“PC Gold” or “the Company”) is pleased to advise that extensional drilling to the south of the existing MRE boundary has discovered two new zones of mineralisation, with the first hole returning a wide zone of high-grade gold outside of the recently completed resource drilling on the Hong Kong and Macau lodes.

SDH25-026 targeted the southern extension of the Main Zone, located east of the Hong Kong Mineralised domain, and returned an interval of 14.9m @ 3.84 g/t Au from 143.1m, including 0.98m @ 30.6 g/t Au from 147.9m (See Figures 1 & 2).

This intercept is located approximately 100m along strike from the last drill hole forming the MRE on the Main Zone with the Phase 1 target zone illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 below.

Cautonary Statement:

Visual estimates of mineral abundance should never be considered a proxy or substitute for laboratory analyses where concentrations or grades are the factor of principal economic interest. Visual estimates also potentially provide no information regarding impurities or deleterious physical properties relevant to valuations. The Company expects to receive the laboratory analytical results of the recent core samples (including MS010 & MS011) in early Q2 2026

The southern extension drilling is ongoing, with seven holes completed out of an eighteen-hole program. Importantly, visual gold has been identified in two drill holes located down plunge of SDH25-026 (See Figure 1, 3 & 4). MS-010 and MS-011 intercepted multiple intervals of coarse visible free gold associated with quartz-carbonate-chlorite breccias and sheeted veins with pyrite and arsenopyrite (See plates 3 & 4).

The visible gold identified confirms the plunging nature of the gold mineralisation in the southern Main Zone target. The drilling section containing MS-10 and MS-011 is a further 40m along strike from the high-grade intercept reported in SDH25-026 (Figure 3). Currently MS-006 is in progress, drilling directly beneath SDH25-026. MS-001 and MS-004 have been drilled but not logged, as geotechnical drill holes were prioritised as a key component of the ongoing Pre-Feasibility Study. The geotechnical program is now complete and logging and cutting of the remainder of the Main Zone Southern Extension program will continue.

The Main Zone Southern extension target has had limited drill testing to date despite being the highest-grade mineralisation in the current MRE. Following re-interpretation of the stratigraphy at Spring Hill by the new PC Gold technical team, the analysis identified what appears to be a spatial correlation between two stratigraphic units and the plunge of the Main Zone. One wildcat drillhole was completed across the strike extent, being SDH25-026.

Additionally, it is thought that the relatively steeply plunging nature of the mineralisation meant that two drill holes completed in 2022 drilled over the top of the high-grade plunging target.

In the current program, SDH25-026 was drilled on the same drill pad as 22HK005 but at a steeper angle and has successfully intersected the reported high-grade interval of 14.91m @ 3.84 g/t Au in the correct lithological unit. These latest drill results validate the updated geological interpretation of the West Lodes and provide confidence in the remainder of the drill program at the West Lodes southern extension.

The Main Zone is comprised of three steeply dipping zones of sheeted veins and large individual quartz reefs located in the hinge zone of the main Spring Hill Anticline. Typical widths range from 10-20m wide each and commonly widen where the steeply dipping zone intersects with the interpreted anticline. The high-grade material appears to plunge to the south at a similar rate to the Hong Kong zone with highest grades confined within a package of dominant siltstones and mudstones and a lower package of dominant greywacke with minor interbedded siltstone and tuff.

U38/460 Stirling Hwy, Peppermint Grove WA 6011 Australia e. [email protected] t. 08 6313 3996

==> picture [79 x 81] intentionally omitted <==

The mineralisation style is characterised by a well-developed quartz vein system, including sheeted and massive veins, locally brecciated and laminated. Alteration is dominated by carbonate and chlorite with occasional biotite alteration in greywacke. Mineralisation consists of abundant pyrite and arsenopyrite, occurring as coarse disseminations, veinlets and blebs and within sheeted and massive quartz veins. Occurrences of visible gold are noted, particularly in thick sheeted and massive quartz veins, commonly spatially associated with arsenopyrite. Quartz breccias locally grade into massive veins 1- 5m thick and host free gold. The host sequence is interpreted as lower greywacke with interbedding of siltstone and tuff bands.

Strategic Rationale for Targeting

The Main Zone domains have an average grade of 1.2 g/t Au and 1.1 g/t Au respectively in the current MRE. These domains have the highest average grade domains in the block model with volumetric significance. Targeting shallower, high-grade material has a significant impact on the project because the material is mined early in the mine plan when capital expenditure is commonly highest and Net Present Value (NPV) of cash flows are less discounted.

The drill program designed at the Main Zone southern extension mainly sits within the existing pit optimisation shell but is currently classified as waste. Any mineralisation identified in the shallower portions of these drill holes should be mined as part of the current open pit mine plan and also lead to a reduction in the strip ratio and an increase in contained gold in the open pit mine plan.

The revised interpretation is that the Main Zone plunges to the south at the same rate and extent as the Hong Kong sheeted vein system. Any mineralisation that is economic and mined will be sitting on the same elevation only 100-150m away from Hong Kong. Whilst beneficial for increasing total Resources, we will be targeting additions to the Main Zone also as potential UG targets that may significantly increase ounces per vertical meter, creating substantial cost efficiencies when UG mining commences at the southern end of the MRE in the longer term.

Next Steps

  • Drilling of the Phase 1 program is ongoing with 7 drillholes completed out of a Phase 1 drill program of 18 holes for a total of 7,800m. One diamond rig to remain drilling this target.

  • All resource definition holes in the Hong Kong and Macau zones have been cut and dispatched for assay. The Main zone south drill holes will be prioritised for cutting and dispatch to the lab for assay. Assay results for this program are expected to commence receipt in early Q2.

  • Ongoing geological interpretation and wireframing to optimise Phase 2 deeper drilling.

Material to the Public Report.

Diamond drill core of HQ-3 size (61.1mm diameter) was collected
from both the reported intervals as part of the Lasagne Zone
evaluation drilling at Spring Hill. The core is oriented based on the
driller’s mark from the down-hole orientation tool, and the bottom
of core line marked along with the down-hole direction, recoveries
measured, and logged in detail for lithology, mineralisation, and
structure. The sample intervals are marked with sample numbers
and photographed. Core is processed in an automated core cutting
facility on site at Spring Hill. Cut sheets are provided to the core
cutting operator listing the required sample intervals, and their
corresponding numbers and instructions for CRMs, blanks, and
duplicates, if any.

Diamond core will be sawn in half, and one half of the core was
used for assaying. The remaining half is retained in the core trays.
Samples are taken generally on 1 m intervals, since the sheeted
vein systems at Spring Hill contain numerous millimetre- to
decimetre- thickness veins on which sampling of individual veins is
impractical. Shorter sample intervals are taken at defined contacts
of lithological units where relevant. Following cutting, the half
core intervals are placed in pre-numbered calico bags The half
core is dried and crushed at the Intertek sample preparation
facility in Darwin, using jaw crushers, with the entire sample
crushed to nominal -2 mm. The crushed product is then split, and
500g placed into a jar to be freighted to Intertek Perth for Photon
assay, which has a lower detection limit of 0.02grams per tonne
Au.

details (e.g. 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).
Drill Type and details used at Spring Hill (2025 and 2026)

Drilling at Spring Hill in 2025 and 2026 has been a combination of
reverse circulation drilling (RC) and diamond core drilling, all of
which has been HQ-3, using the services of two core drilling
contractors and one RC contractor.

RC drilling was completed using a 5 ¾ inch drop centre hammer.

Some Diamond drill holes for resource purposes will be drilled from
RC pre-collars, followed by HQ3 coring.
Wherever possible oriented core was collected, using state of the art
downhole devices. Single shot surveys were run at generally 30 m
intervals, presently a down-hole north- seeking gyro is being used to
monitor hole direction and adjust drillparameters accordingly.

For RC drilling sample recovery and condition are visually assessed
and recorded in the drill log.

For diamond drilling drilled metres and recovered metres are
recorded by the drill crew but later checked by company personnel.
Any discrepancies noted were followed up with the drillers. Zones
of core loss are recorded in the geological log and are assumed to
have no gold. In general core recoveries for mineralised intervals
are close to 100%.

Preferential sample loss effecting grade has not generally been
obvious with either RC or DD drilling at Spring Hill.

mounted cyclone and riffle splitter.

Quality control procedures for RC drilling included the insertion of
certified reference materials and blanks at a rate of 1 every 30
samples. Field duplicates were collected straight from the rig
cyclone at a rate of 1 every 40 samples.

Sampling of diamond core is generally on 1m intervals and is
selective based of observed indicators of mineralisation. Diamond
core is sawn in half with one half sent off for analysis.

Quality control procedures for diamond drilling included the
insertion of certified reference materials and blanks at a rate of 1
every 20 or 40 samples.

Given the coarse nature of gold at Spring Hill, “duplicate” quarter
core assays would be statistically meaningless, and reliance has
been placed on obtaining large sample sizes for representativity.
Since 2025, all drill samples have been assayed for Au using 500g
aliquots and Photon assays, which is current state of the art for
coarse grained gold mineralisation of the type encountered at
Spring Hill.

The coordinate reference system used for the project area is
GDA94 / MGA zone 52. The GDA coordinate system has been used
for interpretation of the resource model.

Drill hole locations were set out using a handheld GPS. After
completion of the drillholes all collars were surveyed using a
differential GPS (DGPS), generally to an accuracy of ±0.1 m in X, Y,
and Z directions. All historic holes that have been locatable have
also been picked up using DGPS instruments.

Accurate drill rig alignment was achieved using both visual compass
orientations and a gyro alignment system. During and after
completion of the drillhole, all holes were down-hole surveyed
using a north-seeking gyro tool, or in earlier a magnetic single shot
camera at 12 m or 30 m intervals.

A Spring Hill surface DTM was provided by Spring Hill for validation
with RLs of the collar pick-ups and agree closely to the DTM. Where
there are minor discrepancies, this is the result of more recent
earth works. A recent Lidar survey is being processed and will be
used to update the DTM.

Gold was first worked at Spring Hill in 1880, during the first
phase of serious gold mining activity that followed on from
the discovery of coarse gold near Yam Creek in 1870 during
the construction of the Overland Telegraph Line. At Spring
Hill, numerous alluvial, eluvial and hard rock workings were
in operation, mainly by Chinese miners. The extensive
surface workings suggest that significant amounts of gold
were extracted. About 20,000 oz of gold production was
recorded between 1880 and 1905, and the area was worked
intermittently until 1966. The major hard rock workings
were on the Main (or Western) Lode where oxidised ore
was mined in a shaft to a depth of up to 109 m, but there
was also widespread eluvial and alluvial work on the steep
slopes and narrow, high-energy gullies that drain the range.

From 1933 to 1938, the Spring Hill Gold Mining Company
drove an adit from the east side of Spring Hill with the portal
120 m below the surface exposure of the Main Lode. In
1949, Northern Territory Prospecting and Development Co.
extended the adit to 427 m, reached the Main Lode, and
carried out a little development work. Another company,
Spring Hill Gold NL later carried out some stoping on the
East Lode, but production was limited by a lack of water to
process ore through the battery near the adit portal. Total
gold produced from the Main Adit East Lode stopes was
20.2 kg gold at an average ore grade of 18.6 g/t Au.

From 1985 to September 1988 Territory Resources NL held
the key leases over the major mined areas. The Main Adit
was reopened, mapped and sampled where possible.

Ross Mining NL acquired the project from Territory
Resources in 1988,and soon after formed an exploration

joint venture with Billiton Australia (at the time, the metals
division of The Shell Company of Australia Limited), who
carried out a major programme of work as operators from
November 1988 until it withdrew from the Spring Hill Joint
Venture in March 1992.

In 1989-91, Billiton installed a 25m line spaced grid over the
tenements that was used for geological mapping, soil
sampling and a ground magnetic survey, followed by
costeans, reverse circulation and diamond drilling, as well
as some metallurgical testwork, petrology, a TEM survey,
structural mapping and mineralisation modelling. This
resulted in encouragement, with a 300 m extension to the
Hong Kong Vein System recognised on the west side of the
Property by 1990.

In the north part of the deposit, as far as 11900N, soil results
produced discrete geochemical anomalies over veining of
the Lasagne vein system, between 10400N and 11900N. The
Lasagne system is largely within Gerowie Tuff, with a variety
of vein styles including saddle reefs, bedding parallel, and
tension gash styles, dominantly on the west limb of the
main anticline. The tension gash style is parallel to the
orientation of the Hong Kong System. While veining is
strongly developed, the grades returned at Lasagne were
low, with the best result being 0.47 g/t Au. It was noted that
the veins are quartz- rich and have a lower sulphide content
than those that carry gold further south in the vein systems
in Mount Bonnie Formation.

The 1989-91 drilling program proceeded in five phases:
o
In June 1989, 25 RC holes were drilled for 2,428 m at
targets from earlier grid soil BLEG sampling. In October
1989, an additional 26 RC holes for 2,600 m were
drilled, focusing on optioned leases to assist with
exercise decisions, as well as infill at “Strawberry
Pastry” (later renamed Macau?), Hong Kong, and a
southern extension of Hong Kong at the time called
“Toothpaste”.
o
Diamond drilling in 1990 of 608 m in holes SHDH001 to
SHDH007 at Hong Kong and the main anticline. The
best intersection was in SHDH001 at Hong Kong, where
30 m at 1.82 g/t Au was intersected between 67 m and
96 m.
o
Drilling of RC holes SHRC052 to SHRC067 hit individual
intersections of significance at Main Lode, Middle Lode
and Hong Kong, while four holes drilled at Lasagne
were unsuccessful.
o
In 1991, drilling of RC holes SHRC068 to SHRC078
(863 m), then later a second program drilled SHRC079
to SHRC087(688m).
o
Diamond drilling in 1991 consisted of four holes,
SHDH008 to SHDH010 (775 m), which were extensions
of SHRC077, SHRC072, and SHRC078 respectively; and
the 50 m vertical HQ hole, RM001, to obtain samples
for metallurgical test work from the main lens of the
Hong Kong sheeted vein system.

Billiton completed a column leachingtest on the

presumably oxidised crushed core from hole RM001, which
produced a recovery of 73% of Au over 83 days, with 50%
recovery in the first 6 days.

Billiton also reinterpreted the resource distribution and re-
estimated the resource based upon their exploration.

In May 1991, Billiton were able to purchase 100% of the
Union Reefs Project (MLN1109) and appear to have
withdrawn from their other joint ventures with Pegasus at
Mount Todd and with Ross Mining at Spring Hill after this
success at Union Reefs.

In March 1992, Ross Mining NL reached agreement to
purchase Shell’s 50% in Spring Hill and finalised the
agreement on 3rd August 1992. Ross Mining then
proceeded to explore the Spring Hill Project in their own
right. In the remainder of 1992, Ross Mining compiled the
Billiton data and produced an updated Mineral Resource
estimate on the Hong Kong Sheeted Vein Resource
(Indicated and Inferred resources of 3.4 Mt at 1.5 g/t Au for
158 k Oz Au, not constrained by pit optimisation shells).

Ross Mining conducted an active exploration program on
the Spring Hill titles during 1993 and 1994. The first phase
of this was detailed field checking, including mapping and
sampling of selected portions of the project area based on
the previous results to develop a detailed proposal for field
work, accompanied by drilling of 13 RC holes, SHRC089 to
SHRC101 for 1,287m in October 1993 to follow up early
findings (Melville, 1994).

This resulted in Ross elevating the exploration intensity at
Spring Hill in 1994, (Sheldon, Scrimgeour and Edwards,
1994). This work identified extensions to the Hong Kong
Vein System, and new mineralised zones at Steve’s Gully,
Vein Heaven, and Zbonsky Trend, confirmed with RC
drilling. Diamond drilling also extended the dimensions of
the mineralised envelope along strike and to depth. The
Hong Kong Zone was extended by 250 m to the north and
225 m to the south.

Following this program, the project moved to pre- feasibility
studies in 1995, including water quality monitoring,
environmental
monitoring,
metallurgical
testwork,
resource/ reserve estimations, scoping studies, and
rehabilitation.

In the mid- 1990s Ross Mining was acquired by Placer
Dome. All titles were surrendered on 12th March 2001.

During 2003, the subsequent owner of the Project, Tennant
Creek Gold (NT) Pty Ltd, commissioned McDonald Speijers
to undertake a first pass economic assessment of the
mineralisation and to create a preliminary pit design for the
Hong Kong, Main, Middle and East Zones.

In 2007 Western Desert Resources Limited (WDR) acquired
the project from Tennant Creek Gold (NT) Pty Ltd.

In mid-2011 WDR Gold entered into a joint venture
agreement with TM Gold Pty Ltd (a subsidiary of Thor
Mining PLC) for a 25% share in the project. TM Gold
subsequently purchased 100% of the project. Thor Mining
completed DD drilling,metallurgical testwork,a high-

Geology
Deposit type, geological setting,
and style of mineralisation.

The Spring Hill Project is in the Central Domain of the Pine
Creek Orogen (PCO), most recently described in detail by
Ahmad and Munson (2013). The stratigraphy at Spring Hill
falls within the South Alligator Group and Finniss River
Group of the Cosmo Supergroup, in greenschist facies
metamorphosed sediments, which are isoclinally folded
along north- west trending axes in an embayment with
lobes of the Cullen Batholith to the north- east and south-
west. The main anticline at Spring Hill plunges at a moderate
angle to the southeast.

Spring Hill also falls within the Pine Creek Shear Zone, a
north-west / south- east trending strike- slip fault system
that follows the same embayment between the Cullen
Batholith lobes and appears to have been reactivated
multiple times during and after granite emplacement. The
Pine Creek Shear Zone is most likely a major control on gold
mineralisation. The bulk of discovered mineralisation at
Spring Hill has been deposited in structures in the Mount
Bonnie Formation of the South Alligator Group.

Thes structural events controlling the distribution of gold
mineralisation in and near the Pine Creek Shear Zone
deposits most commonly follows a pattern of association
with fold structures, in particular anticlines, in ferruginous
quartz vein zones with a variety of structural controls.
Spring Hill is one of the group of deposits in and around the
Pine Creek Shear Zone that share similar characteristics.

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 (e.g. ‘down hole

Most of the drill holes contained within the drilling database
that are material to the June 2024 model (as reported in the
IPO Prospectus) were drilled at right angle to the
mineralisation at the Spring Hill deposit. The majority of
holes were drilled at -60° angle to the local grid easting
providing intersections normal to the mineralisation.
