Resolute Announces Maiden Mineral Resource at Tomboronkoto

Resolute Mining Limited ("Resolute" or "the Company") (ASX/LSE: RSG) is pleased to provide an update on our Senegal exploration prospects, including a maiden Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate at the Tomboronkoto ("Tombo") project.

Resolute has been focusing on three potential satellite deposits that could result in an extension to the Mako mine. These are Tomboronkoto and the prospects at Bantaco and Laminia where Joint Venture agreements have been concluded.

Highlights

Tomboronkoto

• Maiden Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the Tomboronkoto prospect of 3.4Mt grading 2.2g/t Au for 264 koz at 1g/t cut-off or 10.2Mt grading 1.2 g/t Au for 403 koz at 0.5 g/t cut-off
• Tomboronkoto is located 20km by road from the Mako Processing Plant
• The MRE is based on shallow drilling completed to date with the majority of the current resource located in the top 100m and remains open along strike to the west and down dip
• Preliminary metallurgical test-work on samples from Tomboronkoto show the mineralisation is free milling with recoveries exceeding 90% from fresh and weathered gold mineralised materials
• The focus over the remainder of 2024 will be on both infill drilling to convert Inferred resources to the Indicated category and further drilling to expand the resource

Bantaco

• Resolute has signed a Joint Venture ("JV") with SNEPAC, a local Senegalese company, to earn into the Bantaco project located 20km east of Mako
• Bantaco also provides an excellent opportunity to discover an open cut gold resource within trucking distance of Mako

Laminia

• Resolute has signed a Joint Venture on the Laminia Project which is located east and contiguous with the Bantaco JV area
• The Laminia Project covers the southern extensions of the Massawa Shear zone which controls the gold mineralisation hosted in the Massawa Deposits held by Endeavour Mining Corporation

Terry Holohan, CEO commented: "We are very pleased to report the progress we are making in Senegal to extend the life of our Mako operation with now three projects close to our mine and within the same Greenstone Belt following the recent successful conclusion of the two JVs. We will be stepping up our overall exploration efforts in 2024 on these exciting projects which have well known areas of outcropping mineralisation, and we expect further progress updates throughout the year. The completion of the maiden Inferred Mineral Resource at Tomboronkoto within 6 months is a significant achievement and reflects the efforts and ability of our exploration and operations teams on the ground."

Tomboronkoto

Location

Tomboronkoto is located 16km east of the Mako Processing Plant – see Figure 1. It is approximately 20km by road and, therefore pending cost analysis, we are confident of the opportunity for hauling material to the existing Plant.

Figure 1: Senegal Geology and Project Locations.

Drilling Program

Resolute commenced its first Reverse Circulation drilling campaign at Tomboronkoto in mid-2023. A total of 54 holes for 8,900 metres was completed with the program ending in October 2023.

This was the first program completed by Resolute on the prospect and was focused on better defining the gold mineralisation zone identified by previous explorers including Randgold Resources.

The drilling program achieved the goals as set out with assay results confirming the target zone with broad intersections of medium to high-grade gold mineralisation in most holes drilled during the program. Significant intersections are listed in Appendix 1.

Figure 2. Tomboronkoto Geological Interpretation and Drillhole Locations

Mineralisation is currently interpreted to be within a shear in the granodiorite unit. Intensity of gold mineralisation appears to correlate with the intensity of pyrite development and exhibits good lateral and vertical continuity through the mineralised zone.

Mineralisation has a relatively simple geometry comprising a zone that varies from 30 to 60m in width, along the 1,700m strike length drilled to date. The zone dips approximately 70⁰ to the south-southeast - a cross section representative of the typical mineralisation shape is shown on Figure 3.

Mineral Resource Estimate

The Tomboronkoto MRE was developed in December 2023 using wireframe constrained Ordinary Kriged ("OK") estimation methodology, within two nested Leapfrog Indicator wireframes at 0.2 g/t Au and 0.75g/t Au.

A Global Mineral Resource Estimate of 10.4Mt grading 1.2g/t Au for 403,000oz was estimated at a cutoff of 0.5g/t (in-line with the current cut-off grade used to define Mako's Mineral Resources). At a higher 1g/t cut off the grade increases to 2.2g/t with a total of 264,000oz Au. Further cost analysis is required to determine the appropriate cut-off grade for Tomboronkoto.

Tomboronkoto Mineral Resource (0.5g/t Au cut-off)
Classification	Tonnes	Grade (g/t Au)	Ounces (Au)
Inferred	10,204,000	1.2	403,000
Total	10,204,000	1.2	403,000

Table 1: Tomboronkoto Mineral Resources at December 2023 (0.5g/t cut off)

Tomboronkoto Mineral Resource (1g/t Au cut-off)
Classification	Tonnes	Grade (g/t Au)	Ounces (Au)
Inferred	3,685,000	2.2	264,000
Total	3,685,000	2.2	264,000

Table 2: Tomboronkoto Mineral Resources at December 2023 (1g/t cut off)

So far most of the Tomboronkoto deposit is only drilled to 100m below surface and is open along strike and down dip. Further drilling is expected to expand the Mineral Resource.

Preliminary metallurgical test work was undertaken by Resolute on Reverse Circulation ("RC") samples from the recent drilling campaign conducted at Tomboronkoto.

The sample selection encompassed different ore types of the ore body across various depths from the surface. Leach tests were conducted under conditions that closely mimic the current Mako Plant CIL circuit parameters. The results from the leach test work demonstrate that the Tomboronkoto ore body is free milling, with recoveries exceeding 90% from fresh and weathered gold mineralised material.

Future Exploration

Future exploration at Tomboronkoto in 2024 will be focused on both infill drilling to convert Inferred Mineral Resource to Indicated category and further drilling to expand the resource. The deposit remains open at depth and along strike to the west.

Drilling at Tomboronkoto will focus on open pit extractable Mineral Resources and will generally be restricted to mineralisation within 200m of the surface. The 2024 exploration program at Tomboronkoto comprises a drilling program of 20,000m of RC drilling and 3,000m of diamond drilling with a budget cost of US$4 million. This work is aimed at increasing the Mineral Resources.

Bantaco Joint Venture

Resolute recently signed a Joint Venture with SNEPAC, a local Senegalese company, to earn into the Bantaco prospect located east of Mako - see Figure 1 for location.

The Bantaco project presents an opportunity in the short term to find an economically exploitable gold resource to extend the life of Mako.

The project area has extensive artisanal workings in two main locations, Baisso in the southwest and Bantaco in the northeast of the permit.

Exploration activity is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2024. The approved exploration budget for Bantaco for 2024 is US$1.4 million which will include a 10,000m RC drilling program, over areas of known outcropping mineralisation.

Figure 4: Bantaco Location and soil geochemistry

Laminia Joint Venture

Resolute has signed a Joint Venture on the Laminia Project which is located east and contiguous with the Bantaco JV area – see figure 1. The Laminia Project covers the southern extensions of the Massawa Shear zone which controls the gold mineralisation hosted in the Massawa Deposits held by Endeavour Mining Corporation.

Auger drilling in the northwestern part of the permit covering the southern extensions of the Massawa shear zone, delineated a 3km gold anomaly open to the South. Subsequent RC drilling encountered encouraging results.

The eastern part of the permit covers the southern extension of the Makosa (Thor Exploration) and Makabingui (Bishop Resources) shears. Gold in soil results highlighted two long anomalies along the shears which will be tested by auger drilling.

Summary of Tomboronkoto Resource Parameters

A summary of JORC Table 1 is provided below for compliance regarding the Mineral Resources reported within and in-line with requirements of ASX Listing Rule 5.8.1.

Geology and geological interpretation

Mineralisation is currently interpreted to be within a shear in the granodiorite unit. Intensity of gold mineralisation appears to correlate with the intensity of pyrite development and exhibits good lateral and vertical continuity through the mineralised zone.

Mineralisation has a relatively simple geometry comprising a zone that varies from 30 to 60m in width, along the 1,700m strike length drilled to date. The zone dips approximately 70⁰ to the south-southeast.

Sampling and sub-sampling techniques

Reverse circulation samples were collected on 1m intervals by riffle split (dry) or by scoop (wet) to obtain a 1-3kg sample.

Sample preparation includes oven drying, crushing to 10mm, splitting and pulverising to 85% passing - 75µm. These preparation techniques are deemed to be appropriate to the material being sampled.

Reverse circulation and core field duplicates were collected by the company at a rate of 1:20 samples.

Sampling, sample preparation and quality control protocols are of industry standard, and all attempts were made to ensure an unbiased representative sample was collected.

Drilling techniques

Drill types used include reverse circulation with face sampling bit and historic core drilling using PQ and HQ sized bits. All Resolute drilling to date has been RC. Historic core drilling has been incorporated into the resource.

Classification criteria

Mineral Resources were classified in accordance with the Australasian Code for the Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC, 2012).

The deposit has been classified as Inferred Mineral Resource based on a combination of quantitative and qualitative criteria which include geologic continuity, confidence in volume models, data quality, sample spacing, lode continuity, and estimation parameters (number of informing composites, estimation pass number, kriging quality parameters, and minimum and average distance composites).

With a lack of confirmatory diamond drilling conducted by Resolute, relatively wide drill-spacing, and only 139 specific gravity readings all mineralisation has been classified as Inferred even where geologic and estimation parameters may support a higher classification.

The input data is comprehensive in its coverage and does not favour or misrepresent the in-situ mineralisation. The definition of the mineralised zones is based on a high level of geologic understanding from good quality sample data, producing models of continuous mineralisation. Validation of the block model shows good correlation of the input data to the block estimated grades.

Sample analysis method

All samples were dispatched to ALS Kedougou for sample preparation and to ALS Ouagadougou for gold analysis by 30g fire assay fusion with AAS instrument finish (method code Au-AA25). Over-range results were re-analysed and reported by 30g fire assay fusion with gravimetric finish (method code Au-GRA21). The analytical method was appropriate for the style of mineralisation.

No geophysical tools were used to determine elemental concentrations.

Quality control (QC) procedures included the use of certified standards (1:40), non-certified sand blanks (1:40) and reverse circulation/core field duplicates (1:20).

Laboratory quality control data, including laboratory standards, blanks, duplicates, repeats, grind size results and sample weights were also captured into the digital database.

Analysis of the QC sample assay results indicates that an acceptable level of accuracy and precision has been achieved.

Basis for selected cut-off grade

The cut-off grades selected has been selected using previous Resource (0.5 g/t Au) and Reserve (1.0 g/t Au) cut-off grades used at the nearby Mako deposit.

Mining and metallurgical methods and other material modifying factors

Extensive metallurgical investigations and reporting have been completed prior to the commencement of mining and milling at the nearby Mako deposit.

The processing method involves crushing, and milling, followed by conventional CIL recovery.

There is no evidence to suggest that the metallurgical characteristics of ore extracted from Tomboronkoto would change from that encountered at Mako. Preliminary metallurgical test-work on samples from Tomboronkoto show similar characteristics to the Mako ore and is expected to be treated though the existing circuits.

Past exploration has been performed by Ashanti Gold andRandgold Resources on a previously held Research Permitwhich was relinquished prior to being held by Ardimines SARL.Randgold had undertaken soil geochemistry, surface mappingand drilling on the entire Research Permit. Regional augerdrilling identified gold anomalism which Ashanti Gold followed upwith Diamond and Reverse Circulation drilling and trenching onthe Tomboronkoto prospect. Subsequently Randgold undertookfurther DD drilling and trenching.
Geology	•Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.	Mineralisation is currently interpreted to be within a shear in thegranodiorite unit. Intensity of gold mineralisation appears to correlatewith the intensity of pyrite development and exhibits good lateral andvertical continuity through the mineralised zone.

Data has been compiled into a relational SQL database; thesetup of this database precludes the loading of data which donot meet the required validation protocols. The data is managedusing DataShed© drill hole management software using SQLdatabase techniques. Validation checks are conducted usingSQL and DataShed© relational database standards. Data hasalso been checked against original hard copies for 100% of thedata, and where possible, loaded from original data sources.

The influence of extreme gold assays has been limited by topcutting assays across all domains. Top-cuts have been determined using a combination of log probability, log histogram, and mean variance plots. Top-cuts have been reviewed and applied to the composites on a domain-by-domain basis.

Variography has been undertaken on a domain-by-domain basis in Datamine Supervisor v.8.14.3.3 using top-cut values.

Drillhole data spacing ranges from 25m x 25m in densely drilled areas to approximately 50m x 50m.

The block model parent block size is 25m (X) by 25m (Y) by 5m (Z) with up to 16 sub-blocks per parent block in the X and Y directions, and up to 8 sub-blocks per parent block in the Z direction. Sub-blocks have been estimated at the parent block scale. Block size is considered appropriate for the drillhole spacing throughout the deposit.

Grade estimation has been completed in three passes:

• ➢ Pass 1 estimation has been undertaken using a minimum of 4 and maximum of 25 sample composites (determined using Datamine Supervisor v.8.14 KNA tool) into a search ellipsoid with dimensions equal to half the variogram range of the domain.
• ➢ Pass 2 estimation has been undertaken with the same minimum/maximum samples as Pass 1 into a search ellipsoid twice the first pass.
• ➢ Pass 3 estimation has been undertaken with a minimum of 2 samples, and the same maximum number of samples as the first two passes into a search ellipsoid twice the second pass
• ➢ A maximum of three samples per drillhole has been used in the first two passes, with no limits set on the third pass..

This is the first mineral resource estimate released for the Tomboronkoto deposit.

The mineral resource estimate has been validated using visual validation tools, mean grade comparisons between the block model and declustered composite grade means, and swath plots comparing the input composite grades and the estimated block model grades by Northing, Easting, and RL.

Leapfrog Geo v2023.2.0 and Datamine Supervisor v8.14.3.3 software have been used for estimation.

No by-product recoveries were considered.

CRITERIA	JORC CODE EXPLANATION	COMMENTARY
Mining factors orassumptions	•Assumptions made regarding possible mining methods, minimum mining dimensions and internal (or, if applicable, external) mining dilution.	The shallow occurrence of the mineralisation indicates that openpit mining is appropriate, in line with other deposits in the area.
	It is always necessary as part of the process of determiningreasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction to consider potential mining methods, but the assumptions made regarding mining methods and parameters when estimating Mineral Resources may not always be rigorous. Where this is thecase, this should be reported with an explanation of the basisof the mining assumptions made.	The estimation methodology used results in an amount of edgedilution being incorporated into the blocks of the model. Noaccount of mining loss has been incorporated.
Metallurgical factorsor assumptions	•The basis for assumptions or predictions regarding metallurgical amenability. It is always necessary as part of the processof determining reasonable prospects for eventual economicextraction to consider potential metallurgical methods, but theassumptions regarding metallurgical treatment processes andparameters made when reporting Mineral Resources may notalways be rigorous. Where this is the case, this should be reported with an explanation of the basis of the metallurgical assumptions made.	No specific assumptions were made regarding metallurgicalfactors for this estimate.Metallurgy is assumed to be similar to the nearby Mako deposit.
Environmentalfactors orassumptions	•Assumptions made regarding possible waste and process residue disposal options. It is always necessary as part of theprocess of determining reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction to consider the potential environmental impacts of the mining and processing operation. While at thisstage the determination of potential environmental impacts,particularly for a green fields project, may not always be welladvanced, the status of early consideration of these potentialenvironmental impacts should be reported. Where these aspects have not been considered this should be reported withan explanation of the environmental assumptions made.	No assumptions were made regarding environmentalrestrictions.

If determined, the method used, whether wet ordry, the frequency of the measurements, the nature, size andrepresentativeness of the samples.•The bulk density for bulk material must have been measuredby methods that adequately account for void spaces (vugs,porosity, etc), moisture and differences between rock and alteration zones within the deposit.•Discuss assumptions for bulk density estimates used in theevaluation process of the different materials.	Specific gravity values for the Tomboronkoto Prospect havebeen measured based on the Archimedean Principle using theimmersion method for individual core samples. A total of 215density measurements were available for use, with the vastmajority of these being in fresh rock below the saprock andlaterite domains. This data has been used as the basis of theblock model bulk density.No relationship between density and sulphur content or goldcontent could be established.A default bulk density of 1.76t/m3 was assigned to oxide rocks.A default bulk density of 2.16t/m3 was assigned to transitionalrock.A default bulk density of 2.72t/m3 was assigned to fresh rock.
Classification	•The basis for the classification of the Mineral Resources intovarying confidence categories.•Whether appropriate account has been taken of all relevantfactors (i.e. relative confidence in tonnage/grade estimations,reliability of input data, confidence in continuity of geologyand metal values, quality, quantity and distribution of the data).•Whether the result appropriately reflects the Competent Person's view of the deposit.	The classification is based on the confidence in the continuity ofgeology and mineralisation and quality/confidence in theestimation and quality of assay data and bulk density data.Sectional wireframe interpretations encompass material ofMeasured and Indicated classification.

Discussion ofrelative accuracy/confidence	•Where appropriate a statement of the relative accuracy andconfidence level in the Mineral Resource estimate using anapproach or procedure deemed appropriate by the CompetentPerson. For example, the application of statistical or geostatistical procedures to quantify the relative accuracy of the resource within stated confidence limits, or, if such an approachis not deemed appropriate, a qualitative discussion of the factors that could affect the relative accuracy and confidence ofthe estimate.•The statement should specify whether it relates to global or local estimates, and, if local, state the relevant tonnages, whichshould be relevant to technical and economic evaluation. Documentation should include assumptions made and the procedures used.•These statements of relative accuracy and confidence of theestimate should be compared with production data, whereavailable.	Although the estimate for gold is considered to be without bias, itis for the some of the estimated volume based on relatively widespaced data. The estimate is therefore of moderate confidenceand expected to be of moderate relative accuracy at the localscale when drilling density exceeds 25m x 25m. Infill gradecontrol drilling will be required to improve the confidence of thelocal estimate.
