Laverton Gold Project Update

DRILLING IDENTIFIES MULTIPLE NEW MINERALISED GOLD TRENDS

HIGHLIGHTS

  • The maiden 103 hole, 6,416m metre air-core drill programme completed at the Laverton Gold Project.

  • Four target areas tested, following up historically anomalous drill results and soil geochemical anomalism.

  • Widespread gold intersections returned from multiple areas including:

13m @ 0.30g/t Au from 45m to end-of-hole in 21LAC098;

5m @ 0.45g/t Au from 20m in 21LAC006;

5m @ 0.40g/t Au from 25m in 21LAC001;

5m @ 0.28g/t Au from 65m on 21LAC097;

5m @ 0.26g/t Au from 40m in 21LAC054;

5m @ 0.22g/t Au from 55m in 21LAC081; and

10m @ 0.10g/t Au from 60m in 21LAC099.

  • Area 2 gold mineralisation is associated with a Banded-Iron Formation (BIF) unit – the interpreted southern strike extension of the Gladiator Gold Deposits BIF unit.

  • Planning underway for follow-up reverse circulation drilling to test bedrock gold mineralisation at Area’s 1 and 2.

  • Single metre re-sampling of anomalous intersections underway.

  • Additional targeting work underway to identify new areas for drill testing.

Rincon CEO, Gary Harvey commented:

“We are pleased to have completed our maiden air-core drill programme at Laverton which has identified multiple zones of gold mineralisation which highlights the potential of the Laverton Gold Project. Results from target Area 2 are particularly encouraging as the gold mineralisation encountered is associated with BIF; a known prospective geological target for gold mineralisation in the Laverton region. We are planning to test these targets at greater depths into fresh rock”.

Rincon Resources Limited ( Rincon or the Company ) is pleased to provide an exploration update for its Laverton Gold Project located in the Laverton Gold District, Western Australia, 4km west of the Laverton townsite.

ASX Announcement 12 July 2021

Maiden Air-Core Drilling Programme

A 103 hole, 6,416m air-core (AC) drill programme (21LAC001-103) was completed at the Laverton Gold Project which aimed to define the extent of gold mineralisation, intersected in historical drilling, over four priority areas (Figure 1).

Several anomalous gold intercepts (+0.10g/t Au), together with anomalous silver +/- arsenic, were returned including*:

  • Area 1 – 5m @ 0.45g/t Au from 20m in 21LAC006; and

  • Area 1 – 5m @ 0.40g/t Au from 25m in 21LAC001.

  • Area 2 – 13m @ 0.30g/t Au from 45m to EOH in 21LAC098; and

  • Area 2 – 5m @ 0.28g/t Au from 65m on 21LAC097.

  • Area 2 – 5m @ 0.22g/t Au from 55m in 21LAC081; and

  • Area 2 – 10m @ 0.10g/t Au from 60m in 21LAC099.

  • Area 3 – 5m @ 0.26g/t Au from 40m in 21LAC054.

  • *All significant intersections are summarised in Table 1.

Area 1

Eight AC holes (21LAC001-008) were drilled to follow-up an historical Rotary Air-Blast (RAB) intercept of 7m @ 15.95g/t Au[1] from 21m. Mineralised zones were observed to consist of ferruginous quartz veinlets associated with a mafic-felsic contact (Figure 2).

Gold mineralisation at Area 1, inclusive of the historic drill intercept, has now been intersected over a strike length ~80m and remains open along strike and at depth.

In addtion to gold, anomalous silver (Ag) was retruned which is interpreted to be associated with the felsic rocks in the area.

Best results include:

  • 21LAC001 – 5m @ 0.40g/t Au from 25m and 15m @ 1.25g/t Ag from surface; and

  • 21LAC006 – 5m @ 0.45g/t Au from 20m.

Area 2

Thirty-three AC holes (21LAC071-103) were completed at Area 2, designed to follow-up a gold trend over 800m of strike defined by ≥ 0.10g/t Au (best-in-hole gold value) in historical RAB and AC drill holes. The anomalous gold trend is associated with the interpreted southern extension of the Banded-Iron Formation (BIF) sequence that is associated with the Gladiator Gold Deposits to the north of the Laverton Gold Project.

A thick, transported, paleo-channel system was observed to depths of +40m in most cases with the majority of holes requiring to be drilled through the transported cover before intersecting the oxidised bedrock transition zone. Hole 21LAC100 failed to drill through the transported cover and ineffectively tested the lower transitional zone (Figure 3).

Lithologies observed included BIF, felsic volcaniclastics, meta-sediments and mafic rocks. Several anomalous gold intercepts were returned, some encouragingly at End-Of-Hole (EOH). Weakly elevated arsenic (As) and Zinc (Zn) was generally associated with gold anomalism and delineate a geochemical association with sediment, particularly BIF.

Better results include:

  • 21LAC081 – 5m @ 0.22g/t Au from 55m;

  • 21LAC083 – 5m @ 0.10g/t Au from 35m;

  • 21LAC087 – 5m @ 0.13g/t from 450m;

  • 21LAC089 – 5m @ 0.10g/t Au from 35m;

  • 21LAC089 – 5m @ 0.10g/t Au from 35m;

Area 3

Thirty-three AC holes (21LAC038-070) were completed to test several historical RAB drillhole gold anomalies ≥ 0.1g/t Au (best-in-hole gold value) intersected over 250m of strike and associated with the interpreted southern extension of the BIF sequence that is associated with the Gladiator Deposits to the north of the project tenement boundary.

The drilling was planned to better define the historical RAB anomalism in hilly terrain (outcrop/subcrop) in the southern portion of the project.

Highly anomalous arsenic (As) (up to 0.1% As) was encountered in several holes, although generally not with elevated gold, and is assumed to be associated with several ferruginous BIF or metasediments units observed in the area.

Better results include:

  • 21LAC043 – 5m @ 0.16g/t Au from 40m

  • 21LAC048 – 5m @ 0.10g/t Au from 110m, and

  • 21LAC054 – 5m @ 0.10g/t Au from 5m; 5m @ 0.26g/t Au and 0.58g/t Ag from 40m.

ASX Announcement 12 July 2021

GG Anomaly

Twenty-six AC holes (21LAC009-037) were completed across two wide spaced lines at the GG anomaly. Drilling was designed to follow-up an historical RAB intercept of 4m @ 1.55g/t Au[2] from 21m coincident with the GG multi-element gold-in-soil geochemical anomaly.

The geology observed in the drilling consisted of felsic volcaniclastics, felsic intrusives and mafic to ultramafic rocks. Associated with gold mineralisation was low-level silver (Ag) and to a lesser extent, weakly elevated antimony (Sb), zinc (Zn) and arsenic (As).

Better results include:

  • 21LAC037 – 5m @ 0.13g/t Au from 50m.

  • 21LAC025 – 4m @ 0.09g/t Au and 3.6g/t Ag from 85m to EOH.

Next Steps

  • Single metre re-sampling of anomalous intersections is underway

  • Area’s 1 and 2 have identified for follow-up reverse circulation drilling to test bedrock gold anomalism. This is currently being planned and likely to be scheduled for the 4[th] quarter 2021.

  • Additional target generation work is currently underway aimed at identifying new areas of interest within the greater Laverton Project area.

ABOUT LAVERTON GOLD PROJECT

The Laverton Gold Project consists of two exploration licences covering approximately 42km[2] of prospective Banded Iron Formation (BIF), within the Mt Margaret-Murrin Greenstone belt (MMMG) in the heart of the Laverton Gold District. The project area is located 4km west of the Laverton townsite and has historically been the subject of sporadic, early-stage exploration activities.

The MMMG is a highly prospective greenstone belt in the Laverton Gold District that produced over 25M oz of gold. Gold mineralisation in the Laverton Gold District is often associated and hosted in shear zones with BIF in favourable structural settings. The Laverton Gold Project covers approximately 11km of combined strike of two prospective shear zones and under explored BIF.

The tenements cover the southern strike extension of the historic Gladiator Gold Deposits, as well as the parallel Sunshine-Corio Shear Zone where gold mineralisation has been identified in historical workings and previous exploration including drilling results of up to 7.00m @ 15.90g/t Au[3] .

The Sunshine-Corio Shear Zone and BIF in the project area have been relatively unexplored due to the presence of alluvial cover (+30 metres). Recent aeromagnetic data interpretation has highlighted a number of prospective targets where the BIF interacts with favourable northwest trending structures, which are known to be associated with gold mineralisation elsewhere in the MMMG.

Appendix 1

JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1 – Laverton Air-Core Drilling

Section 1 - Sampling Techniques and Data

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g., 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.
The sampling has been carried out using air-core drilling
(AC). A total of 103 holes (LLAC001-103) were drilled in
the reported program for a total of 6416m of AC at
depths ranging from of 2 to 120m. Holes were drilled at-
60 degrees at approximately to 270OSample quality
was high with only minimal sample loss around the
annulus. Some samples were damp to wet as noted but
overall dry sample was produced to the depths drilled
Include reference to measures taken
to ensure sample representation and
the appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
The drill holes were located by handheld GPS. Sampling
was carried out under Company protocols and QAQC
procedures as per current industry practice. 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
(e.g. ‘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 (e.g. submarine nodules)
may warrant disclosure of detailed
information.
AC holes were drilled with a 3.5-inch face-sampling bit, 1m
samples collected through a cyclone into buckets and
placed on the ground as 1m samples, generally in rows of
10. Samples are collected with a scoop to generate 5m
composite samples, or variable samples at EOH. The 2-3 kg
composite samples were dispatched Onsite Laboratories
in Bendigo. These samples were sorted and dried by the
assay laboratory, pulverised to form a 25gm charge for Fire
Assay/AAS. A suite of base metals (Ag, As, Sb, Cu, Co, Ni,
Pb, Zn, W, Bi, Ni & Te) were analysed via ICP to ppm levels.
Drilling techniques Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation,
open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger,
Bangka, sonic, etc) and 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).
Inclined air-core drilling was completed by Harmec
based in Perth.
Drill sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries and
results assessed.
The majority of samples were dry. Ground water was
encountered in some holes. Sample recoveries were
visually estimated, and any low recoveries recorded in
the drill logs. Sample quality was noted on the drill logs.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery
and ensure representative nature of the
samples.
Drill cyclone and sample buckets were cleaned between
rod changes and after each hole to minimize

Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative
in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc)
photography.
Logging of AC samples records lithology, mineralogy,
mineralisation, weathering, colour and other features of
the samples. All samples are wet-sieved and EOH samples
stored in chip trays. These trays were stored off site for
future reference. All sample piles were photographed and
stored on the company’s database.
The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections logged.
All holes were inspected by Company Geologists. Detailed
logging of some hoes is planned.
Subsampling
techniques and
sample preparation

If core, whether cut or sawn and whether
quarter, half or all core taken.
NA
If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled,
rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or
dry.
AC composite samples, 1m individual samples and EOH
samples were collected using a scoop. Samples are
recorded as dry, wet or damp. Results from the composite
samples are used to identify which singe meter samples will
be submitted to laboratory. Composite samples are not
used in resources calculations.
For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness of the sample preparation
technique.
Samples were prepared at the Onsite Laboratories in
Bendigo. Samples were dried, and the whole sample
pulverized to 90% passing 75um, and a reference sub-
sample of approximately. 200g retained. A nominal 25 g
was used for the analysis ( FA/AAS) with a separate split
used for base metal analysis. The procedure is industry
standard for this type of sample.
Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-
sampling stages to maximise representation of
samples.
AC samples are collected at 1 m intervals and composited
into 5 m samples using a scoop to sample individual metre
samples. Certified Reference Materials (CRM’s) and/or
blanks are analysed with each batch of samples. These
quality control results are reported along with the sample
values in the final report. Selected samples are also re-
analysed to confirm anomalous results.
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.
Compositing of samples involves collection of representative
scoop from within the single sample meter pile. Samples
weigh 2-3kg prior to pulverization.
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 given the particle sizes and the
practical requirement to maintain manageable sample
weights.
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.
Samples were analysed for Au to ppm levels via 25g fire
assay / AAS finish which gives total digestion and is
appropriate for high-level samples. Base metals were
analysed to ppm levels.
For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld
XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in
determining the analysis including instrument
make and model, reading times, calibrations
factors applied and their derivation, etc.
No geophysical tools were used in this program.
Nature of quality control procedures adopted
(e.g. standards, blanks, duplicates, external
laboratory checks) and whether acceptable
levels of accuracy (i.e. lack of bias) and
precision have been established.
For 5m composite AC sampling, Field Standards (Certified
Reference Materials) and Blanks are inserted regularly within
the sample sequence. At the Assay Laboratory additional
Repeats, Lab Standards, Checks and Blanks are analysed
concurrently with the field samples. Results of the field and
Lab QAQC samples were checked on assay receipt. All
assays met QAQC protocols, showing no levels of
contamination or sample bias. Analysis of field duplicate
assay data suggests expected levels of sampling precision,
with less than 10% pair difference.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
The verification of significant intersections by
either independent or alternative company
personnel.
Significant results were checked by the CEO and Consultant
Geologist.
The use of twinned holes. Twin holes were not employed during this part of the
program.
Documentation of primary data, data entry
procedures, data verification, data storage
(physical and electronic) protocols.
Data is entered electronically at the Perth office. Assay files
are received electronically from the Laboratory. All data is
stored in a Company database system and maintained by
the Database Manager.
Discuss any adjustment to assay data. No assay data was adjusted. The lab’s primary Au field is the
one used for analysis purposes. No averaging is employed.
Location of data
points
Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate
drill holes (collar and downhole surveys),
trenches, mine workings and other locations
AC locations were determined by hand-held GPS.
The drill rig mast is set up using a clinometer and rig is
orientated using handheld compass.

used in Mineral Resource estimation.
Specification of the grid system used. Grid projection is GDA94, Zone 51.
Quality and adequacy of topographic control. Relative Levels are allocated to the drill hole collars using
current Digital Terrain Model’s for the area. The accuracy of
the DTM is estimated to be better than 5m.
Data spacing and
distribution
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration
Results.
AC drilling was designed to intersect oxide mineralisation
within the known mineralized structures interpreted
mineralised shear zones within the tenement. One sample
was collected for every 5 metres (maximum) drilled and
submitted for assay.
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.
The drilling is part of a first pass wide spaced regional
exploration programme and is not suitable for Resource
estimation purposes.
Whether sample compositing has been
applied.
No compositing has been employed in the reported results.
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.
The orientation of the drill hole (azimuth) is approximately
perpendicular to the strike of the targeted mineralisation.
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.
The drill orientation is estimated to be approximately
perpendicular to the main mineralised trend. It is unclear at
present whether cross structures are mineralised, however it
is considered unlikely that any sampling bias has been
introduced.
Sample security The measures taken to ensure sample security. Composite samples were submitted in pre -numbered
plastic bags (five calico bags per single plastic bag), sealed
and transported to the Bureau Veritas Laboratory in
Kalgoorlie for assaying.
Audits or reviews The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data.
Sampling and assaying techniques are industry-standard.
No specific audits or reviews have been undertaken at this
stage in the program.

ASX Announcement 12 July 2021

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
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.
Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting
averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum
grade truncations (e.g. cutting of high grades)
and cut-off grades are usually Material and
should be stated.

Grades are reported as down-hole length-weighted averages
of grades. No top cuts have been applied to the reporting of
the assay results. A maximum of 1 composite sample of
internal dilution was used.
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.
All higher-grade intervals are included in the reported grade
intervals.
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 (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width
not known’).
Due to the wide spacing of the AC drilling, the geometry of
the mineralization is not fully known, but inferred to be broadly
NS striking and steeply dipping to sub-vertical. The geometry
of the mineralisation at depth is interpreted to vary from
steeply west dipping to sub-vertical. All assay results are
based on down-hole lengths, and true width of mineralisation
is not known.
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 Figure in the body of text.
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.
Refer to results reported in body of text and summary statistics
for the elements reported. All samples over 0.1g/t Au are
reported.
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.
Refer to body of text and this appendix.
Further work The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g.
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.


Further drill testing is planned, as described in this
announcement. Location of drilling is still to be determined.
