Western Queen Drilling & Development Update

Key points

  • Exploration

    • Diamond drilling well underway

    • 929 metres completed to date

  • Potential mine development

    • Underground mining project demonstrates superior economics over the open pit project

    • Underground mining scoping study well advanced

  • Third party ore processing

    • Non-binding MoU signed with Gylden Resources in relation to processing ore through Kirkalocka

    • A draft toll treating agreement has been received from Gylden

Peter Harold, Managing Director and CEO commented:

  • “The drilling is off to a good start with two holes completed to date.

Our review of the open pit compared to the underground mine plan shows the underground project has superior economics and we are now progressing the underground as our preferred scenario.

We are also delighted to have signed a MoU with Gylden Resources in relation to potentially processing Western Queen ore through their Kirkalocka plant.”

Rumble Resources Limited ( ASX: RTR ) (“ Rumble ” or the “ Company ”) provides this update on the current exploration program and potential development of the Western Queen Gold Project.

Exploration – diamond drill program underway

The Company commenced a diamond drill program of up to 20,000m at Western Queen last week. The first of two rigs to be supplied by DDH1 Drilling (DDH1) has drilled 929 metres as at 20 October 2025. The second rig is due on-site in the next few weeks. The program is scheduled to be completed during February 2026.

The objectives of the current drill program are:

  1. Discover more Gold Resources - The key focus of the drill program is to target high-grade, down plunge extensions to the Western Queen South and Central deposits (refer Figure 1) to grow the Western Queen gold Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 3.72Mt @ 3.1g/t Au for a total of 370,000 oz Au[1] .

  2. Upgrade Inferred to Indicated Resources - A small portion of the program will infill the existing Western Queen South MRE which currently stands at 2.32Mt @ 2.66g/t Au for 198,900 oz[1] , with the aim of converting existing Inferred to Indicated Resources ahead of the commencement of mining operations, subject to permitting, executing an ore sales or ore toll milling agreement and all other necessary conditions required for a Financial Investment Decision.

  3. Discover more Tungsten Resources – Drilling to discover more high-grade tungsten lodes, which are spatially adjacent, and sub-parallel to, the high-grade gold lodes with the aim of growing the recently announced maiden Western Queen tungsten MRE of 4.31Mt @ 0.31% WO3 for 13.2Kt WO3[2] at a 0.1% WO3 cut-off which contains a higher-grade portion of 1.44Mt @ 0.51% WO3 for 7.4Kt WO3[2] at 0.3% WO3 cut off. The drill program will also further assist in developing the understanding of the controls and timing of the tungsten

mineralisation at Western Queen and provide critical information that can be applied to the targeting of the tungsten potential at a local and district scale.

  1. Geotechnical review - Two holes will be drilled to understand the geotechnical conditions in the area where the underground portal and decline is proposed.

  2. Gold recovery confirmation - Selected diamond holes will be used to provide samples for a metallurgical testwork program across both the Western Queen South and Central deposits to validate the previously achieved high gold recoveries of +93% from prior mining operations. The drill program should provide the basis for a revised Western Queen MRE in early 2026.

Mining Studies – underground the preferred option

  • Western Queen Open Pit Option – Review of Smaller Pit

The smaller pit option for the Western Queen South open pit has been reviewed by the Company. The underground mining project has superior economic outcomes based on an internal assessment and consequently the Company is now pursuing the underground as the preferred option.

  • Western Queen South and Central Underground Option – Scoping Study

The scoping study on mining both Western Queen South and Central from underground is well advanced and on track to be delivered during the December 2025 quarter.

Third party processing

Discussions have continued with the owners of gold processing plants in the vicinity of Western Queen. A nonbinding Memorandum of Understanding has been signed with Gylden Resources Pty Ltd (“Gylden”) in relation to the potential to treat Western Queen ore through their Kirkalocka plant (see Figure 3) and Gylden has provided a draft ore tolling agreement.
