EARLY ENCOURAGEMENT FROM FIELD PROGRAMS AT RAVENSWOOD WEST

The first rock chip assays have been received for Sunshine Gold Limited’s (ASX:SHN, “Sunshine Gold”, “the Company”) Ravenswood West field program. Ravenswood West is currently being mapped and geochemically sampled with the aim of delineating gold drill targets at the Dreghorn and Keans Prospects. a Similar program is also under way at the Campbell Creek prospect, part of the Hodgkinson Project.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Over 600 soil samples and 58 rock chip samples collected to date across Ravenswood West and Hodgkinson.

  • Assays for 58 rock chip samples from Ravenswood West have been returned including:

  • 49.6 g/t Au, 3.8 g/t Au and 1.6 g/t Au at Queenslander target (Dreghorn)

  • 20.2 g/t Au, 13.4 g/t Au and 6.4 g/t Au to the east of Queenslander (Dreghorn)

  • 11.4 g/t Au and 1.5 g/t Au at Albion target (Dreghorn)

  • Up to 0.54 % Mo and 154 g/t Ag from Keans

  • Full reprocessing of open-file magnetics, radiometrics and gravity geophysical data has also been completed.

Sunshine Gold’s Managing Director, Damien Keys commented: “Our field crews have been active across two project areas - Ravenswood West and Hodgkinson. Encouraging early rock chip results from Ravenswood West demonstrate the potential for high-grade gold mineralisation and for porphyry Cu-Mo-Au-Ag. Field activities will continue across both projects ahead of drill rig mobilisation later in June 2021.”

Table 1. Rock chip samples grading over 1g/t Au from Queenslander and Albion targets at Dreghorn.

The mineralised rock chip samples coincide with zones of magnetic destruction, which are interpreted to be zones of faulting, veining and alteration within the host tonalite.

The historic Dreghorn gold field consists of >9km strike length with historical workings and gold in soil anomalism of >50ppb Au. The most recent drilling in 2000, returned 2m @ 5.23g/t Au from 28m (DRC005) at Albion and 2m @ 10.92g/t Au from 94m (DRC012) on an east-west structure >700m northwest of Albion. A significant portion of the area is under a thin veneer of cover (<2m) and will be subject to a 1,300 sample, soil program to geochemically assist in identifying these trends for drill targeting.

Figure 2. Soil sampling and location of effective drilling at the Dreghorn gold field

Keans Cu – Mo – Au – Ag Prospect

Keans is located ~7.5 km south-west of the Ravenswood Mining Centre. The area is prospective for gold, copper, molybdenum and silver and was historically mined for gold producing grades between 3g/t to 46g/t Au. Historical rock chips at Keans returned maximum values of 1.03% Mo, 25% Cu, 183 oz/t Ag and 8.7g/t Au across.

Only eight drill holes are known at Keans, all of which were drilled between 1959 – 1962. The most notable drill results were molybdenite-bearing, including 3.3m at 1.02% Mo (Hole R1) and 13.8m at 0.26% Mo (Hole R4). No follow up has ever been undertaken.

Mapping and sampling by Sunshine Gold has identified a high number of outcropping quartz veins with two primary strike orientations. The veins are variably mineralised with copper carbonate staining at surface and occasional chalcopyrite. Furthermore, material pulled from Shaft A at Keans showed common interstitial molybdenite.

A collection of seven rock chip samples were collected at Keans (largely from outcrop) with one sample returned from the molybdenite-bearing spoil. Assays were encouraging and are reported in Table 2.

Elphinstone Creek Rare Earths and Au Prospect

The Elphinstone Creek Prospect is located on a tributary to Elphinstone Creek. Stream sediment sampling completed in 2017, returned highly anomalous gold and rare earth element (“ REE ”) assays of up to 6.28g/t Au, 0.39% Ce, 0.17% La and 0.10% Nd. The anomalies were located in a minor tributary with the primary source of Au and REEs never being delineated. Sunshine Gold will conduct a detailed soil sampling and mapping program extending over a 2.5km radius to determine the source of the Au and REE anomalism.

Reprocessing of Open-File Geophysics

All open-file magnetics, radiometrics and gravity data available at Ravenswood West have been reprocessed and have already aided geological interpretation over Dreghorn, Keans and Elphinstone Creek (Figure 4). The soil and rock chip geochemical data currently being collected will be overlain on the magnetic interpretation to provide context for anomalism and better drill target definition.

HODGKINSON WORK PROGRAM (Sunshine Gold 100%)

A field mapping and soil sampling program is also underway at the Campbell Creek prospect area within the Hodgkinson Project. The prospect is located 40km northwest of the Mt Carbine tungsten mine and just 5km from the Watershed tungsten project. Campbell Creek is known for alluvial gold mineralisation and sits at the top of the Palmer River watershed. No hard rock source for the gold has ever been systematically found or explored for. To date, the program is approximately 50% complete with results expected in July 2021.

ABOUT SUNSHINE GOLD

Sunshine Gold is focused on its high-quality gold and copper projects in Queensland. Following the recent acquisitions of XXXX Gold Pty Ltd and Ukalunda Pty Ltd, Sunshine Gold has secured 100% interest in the Triumph, Hodgkinson, Investigator and Ravenswood West projects.

Triumph Gold Project (EPM18486, EPM19343: 100%)

  1. The project is located 50km south of the mining hub of Gladstone and comprises two explora�on permits covering 138km[2] . Triumph is located within the Wandilla Province of the New England Orogen. Nearby large gold deposits include Mt Rawdon (2.8 Moz Au), Mt Morgan (8 Moz Au and 0.4 Mt Cu) and Cracow (2 Moz Au). Triumph is a 15km² intrusion related gold system which has the poten�al to host both discrete high-grade vein deposits and largescale, shear hosted gold deposits.

Hodgkinson Gold Copper Project (EPM18171, EPM19809, EPM25139, EPM27539, EPM27574, EPM27575: 100%)

Hodgkinson is located 100km north east of Cairns in North Queensland. The project comprises four explora�on permits and two explora�on lease applica�ons covering 365km[2] . The project is situated between the Palmer River alluvial gold field (1.35 Moz Au) and the historic Hodgkinson gold field (0.3 Moz Au) and incorporates the Elephant Creek Gold, Peninsula Gold-Copper and Campbell Creek Gold prospects. Hodgkinson has been extensively explored for tungsten, owing to its proximity to the Watershed and Mt Carbine tungsten deposits, but underexplored for gold. BHP-Utah Interna�onal completed stream sediment sampling across the en�re tenure in the late 1980’s and confirmed that the area was anomalous in gold as well as tungsten.

Investigator Copper Project (EPM27344, EPM27345: 100%)

Inves�gator comprises two explora�on permits covering 115km[2] . It is located 110km north of Mt Isa and 12km south of the Mt Gordon Copper Mine. Inves�gator has seen no modern explora�on and importantly, no holes have been drilled in the most prospec�ve stra�graphic and structural posi�ons.

Ravenswood West Gold-Copper-Rare Earths Project (EPM 26041, EPM 26152, EPM 26303, EPM 26304: 100%)

kms of the Ravenswood Mining Centre (4 Moz Au produced, a further 4.3 Moz Au in Resource and 1.8 Moz in Ore Reserves). The Ravenswood Mining Centre was purchased by EMR Capital and Golden Energy & Resources Ltd. (SGX:AUE) from Resolute Mining Ltd. (ASX:RSG) in 2020 for up to $300m and is presently subject to a ~$200m upgrade. In addi�on, there are three other gold mills within 100km, two of which are toll trea�ng.

The Project is highly prospec�ve for intrusion-related and orogenic gold, porphyry gold-copper-molybdenum and rare earth elements. Ravenswood West covers 20-25km of strike along a major fault that links Pajingo (4 Moz) and Ravenswood (9.8 Moz) and contains numerous historic gold workings.

JORC Code, 2012 Edition TABLE 1

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data (Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

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.
• Include reference to measures taken
to ensure sample representivity and
the appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
• 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.
Historical Drilling:
Dreghorn – Reverse circulation chip samples. Split unknown
(CR32526).
Keans – Diamond full core samples alongside sludge samples.
(CR476 & CR1776). It is believed those reported in this release
were core samples.
Historical Soil Samples: Three historical datasets are referred to
in this release. 1) Open File Queensland Database from BHP
utilising -20 mesh samples for bulk cyanide leach; 2) Open File
dataset from Carpentaria Gold utilising -80 mesh standard soil
sampling; and 3) in-house data collected by Stavely Minerals
believed to be standard -80 mesh. Samples for dataset 1 was
collected from pits dug to approximately 15cm depth (base of
B-horizon) and sieved to -20 mesh for a sample size of 1.5kg.
Samples from datasets 2 & 3 were collected from B-horizon soil
(roughly 10cm) below surfacing using a palaeopick and sieved
in situ -80 mesh. Samples were typically 100 – 200g in size. It is
acknowledged by SHN that two differing methodologies are
present here through which interpretation of anomalies should
be considered separately. For the purpose of this visualisation
it is considered appropriate however to utilise these two
methodologies on one image.
Sunshine Gold Rock Chips: Rocks were selected by the field
geologist and recorded as either in situ (outcrop), float (alluvial)
or from working spoil. A standard geopick hammer is utilised to
collect a sample typically of 1 – 2kg size along the required
outcrop ensuring care is taken to only sample the required unit.
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.).
Historical Drilling:
Dreghorn – Reverse circulation chip samples. Split unknown
(CR32526).
Keans – Diamond drilling, unorientated, collaring in NX size,
reducing to BX around 34ft, AX at 49ft and EX at 99ft (Hole R1).

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Drill sample
recovery
• Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries and
results assessed.
• Measures taken to maximise sample
recovery and ensure representative
nature of the samples.
• Whether
a
relationship
exists
between sample recovery and grade
and whether sample bias may have
occurred due to preferential loss/gain
of fine/coarse material.
Historical Drilling:
Dreghorn – No reference to recoveries available.
Keans – Recoveries for holes R1 to R6 averaged 83.4%
(CR1776).
Logging

• Whether core and chip samples have
been geologically and geotechnically
logged to a level of detail to support
appropriate
Mineral
Resource
estimation,
mining
studies
and
metallurgical studies.
• Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or
costean, channel, etc.) photography.
• The total length and percentage of
the relevant intersections logged.
Historical Drilling:
Dreghorn – All holes were reportedly geologically logged in full
on metre by metre intervals, recording rock type, veining,
structure, alteration, mineralisation, weathering and colour.
No photos are available.
Keans – Holes reportedly logged in full but only log for hole R1
located. No photos are available.
Historical Soils:
Partial logging was undertaken to record substrate
Sunshine Gold Rock Chips:
Rocks have been logged for lithology, alteration, mineralisation
and veining and recorded in the SHN Geochemistry Database.
Photos are taken of all submitted samples.
Sub- sampling
techniques,
sample
preparation
• If core, whether cut or sawn and
whether quarter, half or all core taken.
• If non-core, whether riffled, tube
sampled, rotary split, etc. and whether
sampled wet or dry.
• For all sample types, the nature,
quality and appropriateness of the
sample preparation technique.
• Quality control procedures adopted
for
all sub-sampling stages to
maximise representivity of samples.
• 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.
• Whether sample sizes are appropriate
to the grain size of the material being
sampled.
Historical data sets:
No sub-sampling data available
Sunshine Gold Rock Chips:
Sample size of 1 – 3kg is deemed representative as a “point
sample” within a referenced outcrop or location. They are not
deemed representative of the entire outcrop or prospect as a
whole.
No SHN QC procedures used for rock chips. Samples have
utilised the laboratory in-house QAQC protocols.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Quality of 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.
• 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.
• 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.
Historical Drilling:
Dreghorn – Samples were assayed for Au using a 50g fire assay
code; They were also assayed for Cu, Pb, Zn, Ag, As, Bi, Mo, Fe
and S using an aqua regia digest and ICP-AES finish.
Keans – No information is available on the analysis
methodology
Historical Soils:
BHP BLEG Samples were assayed for Au using bulk-cyanide
leach extraction and AAS finish, with other elements
determined by aqua regia digest and ICP-OES finish. Both the
Carpentaria and Stavely Minerals -80 mesh standard soils were
assayed for gold only using a 25g fire assay and MS finish.
Sunshine Gold Rock Chips:
Rock chips were assayed using a 50g fire assay for gold which
is considered appropriate for this style of mineralisation. Fire
assay is considered total assay for gold. All other elements
were assayed usingICP-MS.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
• The
verification
of
significant
intersections by either independent or
alternative company personnel.
• The use of twinned holes.
• Documentation of primary data, data
entry procedures, data verification,
data storage (physical and electronic)
protocols.
• Discuss any adjustment to assay data.
Historical Datasets:
Historical data is reported as per the open file reports. No
twinned holes are available for direct correlation to drill hole.
Primary assay data is available for the Stavely Minerals soils
and Haoma Mining drilling. Data from the Keans drilling has
been converted from feet into metres. No conversions on
assays have been undertaken here.
Sunshine Gold Rock Chips:
All rock chips are considered valid for that point location only
if outcrop, or as an example of ore/waste material if mullock.
Location of data
points
• Accuracy and quality of surveys used
to locate drill holes (collar and down-
hole
surveys),
trenches,
mine
workings and other locations used in
Mineral Resource estimation.
• Specification of the grid system used.
• Quality and adequacy of topographic
control.
Historical Drilling:
Dreghorn – Collar locations are reported in AGD84, Zone 55. It
is believed these were taken by handheld GPS only (not
differential GPS). These have since been converted to GDA94,
Zone 55.
Keans – Collar locations are approximates only and are
calculated using a historical map roughly registered into GDA94
Zone 55 projection.
Historical Soils:
Soils are provided in either AGD84 or GDA94, Zone 55. All those
not in GDA94 Zone 55 were converted.
Sunshine Gold Rock Chips:
Rock chips locations are located as points using handheld GPS
in GDA94, Zone 55 format.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Data Spacing and
distribution
• Data
spacing
for
reporting
of
Exploration Results.
• 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.
• Whether sample compositing has
been applied.
Historical Drilling:
Historical drill holes were exploration holes only and therefore
did not have a set spacing. The holes were considered
appropriately located for the target.
Historical Soils:
BHP samples used 50m sample centres (running east-west)
with 100m spaced lines. Carpentaria also used 50m sample
centres and 100m spaced lines, however lines were orientated
north-south. Outside of these detailed areas, Carpentaria
utilised a 200x200m grid. Stavely Minerals utilised 40m sample
centres (east-west) with 480m spaced lines.
Sunshine Gold Rock Chips:
No data spacing has been applied to the rock chip samples due
to the nature of the technique.
Orientationof
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.
• 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.
Historical Drilling:
Drill holes in order to intersect the interpreted mineralisation
trends as orthogonal (perpendicular) as possible. These trends
were determined
using surface geology
and
target
interpretations.
Historical Soils:
Samples are believed to have been spaced and orientated to
provide a detailed traverse perpendicular across the main
target orientation.
Sample security • The measures taken to ensure sample
security.
Historical Datasets:
No information on sample security is available.
Sunshine Gold Rock Chips:
Samples were allocated an identification number upon
collection, which was written on the calico sample bag by the
Geologist. The samples were then placed into plastic bags
(approximately five per bag) and transported by SHN to the
laboratory. No third party was involved with the handling of
the sample between collection and drop off.
Audits or reviews • The results of any audits or reviews of
sampling techniques and data.
Historical Datasets:
Sampling techniques and data are considered standard for the
time at which they were collected. As with all historical
datasets, there is an acknowledged gap in the available
information and as such should be treated with caution.
Sunshine Gold:
The sampling techniques are regularly reviewed during the
program and further review will take place prior to future
drilling.

Dataaggregation
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.
• 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.
• The
assumptions used
for
any
reporting of metal equivalent values
should be clearly stated.
Historical drilling results are reported as previously
reported in open file data.
Sunshine Gold rock chips are reported as individual point
samples with no metal equivalents 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’).
The geometry of the mineralisation is subject to ongoing
interpretation and as such intervals are reported in
downhole length only.
