Resource Upgrade and Expansion Drill Program to Commence
HIGHLIGHTS
RESOURCE UPGRADE DRILLING
-
Resource upgrade and expansion drilling to commence at the Monument Gold Project’s 154koz Au JORC (2012) Inferred Resource in the prolific Laverton Goldfields, WA
-
Initial 3,600m RC drill program to focus on resource upgrade at the Korong (139Koz Au) deposit to Indicated confidence level in the first stage, and progress towards mining licence
-
Historical high grade intercepts at Korong include:
-
7m @ 13.15g/t Au (MRC036 – from 7m)
-
6m @ 7.24g/t Au (MRC003 – from 79m)
-
6m @ 3.15g/t Au (KORC001 – from 95m)
-
5m @ 3.22g/t Au (KORC002 – from 130m)
-
Campaign forms part of a multi-stage drilling initiative, including resource extension drilling and early-stage metallurgical testing
-
Mineralisation across the 154koz resource Korong (139koz) and Waihi (15koz) remain open in all directions with significant scope for additional resource ounces with further drilling
-
Diamond drilling and step-out drilling planned for subsequent stages to further expand resource footprint
MONUMENT GOLD PROJECT
-
Monument Gold Project is located in WA’s world-class Laverton Gold District and comprises ~195km[2] of tenure, directly adjacent to and along strike of Genesis Minerals’ (ASX: GMD) 3.3Moz Laverton Gold Project with 3.1Mtpa operating mill
-
Monument also hosts ~20km of relatively untested banded iron formation , interpreted to be the same unit that hosts the 1.4Moz Westralia gold deposit, located directly southeast of Monument
-
Over 60 additional BIF, basalt and intrusion-hosted gold drill targets at the Monument Gold Project remain to be adequately tested
Verity Resources Limited (ASX: VRL ) ( Verity or the Company ) is pleased to announce the imminent commencement of its resource upgrade and expansion drilling campaign at the 100%-owned 3.3Mt @ 1.4g/t Au Monument Gold Project in the prolific Laverton Goldfields, Western Australia.

Verity Director, Patrick Volpe, commented,
“The initiation of this first resource-focused drilling campaign is an exciting milestone for Verity and its Monument Gold Project. Our systematic approach aims to rapidly upgrade the Korong and Waihi resources, potentially add ounces along the way, and move towards economic evaluation through scoping studies whilst a mining licence application progresses in the background.
The Board and exploration team have been looking forward to the commencement of drilling as part of the resource upgrade and expansion strategy at Monument. We are confident in the potential the project presents with additional highly prospective BIF and intrusive targets that we plan to uncover alongside our resource development plans. There is a lot to look forward to for our shareholders and we look forward to presenting further updates as they arise.”
The initial phase of Reverse Circulation ( RC ) drilling is scheduled to start imminently at the 139koz Au Korong deposit, and will comprise 54 drill holes for a total of approximately 3,600 metres. This phase aims to increase geological confidence and facilitate the upgrade of existing Korong resource from JORC (2012) Inferred to Indicated confidence level, as a precursor to future scoping studies.
Drilling activities will focus primarily on infill drilling, twinning of historical drill holes, and will include a series of step-out holes designed to expand the mineralisation footprint. The Company expects drilling to be completed within three weeks, weather permitting.
Historical high grade intercepts within the first phase resource upgrade target area at Korong include:
-
7m @ 13.15g/t Au (MRC036 – from 7m)[1]
-
6m @ 7.24g/t Au (MRC003 – from 79m)[2]
-
6m @ 3.15g/t Au (KORC001 – from 95m)
-
5m @ 3.22g/t Au (KORC002 – from 130m)
-
7m @ 1.21g/t Au (KORC004 – from 110m)
-
6m @ 1.69g/t Au (KORC012 – from 78m)
-
5m @ 2.56g/t Au (KORC016 – from 124m)
-
5m @ 2.03g/t Au (KORC021 – from 60m)

In addition to resource definition, the RC drilling program will also provide critical samples for initial metallurgical test work, designed to assess the metallurgical properties of the gold mineralisation hosted within the Banded Iron Formation ( BIF ).
The Korong resource currently stands at approximately 139,000 ounces Au. This drilling campaign represents the first step in Verity’s broader resource upgrade and expansion strategy announced earlier this year (refer ASX release dated 30 April 2025).
Following the completion of the initial RC drilling phase, Verity intends to undertake a diamond drilling program, as well as additional RC drilling designed to extend mineralisation along strike and at depth. Exploration will also continue at the nearby Waihi resource, further enhancing the prospectivity and scale of the Monument Gold Project.

About the Monument Gold Project
The Monument Gold Project is in WA’s world-class Laverton Gold District and comprises ~195km[2] of tenure located approximately 40km west of Laverton, adjacent and along strike of Genesis Minerals’ (ASX: GMD) 3.3Moz Au Mt Morgan Project . A Mineral Resource Estimate of 154koz of gold (see ASX announcement on 2 August 2021) was undertaken on the Korong and Waihi deposits, which occur along ~20km of relatively untested banded iron formation, interpreted to be the same unit that hosts the 1.4Moz Westralia gold deposit, located immediately southeast of Monument.
To date, only ~10% of the potential 20km strike has been drilled with detailed air core and reverse circulation drilling. There is currently additional priority targets identified along the banded iron formations horizon, that forms part of a 20km potential structural strike length identified that could also potentially host multiple other syenite-intrusion style targets (in total approximately 60 targets remaining to be tested).
