MONUMENT GOLD PROJECT UPDATE
HIGHLIGHTS
AIRCORE DRILLING COMPLETE AT ANOMALOUS TARGETS
-
Aircore drill program completed at three anomalous gold targets outside of 154koz Au Resource
-
Assays pending at ALS, results estimated to return early June
Star Well Prospect
- Drilling tested gold anomalism delineated from previous surface sampling at Star Well that returned up to 6.17g/t Au
Triton Prospect
-
Drilling completed to test an analogous position to the Fred’s Well prospect (previously intersected 24m @ 3.24g/t Au from 44m including 12m @ 6.35g/t Au ) with coincident surface gold anomalism
-
Korong West Prospect
-
Drilling targeted prospective stratigraphy to the west of the Korong Mineral Resource Estimate ( 139koz Au Inferred MRE )
RESOURCE UPGRADE STRATEGY
-
Comprehensive review and validation studies at the 154koz Au Korong and Waihi Mineral Resources Estimate progressing as part of the Company’s resource upgrade strategy
-
Resource-upgrade focussed drilling program planned
-
Drilling program to comprise targeted infill and step-out drilling to support an upgraded JORC (2012) confidence level to Indicated and potential resource expansion
METALLURGICAL TESTING AT 154KOZ AU RESOURCE
- Scope of work analysis completed for a metallurgical testwork program at 154koz Au Korong-Waihi Mineral Resource Estimate to evaluate optimal gold recovery process and inform future scoping and feasibility studies
MONUMENT GOLD PROJECT
-
Monument Gold Project is located in WA’s world-class Laverton Gold District and comprises ~195km[2] of tenure, adjacent and along strike of Genesis Minerals’ (ASX: GMD) 3.3Moz Laverton Gold Project
-
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 immediately southeast of Monument

Verity Resources Limited (ASX: VRL ) ( Verity or the Company ) is pleased to provide an update on its exploration activities at its 100%-owned Monument Gold Project, located in the world class Laverton Goldfields in Western Australia.
The Company is advancing a pipeline of highly prospective gold targets across the Monument Project as part of its strategy to define a larger, higher-confidence gold resource base in one of Australia’s most active gold belts. The Monument Gold Project comprises 195km[2] of highly prospective greenstone, along strike of Genesis Minerals ( GMD:ASX ) 3.3Moz Laverton Gold Project.

Verity’s exploration strategy is underpinned by a dual focus on upgrading and expanding the existing Mineral Resource Estimate while systematically testing high-potential greenfields targets. The Monument Project provides an opportunity to delineate a district-scale gold system supported by:
-
a strategic location within a Tier 1 gold district;
-
20km of prospective BIF strike, largely untested;
-
proximity to major gold deposits and infrastructure; and
-
a growing pipeline of advanced and early-stage targets.

DRILLING COMPLETED AT ANOMALOUS TARGETS
The Company has completed aircore drilling programs across three additional anomalous gold targets at the Monument Gold Project.
The program consisted of 19 aircore drill holes for a total of 757 meters at the priority Star Well, Triton and Korong West prospects. Drilling tested interpreted structural and stratigraphic targets, as well as gold anomalism identified in previous soil geochemistry sampling programs.
Samples have been submitted for gold and multi-element analysis, and assay results are expected to return early June.

RESOURCE UPGRADE
The Company has engaged Environmental Resources Management ( ERM ) to undertake a comprehensive review and validation of historical drilling data associated with the current MRE. This review will determine the level of infill and twin drilling required to support a reclassification to Indicated status in accordance with the JORC (2012) Code.
In conjunction with the data validation program, Verity is planning a resource-focused drill campaign to:
-
undertake infill drilling to increase geological confidence within the existing resource envelope;
-
conduct step-out drilling to test for extensions along strike and at depth, targeting potential resource growth; and
-
generate updated geological models and ultimately deliver a revised Mineral Resource Estimate.
The Resource-validation studies are expected to be completed early June, with a Resource-focussed drill program to commence immediately afterwards.
METALLURGICAL TESTWORK ON 154KOZ MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE
The Company has commenced a scope of work analysis to inform a metallurgical testwork program on samples from the Korong-Waihi 154koz Au Resource. The metallurgical program is planned to evaluate and optimise gold recovery processes across the mineralised zones, with a focus on characterising ore variability, grind size sensitivity, gravity recoverable gold content, and cyanide leach performance. The results of the program will inform future scoping and feasibility studies by providing critical data on metallurgical performance, process flow design, and potential processing routes. This work represents a key step in de-risking the project and advancing it toward development.
The Company looks forward to providing further updates as results are received.

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).
