Woyla Sweet Spot Leads to
Phase 2 Drill Program Extension
Far East Gold Ltd (‘FEG’ or ‘the Company’) is excited to announce as a result of the outstanding high
grade, wide zone drill results from the Pertama vein at Rek Rinti the Company is extending the Phase 2
scout drill program at its highly prospective Woyla Copper Gold Project for an additional 2,000m. This
strategic move reflects the Company’s commitment to harnessing the full potential of this promising
resource, and it signifies an exciting new chapter in unlocking the huge potential of the Woyla project.
HIGHLIGHTS
The Company’s Phase 2 program at Woyla has so far completed 68 holes totaling 10,790m of
diamond drilling across the Anak Perak, Aloe Eumpeuk and Rek Rinti Prospect areas. The expanded
Phase 2 drill program will further test the Pertama vein `sweet spot’ at Rek Rinti down dip and along
strike to the southwest.
The Company expects that deeper drilling will provide for a complete intersection of the quartz zone.
The extended program will also include initial evaluation of interpreted UAV magnetic anomalies within
the Rek Rinti vein system. The UAV survey is ongoing with about 85% of the survey area completed.
The Company expects the extended Phase 2 program to be completed by the end of the year.
As advised in the Company’s ASX release on 5 September 2023 the Phase 2 drill program at Rek Rinti
has intersected a wide zone of significant mineralization within the Pertama vein southwest of the
Agam zone (Figure 1).
Holes RRD019 and RRD020 intersected high grade gold and silver mineralisation within multiphase
massive quartz veins and stockwork quartz veins. The zone remains open to depth and along strike.
Significant assay intersections through this zone include:
RRD019: 2.2m at 4.06g/t Au, 65.1g/t Ag (4.84g/t Au Eq) from 38m – 40.2m including;
-
1.3m at 6.13g/t Au, 65.9g/t Ag (6.92g/t AuEq) from 38.9m; and
-
0.4m at 9.26g/t Au, 61.0g/t Ag (9.99g/t AuEq) from 39.8m.
This zone occurs within a 34.7m wide zone (drilled width) from 31.8m – 66.5m.
RRD020: 5.5m at 4.16g/t Au, 49.8g/t Ag (4.76g/t AuEq) from 59.4m – 64.9m including;
-
2.6m at 5.81g/t Au, 71.3g/t Ag (6.67g/t AuEq) from 59.4m; and
-
1m at 9.21g/t Au, 96.0g/t Ag (10.4g/t AuEq) from 60m.
-
2.2m at 4.84g/t Au, 9.32g/t Ag (4.96g/t Au Eq) from 33m – 35.2m including;
-
1.4m at 7.48g/t Au, 14.1g/t Ag (7.64g/t AuEq) from 33.8m; and
-
0.8m at 9.30g/t Au, 19.9g/t Ag (9.54g/t AuEq) from 33.8m.

The mineralization in RRD020 occurs within a 38.1m wide zone (drilled width) from 33m – 71.1m.
A total of 6.9m of a 16.5m wide zone of near massive quartz intersected from 48.4m to 64.9m could
not be cored or sampled due to historical artisanal mining. The zone was intersected approximately
50m downdip from RRD019.

The location of holes RRD017-RRD020 in the southwestern extension of the Pertama vein are indicated as are other
holes completed as part of the Phase1 and 2 drill programs. The area of focus for the extended Phase 2 drill program at
the Pertama vein is indicated.
