High-Grade Gold Mineralisation Found Across
Multiple Prospects at Idenburg
Far East Gold Limited (“FEG” or “the Company”) is pleased to report that recent detailed geological
mapping across the North Bermol, South Bermol, and Nova prospect areas within the Company’s
Flagship Idenburg Project, has identified multiple new zones of mineralised quartz veining associated
with low angle shear-fault systems.
Field sampling has returned high-grade gold assay results from all three prospects, further
demonstrating the district-scale potential of the Idenburg Project.
Head Indonesian Geologist Pak Tedy Setiabudi has released a video discussing this
announcement. Watch the video on our investor hub here: https://fareast.gold/link/e95wDe
KEY RESULTS:
• North Bermol: Grab and outcrop sample assays up to 22.1 g/t Au and 11.8 g/t Ag.
• South Bermol: Grab and outcrop sample assays up to 7.1 g/t Au and 2.6 g/t Ag.
• Nova Prospect: Grab and outcrop sample assays up to 8.1 g/t Au and 2.1 g/t Ag.
• The mineralised samples were collected from quartz–sulphide zones within interpreted low angle
shear and thrust faults. The significance of such structures has been confirmed by drill intercepts
at Bermol and North Bermol prospects. Refer to Company ASX announcement of Oct. 27, 2025.
• These results confirm that similar gold-mineralised fault/shear structures occur within multiple
prospects, underscoring the strong potential for additional gold discoveries through continued drill
testing of defined targets.
HIGHLIGHTS:
• Detailed mapping has discovered additional outcropping sulphide-bearing quartz veins and
shear zones across the Bermol district (see Figures 2 and 3).
• The low-angle, northwest-trending shear zones that host high-grade mineralisation at North
Bermol are now recognised in other areas, confirming the potential to define new high-grade gold
zones.
• Mapping and sampling within the Nova prospect have identified mineralised quartz–sulphide veins
within shear zones that have gold grades comparable to those at Bermol.
• Results from the expanded surface mapping program and from recent drilling reinforce the
Company’s interpretation that multiple shear-related gold systems are present. The results
support the Company’s aggressive work program to make new discoveries and expand
defined resources. Refer to ASX announcement dated 14 November 2024.
• The Company currently has two drill rigs operating at the North Bermol and Sua prospects,
where the ongoing drilling campaign continues to deliver highly encouraging results.

HIGH GRADE MINERALISATION
Figure 1: Map showing prospect and resource areas within the Idenburg COW tenement. The areas of announced PIPPIB
forest reclassification is also indicated. Refer to ASX announcement of Nov. 4, 2025. Recent mapping was completed in
the North Bermol, South Bermol and Nova prospect area. Rock samples represent grab samples from boulders collected
in the field. See Figures 2 and 3. See Table 2 for details of the JORC 2012 inferred mineral resource estimate for Idenburg.
Results of Detailed Mapping
Coincident with the current Phase 1 drill program the Company is completing a program of
detailed mapping within the Idenburg property. This work builds on the review and assessment of
historical exploration at Idenburg prepared by SMGC and discussed in their Independent
Exploration Target Report for the Idenburg Property released by the Company in ASX
announcement of August 21, 2024. The objective is to define new zones of gold mineralisation
to possibly test as part of the ongoing drill program. The South Bermol prospect represents the
interpreted southern extension of an approximately 4km long structural corridor (Figure 2).
Although the corridor has a general north-northeastern orientation mapping and recent drilling at
North Bermol indicate that gold mineralisation can also be found within northwest-trending
fault/shear zones. Refer to Company ASX announcement of Oct. 27, 2025.

Idenburg Mineral Resource Estimate
The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the
information included in the Idenburg Mineral Resource estimate and all material assumptions and
technical parameters underpinning the estimate continue to apply and have not materially changed
when referring to its resource announcement made on 16 December 2024 ‘Amended Idenburg
Announcement and Independent JORC Resource Report”. The Company confirms that the
Competent Persons’s findings are presented and have not been materially modified from the original
market announcement.
Table 3: Mineral Resource table as estimated by SMGC based on historical exploration data using a cut-off
grade of 0.1 g/t Au with no grade capping applied to the IMI historical assays. The resource tonnage are
estimated based on a specific gravity of 2.8 t/m3. Gold recovery of 90% was based on historical preliminary
metallurgical testing completed on Sua drill core composites.
A ‘Mineral Resource’ is a concentration or occurrence of material of intrinsic economic interest in or
on the Earth’s crust in such form, quality and quantity that there are reasonable prospects for eventual
economic extraction. The location, quantity, grade, geological characteristics and continuity of a
Mineral Resource are known, estimated or interpreted from specific geological evidence and
knowledge. Mineral Resources are sub- divided, in order of increasing geological confidence, into
Inferred, Indicated and Measured categories (2012 JORC Code).
An ‘Inferred Mineral Resource’ is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade (or
quality) are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence and sampling. Geological evidence
is sufficient to imply but not verify geological and grade (or quality) continuity. It is based on
exploration, sampling and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from locations
such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes. An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower
level of confidence than that applying to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to
an Ore Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be
upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.

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 (eg 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 completed this
would be relatively simple (eg ‘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 (eg
submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information.
• All rock samples were
collected by a Company
geologist who collected
pertinent geological data
and site survey coordinates
using a hand-help Garmin
GPS. Grab samples were
collected from sites of
specific interest and visible
sulphide mineralisation.
Chip samples were collected
across the area to be
sampled and were taken to
be as representative as
possible. Each sample site
was photographed.
• All sample preparation and
assays were undertaken by
the independent
Geoservices Laboratory in
Jakarta, Indonesia
• Gold analyses of all drill core
samples were by fire assay
with atomic absorption
spectrometry (AAS) finish of
a 50g sample, with a
detection limit of 0.01 g/t Au
(method FAS4AAS).
• For the determination of base
metal AAS analytes the
Geoservices GAM006 –
Base Metal Determination
method was used with
detection limits of Ag (0.5
ppm) and Cu, Pb, Zn (each 5
ppm).

Level elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar
- dip and azimuth of the hole
- down-hole length and interception depth
- hole length.
• If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the
information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the
understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain
why this is the case.
Data
aggregation
methods
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg 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.

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 (eg ‘down-hole length, true
width not known’).
