Announcement PDF FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 1 IDENBURG JORC MRE INCREASES FROM 540,000 OUNCES TO 780,000 OUNCES OF GOLD The Directors of Far East Gold Limited (ASX: FEG) (FEG or the Company) are pleased to announce an updated independent Inferred JORC Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 7.8 million tonnes at an average grade of 3.1 g/t gold, representing 780,000 ounces of gold at the Company's Idenburg Gold Project (see Table 1 below). The updated MRE represents an increase of 240,000 ounces of gold, or approximately 44%, from the Company's initial JORC Inferred Resource Estimate of 4.1 million tonnes at an average grade of 4.1 g/t gold, representing 540,000 ounces of gold. Both estimates have been independently determined by SMG Consulting, based in Jakarta, Indonesia, in accordance with the JORC Code (2012 Edition). HIGHLIGHTS: • Significant 44% increase in total JORC Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate to 780,000 ounces of gold — FEG's Idenburg Gold Project now hosts a total MRE of 7.8 million tonnes at 3.1 g/t gold, representing 780,000 oz gold (refer to Table 1), underlining the Project's substantial and growing resource base. • Resource growth driven across multiple high-quality prospects — the updated MRE consolidates mineralisation from four distinct prospect areas: an upgraded resource at the Sua prospect, a maiden resource at the highly prospective North Bermol prospect, and previously reported resources at the Bermol and Mafi prospects. Critically, only 4 of 15 identified prospect areas have been drill-tested with the other 11 prospect areas identified by historical exploration have had little follow-up exploration. The Company has also identified an additional 15 high priority, interpreted structural targets that require detailed mapping to confirm. Such targets highlight the exceptional new discovery potential remaining at Idenburg. • Resource estimates validate the Company's exploration strategy — resource estimates across all four prospects are consistent with the initial exploration targets set out in the SMG Consulting Exploration Target Report of June 2024, demonstrating the quality and reliability of FEG's geological model and the systematic execution of its exploration program. • Scoping Study underway — project development pathway is now firmly in focus — FEG has engaged Mining One Consultants (Jakarta) to complete a Scoping Study evaluating the potential development of the Idenburg Gold Project's inferred resources. With continued exploration and targeted diamond drilling across the remaining 11 historical prospect areas, the Board is confident of delivering further material resource additions, with significant potential to grow the resource base well beyond its current scale. ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 05 May 2026 IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 2 CEO Comment – Shane Menere “This updated Mineral Resource represents a defining milestone for the Idenburg Gold Project and clearly signals Far East Gold’s transition from exploration into project development. Through disciplined drilling at Sua, we have increased the resource from 540,000 ounces to 780,000 ounces while making a new discovery at North Bermol, validating both the scale and continuity of the system, with substantial upside remaining across a largely underexplored district. Importantly, we have now established the core technical and permitting foundations required to advance Idenburg along a development pathway. Metallurgical test work indicates strong recoveries using conventional processing methods, permitting milestones including forestry reclassification have been achieved, and a Scoping Study the next step to further define the project’s development potential. In parallel with ongoing exploration aimed at systematically expanding the resource base, the Company intends to progress technical studies toward feasibility-level assessment in Indonesia. This work aligns with our contractual pathway to increase project ownership and will provide greater clarity around the potential production profile and long-term value of the asset. The combination of resource growth, favourable metallurgy, advancing permitting, and district- scale exploration potential positions Idenburg as a compelling gold project within the region. With only a small portion of identified prospect areas drill tested to date, we see a clear pathway to continue delivering resource growth alongside development milestones, supporting a consistent pipeline of news flow. As the project continues to mature, we are seeing increasing interest in assets of this scale and quality, particularly those with clear development pathways and exposure to strong gold fundamentals. We believe Idenburg is emerging as a strategically important gold asset with the potential to attract broader market attention as we continue to advance both exploration and development in parallel.” CEO & Director Shane Menere has released a video discussing this announcement.

The Idenburg Project is situated within the Keerom and the Pegunungan Bintang Regencies of Papua (Figure 1), near the border with Papua New Guinea. The all-weather Trans Irian Highway is an asphalted road from the regional capital of Jayapura that transects the Exploration COW and allows for relatively easy access and cost-effective logistical support (Figure 2). Compared to other projects in Papua logistical support is simple and cost-effective especially when compared to the other major producers in Papua. Geology and Geological Interpretation Field observations show that the basic style of gold mineralisation as determined from mapping and drill core logging is of the orogenic gold type, also referred to as mesothermal lode gold. The presence of coarse gold with a high nugget value is inherent to deposits of this type and will need to be evaluated when sampling or assaying. The current Idenburg project COW is situated in the northeast corner of a diverse terrain located at the boundary of the zone of plate interaction on the northern edge of the Mamberamo Fold and Thrust Belt. This is a 200-kilometre wide, northwest trending, complex zone of anastomosing, linear, and locally imbricate faulting and thrusting. IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 4 The Idenburg project COW is situated within the western portion of the Idenburg Inlier, which extends into the Amanab Terrane in western Papua New Guinea. This is a block of older continental crust situated within the boundary zone between the two colliding plates. It consists of the Australian plate metamorphic rocks (phyllites, schists, and gneisses), and abducted ophiolites (gabbro, granodiorite, diorite, diabase, and basalt unconformably overlain by early to mid-Tertiary shelf limestone, shallow marine limestone and mid-to-late Tertiary shallow marine claystone, siltstone, greywacke and carbonates (Figure 2). Figure 2 – Geology of the Idenburg Inlier showing the Sua-Afley Shear Zone and Mafi River Thrust Fault in Blue Dash-Dot Lines. The Idenburg project COW boundary is shown (red) as are the locations of several of the known prospect areas. Two regional post-Mesozoic deformation events were responsible for the present structural configuration of the region: 1. Compressive deformation accompanying the Oligocene-Miocene collision of the Australian and Pacific Plates; and 2. Subsequent on-going oblique collision between the two plates during the Late Miocene that was responsible for the structural inversion of the North Coast Basin and development of the Mamberamo Thrust Belt. A zone of dilatational jogs with sigmoidal fractures and linear ridges associated with sinistral wrenching has been identified in the Derewo Metamorphics that occurred during deformation. IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 5 This is the same event that focused emplacement of the Grasberg/Ertsberg intrusions that are associated with the world-class copper-gold deposits of the Ertsberg mining district. Two regional dislocations developed in the area during these deformation events: 1. The Derewo Fault Zone separating the Australian Plate and the Derewo Metamorphics; and 2. The Der Wal Fault Zone and the Luban Fault Zone, which separate the Derewo Metamorphics from the Ophiolite Belt in the northwest and from the ophiolites and Idenburg Inlier in the southeast. The Idenburg Inlier is structurally complex with NW-trending regional folds and associated axial plane faults, strong NW-striking regional thrusts, and normal and strike-slip faults containing intensely sheared ultramafic rocks. In June 2024, SMGC reported Exploration Targets for 14 prospects identified by historical exploration within the Idenburg CoW area (Figure 3). Refer to the independent SMG Consultants (SMGC) report titled Pt. Iriana Mutiara Idenburg Exploration Targeting Report of June 2024 that was included in the Company’s ASX announcement of August 21, 2024. Figure 3 : Map showing the location of the Idenburg COW and prospect areas identified. The Sua, North Bermol, Bermol and Mafi prospects comprise the current JORC 2012 inferred resource estimate determined by SMGC. IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 6 DRILLING Three campaigns of diamond drilling have been completed at Idenburg. Two of these were historical drilling completed up to 2007 and resulted in 59 holes drilled for a total of 5,690.95m within the Sua (22 holes/2,255.25m), Bermol (7 holes / 77.41m), Mafi (23 holes / 1,642.2m), Sikirima (4 holes / 598.3m) and Selia (3 holes / 423.8m). Drill results from Sua, Bermol and Mafi were used for the initial Idenburg JORC 2012 inferred mineral resource completed by SMGC in 2024. Recent diamond drilling by FEG completed between June 2025 and March 2026 total 6,892.6m in 56 drill holes. The drilling was completed at Sua (18 holes/4,125m), Bermol (12 holes/1,224.9m) and North Bermol (26 holes/1,542.7m). To date a total of 12,583.55m have been drilled at Idenburg from 115 drill holes to test 6 separate prospect areas. The updated mineral resource reported herein is based on 90 drilled holes and results reported from a total of 4,896 individual assays of drill core. FEG drilled holes included in the updated inferred JORC 2012 resource estimate include 13 holes from Sua and 25 holes from North Bermol representing an additional 4,175.7 m of drilling. The Bermol and Mafi resource estimates stated in the updated resource are based on historical drilling and assay data and are unchanged from the initial inferred JORC 2012 resource estimate prepared by SMGC in 2024. Compiled significant intersections for historical drillholes and FEG drill holes included as part of the updated Sua resource estimate are listed in Appendix 1. Hole spacings for each deposit area were generally drilled along 100m spaced fences with 2 holes at 100m spacing often drilled on each section. Most holes were drilled on section and oriented perpendicular to the interpreted main strike of shallow dipping vein/shear structures. Drilled widths of mineralized zones are interpreted as apparent true widths. FEG did complete a few 50m spaced drill holes at the Sua prospect. The Mafi deposit had 6 holes drilled at variable orientations from 2 drill pads due to difficult terrain. Although the drill results confirmed the interpreted strike and dip continuity of gold-bearing shear zones and contained quartz veins, the current hole density is insufficient to allow for detailed geological model of the host structures and veins. This was particularly evident at the Bermol prospect where despite FEG drilling 12 holes geological modelling remains ongoing, and SMGC decided to defer to the initial 2024 resource estimate for Bermol. As such, until a program of closer-spaced infill drilling is completed the updated mineral resource estimate for Idenburg reported herein remains classified as inferred under JORC 2012. Drilling Technique • Triple tube diamond core drilling – fully drilled with a diamond bit without RC pre-collar. • Core diameter was normally PQ size from surface to the base of oxidation then HQ to end of hole unless it became necessary due to ground conditions to reduce to NQ to finish the hole. • Downhole surveying was routinely conducted at 30 metre intervals for historical drilling and 50m for FEG drilling. • Hole and drillcore orientation was measured using a downhole lance for historical holes and a MagCruiser MM105 tool from Stockholm Precision Tools for FEG drilling. • The core was fitted together and marked up for sampling by a trained IMI/FEG geologist. Where loose fragments were seen the core was wrapped in masking tape before the core was cut in half. • Core recoveries exceeded 90% for all mineralised intervals reported. Rock quality data IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 7 (RQD) was recorded for each hole on a digital logging sheet. • Statistical analyses indicate no relationship between grade and recovery. Sampling and Subsampling Techniques Drill Core Sampling • All drill core was digitally photographed and logged by project geologists. Core with any potential for mineralisation was marked up for sampling and dispatched to an analytical laboratory for geochemical analysis. Only obvious non-mineralised core was not sampled. • Half core was selected for geochemical analysis. • Historical drill core sample intervals ranged from 1.0 to 2.0 metres, with an average interval of 1.38 metres. More recent FEG sampling of Sua and North Bermol drillholes, ranged from 0.3 to 1.5 metres, with an average interval of 0.8 metres. • All historical half-core samples were packed into woven polysacks by experienced site personnel and air freighted to the Sucofindo Laboratory in Timika, Central Papua. FEG core samples were air freighted to the Geoservices Laboratory in Bekasi, West Java. Both laboratories are located in Indonesia. • All historical sample preparation and assays were undertaken by the Sucofindo Laboratory. FEG sample preparation and assays were completed at Geoservices Laboratory. A comprehensive review of the results of historical exploration is provided in the independent SMG Consultants (SMGC) report titled Pt. Iriana Mutiara Idenburg Exploration Targeting Report of June 2024 that was included in the Company’s ASX announcement of August 21, 2024. Data Verification and Sampling Analysis A complete review of the Idenburg project geological database was conducted to assess if the data was suitable to support the estimating and reporting of Gold Resources by a Competent Person according to SMGC’s interpretation of the 2012 JORC Code. To allow estimation and reporting according to SMGC’s interpretation of the 2012 JORC Code, a Resource must have enough valid points of observation, and these points must be suitably spaced to accurately represent the deposit being modelled. Domain continuity and its characteristics must be understood to allow confirmation of the Resource. Points of observation can be outcrops, exploration trenches, or boreholes. Valid points of observation require the following information: ▪ Correct survey location data; ensuring that there is an acceptable discrepancy with the surface topography ▪ Geological logs detailing the various lithologies and geological structures present at a given Location ▪ A downhole survey must be undertaken to check for borehole deviation IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 8 ▪ Representative ore samples must be collected and submitted to an accredited laboratory for analysis, followed by verification through QA/QC procedures. The majority of all the above criteria were met by FEG project exploration data to date. Borehole collar elevation adjustments were made to the topographic surface for Sua, North Bermol, Bermol, and Mafi. FEG provided X, Y, Z point data, which were used by SMGC to generate a three-dimensional Digital Terrain Model (DTM) that was applied for the update resource estimation as the upper boundary (topographic constraint) for the Sua Prospect. In October 2024, PT Energi dan Mineral Teknologi Internasional (Enmintech) conducted a topographic survey using photogrammetry technology. A three-dimensional digital terrain model (DTM) was generated and provided to SMGC for both Bermol and Mafi. In October 2025, Enmintech completed a UAV LiDAR and geomagnetic survey covering approximately 1,130 hectares, over the Bermol and North Bermol prospects. A high-resolution 3D DTM for North Bermol was generated from the LiDAR data and supplied to SMGC and was used in the resource estimation for North Bermol. During the historical IMI exploration phase, QA/QC procedures were limited to laboratory-based controls. This was assessed by duplicate sampling undertaken by SMGC during a site visit in August 2024, and which identified some concerns. FEG has implemented more comprehensive QA/QC protocols for its drilling programs within the Sua, North Bermol, and Bermol prospects areas during June 2025 to February 2026. This included the routine insertion of Certified Reference Materials (CRMs), field duplicates, and blank samples to ensure ongoing monitoring of assay accuracy, precision, and contamination. A total of 106 standard samples were submitted and analysed by Geoservices Laboratory. The assay results indicate that all of the CRM values fall within ±2 standard deviations. SMGC considers these results to demonstrate good agreement between the analytical results and the certified values, indicating that the assay data are within acceptable limits. Accordingly, the laboratory performance is assessed to have a high level of analytical accuracy. These factors are important considerations for classifying the resource into the appropriate category. SMGC has also noted the presence of limited artisanal mining at the Mafi prospect area and considers it has no material impact to the geological and resource block models determined. Taking all into account SMGC deemed that the gold deposits at Sua, North Bermol, Bermol and Mafi can be categorized as Inferred Mineral Resources according to JORC 2012 requirements. Estimation and Modelling Techniques For the JORC Mineral Resource estimation SMGC completed a thorough review of the available Idenburg geological database to assess if the data was suitable to support the estimating and reporting of gold resources by a Competent Person according to the 2012 JORC Code. Based on their interpretation SMGC determined that the necessary criteria were met. SMGC determined that the zones of mineralisation delineated within the Sua, North Bermol, Bermol and Mafi prospects areas could be classified as a `Mineral Resource’ according to the 2012 JORC Code standards as stated below: 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 IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 9 confidence, into Inferred, Indicated and Measured categories (2012 JORC Code) Generally, the parameters which are considered for classification of the Mineral Resource are the distribution and density of drill data, confidence in interpreted geological continuity of the mineralised zones, and confidence in the resource block estimates. SMGC used the exploration data to build geological models and grade wireframes for the Sua and North Bermol prosects. Wireframes used for the Bermol and Mafi prospect block models were from IMI historical data and have not been modified for the updatedresource estimate. In preparing the updated 2012 JORC estimate, SMGC was of the opinion that the deposits in the four prospective areas could only be categorized as Inferred Resources (Table 1). SMGC estimated the ore tonnage for the 4 prospect areas using a cut-off grade of 0.1 g/t Au with no grade capping applied to the IMI historical assays or the FEG assays. No metal equivalencies were applied. Table 1: Idenburg mineral resource table as estimated by SMGC as of March 31, 2026. The estimation is based on historical and FEG exploration data using a cut-off grade of 0.1 g/t Au with no grade capping applied. No metal equivalencies were applied for the resource estimation. 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. To estimate grades for Sua and Mafi, SMGC applied the Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) method. This method assigns a value to a grid node by calculating the weighted average of either all data points or a selection of neighbouring points distributed in various directions. Each data point’s value is weighted based on the inverse of its distance from the grid node, squared. The choice of the exponent’s value determines the degree of localisation in gridding, with higher exponents leading to a more localised influence of distant points on the value assigned to each grid node. There was no grade capping applied in the IMI geological modelling. Further technical specifics of the resource determination are provided in the appended JORC Table 1. Table 2 below shows the difference between the initial Idenburg inferred JORC 2012 resource estimate IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 10 (Dec.2024) and the updated inferred JORC resource estimate (April 2026). The Mineral Resource Estimate in 2026 is 3.6 million tonnes (240 Koz) more than the previous estimate in 2024. This additional resource was contributed by the Sua prospect of 3.1million tonnes (218 Koz) and North Bermol 0.5 million tonnes (22 Koz). Table 2: Idenburg mineral resource table showing the difference between the initial and updated estimates as determined by SMGC. Both estimates are based on historical and FEG exploration data using a cut-off grade of 0.1 g/t Au with no grade capping applied. Geological Modelling Techniques SMGC created 4 geological models for the updated Idenburg JORC 2012 resource estimate. The area covered by the 4 models are: 1) Sua: ~ 1,130m x 1,000m; 2) Bermol: ~ 1,240 m x 1,280 m; 3) North Bermol – 750m x 1,700; and 4) Mafi: ~ 500m x 460 m. The geological models for each mineral resource area are discussed below. SMGC used the existing wireframes of Bermol, and Mafi for ore domaining that were modelled and presented in the Company’s August 21, 2024 Exploration Target announcement. FEG provided interpreted wireframes for Sua and North Bermol for drillholes completed between 2025 to 2026. Checks and validation of the borehole databases against the wireframes were undertaken by SMGC to ensure that the wireframes intersected the gold mineralized zones. These checks included: • A visual cross-sectional check of borehole sample Au assays against the ore domain. • Conduct a visual inspection of the wireframe extrapolations. • Reporting of the gold grade within the ore domain. • The geological model is limited by a maximum 100m extrapolation from data. • The parent block size selected 20m x 20m x 2m (minimum block size 2.5m x 2.5m x 2m) were considered appropriate for this style of mineralisation. The assumption of the block size was designed to match the drill spacing. • For the initial (2024) Idenburg resource estimate, SMGC opted for the Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) method for the Sua and Mafi prospects and weighted average approach for Bermol. SMGC applied the same IDW method for the updated resource including FEG drillholes completed at Sua and North Bermol while the Mafi resource remained unchanged. • The grade estimation for Bermol which applied a weighted average approach was unchanged for the current resource estimate. • There was no grade capping applied in the initial (2024) and current (2026) geological modelling. IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 11 • Validation to the model was carried out using three main techniques: • Histograms of sample assays and model grades. • Swath Plots of sample assays and model grades. • Cross sections depicting boreholes in relation to the block model. The initial (2024) Idenburg resource estimate was determined using a historical IMI determined specific gravity (SG) of 2.8 t/m3 for the Sua prospect through bulk density measurements. FEG determined the same specific gravity based on bulk density measurements completed in the field. SMGC believes this measurement to be consistent with the host rock and style of mineralization and applied the same specific gravity when estimating the mineral resources at the 4 prospects. IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 12 Sua Prospect The gold mineralisation occurs in an extensive shear zone system containing boudinaged quartz ± sulphide veins. Veins vary from <1m to about 3m in thickness. Although rare coarse gold has been observed in drill core, petrographic study indicates that most of the gold occurs as free grains within pyrite occurring along microfractures. Surface oxidation extends to maximum 20m depth. The shear zones show intense ductile deformation manifest as mylonites and intensely foliated rock types and are interpreted to be part of a extensive thrust fault system. The shear zones have a preferred NNE trend and moderate NNW dip, hosted predominately within silica- sericite-chlorite-pyrite altered diorite. There is visual evidence that both deformation and sulphide mineralisation was multistage and superimposed. Geological modelling indicates that the gold-bearing shear zones occur as a system of stacked zones that have variable thickness and lateral extent (Figure 4). Importantly that zones have considerable vertical extent and have been intersected from surface to approximately 250m depth. This is consistent with other orogenic gold systems globally. Figure 4: Oblique View Boreholes and Mineralization Wireframes Sua Prospect Wireframes modeled by FEG to represent the interpreted geometry of the gold-bearing shear- quartz vein systems were provided to SMGC. The extent of these extrapolations was guided primarily by geological interpretation derived from field mapping, supplemented by experience with analogous vein-hosted gold systems. IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE IDENBURG – SIGNIFICANT JORC RESOURCE INCREASE FAR EAST GOLD ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 13 The wireframes were evaluated by SMGC relative to the drillhole database and to maintain a conservative approach, were not extended more than 100 metres beyond the limits of supporting drillhole data (Figure 5). Figure 5: CrosssectionofSua mineralisation wireframe showing drillholes and grade grade distribution North Bermol Prospect Gold mineralisation at North Bermol occurs in association of structurally deformed quartz veins ± sulphides contained within what FEG interprets as a laterally extensive, low-angle (10 degrees) thrust fault shear zone. The shear zone is characterised by intense ductile deformation of metadiorite and metabasalt and is best developed along lithological contacts. The vein geometry has been modelled as an elongated mineralised body aligned with the majority structural NE trend and shallow NE and SW dip recognised in the data. The quartz veins vary in thickness from a few millimetres up to 3 metres. The quartz veining is associated with a shear zone along the ductile-brittle deformation and are mineralised with gold and sulphides. Wireframes were constructed to represent the interpreted geometry of the gold-bearing quartz veins at the North Bermol Prospect (Figure 6). The models were developed primarily from available drilling data and extended along strike and down dip to reflect the interpreted continuity of mineralisation. These extensions were guided by geological interpretation, including observed vein orientations and continuity within the drill dataset, supported by analogues from comparable vein-hosted systems. A conservative modelling approach was applied, whereby wireframes were not extrapolated more than 100 metres beyond the limits of supporting drillhole data. IDENBURG – SIGNIFIC
