Colosseum Delivers More High Grade Gold Intercepts

Dateline Resources Limited (ASX:DTR) (Dateline or the Company) is pleased to announce further significant gold values from drilling results at the Colosseum Gold Mine in California. The Company currently has a diamond and RC rig operating in the south pit undertaking infill and extensional drilling.


Highlights

  • Results received from diamond and reverse circulation (RC) drilling within the south pit, comprising infill and extensional drilling
  • Final results from diamond drillhole CM24-16 received, increasing the intercept from 88m to 104.7m:
    • 104.7m @ 3.65g/t Au from 77.23m
      • Incl. 12.2m @ 8.40g/t Au from 108.81m
    • 12.8m @ 2.18g/t Au from 208.17m
  • First results from the RC program have been received, with the following significant results:
    • RC24-003 25.9m @ 1.91g/t Au from 57.91m
      • Incl. 3.05m @ 3.05g/t Au from 57.91m
    • RC24-004 3.05m @ 1.92g/t Au from 86.86m 3.05m @ 2.95g/t Au from 94.48m
    • RC24-008 74.7m @ 4.27g/t Au from 77.72m
      • Incl. 27.4m @ 7.82g/t Au from 88.39m
  • Updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) underway, with an expected release in early June to be followed by mining studies

Diamond drillhole CM24-16 was first reported in April 2024, with assays returned for the upper portion of the hole (88m @ 4.18g/t Au). The hole was extended to ensure that it finished outside of the sedimentary breccia, with recent assays extending the intersection to 104.7m @ 3.65g/t Au.

The RC drill rig is focused on infill drilling and testing the margins of the existing Mineral Resource. Significant results received to date include 74.7m @ 4.27g/t Au and 25.9m @ 1.92g/t Au.

The Mineral Resource update is currently underway. Results from CM24-16 will be included in this update, however the RC results will be included in a subsequent update later in the year.

Commenting on the study, Managing Director, Stephen Baghdadi, stated:

“These drill hole results are further confirmation that the Colosseum project has delivered consistent gold grades in a wide zone.

 “With the updated MRE expected in the next few weeks, we plan to move quickly to determining a mine plan to extract value for our shareholders.”

Drilling Results

Following a scheduled break, the drill crews returned to site and continued drilling within the south pit at Colosseum. The aim of the diamond drilling program is to extend the mineralised zone at depth, below the existing Mineral Resource, whilst the RC program is undertaking infill work as well as better defining the margins of mineralisation.

The RC drilling intersected mineralisation within the sedimentary and felsite breccia units in RC24-003 and RC24-004. Both holes intersected mineralization in more sulphide rich zones containing pyrite, sphalerite, and/or galena >5%.

Bert Dohmen: Gold, Silver Key as Stock Market Bull Trap Looms

Bert Dohmen, founder and CEO of Dohmen Capital Research, sees physical gold and silver as key safe havens as a potential bull trap in the broad stock market plays out.

"We said we're probably going to go to a new high in a major, widely watched index like the S&P 500 (INDEXSP:.INX). It's going to be by a small amount a new high, and that's going to close the bull trap," he said.

Top 5 ASX Gold Stocks of 2025

Gold continued to perform well through the second quarter of 2025, reaching a new all-time high of AU$5,425 per ounce on April 22.

The price surge has occurred amid volatile equity and financial markets since the start of the year, driven by concerns over a global trade war and escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

The rising gold price has also been supported by uncertainty over a looming debt crisis in the United States. Some investors have turned away from dollar-denominated haven assets, such as US Treasuries, in favour of precious metals like gold.
