High Grade surface silver results up to 920g/t Ag recorded ~300m to the north and ~150m to the south of Elizabeth Hill mineralisation

Errawarra Resources Ltd (ASX: ERW) is pleased to advise that recent surface sampling at its Elizabeth Hill Project has returned multiple elevated portable XRF (pXRF) silver (Ag) readings including high grade results up to 920g/t Ag.


HIGHLIGHTS:

  • pXRF surface sampling has returned multiple high-grade silver (Ag) results up to 920g/t
  • Gossanous and ferruginous float has generated new potential Silver (Ag) target areas nearby the historic Elizabeth Hill mine
  • High Grade readings have been recorded ~300m to the north and ~150m to the south of the known Elizabeth Hill mineralisation envelope and correlate with the location of the Munni Munni Fault system
  • Samples returning elevated Ag readings are typically from iron-rich, gossanous-like material
  • Further exploration now planned, including trenching, additional sampling and metal detecting
  • Inaugural drilling program to commence in coming weeks
  • Samples collected have been dispatched to the laboratory for further analytical testing with results expected in 6-8 weeks

Several pXRF silver target locations have been identified across the project area, with 37 surface samples returning elevated silver results of greater than 50g/t Ag, including areas approximately 150m south of the historic Elizabeth Hill mine site and approximately 300m north of the mine, including a highest recorded silver value of 920g/t Ag.

Executive Director Bruce Garlick commented:

“This is an extremely exciting observation by our field team. The identification of high-grade silver values in areas north and south of the historic mine presents compelling new targets. We will now focus further field work in these areas to determine the potential for extensions to the known mineralisation. Coupled with our upcoming drilling program, due to commence in the coming weeks, this once again highlights the significant exploration potential at Elizabeth Hill.”

The high-grade silver results (>50g/t Ag) are typically associated with iron-rich, gossanous-like float material, which may be indicative of mineralised extensions to the known system.

Further work is now planned to investigate these encouraging areas, including:

1. Additional surface sampling;

2. Metal detector surveys to identify more material in the vicinity; and

3. Targeted trenching to identify potential mineralised structures at surface.

The samples collected have been dispatched to the lab for analytical testing with assay results expected in 6-8 weeks.

The Company cautions that while pXRF readings provide a useful indication of mineral content and approximate grades, they are not a substitute for laboratory-derived assay grades. All samples will be sent to an independent laboratory for accurate analysis, with assay results expected in 6-8 weeks. Portable XRF results reported in this announcement are considered semi-qualitative.

Errawarra will continue to update the market as further exploration results become available.

Editor's Picks: Silver Price Hits 13 Year High, Gold Takes a Breather

Gold was on the decline this week, closing just below US$3,370 per ounce, after tensions in the Middle East pushed it past the US$3,430 level toward the end of last week.

All eyes were on the US Federal Reserve, which in a widely expected move left interest rates unchanged on Wednesday (June 18) following its two day meeting. The central bank cut rates in December 2024, but has kept them steady for its last four gatherings.

US President Donald Trump wasn't pleased, calling Powell "too late" in a Thursday (June 19) post on Truth Social. While speculation that Trump will fire Powell has died down, the president did recently say he intends to announce his next pick for the Fed leader position "very soon."

10 Silver ETFs for Every Investing Style in 2025

Investors looking for exposure to the silver price and silver-mining companies should consider silver exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Spurred by moves in the gold market, safe haven buying as well as increasing demand from industrial sectors, silver saw strong price movements in the first half of 2025, breaching US$37 per ounce for the first time since 2011.

While silver has often been seen as a more approachable precious metal owing to its lower per ounce price, its performance has lagged gains seen in the gold price over the past few years. However, silver stole some of the spotlight in the second quarter of 2025 as it saw significant gains on the back of geopolitical tension and economic uncertainty from the US trade and tariff policy.

Like gold, investors can gain exposure to silver in several ways that each offer their own pros and cons, along with differing costs and risks. For example, investors can purchase physical silver bars or coins, or invest in silver futures.

Silver Price Surges to US$37, Highest Value Since May 2011

After being overshadowed by gold early in the year, silver has been in the spotlight in recent weeks.

The white metal broke through the US$37 per ounce mark on Tuesday (June 17) for the first time since May 2011.

Recent economic and geopolitical events have raised analysts’ expectations of a September rate cut from the US Federal Reserve, helping to fuel safe-haven buying of silver and gold.
