Iceni Hits Spectacular High- Grade Vein At Everleigh

Iceni Gold Limited (ASX: ICL) (Iceni or the Company) is pleased to provide a further exploration update on the Everleigh Well Target Area.


Highlights

  • A number of very high-grade rock chip assay results have returned from the outcropping gold bearing vein in the Christmas Gift UFF+ anomaly 14UF010B at Everleigh Well, these include:
    • 18,207g/t Au 18,179g/t Au 16,776g/t Au 16,659g/t Au 14,780g/t Au
  • The high-grade vein is located within a cluster of gold prospectivity indicators and is hosted by altered sediments with boxworks after sulphides.
  • Fieldwork is ongoing to track the extent of this vein along strike.
  • The Everleigh target area will be prepared for future exploration drilling.
Technical Director David Nixon commented:

“Assay results from the discovery of the second outcropping quartz vein with visible gold in the Everleigh target

area are exciting, as they back up the initial field observations that reported visible gold in outcrop.

The high-grade rock chip results from the vein are supported by the underlying UFF+ soil anomaly, prospectivity indicators (including gold nuggets, workings and anomalous geochemical assays) and the multiple coincident targets generated by existing exploration work.

The Everleigh Well target area continues to deliver in-situ gold bearing rock chips and significant numbers of various sized gold nuggets, where a number of key targets will be prepared for future exploration drilling”.

Christmas Gift

A second high-grade vein has been discovered at Everleigh within the 14UF010B target. The quartz vein was outcropping and contained abundant visible gold associated with boxworks after sulphides. The vein is associated with a cluster of historic workings and scrapings. Gold assays from this high-grade vein are summarised in Table 1, the peak assay returned 18,207g/t Au.

Prospecting activity has also recovered gold nuggets across the Everleigh Well target area. The nuggets found near the vein are angular and show little or no signs of transport. The presence of significant numbers of gold nuggets at surface supports the UFF+, rock chip and drilling results within these prospects.

The Christmas Gift target at Everleigh Well is a multi-element UFF anomaly (14UF010B), coincident with targets E1 (geological), EW01 (geophysical) and SY43 (syenite target).

Fieldwork is ongoing tracking this second high-grade vein along strike in preparation for future exploration drilling.

Editor's Picks: Gold Price Breaks US$3,400, Silver Added to Draft US Critical Minerals List

The gold price was on the rise this week, breaking through US$3,400 per ounce once again.

It's been pushed higher by US dollar weakness, as well as Federal Reserve turmoil.

President Donald Trump has been pressuring Fed Chair Jerome Powell to cut interest rates for months, and on Monday (August 25) the situation developed further when Trump posted a letter on his social media platform Truth Social. In it, he said he was removing Lisa Cook from her position on the central bank's board of governors due to allegations of mortgage fraud.

Top 5 Canadian Mining Stocks This Week: Trifecta Shines with 117 Percent Gain

Welcome to the Investing News Network's weekly look at the best-performing Canadian mining stocks on the TSX, TSXV and CSE, starting with a round-up of Canadian and US news impacting the resource sector.

Statistics Canada released its second-quarter gross domestic product (GDP) figures on Friday (August 29). The data showed that the Canadian economy shrank 0.4 percent in the second quarter and declined 1.6 percent on an annualized basis. The decrease comes following first-quarter gains of 0.5 percent and a 2 percent annualized increase.

Much of the decrease was attributed to a 7.5 percent drop in exports compared to Q1. Canadian exports had risen 1.4 percent in the first three months of the year as US companies increased imports to get ahead of incoming tariffs.Excluding the lower costs at the pumps, CPI remained steady at 2.5 percent, the same increase as May and June.

Navigating Uncertainty: How Trump's Tariffs Are Affecting the Gold Market

The gold price has been on the rise in 2025 as a slew of factors work in its favor.

Central bank buying has long been a key point of support, as has escalating conflict in the Middle East and elsewhere. A newer addition is tariff tensions as the Trump administration fleshes out trade policies.

The gold price has benefited from safe-haven demand amid the turmoil, but concerns that the yellow metal itself might face tariffs have also impacted the sector as industry insiders react to uncertainty.
