Breaker Resources NL (ASX:BRB, Breaker, or the Company) is pleased to advise that it has now received the results from the last five holes (or wedges) drilled at as part of its resource development program which completed in late December 2022 at Bombora, targeting various lodes beneath the prospective Bombora open pit at its Lake Roe Gold Project.

Again, the results validate the predictability, interpretation and grade continuity of the lode structures applied during resource estimation. The drilling successfully intersected various lodes beneath the future open pit which are the subject of underground mining studies. The results will enable a future upgrade from inferred to indicated categorisation but more importantly validate the integrity of the inferred estimates completed so far on 80m spaced drill lines.

Best results include:

0.8m @ 28.8 g/t gold from 388.62m in BBDD0162 (est. true width = 0.55m)
8.95m @ 2.44 g/t gold from 415.05m in BBDD0162 (est. true width = 6.26m)
6m @ 5.51 g/t gold from 596m in BBDD0162 (est. true width = 4.20m)
2.65m @ 4.27 g/t gold from 484m in BBDD0162 (est. true width = 1.86m)
0.45m @ 30.6 g/t gold from 292.45m in BBDD0164 (est. true width = 0.32m)
3.00m @ 6.50 g/t gold from 472m in BBDD0164 (est. true width = 2.70m)
1.2m @ 8.93 g/t gold from 478m in BBDD0164W1 (est. true width = 1.08m)
5.68m @ 5.81 g/t gold from 115.32m in BBDD0166 (est. true width = 5.10m)

Breaker’s CEO, Sam Smith said

“It’s great we can drill holes into our resource model and hit the ore where it was interpreted to be with ore intercepts sometimes better than the global resource estimate. Our underground mining plans are continuously being supported by high grade drill results at Tura and the Northern Flats. Our scoping study for underground mining of the Tura lodes beneath the planned Bombora pit showed strongly positive outcomes from what is just the immediate extensions of the primary structures. Same for the Northern Flats where our scoping studies are nearing completion. The latest round of assays boost our expectations for economic studies and demonstrate that Lake Roe could have a longer mine life from underground mining on completion of the open pits”.

Drill holes BBDD0162, BBDD0164 and BBDD0164W1 targeted the Northern Flats Lodes, which are a series of stacked, shallow north plunging flat lodes with numerous high grade gold shoots located below and north of the future open pit. Each hole was expected to intersect the flat lodes and assays confirmed continuity of mineralisation at economical grades along the structures.

The Northern Flats Lodes, plunging north from the proposed Bombora open pit manifest as stacked flatly dipping narrow, but high-grade lode structures typically 1-3m in thickness. The intersection of these with the NW trending and steeply east-dipping lodes, and the NW trending and west dipping lodes creates elongated corridors where much thicker and higher-grade shoots tend to form.

Drill holes BBDD0161, BBDD0163 and BBDD0166 were targeting the Tura structure, aimed at defining the extent of the internal high grade shoot. Each hole intersected the Tura structure outside of the internal high grade shoot, refining the mineralisation model for mining studies.
