January 28, 2025
New Murchison Gold Limited (ASX: NMG) (“NMG” or the “Company”), a Western Australian gold exploration and development Company, is pleased to provide shareholders and investors with an exploration and operations overview to accompany the Appendix 5B for the quarter ending 31 December 2024 (“Quarter” or the “Reporting Period”).
HIGHLIGHTS
Drilling and Estimation
- New very high-grade gold mineralised zones encountered by drilling in the footwall of south eastern zone (SEZ) lodes.
- Infill drilling during the quarter confirmed gold mineralisation modelling and upgraded resource confidence in many areas.
- New Mineral Resource Estimate released showing an increase for the Crown Prince Deposit at Garden Gully with a 3G% increase in the Indicated classification estimate to 226koz at 4.6 g/t gold (Au).
- The total Mineral Resource has grown by 16% from the February 2024 estimate, to 279koz at 3.9 g/t Au.
Pre-development activities
- NMG is close to announcing a detailed Feasibility Study (environmental, social, mining, metallurgy, geotechnical, hydrogeological) to support a robust value proposition for mining Crown Prince.
Westgold Strategic Alliance
- New Murchison Gold and Westgold entered into an Ore Purchase Agreement (OPA) which will underpin production form NMG’s Crown Prince deposit near Meekatharra, Western Australia in 2025.
- Subject to final regulatory permitting, under the OPA, NMG will commence mining from a new open pit operation at Crown Prince with a targeted commencement date of mid-2025.
Corporate
- Cash balance of $2.749 million cash at the end of December.
- Following the ongoing exercise of in the money options (March 2025 expiry) cash balance as at 24 January (i.e. the end of the week before this release) was $3.951 million
- Company is well funded to pursue ongoing technical programs and commercialisation options at Crown Prince.
During the Quarter, the Company continued to advance the Crown Prince Project (M51/886) part of NMG’s broader Garden Gully tenure package (Figure 1).
NMG completed resource infill drilling in October 2024 which confirmed mineralised zones and improved gold grades in some areas. These zones are within the conceptual open pit for the Crown Prince deposit and subsequently added to the updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) in November 2024.
The November 2024 updated MRE at the Crown Prince Deposit (Crown Prince) substantially increased the total Mineral Resource by 16% from the February 2024 estimate, to 279koz at 3.9g/t Au. This included a 39% increase in the Indicated classification estimate to 226koz at 4.6g/t Au.
NMG entered into a binding agreement in December 2024 with Big Bell Gold Operations Pty Ltd (BBGO), a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of Westgold Resources Limited (Westgold) in relation to the purchase of gold ore from the Crown Prince deposit.
Commenting on key outcomes for the Quarter, NMG CEO, Alex Passmore said:
“We continued to be very active during the December quarter meeting a number of key milestones for Crown Prince pre-development. The completion of the 2024 drilling program delivered a material increase in the Mineral Resource Estimate at Crown Prince underpinning the detailed feasibility study work underway to advance the Crown Prince Gold Project.
The ore processing agreement with Westgold signed in December is anticipated to deliver significant value for New Murchison Gold and Westgold and we look forward to working collaboratively in it a success.

Gold Price Breaks US$3,700 for First Time as Fed Cuts Rates
The US Federal Reserve held its sixth meeting of 2025 from Tuesday (September 16) to Wednesday (September 17) amid slowing growth in the country's jobs market.
The central bank met analysts’ expectations by lowering the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to the 4 to 4.25 percent range. It marks the first cut of 2025, after holding at the 4.25 to 4.5 percent range since December 2024.
Despite August consumer price index (CPI) data showing inflation rose to 2.9 percent from 2.7 percent in July, a weakening labor market became the focus of the Fed’s dual mandate of stable prices and maximum employment.
“The case for a persistent inflation outbreak is less, and that’s why we think it’s time for us to acknowledge the risks to the other mandate have grown, and we should move in the direction of neutral,” said Chair Jerome Powell.
The most recent US jobs report indicates that August brought an increase of just 22,000 new workers, while the unemployment rate ticked up to 4.3 percent from 4.2 percent in July. Additionally, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which produced the report, announced a downward revision to June’s figures, showing a loss of 13,000 jobs.
Similarly, July’s report, released on August 1, marked a significant weakening in the labor force, bringing the three month average to just 28,000 new jobs after growth of 192,000 in the February to April period.
Following that report, US President Donald Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, suggesting the jobs data was “rigged” to make his administration look bad. Both the slowing American labor market and rising inflation over the past few months have been blamed on the effects of Trump’s tariffs trickling into the economy.
Trump has been critical of the Fed and Powell in particular, saying they haven't moved quickly enough to lower rates.
While he is unable to remove Powell, in August Trump attempted to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook over alleged mortgage fraud stemming from mortgage applications where she listed two homes as principal residences. Recent documents have shown those allegations to be false, and that Cook listed one of the homes as a vacation property.
On Monday (September 15), an appeals court blocked Cook's removal from the Fed's Board of Governors, allowing her to participate in this week’s meeting. Also this week, the Senate confirmed Stephen Miran to the board in a 48 to 47 decision along party lines. He will be replacing Adriana Kugler, who resigned in August.
Miran is on leave from his position at the White House’s Council of Economic Advisers and increases Trump’s influence over the seven member board. The nomination process for a new board member usually lasts months, but Miran’s appointment took just six weeks, allowing him to participate in this week’s meeting.
The gold price rose to a record high of US$3,707.34 per ounce shortly after the decision, but quickly fell back to the US$3,650 level. Silver spiked as high as US$42.24 per ounce following the meeting, still trading near 14 year highs.
Equities were mixed on Wednesday, with the S&P 500 (INDEXSP:INX) losing 0.31 percent to reach 6,586. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq-100 (INDEXNASDAQ:NDX) shed 1.03 percent to come in at 24,036, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (INDEXDJX:DJI) gained 0.5 percent, coming to 45,084.

Prince Silver Commences Fully Funded Drill Program at the Prince Silver Project in Nevada
Prince Silver Corp. (formerly Hawthorn Resources Corp.) (CSE:PRNC)(OTC:PRNCF) ("Prince Silver" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of a fully funded, 6,500-meter exploration drill program at its flagship Prince Silver Project, a past-producing silver-zinc-gold-lead property. The program is designed to expand known high-grade zones, validate historical drilling, and define the broader mineralized system across the property.
Key Highlights:
- 31 RC holes totaling approximately 6,500 meters are planned in this first phase drilling,
- 129 historical holes (16,607 meters) confirm widespread mineralization and high-grade zones.
- The drill program is fully funded following the closing of two recent financings, totalling over $5.25M CAD
Ralph Shearing, President & Director "We're excited to launch this fully funded drill program at the Prince Silver Project, which we believe holds significant untapped potential. Our work will focus on expanding known high-grade zones, testing new areas and validating historical drilling. With approximately 6,500 meters of drilling planned, and mineralization open in all directions, this program marks a key step in defining the broader mineralized system and positioning Prince Silver as a standout silver explorer in Nevada."
2025 Drill Program
The program will consist of approximately 6,500 meters of RC drilling across 31 holes. It is designed to validate historical results, increase confidence in historic unpublished resources estimates, and complete infill and step-out drilling within and surrounding the historic resource area. The goal is to advance the project toward a maiden 43-101 resource estimate by testing potential extensions to know mineralization along strike and to depth. The drill program is being conducted by O'Keefe Drilling Company, headquartered in Butte, MT.
The Prince Silver Project hosts a significant polymetallic carbonate replacement deposit (CRD) and a sediment-hosted gold system, with mineralization that is open in all directions and amenable to open-pit mining and deeper underground mining. The project benefits from shallow, high-grade zones and holds potential for valuable manganese by-products.
Initial assay results from the program will be published as they become available from the laboratories, with ongoing results as the drill program progresses into winter.

PRINCE SILVER PROJECT HISTORIC EXPLORATION
To evaluate the mineral potential of the Prince Project, an exploration target (the "Exploration Target") was outlined in a 2024 independent report prepared following JORC guidelines (JORC standards for the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves.) by OmniGeoX Exploration Consultants of Perth, Australia based on historical surface and underground drilling.
The Exploration Target was based on 129 historic drill holes drilled through mineralized carbonate replacement beds and host Pioche Shale up to 500M depth. Mineralized polymetallic intersections based on historical block modelling suggests the immediate Exploration Target is between 25-43Mt with grades ranging as 1.44-1.57% Zn, 0.78-0.87% Pb, 0.003-0.005% Cu, 0.28-0.40g/t Au, 37-40g/t Ag and 3.62 4.30% Mn. The mineralization is open in all directions.
Readers are cautioned that the Exploration Target is not an "inferred", "indicated" or "measured" mineral resource compliant with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101"). The Exploration Target has been determined based upon 129 historic drill holes totaling 16,606 meters, historic production records including mine level plans and 3D modelling of mineralization and geology. The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the Exploration Target being delineated as a mineral resource.
Previous Drilling & Results
Historical exploration includes 129 drill holes totaling 16,607 meters. Results confirm widespread mineralization and multiple high-grade zones.
*Notable 2014 intercepts:
- 40.8 m @ 0.63 g/t Au, 65 g/t Ag, 1.64% Zn, 3.51% Pb (from 26 m, UDH-55),
- 24.4 m @ 0.47 g/t Au, 80 g/t Ag, 1.64% Zn, 3.52% Pb, (from 87 m, PRC-11)
- 2.4 m @ 11.1 g/t Au, 377 g/t Ag, 26.1% Zn, 4.3% Pb (from 14 m, UDH-53)
Importantly, earlier programs only sporadically assayed the Pioche Shale unit however, where assayed the Pioche Shale returned a number of highly prospective historic results such as,
- 61 m @ 2.1 g/t Au, 38 g/t Ag for (from 69 m, CDH-36)
- 41 m @ 0.7 g/t Au, 68 g/t Ag, 3.3% Zn, 0.61% Pb for (from 26 m, UDH-55)
- 71 m @ 1.4 g/t Au, 51 g/t Ag for (from 192 m, PRC-10)

Key Project
Iron Range Gold Project
The Iron Range Gold Project is Earthwise Minerals’ flagship asset, covering 21,437 hectares in southeastern British Columbia, just northeast of Creston. The property is underlain by the Iron Mountain Fault Zone (IMFZ), a major regional structure within the Purcell Supergroup that also hosts the world-class Sullivan SEDEX deposit. Earthwise controls more than 50 kilometres of strike length along the IMFZ and associated splays. The project benefits from excellent infrastructure, with Highway 3 crossing the property, Canadian Pacific rail access, and nearby BC Hydro power, natural gas, and water. Exploration is further supported by a multi-year area-based (MYAB) permit, allowing trenching, geophysics, road access, and drilling without the need for annual approvals.
A robust exploration dataset underpins the project. A 2004 VTEM survey outlined conductivity trends coincident with the IMFZ, while systematic soil geochemistry defined multi-element anomalies (arsenic, lead, zinc, and gold), including “Sullivan-style” lead-zinc responses within the Lower–Middle Aldridge Contact — a stratigraphic horizon strongly associated with SEDEX mineralization. Induced polarization (IP) surveys completed in 2017 identified a down-plunge chargeability anomaly at the Talon/Canyon Zone. Follow-up drilling in 2018 confirmed this target, returning mineralized intercepts consistent with the geophysical model and demonstrating continuity beneath surface anomalies.
Mineralization styles at Iron Range are polymetallic and diverse, including intermediate-sulphidation epithermal systems with alteration assemblages of silica, K-feldspar, sericite, and carbonate. Mineralization occurs within brittle shear and breccia zones ranging from one metre to several tens of metres wide, spatially associated with the IMFZ and concentrated within approximately 150 metres of the LMC.
Historic drilling at the Talon/Canyon Zone has returned broad and high-grade intercepts, including:
- 56.5 m grading 1.9 g/t gold, 0.44 percent lead, 0.59 percent zinc, and 19.7 g/t silver
- 14.0 m grading 5.1 g/t gold, 1.86 percent lead, 2.1percent zinc, and 75.3 g/t silver
- 2.0 m grading 12.8 g/t gold, 4.18 percent lead, 5.06 percent zinc, and 122.5 g/t silver (drill hole IR10-010)
Mineralization remains open along strike and at depth, with overlapping geophysical and geochemical vectors indicating potential for parallel or offset mineralized shoots. Earthwise’s 2025 exploration program is focused on detailed structural mapping, systematic geochemical sampling, and expanded IP surveys to refine 3D chargeability and resistivity models, helping to de-risk future drill targeting. A Phase 1 drill campaign (~2,500 metres) is scheduled for 2026 to test down-plunge extensions of the Talon/Canyon Zone and evaluate additional parallel structures.
Under the option agreement with Eagle Plains Resources, Earthwise can earn a 70 percent interest over four years through staged cash, share and exploration commitments. An additional 10 percent interest (to 80 percent) can be acquired for a $1-million cash payment within 120 days of vesting at 70 percent. Eagle Plains retains a 1 percent NSR on part of the property. This represents a low-cost entry relative to the more than $8 million of historical work already completed, allowing Earthwise to direct capital toward geophysics and drilling rather than re-establishing baseline exploration.
The emphasis on geophysics is strategic. In structurally complex belts where mineralization occurs in breccia, veins and disseminated sulphides, IP surveys are a proven, cost-effective discriminator. They can identify disseminated to semi-massive sulphides, distinguish mineralized from barren host rocks, and provide depth slices for 3D geological modelling. When integrated with legacy VTEM, geochemical surveys and drill data, modern IP provides the most efficient pathway to precise, high-value drilling designed to answer key questions of geometry, grade distribution and vectoring within the system.

Newmont Withdraws from Mount Coolon Joint Venture, GBM Regains Full Ownership
GBM Resources (ASX:GBZ) announced it has regained ownership of the Mount Coolon gold project in Queensland following Newmont’s (TSX:NEM,NYSE:NEM,ASX:NEM) termination of a 2022 farm-in agreement.
GBM made the deal with Newcrest Mining before that company was acquired by Newmont in 2023.
Newmont's withdrawal is part of its focus on divesting non-core assets to hone in on its more profitable and stable tier one operations. The company has made substantial adjustments to its portfolio this year.
GBM reacted positively to Monday's (September 15) news, saying that regaining full ownership of the project aligns with its strategy to build a leading gold portfolio in the Drummond Basin.
“We are excited to regain 100 percent ownership, and our exploration team are enthusiastic about getting on the ground as we see significant upside on the Mt Coolon Tenure,” commented CEO Daniel Hastings.
Located within the Drummond Basin and near GBM’s Twin Hills and Yandan projects, Mount Coolon has a JORC resource of 6.65 million tonnes at 1.54 grams per tonne gold for 330,000 ounces of the metal.
Together, Twin Hills and Yandan hold a total resource of 1.84 million ounces of gold.
“With Twin Hills and Yandan nearby, we now control a substantial area of highly prospective ground within the Drummond Basin which provides GBM with the scale and flexibility to unlock significant value," Hastings added.
Newmont also announced the sale of its Coffee project in Yukon, Canada, to Fuerte Metals (TSXV:FMT,OTCQB:FUEMF) on Monday for potential total consideration of US$150 million. The company said that sale was also part of its efforts to streamline its portfolio and sharpen its focus on core operations.
On September 10, Newmont said it plans to voluntarily delist from the Toronto Stock Exchange.
