Sarama Resources Geochemistry Program Underway at Cosmo Gold Project

First Major Exploration Program in Several Decades on Highly Prospective Cosmo Project with Soil Sampling Designed to Generate Drill Targets

Sarama Resources Ltd. (“Sarama” or the “Company”) (ASX:SRR, TSX- V:SWA) is pleased to advise that it has commenced a multi-stage regional soil-geochemistry program at its majority- owned(1) 580km² Cosmo Gold Project (the “Project”)(2) in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia. The program is the most significant exploration work to be undertaken on the Project in decades and is a foundational stage for drill target generation.

The program follows the Company’s acquisition of a majority and controlling interest in the Project in December 2024 and its agreement to acquire a majority and controlling interest in the nearby Mt Venn Project in January 2025(3). In aggregate, the belt-scale projects will cover approximately 1,000km²(2,3) and +100km of strike-length of greenstone rocks and are well-positioned and underexplored, presenting an exciting opportunity for Sarama in the Laverton Gold District which is known for its prolific gold endowment (refer Figure 1).


Highlights
  • Large-scale soil geochemistry program underway at the Cosmo Project to progress drill targeting
  • Program is the most significant exploration works undertaken on the Project in several decades
  • Initial focus on areas with large-scale structural features and lithological contacts identified in recent interpretation of airborne geophysical datasets
  • Surface grab sampling returned grades up to 52g/t Au(5) in historical exploration within the Project
  • Fieldwork already underway with experienced field crews mobilised; first samples for analysis in 2 weeks
  • Opportunity for recommencement of modern exploration due to changes in land access
  • Follows the recent execution of a non-binding Heads of Agreement to acquire majority interest in belt-scale Mt Venn Project(3)
  • Sarama’s recent acquisitions will create in aggregate a 1,000km² exploration position(2,3) capturing 100km of strike length in underexplored terrane
  • Projects located in the prolific Laverton Gold District, proximal to the producing Gruyere Gold Mine(4)

Sarama’s President, Executive Chairman, Andrew Dinning commented:

“We are very pleased to get exploration underway and bring the belt-scale Cosmo Project to account. Cosmo is genuinely underexplored, has all the geological ingredients to generate a discovery and with core team members that led the discovery of the multi-million ounce Moto and Sanutura(6) Projects in Africa and we look forward to seeing what this project can deliver. Leveraging its position at the Cosmo Project, upon completion of the transaction to acquire a majority interest in the nearby Mt Venn Project, Sarama will have 1,000km2 of highly prospective ground in the prolific Laverton Gold District.”
