NEWS RELEASE | 14 November 2023
Drilling commences at 100% owned Ernest Giles Project
Co-funded diamond core drilling to test the high priority
Meadows gold prospect
Greatland Gold plc (AIM:GGP) (Greatland or the Company) is
pleased to advise that drilling has commenced at the Meadows gold
prospect within the Ernest Giles Project (Ernest Giles).
Highlights
-- Ernest Giles is an underexplored Archean greenstone belt
which lies within the highly mineralised Yilgarn Craton of Western
Australia
-- A drill rig is on site and has commenced diamond core
drilling at the highly prospective Meadows gold prospect
-- Heritage surveys and mobilisation was completed safely and
quickly following entry into the Ernest Giles Land Access Agreement
(LAA) in September 2023
-- First two diamond holes will test interpreted mineralised
zones and are co-funded by the Government of Western Australia's
Exploration Incentive Scheme (EIS) drilling grant for up to
A$220,000 (GBP115,000)
-- Current drilling builds on previous work at Ernest Giles and
will provide important geological and structural information to
inform a systematic reverse circulation drill program in 2024
Greatland Managing Director, Shaun Day, commented:
"We are very pleased to be drilling the high priority Meadows
gold prospect at Ernest Giles following conclusion of the Land
Access Agreement."
"Ernest Giles sits within an underexplored greenstone belt
located north of the world-class Tropicana and Gruyere gold
operations. As a 100% owned project, Ernest Giles represents an
excellent exploration opportunity for Greatland and our
shareholders."
Overview of the Ernest Giles Project
The Ernest Giles Project is located approximately 250km
north-east of the town of Laverton and covers a folded belt of
magnetic greenstone rocks ( Figure 1 ) which is typical of the
highly gold and nickel endowed parts of the Archean Goldfields of
Western Australia. The Goldfields host large gold camps such as
Kalgoorlie, St Ives, Leonora, Laverton, Mt Magnet, Jundee, Gruyere
and Tropicana. The prospective greenstone sequence at Ernest Giles
does not outcrop and is therefore underexplored relative to the
remainder of the Goldfields.
Greatland's granted and under-application tenure at Ernest Giles
comprises a comprehensive holding over what Greatland considers to
be the most prospective near surface portions of the Ernest Giles
belt, covering more than 1,950km(2) .

Current drilling program
Previous exploration at Ernest Giles included a program of
62,800m spaced vertical RC drillholes, largely focused on the
Meadows prospect, in addition to airborne magnetics and ground
gravity surveys.
Gold mineralisation and anomalism is hosted within altered mafic
volcanic, banded iron formation (BIF) and syenite. The mafic is
pyrite and albite altered with thin quartz veinlets. Hematite
alteration has also been observed. The syenite comprises
disseminated pyrite and may be hematite altered.
Results returned previously included a peak of 16m @ 0.36g/t Au
from 182m downhole including 3m @ 1.28g/t Au in hole ERC011. Table
1 in Appendix 1 sets out all significant results.
The two EIS co-funded diamond core drill holes will provide the
first angled diamond holes and oriented core at Meadows, considered
critical for the geological understanding of the project.
Drill hole EG_Prop_1 targets two mineralised zones within the
previous vertical RC hole ERC011 which returned values +1g/t Au
(Appendix 1, Table 1 ) in mafic rock ( Figure 4 ).
Drill hole EG_Prop_2 targets the interpreted syenite (intrusive
granitoid) body intersected in ERC014 which returned 18m @ 0.11g/t
Au (Appendix 1, Table 1 ).
In addition, the drilling is planned to:
-- confirm gold mineralisation and anomalism intersected in
previous RC drilling and test for continuity down dip;
-- provide geological and structural information to understand
the setting and nature of gold mineralisation;
-- investigate a larger section across strike than has been
possible with vertical drillholes;
-- identify pathfinders for mineralisation; and
-- be utilised as a platform for downhole geophysics should it
be viable.

geology
Further work
Additional ongoing work will include airborne geophysics to
better understand the geology of the entire Ernest Giles belt. A
follow up RC drilling program will be designed utilising the
knowledge gained from the current drilling, to systematically
target the best results of all drilling at Meadows to date. This
work will commence in the 2024 calendar year.

About Greatland
Greatland is a mining development and exploration company
focused primarily on precious and base metals.
The Company's flagship asset is the world-class Havieron
gold-copper project in the Paterson Province of Western Australia,
discovered by Greatland and presently under development in joint
venture with world gold major, Newmont Corporation.
Havieron is located approximately 45km east of Newmont's
existing Telfer gold mine. The box cut and decline to the Havieron
orebody commenced in February 2021. Total development now exceeds
2,820m including over 2,030m of advance in the main access decline
(as at 8 October 2023). Subject to a positive feasibility study and
Decision to Mine, Havieron is intended to leverage the existing
Telfer infrastructure and processing plant. Access to Telfer will
de-risk the development and reduces capital expenditure.
Greatland has a proven track record of discovery and exploration
success and is pursuing the next generation of tier-one mineral
deposits by applying advanced exploration techniques in
under-explored regions. Greatland has a number of exploration
projects across Western Australia and in parallel to the
development of Havieron is focused on becoming a multi-commodity
miner of significant scale.
