Highlights:
83.8 metres of 1.31 g/t AuEq (0.90 g/t gold and 22.61 g/t silver), including:
7.6 metres of 8.34 g/t AuEq (6.97 g/t gold and 75.42 g/t silver)
51.8 metres of 1.16 g/t AuEq (0.70 g/t gold and 25.59 g/t silver), including:
19.8 metres of 2.99 g/t AuEq (1.93 g/t gold and 58.01 g/t silver)

6.1 metres of 3.71 g/t AuEq (3.60 g/t gold and 5.98 g/t silver)
The results extend the Contention system by 255 metres to over 1,250 metres of continuously drilled strike length, with high-grade mineralisation at both ends and the system remaining open to the north.
Results are expected to feed into the company's previously announced maiden mineral resource estimate for the project, targeted for the fourth quarter.
