Fountain Head Exploration
Fountain Head Gold Project - 100% owned MLS
Stage 1 - Near-term Gold Production
Background
•
•
•
•
MLS acquired in 2018 to use historic pit void for Hayes Creek sub-aqueous tailings storage; a cornerstone
of the approvals process and capital cost profile of the Hayes Creek Project
Numerous near-surface high-grade gold intersections drilled in 2018
Prompted change in strategy to assess options to monetise gold resources prior to backfilling with tails
Updated Mineral Resource reported in June 2020 (JORC 2012)*:

Indicated Resource
Inferred Resource
Total Resource
1.83 Mt at 1.7 g/t Au for 100,000 oz Au
1.11 Mt at 1.6 g/t Au for 56,000 oz Au
2.94 Mt at 1.7 g/t Au for 156,000 oz Au
Extensional zones of open gold mineralisation over >1.6km strike along the Fountain Head anticline
Potential for additional resource upside from:
areas of open mineralisation beyond the resource envelope
high-grade mineralisation trap sites at junction of x-cutting structures & anticline hinge zones
