High-Grade Drill Results at Mt Stirling and Stirling Well

The recent assay results from GoldArc’s PQ-diameter diamond drilling campaign, conducted in partnership with BML Ventures Pty Ltd, reveal promising high-grade gold intercepts. These include an impressive 5.6 meters at 8.71 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold from a depth of 106.4 meters at Mt Stirling and 6 meters at 3.41 g/t of gold from 11 meters at the same site. Additionally, at the Stirling Well, an exceptional result of 1.57 meters at 14.2 g/t gold from 47 meters was reported.

These results contribute to a broader grade control program that GoldArc has been executing at the Mt Stirling and Stirling Well sites. This program has consistently returned high-grade gold findings, underscoring the continuity and potential of the deposits. The current results are part of the fifth tranche of assays, following an extensive 34,000-meter grade control campaign, with approximately 21,597 meters drilled at earlier stages.

Historical Context and Comparison

GoldArc’s recent drill results further build on a series of successful intercepts reported in prior phases of the drilling campaign. Historically, the company has achieved impressive results, such as 1 meter at 31 g/t gold at Mt Stirling Well. This was later surpassed by a standout interval of 1 meter at 137 g/t gold from 23 meters in the subsequent phase. Other notable intersections have included 2 meters at 13.46 g/t, 2 meters at 9.43 g/t, and 2 meters at 6.31 g/t, all supporting the high-grade continuity narrative.

In addition to these high-grade intercepts, broader intervals have also been reported, such as 17 meters at 3.48 g/t gold and 20 meters at 1.85 g/t gold in the eastern sector, with internal zones featuring grades up to 13.00 g/t gold. These results highlight the significant mineralization potential within the Mt Stirling and Stirling Well areas, reinforcing GoldArc’s strategic objectives for the project.

Strategic Implications and Future Prospects

The sustained high-grade findings at Mt Stirling and Stirling Well offer strategic advantages for GoldArc Resources and its partner, BML Ventures Pty Ltd. These results not only enhance the geological understanding of the project area but also bolster confidence in the continuity of mineralization, vital for future development and potential production activities.

GoldArc has publicly stated its intentions to continue reporting assay results from the ongoing grade control program. The company aims to progress toward production-related work at Mt Stirling Well, leveraging the high-grade continuity to potentially expedite development timelines. The partner-funded arrangement with BML Ventures adds a layer of financial and operational support, allowing for continued exploration and development activities without immediate capital constraints on GoldArc.

As GoldArc Resources advances its exploration efforts at Mt Stirling and Stirling Well, the mining community will closely monitor subsequent results. The project’s strategic location in Western Australia’s prolific gold-producing Leonora district further enhances its attractiveness. In the coming months, stakeholders will be keen to see how GoldArc capitalizes on these promising results to transition from exploration to potential production, contributing to the broader narrative of Western Australia’s gold mining sector.
