Gold Target Zone Increased with Latest Northern Zone Drilling

25km ESE of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia

Oracle Power PLC (AIM: ORCP), an international project developer, is pleased to announce that it has received the assay results from the recently completed Aircore (AC) drilling programme at the Northern Zone Intrusive Hosted Gold Project, located 25 km east of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia (refer to Figure 1 for location).

Highlights:

o 27 Aircore (AC) holes drilled to blade refusal have successfully more than doubled the prospective gold system, by tagging basement geology at the Northern Zone Gold Project. Assay results are set out in Appendix 1 below.

o The AC drilling targeted the oxide zone to fresh rock stratigraphy with the aim of expanding the mineralised porphyry footprint, which remains open.

o Further targeted drilling is being planned over the expanded footprint of the mineralised porphyry.

o Riversgold Limited is fully funded to promptly begin the next phase of drilling operations at Northern Zone.

o A drilling rig has been contracted for the middle of August 2024.

o Northern Zone Gold Project is 25km east of Kalgoorlie.

o Previously announced Exploration Target at Northern Zone Gold Project of 200Mt - 250Mt at a grade of 0.4 g/t Au - 0.6 g/t Au for an Exploration Target of 2.5Moz - 4.8Moz of gold.[1] 

Naheed Memon, CEO of Oracle, commented:

"Immediately after receiving the results from the recent, successful RC drill programme at the Northern Zone Project near Kalgoorlie, these AC results indicate that we have now more than doubled the porphyry footprint, with the full extent of these porphyries yet to be fully delineated. The vertical AC drill holes, strategically targeted near-surface supergene mineralisation in areas distinct from previous diamond and RC drill sites within the oxide and fresh rock interface, revealed new target zones to the north and south of our existing RC and diamond drilling locations. A new drill programme is expected to start in mid-August 2024 to infill supergene zones identified with the last round of drilling. We look forward to resuming drilling operations shortly with the view of testing and further expanding this large porphyry system."

The drilling contractor, Australian Aircore Drilling, completed the 1,772m AC drilling at the Northern Zone Project using a blade to drilling refusal, with the cuttings being logged by Riversgold Limited's geologists. The detailed logging and assays continue to show that a gold mineralisation event has occurred in the project area. The drilling aimed to expand the potential for supergene gold mineralisation and increase its spatial coverage across the project site. Mineralisation remains open in multiple directions, necessitating further testing of basement geology in future drilling campaigns. Refer to Figure 2 for drilling locations, and Tables 1-3 for location and assay results.
