Mineralisation over 3km strike at Red Setter

Wishbone Gold Plc (AIM and AQSE: WSBN) wishes to remind shareholders of the Company's RNS dated 4 December 2023 which outlined the fact that gold and copper mineralisation was found in its 2023 drilling program at its Red Setter Gold Project located 20km south-west of the Telfer gold mine.

The current drill program, with two rigs in operation, has been designed to test new targets and follow up previous identified mineralisation. Wishbone recently announced results from its second diamond drill hole drill which intersected multiple zones of brecciation and alteration with sulphide mineralisation starting at around 520m. To ensure that all potential copper gold intercepts around the shallower diorite dyke are covered, the Company is, as previously announced, using a Schramm RC rig to complement the work of the diamond drill rig. Latest activity is focused on diamond drilling at hole 4 after the reverse circulation rig dug the hole to the required depth.

Wishbone continues to work closely with Core Drilling Services and ALS Laboratories in Perth to assess the samples recently collected from holes 1, 2 and 3 at Red Setter and findings will be announced in due course.

The results reported in December 2023 confirmed that a significant gold and copper system was defined with a mineralised strike over 3km.

Mineralisation over 3km strike at Red Setter

Wishbone Gold Plc (AIM and AQSE: WSBN) announces an update on the results of this year's exploration programme and updated modelling efforts at its Red Setter prospect located in the Paterson Range in Western Australia.

The results confirm a significant gold system with a mineralised strike over 3km.

The first stage of drilling six holes (as referred to in the announcement of 12 October) to target depths of 400m-500m has been completed. The holes have been pre-collared to depths up to 342 metres with reverse circulation (RC) drilling; the RC rig has now been demobilised. These holes will be completed to their final target depth with a diamond drill rig, with this second stage of the drill programme expected to take place next year.

When these holes have reached their target depths they will be testing new geophysics targets from airborne MMT, ground ANT and IP surveys completed earlier this year (Figure 1). The holes have been drilled across a domal structure interpreted by Expert Geophysics to be an analogous structural setting to the world class Telfer Dome Cu-Au system, located only 10km to the north-east of Red Setter. 

Select drill holes will now be used for diamond tails and Wishbone's geophysical consultants remain expectant on their targets.

Richard Poulden, Wishbone Gold's Chairman, commented: "Considering Telfer is one of the largest gold mines in Australia and has an average gold grade of only 0.5g/t, our experienced consultant geologists are saying that Red Setter looks highly promising as a gold project of real potential scale and size with mineralisation now encountered over a 3km strike. We look forward to continuing this drill programme once the diamond drill rigs mobilise to site next year."

The modelling of last year's drill program (as originally announced on 12 December 2022) shows some high-grade intersected close to surface mineralisation within wide lower grade intercepts over a strike length of over 3km, (Figure 1) including:

· 18m @ 0.49g/t Au and 0.004% Cu from 308m in WRSDD0015Including 5m at 1.2g/t Au and 0.002% Cu from 319m

· 1m @ 3.73 g/t Au and 0.1% Cu from 191m in WRSDD0015

· 14m at 1.0g/t Au and 0.2% Cu from 266m in WRSDD0008Including 7m at 2g/t Au and 0.38% Cu from 273mAnd 1m at 6.4g/t Au and 0.69% Cu from 273m

· 25m at 0.28g/t Au and 0.11% Cu from 195m in WRSDD0006 Including 1m at 5.4g/t Au and 0.26% Cu from 198m

· 3m at 0.18g/t Au and 0.82% Cu from 166m in WRSDD0006 Including 1m at 0.27 g/t Au and 2.27% Cu from 166m

· 1m at 6.48g/t Au and 15 ppm Cu from 246m in WRSDD0009

· 10m at 0.48g/t Au and 0.03% Cu from 117m in WRSDD0011Including 1m at 3.2g/t Au and 0.06% Cu from 122m

Results in drilling to date have shown minor silicification and veining with trace sulphides. Minor elevated Cu to 949ppm was returned in 23RSRC006 at 147m which may be related to the hydrothermal system intersected last year to the immediate north of this drilling.

The mineralised intersections to date are spatially related to a dioritic intrusive although the connection between the intrusive and the mineralisation is still being determined. The veining consisted mainly of quartz, pyrite and chalcopyrite with some carbonate. The veining is similar to the ore at Telfer where the combination of bedding concordant reef veins and discordant veins have produced a very large gold copper system (>30Moz). The extensive zone of hydrothermal activity including wide zones of vein stockworks is highly encouraging. There are also strong similarities with the structural settings, with large anticlinal and domal structures present that can focus the hydrothermal fluids. The cover in the area which is mostly in the range of 50-100m depth means that the full understanding of these systems requires good geological management and a systematic approach. 

The timing of the follow-up second phase diamond drilling programme at Red Setter will be announced prior to commencement early next year. This year was a late start to the drilling campaign following a cyclone in April that passed directly over the project. The first priority for the year was the RC drilling of the new geophysics targets to the south (Figure 1) and with the extensive drilling at Cottesloe still underway, it was not possible to complete any further drilling at Red Setter.
