Resource Upgrade Potential at Risk as Final Assays Awaited at Triumph

Drilling Success at Triumph

Dart Mining NL has announced promising results from its ongoing diamond drilling campaign at the Triumph Gold Project in Queensland. The company completed 12 drill holes totaling 1,906 meters, with assay results available for the first 10 holes. These results have unveiled nine new mineralised zones adjacent to the existing resource areas of New Constitution and South Constitution.

The intercepts include notable high-grade gold assays such as 10.5 meters at 2.63 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) with accompanying silver and zinc, and narrower intervals with grades exceeding 7 g/t Au. These findings not only confirm known mineralised structures but also reveal parallel lodes on both the hanging wall and footwall sides, suggesting a more complex and extensive mineral system than previously understood.

Implications for Resource Classification and Mining

The current Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at Triumph stands at approximately 150,000 ounces of gold classified as Inferred. Dart Mining aims to upgrade a portion of this to Indicated classification, which would provide greater confidence for economic assessments and mining studies. The discovery of multiple stacked lodes could improve mining economics by potentially reducing strip ratios in open pit scenarios and supporting underground mining options at depth.

Chairman James Chirnside highlighted the significance of these results, emphasizing the potential scale of the intrusion related gold system (IRGS) at Triumph. The company is preparing a high-quality Exploration Target statement expected within the next few months, which will articulate the project's broader potential and guide future drilling strategies.

Geological Context and Exploration Strategy

The gold mineralisation at Triumph is hosted within quartz-sulphide veins associated with pyrite and arsenopyrite, typical of IRGS deposits. The project area features complex intrusive geology with multiple phases of alteration, which Dart is leveraging to refine its exploration model. The presence of base metals such as zinc alongside high-grade gold intercepts is helping to identify structurally complex zones that may host additional mineralisation.

Looking ahead, Dart plans to extend drilling to depths of up to 450 meters beneath the Southern Mineralised Corridor and test geophysical anomalies to the northwest of New Constitution. Regional exploration will also target bulk tonnage and deeper targets, while the company continues to evaluate acquisition and joint venture opportunities in Central Queensland.

Environmental and Regulatory Considerations

The Triumph Gold Project is situated near environmentally sensitive areas, including a National Park. Dart Mining has secured the necessary Environmental Authority approvals to conduct advanced exploration activities up to the park boundary, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements while advancing its exploration program.
