The results included a gold intersection of 40.5m at 1.2 g/t gold. The drilling programme at Clay Lake was announced by the Company on 8 February 2023 and is being carried out in conjunction with the Company’s joint venture partner, Demir Export A.?.\n The results are from the first drill hole of a planned eight hole, two thousand metre drill programme on the Derryhennet section of the Company’s Clay Lake gold target in Co. Armagh. The drill hole was located c.200 metres to the south-west of the nearest previous drill hole in this area which intersected 52.5 metres of gold grading 0.5g/t gold (announced by the Company on 1 November 2018). \n The drill hole was drilled to a downhole depth of 212.7 metres at an inclination of -60 degrees. Gold mineralisation of 40.5 metres was intersected in a stockwork zone at a downhole depth of 135.5 metres. The intersection indicates good continuity of the gold stockwork zone at Derryhennet and adds further to our understanding and knowledge of the overall potential scale of the Clay Lake gold target.\n Drill Hole Intersections:\n • 40.5m @ 1.2 g/t Au from 135.5m\n Including 11.5m @ 1.6g/t Au from 155.5m\n • 1.0m @ 0.3 g/t Au from 113.0m\n • 1.0m @ 0.4 g/t Au from 91.0m\n • 1.0m @ 0.5 g/t Au from 85.0m\n • 0.5m @ 1.4 g/t Au from 64.5m\n • 2.0m @ 1.1 g/t Au from 50.5m\n (Only intercepts of 0.3 g/t or greater are presented)\n The Clay Lake gold target forms a single large gold-in-soil anoma...
