Holes were drilled below the historic Apollo and Gladys mine areas. The project is an epizonal-style gold prospect located 56 kilometres north of Melbourne and contained within 19,365 hectares of granted exploration tenements.Highlights: Diamond drillhole MDDSC0012, the deepest hole and Mawson's best drill result to date at Sunday Creek, was drilled 110 metres vertically below the historic Apollo mine workings and intersected thick and high-grade mineralized intervals over a combined width of 36.4 metres @ 2.4 g/t gold (\"Au\") and 0.4% antimony (\"Sb\") (2.8 g/t gold equivalent (\"AuEQ\")) from 177 metres (without a lower cut) (Tables 1-4, Figures 1 and 2): Better intervals included (lower cut of 0.3 g/t Au cut over 2.0 metre width, with higher grades reported with a 5 g/t Au cut over 1.0 metre):13 metres @ 1.7 g/t Au and 0.14% Sb (1.9 g/t AuEQ) from 177 metresincluding 0.8 metres @ 11.4 g/t Au and 0.9% Sb (12.3 g/t AuEQ) from 178.0 metres 17.7 metres @ 3.7 g/t Au and 0.7% Sb (4.4 g/t AuEQ) from 196.0 metres Including 10.4 metres @ 5.4 g/t Au and 1.0% Sb (6.4 g/t AuEQ) from 203.0 metres 0.2 metres @ 37.3 g/t Au and 12.0% Sb (49.2 g/t AuEQ) from 207.0 metres and 2.2 metres @ 15.8 g/t Au and 3.3% Sb (19.2 g/t AuEQ) from 209.0 metres The high-grade tenor of the epizonal Sunday Creek is now becoming evident with full gold and antimony assays available for all Mawson drill holes for the first time, with the opportunity to develop similar high-grades as seen in adjacent mining operations such as Mandalay Resource's Costerfield mine or Kirkland Lake Gold's Fosterville mine.
