[{"type":"text","content":"Southern Cross Gold Drills 559 Metres @ 2.1 g/t Gold (Uncut) Traversing 16 Vein SetsIncludes: 7th highest intercept on project - 1.3 m @ 670 g/t Gold Best antimony intercept - 0.16 m @ 65.9% Sb (plus 78.5 g/t Gold)Vancouver, Canada and Melbourne, Australia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 28, 2026) - Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd (TSX: SXGC) (ASX: SX2) (OTCQX: SXGCF) (FSE: MV3) (\"SXGC\", \"SX2\" or the \"Company\") announces results from four drillholes from the Rising Sun prospect at the 100%-owned Sunday Creek Gold-Antimony Project in Victoria (Figures 1 to 6). SDDSC196 intersected sixteen vein sets in Rising Sun across a +500 m mineralised corridor from 376 m to 936 m downhole which averaged 559 m @ 2.5 g/t AuEq (2.1 g/t Au and 0.2% Sb) uncut. The hole returned six intervals greater than 20 g/t AuEq, including three individual assays exceeding 100 g/t Au. Highlights include 1.3 m @ 670.4 g/t AuEq (670.2 g/t Au, 0.1% Sb) from 869.2 m - the 7th highest intercept on the project - and the highest individual antimony assay to date at 0.16 m @ 65.9% Sb (plus 78.5 g/t Au) from 445.9 m.The true thickness of the mineralized intervals are interpreted to be approximately 50% to 65% of the sampled thickness for other reported holes.Five Key Takeaways:559 m Mineralised Corridor Confirmed: SDDSC196 intersected 16 vein sets across a 559 m corridor from 376 m to 936 m downhole, averaging 559 m @ 2.5 g/t AuEq (2.1 g/t Au, 0.2% Sb) uncut, with six intervals greater than 20 g/t AuEq including three individual assays exceeding 100 g/t Au.Ultra High-Grade Intersection: SDDSC196 delivers 1.3 m @ 670 g/t AuEq (nearly 20 oz/t gold) from 869 m depth (Photos 1 and 2) - the 7th highest intercept on the project and further confirmation that ultra-high grade gold persists at depth.Record Antimony Grades: The highest individual antimony assay on the project to date - 0.16 m @ 65.9% Sb (plus 78.5 g/t Au) - reinforces Sunday Creek's strategic importance as a Western antimony supply source.Infill Success Across Additional Reported Holes: SDDSC176 returned 4.2 m @ 25.7 g/t AuEq (incl. 1.4 m @ 77 g/t AuEq) confirming RS4 high-grade core; SDDSC187 intersected seven vein sets including three not previously defined, with 5.2 m @ 7.8 g/t AuEq (incl. 0.1 m @ 127 g/t Au); SDDSC190 defined the outer margins of the Rising Sun system.Momentum Building: Ten rigs opera...
