[{"type":"text","content":"Southern Cross Gold Extends High Grades to East and to Depth at Apollo EastIncluding 3.1 m @ 41.8 g/t AuEq (22.7g/t Au, 8.0% Sb)Vancouver, British Columbia and Melbourne, Australia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 8, 2025) - Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd (TSX: SXGC) (ASX: SX2) (OTCQX: SXGCF) (FSE: MV3) (\"SXGC\", \"SX2\" or the \"Company\") announces results from four diamond drill holes from the Apollo and Apollo East prospects, at the 100%-owned Sunday Creek gold-antimony project in Victoria (Figures 1 to 5).Four Key Points 1. Exceptional Grade Discovery Hole SDDSC170A intersected 3.1 m @ 41.8 g/t AuEq (22.7 g/t Au, 8.0% Sb) as well as 10.8 m @ 12.8 g/t AuEq* (12.6 g/t Au, 0.1% Sb) including 0.2 m @ 540.3 g/t AuEq (504 g/t Au, 0.1% Sb) from 672.1 - the highest gold grade recorded at Apollo East. 2. Major Extension Achievement Mineralization extended 75 m east and 115 m down-dip beyond previous drilling, significantly expanding the exploration target. 3. Strategic Antimony Bonus Highest antimony grade of 33.7% Sb at Apollo East reinforces Sunday Creek's position as a significant Western project for this defence critical mineral. 4. Depth Potential Proven Multiple +100 g/t Au intersections at depths exceeding 1,000 m confirm the system's continuity and continued improvement to depth.Michael Hudson, President & CEO, states: \"SDDSC170A has delivered exactly what we hoped to find - high-grade extensions at depth and along the eastern margins of the project, beyond our previous drilling boundaries. The 75 m eastward extension of Apollo East takes us into untested ground, while the 504 g/t gold and 33.7% antimony confirm the system maintains exceptional grades as we push deeper. In this case 115 m below previous drilling.\"What makes this particularly significant is the 10.8 m @ 12.6 g/t Au mineralized envelope surrounding the high-grade core. These broader common zones at Sunday Creek introduce potential for different mining methods.\"With nine rigs turning and the system continuing both east and at depth, we have clear vectors to follow. Apollo East is shaping up as the next major prospect area at Sunday Creek.\"FOR THOSE WHO LIKE THE DETAILSKey Take Aways 1.
