Follow-Up Drilling Commences at Rockland Gold Project
RC drilling underway to follow up Rockland results
HIGHLIGHTS
• Reverse circulation (RC) drilling has commenced at the Company’s 100%-owned Rockland Gold Project
(M24/974), approximately 40km north of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia
• The programme of approximately six RC holes for approximately 700m follows up the results of the
recent Rockland drilling programme
• Drilling is focused on the southern drill line, where drill hole 26RKRC011 intersected 12m @ 1.25 g/t Au
from 168m, including 4m @ 2.18 g/t Au from 176m, and 4m @ 4.87 g/t Au from 200m (four-metre
composites; ASX: 23 September 2026)
• Earlier drilling at Rockland returned 3m @ 6.94 g/t Au from 138m, including 1m @ 20.35 g/t Au from
140m, in 26RKRC005 (ASX: 23 June 2026)
• Seven of the eight recent holes intersected gold mineralisation, and the interpreted east-dipping shoots
remain open down dip (ASX: 23 September and 4 November 2026)
• The programme continues resource definition drilling at Rockland, on a granted mining lease with an
approved Programme of Work
Dundas Minerals Limited (ASX: DUN) (“Dundas” or the “Company”) is pleased to advise that reverse circulation (RC)
drilling has commenced at its 100%-owned Rockland Gold Project (M24/974) (Rockland), approximately 40km north of
Kalgoorlie in Western Australia, figure 1.

The programme comprises approximately six RC holes for approximately 700m. It follows up the results of the
Company’s eight-hole recent programme at Rockland, reported on 23 September and 4 November 2026, and continues
resource definition drilling at the project. Drilling is being carried out by Nexgen Drilling Pty Ltd, which drilled the recent
programme, using a track-mounted Schramm T450 RC rig (ASX: 2 September 2026).
Commenting on the start of drilling, Dundas Minerals Managing Director Jonathan Downes said:
“The recent last drilling programme identified high grade gold down dip of previous high-grade results. The strongest
results came from the southern drill line, where 26RKRC011 intersected gold below the base of the earlier drilling and
the gold shoots remain open. This programme goes back to test how far the mineralisation extends.
“This focused programme on a granted mining lease is the next step in resource definition at Rockland. With assays
also due from Capricorn and Baden-Powell, we expect a steady flow of results over the coming months.”
The holes are designed to follow up the strongest recent results, on and around the southern drill line (6638759mN),
and to improve drill coverage of the mineralised shoots as part of resource definition at Rockland.
Rockland Gold Project
Rockland lies at the southern end of the Company’s Kalgoorlie Gold Project, approximately 40km north of Kalgoorlie
(Figure 2). Rockland, Aquarius, Capricorn and Gemini lie on an interpreted north–south structural corridor that extends
approximately 3km from Gemini south to Rockland, although continuity between the prospects has not been established
by drilling (ASX: 3 September 2026).
Dundas holds 100% of the Rockland mining lease, subject to a 1.5% net smelter return royalty (ASX: 7 April 2026 and
29 July 2026). The Company’s drilling has outlined a 1km zone of gold mineralisation at Rockland (ASX: 12 December
2024 and 21 January 2025), in stacked shoots that are interpreted to dip east and remain open down dip. Rockland is
being explored for Archaean orogenic lode gold on the western limb of the Bardoc–Broad Arrow syncline.
Recent drilling comprised eight RC holes testing down dip and along strike from the interpreted east-dipping mineralised
shoots. The strongest results came from the southern drill line, where 26RKRC011 was drilled to 234m to test below the
existing drilling and intersected two zones of gold mineralisation (ASX: 23 September 2026):
• 12m @ 1.25 g/t Au from 168m, including 4m @ 2.18 g/t Au from 176m; and
• 4m @ 4.87 g/t Au from 200m.
These results are from four-metre composite samples, and one-metre re-assays of the intervals are pending. Reported
intervals are downhole lengths; true widths are not known.
The intercepts lie down dip of earlier Dundas results on the same line, including 6m @ 3.3 g/t Au from 78m in
24RKRC005 and 8m @ 1.1 g/t Au from 145m in 24RKRC007 (ASX: 12 December 2024 and 21 January 2025). They
extend the interpreted shoots to approximately 170m below surface, where they remain open down dip (Figure 1).
Historical Paddington hole TLRC042, first reported by the Company on 23 September 2026, returned 5m @ 5.52 g/t Au
from 114m on the same section. Continuity between TLRC042 and the Dundas intercepts has not been established.
The other seven Stage 2 holes returned weaker results. 26RKRC012 and 26RKRC013, on the interpreted western
margin of the mineralised corridor, returned intercepts including 8m @ 0.93 g/t Au from 52m in 26RKRC012 (ASX: 23
September 2026). Of the remaining five holes, the best result was 12m @ 1.0 g/t Au from 104m, including 4m @ 2.5 g/t
Au from 112m, in 26RKRC014, and 26RKRC016 returned no significant result (ASX: 4 November 2026). Seven of the
eight Stage 2 holes intersected gold mineralisation above the 0.3 g/t Au reporting cut-off.
