Investor update summary
5 Nov, 2026Maiden resource estimate
Island Gold maiden MRE: 6.16Mt at 2.6g/t Au for 522koz, comprising 269koz Indicated and 253koz Inferred.
Central Island hosts 498koz and New Orient 24koz; 95% of contained gold is at Central Island, and the system remains open to extension.
High-grade component: 340koz at 5.8g/t Au using a 3.0g/t cut-off; 95% of the high-grade core lies within the optimized open-pit shell.
Exploration growth and drilling
Conceptual Exploration Target of 500–900koz at 2.0–2.5g/t across 8–12Mt, additional to the MRE and not a Mineral Resource; target area spans more than 5km of strike, with ten outcropping BIF units and 50km of BIF search space.
A fully funded 50,000m drilling program is underway, with 25,000m to come; ~75% is planned for resource expansion and 25% for new targets, including Comet after heritage surveys.
Priority targets include eastern BIF around Vadrians, New Orient and southern prospects, plus the undrilled western lease where aircore drilling is underway.
Infill and down-plunge drilling at Baxter, Golconda and New Orient is intended to support resource updates; assays and further Island step-outs are upcoming catalysts.
Metallurgy and infrastructure
Testwork achieved up to 94% recovery at P80 75μm, 92% at a coarser 106μm grind, and 92% extraction in 24 hours; 33% coarse gold supports potential gravity and CIL processing.
Free-milling characteristics include standard reagent consumption, no preg-robbing and minimal deleterious elements; reported test cost was A$25/oz.
Four operating regional mills have combined installed capacity above 6.0Mtpa; Tuckabianna is ~20km by road and Mt Magnet ~50km from Island, with Checkers ~50km south.
Murchison location offers nearby gold camps and processing hubs; Great Northern Highway crosses the lease and connects regional infrastructure.
