Barton Gold Holdings Limited announced that preliminary assays for the third parcel of December 2022 mill cleanout materials have been received. In December 2022 Barton recovered an estimated 10+ tonnes of gold bearing materials from the gold room, ball mills, sumps, floor and gravity circuit during a review of the Central Gawler Mill. The first parcel of approximately 3.8 dry tonnes previously returned an average grade of approximately 3,000 g/t Au, for a contained metal value of approximately 375oz Au, and the second parcel of approximately 3.6 dry tonnes previously returned an average grade of approximately 7,000 g/t Au, for a contained metal value of approximately 815oz Au.

The third parcel is the final main parcel of materials from the December 2022 mill cleanout. Assay figures are indicative only and final recoveries may vary significantly based upon metallurgical and other factors.
