ABOUT HAMELIN GOLD

Hamelin Gold Limited (ASX:HMG) is an ASX-listed gold exploration company based in Perth, Western Australia. The Company has a landholding of more than 2,200km2 in the Tanami Gold Province in the north east of WA.

The Tanami hosts one of Australia's most exciting gold discoveries in the recent decades at Newmont Corporation's Callie Operations in the Northern Territory. Hamelin believes its belt-scale project area has strong geological and structural similarities to the Callie region and has the potential to host a major new gold discovery.

The Company has a strong Board and Management team and is well funded after completing an IPO which raised $10 million in November 2021.

Hamelin's shareholders include highly regarded gold miners Gold Fields Limited (JSE/NYSE:GFI) and Silver Lake Resources Limited (ASX:SLR).

Highlights:

Airborne magnetics and radiometrics survey define new drill targets

use

Fremlins - Callie analogue target located 8km south of Coyote Gold Mine

Schultz -steeply dipping discrete magnetic anomaly on major structural jog

Ginger - elevated radiometric response along sheared granite margin

Planned drill programs at West Tanami (Bandicoot, Mojave, Camel, Hutch's Find and Afghan)

Preparations on track for drilling to commence in March/April with 2,500 metres of diamond

drilling and 3,000 metres of RC to be completed before mid-2022.

Hamelin Gold Limited ("Hamelin" or the "Company") (ASX:HMG) is pleased to announce the definition

of three new gold targets at the West Tanami Gold Project in Western Australia.

Commenting on the generation of the new targets, Hamelin Managing Director Peter Bewick said:

"The first step in our exploration program since the Company's Initial Public Offer and ASX listing has been immediately successful. The completion of airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys has further demonstrated the effectiveness of geophysical techniques in refining targets in the West Tanami and has completed detailed magnetics across the entire project area. We now look forward to the Company's first drill campaign with drill site preparation to commence in the coming weeks and diamond drilling expected to commence in March/April 2022."

Processing of the recently completed airborne magnetic and radiometric survey at the West Tanami project has defined a series of new drill targets. The survey covered the eastern third of the project area (see Figure 1) and has been merged with other available geophysical datasets to provide the first ever detailed magnetic coverage across the entire West Tanami project. The data quality is greatly improved (see Figures 2 and 3) allowing for clearer identification of potential gold mineralising structures.

Fremlins

The Fremlins gold prospect is located 8km south of the Coyote Gold Mine that is owned by Northern Star Resources Limited (ASX:NST) and currently under care and maintenance. A series of shallow drill programs by previous explorers at Fremlins outlined gold anomalism over 6km of strike and defined two sub parallel, north south trending gold corridors (see Figure 4) with intersections including1;

  • 22m @ 0.6g/t Au from 45m to EOH incl. 6m@ 1.71g/t Au from 57m in FRAR011
  • 30m @ 0.3g/t Au from 9m incl. 1m @ 5.72g/t Au from 12m in FRAR058
  • 80m @ 0.2 g/t Au from 52m to EOH in FRRC012

Several zones of anomalous gold at Fremlins are open along strike and at depth with nine holes ending in mineralisation greater than 0.1g/t Au. Previous drilling at the prospect does not extend below 100m from surface and no drilling has been conducted at Fremlins since 2012.

The two gold corridors can be seen within the new detailed aeromagnetic images to trend parallel to the interpreted axis of the tightly folded antiform. The Fremlins antiform appears to deflect from a NNE trend to a NS trend as it dragged into the fault corridor. The interpreted structural architecture at Fremlins is strongly analogous to the structural setting of Newmont's +14Moz Callie Gold deposit located 100km to the ESE of the West Tanami project (see Figure 8).

The extensive near surface gold anomalism at Fremlins is similar in scale and tenor to near surface anomalies seen over several large scale (+1Moz) gold systems within the Tanami region. The next phase of drilling at Fremlins will test for bedrock mineralisation and potential high-grade shoots within the broader areas of gold anomalism.

Schultz

The Schultz prospect is situated 16km south west of Fremlins and is defined by a discrete high amplitude magnetic anomaly coincident with a significant jog in a regional scale, Trans-Tanami orientated structure. The magnetic anomaly has been modelled as a 400m by 300m steeply dipping pipe like feature on the margin of a large granite intrusion. The top of the magnetic anomaly is modelled to be 100m from surface (see Figure 5). The magnetic anomaly is untested with previous exploration activity limited to a 4m deep vacuum drilling program on an 800m by 400m grid.

Many of the gold prospects within the West Tanami project are associated with an elevated magnetic response that is interpreted to be the result of alteration associated with hydrothermal mineralising fluids. The magnetic anomaly at the Schultz prospect is more discrete and of higher amplitude than what is seen elsewhere within the project and is interpreted to be the result of more focused and intense hydrothermal fluid flow. The focusing of gold mineralising fluids is the key element in the formation of orogenic gold deposits.

Planned drilling at the Schultz prospect will target the modelled magnetic anomaly at a position approximately 200m from surface.

Ginger

The Ginger prospect is 13km west of Fremlins near the eastern boundary of the West Tanami project. Limited previous drilling at Ginger has identified gold mineralisation in quartz veins hosted in both dolerites and sediments with mineralisation open at depth. The mineralisation is within the metamorphosed and sheared margin of a granite. Previous drill results from Ginger include1;

  • 12m @ 0.6g/t Au from 18m incl. 1m@ 1.9g/t Au in GRAR003
  • 11m @ 0.7g/t Au from 21m incl. 1m@ 3.4g/t Au in GRAR004
  • 5m @ 2.7g/t Au from 11m incl. 2m @ 6.2g/t Au in GRAR010

Drilling along the sheared granite margin at Ginger is very limited with only 160m of the margin tested by previous drilling (see Figure 6). Processing of the radiometric data acquired during the recent airborne survey has outlined a strongly anomalous response that correlates with the previously defined gold anomalism at Ginger and extends 2.4km to the west to the Dino prospect. The source of the radiometric anomaly is potentially indicative of an intrusion-related gold event and the mineralisation at the Ginger and Dino prospects may extend well outside the extents of the existing drilling.

The presence of the radiometric anomaly at Ginger indicates a residual regolith profile or very shallow cover, implying the area could be amenable to surface geochemistry. An initial field mapping and geochemical program is proposed following heritage clearance, with drilling then proposed to test at depth and along strike of the existing gold mineralisation at Ginger.
