About Rincon
Rincon Resources Limited has a 100% interest in three highly prospective copper and gold projects in Western Australia: South Telfer, Kiwirrkurra and Laverton. Each project has been subject to historical xploration that has identified significant mineralised systems which Rincon intends on exploring to
d lineate copper and gold resources.

Diamond Drilling Completed at Hasties
South Telfer Copper-Gold Project
use 660m EIS co-funded diamond hole 22STDC002 completed at the Hasties Prospect.
'Hasties Deeps' target zones1 successfully tested with multiple zones of brecciation and sulphides observed.
Samples have been submitted to the laboratory for assaying, with results expected within 6-8 weeks.
The balance of the Phase 2 drilling program, comprising approximately 2,300m of RC drilling, will commence after evaluation and assessment of the diamond drilling results has been completed.
personalRincon's Managing Director, Gary Harvey commented:
"We are pleased to have completed, and successfully intersected the 'Hasties Deeps' target zones as intended, with multiple zones of alteration, veining, brecciation and sulphides observed throughout the hole. We are encouraged to see evidence of a sequence of alteration events that can be considered similar to other mineral systems in the Paterson Province2.
"While we now await the final assays, we have already engaged industry consultant Outcrop Exploration Services to assist in assessing the alteration and structure observed, which will inform our strategy for the remaining RC drilling program".
Rincon Resources Limited (Rincon or the Company) is pleased to provide an update on the progress of the Company's Phase 2 drilling campaign at its flagship South Telfer Copper-Gold Project,
Forlocated in the Paterson Province, Western Australia, 12km south of the Telfer Gold Mine.
The Exploration Incentive Scheme (EIS) co-funded diamond drillhole 22STDC002 is now complete. The EIS hole was designed to test the 'Hasties Deep' target area for structurally controlled copper- gold mineralisation at the apex, and along the eastern limb zone, of a folded Dolerite Sill (Dolerite).
22STDC002, drilled to 660m, successfully intersected the target fold axis zone near the apex of the Dolerite, approximately 350m below the surface, and about 150m below the deepest drilled copper-gold mineralisation at the Hasties Main Zone. The hole proceeded to drill through the Dolerite and tested the eastern limb contact zone (refer Figure 2).

ASX Announcement 26 May 2022
Multiple zones of intense alteration, veining, brecciation and sulphides (mainly pyrite & minor chalcopyrite) were intersected throughout and proximal to target zones (see Photos and Table 1 below), including zones of disseminated sulphides (chalcopyrite ± pyrite), alteration and veining also within the Dolerite.
The hole has now been processed and samples sent to the laboratory for assaying. Assay results
