## Highlights

- White Rock reports continued exploration success from its ongoing underground diamond drilling campaign at the Morning Star Underground Gold Mine, Victoria.
- Continued success in the Gap Zone drilling is highly encouraging, with the first pass drilling phase now completed. Two intercepts have assayed greater than 700 g/t gold, with assay results still to be received from a further eight holes.
- Drill hole 22GZL9016 has returned **25 metres @ 972 g/t gold **(31 ounces per tonne of gold) in a quartz reef interval with abundant visible gold from the Achilles Reef in the Gap Zone.
- Final screen fire assays for **Gap Zone **drillhole hole 22GZL9013 returned **740g/t gold over a width of 0.4 metres**.
- Drilling continues to return positive grades associated with the **Dickenson South **mining area, supporting White Rock’s recent commencement of pre-production mine access activities. Recent results include **31g/t gold over 0.2 metres**.
- Drilling of the **Whitelaw **target area also returns positive results from recent drilling, highlighting the area as a prospective longer term mining target. Recent results include **9g/t gold over 1.1 metres.**
- White Rock’s recent drilling program has allowed the Company to complete a geological structural review of the deposit, highlighting several underexplored zones of prospectivity close to existing mining infrastructure. This close proximity to infrastructure allows for short to medium-term drill.
