Highlights

Catalina Resources has commenced a 2,000m RC drilling program at the Laverton Gold Project, targeting extensions within the halo zone.

The drilling includes two deep holes reaching 250m to test the western ‘shoot’ of the mineralised system.

The program follows up on significant previous intersections, including 28m @ 1.09 g/t Au and 18m @ 1.16 g/t Au.

Results from the current drilling campaign are expected by mid-October 2025.

Catalina Resources Limited (ASX:CTN) has commenced a reverse circulation (RC) drilling program at its Laverton Gold Project (E38/3697).

The campaign will focus on extending wide gold zones recently intersected within the halo areas.

The program will include 11 RC holes, ranging in depth from 130m to 250m, with approximately 2,000m planned in total. Notably, two of the proposed holes, LVRC07 and LVRC20, are designed to extend to 250m to test the western ‘shoot’.

Follow-Up on Significant Intersections

The drilling is designed to follow up on promising gold intersections from previous drilling, including:

28m at 1.09 g/t Au from 57m, including 1m at 9.69 g/t Au (hole LVAC049).
18m at 1.16 g/t Au from 126m, including 5m at 2.3 g/t Au (hole LVRC02).

The halo zone remains open in several directions, in line with the large-scale mineralising system within one of Australia’s most prolific gold districts, situated near world-class deposits including Sunrise Dam, Wallaby, and Granny Smith.

The new drilling also aims to test the strike and depth potential along the Barnicoat Shear Zone, a regionally significant structure.

Strategic Location in a Premier Gold District

The Laverton Project is strategically positioned in the Laverton district, surrounded by world-class deposits of gold. Nearby operations include Sunrise Dam, Wallaby, the Granny Smith gold mine, as well as Mt Weld rare earth deposit.

The current program represents a mix of infill and step-out drilling, designed both to increase confidence in known gold zones and to expand mineralisation along strike and at depth. Assay results are anticipated by mid-October 2025.

CTN shares were trading at AUD 0.004 per share at the time of writing on 11 September 2025.
