Flynn Gold Limited (ASX: FG1, “Flynn” or “the Company”) is pleased to
advise that it has been successful with two applications in Round 10 of the
Tasmanian State Government’s Exploration Drilling Grant Initiative (EDGI).
The successful applications will support exploration drilling targeting new
zones of gold mineralisation at the Company’s flagship Golden Ridge Project,
located in north-east Tasmania (see Figure 1).
Commenting on the EDGI grants, Flynn Gold Managing Director & CEO, Neil
Marston, said:
“We are delighted to have received such strong support from the Tasmanian
State Government through these grants, which are designed to help uncover
the next generation of mineral discoveries in Tasmania.
“Flynn will receive up to $140,000 in EDGI grant funds, allowing the Company
to fast-track the next phase of drilling at our flagship Golden Ridge Project.
“One grant of $70,000 will co-fund drilling beneath the historical Golden Ridge
Adit, where recent underground sampling of veins recorded results of up to
64g/t gold.
“The second $70,000 grant will co-fund a fence of drill-holes at the Link Zone,
approximately 900 metres south-west of the Trafalgar Prospect, testing for
western extensions to the high-grade gold mineralisation intersected in our
earlier drilling.
“The Company expects to be able to commence drilling once grant
documentation and drilling approvals are received.”

EDGI Program
EDGI is a Tasmanian State Government initiative to co-fund exploration drilling projects. The
aim of the program is to provide a stimulus to greenfield exploration in Tasmania. The
Tasmanian State Government is funding this initiative and the program is administered by
Mineral Resources Tasmania (MRT).
The Company lodged two applications with MRT for co-funded drilling at two locations within
the Link Zone prospect within EL17/2018 (Golden Ridge), with both applications successful
for the full amount of $70,000 each to cover half of the direct drilling costs.
Grant Deeds between the Company and the Department of State Growth will be finalised and
signed in the coming weeks.

Golden Ridge Adit and Link Zone Prospects
The Golden Ridge Adit and Link Zone prospects are located between Flynn’s Trafalgar and
Brilliant Prospects. The four prospects define a significant zone of gold mineralisation over a
strike length exceeding 2.5km, which is contained in a broader zone of gold anomalism that
forms around the southern contact of a granodiorite intrusion with a total length now exceeding
9km (see Figure 2).
The historical Golden Ridge Adit was recently re-discovered 500m east of the Brilliant
prospect, with underground sampling of veins recording results of up to 64g/t gold 1.
The Link Zone prospect is located along the prospective granodiorite-metasediment contact
zone 900m southwest of Trafalgar and 600m east of the Golden Ridge Adit and consists of 4
RC holes previously drilled by Flynn Gold in 2022. RC drilling results include a broad range of
gold mineralisation of 33m @ 0.5g/t Au. 2
