Flynn Gold Limited (ASX: FG1, “Flynn” or “the Company”) is
pleased to announce the discovery of an extensive system of gold
bearing quartz veins within historical workings located approximately
250m north of the historic Trafalgar Mine at its 100% owned Golden
Ridge Project in Northeast Tasmania (see Figure 1).

team will respond to where possible
Managing Director & CEO Neil Marston, commenting on the results said:
“The company is excited by the discovery of multiple high-grade gold veins approximately
250m north of the main Trafalgar gold deposit at Golden Ridge in Northeast Tasmania.
These gold veins were exposed in trenching over an area of historical mine workings
which appear unrecorded since they were dug about a century ago.
“The vein system potentially expands the footprint of gold mineralisation at Trafalgar to a
500m wide corridor which remains open in all directions, once again confirming the
potential for significant scale at the Golden Ridge Project.”
“With so many high-grade gold assays recorded at the surface we have adjusted our ongoing diamond drilling program to test beneath these old workings and we look forward
to reporting the results of this drilling shortly.”

Field Mapping and Trenching Program
Following up on recent gold-in-soil anomalies1 Flynn geologists have discovered an area
of previously unmapped historical prospecting trenches, pits and adits which are believed
to have been excavated as late as the 1930’s. The main feature of the historical workings
is a 240m long North-South trench which was possibly part of a historic water race that
exposed the gold bearing veins during its construction. Flynn recently re-excavated part
of this historical trench and has added new trenching nearby (Figure 3).
As a result of the trenching work, Flynn has mapped and sampled 19 in-situ quartzsulphide veins over a width of 65m to date, with initial grab samples collected recording
gold grades up to 76.6g/t Au from in-situ outcropping veins (Figure 3).

workings. A-A’ delineates Figure 6 cross-section.

Two historic adits have also been located in the area and appear to have been excavated
beneath the gold veins exposed in the historic trench. The old adits have since partly
collapsed, preventing safe access. A grab sample taken from mineralised mullock
material at one of the adit entrances returned 99.4 g/t Au, 121g/t Ag and 1.73% Pb
(Figure 3, Table 1).
In addition to the grab/rock chip samples, Flynn has commenced a trench channel
sampling program. Results from initial channel sampling indicate gold mineralisation
occurs within discrete high-grade quartz-sulphide veins up to 200mm wide, with some
lower grade intervals indicating a wider dispersal in quartz veinlet swarms (Figure 3 and
4, Table 2). Significant mineralised channel sample intervals include:
-
11.0m @ 2.0g/t Au including 3.3m @ 6.3g/t Au.
-
16.5m @ 1.3g/t Au including 1.5m @ 6.8g/t Au and 4.0m @ 2.4g/t Au

Figure 4 - Left: Flynn Gold trench around 1m wide being excavated down to bedrock using a 1.7 tonne excavator.
Centre: In-situ vein up to 230mm wide (200mm average) discovered in the historic trench.
Right: Cut sample from in-situ vein (white box centre picture), returned 0.2m @ 48.5g/t Au (Sample 75539).
Gold bearing quartz-sulphide veins in the trenches are steeply dipping and strike to the
northeast, which is a similar orientation to the trend of the main veins intersected by
drilling further to the south at the Trafalgar prospect.
The new vein zone is hosted in granodiorite, supporting the Company’s view that the
Golden Ridge Project is an Intrusive Related Gold System (IRGS) and is located north of
veins identified at the bottom of hole TFDD002 (see Figure 6). This implies a potential
vertical extent of 425m from surface and a total horizontal width of mineralisation of
approximately 500m, which is open at depth and to the north and south. Veining at
Trafalgar occurs over a strike length of at least 400m as proven by recent diamond drilling
which is open along strike and at depth.
Previously reported drilling results from Trafalgar include multiple intersections grading
>100g/t Au and up to 169g/t Au 2. Confirmation of high-grade gold bearing quartz veins in
the trench area significantly broadens the known mineralisation footprint of the Trafalgar
prospect from a 300m wide corridor to almost 500m wide. Future exploration campaigns
will aim to further increase the extent of the corridor north of the trenching area and south
of the Trafalgar deposit.

Trafalgar Prospect – Phase 3 Drilling Update
Phase 3 drilling commenced at the Trafalgar prospect in mid-April 2024. The planned
diamond drill program is designed to test strike and dip extensions and infill around
previously discovered high-grade gold intercepts. Three diamond holes, TFDD016-018
have been completed for 927.0m to date (see Figure 5). TFDD019 is currently being
drilled beneath the new discovery area (See Figure 2 and 6).
TFDD016
This 355.85m hole was designed to in-fill widely spaced drilling and test all 3 of the main
veins (Trafalgar Main, Magazine and Trafalgar South) and associated splays identified by
Flynn’s recent modelled interpretation of the deposit.
Multiple mineralised zones including visible gold, were intersected in the hole, including
the following previously reported highlights3:
-
0.4m @ 67.6g/t Au within 1.3m @ 21.9g/t Au from 248.7m;
-
0.3m @ 39.2g/t Au from 243.2m;
-
0.5m @ 35.1g/t Au within 1.4m @ 12.7g/t Au from 164.6m (Trafalgar Main Vein);
-
0.3m @ 19.0g/t Au within 0.65m @ 10.5g/t Au from 187.55m (Magazine Vein);
-
0.3m @12.3g/t Au within 1.2m @ 3.5g/t Au from 233.0m;
-
0.4m @ 10.8g/t Au from 135.2m.
Assays have been received for the remainder of the hole (274.0-355.85m EOH). Table 3
sets out significant intercepts with the best interval being:
-
0.4m @ 6.0g/t Au within 1.3m @ 2.1g/t Au from 315.1m (Trafalgar South Vein).
TFDD017
This 248.4m hole was designed to test the eastern extent of the 3 main veins. The hole
intersected some structures in the target zones, however a significant fault zone (180m 220m) was intersected that is interpreted to have offset the main mineralised veins trend
in the target zone.
Assays have been received for the entire hole. Table 3 sets out significant intercepts with
the best interval being:
-

TFDD018
This 322.7m hole was designed to in-fill widely spaced drilling and test the Trafalgar Main
and Magazine veins to the west and up dip of high-grade intercepts in TFDD016 and
TFD001. Logging and sampling of TFDD018 is complete. Assay results have been
received from 0-59.5m and 214-294m, with the remaining samples (59.5-214m and
294m-322.7m EOH) at the laboratory.
Multiple zones with visible signs of mineralisation were intersected in the target areas
including:
-
0.5m @ 2.9g/t Au from 231.5m (Magazine Vein);
1.1m @ 4.9g/t Au from 281.9m;
0.3m @ 16.3g/t Au within 1.0m @ 5.5g/t Au from 292.6m (Trafalgar Main Vein);
Table 3 sets out other significant intercepts.

Next Steps
Diamond hole (TFDD019) is currently being drilled beneath the new discovery area
targeting depth extension of the gold-bearing vein zone at approximately 100m beneath
the surface (see Figure 6). The planned end of hole (EOH) depth for TFDD019 is 250m,
however this hole may be extended to test the up-dip position of the veins intersected in
TFDD002 (4.3m @ 4.3g/t Au from 594.7m4).
Additional drill holes have already been approved by Mineral Resource Tasmania to
enhance our understanding of gold mineralisation in this area.

mine remains untested.
Exploration elsewhere at Golden Ridge is ongoing. Soil sampling campaigns are testing
un-explored areas within the granodiorite and along the granodiorite contact. Targets that
have been identified through previous soil sampling campaigns, such as Duke, Big Penny

and Grenadier are being followed up with subsequent infill soil sampling, rock chip
sampling and field mapping 5.
A structural geology consultant has been engaged by Flynn to help understand the fault
architecture at Trafalgar and the overall Golden Ridge Project. Outcomes from this work
will be used to target mineralisation further east of the Trafalgar vein model extents.
Golden Ridge - Project Background
The Company’s flagship Golden Ridge Project is situated within EL17/2018 in Northeast
Tasmania (see Figure 1). The Trafalgar Prospect, along with Flynn’s Brilliant and Link
Zone prospects occur within a 2.5km corridor of gold mineralisation that trends along a
prospective granodiorite-metasediment contact. This corridor is contained in a broader
zone of gold anomalism that forms around the contact of the Golden Ridge granodiorite
intrusion with a total length exceeding 9km (see Figure 7).

Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data
Criteria
JORC Code explanation
Commentary
Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g.
cut channels, random chips, or specific
specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as
downhole gamma sondes, or
handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These
examples should not be taken as
limiting the broad meaning of
sampling.
The sampling described in this report refers to diamond (DD) drilling,
rock chip and channel sampling.
Samples were all collected by qualified geologists or under geological
supervision.
Core samples are judged to be representative of the rock being
drilled.
Rock-chip ‘in-situ’ and channel samples were taken from in-situ
outcrop. Rock-chip ‘float’ samples were not in-situ, these rocks have
potentially been transported.
The nature and quality of sampling is carried out under QAQC
procedures as per industry standards.
Include reference to measures taken to
ensure sample representivity and the
appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
Sampling is guided by Flynn’s protocols and Quality Control
procedures, as per industry standards.
Diamond drilling
Diamond core is sampled to geological boundaries with sample
lengths generally between 0.3m and 2.0m.
The core is cut on site and half core sampled. The remaining half
core is stored on site.
Care is taken when sampling the diamond core to sample the same
half side of the core as standard practice.
During sampling of the diamond drill core, certified reference
material (CRM) standards are inserted at least every 20 samples.
Blank samples are also inserted at least every 20 samples. Duplicate
samples are routinely submitted and checked against originals.
Rock chip samples
Rock chip samples are taken from float or in-situ outcrops and were
between 0.3 and 3kg. Float samples are marked as such, and it is
noted that these rocks were potentially transported. Some field
duplicates were collected to check consistency of assaying methods.
Channel samples
Channel samples were taken from the walls of the historic trench at
interval lengths between 0.5m and 1.0m. The channel line was cut
between 0.5m and 1.0m above the trench floor.
Certified reference material (CRM) standards were inserted at least
every 20 samples. Blanks samples are also inserted at least every 20
samples. Some field duplicates were collected to check consistency
of assaying methods.
Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to the
Public Report.
Diamond drilling
Drill core samples are sent to On Site Laboratory Services in Bendigo.
Samples are weighed, dried and crushed to -2mm, and rotary split
into a Chrysos jar (500g nominal). The residual sample is retained.
Samples are assayed for gold via photo assay method PAAU2. Photon
assay is a non-destructive assay method.
PAAU2 has a detection range of 0.01 to 350 ppm Au.

JORC Code explanation
Commentary
Coarse gold was observed in some drill core intervals. Additional
sampling using various techniques and duplicate samples is ongoing
to allow an assessment of any sampling issues. Current results
appear to be consistent with historical drilling assay results
associated with coarse visible gold.
Rock chip and channel samples
Rock chip and channel samples were geologically logged for
lithology, mineralisation, veining and alteration. Rock chip samples
were digitally photographed.
Entire samples were prepared at the ALS laboratory in Burnie.
Samples were weighed (WEI-21), crushed (CRU-21), then pulverized
(PUL-21) to a nominal 85% passing 75 microns.
All samples were submitted for preparation at the ALS laboratory in
Burnie. Samples were analysed at Burnie for Au by AU-AA25 (30 g
charge fire assay) then sent to Townsville for multi-element assay by
4 acid digest (MS-ME61).
Drilling
techniques
Drill type (e.g. core, reverse
circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary
air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc.)
and details (e.g. core diameter, triple
or standard tube, depth of diamond
tails, face-sampling bit or other type,
whether core is oriented and if so, by
what method, etc.).
Drilling is undertaken by diamond core technique at triple tube PQ3
(83.1mm diameter),HQ3 (61.1mm diameter), and NQ3 (42mm) core
sizes.
Industry standard diamond drilling techniques are used.
HQ core is orientated using a Boart Longyear Truecore UPIX core
orientation system or similar.
Hole traces are surveyed using a digital down-hole survey camera
tool.
The location of each hole was recorded by handheld GPS with
positional accuracy of approximately +/-5m. Location data was
collected in MGA94 zone 55.
Drill holes are planned to intersect mineralisation at an optimum
angle.
Drill sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries and
results assessed.
Core recovery was logged and recorded in the company’s database.
Core loss has occurred in the weathering profiles and fault zones,
however overall recovery meets industry standards.
Measures taken to maximise sample
recovery and ensure representative
nature of the samples.
Triple tube diamond core drilling techniques are used.
The core recovery is logged
