ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
24 June 2026
ADAVALE DRILLOUT CONTINUES TO GROW THE
LONDON-VICTORIA RESOURCE AND PARKES
THRUST EXTENSION
Assays received for an additional 13 drillholes from the ongoing London-Victoria resource
drillout continue to build on Adavale’s systematic drilling strategy, with the growing body
of data validating and extending the resource below the existing open pit.
Beyond the immediate resource growth opportunity, the current drillout is building a
critical foundation for Adavale’s broader belt-scale strategy, where London-Victoria is
interpreted as part of a much larger Parkes Thrust-hosted gold corridor extending south
through the Company’s recently acquired tenure to the Calarie Mining Licence.
• Highlights include:
ALRC059
• 19m @ 1.36g/t Au from 149m
ALRC058
• 1m @ 10.3g/t Au from 35m within 6m @ 3.22g/t Au from 35m
• 7m @ 1.18g/t Au from 108m and
• 4m @ 1.41g/t Au from 119m within 23m @ 0.87g/t Au from 108m and
• 6m @ 1.77g/t Au from 162m within 28m @ 0.62g/t Au from 141m
ALRC056
• 4m @ 1.06g/t Au from 125m and
• 6m @ 1.39g/t Au from 133m and
• 3m @ 1.62g/t Au from 148m within 47m @ 0.68g/t Au from 121m
ALRC029
• 4m @ 3.60g/t Au from 190m
• These 13 drillholes represent 2,751m of a total 14,155m drilled by Adavale to date
• Drilling continues with two rigs; assays from a further 26 drillholes are at the
laboratory with results expected progressively over the coming weeks.
Adavale Resources Managing Director, Mr. David Ward, commented:
“The latest London-Victoria results continue to build confidence in the scale and continuity of gold
mineralisation below the historic open pit. Increasing drill density is refining our geological model and
improving our understanding of the controls on the higher-grade shoots. With drilling continuing across
two rigs and a further 26 holes at the Laboratory, we expect this momentum to continue as we work
toward an updated Mineral Resource, a key step in unlocking Adavale’s Parkes Thrust gold corridor.”

Adavale Resources Limited (ASX:ADD) (“Adavale” or the “Company”), an Australian junior
explorer/developer focused on gold and copper in the Lachlan Fold Belt of New South Wales, is
pleased to announce the results from the next 13 holes (2,751m) of the current ongoing drilling
program at The London-Victoria Gold Mine.

Figure 2: Cross Section Displaying position and gold results for ALRC058 and ALRC059 relative to the
historic London-Victoria Open Pit (Section Line A-A’ displayed in Figure 1)
Results have been received for 13 holes of the ongoing resource drillout at the London-
Victoria Gold Mine (ALRC027, ALRC029, ALRC030, ALRC036-041, ALRC054 and ALRC056-059).
An additional 26 holes have been completed and submitted for analysis in multiple batches.
The results continue to support the Company's interpretation that London-Victoria contains a
combination of structurally controlled higher-grade shoots of mineralisation under the northern
portion of the pit and broader zones to the south.
Higher-grade intercepts, including ALRC029, ALRC027 and ALRC037, continue to support the
continuity of discrete higher-grade lodes below the open pit in the north.
Broad, consistent intercepts in ALRC056, ALRC058 and ALRC059, continue the trend of broad
intercepts of up to 47m true width in the south, and provide additional data for the planned
Mineral Resource update and support the interpretation of a larger mineralised system at London-
Victoria.

historic London-Victoria Open Pit (Section Line B-B’ displayed in Figure 1)
Diamond Drilling
All assay results received to date from the current program have been from reverse circulation
drilling, which has enabled Adavale to swiftly and systematically build drill density below the 1.5km
span of the London-Victoria open pit to better identify and assess priority areas for follow-up.
The second rig onsite is drilling diamond core, with the Company now underway on its third
diamond hole. Two completed diamond holes have been logged and are awaiting cutting and
assay. The diamond drilling component of the program is designed to provide important structural
information to assist interpretation of the deposit, improve confidence in the geological model,
Mineral Resource Estimate and support more targeted follow-up drilling of the higher-grade shoots
below the historic open pit.
5
Additional Geological Review Work
With the current drillout now providing a substantially larger body of data and an improved
understanding of the structural controls on mineralisation at London-Victoria, Adavale has
commenced additional review work to better integrate historical and recent drilling into the
evolving geological model.
This work includes relogging and reassessment of diamond hole AEIDD001, which was previously
reported by Adavale as a 453m diamond core hole drilled by the Vendor of the Parkes Project in
November 2024 to test the down-dip depth potential of the London-Victoria deposit. The hole was
drilled prior to Adavale becoming operator of the Project and intersected a broad zone of quartz-
carbonate veining, shearing and pyrite-sericite alteration interpreted to be broadly consistent with
the London-Victoria mineralised system.
Previous sampling of AEIDD001 was selective, with only priority sections of the hole cut and
assayed. In light of the improved geological understanding now being developed from the current
RC and diamond drilling programs, Adavale is reassessing the unsampled and partially assessed
portions of AEIDD001 to determine whether additional cutting and sampling is warranted. This
work is expected to assist in refining the down-dip interpretation of the deposit and in turn support
more targeted follow-up drilling below and beyond the historic open pit.
Figure 4: 25cm Section of uncut core, sheared, altered and mineralised from 223-224m in AEIDD001, the
bright brassy coloured mineral is pyrite, a common sulphide mineral often associated with gold-bearing
alteration systems.
Note: Visual observations from the AEIDD001 core photo are qualitative in nature and are provided for geological context
only. No visual estimate of gold grade or metal content can be determined from the core photo, and any assessment of grade
will be dependent on laboratory assay results.1

Preliminary Metallurgical Sighter Testwork
Preliminary metallurgical sighter testwork completed on three London-Victoria composite samples
has returned encouraging early results, supporting the potential for gold recovery through
conventional cyanide leaching.
The two higher-grade samples demonstrated rapid leach kinetics, with final 24-hour recoveries of
approximately 81-83%. These results indicate that a significant proportion of the gold is readily
recoverable under standard cyanide leach conditions.
Reagent consumption was low across all three composites, with both NaCN and CaO consumption
below 0.55kg/t, providing a positive early indication of conventional processing potential. The
results are preliminary in nature and will be used to guide the next phase of metallurgical testwork.
Future metallurgical testwork is expected to incorporate diamond core from the current drilling
program, providing fresh, continuous material to better assess metallurgical variability, recovery
characteristics and processing performance across the deposit.
London-Victoria Gold Mine – Next Steps
• Brownfields drilling
o Systematic “drill out” underway to expand and upgrade existing mineralisation and
support ongoing Mineral Resource growth.
o 2 rigs remain active on site, with assay results reported once received and validated.

Appendix 3 – JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section)
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 down hole gamma sondes, or
handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should
not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
• Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample
representivity and the appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
• Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are
Material to the Public Report.
• In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done
this would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse circulation
drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg
was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’).
In other cases more explanation may be required, such
as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types
(e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailed information.
• The quality of reverse circulation (RC) percussion drilling is generally medium–high because the
method significantly reduces the potential of contamination, unless there is a lot of groundwater
or badly broken ground. Consequently, these samples can be representative of the interval
drilled and therefore can be used for Mineral Resource estimation.
• RC drilling was used to obtain 1m samples collected through a rig mounted cyclone and then
using a rig mounted cone splitter to produce an approximately 3kg sample split for assay.
• The samples were then dispatched to the Onsite Laboratory Services laboratory in Bendigo. The
samples were then crushed and pulverised to produce a 25g charge for fire assay with an AAS
(atomic absorption spectroscopy) finish for gold determination, with a 0.01ppm detection limit.
• Drill chips were logged by a trained geologist.
• Duplicate samples were collected approximately every 20 samples and submitted to the
laboratory. Duplicates intervals were selected within zones of visual mineralisation by the onsite
geologist.
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).
• RC drilling was completed using a 140mm face sampling bit and hammer.
DRILL SAMPLE
RECOVERY
• Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample
recoveries and results assessed.
• Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and
ensure representative nature of the samples.
• Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery
and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred
due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.
• All samples were dry and RC drilling recoveries recorded.
• Sample recoveries were considered to be good and within acceptable tolerance for RC drilling.
14
CRITERIA JORC Code Explanation Commentary
LOGGING
• Whether core and chip samples have been geologically
and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support
appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies
and metallurgical studies.
• Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature.
Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography.
• The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.
• Systematic geological logging was undertaken onsite at the time of RC drilling. Data includes:
• Collar information including hole depth, coordinates, survey method, survey type, survey date,
tenement number, tenement name, prospect name, hole status, date commenced drilling, date

• Nature and extent of lithologies.
• Interpretation of relationship between lithologies.
• Nature and extent of veining.
• Amount and mode of occurrences of ore minerals.
• Magnetic susceptibility measurements for every 1m sample.
• Both qualitative and quantitative data was collected.

• Chip trays were photographed.
SUB-SAMPLING
TECHNIQUES
AND SAMPLE
PREPARATION
• If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or
all core taken.
• If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split,
etc and whether sampled wet or dry.
• For all sample types, the nature, quality, and
appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.
• Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling
stages to maximise representivity of samples.
• Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is
representative of the in situ material collected, including
for instance results for field duplicate/second-half
sampling.
• Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size
of the material being sampled.
• RC samples were collected using a rig mounted cone splitter.
• All of samples collected were dry.
• RC samples were dried, crushed, and pulverised to 90% passing 75 microns
• RC drilling field duplicates were taken approximately every 20 samples. The samples were dried,
crushed, and pulverised to 90% passing 75 microns.
QUALITY OF
ASSAY DATA AND
LABORATORY
TESTS
• The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying
and laboratory procedures used and whether the
technique is considered partial or total.
• For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF
instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining
the analysis including instrument make and model,
reading times, calibrations factors applied and their
derivation, etc.
• Nature of quality control procedures adopted (e.g.
standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory
checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (i.e.
lack of bias) and precision have been established.
• Gold (Au) was determined by 50g fire assay (method Au-PE01S) with a detection limit of 0.01ppm.
• Field duplicates were sampled using the same rig mounted cone splitter as the primary samples.
The results of the duplicates were within acceptable tolerance from original.
• Drill data is compiled and collated and reviewed by senior Adavale staff.
• No historic or current drillholes have been twinned.
• The strong foliation in the host rocks caused significant deviation in some drillholes as a result
some holes have intersected the mineralised horizon close to historic drillhole intersections. All
legacy and new drillholes are displayed on the cross-sections and long-sections within the
announcement.

VERIFICATION OF
SAMPLING AND
ASSAYING
• The verification of significant intersections by either
independent or alternative company personnel.
• The use of twinned holes.
• Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures,
data verification, data storage (physical and electronic)
protocols.
• Discuss any adjustment to assay data.
• Drill data is compiled and collated and reviewed by senior Adavale staff.
• No historic or current drillholes have been twinned.
• The strong foliation in the host rocks caused significant deviation in some drillholes as a result
some holes have intersected the mineralised horizon close to historic drillhole intersections. All

LOCATION OF
DATA POINTS
• Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes
(collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings
and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation.
• Specification of the grid system used.
• Quality and adequacy of topographic control.
• Drill collar locations were initially pegged and surveyed using a handheld Garmin GPS with an
accuracy of 3-5m.
• Drillhole collar and downhole survey co-ordinates are recorded in UTM MGA94 Zone 55S.
• All angled RC holes were downhole surveyed using Reflex GYRO survey tool to produce azimuth
and dip readings. Readings were collected typically at a 5m spacing on open hole surveys post
completion of drilling the holes.
• Topography was determined via drone photogrammetry processed by Drone Deploy and cross
checked with the legacy open pit survey.
DATA SPACING
AND
DISTRIBUTION
• Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.
• Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to
establish the degree of geological and grade continuity
appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve
estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied.
• Whether sample compositing has been applied.
• Drillhole collar spacing is variable but designed to intersect the mineralised body approximately
on 50m sections.
• The London-Victoria deposit has an existing 2012 JORC Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate of
3.8Mt @ 0.95g/t Au for 115koz Au at a reporting cut-off of 0.25 g/t Au and 3.14Mt @ 1.06 g/t Au
for 107koz at a 0.5g/t cut-off. (Adavale Resources Limited Announcement 5th May 2025).
• All 1m samples collected were assayed for Au and no sample compositing has been applied.
ORIENTATION OF
DATA IN
RELATION TO
GEOLOGICAL
STRUCTURE
• Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased
sampling of possible structures and the extent to which
this is known, considering the deposit type.
• If the relationship between the drilling orientation and
the orientation of key mineralised structures is
considered to have introduced
