Highlights:
- Silver sulphide mineralising system confirmed over 1.6km strike, open north and south with massive, stringer or disseminated sulphides in all holes
- Final assay results include silver (Ag) mineralisation up to 8.4 g/t
- Strong surface Ag mineralisation noted, possible supergene
- Same Ag-Au-Cu-As-Mo-Co-Bi element association as identified in holes 1, 2, 4, & 5 indicative of an orogenic gold signature
- DHEM modelling located high intensity conductors adjacent to holes 3 and 8 highlighting potential new drill targets
- Thorough review of all diamond drilling results underway, particularly DHEM to rank new drill targets
- Follow-upauger geochemistry over Phil's Hill to Ablett trend planned, POW's lodged and contractor secured
Next Steps:
- Review all diamond drilling data and plan new drill targets
- Complete follow-up auger geochemistry at Phil's Hill to expand coverage along strike N and S including the Ablett Prospect
- Resample shallow core in all holes to clarify the surface Ag anomalism found in hole 8 (4m @ 5.0 g/t Ag)
Pursuit Managing Director, Mark Freeman, said:
"These assay results confirm that that the Company has located a significant mineralising system at Phil's Hill, which suggests an orogenic gold signature. Our technical team are now focussed on finding the core of the system and will be working to extend our geochemical coverage of the Project area."

Warrior Project (100%)
Pursuit Minerals Limited (ASX:PUR) ("Pursuit" or the "Company") is pleased to provide assay results for the last four drill holes (21WDD0003, 21WDD0006, 21WD0007 & 21WDD0008) from the Phil's Hill prospect diamond drilling program (Table 1, Figure 1).
A review of the results has highlighted a similar Ag-Au-Cu-As-Mo-Co-Bi anomalous mineral association as noted for the first four diamond drill holes (1, 2, 4 and 5, see ASX release 26 Oct 2021). Silver mineralisation up to 8.4 g/t is reported in the assay results (Table 2 & Appendix
- and the Company notes strong surface enrichment at a number of locations. Additional sampling of near-surface drill core across the prospect will be completed shortly along with additional sampling adjacent to the anomalous downhole zones located.

Hole 3 (Figure 3) located a number of mineralised intervals including:
- 1.35m @ 1.35 g/t Ag, 0.07% Cu from 106.6m, including 0.4m @ 3.66 g/t Ag from 106.6m
- 1.84m @ 2.95 g/t Ag from 129.1m, including 0.53m @ 7.39 g/t Ag and 0.07% Cu from 129.1m
As noted previously, this anomalism is associated with sulphide mineralisation although not all sulphide intervals are anomalous. A sub-vertical EM plate identified by DHEM to the West of hole 3 (Figure 3) is very strong at 8,000 mS and considered a high priority future drill target and potentially a higher grade "feeder" zone to mineralisation. Assays from hole 6 at plate 17a (Figure 4) confirmed the sulphide silver anomalism association noted in hole 5 as previously reported. DHEM notes an off-hole plate to the south which may warrant additional drilling in the future.

ASX RELEASE
Holes 7 and 8 were drilled at the southern plate 6a (Figure 5) and as previously reported lithologies in hole 8 are significantly more silicified and tectonised than holes to the north. A number of anomalous silver and copper intervals are noted (Table 2) in association with sulphide mineralisation and additional sampling adjacent to these zones is warranted.
The DHEM surveying notes a number of high intensity conductor plates, in particular beneath the bottom of hole 8 and this may be a "feeder" zone for the mineralisation detected.
Figure 5: Plate 6a Cross section showing sulphide mineralisation and assay anomalism, Holes 7 and 8
Downhole EM Surveying (DHEM)
Vortex Geophysics conducted downhole EM at the end of the program and subsequent modelling by Terra Resources located 17 high conductance plates (Table 3). Figure 6 shows the loops deployed around each drillhole against aeromagnetic anomalies and Figure 7 shows the large number of plates generated from the surveying at quite different orientations. The large number of plates closely spaced explains the difficulty in directly targeting mineralisation during drilling. The various different orientations, especially the subvertical, sub-parallel to drilling plates modelled in holes 3 and 8 suggest these features might represent "feeder" zones to the mineralisation observed.
