Gold Assays up to 25.1g/t Au at Fry Lake Gold Project
HIGHLIGHTS
• Channel sampling has identified shallow high-grade gold at the Flicka Zone with best results of:
o
0.25m @ 11.6g/t Au from Vein 1
o
0.6m @ 6.7g/t Au from Vein 1
o
1m @ 13.6g/t Au from Vein 2

o
0.5m @ 17.7g/t Au from Vein 2
o
1m @ 9.9g/t Au from Vein 3
o
including 0.7m @ 13.2g/t Au
1.7m @ 5.2g/t Au from Vein 3

• High-grade gold assays from surface demonstrate the strong gold tenor of the mineralised veins and
reinforce the potential for follow-up drilling at Fry Lake.
• Assay results are pending for soil and rock chip sampling completed across four target areas where
2024 soil sampling returned anomalous gold and copper results1, including samples with values of up
to 17.8g/t Au and 2,420ppm Cu.
Red Mountain Mining Limited (ASX: RMX) a Gold and Critical Minerals exploration and development Company,
is pleased to announce high-grade gold assay results from its exploration program at the Flicka Lake claim, part
of RMX’s 100%-owned Fry Lake Gold-Copper Project in Ontario, Canada.
Managing Director, Lincoln Liu commented:
“A series of shallow, high-grade channel sampling results at our Fry Lake Gold Project underscores the significant
potential of the tenement. Fry Lake is now primed for targeted follow-up drilling. The team at Red Mountain is
grateful to have the continued support of Fladgate Exploration, who had elected to take part of their
consideration in RMX shares. Having partners who are prepared to back their work with equity underscores the
strength of the project, the confidence in the exploration strategy and the commitment of all parties involved.”

Channel sampling returns high grade gold results in the Flicka Zone
Channel sampling results successfully confirm RMX’s 2024 grab sampling 1 and demonstrate the high tenor of
gold mineralisation associated with the three main vein prospects at Flicka Lake, with all three main vein
prospects returning results of > 5ppm Au (Figure 2; Table 1). High grade intervals with all samples >5ppm Au
are labelled on Figure 2 and show strike continuity in the NNW direction. Table 1 shows all samples containing
>0.5ppm Au, grouped into mineralised intervals, where continuous. As is noted in the table, many of the channel
samples commenced and/or finished in mineralised material, many of the mineralised intervals remain open in
one, or both directions. The Flicka Zone veins are a gold-dominant system (Appendix 1).
Best results include:
o
0.25m @ 11.6g/t Au & 0.6m @ 6.72g/t Au from Vein 1
o
1m @ 13.64g/t Au (including 0.35m @ 25.1g/t Au) & 0.5m @ 17.7g/t Au from Vein 2
o
1m @ 9.91g/t Au (including 0.7m @ 13.2g/t Au) & 1.7m @ 5.16g/t Au (including 1m @ 7.91g/t
Au) from Vein 3

The 2025 exploration work, which was completed in August, targeted both historical and recently identified
highly anomalous gold and copper results. A channel sampling campaign was completed across three historically
known high-grade gold-bearing quartz reefs at the Flicka Zone (Figure 1 and Figure 2), returning strongly
encouraging results for gold.
A total of 17 channel samples, ranging from 1m to 6m in length, were completed across the Flicka Zone, with
14 of these located within 30m of the lake shore on the previously identified Vein #1, Vein #2 and Vein #3
(Figure 2).
Additionally, close-interval (25m grid) soil and rock chip sampling has been completed across four priority areas,
to follow up anomalous soil gold and copper results from RMX’s 2024 sampling (Figure 1), with assay results
for this work expected before the end of September.
Completion of planned soil grids and rock chip sampling to test for gold and copper mineralisation
As shown in Figure 2, RMX’s field team also completed as planned the collection of 1012 soil samples and 43
rock chip grab samples across four priority areas, following up anomalous gold and copper in soil values from
the Company’s 2024 soil sampling program 2, which are interpreted to indicate additional potential for concealed
high-grade vein-hosted gold mineralisation, similar to that exposed at the Flicka Zone and possible copper-rich
polymetallic volcanic-hosted base metal sulfide mineralisation. The four areas have been soil sampled on a 25mspaced grid, with rock chip samples collected where available within the target areas.
Sampling lines were carefully mapped using high-accuracy GPS and completed by hand-cutting across the
target rocks. Where practical, sample breaks reflect lithological changes, such as changes in deformation,
alteration and vein intensity. Samples were submitted to AGAT Laboratories, Calgary, Alberta, Canada for
multielement analysis using 4 acid digest with an ICP-OES finish and gold via 50g charge fire assay with an AAS
finish. Appendix 1 provides further details on where each sampling line commenced, the direction followed, the
length of the sampled intervals, and the resulting gold assay results.

North Grid
Including duplicates, 523 samples were collected from the North Grid (Figure 1), covering an area where three
2024 soil samples returned in excess of 1g/t Au (maximum 17.8g/t Au) and two contained over 500ppm Cu
(maximum 1630ppm Cu). The highest copper sample also contains 6.32g/t Au, 2.09g/t Ag, 818ppm Pb and
445ppm Zn, implying potential for copper-rich polymetallic volcanic-hosted massive sulfide mineralisation;
whereas the gold-only anomalies indicate potential for the presence of high-grade vein-hosted gold
mineralisation, similar to that exposed at the Flicka Zone.
Northwest Grid
Including duplicates, 272 samples were collected from the Northwest Grid, which surrounds a 2024 soil sample
that contains 0.82g/t Au and also encompasses a sample close to the tenement boundary that contains elevated
(0.017g/t) gold. This area is considered to show potential for concealed vein-hosted gold mineralisation.
Central Grid
Including duplicates, 86 samples were collected from the Central Grid (Figure 1), centered around a single soil
sample that returned 2,420ppm Cu, which is the highest copper result of the 2024 survey, along with 0.74ppm
Ag, 207ppm Pb and 115ppm Zn. Although the sample returned a below detection gold assay of <0.005ppm, its
polymetallic signature suggests potential for copper-rich volcanic-hosted massive sulfide mineralisation.
South Grid
Including duplicates, 131 samples were collected from the South Grid (Figure 1), which lies immediately to the
south of the Fry Lake #9 gold prospect and encompass two 2024 soil samples containing over 500ppm Cu
(maximum 858ppm Cu) and two that contain elevated (0.029g/t and 0.012g/t) gold. Like the North Grid, the
South Grid area has potential for both vein-hosted gold and copper-rich polymetallic volcanic-hosted base
metal mineralisation.

Exploration by Fladgate under a partnership agreement with RMX
As announced on 24 July 20253, RMX entered into a partnership agreement with Fladgate Exploration Consulting
Corporation (“Fladgate”) to conduct the 2025 exploration program at the Flicka Lake prospect. Under the
partnership agreement, Fladgate agreed to accept RMX Shares as consideration, in-lieu of its normal contract
rate in cash. The agreement demonstrates Fladgate’s confidence in the potential of RMX’s Fry Lake Gold-Copper
Project.
Geological Background
The Flicka Lake claims lie in the Archaean Meen-Dempster Greenstone Belt within the Uchi Lake Subprovince of
the Superior Province of Canada. Flicka Lake is one of four recently acquired 100% RMX-owned properties within
the relatively underexplored southwest portion of the Belt (Figure 3).
The Superior Province is globally recognised as a Tier 1 exploration destination for synvolcanic base metal and
structurally controlled Archaean orogenic gold mineralisation. Numerous orogenic gold prospects and mineral
occurrences are recorded for the Meen-Dempster Greenstone Belt, including significant historical production
from the Golden Patricia, Pickle Crow and Dona Mines (Figure 3). The four 100% RMX owned properties,
collectively termed the Fry Lake Project, have seen only limited previous exploration and are considered to have
significant potential for undiscovered orogenic gold and possible base metal mineralisation.
The Archaean geology of the Flicka Lake property primarily comprises mafic and intermediate metavolcanic
units that have been intruded locally by a series of gabbroic sills. Metasedimentary units are rare and consist of
a few isolated outcrops of conglomerate, greywacke and banded iron formations up to 5m in thickness. Local
metamorphism ranges from greenschist facies in the southern part of the property, where chlorite and epidote
are more prevalent within mafic and intermediate units, to amphibolite facies further north, where hornblende
is more abundant.
