Austin Metals Limited announced an update on exploration activities at the Shadow prospect area within the Austin Gold Project in Western Australia. The company remains committed to greenfield exploration targets and is particularly focused on the Shadow prospect area that occurs in close proximity to Musgrave Minerals. Musgrave continues to enjoy incredible success in delineating more high-grade structures including recent bonanza gold intersections at White Heat and Big Sky located less than 1km from the Austin Metals property boundary.

Much of the Shadow area is largely masked by soil cover of variable depth which means advanced geochemical and geophysical techniques will become increasingly important in the Company's search for a breakthrough discovery in this highly prospective area. It is important to note that in 2018 Musgrave Minerals effectively utilised ground gravity surveys to identify and interpret the Starlight and White Light high grade discovery structures identify multiple targets beneath shallow soil and lake sediment cover. Austin Metals acknowledges the excellent work by Musgrave Minerals which now provides an opportunity to utilise similar methodologies in the adjacent landholding at Shadow that has been shown to display many similarities including the shadow fault complex.
