Great Western Exploration Limited announced that gold anomalism has been confirmed and significantly extended at the Company's Firebird Gold Project. The Firebird Gold Project is located within the Youanmi Greenstone Belt, and 2.5km west of Western Gold's Gold Duke Project, which contains several Mineral Resources reported to JORC 2012 standard. The Firebird Gold Project comprises 100% owned GTE ground and the adjacent Joyner's Project JV, a joint venture held by Jindalee Resources where Great Western can earn 80%.

Soil sampling completed prior to Great Western's project interest defined a large zone of gold anomalism measuring 2.1km x 350m wide. The Company recently completed Ultrafine+ soil sampling to confirm and extend this anomalism. Results from this programme confirmed and significantly extended gold anomalism, with broad gold anomalous gold zones now up to 3.7km long and 450m wide.

Further, several strong contrasting and discrete higher tenor anomalies within the broader anomalism were delineated and not evident in the initial sampling. The higher tenor anomalies are coincident with NNW-SSE structural trends, consistent with Archean Gold Lode Deposits of the region and are priority areas of interest. Great Western has prioritised exploration at this compelling project, which will include geological and structural modelling plus drill testing of these gold anomalous zones.
