East-west section of significant results received for Rubicon drilling during Q2 FY22.

ElevenPode diamond drillholes targeting the Pode and associated satellite structures returned significant intercept results during the quarter. A new satellite lode was intercepted in three holes with results from PODRT21174 returning 0.5 m @ 19.8 g/t. Drilling in the quarter also showed potential for the Typhon lode to be extended to the north, with PODRT20379 intercepting 0.7 m @ 23.6 g/t.

Falcon Lodes were also intercepted in PODRT21007 and PODRT21009 with significant results including 0.6 m @ 39.7 g/t and 0.10 m @ 146.1 g/t respectively.
