• Further assay results from RC drilling program at McNabs East, delineating a shallow, robust zone of gold mineralisation
• Drilling at McNabs East continues to intersect high-grade gold mineralisation, including 2m @ 23.66g/t Au from 79m
• Aircore drilling has confirmed a large exploration target ~2km east of McNabs East

Ordell Minerals Limited (ASX: ORD) has reported further significant assay results from drilling completed late last year at its flagship Barimaia Gold Project in Western Australia. The results are from a Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program completed in December 2025 as part of an ongoing program to systematically test the McNabs East Prospect and its strike extensions. The drilling has confirmed a shallow, robust zone of gold mineralisation at McNabs East, with key results including 19m @ 2.29g/t Au from 53m, 16m @ 1.84g/t Au from 19m, and 7m @ 3.19g/t Au from 10m. Drilling on a section further to the east returned high-grade gold of 2m @ 23.66g/t Au from 79m, including 1m @ 46.8g/t Au. This intercept forms part of a strong zone of mineralisation defined over a 200m vertical extent that remains untested along the interpreted strike. Aircore drilling has also confirmed a large exploration target approximately 2km east of McNabs East, with bottom-of-hole assays of up to 2.88g/t Au. Drilling is scheduled to re-commence next week, targeting extensions to the known mineralisation and new discoveries at McNabs East, as well as along the +7km of the known strike of the host granodiorite intrusions.

Drilling will continue in 2026 targeting immediate extensions to McNabs East while also aiming to unlock potential new discoveries within the +7km long strike extent of the prospective host granodiorite intrusions.
