• Wide zones of copper-gold mineralisation found 160m north of current resource boundary
• Significant intercepts include 44m @ 0.52% Cu, 0.14g/t Au
• Mineralisation extends over a 1.2km strike length and remains open to the north
• Ongoing drilling to test depth, strike, and lateral extensions
• Assays from first diamond hole expected in 3-4 weeks

Solstice Minerals Ltd. announced initial results from Phase 2 Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling at its Nanadie Copper-Gold Project in Western Australia, which successfully intersected wide zones of mineralisation 160 meters to the north of the current 2022 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) boundary. The drilling confirmed that the host gabbro package and associated zones of disseminated and foliation-parallel chalcopyrite extend through this area. Significant intercepts include 44 meters at 0.52% copper (Cu) and 0.14 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) from 93 meters in NANRC030, and 32 meters at 0.60% Cu and 0.18g/t Au from 247 meters to the end of hole in NANRC029. The mineralisation extends over a strike length of approximately 1.2 kilometers and remains open to the north. The results will drive further step-out exploration drilling northwards, as well as the completion of systematic infill RC drillholes. Phase 2 RC and diamond drilling is progressing at pace, with 11 diamond 'tails' now completed for over 2,500 meters of core, as well as 18 RC holes drilled along the length of the mineralised system. Processing of diamond core will continue over the coming months, with progressive and ongoing dispatch of samples from site. Assays from the first diamond hole, NANRCD004, are expected in the coming 3-4 weeks.

The company expects ongoing drilling to test depth, strike, and lateral extensions, with assays from the first diamond hole expected in the coming 3-4 weeks.
