HIGHLIGHTS: Latest Hurricane camp drilling continues to validate, connect and extend the modelled wireframes underpinning Benz's recently released Glenburgh Exploration Target and advance the drill-supported target toward maiden Mineral Resource definition . Significant shallow, high-grade mineralisation discovered between Zone 126 and Zone 102 , linking the two deposits for the first time, materially expanding the Hurricane Camp and highlighting the potential for a substantial open-pit opportunity across the broader Hurricane trend. Highlights include: 70m at 2.9 g/t Au from 214m, incl. 37m at 5.2 g/t Au (26HZ135) 56m at 1.6 g/t Au from 162m, incl. 17m at 3.6 g/t Au (26HZ125) 49m at 1.7 g/t Au from 336m, incl. 23m at 3.2 g/t Au (26HZ131) Hurricane trend continues to significantly grow along newly discovered NE plunge corridor 14m at 8.9 g/t Au from 383m, incl. 5m at 24.2 g/t Au (26HZ105) 86m at 1.0 g/t Au from 359m, incl. 37m at 1.4 g/t Au (26HZ097) 64m at 1.4 g/t Au from 441m, incl. 12m at 5.0 g/t Au (26HZ147) Z126 Trend : High grade lenses are now linking and adding volume into a larger more continuous gold bearing trend 79m at 2.8 g/t Au from 499m, incl. 38m at 5.0 g/t Au (26HZ145) 27m at 6.4 g/t Au from 432m (26HZ145) 20m at 6.3 g/t Au from 160 m , incl. 8m at 14.7 g/t Au (26HZ059) Major 400 m down-plunge step-out opens a major new underground growth opportunity at Hurricane: First pass drilling more than 400 m down plunge of Zone 126 has intersected the mineralised system in line with Benz's down-plunge projection, potentially doubling the Hurricane search space.
