SOUTHERN CROSS GOLD HITS 3.9 m @ 124.6 g/t GOLD IN INFILL PROGRAM

Systematic Drilling at Sunday Creek Unveils More High-Grade Zones and New Near-Surface Discovery

Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd (https://www.southerncrossgold.com) (ASX:SX2) has reported new assay results from three diamond drill holes at its 100%-owned Sunday Creek gold-antimony project in Victoria, Australia. The holes—targeting the Rising Sun and Apollo prospects—highlight the success of the company’s systematic infill drilling strategy.

The latest intercepts confirm both the reproduction of high-grade zones and the potential for further mineralisation through newly identified vein sets.

Key Results Include:

SDDSC162: 3.9 m @ 124.9 g/t AuEq (124.6 g/t gold, 0.1% antimony) from 705.9 m depth, marking the tenth-best interval drilled to date at Sunday Creek.
Individual assays up to 2,110 g/t Au, representing the seventh-best gold assay in the project’s history.
SDDSC164: Fourth +100 g/t sample intersected within 180 m of surface at Apollo prospect.

Additional Highlights:

Two infill holes successfully replicated high-grade mineralisation, validating the geological model.
Infill drilling also discovered new vein sets beyond original targets.
A new near-surface undrilled host zone was identified, including a 60 m zone east of the Golden Orb Fault.
Gold-antimony intersections included 87.1 g/t Au with 21.6% Sb and 62.3 g/t Au with 20.1% Sb.

Michael Hudson, President & CEO, states:

These results continue to demonstrate the success of our combined systematic infill and expansion drilling strategy. We’re not only hitting exceptional grades where our geological model predicts – like the 3.9 m @ 124.6 g/t gold in hole SDDSC162 – but we’re consistently discovering additional vein sets beyond our original targets. This validates our geological understanding while proving more mineralization when we infill gaps.

Additionally, we’ve discovered up 60 m of new near-surface prospective ground adjacent to the historic Gladys Mine which had the longest strike length of a mineralized vein set mined on this field at 104 m. This gives us cost-effective drilling targets in an area with proven historical production, while our high antimony results enhance strategic value. With a treasury of A$170m and the commencement of a drill program surpassing 200 km, we are positioned for accelerated expansion and derisking.
