Westgold Resources Limited announced that following completion of positive development studies, the Fender gold deposit is set to become the Company's next underground mine in the Cue area. Fender is located approximately 3.5km south of the Big Bell mine and will become the third underground mine feeding the company's 1.4Mtpa Tuckabianna processing hub. Fender Overview: Fender was historically mined by Normandy in the 1990's with Westgold completing a cut-back during 2020 bringing the pit to approximately 100m vertical depth. Life of mine open pit production totals 402,000 tonnes at 1.96g/t Au for 25,300oz. Under Westgold's ownership ore was trucked to the Tuckabianna processing hub. Importantly, mining of the last 20 metres of the pit revealed continuous lodes of higher-grade ore, which have been confirmed by deeper drilling beneath the pit. Example drill intercepts include: 10m at 4.33/t Au from 378m [BBDD0013]; 18m at 3.42g/t Au from 188m [BBRC0033]; 21m @ 3.34g/t Au from 104m [FDD015] and 7m @ 4.61 g/t Au from 216m [ BBRC0020]. The single mineralised lode at Fender varies in scale typically averaging 5-8m in true width. The lode is subvertical and present as an attractive simple mining proposition over the currently defined 300m strike. Mining studies have determined that Fender will be developed as an underground mine supported by the extensive surface infrastructure and technical teams available at the proximate Big Bell mine. Fender has a current Resource endowment of circa 450oz/vertical metre.
