Baker's Gold Project - Drilling Results Update
Sunrise Resources plc is pleased to announce a 25% increase in
gold grades from re-analysis of the reported high-grade drill
samples at its Baker's Gold Project in Western Australia when
compared to those announced on 29 June 2021.
Highlights:
Ø Routine re-analysis of high-grade samples carried out to
evaluate possible nugget effect.
Ø New reporting interval in Hole 21SBRC002 on DLR4 Target,
analysed by 1kg bulk cyanide leach and leach tail fire assay:
2m grading 14.4 g/t gold from 64m downhole including 1m grading
26.5 g/t gold.
Ø Previously reported interval from Hole 21SBRC002 on DLR4
Target analysed by 50g fire assay:
2m grading 11.5 g/t gold from 64m downhole including 1m grading
20.4 g/t gold.
Ø 95% of contained gold is cyanide leachable.
Commenting today, Executive Chairman Patrick Cheetham said :
"This is a pleasing result as the prime objective in conducting the
re-analysis was to make sure the original analysis did not
over-report the gold content due to the potential for the nugget
effect. The higher values being reported today are considered to be
a more accurate measure of the gold grade due to the larger sample
size."

Detailed Information
The Baker's Gold Project is located 25 kilometres south-east of
Meekatharra in the Murchison Goldfield of Western Australia. It
lies on the eastern limb of the Meekatharra Greenstone Belt which
has yielded several million ounces of gold and contains a number of
present and past producing gold mines.
The Company's Baker's prospecting licences contain a number of
areas where metal detecting has previously produced significant
quantities of gold nuggets and gold-quartz specimens.
Information on the drill programme caried out at Baker's, and
the results obtained, is contained in the Company's announcement of
29 June 2021.
In any sample containing gold, the gold grains can be variable
in size and/or unevenly distributed through the sample (so called
nuggety distribution). Consequently, the larger the sample the more
likely that it will contain a representative number and size of
gold grains.
Routinely individual drill samples of approx. 2-4kg are
submitted to the analytical laboratory where typically they are
crushed to a size 70% below 2mm and then a split off the crushed
sample, typically 250g-1kg is pulverised to a size of 85% below 75
microns. An aliquot ("charge") is taken from the pulverised
material for extraction and measurement of the gold content and the
balance of the pulp, the pulp reject, is stored.
In traditional wet chemical methods only 0.25-0.75 grammes of
pulverised sample is chemically digested for gold extraction. A
fire assay method is preferred because a larger (10-50g) charge is
used for gold extraction and measurement and the extraction is
usually considered total.
The analytical results reported on 29 June 2021 were for 50g
fire assays. Since reporting, and as a check to eliminate any
possible nugget effect, the pulp rejects from four one-metre drill
samples comprising the two one-metre drill samples previously
reported and the sample one metre either side were re-submitted for
analysis by 1kg cyanide leach. In this method, a 1kg sample is
leached with a cyanide solution to extract the cyanide soluble
gold. The leach residue (tail) was then assayed by 50g fire assay
to allow determination of the total gold content.
This combined method has the advantage that gold is extracted
from a much larger sample and it eliminates or at least reduces the
nugget effect.
The table below shows the results of the original analysis (50g
fire assay) and the re-analysis (1kg cyanide leach and 50g fire
assay of the leach tail):
Results indicate that gold was previously under-reported, and
the high-grade intersection is now reported as 2m grading 14.4 g/t
gold from 64m downhole including 1m grading 26.5 g/t gold.
The results also show that 95% of the gold in the sample is
cyanide soluble, a favourable metallurgical indication.

2. Samples were collected every metre of the drilling run and
transported under chain of custody to ALS Minerals facilities in
Perth, Western Australia (ALS) for sample preparation and analysis.
Samples were prepared using method code PREP-31Y. Samples were
originally analysed by method AU-AA26, a 50g fire assay with AAS
finish. Samples were subsequently re-analysed using method codes
An-CN12/ ME-CON02.
3. ALS carries out duplicate and standard materials analysis as
part of its internal QA/QC procedures. Sunrise QA/QC standard
samples were also inserted into the sample run as part of the
original sample submission.
