14km Gold and Antimony Soil Anomaly Defined at Pacgold’s St George Project

Exploration Breakthrough at St George

Pacgold Limited (ASX, PGO) has announced compelling early-stage exploration results from its St George Gold-Antimony Project in northeast Queensland. A systematic soil geochemical survey has delineated a substantial 14-kilometre-long anomaly rich in gold and antimony, straddling two key prospects named Fence and Ridgeline. These anomalies align with prominent mineralised structures known to host gold-antimony bearing quartz veins, underscoring the project's potential in a historically productive mineral province.

Geological Context and Historical Significance

The St George Project sits within the Palaeozoic Hodgkinson Province, a region with a legacy of gold and antimony mining dating back to the late 19th century. The Hodgkinson Formation’s complex sedimentary and structural geology provides a fertile environment for mineralisation, with past production including notable goldfields such as Palmer and Hodgkinson. The newly identified anomalies at Fence and Ridgeline extend over 7 kilometres each and remain open along strike, suggesting a large, continuous mineralised system yet to be fully tested.

Advancing Towards Drilling

Pacgold’s exploration team has completed initial soil sampling on a 400m by 50m grid, with infill sampling at 200m spacing underway. Assay results from these infill samples are anticipated in December 2025, which will enable the company to refine drill targets. Notably, no modern drilling has been conducted on these anomalies to date, positioning the upcoming Q2 2026 drilling campaign as a critical milestone. The program will aim to test the depth and grade continuity of the mineralisation, potentially unlocking significant resource upside.

Strategic Partnership and Future Plans

The St George Project is held under a farm-in and joint venture agreement with Hardrock Mineral Exploration Pty Ltd, through which Pacgold can earn up to 100% ownership. This arrangement accelerates Pacgold’s exploration momentum in a region known for antimony-rich veins, a commodity gaining renewed interest globally. Alongside soil geochemistry, the company has also completed geophysical surveys and a first-pass drilling program at the historic St George Antimony Mine, with assay results pending.

Outlook

With a robust pipeline of assay data expected early next year and a planned drilling campaign on the horizon, Pacgold is positioning itself to make multiple significant discoveries in what is emerging as one of Australia’s premier gold-antimony provinces. The combination of extensive soil anomalies, structural geology, and historical mining data provides a strong foundation for advancing the project towards resource definition.
