Project Description
Weednanna has existing mineral resources of 1.1-million tonnes grading 5.1 g/t gold.

The mineralisation remain open along strike and at depth, with significant potential to increase the existing mineral resources.

Capital Expenditure
Capital costs have been estimated at $44.4-million.

Planned Start/End Date

Latest Developments
The positive outcomes of the Weednanna scoping study have prompted Alliance to start further drilling to:

• infill the inferred mineral resources to increase the classification to indicated mineral resources; and

• to define the limits of and extend the existing gold shoots, and explore for new gold shoots within the deposit.

The aim of this work is to develop knowledge of the deposit to a level that will support
a higher level study (prefeasibility or feasibility study); increase the mineral resources and start the project approvals process. The work programme is expected to take 12 months to complete.

Key Contracts and Suppliers
Mining One (scoping study) and BHM Process Consultants (scoping study metallurgical work).
