    GREEN CRITICAL MINERALS AWARDS DRILLING CONTRACT FOR BOULIA Cu-Au PROJECT
    • Leading drilling services provider DDH1 Drilling Pty Ltd has been awarded the drilling contract for the maiden drilling campaign at the Boulia Project (Copper, Gold, Molybdenum).
    • Drill planning is well progressed, pre-mobilisation activities are advanced and drilling is anticipated to commence in August.
    • Drilling is targeting shallow magnetic, gravity, and geochemical anomalies identified through previous exploration work.
    Green Critical Minerals Ltd (‘GCM’ or ‘the Company’ which holds a 100% interest in its Boulia copper gold molybdenum project (‘Boulia Project’ is pleased to provide an update on its proposed drilling activities.
    Notice of Award and Drill Planning
    Planning for the maiden drilling campaign at the Boulia Project is well advanced, with GCM awarding leading drilling services provider DDH1 Drilling Pty Ltd (‘DDH1’ the drilling contract.
    Following the award of these drilling works to DDH1, GCM will now finalise the mobilisation activities associated with the drilling and anticipates being on ground and commencing drilling in August.
    GCM’s initial drilling plan comprises four angled reverse circulation percussion holes, strategically designed to evaluate shallow magnetic, gravity, and geochemical anomalies identified through previous exploration work. GCM has identified two priority areas for the initial drilling on its granted tenement EPM 28253, Paton Downs in the north and Lorna Downs to the south.
    Panton Downs
    The Paton Downs drillholes, shown as Hole C and Hole D are designed to test the modeled magnetic body and a parallel gravity target, respectively (Figures 1-3).

    Boulia Exploration Potential
    The Boulia region, extending northwards towards the renowned Mount Isa-Cloncurry mineral belt, hosts widespread low-grade copper, lead, and zinc mineralization associated with vein and breccia systems controlled by fault structures. These structures have also contributed to the formation of epithermal veining and brecciation in the overlying Eromanga Basin sediments.
    GCM's interpretation suggests that the widespread mineralization and veining observed in the area may be driven by porphyry intrusions, manifested as unexplained shallow magnetic bodies within the project area. This interpretation has gained significant support from the Geoscience Australia Heavy Mineral Survey, which identified the regional maximum values of high-grade copper sulphide minerals chalcocite and bornite, as well as the aluminum sulphate mineral alunite, in a sample collected from the Hamilton River running through the project area.
    The chalcocite-alunite association is a strong indicator of the upper portions of porphyry copper deposits, further reinforcing GCM's exploration model. Additionally, a nearby sample site revealed enrichment in skarn minerals such as diopside, garnet, and wollastonite, lending credence to the potential presence of skarns under the alluvial cover.

    Project Permits and Location
    The Boulia project located 200 km south of Mount Isa in northwest Queensland, comprises two granted
    exploration permits and three submitted applications, see Figure 1, covering a total area of 1,597km2.
    The Boulia region has recently become an area of exploration interest for copper, gold and base metals, with large projects being undertaken by AngloAmerican, Sandfire, Rio Tinto, and a Plutonic – Lion Selection joint venture.
    The AngloAmerican block of tenements lies immediately to the east of GCM’s exploration project. The Sandfire, Rio, and Plutonic Lion Selection projects straddle the Queensland - Northern Territory border 120 km to the west.

    Soil sampling by GCM involved sampling at a 10cm depth at mostly 500m and 1 kilometre intervals. The 1 kg samples were from clear sites located by GPS in GDA94 zone 54. The sieve size used here was the ultrafine fraction (75 microns).
