Ikkari has a National Instrument 43-101 inferred mineral resource estimate of 49 million tonnes (“Mt”) at 2.5 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) for 3.95 million ounces (see Sept. 13, 2021 press release) 1. Over 44,000 metres (“m”) of drilling has now been completed at Ikkari since the maiden resource statement in September 2021 (location of new holes see figure 3), focused on upgrading and expanding the Ikkari resource estimate. Elsewhere, regional exploration continues with around 25,000m drilled on targets excluding Ikkari since September 2021.

Highlights

New drilling at Ikkari extends to the west a previously identified zone of mineralisation at depth (figure 4a):

  • #122031 returned
    • 31m of 1.1g/t Au from 173m
    • 16m of 2.2g/t Au from 271m
    • 13m of 5.8g/t Au from 431m, including 1m of 51.7g/t Au
    • 30m of 2.8g/t Au from 471m (378m vertical)

In central Ikkari, further high-grade results were received, and mineralisation was intersected at depth beyond the limits of previous drilling (figure 4b):

  • #121071 returned
    • 33m of 6.5g/t Au from 299m
    • and 16m of 3.0g/t Au from 445m (413m vertical)

Infill drilling in the west of the Ikkari deposit continues to confirm broad gold intercepts from surface (beneath till), as well as at depth at the margin of September 2021’s maiden resource estimate):

  • #122066 returned 72m of 2.2g/t Au from 10.4m (9m vertical, sub-crop under till cover)
  • #122058 returned 53m of 2.2g/t Au, from 10m (9m vertical)
  • #122053 returned 41m of 2.5g/t Au, from 207m (152m vertical) and 19m of 2.7g/t Au, from 493m (377m vertical)
  • #122025 returned 61m of 1.7g/t Au, from 98m (73m vertical) and 20m of 3.6g/t Au, from 321m (241m vertical)

Drilling at Heinä South, 300m south of the main Heinä South trend and 800m northwest of Ikkari (figure 5), has intersected the following new mineralisation:

  • #122072 returned 2m of 4.9 g/t Au from 131m, 15m of 1.1 g/t Au from 142m and 3m of 2.5 g/t Au from 204m

James Withall, CEO of Rupert Resources commented “The new drilling at Ikkari continues to expand the mineralised envelope with the infill drilling undertaken this winter season essential to improving resource confidence and maintaining the permitting timeline for the project.  We continue to increase our understanding of the broader mineralising system through drilling and a recently completed geophysical survey. This will inform our next round of step out drilling at Ikkari and our exploration programmes to make further discoveries of scale in the region.  Ikkari remains the cornerstone discovery in a potential new mining camp in a tier one jurisdiction.”

New Ikkari drill results

Results from a further 18 holes (figures 1 and 2) continue to define broad mineralised zones, from surface, within the Ikkari orebody. A further 26 holes for over 8,000m remain pending. New results are mostly from the west of the deposit and demonstrate consistently mineralised intercepts at shallow depths e.g. #122066 returned 72m of 2.2g/t Au from 10.4m (9m vertical, sub-crop under till cover) as well as identifying deeper zones of mineralisation e.g. 47m of 1.9g/t Au from 168m, suggesting continuity to depth. Similarly, hole #122031 returned 30m of 2.8g/t Au from 471m (378m vertical).

Hole 122071, in the central part of the deposit confirms the main high-grade zone (33m of 6.5g/t Au from 299m) and further extends mineralisation to depth in the south (16m of 3.0g/t Au from 445m, 413m vertical and 6m of 2.0g/t Au from 503m, 465m vertical). These results extend the mineralised zone by up to 80m depth on this section.

New Heinä South drill results

At Heinä South, infill drilling along the 1km long mineralised trend further confirms mineralisation, with results from #122050 of 7m of 4.5g/t Au from 153m, #122063 of 4m of 4.0g/t Au from 112m and 3m of 2.1g/t Au from 205m, and hole #122054 with results of 5m of 2.7g/t Au from 109m.

A further 300m to the south of the Heinä South trend, initial results from a second, similarly-mineralised zone, parallel to the trend, indicate multiple mineralised zones. #122072 returned 2m at 4.9 g/t Au from 131m, 15m at 1.1 g/t Au from 142m and 3m at 2.5 g/t Au from 204m (figure 5). Results from several additional holes in this area are still pending.

Geological interpretation of Ikkari

Ikkari was discovered using systematic regional exploration that initially focused on geochemical sampling of the bedrock/till interface through glacial till deposits of 5m to 40m thickness. No outcrop is present, and topography is dominated by low-lying swamp areas.

The Ikkari deposit occurs within rocks that have been regionally mapped as 2.05-2.15 billion years (“Ga”) old Savukoski group greenschist-metamorphosed mafic-ultramafic volcanic rocks, part of the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt (“CLGB”). Gold mineralisation is largely confined to the structurally modified unconformity at a significant domain boundary. Younger sedimentary lithologies are complexly interleaved, with intensely altered ultramafic rocks, and the mineralized zone is bounded to the north by a steeply N-dipping cataclastic zone. In general, alteration and structure appear to be sub-vertical, with lithologies generally dipping ~70 degrees north.

The main mineralized zone is strongly altered and characterised by intense veining and foliation that frequently overprint original textures. An early phase of finely laminated, grey ankerite/dolomite veins is overprinted by stockwork-like irregular siderite ± quartz ± chlorite ± sulphide veins. These vein arrays are often deformed with shear-related boudinage and in situ brecciation. Magnetite and/or haematite are common, in association with pyrite. Hydrothermal alteration commonly comprises quartz-dolomite-chlorite-magnetite (±haematite). Gold is hosted by disseminated and vein-related pyrite. Multi-phase breccias are well developed within the mineralised zone, with early silicified cataclastic phases overprinted by late, carbonate- iron-oxide- rich, hydrothermal breccias which display a subvertical control. All breccias frequently host disseminated pyrite, and are often associated with bonanza gold grades, particularly where magnetite or haematite is prevalent. In the sedimentary lithologies, albite alteration is intense and pervasive, with pyrite-magnetite (± gold) hosted in veinlets in brittle fracture zones.

Geological interpretation of Heinä South

Mineralisation at the Heinä South prospect is covered with up to 10m of transported glacial till with restricted access in winter due to low lying wet ground conditions. Gold mineralisation is associated with multi-phase pyrite within quartz-pyrite and massive pyrite veins and lenses, as part of a stockwork of quartz-carbonate veins. Zones of massive pyrite contain the highest grades (up to 10 – 40g/t Au) with disseminated sulphide zone containing anomalous (<0.5g/t) gold. Early quartz-carbonate veins are overprinted by extensional veins that include coarse-grained pyrite and form sub-parallel trends, broadly related to lithological contacts between sediments and mafic-intermediate intrusives, although mineralisation also occurs within both lithologies.

About the Rupert Lapland Project

The Rupert Lapland Project is located in the epicentre of the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt, Northern Finland, where the company has made six new discoveries including the high quality Ikkari Project with an inferred mineral resource estimate of 49Mt at 2.5 g/t gold for 3.95 million ounces1. The Rupert Lapland Project also holds the permitted Pahtavaara mine and mill (on active care & maintenance) within a regional land package of some 735km2. The Company acquired the project for USD2.5m in 2016 and is undertaking exploration both at the existing mine and across the region to demonstrate the potential for significant economic mineralisation. The Ikkari deposit and five other discoveries are located in a structural corridor that lies between the Kittilä Group allochthon to the north and the younger Kumpu Group basin to the south. The mineralised area is dominated by large E-W to ENE trending faults which have controlled broad to isoclinal folding within the sediment-dominated (Savukoski Group) rock package. A complex network of cross cutting structures has focused multi-stage fluid flow, with gold mineralisation associated with massive to fine-grained disseminated sulphides and concentrated at favourable structural intersections.

1 National Instrument 43-101 inferred mineral resource estimate (“MRE”) for Ikkari of 49 million tonnes (“Mt”) at 2.5 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”), for 3.95 million ounces (“oz”) in total (see the technical report entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report: Ikkari Project, Finland” with an effective date of September 13, 2021 prepared by Brian Wolfe, Principal Consultant, International Resource Solutions Pty Ltd., an independent qualified person under NI 43-101: the “Ikkari Technical Report”).

The MRE has been estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) “Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practice Guidelines”. It was calculated using the multiple indicator kriging method (MIK) and is classified as an inferred mineral resource as defined by the CIM. Numbers are affected by rounding. The MRE was reported using cut-offs of 0.6g/t Au for mineralisation potentially mineable by open pit methods and 1.2g/t Au for that portion that is potentially extractable by underground methods. The cut-offs were based on a gold price of US$1430/oz Au, with a 92% overall recovery and costs derived from benchmarks and first principles (see: the Ikkari Technical Report). Mineral Resources do not include Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that any part of the Mineral Resources will be converted to Mineral Reserves.
