SIGNIFICANT SILVER FIELDWORK ASSAYS FROM
ELIZABETH HILL
Highlights
• Silver assays of up to 490 g/t silver returned from float and rock chip sampling
• Multiple samples also returned elevated copper (up to 0.42% Cu) and gold (up
to 0.19 g/t Au)
• Distribution of silver-rich float samples indicates potential for additional
source areas to the north (~200-500m) and south (~200m) of the historic
Elizabeth Hill high-grade silver mine
• Follow up works have commenced on site including trenching and additional
sampling works
• Comprehensive near mine and regional exploration targeting study including
definition of high priority targets nearing completion.
West Coast Silver Limited (ASX: WCE) (‘West Coast Silver’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce
the results of its recently completed reconnaissance rock chip and float sampling program at its
Elizabeth Hill Silver Project in Western Australia.
The program, which involved the collection of 115 rock chip samples, has returned significant assay
results, confirming the presence of anomalous silver, copper, and gold mineralisation in areas both
north and south of the historic Elizabeth Hill high-grade silver mine.
Notable assay results from the complete results which are detailed in Appendix A of the announcement
include:
•
•
•
•
•
25EW06-062: 490 g/t Ag, 0.03 g/t Au, 0.17% Cu;
25EW06-057: 316 g/t Ag, 0.19 g/t Au, 0.11% Cu;
25EW06-063: 276 g/t Ag, 0.13 g/t Au, 0.14% Cu;
25EW06-025: 179 g/t Ag, 0.42% Cu; and
25EW06-064: 178 g/t Ag, 0.06% Cu;
Executive Chairman’s Bruce Garlick commented:
“We are very pleased with the results from reconnaissance sampling program at Elizabeth Hill. The
high-grade silver results demonstrate the significant potential for expanding the known mineralisation
footprint around the historic silver mine.”

Figure 1 – Location of float sample assay results north and south of the historic Elizabeth high grade silver mine
These significant assay results—up to 490 g/t Ag, 0.19 g/t Au, and 0.42% Cu—occur in two key areas
relative to the historic high-grade silver mine. A cluster of samples grading >100 g/t Ag are located over
an area 200–500 m north of the mine, while an isolated sample (170 g/t Ag) lies ~200 m to the south.
The results suggest potential for additional new mineralised source areas and are possibly related to
the north-south trending Munni Munni fault system.
Upcoming Works
Following on from completion of its inaugural drilling campaign and building on its significant results
including 21 metres at 1,047g/t Ag from 10 metres in 25WCDD001 the Company now has commenced
a systematic approach to further exploring Elizabeth Hill and the surrounding areas.
This includes:
•
•
•
Trenching, mapping, and additional rock chip sampling which has already commenced at site;
Completion of near mine and regional targeting works including prioritisation of targets
(estimated completion 3-4 weeks); and
Development of follow-on drill campaigns to the inaugural campaign including consideration
for air core, reverse circulation and additional diamond drilling.
Lithium Joint Venture Update
The Company wishes to update that it terminated its Lithium JV agreement with Alien Metals at the
Pinderi Hills Project to align with the Company strategy as a silver focused explorer/developer.

The Elizabeth Hill Project
Elizabeth Hill is one of Australia’s high-grade silver projects and has a proven production history outlined
below:
•
High grades enabled low processing tonnes: 1.2Moz of silver was produced from just 16,830t
of ore at a head grade of 2,194g/t (70.5 oz/t Ag)1
•
Previous mining operation ceased in 2000: because of low silver prices (US$5)2
•
Simplistic historical processing technique: native silver was recovered via low-cost gravity
separation techniques
•
Untapped potential remains in ground with deposit open at depth and recent consolidation of
land package offers potential to discover more Elizabeth Hill style deposits.
•
Tier 1 Mining Jurisdiction located on a mining lease with potential processing option at the
nearby Radio Hill site.
Figure 2 – Location of Project Combined Tenements
Through the consolidation of the surrounding land packages into a single contiguous 180km2 package
significant exploration and growth potential exists both near mine and regionally.
The land package holds a significant portion of the Munni Munni fault system which is considered
prospective for Elizabeth Hill look-a-like silver deposits.

Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised
industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation,
such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples
should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate
calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple
(e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was
pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases, more explanation
may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules) may
warrant disclosure of detailed information.
•
Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka,

Samples referred to in this report are rock chips samples obtained
from in-situ, subcrop, and float collected by West Coast Silver
during field reconnaissance exercises.
Rock chip samples collected were selected based on pXRF scans
and field observations recognising potentially mineralised rocks
Samples are collected from around historic reported gossan
locations, Ag soil anomalies, and samples collected while doing
regional soil sampling program.
Rock chip sample weight was between 0.15kg and 3.6kg
Rock chips samples are subject to bias and often unrepresentative
for the typical widths and assay grades required for economic
consideration. They are by nature difficult to duplicate with any
acceptable form of precision or accuracy.
Samples were bagged and submitted to ALS Perth for preparation
to a fine pulp (85% <75 µm). From that pulp, a 50 g charge was
taken for fire assay (Au-AA26) and a 250 mg aliquot for four-acid
digestion/ICP-MS–AES multi-element analysis (ME-MS61),
ensuring a homogeneous pulp suitable for both high-precision Au
assays and ultra-trace multi-element determination.
Not applicable as no drilling was undertaken

No field sub-sampling of rock-chip samples was undertaken as part
of this program; any single sample exceeding 3 kg was coarsecrushed and riffle-split by the laboratory to a 3 kg subsample for
pulverisation (PUL-25a), with the remaining material retained as
rejects.
Sample Prep:
Coarse Crush, ALS method CRU21- entire sample is crushed to
>70% passing 2mm screen;
Riffle Split (if > 3 kg): any material above 3 kg is riffle-split down to a
3 kg sub-sample, with the coarse rejects retained;
Fine Crush, ALS method PU25a – pulverise up to 3 kg of crushed
material > 85% passing 75µm screen.
This follows standard industry practice for rock-chip preparation and
produces a homogeneous pulp for a 50 g fire assay (Au) charge and
a four-acid digestion for a 48-element multi-element suite. All
crushing and pulverising steps are subject to ALS’s NATA-accredited
QC checks (85% < 75 µm fineness confirmed by sieve), with pulps
routinely checked at a frequency of at least 1:40 samples.

Rock-chip samples were dispatched to ALS Global Laboratories in
Perth for analysis. Gold was determined by 50 g fire assay with
atomic absorption finish (Au-AA26), and a multi-element suite of 48
elements was measured by four-acid digestion with ICP-MS/ICPAES (ME-MS61). Samples exceeding the upper detection limit for
Ag or Cu were re-analysed using the ore-grade four-acid digestion
default method (ME-OG62). These techniques are considered
“total” for the target elements, providing comprehensive dissolution
of sulfides and oxides.
Rock samples were collected from the prospects and scanned
using Vanta Olympus XRF at an ambient temp of 27 to 32 °C on dry
samples.
The XRF uses the latest 2025 software and is calibrated daily
against a CRM and a blank. Analysis method uses 3 beam analysis
set to 10 sec per beam for 30 second read time.
ALS Perth’s preparation and analytical workflows include internal
standards, blanks, and duplicate analyses to monitor accuracy and
precision. Control charts and QA/QC metrics are managed via their
Webtrieve™ system under NATA accreditation. Although no
company-supplied standards or blanks were submitted, ALS’s
rigorous internal QC procedures ensure acceptable levels of bias (<
±2% for Au) and precision (relative standard deviation < 3% for
most elements).
Rock chip sample and geological information is recorded in the field
with co-ordinates saved from in built tablet GPS and handheld GPS
used in the field.
All rock chip samples were inspected and described by West Coast
Silver geologists in the field.
Field data is entered into Fulcrum App before being loaded into a
database.
All data has been maintained, validated, and managed by
administrative geologist.
Analytical results received from the lab have been loaded directly

E47/4422, E47/3322, E47/3535, P47/2033,
The tenements lie with in the Ngarluma Native Title Claim
The Tenements are in good standing with DEMIRS and there are
no known impediments for exploration on these tenements
The Elizabeth Hill deposit and adjoining area has been explored for
Ni, Cu, PGM, base metals, Li and Ag mineralisation since 1968
when US Steel International Inc explored the area for base metals
and nickel.
Massive silver was discovered in ~1994-1995 by Legend mining NL
in a percussion hole drilling program. Further drilling followed and in
1997 and exploration shaft and drive was sunk by East Coast
Minerals NL.
Underground mining at Elizabet Hill was conducted in 1999-2000
with additional drilling completed by East Coast Minerals NL until
the project was sold to Global Strategic Metals NL in 2012. Alien
Metals Ltd purchased lease M47/342 in early 2020.
The Elizabeth Hills silver mineralisation is structurally controlled and
is located on the eastern boundary of the north-south trending
Munni Munni Fault. Mineralisation has been intersected over a
100m north-south zone along the boundary of the Munni Munni
Fault, plunging south along the granite contact. The zone has an
east-west width of 15-20m with the high-grade core restricted to
around 3m width in the region of the underground workings. The
mineralised zone is separated into several pods and occurs within a
quartz carbonate chalcedonic silica beccia that shows veining. The
silver occurs in fine disseminations, needles, veins, nuggets and
platelets up to several centimetres in diameter.
