ASX:WCE ANNOUNCEMENT
9 October 2025
Accelerated Phase 2 Drilling campaign
commences at Elizabeth Hill
• Phase 2 diamond drilling to commence on 10 October 2025 at the high-grade
Elizabeth Hill Silver Project (Pilbara, WA)
• Follows multiple bonanza-grade intercepts from Phase 1 (Aug–Sep 2025)
• Program aims to test near-surface high-grade mineralisation, and prospective
areas down plunge of the historical workings with mineralisation open at depth
• Additional ~3,000m air core program scheduled to begin early November,
targeting near-mine anomalies defined by recent geophysics
• Geophysics in progress: Transient Electromagnetic (TEM) and drone magnetic
surveys continuing to refine targets along the Munni Munni Fault and parallel
structures
• Drilling Contractor and WCE personnel have commenced mobilisation
activities to site
West Coast Silver Limited (ASX: WCE) (West Coast Silver or the Company) is pleased to advise that
the second phase of diamond drilling will commence ahead of schedule, on 10 October 2025, at the
high-grade Elizabeth Hill Silver Project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia (Elizabeth Hill) (Figure
1, Figure 2, Figure 6).
The program has a dual focus: (1) to confirm and define the shallow, very high-grade silver
immediately adjacent to the historic workings; and (2) to test a potential for deeper continuation to the
south where the mineralisation remains open at depth.
The Phase 2 drilling program will consist of approximately 14 diamond drill holes (~1,300 metres). This
will be expanded as required based on the success of the program. Drilling will be undertaken by Wallis
Drilling Pty Ltd.
In addition, geophysical surveys have commenced to provideadditionalhigh-quality dataforrefinement
of the proposed aircore programs commencing in November (Figure 3, Figure 4, Figure 5).

Commenting, Executive Chairman Bruce Garlick said:
“We’re back on the ground and moving quickly to build on the outstanding grades from our initial
campaign. Phase 2 is designed to do two things: demonstrate near-surface continuity in the oxide zone
and test a deeper target that could represent a down-plunge repeat of the Elizabeth Hill system.

Down Plunge Exploration Targets
Further evaluation of historical underground and surface drilling geology logs and geochemistry has
reinforced the prospectivity of the down plunge target as a potential extension of the Elizabeth Hill Mine
sequence (Figure 2).
Underground diamond drill hole UGD084 intersected 2m@ 1,995g/t Ag withinan interval of 6m@ 705g/t
Ag (Figure 1 ,Figure 2, Appendices 1-2). Drill logs at the time also describe native silver mineralisation
within the 2m high grade interval, similar to that recorded in the Elizabeth Hill Deposit (WAMEX Report
A62365).
Underground diamonddrill hole UGD085 intersected 23,304ppm Ni, 6,013ppm Cu, 1,078ppm Pb, 4,104
ppm Zn and 50ppm Ag (Figure 1, Figure 2). The drill log describes complex textures with calcite
brecciation reflecting similar geology to the Elizabeth Hill mine sequence (WAMEX Report A62365).
These drill holes combined with drill hole AG33 (Figure 1, Figure 2), previously reported, provide
confidence in targeting the down plunge extension of the Elizabeth Hill mineralisation.

Geophysical Programs
Drone magnetic and Loupe TEM programs are currently being conducted on site. The Drone Magnetic
survey is being flown at 20m line spacing to refine the targeting for planned aircore programs, as well as
defining further potential Elizabeth Hill style targets on the Munni Munni fault (Figure 3, Figure 4).

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)2
.
• Previous mining operation ceased in 2000: because of low silver prices (US$5)3
.
• 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 6: Tenement Location
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, and other fault systems subparallel to the

Appendix 3
JORC Code (2012) – Table 1 - Elizabeth Hill Silver Project, Western Australia
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques
• Nature and quality of sampling (eg 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 (eg ‘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 (eg
submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information.
• The historical exploration activities mentioned in this release have
been obtained from open file data (WAMEX reports) extracted by
Alien Metals, and other historical databases that Alien Metals has
used to compile a master database.
• The Competent Person (CP) confirms that sufficient spot checks of
data in the Alien Metals master database, for selected historical drill
holes, have been performed with the original WAMEX reports to verify
the data extracted or captured in digital format, is as presented. The
CP considers the data is fit for purpose for planning further
exploration.
• Data including procedure documentation have been obtained from
Alien Metals.
• West Coast Silver is undertaking a full validation of the nature and
quality of the historical drilling and sampling undertaken.
• West Coast Silver has however done sufficient verification of the
sampling techniques, and in the CP’s opinion it provides sufficient
confidence that sampling was performed to adequate industry
standards and is fit for the purpose of planning exploration
programmes and generating targets for further investigation.
• All references to historical mineralisation are taken from reports and
documents prepared by previous explorers that have been reviewed
by West Coast Silver and considered to be fit for purpose.
• The CP concludes the results highlighted by West Coast Silver are
anomalous and warrant further investigation, based on his experience
in the areas of the Company’s Project.
Drilling:
Pre-2002 Historical Underground Diamond Drilling
ASX:WCE ANNOUNCEMENT
9 October 2025
WEST COAST SILVER LIMITED ASX | WCE Page 18
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
• Underground extensional exploration drilling consisted of diamond
core drilling. Very limited information on sampling of underground
holes (UGD001, 019, 021-22, 082-087) mentioned in the
announcement and drilled by East Coast Minerals NL and Legend
Mining Ltd in the early 2000’s, is documented in the historical reports.
However, sampling was undertaken on one or two metre intervals.
• Laboratory protocols are not available to determine the laboratory
sample size.
• The historical reports mention a variety of methods and techniques
for analysing the drill core.
• The CP is unable to verify historical sampling work but considers they
provide an indication of mineralisation and are sufficient to plan
further exploration.
Drilling
techniques
• Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air
blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple
or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other
type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc).
Pre-2002 Historical Underground Diamond Drilling
• Underground diamond drilling used either a Kempe Bazooka rig or
LTK TT46 rig (~35mm core diameter).
• The historical reports contain very limited information on drilling
details and are not considered material to supporting the assessment
of prospectivity and further exploration.
Drill sample
recovery
• Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries
and results assessed.
• Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure
representative nature of the samples.
• Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade
and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential
loss/gain of fine/coarse material.
Pre-2002 Historical Underground Diamond Drilling
• West Coast Silver is undertaking validation of the historical data to
determine whether this information has been collected in full. Only
limited information is available in the open file reports addressing this
criterion. However, for further exploration purposes, the CP regards
this lack of information is not considered material.
• These criteria will be partially validated within the Elizabeth Hill
historical mine environment with twinning of some historical drill
holes.
Logging • Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and
geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate
Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical
studies.
• Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or
costean, channel, etc) photography.
Pre-2002 Historical Underground Diamond Drilling
• Underground historical drill holes were geologically logged to various
degrees of detail.
• West Coast Silver is undertaking verification of the quality and level of
detail of the geological logging data.
ASX:WCE ANNOUNCEMENT
9 October 2025
WEST COAST SILVER LIMITED ASX | WCE Page 19
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
• The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged. • The historical reports show very limited and selective core photos of
variable quality. No other details are known about the core
photography.
• West Coast Silver has done sufficient verification of the data, in the
CP’s opinion to provide sufficient confidence the logging was
performed to adequate industry standards and is fit for the purpose of
planning exploration programmes and generating targets for
investigation.
Sub-sampling
techniques
and sample
preparation
• If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core
taken.
• If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and
whether sampled wet or dry.
• For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the
sample preparation technique.
• Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to
maximise representivity of samples.
• Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in
situ material collected, including for instance results for field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
• Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material
being sampled.
Pre-2002 Historical Underground Diamond Drilling
• The CP can confirm the diamond core for UGD001 was cut and a
quarter core sample was collected for assaying, while UGD019, 021-
22, 082-087 were cut and half core samples taken for assaying.
• Information on sample preparation is not available in historical
reports.
• Information for quality control procedures is not available in the
historical reports.
• Information on duplicates is available in the historical reports.
• Sample sizes have not been described in the historical reports,
except for UGD001 were it was mentioned “the small sample size
may have been a contributing factor to problems recorded in
obtaining correlation between lab results and core logging.”
• The CP can’t verify if all the sample sizes were appropriate for the
geology and style of mineralisation being investigated. However, the
CP notes that for this style of mineralisation it is general industry
standard to cut and collect half core drill samples for assaying.
Quality of
assay data
and
laboratory
tests
• The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and
laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered
partial or total.
• For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc,
the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument
make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their
derivation, etc.
• Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg standards, blanks,
duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels
Pre-2002 Historical Underground Diamond Drilling
• Assaying and laboratory procedures are not available for most
historical drilling. However, where available this information is
described as below.
• Underground samples submitted to Analabs were analysed by A103,
Al04, A140 A119, F641W, F660, GA101 and Screen methods. Those
submitted to Genalysis were analysed by AX/AAS, FA/AAS, FA/GRA
and SFA/GRA methods. Intervals with visible silver were generally
analysed by screen fire methods.
