Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 4, 2025) - Golden Cross Resources (TSXV: AUX) (OTCQB: ZCRMF) (FSE: ZML0) ("Golden Cross" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has lodged an application for Exploration Licence EL008779, securing an additional 305 km² of highly prospective ground in Victoria, Australia's prolific Lachlan Fold Belt – a region known for orogenic gold deposits (structurally controlled, quartz vein-hosted systems), as well as intrusion-related and epizonal high-grade gold systems.
This new licence covers approximately 46 km of strike across several key anticlines that host known gold mineralization, significantly expanding the Company's footprint to more than 750 km² in the region.
The expanded landholding consolidates strike extensions of Golden Cross's initial drill testing of regional targets, complementing ongoing work across the Reedy Creek Gold Project at several key prospective targets.
Key Prospective Trends Included in the Application:
- Providence Trend – 8 km strike
- Homewood Trend – 9 km strike
- Ti Tree Trend – 11 km strike
- Welcome Trend – 18 km strike

Providence
Gold mineralisation at the Providence area occurs in west-dipping quartz veins, shear zones and fault breccias within a weakly mineralised 150 m thick host sandstone unit bounded on either side by interbedded siltstones and mudstones. Four main reefs were mined at Providence mainly in the period from 1859 to 1888, reportedly yielding an aggregate of over 930 kg (30,000 oz) of gold1.
Homewood
Rock chip sampling of the workings along the Homewood trend by CRA in the late 70's yielded peak gold assays of 4.4 and 2.45g/t Au2.
Welcome & Ti Tree
The Tea Tree Creek Goldfield features several areas of alluvial workings, as well as several significant mines exploiting reef deposits. The Welcome Reef was worked to a depth of over 240m with recorded production of 1,200 oz of gold averaging 45 g/t3. The Old Mans Hope Reef averaged 15 g/t gold4. Mineralisation is reported to be concentrated in the core of an anticlinal axis and appears to be most intense where the quartz reefs intersect graphitic shales5.
The new application represents an important milestone in Golden Cross's strategy to build a pipeline of high-quality exploration targets within its Reedy Creek Project, directly adjacent to Southern Cross Gold's Sunday Creek discovery.
Management Commentary
Alan Till, VP Exploration of Golden Cross Resources, commented: "Our prospects demonstrate gold mineralization closely linked to the region's major anticlinal fold trends. We are entering an exciting growth phase as we advance mapping and initial drill testing of several underexplored targets, including Welcome Reef and the historic Ah Mouy Mine. This tenement application strategically secures future expansion opportunities for Golden Cross along strike of these highly prospective gold-bearing corridors."
