Ground gravity and passive seismic geophysical surveying in progress.
Drone magnetics and drill preparation earthmoving scheduled to commence in coming weeks.
Reverse Circulation drilling on track to commence in late May.
Upcoming RC drilling will target extensions of the previously reported high-grade intervals at
the Martin target in drill-hole 24XRC097, including:
10m @ 12.66g/t Au from 59m; and
10m @ 7.34g/t Au from 94m

Trek Metals Limited (ASX: TKM) (“Trek” or the “Company”) is pleased to advise that high-resolution
geophysical surveys have commenced as preparation for the upcoming drilling program at its 100%owned Christmas Creek Gold Project in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.
The ground gravity, passive seismic and upcoming drone magnetic surveys are being conducted in
order to provide a comprehensive set of data to build the sub-surface geological framework that will
be critical to understanding the location and distribution of gold-bearing veins.

Trek Metals CEO, Derek Marshall, said: “The team is excited to be on the ground and undertaking
exploration at our flagship Christmas Creek Gold Project. The data being generated now will be critical
during the upcoming drilling, allowing our geologists to better interpret the geological controls on the
gold mineralisation.
“We are ready for the arrival of the drone magnetics crew and earthmoving contractor in the coming
weeks to prepare for drilling. The drill rig is scheduled to arrive later this month, and we can’t wait to
test for extensions to the thick, high-grade gold intersected at the Martin Prospect last season. The
Zahn Prospect also represents a high-priority target for the upcoming drilling.
“I look forward to updating shareholders as the exploration progresses.”
