Completion of Tolmer High Grade Silver Zone Drilling
HIGHLIGHTS
2,882m reverse circulation (RC) drilling completed at Tolmer high-grade silver discovery; recent expansion from 13 to 21 holes based upon early drilling program observations [1]
Program expanded in all directions with two additional lines to north and south
Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX:BGD)(FRA:BGD3)(OTCQB:BGDFF) (Barton or Company) is pleased to confirm that expanded RC drilling has completed at its recent 'Tolmer' high grade silver discovery, located at the Company's South Australian Tarcoola Gold Project (Tarcoola).1 A total of 2,882m RC drilling was completed across 21 completed holes to an average depth of 137m. Samples are planned to depart site during the coming week, with the first multi-element assay results expected toward the end of July.

Commenting on the Tolmer drilling program, Barton Managing Director Alexander Scanlon said:
'We look forward to sharing the assay results for this latest round of Tolmer drilling. The western 'silver zone' is an exciting target, and we are already planning near-term follow up diamond and RC drilling programs. My thanks to the excellent Barton team, and our drilling partners, for the safe execution of this extended program.'
Program background
Barton identified Tolmer as a high-grade gold discovery in August 2024, and subsequently identified a new 'silver zone' ~500m west in a line of seven discovery holes with globally significant assays including:[2]
Hole ID
Interval
Including:
TBAC130
6m @ 4,747 g/t Ag from 46 metres
1m @ 17,600 g/t Ag from 46 metres
TBM227
4m @ 1,417 g/t Ag from 9 metres
1m @ 3,790 g/t Ag from 9 metres
TBM228
14m @ 434 g/t Ag from 46 metres
1m @ 3,350 g/t Ag from 54 metres
On 22 May Barton commenced a planned program of ~2,500m RC drilling which was designed to infill and extend both the western 'silver zone' and the eastern 'gold zone'.[3] Based upon further geological surface reconnaissance and early observations from drilling, it was decided to expand the 'silver zone' drilling program to gather a larger amount of data on this area with the remaining time available in this program.[4]
Seven drill holes originally planned for the eastern 'gold zone' were re-allocated to eight new drill holes in the western 'silver zone', expanding the planned drilling from three to five lines of RC holes. The total Tolmer drilling program was expanded from a planned ~2,500m to a revised final total of 2,882m.
Samples will shortly be despatched for expedited laboratory analysis, with the first multi-element assay results expected to be received toward the end of July. Barton has already commenced planning for follow up programs, including diamond drilling for structural orientation and further extensional RC drilling.

Galat Sufar South Mineral Resource estimates are truncated at 350 m depth, with around 90% of Indicated and Inferred resources occurring at depths of less than 240 and 300 m respectively. Wadi Doum estimates extend to around 255 m depth, with around 90% of Indicated and Inferred resources occurring at depths of less than 115 m and 190 m respectively. The depth limits imposed on the estimates are considered to largely confine the estimates to material with reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction.

CIM Definition Standards were followed for the classification of Mineral Reserves. Mineral Reserves were optimised using a gold price of US$1,100/oz. Mining Cut-off grades vary between 0.32 g/t and 0.90 g/t. Rounding of numbers to appropriate precisions may have resulted in apparent inconsistencies. Perseus's Mineral Resource Estimates The Perseus Group's total M&I Mineral Resources reported as at 30 June 2025 are estimated to be 185.9 Mt grading 1.30 g/t gold, containing 7.8 Moz of gold, compared with the estimate of 30 June 2024 of 115.9 Mt grading at 1.31 g/t Au for 4.9 Moz of gold. The Mineral Resource Statement accounts for mining depletion of in-situ Mineral Resources and is reported inclusive of Ore Reserves. Inferred Resources are 39.9 Mt grading at 1.5 g/t Au for 1.9 Moz of gold, compared with the estimate of 30 June 2024 of 24.1 Mt grading at 1.6 g/t Au for 1.3 Moz of gold. Tonnes are reported as dry metric tonnes. All tabulated tonnes, grade and metal have been rounded to reflect appropriate precision in the estimate and may cause some discrepancies in totals. The Foreign/Historical Estimate for the MSGP Mineral Resource in Northern Sudan, announced on 28 February 2022 (see news release titled 'Perseus enters into agreement to acquire Orca Gold Inc.') is stated in the 'Foreign/Historical Estimate' subsection of this report and is reported separately from the Group's Mineral Resources detailed below. The Group Mineral Resource estimates are reported in accordance with the 2012 Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (the JORC Code 2012). The classification categories of Measured, Indicated and Inferred under the JORC Code (2012) are equivalent to the CIM categories of the same names (CIM, 2014). For the purpose of satisfying 'reasonable prospects for eventual extraction' (JORC Code 2012), open pit Mineral Resources are reported above optimised open pit shells developed with actual and estimated operating costs and a long-term gold price assumption of US$2,100 per ounce, with the exception of Nyanzaga reported at US$2,000 per ounce. Underground Mineral Resources at CMA are constrained to below the CMA Stage 3 pit design and reported at a 1.5 g/t Au cut-off. Underground Mineral Resources at Edikan are constrained to a depth of 600 mRL at Esuajah South and are all exclusive of open pit Mineral Resources. Technical Reports associated with these Mineral Resources, have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 for the following operations: Nyanzaga Gold Project, Tanzania, NI 43-101 Technical Report, dated 10 June 2025 Yaouré Operations, Côte d'Ivoire, NI 43-101 Technical Report, dated 18 December 2023 Sissingué Operations, Côte d'Ivoire, NI 43-101 Technical Report, dated 29 May 2015 Edikan Operations, Ghana, NI 43-101 Technical Report, dated 6 April 2022 These reports can be found on Perseus's website at and on the Canadian System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) website Perseus's Ore Reserve Estimate CRITERIA FOR ORE RESERVE CLASSIFICATION All Ore Reserves are reported in accordance with the JORC Code (2012) and are reported by category, deposit and type, above variable cut-off grades. The classification categories of Proved and Probable under the JORC Code (2012) are equivalent to the CIM categories Proven and Probable respectively (CIM, 2010). The Ore Reserve is classified as Proved and Probable corresponding to the Mineral Resource classifications of M&I and considering other factors where relevant. The deposits' geological models are well constrained. The Ore Reserve classification is considered appropriate given the nature of the deposits, the moderate grade variability, drilling density, structural complexity, confidence in input parameters based on operational experience and mining history. It was therefore considered appropriate to use Measured Mineral Resources as a basis for Proved Ore Reserves and Indicated Mineral Resources as a basis for Probable Ore Reserves. No Inferred Mineral Resources were included in Ore Reserve estimate with the exception of 2.8 koz of incidental Inferred which is included in the CMA underground development and is not considered material to the Ore Reserve. Technical Disclosure: All Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources other than the Foreign/Historical Estimates were calculated as of 30 June 2025 and have been calculated and prepared in accordance with the standards set out in the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves dated December 2012 (the 'JORC Code') and in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators ('NI 43-101'). The JORC Code is the accepted reporting standard for the Australian Stock Exchange Limited ('ASX'). The definitions of Ore Reserves and Mineral Resources as set forth in the JORC Code (2012) have been reconciled to the definitions set forth in the CIM Definition Standards. If the Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources were estimated in accordance with the definitions in the JORC Code, there would be no substantive difference in such Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources. Competent Person Statement: The information in this report that relates to Mineral Resources is based on, and fairly represents, information and supporting documentation prepared by Daniel Saunders, a Competent Person who is a Fellow of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Saunders is a full-time employee of Perseus Mining Limited. Mr Saunders has sufficient experience, which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity being undertaken, to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the 'Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves'' and to qualify as a 'Qualified Person' under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ('NI 43-101'). Mr Saunders consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. The information in this report that relates to Ore Reserves is based on information compiled by Mr Adrian Ralph, a Competent Person who is a Fellow of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Ralph is a full-time employee of Perseus Mining Limited. Mr Ralph has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activities which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the 'Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves' and a Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101. Mr Ralph consents to the inclusion in this report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. The Company confirms that the material assumptions underpinning the estimates of Ore Reserves described in 'Technical Report — Edikan Gold Mine, Ghana' dated 6 April 2022, 'Technical Report — Yaouré Gold Project, Côte d'Ivoire' dated 18 December 2023, 'Technical Report — Sissingué Gold Project, Côte d'Ivoire' dated 29 May 2015, and 'Technical Report — Nyanzaga Gold Project, Tanzania' dated 10 June 2025 continue to information in this report that relates to the Mineral Resources and Probable Reserves of the Block 14 Project was first reported by the Company in a market announcement 'Perseus Enters into Agreement to Acquire Orca Gold Inc.' released on 28 February 2022. The Company confirms it is not in possession of any new information or data relating to those estimates that materially impacts of the reliability of the estimate of the Company's ability to verify the estimate as a Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve in accordance with Appendix 5A (JORC Code) and the information in that in that original market release continues to apply and have not materially changed. These estimates are prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 standards and have not been reported in accordance with the JORC Code. A competent person has not done sufficient work to classify the resource in accordance with the JORC Code and it is uncertain that following evaluation and/or further exploration work that the estimate will be able to be reported as a Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve in accordance with the JORC Code. Mr Saunders and Mr Ralph have reviewed this press release and all technical information regarding Orca's NI 43-101 Foreign/historical estimate and this information is approved by Adrian Ralph and Daniel Saunders, each a Qualified Person for the purposes of NI 43-101.

Modivcare Enters into Comprehensive Restructuring Agreement to Strengthen its Future, Reduce Debt and Inject Capital
DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Modivcare Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Modivcare') (Nasdaq: MODV), a technology-enabled healthcare services company providing a platform of integrated supportive care solutions focused on improving health outcomes, today announced that it has taken necessary and decisive action intended to strengthen its financial foundation while continuing to provide access to care, reduce costs, and improve outcomes for clients and members nationwide. Modivcare has filed for voluntary Chapter 11 protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas to implement a comprehensive restructuring transaction with the support of a supermajority of its key stakeholders. Through this process, Modivcare intends to build a stronger, sustainable organization, positioned for growth and well-equipped to meet the critical needs of members across its non-emergency medical transportation, personal care services and remote patient monitoring service lines. 'Modivcare sits at the center of the preventive healthcare ecosystem,' said Heath Sampson, Chief Executive Officer and President of Modivcare. 'This recapitalization strengthens our balance sheet and allows Modivcare to accelerate our investment in innovation by combining technology and data with high-touch member engagement. As the connector to care, our seamlessly connected platform improves access, quality and cost for payors, providers and facilities, while positioning us to lead the future of coordinated care.' More than 90% of First Lien Lenders and more than 70% of Second Lien Lenders have entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement ('RSA') with the Company. Those lenders have committed to support the Company throughout this process and have agreed to provide $100 million in 'debtor-in-possession' ('DIP') financing to finance the restructuring process and to support ongoing operations during this expedited bankruptcy process. Upon the closing of the DIP loan, Modivcare will have liquidity in excess of $100 million. The restructuring will reduce the Company's total outstanding funded debt obligations by approximately $1.1 billion (which is more than 85% of its outstanding funded debt obligations) and will meaningfully reduce the Company's annual cash interest and transition ownership to a group of seasoned and well-funded investors who are committed to Modivcare's success. All of Modivcare's service lines will continue to operate in the ordinary course, and we expect no interruption or change in access to care and a continued focus on operational excellence. Modivcare intends to close this transaction quickly by exiting the restructuring process early in the fourth quarter of 2025. Modivcare remains committed to providing excellent service to clients and their members. The Company has filed customary motions that, once approved, will allow Modivcare to meet obligations to clients and critical vendors, including transportation providers, and pay employee wages and benefits as usual.
