Unity Metals Limited has identified two strong magnetic anomalies beneath the Rohav Mountain prospect at its flagship Ngot Gold Project in eastern Cambodia, pointing to the potential source of the area's gold mineralisation.

The results follow recent remote sensing and geophysical surveys conducted by Austhai Geophysical Consultants, comprising 205 line kilometres of UAV magnetics, 5.35 line kilometres of dipole-dipole array induced polarisation (DDIP), and an 8.55 square kilometre LiDAR topographic survey over the steep terrain.

Data from the UAV magnetics survey outlined two sizable anomalies interpreted as magnetite-bearing intrusions below the surface. A central anomaly sits directly beneath and north of Unity's initial drilling at Rohav Mountain, which previously intersected stacked zones of shallow-dipping gold mineralisation hosted in a hydrothermally altered diorite intrusion. Previous drilling highlights include 23 metres at 0.9 grams per tonne gold from 120 metres in hole 26DDRM007 and 1 metre at 7.9 grams per tonne gold from 33 metres in hole 26DDRM008, though these holes did not test the newly identified central anomaly.

“Unity's recent first pass drill testing at Rohav Mountain discovered significant gold mineralisation centred on a sizable and highly altered diorite intrusive body that extends under extensive basalt cover. The new UAV magnetics survey has uncovered a strong and sizable magnetic anomaly beneath the surface and beneath our existing drilling at Rohav Mountain. The anomaly is interpreted as a magnetic- bearing intrusion and we believe that we may have identified the potential engine room for the intense hydrothermal alteration and a source for the gold mineralisation discovered in our drilling to date.”

Complementing the magnetic findings, the DDIP survey mapped discrete, finger-like chargeability and resistivity high anomalies extending around the periphery of the central intrusion. Unity interprets these as potential sulphide-rich and highly silicified zones representing intact epithermal quartz veins, designating them as high-priority drill targets particularly along the eastern and northern margins.

The flagship Ngot project has been the focus of an 8,000-metre diamond drilling program spanning multiple prospect areas, including Rohav Mountain. Unity Metals plans to test the new geophysical targets in a follow-up drilling program scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2026, following the end of the monsoon season to allow better access.
