Monument Announces Significant Intercepts Assay Results at Buffalo Reef/Felda - Seite 2

Table 1 "Significant Drill Intercepts > 1.0g/t - DD holes" is attached to this News Release, showing a breakdown of fire assay best intercept results completed by SGS Lab for intervals of mineralization greater than 1.0 g/t Au along with collar information for the DD drill holes, in both local mine grid and national MRSO grid system. The majority of the infill and extensional drilling was angled at 60° towards the local mine grid west, and has confirmed the existing oxide and sulphide mineralized zones and also intersected a number of down-dip quartz stibnite high grade intervals, beyond the currently defined shallower, quartz-ankerite mineralization.

Table 2 in this news release shows the collar coordinates of highlighted exploration HQ diameter DD (prefix MBRDD) and RC (prefix MBRRC) in corresponding intercepts listed in the Table 1.

FY2016 drill holes, including the mineralized assay results greater than 1.0g/t Au at BRC/Felda highlighted at Figure 1 above, together with holes prior to FY2016, are all being used in the ongoing Resource estimation. The drill hole orientation for exploration drilling was designed to target perpendicular to mineralization for true thickness. The drill hole intercepts reported in this statement represent composited sample intervals obtained from drilling.

Exploration Focus at Gold Portfolio in Malaysia

The following Figure 2 shows a regional geology map and gold mining context for the central gold belt surrounding Selinsing Gold Mine area in Pahang State, Malaysia.

The Company's exploration focus is to substantially replace gold inventory in the surrounding areas of the Selinsing Gold Mine in order to extend the economically recoverable life of mine to support sustainable production for another 5 years.

Previous exploration through 2013 to 2015 has provided better understanding of the geology, lithologies, structural, hydrothermal alteration and weathering controls on the mineralization of the properties in the Selinsing Gold Mine area, which supported and will continue to support together with FY2016 exploration identification of extensions of the known mineralization and new occurrences hosted in the same major north-south structure.
