Announcement PDF ASX Announcement & Media Release | ASX: KAL | 7 December 2023 Providence: North plunging shallow gold mineralisation has significant potential at depth. Highlights: • Additional shallow gold mineralisation within the Kirgella Gift–Providence corridor expected to be incorporated into a JORC Code (2012) Mineral Resource Estimate and assessed for open-pit mining. • New gold intercepts from only 20 m depth at the Providence prospect (south of Kirgella Gift, Pinjin Project) expand on KalGold’s previous results. New intercepts include: o KGRC23015: 4m at 1.99 g/t Au from 24 m including 2 m at 3.08 g/t Au from 25 m and 6 m at 2.11 g/t Au from 80 m including 3 m at 3.16 g/t Au from 83 m and 4 m at 1.37 g/t Au from 91 m including 1 m at 4.80 g/t Au from 94 m and 2 m at 2.58 g/t Au from 101 m including 1 m at 4.09 g/t Au from 102 m o KGRC23017: 2m at 1.71 g/t Au from 20 m including 1 m at 2.67 g/t Au from 21 m o KGRC23016: 10m at 1.12 g/t Au from 143 m including 2 m at 3.42 g/t Au from 145 m • These intercepts are encased within broader gold-mineralised intervals, such as 23 m at 1.08 g/t Au from 80 m in KGRC23015 and are being investigated to assess open pit mining possibilities. • Drilling results confirm clear northerly plunging gold mineralisation towards Kirgella Gift with a structural intersection target commencing from around 180 m vertical depth. o • Such intersections can be a locus for gold mineralisation, providing opportunity for substantial grade and tonnage increases. This significant opportunity will be investigated in KalGold’s forthcoming drill programs. Further drilling planned in early 2024 to test new highly prospective gold targets. Kalgoorlie Gold Mining (ASX:KAL), KalGold’ or ‘the Company’), is pleased to announce the results of recent RC drilling at its Providence gold target within the Pinjin project, around 140 km east of KalgoorlieBoulder. Results have extremely positive implications for prospectivity of the area which is to be tested in the Company’s forthcoming programs. Kalgoorlie Gold Mining Limited | ACN 645 666 164 Suite 2, 1209 Hay St, West Perth WA 6005, Australia T: +61 (0)8 6002 2700 | E: info@kalgoldmining.com.au | www.kalgoldmining.com.au New gold intercepts and targets at Providence Commenting on the results, KalGold Managing Director Matt Painter said: “Gold mineralisation at Providence is very similar to Kirgella Gift immediately north and is present from 20 m beneath surface, directly under transported cover. New results from KalGold’s Providence target define a clear, northerly plunge of gold mineralisation towards Kirgella Gift. The Company predicts that, should these mineralised trends intersect, there could be significant hydrothermal fracturing and associated gold mineralisation. KalGold is presently assessing the most effective means of testing this target and other targets at Pinjin. KalGold continues to define shallow gold mineralisation at Kirgella Gift and Providence to be incorporated into a JORC (2012) Mineral Resource Estimate. Additionally, this could also potentially provide feed to a planned mill only 20 km south of the project. We look forward to updating shareholders on KalGold’s future RC and aircore drill programs throughout this priority area.” New results from Providence Follow-up drilling at KalGold’s Providence target has intersected more gold mineralisation from shallow levels immediately below transported cover. Intercepts are highlighted in Table 1 and for holes KGRC23015 and KGRC23016, shown in Figure 1. Table 1 – New intercepts from KalGold’s recent RC drilling at Providence prospect.

Gold mineralised lodes and intercepts are shown in reds. Calculated intercepts are hosted within coherent mineralisation (blue, see text) within sheared mafic to ultramafic rocks. This provides confidence for correlation between drill holes and in definition of multiple lodes. Projection: MGA 94 Zone 51. Figure 22 – Long section of RC and Diamond drilling at Kirgella and Providence, looking east. Bold black traces represent RC drilling completed by KalGold, including from the most recent program at Providence. To represent the breadths of gold mineralisation in the corridor and the likely multiple lodes present, the long section is particularly wide (±150m), meaning some of the drill holes may laterally pass out of the mineralised zones with depth. Projection: MGA 94 Zone 51. Page 3 New gold intercepts and targets at Providence The new gold mineralisation intercepted at Providence (Figure 1 and 2) shows strong similarities in style to Kirgella Gift to the north, as well as with KalGold’s recently defined RC drill intercepts at Providence. In all cases, the quoted intercepts are encased within a broader, sub-grade mineralised shear zone. These broader zones sometimes coalesce into a thicker, notable intercept. In KGRC23015, the three adjacent intercepts between 80 m and 103 m depth combine into a thicker, lower-grade intercept of 23 m at 1.08 g/t Au from 80 m (Table 1, Figure 1). Thick, well-mineralised intercepts like this are important in assessing the project for open pit mining possibilities. Correspondingly, the Company is statistically analysing datasets at Kirgella Gift and Providence defined by these broader zones (using lower cut-off values) for inclusion into future resource estimates. Figure 3 – Recent and historic drilling at Kirgella Gift and Providence, with new drill data added. A north-south striking, steeply west-dipping shear zone hosts and controls gold mineralisation at Kirgella North, Kirgella Gift, and Providence. A deep, structural intersection target between the southerly Kirgella Gift plunge and the northerly Providence plunge (Figure 2 above) is identified at depth beneath the highlighted area. This target will be tested with future drilling. Projection: MGA 94 Zone 51. Importantly, gold mineralisation shows continuity between adjacent drill holes in the same section and between sections, both at Kirgella Gift and Providence. With current drill hole spacing, there remains a gap between the target areas. Targeting concepts stemming from KalGold’s new results will be used in subsequent drilling programs. Page 4 New gold intercepts and targets at Providence Depth potential and targeting at Kirgella Gift and Providence KalGold’s latest drilling results confirm the Company’s preferred gold mineralisation model as previously announced to the market (ASX release, 23 May 2023). An intersection target commencing from around 180 m vertical depth beneath the southernmost extent of Kirgella Gift is evident in long section (Figures 2 and 3). Such intersections can be a locus for gold mineralisation, providing opportunity for grade and tonnage blow-outs. Therefore, testing this target will be a focus of KalGold’s future drill programs. About the Pinjin Project Kirgella Gift and Providence are the first targets to be tested at KalGold’s extensive Pinjin Gold Project, around 140 km east of Kalgoorlie Boulder. The project covers a substantial portion of the southern part of the highly prolific Laverton Tectonic Zone which, further north, hosts some of the Eastern Goldfields’ largest gold mines and deposits. Kirgella Gift is strategically located between Hawthorn Resources’ Anglo Saxon (Trouser Legs) open pit mine ~15 km to the north, and Ramelius Resources’ Rebecca gold development project ~21 km to the south. The Company aims to define a series of JORC Code (2012) Mineral Resource Estimates throughout the project area that could potentially provide feed to the planned mill to the south.

Importantly, KalGold’s methods resulted in the definition of a JORC resource estimate (3.61 Mt @ 1.19 g/t Au for 138,000 oz1) that is one of the most inexpensive in recent times (A$4.60 per ounce of gold). Exploration work continues at the project. • The Pinjin Project within the 30Moz Laverton Tectonic Zone (host to Sunrise Dam, Granny Smith, Rebecca, Anglo Saxon, and Wallaby projects) is located only 25km north along strike from Ramelius Resources (ASX: RMS) Rebecca Gold Project. With historic work identifying open gold mineralisation from shallow levels, immediate work is focused on testing mineralisation continuity. At Kirgella and Pinjin South, tenure is the subject of a farm-in over the next two years to expand upon known mineralisation. Between this tenure and KalGold’s existing tenure and applications, the Company has established a significant presence in a strategic and important region. • Other projects are the focus of early-stage exploration programs. Gold anomalism and recent discoveries are driving efforts at Perrinvale and Zelica. Additionally, lithium potential is being tested at the Pianto and Pinjin projects.
