Field Programme Mobilisation at Green Rock

In brief · summary, not quotable

Forgent plc has announced the mobilisation of its exploration team to commence its maiden field programme at the Green Rock Copper-Gold Project in Western Australia, following its acquisition of a 99% interest. Historical exploration has identified high-grade mineralisation, with reported grades up to 46.7% copper and 5.31 g/t gold. The programme aims to validate these historical findings, define potential drill targets, and understand the structural controls of the mineralisation, with maiden drilling anticipated in August 2026.

Forgent plc (AIM: FORG), the technology-led energy transition company, announces that its exploration team will mobilise to site over the coming weekend to commence the Company's maiden field programme at the Green Rock Copper-Gold Project in Western Australia.

The mobilisation follows the Company's recently announced acquisition of a 99% interest in the Green Rock Project, located in the Ashburton Basin in the southern Pilbara region of Western Australia.

Historical exploration at Green Rock has identified high‑grade copper and gold mineralisation at surface, including reported grades of up to 46.7% copper and 5.31 g/t gold associated with structurally controlled mineralisation across multiple prospects within the project area.

The upcoming programme represents the commencement of a systematic field campaign at the project, designed to validate and extend on historical data and define potential drill targets.

Programme Objectives

Validate previously reported high‑grade copper-gold rock-chip samples
Undertake systematic infill sampling between historical sample locations
Test strike extensions of known mineralised zones
Determine the orientation and structural controls of copper-gold mineralisation
Generate priority targets for potential drilling

Planned Activities

The exploration team will undertake systematic rock-chip sampling across four priority target areas: Minga Central/West, Green Hat, K16 South and Minga North. The programme includes infill and validation sampling of historical high‑grade copper-gold results as well as stream sediment sampling across surrounding drainage systems to identify potential strike extensions and additional mineralised trends.

All samples from the programme will be submitted for multi‑element laboratory analysis including copper and gold assays.

Next Steps

Results from the programme will be used to refine the geological model for the Green Rock project and prioritise targets for follow‑up drilling. Maiden drilling is currently targeted for August 2026. Further updates will be provided once the field programme is completed.

James Parsons, CEO of Forgent, said:

"The mobilisation of our exploration team to Green Rock marks an important operational milestone for Forgent as we begin our maiden field programme at what we believe is a highly prospective copper-gold project. This work is intended to validate historical high-grade results, improve our geological understanding of the asset and support drill targeting ahead of a potential maiden drilling campaign in August 2026."
