Wilcherry Project JV

PROJECT OVERVIEW (Why Wilcherry?)

  • Located in the prospective Gawler Craton, northern Eyre Peninsula, South Australia
  • Has been explored since the 1970’s by companies including Pan Continental Mining, Asarco, Murumba Minerals, Shell

(later Acacia), WMC, Aquila Resources Ltd, Trafford Resources Ltd, Ironclad Mining Ltd (later Tyranna Resources Ltd). Drilling has identified significant mineralised systems within Palaeoproterozoic calcareous and iron-rich metasediments

  • Presence of Hiltaba Suite granites (~1600Ma) which are responsible for widespread gold, uranium and base metal

mineralisation in the Gawler Craton

  • The 2012 discovery of high grade tin at Zealous by Trafford indicates the presence of a reduced granite intrusions into

sediments, including multiple fold-repeated horizons of dolomite (a host rock for replacement tin deposits). Potentially represents a new and significant tin province in South Australia

  • Transported cover obscures most of the bedrock. Regolith of kaolinised saprock to depths of 40-100m. Groundwater saline

– strong geochemical depletion. This represents an opportunity for an explorer with experience is such terrains using modern geophysics

  • Substantial datasets of geophysics, surface geochemistry (>9,000 samples) and drilling (>3,000 holes)
  • 28 existing exploration targets prospective for gold, tin, copper, zinc, lead, silver, iron, bismuth, tungsten and uranium in a

variety of mineralisation styles

  • Priority prospects currently Weednanna (gold) and Zealous (tin)

Zealous Tin Prospect

ZEALOUS TIN PROSPECT

  • Located in the central northern area of EL5299
  • Lies between two elongated magnetic highs but is relatively quiet geophysically when compared to other Wilcherry iron

skarn targets

  • Iron subcrop noted on historical maps. Visited by Ironclad geologists sometime in 2007-2008 . First pass exploratory drilling

for DSO hematite in 2012.

  • The laboratory reported several samples from this drilling indicated missing mass in the Fe suite XRF. To show that it was

not a fault with the XRF, the laboratory checked the results using another analytical method and reported several other base metals including tin. The rest of the holes in the drill program were then analysed using Li-borate fusion ICPMS

  • Testwork indicates the tin is cassiterite
  • Regionally stands out as an arsenic anomaly and a weak gold anomaly in the historic calcrete data
  • Subsequent drilling for tin has defined two main lithologies:
  • High grade tin associated with a carbonate hosted goethitic iron unit
  • Lower grade tin associated with a weathered kaolinised unit (rhyolite or quartzite)
  • Ground magnetic survey in 2013 defined a magnetic response to the east of the current drilling, which is yet to be

explained by drilling

  • The prospect also contains elevated lead, zinc, uranium and copper

Weednanna Gold Prospect

WEEDNANNA GOLD PROSPECT

  • Originally a secondary base metal target to Menninnie Dam (Shell)
  • In 1997, Acacia identified a strong gold-in-calcrete anomaly coincident with a NNW-trending magnetic anomaly
  • In 2004, Aquila drilled a NW-trending target west of the main magnetic anomaly and intersected gold associated with a

calc-silicate (Weednanna West)

  • The magnetic anomaly was the crystalline magnetite target for Ironclad Mining Ltd and the main gold target for Trafford

Resources Ltd

  • Successive drilling campaigns identified that gold mineralisation associated with skarn (calc-silicate) alteration and

brecciation in the contact aureole of a granite

  • Along the magnetic anomaly, gold mineralisation can be traced for over 900m
  • Gold is associated with pyrite & arsenopyrite and occurs within the following rock types:
  • Calc-silicate
  • Crystalline magnetite
  • Weathered magnetite (goethite, hematite)
  • Gneiss (lower grade)
  • Shear zones within all lithologies
  • Skarn system at Weednanna also contains elevated tin, uranium, lead and zinc

Garema Gold Project (100%)

  • ELA – not yet granted
  • Located 25 km south of Forbes, NSW
  • The Parkes Fault Zone (PFZ) is located immediately west of the

tenement and is associated with significant gold deposits &

  • ccurrences over a strike length of 100 km between Forbes

and Tomingley

  • The tenements contains the historic Pinnacles Mining Centre,

where a number of mines were worked between 1883 and 1936 for total recorded production >158 kg gold

  • The area has been explored by a number of companies since

the early 1980’s

  • Previous exploration defined a 7 km x 500m +10ppb gold-in-

soil anomaly over this district

  • Prospective for Ordovician sediment-hosted orogenic gold

deposits, based on it structural position within the PFZ and the existing gold occurrences, which have not been thoroughly tested at depth, along strike or below transported cover

Styles East & West Prospects

  • Styles East and West prospects have been identified

as the most favourable for more detailed analysis

  • Previous drilling carried out by Nicron Resources JV in

1984-88 and Compass Resources in 2003-04

  • Gold mineralisation at Styles West is developed on

the margins of an altered syenite

  • The results, whilst somewhat variable in grade,

thickness and depth of intersection, do show continuity of gold mineralisation over a strike length

  • f 450m to 500m and open at both ends
  • Requires further review of the drilling, sampling and

assay data that underpins the reported grade thickness values prior to mapping, geophysics and drilling
