Drilling program returns hits of up to 18.37g/t Au, confirming continuity and

robustness of upper 200m of the current 760koz Resource

Key Points:

  • Significant new assay results received from ongoing drilling designed to upgrade the current Ulysses Mineral Resource (7.1Mt @ 3.3g/t gold for 760,400oz1).
  • Drilling continuing over a 1km strike length to in-fill and extend the Resource, with new results received since the last update on 22 October 2019 including:

6m @ 9.28g/t gold from 121m

  • Genesis is on track to complete the current ~20,000m drilling program in November to upgrade and extend the top 200m of the Resource in preparation for eventual mining.
  • Updated Mineral Resource estimate scheduled for Q4, 2019.

Genesis Minerals Limited (ASX: GMD) is pleased to report further outstanding high-grade assay results from the ongoing program of in-fill and extensional resource upgrade drilling at its 100%- owned 760,000oz1 Ulysses Gold Project, located 30km south of Leonora in WA.

Further assay results from the ongoing drilling program have been received from drilling along the entire strike length of the Resource, targeting between the 350mRL to 200mRL, up to ~200m below surface. Drilling is targeting areas both within and adjacent to the current Resource boundary and continues to intersect significant high-grade gold mineralisation.

The latest batch of assays further support and reinforce the initial high-grade results reported over the last two months (see GMD ASX Announcements: 9/09/2019 and 22/10/2019).

Over 20,000m of drilling will be completed in the coming weeks to upgrade the top 200m of the Resource in preparation for mining. Drilling is targeting approximately 1km of strike and some 300m of down-dip extent within and adjacent to the current Resource envelope. At Ulysses West, drilling will target ~600m of down-plunge extent.

Commenting on the latest results, Genesis Managing Director, Michael Fowler, said:

"The resource upgrade program is now entering its final two weeks and is on track to be completed by the end of November. We are continuing to see very good widths and grades in the upper 200m of the Resource, confirming the continuity, robustness and tenor of the mineralisation within the high-grade shoots.

"We expect to deliver an updated Resource before the end of the year which will provide the foundation for ongoing mining studies. Our drilling continues to demonstrate that we have a very robust and high-grade asset at Ulysses with all of the attributes, including a Tier-1 location, that will help us to advance it towards development."

Upgrade Drilling Results

Further results have been received from the Resource upgrade drilling program that commenced at Ulysses in August. High-grade gold mineralisation (see Figure 1) was encountered in Reverse Circulation (RC) and diamond drilling (19USRC381 to 402 and 19USDH116 to 124)) completed as part of the drilling.

A total of 22 RC holes for 3,819m and nine diamond holes for 1,661m (including pre-collars) in the reported drilling were completed with an average hole depth of 177m. The results are from holes targeting the upper parts of the Ulysses Mineral Resource (see Figure 1) with the drilling continuing to support the continuity of the higher-grade gold mineralisation.

Hole 19USRC402 returned strong gold mineralisation with a result of 12m @ 6.39g/t gold including 3m @ 18.37g/t gold. This intersection is interpreted to occur within the Ulysses West quartz dolerite, which is one of the favourable host rocks for high-grade gold mineralisation at Ulysses. It occurs on the eastern limit of the intersection of the Ulysses West quartz dolerite and the Ulysses shear, and potentially expands the zone of high-grade mineralisation associated with the Ulysses West shoot.

High-grade gold intersections from the recent holes include:

6m @ 9.28g/t gold from 121m

  • Including 3m @ 14.36g/t gold

dipping shear zone (Ulysses Shear), which has sinistral strike-slip

kinematics. The Ulysses Shear cuts at low angle through the entirely

mafic stratigraphy, which is slightly more NW-striking, and dips 30° to

the NE. The most distinctive features of the stratigraphy are a pair of

titano-magnetite-rich quartz dolerite sills.

The Ulysses Shear has a highly predictable geometry and is mineralised

throughout the deposit area. Typical mineralised intervals consist of

biotite-silica-albite-carbonate-pyrite-pyrrhotitelode-style alteration, with

1-20%quartz-sulphide veining. Highest-grade intervals are associated

with intense silica-albite-sulphide replacement of the shear fabric.

Though mineralised throughout, the Ulysses Shear hosts three currently

known high-grade shoots, the controls on which have been established

through mapping, structural analysis, and 3D geological modelling.

The Ulysses West shoot, mined in the Ulysses West open pit, is

controlled by the intersection of the Ulysses Shear with the Western

Quartz Dolerite. This intersectional shoot has a strike length of ~150 m,

plunges 35° to the NE, and has currently been intercepted to +400m

down-plunge (250 metres below surface).

The Ulysses East shoot, mined in the eastern end of the main Ulysses

open pit, is controlled by the intersection of the Ulysses Shear with the

Eastern Quartz Dolerite. The intersectional geometries here are

complicated by the Ulysses Shear splitting into a series of sub-parallel

structures. This has the effect of creating a series of stacked

intersectional ore-shoots, each of which plunge 30° to the NE. The main

part of the Ulysses East shoot has a strike length of ~200m and has

currently been intercepted to +380 m down-plunge (240 metres below

surface).

The Ulysses Central shoot, mined in the western end of the main

Ulysses open pit, is hosted in ordinary dolerite and pillow basalt (not

quartz dolerite). Its location is controlled by the intersection of the

Ulysses Shear with a hangingwall splay shear, which creates a grade-

tonnage blowout plunging 30° to the north, parallel to the merge-point of

the two structures. This shoot has a strike length of ~100 m and has

currently been intercepted to +290 m down plunge (180 metres below

surface).
