  • Drilling highlights significantly higher grades at both deposits and three distinct parallel mineralised lodes at Regal with mineralisation starting from surface
  • Extensive metallurgical test work and previous trial mining and milling showed recoveries of over 91% from conventional carbon in leach ore processing with a high gravity component
  • The updated geological model for Boorara Stage 1 is well advanced and is expected to be released with the mine optimisation, design and economic evaluation in the current March Quarter 2020 2

Commenting on the latest results from Boorara, Horizon Managing Director Mr Jon Price said:

"The results from Regal and Crown Jewel continue to demonstrate the considerable potential at Boorara with high grades intercepted at mineable widths and the ore starting at surface. The drilling has intercepted both the main NNW striking zones and multiple flat cross cutting vein sets and has certainly exceeded our expectations. "

"The focus is now on delivering a robust model, mine optimisation and economic evaluation to meet our objective of bringing Stage 1 of Boorara into production in 2020 and unlocking further value from the larger scale development being assessed as part of the Feasibility Study due out in December Quarter 2020. "

Overview

Horizon Minerals Limited (ASX: HRZ) ("Horizon" or the "Company") is pleased to announce further excellent reverse circulation ("RC") drilling results from the 100% owned Boorara gold project located 10km east of Kalgoorlie-Boulder in the heart of the Western Australian goldfields (Figure 1).

Figure 1: Kalgoorlie Regional Project area location and surrounding infrastructure

During the December Quarter 2019, the Company completed 18,000m of infill Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling on 4m x 10m (south) and 5m x 10m (north) drill spacing to a maximum depth of 54m at the Royal (southern stockwork), Crown Jewel (central) and Regal (northern stockwork) deposits (Figures 1 and 2).

Project Summary and Geology

The Boorara gold project is located on granted Mining Leases 1km southwest of the Nimbus site where established offices are connected to mains power and a production water supply from the Stoneville bore field.

The deposit is hosted in a typical quartz dolerite comprising a sheeted quartz vein array system with bounding shear zones and late stage cross faults. Mineralisation occurs as:

  1. Northwest dipping sheeted and stockwork quartz-carbonate vein arrays within the quartz dolerite host rocks
  2. Steeply dipping zones along sheared geological contacts trending to the north-northwest

A significant amount of RC and diamond drilling has been completed at Boorara over the last 10 years with the project hosting a current Mineral Resource Estimate totalling 16.45Mt grading 0.96g/t Au for 507,000oz at a 0.5g/t Au cut-off grade.1

Gold mineralisation is associated with pyrite and arsenopyrite with alteration halos of iron carbonate, sericite and bleaching. The current resource covers a strike length of over 1.8km and widths of over 250m and remains open along strike to the south and north and at depth.

A small scale trial pit to 20m depth was mined in the Royal area at Boorara in 2016, with ore up to 15m wide mined on 2.5m high flitches 2. A close spaced grade control program undertaken prior to mining yielded planned trial pit grades well above the global resource grade of 1g/t 1. Ore mined from the trial pit was processed at FMR Investments' Greenfields Mill in Coolgardie which reconciled at 30,239 tonnes at 1.73g/t of high grade ore, with an additional 13,095 tonnes at 0.68g/t of low grade still stockpiled at Boorara.

Depth of weathering can vary from less than 10m in the northern area and over 60m in the southern area. The ore is free milling with gold recoveries > 90% with a high gravity recoverable component as demonstrated through extensive metallurgical test work and trial mining and ore processing. 2

The aim of the current grade control program was to further test the grade uplift potential on a larger scale and enable a new geological model to be compiled for mine optimisation, design and economic analysis. In addition, the data will be used to update the global resource model as part of the Feasibility Study underway for the larger scale development to underpin a standalone processing facility at Boorara or collaboration with neighbouring companies.

The results received from the Regal and Crown Jewel deposit (Figures 2 - 8) demonstrate the higher gold grades resulting from this close spaced grade control drilling.

Three parallel lodes were grade control drilled at Regal, with all lodes at a 060 azimuth and -60 dip on a 5m x 10m drill spacing. Near vertical quartz dolerite lodes with multiple quartz vein arrays were intercepted as well as multiple flat NW dipping quartz lodes.

At Crown Jewel, vertical grade control holes (4mx10m drill spacing) intercepted the quartz dolerite lode from surface with multiple vein arrays.

Next Steps 1

All results will now be used to compile an independent geological model for Boorara Stage 1 comprising all three deposits. The model will be generated by BM Geological Services Pty Ltd, a local geological consultancy who has significant experience in the region and with this style of mineralisation. On completion of the model, a mine optimisation and design will be undertaken across three starter pits to generate a mining inventory for mine scheduling and economic evaluation.

Significant metallurgical test work has been completed and previous mining and milling data demonstrated expected gold recoveries of >91% with a high gravity recovery component.

Discussions with mining, haulage and toll milling contractors are well advanced and all statutory approvals have been submitted to meet the Company's objective to be mining at Boorara in the June Quarter 2020 and toll milling in the September Quarter 2020.

Forward Looking and Cautionary Statements

Some statements in this report regarding estimates or future events are forward looking statements. They include indications of, and guidance on, future earnings, cash flow, costs and financial performance. Forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements preceded by words such as "planned", "expected", "projected", "estimated", "may", "scheduled", "intends", "anticipates", "believes", "potential", "could", "nominal", "conceptual" and similar expressions. Forward looking statements, opinions and estimates included in this announcement are based on assumptions and contingencies which are subject to change without notice, as are statements about market and industry trends, which are based on interpretations of current market conditions. Forward looking statements are provided as a general guide only and should not be relied on as a guarantee of future performance. Forward looking statements may be affected by a range of variables that could cause actual results to differ from estimated results, and may cause the Company's actual performance and financial results in future periods to materially differ from any projections of future performance or results expressed or implied by such forward looking statements.

preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.

  • RC recovery and meterage was assessed by comparing drill chip volumes for individual meters. Estimates of sample recoveries were recorded. Routine checks for correct sample depths are undertaken every RC rod (6m). RC sample recoveries were visually checked for recovery, moisture and contamination. The cyclone was routinely cleaned ensuring no material build up.
  • Due to the generally good/standard drilling conditions around sample intervals (dry) the geologist believes the samples are representative, some bias would occur in the advent of poor sample recovery which was logged where rarely encountered.
  • No sample bias has been identified to date.

Logging

Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and

geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support

appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and

metallurgical studies.

  • Each RC metre drilled underwent logging through the entire hole with record kept of colour, quartz percentage, lithology, degree of oxidation, and type and intensity of alteration, veining and sulphide content.
  • Logging was qualitative in nature.
  • All drill holes were geologically logged in full (100%).

  • No geophysical assay tools were used.
  • Certified Reference Materials (standards) are purchased from an independent supplier of such materials. Blanks are made up from samples previously collected from other drill programs at that have analysed as less than detection Au values.

  • At least two different company personnel visually verified intersections in the collected drill chips. A representative sample of each metre is collected and stored for further verification if needed.
  • Work was supervised by senior ALS staff experienced in metals assaying. QC data reports confirming the sample quality are supplied.

another at 315°/65°W. Dampier Mining Pty Ltd and Texas Gulf Australia Ltd in 1980 drilled 20 RC holes

for 1,038m and 10 diamond holes for 1,695m. Western Reefs NL in 1985 undertook soil sampling on a

40m x 20m grid. They also completed 180 RAB holes for 9892m, 268 RC holes for 20,831m and 26

diamond holes for 2,609m. Geological mapping was undertaken by Western Reefs including costean

mapping and sampling. The Cataract shaft was refurbished and geologically mapped and surveyed. The

Crown Jewel shaft was geological mapped and surveyed also. Windsor Resources in 1988 drilled 174 RC

holes for 11,274m. Newmont in 1990 drilled 338 RAB holes for 15,446m, 39 RC holes for 4,319m and 4

Project in 1993 drilled 116 RC holes for 6,222m. Fimiston Mining NL in 1995 drilled 110 RC holes for

7,257m and 1 diamond hole for 195m. The data relating to the Boorara gold deposits comprising the

Southern Stockwork Zone, Northern Stockwork Zone, Cataract Area, East Lode and Digger Dam was

reviewed. The database was updated to incorporate the drilling completed by Fimiston and cross sections

and interpretations made. A global polygonal based resource estimate was made which estimated

resources of 2.25 million tonnes @ 1.40g/t Au at a cut-off grade of 0.5g/t or 1.42 million tonnes @ 1.72

g/t Au at a cut off of 1.0 g/t to be estimated. Block modelling of this polygonal data was then completed

which returned a total oxide resource of 1,293,000 tonnes @ 1.49 g/t, and a total fresh resource of

1,095,000 tonnes @ 1.86g/t. New Hampton Goldfields Ltd in 2001 undertook a resource estimate at

Boorara which resulted in a JORC compliant undiluted mineral resource of 1,506,000t @ 1.85 g/t Au.

Open pit design of the Southern Stockwork, Cataract and the Northern Stockwork resulted in a Probable

Reserve of 179,000t @ 3.0 g/t Au. The New Hampton Goldfields Ltd - Jubilee Gold Operations report,

Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.

The Boorara Au deposit is an Archaean mesothermal Au deposit. The Boorara local geology consists of a

sequence of ultramafic, mafic and felsic volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks, with interflow carbonaceous

sediments found on the lithological boundaries. Dolerite intrusions are conformable within the sequence.

The metamorphic grade of rocks at Boorara is lower greenschist facies. The alteration assemblage

associated with better Au grades consists of quartz carbonate and sericite. Pyrite and arsenopyrite are

associated with the better Au grades at Boorara. Mineralisation envelopes at Boorara consist of three

dominant orientations:

1. Regal - NW trending sub-vertical mineralisation which is typically sub parallel to lithology contacts,

with quartz dolerite hosted NW striking and shallow to moderate NW dipping veins and arrays.

2.

Crown Jewel - NW trending, NE shallow dipping mineralisation, sub parallel to lithology contacts

3.

Regal - Quartz dolerite hosted NW striking with shallow to moderate NW dipping vein arrays as seen

in the Boorara trial pit.
