The Company's Managing Director, Rob Watkins commented:
"The Lady Fanny, Burke & Wills and Nil Desperandum discoveries are rapidly emerging as a major new and vastly underexplored Iron Oxide Copper Gold corridor with untold size potential. We are looking forward to the commencement of the IP geophysical surveys today and the start of drilling by week's end."

GREATER DUCHESS COPPER GOLD PROJECT
LADY FANNY PROSPECT (CARNABY 100%)
Results from the four remaining RC holes drilled at Lady Fanny at the end of 2021 have all recorded strong high-grade copper gold results (Figure 1, 2, 3 & 4, Table 2). Significant results include;
LFRC008
- 40m @ 1.0% Cu, 0.1g/t Au from Surface including 13m @ 1.5% Cu, 0.1 g/t Au from 20m and 11m @ 1.7% Cu, 0.2g/t Au from 71m including 4m @ 3.6% Cu, 0.1g/t Au from 72m

For personal use only
LFRC008 was drilled under the ~10m deep Lady Fanny east pit intersecting two significant parallel lodes with high grade copper and gold mineralisation over broad widths (Figure 1). Shallow workings were intersected in the top part of the hole where stope voids were recorded from 22-23m and 32-33m (Figure 3). Mineralisation was intersected from the start of the hole and additional drilling is required to step back and test the full width of mineralisation at the surface.
LFRC022
-
25m @ 0.7% Cu, 0.1 g/t Au from 0m
5m @ 1.0% Cu, 0.2 g/t Au from 44m
14m @ 0.8% Cu, 0.2 g/t Au from 70m Including 5m @ 1.3% Cu, 0.3 g/t Au from 70m
LFRC022 was drilled under the ~10m deep Lady Fanny east pit intersecting two significant parallel lodes with broad widths of copper and gold mineralisation intersected (Figure 2). Mineralisation was intersected from the start of the hole and additional drilling is required to step back and test the full width of the western mineralised shoot. LFRC022 was drilled on section and up dip from LFRC009 which intersected 27m @ 2.8% copper, 0.8 g/t gold from 61m (see ASX release 13 January 2022).
LFRC021
- 10m @ 1.2% Cu, 0.1 g/t Au from 10m Including 2m @ 4.8% Cu, 0.4 g/t Au from 13m
LFRC004
- 7m @ 1.3% Cu, 0.05 g/t Au from 31m Including 3m @ 2.4% Cu, 0.04g/t Au from 31m
LFRC021 and LFRC004 were drilled south of the main Lady Fanny workings and have intersected a continuous lode horizon now defined by drilling over greater than 200m strike. The Lady Fanny line of lode remains completely open south of LFRC021 where the outcropping mineralisation tracks under shallow alluvium and remains completely undrilled.

For personal use only
The Lady Fanny prospect is rapidly emerging as a significant IOCG discovery only 3 km north of the spectacular Nil Desperandum discovery. To date first pass RC drilling has only scoped out the southern 200m strike of the workings where every drill hole has intersected significant mineralisation and broad zones of copper gold mineralisation in some stunning drill intersections. Extensive workings exist for a further 200m strike north from the closest drilling and remain undrilled due only to the drill rig not completing the planned program prior to the Christmas break.
Carnaby plans to complete a major drill out of the Lady Fanny prospect over the 400m known strike and explore for lateral and depth extensions using IP geophysics for targeting which has proved very successful at Nil Desperandum and is yet to be trialled at Lady Fanny.

BURKE & WILLS PROSPECT (CARNABY 82.5%)
The Burke & Wills prospect is located approximately 400m west of Lady Fanny, representing a parallel north south striking outcropping copper gold lode that has been shallowly worked in several turn of the century workings, but has remarkably had no modern-day exploration and had never been drilled prior to the first drill hole Carnaby completed late last year. Assays from an additional two RC holes completed have produced the following results;
BWRC006
- 5m @ 2.2% Cu, 0.2g/t Au from 44m Including 1m @ 8.8% Cu, 0.4 g/t Au from 46m
