GREATER DUCHESS COPPER GOLD PROJECT

Exploration at the Greater Duchess Copper Gold Project is ramping up with extensive IP surveys ongoing and drilling continuing with two drill rigs. A detailed aeromagnetic survey has just been completed along the Nil Desperandum IOCG corridor, highlighting a strong structural corridor between and beyond Nil Desperandum and Lady Fanny.

Results from a further nine IP lines have been received and processed from surveys completed at the Mount Hope and Duchess Prospects and are detailed below. For consistency, the colour contouring of the IP chargeability anomalies presented below is the same across all areas surveyed. It should be noted that the increased chargeabilities seen at Mount Hope may not necessarily translate to a larger or higher grade source although it is certainly encouraging.

Numerous strong IP chargeability anomalies have been generated from seven lines of IP completed at Mount Hope on 100 to 120m traverse spacing (Figure 1). The source of the chargeability anomalies is yet to be determined, however the spatial location of the IP anomalies is generally consistent and proximal to the location of historical open pits throughout the Mount Hope mining lease. An exception is the large central IP anomaly which has no known surface expression of copper sulphide mineralisation.

The IP lines were extended outside of the Mount Hope Mining Lease due to the need to get depth penetration of the IP within the 100% owned Mining Lease area. Some of the IP anomalies are very close to the boundary of the mining lease. The exact location of the mining lease boundary is currently being evaluated by the Queensland Department of Minerals as part of a normal process and may therefore be subject to small scale changes.

L10240N IP Line Anomaly

The strongest and largest IP chargeability anomaly yet recorded from all current and previous IP surveys completed at Greater Duchess was generated on line L10240N, which traversed across the Mount Hope North open pit. A very strong chargeability inversion anomaly of 47 msec was modelled at approximately 150m below surface (Figure 2). The IP anomaly is located in the core zone of the Mount Hope North pit area and is coincident with small northeast striking workings which have targeted an outcropping quartz ironstone ridge (Figure 1). Plans are underway to complete first pass drilling of this IP anomaly imminently.

L10000N IP Line Anomaly

A large and strong IP chargeability inversion anomaly was generated on line L10000N within the central part of the mining lease where no obvious signs of copper gold mineralisation are present (Figure 1). The IP anomaly has a peak modelled chargeability of 35.7 msec centred at approximately 140m below surface (Figure 3).

The source of this IP anomaly is unknown however represents an excellent drill target and will be drilled in the upcoming programs at Mount Hope.

L20100E IP Line Anomaly

Three IP lines were completed in a northeast orientation mainly targeting the Mount Hope Central pit and Binna Binna ridge workings. IP chargeability anomalies were recorded on all three lines. On line L20100E, a discrete and shallow IP chargeability anomaly was recorded on the north western edge of the Mount Hope Central open pit (Figure 1 - L20100A). A peak chargeability of 25.7 msec was recorded 70m below surface (Figure 4).

On the eastern end of the IP line L20100E a larger IP chargeability anomaly has been modelled with a peak chargeability of 27.4 msec located 50m below surface. The location of this anomaly (Figure 1 - L20100B) appears to line up with north south striking copper workings to the south and the eastern arm of the Mount Hope North open pit (Figure 1).
