Kilparney Extended Geophysics Update
The Company has completed a gravity geophysical survey over EL8270 located 40 kilometres south of Nymagee in Central NSW
Deep (and conductive) overburden to a depth of approximately 90m in many places in the region mitigates
against some geophysical techniques. As basement structure is a key factor in localising the Cobar style deposits, infill gravity was proposed. This technique has been applied in the region and at Golden Cross' Burra Prospect near Canbelego with encouraging results.
The area of EL8270 is characterised by sparse outcrop and overburden of unknown depth.
The main feature of interest has been the western end of the licence adjacent to the Kilparney Prospect,
a regional magnetic feature which has been prospected previously by other explorers.
Current regional gravity data is wide spaced approximately 4km x 2km, with insufficient stations over the main features to achieve resolution suitable for targeting. There is potential to clarify basement structure at reasonable cost with infill stations.

To assess the usefulness of the gravity technique, Cobar based, Precision Exploration Services were engaged to access EL8270 and collected gravity readings on a first pass 800m x 800m grid pattern. Dense scrub impacted access to most of the sites.
A total of 54 sites were accessed. The data have been collated and reviewed to produce preliminary images as shown in Figure 1 and 2

For personal use only
While no clear gravity features are evident in the images adjacent to the Kilparney Prospect, a gravity high at the eastern end of EL8270 is of interest where it coincides with a magnetic high in regional datasets.
The data is to be interpreted in more detail by geophysicist and further processing and evaluation are to be planned in the next stage of work.
This announcement has been reviewed and authorised for release by the GCR Board.

Sampling techniques
- Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
- Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.
- The Kilparney Gravity Survey was completed by Precision Exploration Services, Cobar NSW.
- After mobilization, initial access recce & establishment of a local GPS Base site; a Gravity Control Base point ( 2100675), was brought in from the nearest AFGN Base 1993912105 , situated on the Kidman Way South of Gilgunnia.
- The GPS was initially run from autonomous coordinates & files of 30 second static data were collected for both onsite check processing & later submission to Trimble RTX Post processing
For personal use
The carried in gravity base point (2100675), was located on the main access; the transecting cleared & graded Gas Pipeline. From this base, traverse reading loops were undertaken, carrying gravity ties out across the grid area.
Grid gravity traversing was effected with station navigation per a Garmin Montana 680 Handheld GPS.
Stations were centred on a nominal 800m square grid. Some station sites were moved to read stable ground with acceptable sky/satellite view.
Gravity Readings were taken with a Model G Lacoste & Romberg Meter
Survey of reading station coordinates & levels were measured with 6 minute x 30 second static post processed baselines with a pair Trimble SPS880/R8 units
With the returned RTX GPS Base GDA 94 LL coordinates, the final GPS survey project was re-processed per Trimble TBC to generate corrected positions for all measured stations.
Gravity Processing
Instrument gravity readings were processed with STRIDER Gravity Software.
Reductions for TIDE, LATTITUDE undertaken with GRAVRED with a residual Drift file produced.
Further Bouguer corrections were undertaken through BOUGUER. This process applied corrections for FREE AIR & Infinite Slab Bouguer
The entire survey area is gently tilted from the NE Corner to the SW Corner.
