Glandore: Exploration Drilling Programs |

A detailed geological interpretation of the project area was developed
based on the detailed geological database. This review confirmed that
the favourable localisation of gold mineralisation is controlled by the
intersection of the magnetite enriched, dolerite and gabbroic phases of
the Glandore Sill, with the axial-planar faults and shear zones within
the hinge zone of the Glandore Antiform (Figures 2 and Figure 3). The
Company believes this is a similar structural setting to the Golden
Mile in Kalgoorlie and a number of other important gold deposits in
Western Australia.

The potential for gold mineralisation at depth increases from south to
north along the tenements due to the plunge of the anticline which has
been interpreted to be 20° to the north.
From the interpretation, an exploration program was prepared and
over 2,000m of Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling has been conducted.
Initial testing was three significant near surface gold mineralised
target areas of the Supergene Zone and the Central Fault Zone.
This initial drilling produced very positive results, confirming
mineralisation to be open at depth and to the north and south of the
Supergene Zone and open down dip and along strike of the South Central
Zone.
Further drilling is in progress.
