  • Native Title, Heritage Protection and Mineral Exploration Agreement (HPA) signed with the Gooniyandi Aboriginal Corporation for Albion’s entire Lennard Shelf Zinc-Lead Project

  • Strong alliance between the Gooniyandi Aboriginal Corporation, Gooniyandi Traditional Owners and the Albion Board has been formed

  • Key milestone which now enables Albion to progress its diamond drilling program, subject to cultural clearance of the targeted exploration areas

  • The drilling program will focus on the Pillara East Sub Project and its several promising prospects, including where historical drillhole EPP11 intersected 4.6m @ 5% Zn and 30.5% Pb from 54m

Albion Resources Limited ("Albion" or the "Company") is pleased to announce a Native Title, Heritage Protection and Mineral Exploration Agreement (HPA) has been signed with the Gooniyandi Aboriginal Corporation (GAC), the registered native title body corporate for the Gooniyandi Traditional Owners, for Albion’s entire Lennard Shelf ZincLead Project (the “Project”) in Fitzroy Crossing, southern Kimberley, Western Australia.

The Gooniyandi Traditional Owners are the recognised native title holders of the land on which the Company’s Project is located. The HPA was signed following recent meetings in Fitzroy Crossing with GAC Committee Members and Gooniyandi Traditional Owners (Figure 1) and sets out the framework for Albion in conducting exploration on Gooniyandi Country, protecting cultural heritage and endeavouring to provide community benefits.

Executive Chairman, Colin Locke commented:

“I would like to personally extend my gratitude to the GAC Committee Members and Gooniyandi Traditional Owners for inviting Albion to Fitzroy Crossing to finalise the HPA. The timely signing of the HPA is a testament to the strong alliance that has quickly been formed between Albion and the Gooniyandi.

Albion are now working closely with the GAC to obtain cultural clearance and launch into the maiden drill campaign across our high-grade Zinc-Lead prospects at Pillara East as soon as possible.

We are really excited to get the drill bit turning. A discovery could have a significantly positive impact for the local Gooniyandi community and Albion Shareholders.”

This announcement has been approved for release by the Board.

ABOUT LENNARD SHELF PROJECT:

Albion’s high grade Zinc-Lead Lennard Shelf Project is located in the world class Mississippi Valley type Zinc-Lead province, the Lennard Shelf, approximately 30 km southeast of Fitzroy Crossing in the Kimberley, Western Australia. Despite hosting significant historic mines, Pillara (19.3Mt @ 7.8% Zn + 2.6% Pb) and the Cadjebut Trend (16.4Mt @ 8.9% Zn + 5% Pb), regional exploration in the Lennard Shelf Province has been largely overlooked since the late 1980’s.

The Lennard Shelf Project, comprising four sub-projects, covers an expansive area of ~393 km[2] and contains comparable geology to Pillara and the Cadjebut Trend. Work done by Albion to date has assisted in defining prominent ENE trending structures, interpreted to be the control of the zinc-lead mineralisation. With highly anomalous geochemical samples and historical drill intercepts, such as 4.6m @ 5% Zn and 30.5% Pb from 53.3m, positioned on these ENE trending structures, the Company has numerous prospects that warrant drill testing.
