Alchemy Resources Limited (ASX: ALY) (“Alchemy”) is pleased to announce that Sandfire Resources NL (ASX: SFR) has received several anomalous copper and gold results from Phase 1 aircore drilling along strike to the southwest of the De Grussa copper-gold deposit within Alchemy’s 100% owned Bryah Basin Project in the Gascoyne region ( Figure 1 ). Some 584 aircore holes (42,019m) have been drilled on a 1.6km x 100m spacing across approximately 65% of the 40 kilometre strike of the Karalundi sediments, host to the De Grussa VMS copper-gold mineralisation.

Figure 1 : Bryah Basin Project showing Phase 1 aircore drilling.

Best results from the first 387 holes include seven 5m composite samples >200ppm Cu to a maximum of 5m @ 0.13% Cu. Results for other elements include; 5m @ 0.27g/t Au, 5m @ 0.16g/t Au, 10m @ 540ppm Zn, 5m @ 428ppm Pb, and 5m @ 114ppm Bi. Infill aircore drilling at 800m and 400m line spacings will be undertaken on the completion of the wide spaced ~900 hole Phase 1 drill program. Follow-up RC drilling has commenced with two holes (682m) now completed at the Churchill prospect and another four RC holes planned (Figure 2) . All RC results are pending.

A detailed moving loop electromagnetic (MLEM) survey designed to further improve targeting of the host volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) horizon has also commenced. Processing of the EM data is ongoing and along with the recently collected gravity data, will be incorporated into existing regional datasets and inversion models created. The resulting models will then be used to target VMS mineralisation and further refine the Phase 2 drill program.

Aircore drilling has also been planned for the Horseshoe Lights area. This drilling will target copper-gold mineralisation within the Narracoota volcanics and the Ravelstone Formation sediments.

Alchemy’s Managing Director, Leigh Ryan said:

“We’re very happy with the intensive exploration effort being undertaken by Sandfire within the highly prospective De Grussa host rocks and look forward to the integration of gravity, EM and drilling geochem datasets to further define and prioritise drill targets. Sandfire has unequalled knowledge and information on De Grussa style mineralisation and are fully incentivised to find another major copper-gold deposit in the district. This is a very exciting time for Alchemy and we’re looking forward to additional drilling results over the next few months.”

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. _
AC samples are collected using spear techniques
for both composite and single metre samples.
RC samples are collected by a cone splitter for
single metre samples or a sampling spear for first
pass composite samples using a face sampling
hammer with a nominal 140mm hole.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure
sample representivity and the appropriate
calibration of any measurement tools or

In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has
been done this would be relatively simple (e.g.
‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1
m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to
produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other
cases more explanation may be required, such
as where there is coarse gold that has inherent
sampling problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules)
may warrant disclosure of detailed information.
AC and RC samples are crushed to -4mm through
a Boyd crusher and representative subsamples
pulverised via LM5.
Pulverising is to nominal 90% passing -75µm and
checked using wet sieving technique.
Samples are assayed using Mixed 4 Acid Digest
(MAD) 0.3g charge and MAD Hotbox 0.15g
charge methods with ICPOES or ICPMS.
Fire Assay is completed by firing 40g portion of
the sample with ICPMS finish.

Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting
averaging techniques, maximum and/or
minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of
high grades) and cut-off grades are usually
Material and should be stated.
Significant intersections are based on various cut-
off grades as documented in Table A in the main
body of this release.
All metal grades used for calculating significant
intersections are uncut.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate
short lengths of high grade results and longer
lengths of low grade results, the procedure
used for such aggregation should be stated
and
some
typical
examples
of
such
aggregations should be shown in detail.
Reported intersections are based on
5m
composite samples collected by combining
individual 1m samples from AC drilling.
The assumptions used for any reporting of
metal equivalent values should be clearly
stated.
No metal equivalents are used in the intersection
calculations.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths
and
intercept
lengths
These relationships are particularly important
in the reporting of Exploration Results.
Downhole intercepts of mineralisation reported
in this release are from drill holes orientated
approximately perpendicular to the understood
regional stratigraphy. The drill hole may not
necessarily be perpendicular to the mineralised
zone. All widths are reported as downhole
intervals.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with
respect to the drill-hole angle is known, its
nature should be reported.
The geometry of the mineralisation, relative to
the drill hole, is unknown at this stage.
If it is not known and only the down hole
lengths are reported, there should be a clear
statement to this effect (e.g. ‘down hole
_length, true width not known’). _
All intersections reported in this release are
downhole intervals. True widths are not known at
this stage.
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales)
and tabulations of intercepts should be
included for any significant discovery being
reported These should include, but not be
limited to a plan view of drill hole collar
locations and appropriate sectional views.
Appropriate maps are included within the body
of the accompanying document.
Balanced
reporting
Where
comprehensive reporting
of
all
Exploration
Results
is
not
practicable,
representative reporting of both low and high
grades and/or widths should be practiced to
avoid misleading reporting of Exploration
The accompanying document is considered to
represent a balanced report.
