Further core drilling initiated at the Boda Porphyry Prospect

  • A follow up drilling program of initially five core holes totaling ~5,000 metres is scheduled to commence to test the substantial Boda porphyry gold-copper mineralisation identified in KSDD003 along strike and down dip.

Northern Molong Porphyry Project (NMPP)

Alkane Resources Ltd 100%

The Northern Molong Porphyry Project (NMPP) incorporates three exploration licences; Bodangora (EL 4022), Kaiser (EL 6209) and Finns Crossing (EL 8361), covering an area of 110km[2] of the northern Molong Volcanic Belt (MVB), in the Central West of New South Wales.

The recent discovery of significant porphyry style gold-copper mineralisation at the Boda Prospect (ASX Announcement 9 September 2019) within the NMPP, highlight ~~s t~~ he potential for large porphyry goldcopper deposits in the area. Alkane’s exploration activity has established a geological framework for the region which highlights strong similarities with the Cadia Valley district, 110km to the south. Although apparently structurally more complex than the Cadia Valley area, Alkane has been able to reconstruct the geology in the area and has shown that a stratigraphic sequence very similar to that at Cadia exists within the project area, and that mineralisation is hosted by very similar rock types at similar stratigraphic positions.

The Boda target forms part of the Kaiser-Boda intrusive complex which has been mapped over a northsouth strike length of about 5km and 1km wide corridor defined by monzonite intrusives, extensive alteration and widespread low grade gold-copper mineralisation within the host andesite-basalt volcanic and volcaniclastic sequence. A single diamond drill hole (KSDD003, 770.8m) was drilled to test the depth extent of gold mineralisation identified in RC drilling at the northern end of the Boda Intrusive Complex (BIC). KSDD003 returned a broad intercept of 502m @ 0.48g/t gold, 0.20% copper from 211m with extensive alteration indicative of the core zone of a substantial mineralised porphyry system.

As an initial follow up, a program of five diamond core drill holes totaling approximately 5,000 metres have been planned to test the mineralisation along strike to the north and south (see attached plan) targeting surface geophysical anomalies, and below KSDD003 to test for depth continuity and potential grade improvements (see attached section). The drill has been mobilised and is expected to be on site early next week.

Results will be advised on a hole by hole basis as they are received.

ABOUT ALKANE ‐ www.alkane.com.auASX: ALK and OTCQX: ANLKY

Alkane is a gold production company with a multi‐commodity exploration and development portfolio. Alkane’s projects are predominantly in the Central West region of NSW, but extend throughout Australia through investments in other gold exploration and mining companies.

Alkane’s gold production is from the Tomingley Gold Operations (TGO) which has been operating since early 2014 and it’s most advanced gold exploration projects are in the 100% Alkane owned tenement area between TGO and Peak Hill and have the potential for sourcing additional ore for TGO.

Alkane has other 100% owned exploration tenements in the Central West NSW prospective for gold and copper. The recently announced significant porphyry gold-copper mineralisation intersected at Boda is an example of this potential.

Alkane’s largest non‐gold project is the Dubbo Project (DP), a large in-ground resource of zirconium, hafnium, niobium, yttrium and rare earth elements. As it is an advanced polymetallic project outside China, it is a potential strategic and independent supply of critical minerals for a range of sustainable technologies and future industries. It has a potential mine life of 75+ years. The DP is development ready, subject to financing, with the mineral deposit and surrounding land acquired and all major State and Federal approvals in place.
