➢ Drilling is now completed on the nominal 50m x 50m grid spacing over the Kaiser Inferred Resource containing 2.1Moz gold and 0.5Mt copper. The final round of assay results from the Kaiser drilling is expected to be announced in March. An updated MRE to include an Indicated category for Kaiser is anticipated for release in March/April 2024.**
-
➢ The updated Kaiser resource will add to the recently updated Boda MRE of 10.9Moz @ 0.58g/t AuEq and be used in a scoping study for potential development.*
-
➢ One high-capacity RC drilling rig is operating testing regional targets. A diamond core rig, targeting deep high-grading mineralisation identified at Boda 2-3, is planned to commence operation towards the end of February.
Alkane Resources Limited ( ASX: ALK ) is pleased to announce further results from its drilling program at the Company’s Northern Molong Porphyry Project in Central New South Wales. The current program extends over three kilometres from Kaiser, to Boda, and down to Boda 2-3. The Company believes this system has the potential to be a large, tier one gold-copper project.
Alkane also operates the nearby Tomingley Gold Operations (‘Tomingley’).
Alkane Managing Director, Nic Earner, said:
“The shallow infill drilling at Kaiser has been completed, showing higher grades from surface in these latest results as well as strong continuity of mineralisation at depth. Both the near surface grades and continuity at depth are encouraging as we look to update the Kaiser mineral resource estimate.
“We expect to have the final results available to announce in March and the updated resource completed in March/April. The updated Kaiser resource estimate and the recently released Boda resource update will then be combined in a scoping study to demonstrate the size and scale of these deposits as well as their potential economic value.
“The intensive exploration programs at Boda and Kaiser conducted over the last two years is now ending, which will significantly reduce the rate of exploration spend. However, our regional exploration program continues throughout the broader Northern Molong Porphyry Project, testing many of the targets previously identified.
The equivalent calculation formula is AuEq(g/t) = Au(g/t) + Cu%/10031.1035*copper price($/t)/gold price($/oz). The prices used were 12-month averages of US$1,950/oz gold and US$8,600/t copper, and A$:US$0.67. Recoveries are estimated Cu at 81% and gold for 71% from metallurgical studies at Kaiser. Alkane considers the elements included in the metal equivalents calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.

Northern Molong Porphyry Project (NMPP) Alkane Resources Ltd 100%
The Project is located in the Central West of NSW at the northern end of the Molong Volcanic Belt of the Macquarie Arc. It is considered highly prospective for large scale porphyry and epithermal gold-copper deposits.
Exploration in the NMPP has identified six discrete magnetic/intrusive complexes – Kaiser, Boda, Boda South, Comobella, Driell Creek and Finns Crossing – within a 15km northwest trending corridor. The corridor is defined by intermediate intrusives, lavas and breccias, extensive alteration and widespread, low-grade, gold-copper mineralisation. Two significant gold-copper resources have been defined within the corridor at Boda and Kaiser (ASX Announcements 14 December 2023 and 27 February 2023). Drilling continues to improve the confidence of the Boda and Kaiser deposits and test mineralised zones outside their resource envelopes.

Alkane Resources Ltd – Northern Molong Porphyry Kaiser Drilling – 12 February 2024

Kaiser Deposit
The Kaiser deposit, centred about 1km northwest of Boda, comprises a thick sequence of basaltic to andesitic volcanics and volcaniclastics that have been intruded by a series of dykes and stocks of mafic to intermediate composition. Porphyry gold-copper mineralisation is centred on the magnetic Kaiser Intrusive Complex (KIC). It is associated with northwest trending zones of calc-potassic alteration that host chalcopyrite-bornite ± pyrite as veins and disseminations. Intrusive-hydrothermal breccias driven by a monzonitic magmatic component are responsible for intervals of higher-grade mineralisation of bornite-chalcopyrite ± chalcocite forming as blebs and as breccia cement. The alteration appears more siliceous with a higher component of copper mineralisation, possibly indicating Kaiser was formed at a deeper level in the porphyry system than at Boda. Furthermore, the Solar and Kaiser thrust faults bound the core of the Kaiser system with an estimated 400m or more vertical displacement above the Boda erosion level.
A drilling program of approximately 45,000 metres was designed on a nominal 50m x 50m grid to a 600m vertical depth over a surface area of approximately 1,000m by 600m, to infill the initial Kaiser Inferred Resource Estimate to enable an Indicated Resource calculation. The current resource is estimated at 270Mt grading 0.24g/t Au, 0.18% Cu for a contained 2.1Moz Au and 0.5Mt Cu (see ASX announcement 27 February 2023).
A third round of assay results was received for 41 drill holes (12,047 metres) comprising 13 diamond core tails of RC collared drill holes and 28 RC drill holes. The diamond drilling was completed using HQ3 sized gear coring from the base of RC pre-collars including two previously announced RC drill holes (KAI039 and KAI178, see Table 1).

Testing the shallow components of the Kaiser MRE including the area around the historical Kaiser workings was conducted by RC drilling comprising of 28 holes for 5,656m. A significant component of historical drilling by previous exploration companies around the workings was not included in the Kaiser MRE. This area was tested by this program using modern drilling and assaying techniques, including significant results of:
KAI191 98m grading 0.61g/t AuEq (0.24g/t Au, 0.27% Cu) from 75m incl 13m grading 1.25g/t AuEq (0.62g/t Au, 0.46% Cu) from 160m and 18m grading 0.45g/t AuEq (0.26g/t Au, 0.14% Cu) from 328m to EOH KAI198 41m grading 3.05g/t AuEq (1.39g/t Au, 1.21% Cu) from 1m incl 14m grading 8.05g/t AuEq (3.80g/t Au, 3.09% Cu) from 18m KAI206 62m grading 1.31g/t AuEq (0.47g/t Au, 0.61% Cu) from surface incl 16m grading 2.94g/t AuEq (1.11g/t Au, 1.33% Cu) from 42m KAI207 70m grading 0.85g/t AuEq (0.37g/t Au, 0.35% Cu) from 78m incl 2m grading 4.63g/t AuEq (1.90g/t Au, 1.99% Cu) from 90m also 5m grading 3.70g/t AuEq (1.42g/t Au, 1.66% Cu) from 113m KAI209 110m grading 0.69g/t AuEq (0.41g/t Au, 0.20% Cu) from 13m incl 2m grading 3.46g/t AuEq (2.73g/t Au, 0.53% Cu) from 91m KAI214 27m grading 1.35g/t AuEq (0.40g/t Au, 0.69% Cu) from 82m incl 3m grading 3.65g/t AuEq (1.82g/t Au, 1.33% Cu) from 90m also 4m grading 2.53g/t AuEq (0.28g/t Au, 1.64% Cu) from 100m KAI218 63m grading 0.60g/t AuEq (0.20g/t Au, 0.29% Cu) from 3m incl 1m grading 8.69g/t AuEq (2.05g/t Au, 4.84% Cu) from 39m and 9m grading 0.70g/t AuEq (0.30g/t Au, 0.29% Cu) from 84m
The gold equivalent (AuEq) is calculated using the formula AuEq(g/t) = Au(g/t) + Cu%/100 31.1035 CuPrice($/t)/AuPrice($/oz). The prices used were 12-month averages of gold at US$1950/oz and copper at US$8,600/t, at an exchange rate of A$:US$0.67. Alkane considers the elements included in the metal equivalents calculation to have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold with recoveries estimated for copper at 81% and gold at 71% from metallurgical studies at Kaiser.
NMPP Exploration in 2024
Drilling is now completed over the Kaiser deposit. One high-capacity RC drilling rig is currently operating at the regional targets of Driell Creek and Murga prospects within the NMPP. Both prospects are located within the inferred extensions to the northwest trending Boda-Kaiser structural zone. One high-capacity diamond core drilling rig is expected to mobilise to the NMPP in late-February. The diamond drilling will test deeper beneath previously intersected gold-copper mineralisation at Driell Creek and the deep highgrade mineralisation at Boda 2-3.
The targets undergoing testing with an updated schedule are:

Konigin
Konigin has a strong IP and MT anomaly with one initial RC drill hole (KON001, see ASX announcement 25 October 2022). A diamond drill targeting below KON001 was planned to intersect the strongest part of the chargeability and conductivity high. The target has now been drilled with assay results expected in April 2024.
Driell Creek Intrusive Complex
This complex covers a 6km[2] area within the Boda northwest structural corridor. The complex has numerous magnetic features associated with multi-point and anomalous multi-element soil geochemistry. The Driell Creek prospect is a magnetic low with an IP chargeability high characterising a significant sized phyllic alteration zone interpreted to be a lithocap to a possible fertile intrusive. A previous RC drill hole (COMRC040) targeted the margin of this feature and intersected 120m at 0.10% Cu, 0.10g/t Au from 168m to the end of the hole (see ASX announcement 3 April 2017). RC drilling of approximately 2,000 metres is underway and approximately 500 metres of diamond drilling is planned for late February to test these targets.
Murga
Murga is a possible mineralised skarn with a linear magnetic high within the Boda northwest structural corridor in the Finns Crossing exploration licence (EL8261). Float samples include 6.4g/t Au 7.6% Cu; 3.8g/t Au 0.12% Cu (collected by previous explorer, now publicly available on NSW DiGS website, database reference R00036318 (GS2010/0406)). 1,200m of RC drilling is underway.
Boda 2-3
A ‘causative’ monzodiorite intrusion and associated hydrothermal breccias of 58m grading 1.28g/t Au, 0.74% Cu from 1223m, including 12m grading 3.37g/t Au, 0.98% Cu from 1265m, intersected by drill hole BOD094 (see ASX announcement 25 August 2023) will be further tested. Approximately 2,500 metres of diamond core drilling is planned in March 2024 to delineate the strike and dip of this high-grade zone of mineralisation.
The airborne gravity survey flown over the entire NMPP in November 2023 is being processed and interpreted by Southern Geoscience Consultants with results anticipated in the first half of 2024. The survey will aid in targeting potential new porphyry centres within the project.
An updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Kaiser deposit is programmed after final assay results are received in March, with an anticipated release in March/April 2024. The updated resource will add to the recently updated Boda MRE of 10.9Moz @ 0.58g/t AuEq (see ASX Announcement 14 December 2023) and be used in a scoping study for potential development.

Gold and copper intercepts are calculated using a lower cut of 0.2g/t AuEq. Internal dilution (< cut off) is less than 24% of reported intercepts. Only significant intercepts of >0.3g/t AuEq are reported. True widths are estimated as approximately 50% of intersected width. * The prices used to calculate AuEq are based on 12-month averages of US$1,950/oz gold and US$8,600/t copper, and A$:US$0.67. Metal recoveries at Kaiser are estimated at 81% for Cu and 71% for Au from metallurgical studies. ** Drill hole ended in mineralisation.

The following tables are provided to ensure compliance with the JORC Code (2012) edition requirements for the reporting of exploration results.
JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1 NORTHERN MOLONG PORPHYRY PROJECT – Kaiser – February 2024 Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| 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. |
• Diamond core drilling was undertaken by Ophir Drilling Pty Ltd • DD sample intervals were defined by geologist during logging to honour geological boundaries, cut in half by diamond saw, with half core sent to ALS Laboratories • RC drilling was undertaken by Strike Drilling Pty Ltd • RC samples are collected at one metre intervals via a cyclone on the rig. The cyclone is cleaned regularly to minimise any contamination |
| • Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. |
• Sampling and QAQC procedures are carried out using Alkane protocols as per industry best practice |
|
| • Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘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 (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
• Core was laid out in suitably labelled core trays. A core marker (core block) was placed at the end of each drilled run (nominally 6m) and labelled with the hole number, down hole depth, length of drill run. Core was aligned and measured by tape, comparing back to this down hole depth consistent with industry standards. Half core is sampled with a Corewise automatic core saw. • RC Drilling – the total sample (~35kg) is delivered via cyclone into a large plastic bag which is retained for future use if required. A sub-sample of approximately 1kg is spear sampled from each plastic bag and composited to make a 3 metres sample interval. If mineralisation is observed by the site geologist this is sampled as a final 1m interval instead. The 1m intervals forming composite samples assaying ≥0.10 g/t Au or ≥0.10 % Cu are re-split using a cone splitter on the rig into a separate calico at the time of drilling and re-submitted to the laboratory for re-assay. • Gold was determined by fire assay fusion of a 50g charge with an AAS analytical finish • A multi-element suite was determined using a multi-acid digest with a ICP Atomic Emission Spectrometry or ICP Mass Spectrometry analytical finish. |
|
| Drilling techniques |
• Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc). |
• Reverse circulation (RC) drilling using 110mm rods 144mm face sampling hammer • Triple tube diamond drilling with PQ3/HQ3 wireline bit producing 83mm diameter (PQ3) and 61.1mm diameter (HQ3) sized orientated core. |
| Drill sample recovery |
• Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. |
• DD - core loss was identified by drillers and calculated by geologists when logging. Generally ≥99% was recovered with any loss usually in portions of the oxide zone. • Triple tube coring was used at all times to maximise core recovery with larger diameter |

||
| • Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. |
• Sample quality is qualitatively logged • Core drilling completed using HQ triple tube where possible to maximise core recovery. • A high capacity RC rig was used to enable dry samples collected.

|
| Logging | • Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. |
• Each one metre interval is geologically logged for characteristics such as lithology, weathering, alteration (type, character and intensity), veining (type, character and intensity) and mineralisation (type, character and volume percentage) |
| • Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography |
• Mostly logging was qualitative with visual estimates of the various characteristics. In addition, magnetic susceptibility data (quantitative) was collected as an aid for logging • All drill holes were geologically logged into Geobank Mobile, followed by validation before importing into Alkane’s central Geobank database • All drill holes were logged by qualified and experienced geologists |
|
| • The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged |

|
| Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation |
• If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. |
• Core sawn with half core samples submitted for analysis |
| • If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. |
• Each one metre interval is spear sampled with 3m composite samples collected in a calico sample bag and forwarded to the laboratory. Where mineralisation is observed by the site geologist, instead of compositing, this is individually sampled from the cone splitter on the RC rig as a 1 metre interval into a calico bag and forwarded to the laboratory. • The 1m intervals forming composite samples assaying ≥0.10 g/t Au or ≥0.10 % Cu are resplit using a cone splitter on the rig during the time of drilling and re-submitted to the laboratory for re-assay. • Laboratory Preparation – the entire sample (~3kg) is dried and pulverised in an LM5 (or equivalent) to ≥85%passing 75µm. Bulk rejects for all samples are discarded. A |

| Exploration done by other parties |
• Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. |
• Significant historical drilling activity has been conducted within the bounds of EL4022 (Bodangora), EL6209 (Kaiser) and EL8887 (Boda South). BODA PROSPECT: CRA Exploration/Rio Tinto completed a small IP survey and several reconnaissance RC holes in the Boda Prospect area in 1995. The results identified sporadic, shallow low-grade intervals of gold mineralisation hosted within a sequence of monzonites, diorites and intermediate volcanics. Sampling was performed by collecting spear composites from 3m drill runs, assayed by aqua regia digest and fire assay-AAS and ICP finishes. Amax Mining Inc/Woodsreef Mines grid sampled the residual soil profile and analysed for Cu, Pb and Zn. A coherent +250 ppm Cu soil anomaly was outlined with a strike length of over 1000m and a maximum of 1.25% Cu, in the -80-mesh sieve fraction. Grid based rock chip sampling produced up to 5.4% Cu and 42ppm Au. EL6209 (Kaiser) historical records show 14 AC (170m), 78 RC (7,591m) and 45 DD holes (7,833m) = 15,594m. KAISER PROSPECT: Under-reporting of historical exploration drill results from the Kaiser Prospect is suggested by preliminary metallurgical test work by previous explorers and is supported by a drill hole (KSRC001) completed by Alkane. This can be partly explained by the partial digests and analogue equipment commonly used in the 1970s. EL8887 (Boda South) historical exploration includes the extension of the Amax Mining Inc/Woodsreef Mines grid soil sampling to approximately 300m into EL8887 including the southern section of the +1,000m striking +250 ppm Cu soil anomaly at Boda 2-3. Historical records show 9 RAB holes 16 RAB (124m), 51 shallow RC (859m) and 1 DD holes (503m) = 1,486m |

| • If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case. |
• All drill holes have been reported in this announcement. |
|
| Data aggregation methods |
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. |
• Exploration results reported for uncut gold grades, grades calculated by length weighted average |
| • 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 intercepts are calculated using a broad lower cut of 0.2g/t AuEq, although grades lower than this may be present internally (internal dilution). Internal dilution can be significant because of the type of bulk mining techniques used to extract this style of mineralisation but are limited to <24% for the purpose of calculation. No top cut has been used. Short intervals of high grades that have a material impact on overall intersection are reported as separate (included) intervals. |
|
| • The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
• Gold equivalent values were calculated and used in modelling the mineralisation shells. Metal prices for the gold equivalent are based on a historical 12-month average and were US$1950/oz for gold and US$8600/t for copper, and A$:US$0.67 • Recoveries are estimated at 80% for Cu and 71% for Au from metallurgical studies at Kaiser. |
|
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
• These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |
• It is apparent on the sections and the report descriptions that the overall geometry of the porphyry mineralisation at Kaiser is subvertical to steep west dipping. True intervals are likely to be ~50% of downhole lengths. |
| 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. |
• Plans showing geology with drill collars are included in the body of the announcement. |
| 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 Results. |
• Comprehensive reporting has been undertaken with all holes listed in the included table. |

| Other substantive exploration data |
• Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances. |
• No other exploration data is considered meaningful for reporting. |
| Further work | • The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling). |
• Further work as detailed in the body of the announcement is planned drill targeting Boda 2-3, Murga, Driell Creek and Konigin within the Project. Infill drilling is also ongoing at Kaiser to improve confidence in the resource estimation from Inferred to Indicated. Regional exploration planned are soil geochemistry surveys, airborne gravity and further drilling. |
| • Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive |
• See figures included in the announcement. |
