High Grade Gold Assays from the Korongou Project

  • High grade gold assays obtained from rock chip sampling across two prospect areas in the southern portion of the Korongou Project

  • Significant new results include: 8.9 g/t gold, 8.3 g/t gold and 6.4 g/t gold

  • Multiple new gold mineralised structures discovered within a 1.2km to 2km wide corridor

  • New gold mineralised structures discovered over a strike length of more than 7.5km

  • A new disseminated-style of high grade gold mineralisation hosted in volcaniclastic rocks located at the Big Veins Prospect

  • The major gold mineralised corridor at Korongou has now been confirmed over 16km

Golden Rim Resources Ltd ( Golden Rim ; ASX: GMR) today announced that ongoing mapping and rock chip sampling across the southern portion of the Korongou Project has delineated multiple new gold mineralised structures in two areas, the Big Veins Prospect and the Namagdo Prospect, that extend over a strike length of 7.5km.

A total of 63 rock chip samples have been collected across Korongou since January 2014. Assay results are listed in Table 1. Samples have been taken from in situ outcrop and artisanal workings.

Big Veins Prospect

The gold mineralisation at Big Veins is exposed in multiple structures within a 1.2km wide corridor and over 4.2km of strike.

The most significant mineralisation is hosted in at least two parallel structures, with sheared and interbedded iron-rich volcaniclastics and graphitic schists that are in contact with intermediate volcanics (andesite). The structures are locally intruded by albite-rich dykes and stocks.

Gold is hosted in the iron-rich volcaniclastic rock bands which have been subjected to silica +/carbonate alteration. It is probable that the iron in the volcaniclastics is related to disseminated pyrite. The two parallel gold mineralised zones are at least 10m wide and lie 150m to 200m apart. The mineralisation strikes between 050 and 060 degrees and is open to the SW and open to the NE where it extends beneath lateritic cover.

The most prominent and central zone of mineralisation at Big Veins extends for 1.6km and has been subject to more intensive artisanal mining.

Previous reconnaissance rock chip sampling from Big Veins returned significant results, including 22.3 g/t, 9.7 g/t and 4.5g/t gold in the central target.

Golden Rim Resources Ltd I ABN 39 006 710 774 I Level 2, 10 Outram Street, West Perth WA 6005, Australia I PO Box 378, West Perth WA 6872, Australia www.goldenrim.com.au I [email protected] I T + 61 8 9481 5758 I F + 61 8 9481 5759

==> picture [595 x 85] intentionally omitted <==

New rock chip samples at Big Veins have returned results up to 5.3 g/t, 4.5 g/t and 4.3 g/t gold.

No drilling has ever been conducted at Big Veins. A follow up reverse circulation (RC) drilling program is currently planned by Golden Rim. Initially drilling will be focused on testing the mineralisation outlined in the 1.6km central zone.

The style of the gold mineralisation at Big Veins is unusual for Burkina Faso, where gold is usually associated with quartz veining. Golden Rim believes the mineralisation at Big Veins may be similar to some of the gold mineralisation discovered in the region surrounding the historic, high grade Poura Mine (1.5Moz), in Burkina Faso, which closed in 1999. Newmont Mining Corporation secured the mine in 2012 and are expecting to re-open the operation. At the Larafella Prospect, near Poura, gold has been discovered within lenses of albitite (5-8m thick) that are interbedded with metasediments and metavolcanics.

Namagdo Prospect

Gold mineralisation at Namagdo lies along strike to the NE of Big Veins and has been confirmed for over 3.3km of strike.

Active and inactive artisanal diggings have exposed mineralisation over most of this strike length.

The gold mineralisation is hosted in multiple structures within a 2km wide corridor. The gold is associated with quartz veining and with siliceous-carbonate-hematite-pyrite-rich sheared andesite.

Previous reconnaissance rock chip sampling from Namagdo returned significant results, including 108 g/t, 18.9 g/t, 16.9 g/t, 9.6 g/t and 7.8 g/t gold.

New rock chip samples at Namagdo have returned results including 8.9 g/t, 8.3 g/t, 6.4 g/t and 5.8 g/t gold .

Most of the Namadgo Prospect remains untested by drilling. Two scout RC holes were previously drilled by Golden Rim at the northern margin of Namagdo. Multiple zones of gold mineralisation were intersected in hole NKRC04 which returned 5m at 1.8 g/t (66m-71m) and 11m at 3.6 g/t gold (77m–88m). A significant drilling program is planned for Namagdo to follow up the intercepts in NKRC04 and to test the mineralisation outlined over the strike length of 3.3km.

Golden Rim’s Managing Director, Craig Mackay, said “The recent mapping and rock chip sampling conducted in the southern portion of Korongou has confirmed that a broad gold mineralised corridor with multiple gold mineralised structures extends for at least 16km.”

“Korongou had been locked up by the previous owner over the past decade for small scale mining and very little exploration work has been conducted. We believe it is one of the largest and most prospective areas of gold mineralisation in Burkina Faso that has not yet been subject to a modern and systematic exploration campaign.”

“Many drilling targets have been identified and we remain confident that with additional drilling Korongou has the potential to quickly deliver Golden Rim a major gold resource,” Mr Mackay said.

Appendix 1: JORC Code, 2012 edition, Assessment and Reporting Criteria

Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data

Criteria JORC Code Explanation Explanation
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.

Include reference to measures taken to
ensure sample representivity and the
appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.

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.

Rock chip samples are random (grab)
samples taken of quartz vein material in
surface outcrop or in shallow artisanal
mine workings carried out as part of a
geological mapping exercise in areas of
geological interest. Sample size is
nominally 2 to 3 kilograms.

Samples were all collected by qualified
geologists or under geological
supervision. The sampling was part of
an early stage exploration programme
aimed at locating gold mineralisation
and no claim is made as to the
representivity of each sample.

Location of each sample was recorded
by hand held GPS with positional
accuracy of approximately +/- 5 metres.

All rock chip samples were submitted to
Bigs Laboratory in Ouagadougou for
preparation and analysis by 50g Fire
Assay (LDL 0.005 ppm gold).
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).

No drilling was undertaken
Drill sample
recovery

Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries and
results assessed.

Measures taken to maximise sample
recovery and ensure representative
nature of the samples.

Whether a relationship exists between
sample recovery and grade and
whether sample bias may have
occurred due to preferential loss/gain of
fine/coarsematerial.

No drilling was undertaken
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.

Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitativein nature.Core (orcostean,

Each sample was briefly described
geologically by the geologist involved
(using a standardised logging system).

as semi-quantative.
Sub-sampling
techniques and
sample
preparation

If core, whether cut or sawn and
whether quarter, half or all core taken.

If non-core, whether riffled, tube
sampled, rotary split, etc and whether
sampled wet or dry.

For all sample types, the nature, quality
and appropriateness of the sample
preparation technique.

Quality control procedures adopted for
all sub-sampling stages to maximise
representivity of samples.

Measures taken to ensure that the
sampling is representative of the in situ
material collected, including for
instance results for field
duplicate/second-half sampling.

Whether sample sizes are appropriate
to the grain size of the material being
sampled.

Samples were transported by road to
Bigs Laboratory in Ouagadougou.

At the laboratory all samples were
weighed, dried and crush to -2mm in a
jaw crusher. A split of the crushed
sample was subsequently pulverised in
a ping mill to achieve a nominal particle
size of 85% passing 75um.

Sample sizes and laboratory
preparation techniques are considered
to be appropriate for early stage gold
exploration.
Quality of assay
data and
laboratory tests

The nature, quality and
appropriateness of the assaying and
laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered
partial or total.

For geophysical tools, spectrometers,
handheld XRF instruments, etc, the
parameters used in determining the
analysis including instrument make and
model, reading times, calibrations
factors applied and their derivation, etc.

Nature of quality control procedures
adopted (eg standards, blanks,
duplicates, external laboratory checks)
and whether acceptable levels of
accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision
have been established.

Rock chip samples are analysed for
gold at Bigs Laboratory by 50g Fire
Assay with AAS finish to a lower
detection limit of 0.005 ppm gold. Fire
assay is considered a total assay
technique.

Internal laboratory QAQC checks are
reported by the laboratory.

Review of the internal laboratory QAQC
suggests the laboratory is performing
within acceptable limits.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying

The verification of significant
intersections by either independent or
alternative company personnel.

The use of twinned holes.

Documentation of primary data, data
entry procedures, data verification, data
storage (physical and electronic)
protocols.

Discuss any adjustment to assay data.

Sample data is compiled and digitally
captured by Golden Rim geologists.

The compiled digital data is verified and
validated by the Company’s database
geologist.

Reported results are compiled by the
Company’s Senior Geologist and the
Managing Director.

There were no adjustments to the
assaydata.
Location of data
points

Accuracy and quality of surveys used
to locate drill holes (collar and down-
hole surveys), trenches, mine workings
and other locations used in Mineral
Resource estimation.

Specification of the grid system used.

Quality and adequacy of topographic

Sample locations were taken at the
time of sampling, using a hand held
GPS, with horizontal accuracy of
approx. 5m.

Location data was collected in UTM
grid WGS84, zone 30 north and zone
31north.

control.
Locational accuracy is considered
appropriate for this early stage of
exploration.
Data spacing
and distribution

Data spacing for reporting of
Exploration Results.

Whether the data spacing and
distribution is sufficient to establish the
degree of geological and grade
continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve estimation
procedure(s) and classifications
applied.

Whether sample compositing has been
applied.

Each rock chip sample is composed of
10 to 20 randomly selected fragments.

The sampling may not be unbiased.
Orientation of
data in relation
to geological
structure

Whether the orientation of sampling
achieves unbiased sampling of
possible structures and the extent to
which this is known, considering the
deposit type.

If the relationship between the drilling
orientation and the orientation of key
mineralised structures is considered to
have introduced a sampling bias, this
should be assessed and reported if
material.

Exploration is at an early stage and the
true orientation of mineralisation has
not been confirmed at this stage.
Sample security
The measures taken to ensure sample
security.

Samples are stored on site prior to road
transport by Company personnel to the
laboratory in Ouagadougou, Burkina
Faso.
Audits or
reviews

The results of any audits or reviews of
sampling techniques and data.

There has been no external audit or
review of the Company’s techniques or

results including a tabulation of the
following information for all Material drill
holes:
o
easting and northing of the drill
hole
collar
elevation
or
RL
(Reduced
Level

elevation
above sea level in metres) of the
drill hole collar
o
dip and azimuth of the hole
o
down
hole
length
and
interception depth
o
hole length.

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
clearlyexplain whythis is the case.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Explanation
methods truncations (eg cutting of high grades)
and cut-off grades are usually Material
and should be stated.

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.

The assumptions used for any reporting
of metal equivalent values should be
clearlystated.
data reported.

Assay results are generally quoted
rounded to 1 decimal place.

No new drill hole intersections are
not reported in this announcement.

Metal equivalent values are not
reported in this announcement.
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’).

The reported results are from early
stage reconnaissance rock chip
sampling

No new drill hole intersections are
not reported in this announcement..
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.

Maps are provided in the main text.
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.

All sample results are presented in
the table in the main text.
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.

There is no other exploration data
which is considered material to the
results
reported
in
the
announcement.
Further work
The nature and scale of planned further
work (eg tests for lateral extensions or
depth extensions or large-scale step-out
drilling).

Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of
possible extensions, including the main
geological
interpretations
and
future
drilling areas, provided this information is
not commerciallysensitive.

RC drilling is planned to follow up
the
results
reported
in
this
announcement.
