HIGHLIGHTS

  • Exploration potential for gold mineralisation within the existing portfolio identified, presenting immediate opportunities

  • Review of historical exploration at the Mt Maguire project identified extensive gold mineralisation, including high-grade intercepts of 2m @ 12.14g/t Au from 35m as well as broader gold intercepts such as 31m @ 0.84g/t Au from 20m, including 1m @ 6.74g/t Au from 25m

  • Gold mineralisation at Mt Maguire is untested both at depth and along strike highlighting clear opportunities

  • Prospective strike over 8 km of untested shear zones along the same trend as Kalamazoo Resources (ASX: KZR) Ashburton Project which hosts a mineral reserve estimate (JORC 2012) of 16.2Mt @ 2.8g/t for 1.44M oz Au

  • Historical data shows significant upside, highlighting key exploration targets and opportunities within the project area

  • Upcoming fieldwork planned to test targets and confirm mineralisation potential

Askari Metals Limited ( ASX: AS2 ) (“ Askari Metals ” or “ Company ”) is pleased to provide an update on the results of its strategic review for the 100%-owned Mt Maguire gold project based on all available historical exploration data.

The focus of the review was to identify follow up gold exploration targets on the Mt Maguire gold project given the high commodity pricing environment for gold as well as to strengthen the Company’s gold exposure given the recently delineated maiden JORC (2012) Mineral Resource and JORC (2012) Exploration Target at the Burracoppin Gold Project.

The considerable exploration potential for gold mineralisation within the Mt Maguire gold project presents an immediate opportunity.

The Mt Maguire gold project is located approximately 10km south of Paraburdoo and 200km west of Newman in the Pilbara Craton of Western Australia.

The Mt Maguire project is prospective for gold, base metals, and iron ore, with mineralisation generally associated with structurally controlled quartz veins and stringers.

The prospectivity of the area has been highlighted through the discovery of several gold deposits, most notably the Mt Olympus mine (now known as the Ashburton Project, Kalamazoo Resources) which is located 10km along strike to the southeast of Mt Maguire and situated on the greater Nanjilgardy fault system.

Historical drilling has revealed high-grade gold mineralisation that has been largely overlooked for over 20 years.

Several companies have explored the project, with the bulk of the work completed in the late 1980s and again in the early 2000s.

The historic work focused on three main areas, namely the Caffrey’s, Murphy’s, and Guinness prospects and which included the collecting of 1,194 soil samples, 56 rock chip samples, and 101 stream sediment samples. Shallow drilling has also been completed with 3 air-core, 6 reverse circulation, and 98 RAB holes having been completed to date.

Several encouraging intercepts were returned by the drilling, highlighting the potential of the project. The shallow nature of the drilling is also considered positive by the Company as the depth and strike extents of the mineralisation remain untested.

Some encouraging historic drill intercepts are highlighted in table 1 below.

Askari has also purchased the historical geophysical data collected on the project area and is having it processed and interpreted.

These historical data points are crucial in guiding current and future exploration efforts, helping to refine targets and aiding in better understanding the mineralisation within this highly prospective region.

Managing Director Gino D’Anna commented:

“The Mt Maguire project has surprised me with the numerous high-grade gold intercepts at near surface that have been largely untouched since the 1990s. The Ashburton Region of Western Australia is a highly prospective and active mining district with demonstrated prospectivity for high grade gold and base metals discoveries.

With sporadic drill testing and an average drilling depth of only ~40 metres, the Mt Maguire project is essentially unexplored at depth and along strike.

Geological review work by our technical team has identified a number of walk-up drill targets with excellent potential to yield a substantial gold resource. Upon completion of our technical review, we intend to begin field work to test these targets and I look forward to a steady stream of news flow going forward.''

Mt Maguire Gold Project, Ashburton Region, Western Australia

The Mt Maguire Gold Project, located in Western Australia, has been historically explored with extensive gold mineralisation identified in drilling including high-grade intercepts of 2m @ 12.14g/t Au as well as broader mineralised zones including 31m @ 0.84g/t Au from 20m including 1m @ 6.74g/t Au from 25m.

Askari has only carried out limited on-ground exploration activities to date due to tenement access issues, which have recently been resolved.

A total of 450 soil samples were collected by the Company on three prospect areas on the tenement, with the focus being on the Guinness prospect in the South.

This prospect has also been the target of a historical RAB drilling program, which intersected gold mineralisation below a structure visible at the surface. The Company plans to use the soil sample results to determine the mineralisation extent of this structure and to then combine this knowledge with historical data to determine future activities on this prospect.

Two additional prospects to the north of Guinness have been identified through historical anomalous gold values in rock chip samples.

The Company also completed a reconnaissance visit to the Mt Maguire project and collected representative rock samples from all prospective areas. These rock results will be used in conjunction with the soil and historical results to determine the way forward. The Company is also considering a magnetic survey over the main Guinness prospect target.

The Mt Maguire Project is located along strike of Kalamazoo Resources Limited’s (ASX: KZR) Ashburton Project. The Kalamazoo Project has historical production of 350,00oz Au from 1998 until 2004 and contains a mineral reserve estimate (JORC 2012) of 16.2Mt @ 2.8g/t for 1.44M oz Au (refer to Ashburton Gold Project, WA - Kalamazoo Resources (kzr.com.au)) .

Exploration Potential

The Guinness Prospect gold mineralisation is interpreted as being controlled by an east west-striking fault that dips to the north. Post mineralisation faulting has caused the mineralised zone to plunge to west in a series of tilted blocks. The host unit is the Cheela Springs Basalt. In the area of interest, there is a 20-70-metre-wide alteration zone of surface silicification and bleaching. The alteration is so intense the vesicular basalts are only identifiable by their relict amygdales occurring as round silica products in a silty to a very fine sandy matrix. It is assumed the amygdaloidal texture represents the top of the basaltic lava flows.

The eastern and western strike length extensions of the Guinness Prospect remain untested. Sulphides and silification are important to mineralisation but the exact style of mineralisation has not been determined due to a lack of geochemical data and fresh drill cuttings.

The proposed follow up exploration program will involve initial mapping followed by geophysical surveys to test the mineralisation potential along strike. Drilling will depend on the results of this survey.

Future Work

The results of the strategic review will provide the basis for the design for future exploration activities across each of the individual project areas at the Mt Maguire project. The Company looks forward to conducting follow up field work at the Mt Maguire project in tandem with its other exploration programs.

JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1 report template

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Date

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections)

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques

Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. 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.

Sampling was undertaken using
Industry-standard practices
utilising mostly RAB drilling.

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

Given the historical nature of the
drilling, no information is
available about sample
representivity and calibration.

Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are
Material to the Public Report.

The drilling was completed by
composite sampling normally 4m
with resampling to single metres
for anomalous zones.

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.

From the information reviewed, it
appears that drilling and sampling
was conducted using industry-
standard techniques.

Where information was available
in historical reports, samples
were taken from a rig-mounted
cyclone. Composite samples
were generally via a spear
sampled. In general, the target
was for samples weighing
approximately2.5kg.
Drilling
techniques

Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole
hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and
details (e.g. 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).

Most of the drilling was based on
RAB drilling. From the
information reviewed, it appears
that drilling was conducted using
industry-standard techniques.
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/coarse material.

Given the historical nature of the
drilling, no information is
available about sample
recoveries for specific drill
programs

No bias was noted between
sample recovery and grade.
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 quantitative in nature.
Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography.

The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.

Logs for the drill holes were
generally of reasonable quality.

Qualitative logging of lithology,
alteration, mineralisation, regolith
and veining was undertaken at
various intervals.
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. _

Limited data is available for
subsampling techniques.

Sampling appears to have been
carried out using industry-
standard practise.

No QA/QC procedures have
been reviewed on for the
historical sampling.

The sample size is considered
appropriate for the material being
sampled.

Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size
_of the material being sampled. _
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 (e.g.
standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory
checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie
_lack of bias) and precision have been established. _

Where information has been
provided in WAMEX reports, the
analytical techniques appear
appropriate for the stage of
exploration being conducted.

No specific review of QAQC
protocols or analysis has been
completed although it is assumed
that the programs were
conducted using industry-
standard techniques.
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.

No twinned holes were identified
from the data reviewed, although
given the early stage of
exploration this is to be expected.

No adjustments have been made
to original assay data.
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 control.

Most of the drilling was
undertaken using AMG51 grid
and while not reported, it is
believed that hole locations were
measured by hand-held GPS.

No field validation has been
undertaken.

No downhole surveys were
recorded for the drilling.

Topographic control is
considered adequate for the 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.

Drillhole spacing is highly
variable over the project with
sporadic drilling only surrounding
the historical workings.

There has been insufficient
sampling and no significant
results to date to support the
estimation of a resource. It is
unknown if additional exploration
will result in the definition of a
Mineral Resource.

Assays have been composited
into significantintersections.
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.

Holes were angled perpendicular
to the strike of the geology as
known at the time of drilling.

No orientation-based sampling
bias is known at this time.
Sample
security

The measures taken to ensure sample security.

Details of measures taken for the
chain of custody of samples is
unknown for the previous
explorers'activities.
Audits or
reviews

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

No Audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data have been
undertaken.

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 hole collar locations and
significant drill results have
been included in this report

No relevant material data has
been excluded from this report.
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.

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 clearly stated. _

Significant intersections (>0.5g/t
Au) have been calculated with
no edge dilution and a minimum
of 1m downhole length.

No top cuts have been applied.

No metal equivalent values are
reported
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
_(e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not known’). _

Only downhole lengths are
reported.

The exact geometry of the
mineralisation is not known as
such true width is not known.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
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 plans are included
in this report.
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.

Significant exploration drill
results are included in this
report.
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.

To date, only exploration drilling
and geophysical surveys (and
associated activities) have been
undertaken on the project. No
other modifying factors have
been investigated at this stage.
Further work
The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. 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
_commercially sensitive. _

Further work will include
systematic exploration drilling.

Appropriate plans are included
in this announcement.
