ASX/Media Announcement
14[th] September 2009
New RC Drilling commences for Gem Prospect, Cloncurry North Project, NW Queensland
China Yunnan Copper Australia Limited (ASX: CYU) continues to explore at its Gem Prospect located within the Cloncurry North Project in Queensland.
Since reverse circulation (RC) and diamond drilling (DD) was completed in July 2009, CYU has been analysing the information and undertaking 1:2,500 prospect scale geological mapping over the prospect. Following the success and information generated from previous drilling campaigns ( including 38m @ 1.25% copper and 0.20 g/t gold from 33 m, GR003 ), CYU has commenced a 5 hole, 650m RC drill programme ( Table 1 ) to extend the strike extent of the northern workings.
Based on previously reported significant intersections from RC holes GR-001 ( 21m @ 0.12% copper and 0.05g/t gold from 55m ) and GR-015 ( 8m @ 0.89% copper and 0.25g/t gold from 183m ) this programme is designed to delineate the strike extent and geometry of the zone of mineralisation of these northern workings.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

*** Easting and Northing UTM MGA Zone 54 – GDA94.**
Mineralisation remains open under cover which necessitated an orientation timedomain electromagnetic (TEM) ground geophysical survey completed in late July 2009. The survey comprised two lines of 500m length using a 100m moving loop configuration. Results from this survey, returned two moderate anomalies. A larger scale 1.2km by 700m TEM ground geophysical survey utilising a fixed loop configuration on 100m line spacing and 50m stations has been contracted to be undertaken in early to mid October 2009. It is believed that the use of a fixed loop configuration can overcome the surficial cover masking effect.
Results from the survey, in conjunction with all drilling results will assist in planning a more definitive extensional drilling programme leading to a maiden resource in 2010 at Gem.
