ASX Release 24 Jan 2024
Copper Wolf Project: Intense Porphyry Style Veining at Sun Devil on 100% BUX Ground, Tenure Expansion & Wolverine Drill Permitting
-
Intense porphyry related veining found at Sun Devil Prospect (100% BUX)
-
No previous drilling has been undertaken at Sun Devil
-
Helicopter-supported reconnaissance commencing 25th Jan
-
Additional 126 Claims staked & new Mineral Exploration Permit secured
-
Site visit with BLM permitting team paves the way for drilling at Wolverine
Buxton Resources Ltd (ASX:BUX) is pleased to report on progress from the Copper Wolf Project in Arizona, USA.
Ongoing geological mapping and reconnaissance sampling has commenced in the western part of the Project at the Sun Devil Prospect, where historical exploration reports described porphyry style mineralisation at surface. In this area, Buxton's geologists have encountered intense porphyry style veining along with evidence of copper mineralisation - see outcrop photographs Figures 1-3, and Figure 4 for location.
During early January 2024, BUX has staked an additional 126 federal Lode Mining Claims (CW-216 through CW-342) and received approval for state Mineral Exploration Permit 008-124640 which collectively extend the area of BUX’s tenure to ~41.2 km[2] . The extents of all Project tenure (IGO earning 70% + BUX 100%) including the newly claimed tenure is shown on Figure 4.
CEO Marty Moloney commented “ Buxton's ongoing geological reconnaissance continues to drive our expanding tenure footprint which in turn emphasises our growing confidence that the Copper Wolf Project is host to an enormous hydrothermal system and is a globally significant copper / molybdenum exploration play.
We'll be expanding our geological mapping and surface sampling efforts along with preparations to drill at Wolverine in anticipation of receiving permits mid-February."

Figure 1: Sun Devil Prospect; blue-green secondary copper minerals, likely a complex mixture of chrysocolla, malachite & turquoise, coat a fracture which exposes a vein stockwork that overprints a pre-mineral brecciated meta-granitoid. Boxworks (vugs) and dark spots containing iron & manganese oxides are likely remnants of disseminated primary sulphides which have been leached by intense oxidation / weathering.
Cautionary Statement: Because the copper mineralisation shown above is fracture controlled and the sample is highly oxidised, visual estimation of the relative abundance of individual minerals is extremely unreliable and therefore not reported. In short - copper and molybdenum grades can and should not be estimated from this type of material. The description of this sample also provides no information regarding potential impurities or deleterious physical properties relevant to valuations. Laboratory assay results are required to determine the elemental grade of this material. The Company will update the market when laboratory analytical results become available.
The Sun Devil prospect is located approximately ~5 kilometres west-southwest of drillhole CPW0002DD which intersected high grade porphyry Cu-Mo mineralisation under ~528 m of post mineralisation cover (see ASX Announcement 14/12/2023).
No drilling has been recorded or is evident at Sun Devil, although wide-spaced historical drilling was conducted by Utah Corp and Phelp Dodge in the 1960s-1970s to the north around the Aztecs Prospect and to the east at Mountaineer.

Lebon's report included a petrologic analysis for sample SM-12 (0.52% Cu, 93 ppm Mo) that described relatively strong alteration overprinting a quartz monzonite interpreted to belong to the Proterozoic Bradshaw Igneous Complex.
Much of the igneous plagioclase sample SM-12 had been replaced by orthoclase and sericite (together representing potassic alteration) as part of the Laramide hydrothermal alteration event. Biotite, potentially hydrothermal in origin, had been bleached and replaced by white mica.
Weathering caused all pyrite to be oxidized and leached, with accompanying kaolinite development.

Buxton recently announced discovery of an outcropping porphyry Cu-Mo system on 100% owned tenure (not subject to the IGO JV) at the Wolverine Prospect, some 7 kilometres to the north-northeast of Sun Devil. Buxton's rock chip sampling at Wolverine returned laboratory assay results up to 14.1% Cu and 1,160 ppm Mo (separate samples, see ASX Announcement 11/01/2024).
The alteration assemblages and vein styles at Sun Devil and Wolverine are visually similar and include a) intense, multi-phase vein stockworks, b) potassic alteration and c) highly anomalous copper and molybdenum. These features define a ~7 km trend between Sun Devil and Wolverine across which the Copper Wolf hydrothermal system has evidently developed. The Project therefore represents a globally significant exploration opportunity for economic porphyry Cu-Mo style mineralisation.

These areas include substantial basement exposures indicating potential for copper porphyry mineralisation at shallower depths in comparison to the Bobcat, Rattler and Coyote prospects. The BUX / IGO JV covers ~11.0 km[2] and includes the supergene blanket which has been the focus of previous exploration including historical resource estimates by Liontown and others.

A site visit by Buxton and Bureau of Land Management personnel has been undertaken in response to Buxton's Notice requesting permission to drill at the Wolverine Prospect. The BLM permitting team did not note any material concerns whilst onsite. Permits are expected now take no longer than three weeks to be issued.
The Wolverine drilling program is intended to provide fresh samples of Laramide porphyry intrusive rocks, to confirm the potential for enriched and primary sulphide zones at depth, and to assist with exploration targeting including planning and interpretation of subsequent surface and airborne geophysical surveys.

About the Copper Wolf Project
The Copper Wolf Project has multiple historical resource estimates available that confirm the presence of a large porphyry Cu-Mo system. Porphyry Cu-Mo mineralisation at Copper Wolf has been dated at 70.3 Ma (Laramide age) and is largely concealed by a post-mineral (Tertiary) sequence of volcanic and sedimentary rocks.
The Project is located within one of the most prolifically endowed copper belts in the world (Figure 5), yet it has not seen any drilling since the early 1990s. Buxton’s 2022 airborne magnetic survey was the first geophysical work undertaken since the early 1960s. Historic exploration has consisted of relatively wide spaced drilling which focussed on significant supergene copper mineralisation located where the NW trending Cow Creek Fault intersects Laramide hypogene porphyry style mineralisation. Buxton is targeting high grade, underground bulk mineable copper-molybdenum mineralisation. In this context, Buxton’s exploration approach can leverage the significant advances and ready availability of modern geophysical targeting tools and mineral systems knowledge that have been developed since exploration in this area ceased many decades ago.

| 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. _ |
The historic exploration sampling data presented herein (re-reported from Ullmer, E. 2006. Sheep Mountain Property, Yavapai County, Arizona NI 43- 101 Technical Report for Lebon Gold Mines Ltd & MinQuest Ltd (available on SEDAR) are from major, reputable mining companies including Phelps Dodge Mining Company, Utah International Corp (merged with General Electric Corp. in 1976) and Cyprus Metals Company. These companies are regarded to have had sampling methods and analytical techniques for copper and molybdenum which are generally compatible with modern standards. The historical analytical data is supported by comparative mineralisation in Buxton drillholes CPW0001DD and CPW0002DD, sampled to JORC 2012 standards, and recently completed at the Bobcat Prospect, some 5 km to the east. |
| 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 (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. |
||
| 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). |

| Mineral tenement and land tenure status |
Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material issues with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests, historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings. |
Prior to this Announcement, BUX’s tenure included a 100% interest in ~27.8 km2of tenure consisting of Federal Lode Mining Claims SM1-SM54 and CW01- CW215 issued by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) covering 19.5 km2and Arizona State Lands Department (ASLD) Mineral Exploration Permits 008- 121028 and 1213390 covering 5.1 km2, and 008- 124215 covering 2.5 km2. During January 2024, BUX staked an additional 126 Lode Mining Claims (CW216-CW342) and received approval for ASLD Permit 008-124640 which collectively extend the area of BUX’s 100% tenure to ~41.2 km2(these extents are shown on Figure 4). On the 4th of October 2022, Buxton satisfied all conditions precedent for Buxton and IGO to enter into an earn-in and joint venture agreement for the Copper Wolf Project (Arizona, USA) then held as 100% by BUX. By that agreement, IGO has an exclusive right to earn a 51% interest in the initial Copper Wolf Project tenements (SM1-SM54, CW01-CW44, 008- 121028 and 008-1213390, covering approximately 11.0 km2) by incurring and sole funding A$350,000 of exploration expenditure in a 24-month period from 4/10/2022. Upon IGO incurring the A$350,000 earn- in expenditure, it may elect to earn-in and form a 51% IGO / 49% BUX unincorporated joint venture. During the earn-in period, BUX will be the project manager. IGO will be the initial manager of the joint venture. Within 6 months of the commencement of the joint venture, IGO has the exclusive right to elect to earn a further 19% joint venture interest (to take its joint venture interest to 70%) by sole funding exploration expenditure of A$5,000,000 over 3years(stage 2 |

| earn-in). For a 5 year period from the date of the agreement, BUX are committed to present all copper projects it secures or generates in Arizona to IGO by way of a right of first refusal. On the 10thNovember 2023, Buxton entered into a “Copper Chief Lease and Option Agreement” with the private owner of 7 Lode Mining Claims (Copper Chief #1-5 & Copper Chief #18-19) covering approximately 58 hectares and a parcel of private property covering approximately 16 hectares which is wholly contained within the area of the Copper Chief Lode Mining Claims (see Figure 4). This package of surface and subsurface rights is contiguous with existing BUX tenure. The agreement provides BUX the option to acquire 100% of the surface and subsurface rights at any time prior to 10th November 2028. Should BUX chose to exercise the option, BUX will grant the seller a five percent (5%) Net Smelter Returns Royalty, with rights to purchase up to 3.5% of that Royalty. There is a long history of exploration and mining in the project area, so it is considered likely requisite permits will be obtained as and when they are required. The Copper Wolf project does not intersect or lie adjacent to areas with native title interests, historical cultural sites, wilderness or national park and otherwise sensitive environmental settings. |
