CARBINE RESOURCES OUTLINE PRIMARY GOLD MINERALISATION OVER MORE THAN 1 KM STRIKE AT NAZALA PROSPECT

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Follow up reverse circulation drilling of gold mineralisation in aircore drilling has identified primary gold mineralisation on seven (7) sections, extending over more than 1 kilometre strike at Nazala Prospect.

  • Best results include:

  • 12m at 1.70g/t gold from 48m (NZRC051)

  • 6m at 8.59g/t gold from 98m (NZRC053)

  • 5m at 1.14g/t gold from 55m and 5m at 4.04g/t gold from 119m (NZRC008)

  • 4m at 1.09g/t gold from 50m (NZRC009)

  • 4m at 1.08g/t gold from 54m (NZRC031)

  • 3m at 1.11g/t gold from 70m (NZRC034)

  • 2m at 6.34g/t gold from 56m and 1m at 9.16g/t gold from 119m (NZRC007)

  • 2m at 8.80g/t gold from 18m (NZRC016)

Carbine Resources Limited (ASX: CRB) is pleased to report gold assay results from almost 7,500m of reverse circulation (RC) drilling conducted in December 2011 and January 2012 at the Nazala prospect (Madougou Permit) at the Ouahigouya Gold Project, Burkina Faso (Figure 2).

Nazala Prospect

Fifty (50) RC drill holes for 7,485m were completed in December 2011 and early January 2012 on the Nazala Prospect at Carbine’s Ouahigouya Gold Project in northwest Burkina Faso (Figure 1 & Appendix 1). Drilling targeted previous gold mineralised intersected in aircore drilling in several sub parallel zones over 1.6km in strike (ASX: 29 August 2011). Mineralised intercepts include:

  • 12m at 1.70g/t gold from 48m (NZRC051);

  • 6m at 8.59g/t gold from 98m (NZRC053); and

  • 5m at 1.14g/t gold from 55m and 5m at 4.04g/t gold from 119m (NZRC008);

  • 4m at 1.09g/t gold from 50m (NZRC009);

  • 4m at 1.08g/t gold from 54m (NZRC031);

  • 3m at 1.11g/t gold from 70m (NZRC034);

  • 3m at 1.11g/t gold from 105m (NZRC055).

  • 2m at 8.80g/t gold from 18m and 1m at 2.37g/t gold from 65m (NZRC016);

  • 2m at 6.34g/t gold from 56m and 1m at 9.16g/t gold from 119m (NZRC007);

  • 2m at 1.68g/t gold from 114m (NZRC026);

  • 2m at 1.59g/t gold from 151m (NZRC033);

  • 2m at 1.65g/t gold from 120m (NZRC050);

Whilst down hole widths of mineralisation are generally not as wide as earlier aircore intercepts, the drilling confirms the presence of primary mineralisation in the fresh rock on seven (7) sections, over a strike length greater than 1 kilometre (Figure 1). Mineralisation is still open for another 500m to the northeast (approaching the Goussirdou Prospect) and 300m to the southwest. More RC drilling is required to define the full extent of gold mineralisation prior to any resource definition drilling on the area. However, Managing Director Peter Sheehan commented, “These results at Nazala combined with primary mineralisation encountered next door at Goussirdou (ASX: 30 April 2012) confirm the potential for this area to host our maiden resource”. More RC drilling will be planned in conjunction with follow up at Goussirdou.

Pending Assay Results

The Company is still awaiting final assay results from the following prospects:-

  • Foufaka aircore drilling (KDAC237-305) – 69 holes for 4,416 meters and 2,405 samples;

  • Kandy infill geochemistry – 786 holes for 10,987m and 786 samples;

  • Goussirdou infill geochemistry – 69 holes for 1,306m and 69 samples;

  • Goussirdou aircore drilling – 79 holes for 4,123m and 2,242 samples; and

  • Nimbo aircore drilling - 39 holes for 1,622m and 876 samples.

The Company is currently experiencing assay turnaround time of in excess of 3 months.

Assay results were obtained from reverse circulation samples, riffle split to provide 2-3kg samples which were crushed and pulverized before a 50g charge was selected for fire assay at BIGGS Laboratory in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. *QAQC: Duplicate samples were taken every 20th sample, triplicates every 40th sample, certified blanks and standards were inserted after every 40th sample.
