Dear Elizabeth

Revision to ASX Release dated 25 June 2019 - Visible cassiterite confirms second major tin target at Kikagati, Uganda

Carnavale Resources Limited (“the Company”) has prepared an updated ASX announcement which addresses queries raised by ASX with respect to disclosure of exploration results.

The Company would like to retract statements made with respect to the Kikagati project to be “potentially amenable to open pit mining methods and simple processing” as insufficient work has been completed to determine. The Company also notes that in the attached ASX release it has added an estimate of the visible cassiterite to be < 1% in each sample by volume.

Yours sincerely

ASX Release 28 June 2019

==> picture [86 x 57] intentionally omitted <==

Visible cassiterite confirms second major tin target at Kikagati, Uganda

Carnavale Resources Limited (ASX: CAV) is pleased to advise that first ever drilling and trenching at the Hippo Hill prospect has confirmed the presence of visible cassiterite (tin-bearing mineral, visually estimated to be <1% in each sample by volume). Hippo Hill is located approximately 2km west of the main Kikagati Tin Deposit (Figure 1) and is the second large scale tin prospect defined at the Kikagati Tin Project in Uganda.

The two large scale tin prospects defined to date demonstrate the prospective nature of the project and provide an excellent opportunity to define large tin resources.

  • Second tin target with dimensions 1.5km long x 150m wide

  • Visible cassiterite (tin mineral) observed at surface and in drilling

Kikagati and Hippo Hill - large scale open pit resource targets

Hippo Hill is a 1.5km long east west trending target with an interpreted 150m wide prospective corridor defined by quartz vein stockwork of variable density and associated mica rich alteration. The nuggetty cassiterite is observed as crystals up to 20mm long (Figure 2), occurring along the margins of the quartz veins in both drilling and in the surface trenching (Figure 4). Historic artisanal workings and shafts occur sporadically along the 1.5km strike length.

The recent exploration activities have focussed on Hippo Hill with 3 diamond drill holes completed for a total of 388.5m, limited short trenching adjacent to the drilling section and soil sampling along the 1.5km target. The drilling targeted outcropping quartz veins with mica alteration that has been mined by the local artisanal miners. The trenches were established upon identification of the visible cassiterite in drill hole KHHDD002 at 60m and 97m depth. Mapping of the trench has identified further finer grained cassiterite crystals in the selvage of thin quartz veins and in the weathered colluvium just above bedrock. All assays results remain pending with results expected during the September 2019 quarter.

  • 3 HQ diamond drill core holes completed.

  • 1.5km x 400m soil sampling survey undertaken.

  • Cassiterite (to 20mm) observed in hole KHHDD002 at 60m and 97m.

Cassiterite (to 10mm) observed along vein selvages in trench HHT001.

Subvertical vein stockwork from surface.

Cassiterite has been observed in quartz-mica veins as well as along the contact between individual quartz veins and the surrounding schist host rock. The stockwork is defined by a series of subvertical larger veins, historically targeted by artisanal miners through to bedding-parallel, sub-vertical and oblique less sized veins and associated mica alteration. Figure 3 is a cross section showing the drilling locations and the interpreted zone of sub-vertical stockwork trend. Bedding defined by thin quartzite units within the schist dips to the north and the dominant foliation fabric and vein orientation is subvertical.

Overall the Hippo Hill is considered prospective due to the large target dimension (1.5km x 150m) and visible cassiterite observed within a quartz vein stockwork.

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(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.

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.

Diamond core sampling to be completed and
samples submitted to the independent
laboratory.

All drilling and sampling undertaken in an
industry standard manner.

All
core
is
geologically
logged
and
photographed, HQ drill core is cut in half,
with one half sent to the laboratory for assay
and the other half retained on site.

Holes
are
sampled
over
potentially
mineralised intervals on a nominal 1m basis
and down to 0.1m geological boundaries.

Samples are sent to an independent
laboratory with the entire sample pulverised
and a sub-sample analysed.
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.).

The diamond drill holes comprised HQ sized
core.
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.

Core recovery is measured for each drilling
run by the driller and then checked by the
Company geological team during the mark
up and logging process.

Samples have been marked out and are
considered representative with generally 95-
100% recovery.
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.

The entire holes were geologically and
geotechnically logged and photographed by
consultant
geologists,
with
systematic
sampling to be undertaken on the prospective
parts of the stratigraphy based on rock type
and alteration observed.

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

The security of the tenure held at the time
of reporting along with any known
impediments to obtaining a license to
operate in the area.

Hippo Hill drilling is on EL1380 which are in
the Isingiro District in South-West Uganda.

The licences are 100% owned by African
Panther Resources (U) Limited (APRU)

Carnavale has earned the right to 51% of
the project by drilling 2,000m of diamond
core, with the continuing right to earn up to
70% by sole funding to completion of a
Bankable Feasibility Study.
Exploration done by
other parties

Acknowledgment and appraisal of
exploration by other parties.

APRU have completed several pitting
programmes to test the colluvial gravels at
the nearby Kikagati Hill .

No known hard-rock drilling has been
undertaken on any of the licences prior to
Carnavale involvement.
Geology
Deposit type, geological setting and style
of mineralisation.

At the Hippo Hill Prospect, the geology is
composed of a mica schist with thin
interbeds of quartzite. The sequence has
been folded regionally and is north dipping
at the drill target. Mineralisation targeted is
within a subvertical stockwork of quartz
veins and associated alteration. The target
alteration zone is estimated to be 150m
wide and potential to extend for 1.5km.
Drill hole Information

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
clearly explain why this is the case.
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.

Sample results remain pending
Relationship
between mineralisa-
tion 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’). _

Drilling may not be perpendicular to the dip of
mineralisation and true widths will be assess
when results are received and assessed.
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.

Representative plans and sections are
provided 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.

The report is considered balanced and
provided in context.

Further drilling, mapping, sampling and other
exploration activities will be required to fully
understand the deposit in greater detail.
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.

No meaningful previous or recent work is
known to have been completed on the
prospect area.

Artisanal workings are estimated to be
approximately
30m
depth
and
occur
sporadically along the 1.5km strike length.
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). _

The Company plans to finalise the next phase
of exploration activities once results from the
current drilling, trench and soil samples
assays are received.
