High grade tin confirms large scale potential (Tier 1) at Kikagati Project, Uganda

Carnavale Resources (ASX: CAV) is pleased to advise priority assay results from recent diamond drilling confirms high grade tin mineralisation associated with the large stockwork of quartz veins at the Kikagati Tin Project, located in the Isingiro District of southern Uganda.

  • Quartz veins show peak grade to 10% Sn and average 1.2% Sn

  • Large scale target dimensions (Tier 1)

  • Vein density ranging from 14 - 22% by volume

  • Significant open pit potential from surface

Tier 1 Scale Potential

Carnavale’s drilling confirms mineralised quartz veins extend 3,000m along strike and approximately 900m down dip and the host sequence is 100m thick and remains open at depth and along strike. Overall project dimensions provide scope to define a large scale deposit (Tier 1).

Dimensions 3,000m strike length x 900m down dip x 100m thickness

The mineralised quartz veins are hosted in a quartzite unit(s) up to 100m thick with quartz vein densities ranging from 14% to 22% by volume. The dimensions and mineralisation potential are strongly supported by continuous and extensive artisanal workings along the entire 3,000m strike length to an estimated depth of 30m. Tin, in the form of the mineral cassiterite (SnO2) continues to be hand mined from the deposit by artisanal miners.

The large scale and high grade potential ranks favourably against all current producing tin mines around the world and warrants continued evaluation.

Earn-in Rights Extended

Carnavale has been granted a further extension to 30 June, 2019, for CAV to earn an initial 51% equity in African Panther Resources (U) Limited (APRU), the 100% owner of the Kikagati (Isingiro) project tenements (refer to ASX release “Carnavale to Acquire Large-Scale Tin Project, Uganda” 24 April 2018). Under the agreement, Carnavale is required to complete 2,000m of drilling on the project and to date, Carnavale has completed 1,695m of diamond drilling, with 305m remaining to be completed prior to 30 June 2019.

Andy Beckwith, Managing Director commented

“Kikagati is a very rare and large outcropping tin system with substantial open pit potential.

Recent drilling has ticked all the boxes:

1. confirms the high grade nature of mineralisation,

2. frequency of quartz veining and

3. potential scale of the geological target.

Our immediate task is to complete the required drilling programme to earn Carnavale’s 51% equity. Beyond June, the next step will be to complete additional infill drilling to establish an initial inferred resource and assess the potential for bulk open pit mining methods.

Ore sorting of the quartzite from the mineralised tin bearing quartz vein material is also seen as an immediate economic aspect to evaluate.”

Drilling and Results

Diamond drilling, at the Kikagati Tin Project, now totals 10 holes for 1,695m of the planned 2,000m programme (Table 3). The more recent drill holes (KKDD006 - KKDD010) were designed to intersect the maximum number of stacked and mineralised quartz veins hosted within a thick quartzite unit(s) which is approximately 100m thick (Fig 1).

The quartzite unit(s) are bounded by phyllites and extend for 3,000m along a prominent hill. Figure 1 also highlights the distinct dip slope (45° east) of the hill that is potentially conducive to simple open pit mining methods with a low strip ratio due to the geometry and low overburden to the host quartzites.

The tin mineralisation occurs as very coarse grained cassiterite with crystals ranging from 1mm to 60mm in drilling through to 40cm in previous hand-specimens taken from the workings. The mineralisation occurs within a stockwork of stacked “ladder style” quartz veins and is associated with intense muscovite and tourmaline alteration (refer to photographs).

Seventy four (74) selected and priority samples covering a range of alteration, mineralised quartz veins and host rock types were prepared in the Johannesburg laboratory and then sent for detailed XRF analyses in the Vancouver laboratory, Canada.

Average 12,315 1.23

The average tin grade of the quartz veins with visible cassiterite averages 1.23% Sn using a zero lower cutoff grade and 1.8% Sn using a 0.1% Sn lower cut-off grade. The cassiterite is highly nuggetty by nature which implies all quartz veins have potential to host tin mineralisation, even if no significant mineralisation was reported in a sample. In general, the visible cassiterite noted in the core and mapped in the artisanal workings occurs along the margins of the quartz veins and within the intense muscovite-tourmaline alteration selvages (Fig 4 photos 1, 2, 5, 6). Occasionally, and generally as larger crystals, cassiterite is evident within the actual quartz vein (Fig 4 photos 3,4). The following Table 2 highlights anomalous tin results in other rock types.

The extensive shallow artisanal workings provide support in that most quartz veins at surface are mined in some form along their entire strike lengths. Statistically, larger volume sampling is normally the method to better define the overall grade within a system having a strong “nugget’ effect. Accordingly, the Company is considering several bulk sampling techniques to better define an overall grade of mineralisation.

The anomalous tin result in sample A7494 provides an example of a quartz vein with elevated tin where no cassiterite was logged. Sample A7299 is particularly encouraging, as it shows the shear zone may host potentially economic tin mineralisation that would form an orebody parallel to bedding and is supported with other anomalous tin values greater than 300ppm. The samples from the yellow band, also interpreted to represent the large fluid conduits or “plumbing system” for the tin mineralisation are considered anomalous and contains arsenopyrite rich sulphides which are typically associated with tin mineralisation in other large tin deposits around the world.

Multi-element assays have been completed on 277 samples across the initial 6 holes (KKD001 - 006) aiming to understand the mineral potential, fluid flow pathways and associated pathfinder elements for this system. This data remains to be assessed in detail however early assessment supports a large fluid flow through the yellow band and sheared rocks with the tin mineralisation depositing along these structures and the open spaced quartz filled brittle style tension veins within the quartzite unit(s).

Forward Programme

Initially, Carnavale intends to complete

  • the original 2,000m diamond drilling programme with 305m remaining to be completed by 30 June 2019 to earn an initial 51% equity in APRU;

  • completion of detailed and systematic sampling and assays;

  • larger volume RC drilling and larger sample volumes are proposed to test the mineralisation to better define a representative overall tin grade of the deposit. Additional programmes of trial mining bulk sampling are also being considered; and

  • Ore sorting to separate the mineralised quartz veins, cassiterite and associated alteration envelopes from the distinctly different massive fine grained quartzite unit is to be assessed, as this may provide a beneficial processing upgrade. Ore sorting techniques have improved markedly over the last few years with many projects benefiting from material improvements in economics resulting from a reduced volume of rock requiring final processing (crushing) and improved concentrated grades delivered to the final stages of the processing plant.

Table JORC Code, 2012 Edition

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 completed for 10
holes with priority samples submitted to the
independent laboratory.

All drilling and sampling undertaken in an
industry standard manner.

All
core
is
geologically
logged
and
photographed, HQ and PQ 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 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 NQ, HQ
or PQ 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.

Cavities have been intersected on the
occasional locality and is presumed to
represent artisanal workings. Cavities are
recorded as no core returned.
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 hole has been geologically and
geotechnically logged and photographed by
consultant geologists, with systematic priority
sampling to be undertaken on the prospective
parts of the stratigraphy based on rock type
and alteration observed.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
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.

Whether sample sizes are appropriate to
the grain size of the material being
sampled.

Priority sampling of the holes has been
completed and dispatched to the laboratory.
Results are reported in this report.

Drill core is collected from the diamond drill
rig, logged and photographed, drill core is
then cut in half using a core saw, with one
half sent to the laboratory for assay and the
other half retained on site.

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

Industry prepared independent certified Sn
standards are inserted approximately 1 in 20
samples.

Two additional site prepared standards have
been submitted as a comparison of assay
techniques.
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 (i.e. lack of bias) and precision
have been established.

The samples have been submitted to a
commercial
independent
laboratory
in
Johannesburg, South Africa and then
selected
samples
sent
to
Vancouver
laboratory for XRF analysis.

The priority samples have been assayed by
two methods: initially using a four-acid digest
performed on 25g sample to quantitatively
dissolve most geological materials. Analysis
is then via ICP-MS + ICP-AES. This
technique
provides
multi-element
data
however is not suited to mineralised tin
samples. Follow-up analysis is then under
taken on samples using XRF spectroscopy
using lithium metaborate - lithium tetraborate
flux containing 20% NaNO3 with an XRF
finish.

The techniques are considered quantitative
in nature.

As discussed previously certified reference
standards have been inserted by the
Company and the laboratory also carries out
internal standards within individual batches.

The sampling and analytical techniques are
considered normal industry practice and
suitable for resource estimation.
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.

Sample results will be merged by the
company’s database consultants.

Results will be uploaded into the company
database, checked and verified.

Standards are checked and validated
against the certified preferred value.
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.

Drill hole collar locations are located by
handheld GPS to an accuracy of +/-5m.

Locations are given in UTM 36S.

Diagrams and location table are provided in
the report.

Topographic control is by a 30m resolution
DTM.

11

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
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.

Drilling is along the strike of the mineralised
zone generally on sections between 500m to
1000m apart.

All holes are monitored in regard to location,
dip and downhole azimuth, then geologically
logged in detail and provide a strong basis
for geological control and continuity of
mineralisation.
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.

Two drilling inclinations are used: 1) To
target
lithological
boundaries
of
the
mineralised zone (quartzite) approximately
perpendicular to the bedding planes. 2) To
target the mineralised veins the holes are
oblique to the bedding planes and closer to
perpendicular to the quartz veins.

In some cases, drilling is not at right angles
to the dip of mineralised structures and as
such true widths are less than downhole
widths. This will be allowed for in resource
estimates when geological interpretations
are completed.
Sample security
The measures taken to ensure sample
security.

Samples are collected by on site company
personnel/contractors and delivered direct to
the laboratory via a transport contractor.
Audits or reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of
sampling techniques and data.

No audits have been completed. Review of
QAQC data is carried out by database
consultants and company geologists.

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results

(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
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.

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.

Kikagati drilling is on ML1430 and EL1380
which are in the Isingiro District in South-
West Uganda.

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

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

All the land associated with the drilling has
compensation agreements in place and
there are no known land issues.
Exploration done by
other parties

Acknowledgment and appraisal of
exploration by other parties.

APRU have completed several pitting
programmes to test the colluvial gravels.

No hard-rock drilling has been undertaken
on any of the licences prior to Carnavale
involvement.

This drilling programme is the first ever
known on the project
Geology
Deposit type, geological setting and style
of mineralisation.

At the Kikagati Prospect, the geology is
composed of a quartzite sequence over
and underlain by phyllites. The sequence
has been folded and is east dipping at the
drill target. Mineralisation targeted is within
a series of west dipping quartz veins where

12

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
cassiterite occurs within veins and along
the altered wall rock on vein boundaries.
Additional potential for layer parallel
mineralization is interpreted to occur in fine
grained units within the quartzite sequence.
Drill hole Information
A summary of all information material to
the understanding of the exploration
results including a tabulation of the
following information for all Material drill
holes:

easting and northing of the drill hole collar

elevation or RL (Reduced Level –
elevation above sea level in metres) of the
drill hole collar

dip and azimuth of the hole

down hole length and interception depth

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.

Drill
hole
location
and
directional
information is provided in the attached
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.

Priority sample results are provided in this
report.
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 is not always perpendicular to the dip
of mineralisation and true widths are less than
downhole widths.
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 are required to fully
understand the deposit in greater detail.

Results shows highgrade tin mineralisation is

13

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
host in the quartz veins stockwork which are
hosted dominantly within the quartzite units.
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 work has been done
on the project except as described in the
report and previous reports.

Extensive artisanal working to approximately
30m depth occur along the entire 3km 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).

Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of
possible extensions, including the main
geological interpretations and future
drilling areas, provided this information is
not commercially sensitive.

The company plans to complete the 2,000m
drilling programme with the remaining 305m
planned to be completed by 30 June 2019.

Follow up infill drilling to increase the
definition of the mineralisation is being
planned.

Bulk sampling is currently being assessed to
assess the nuggetty cassiterite and provide a
more representative overall grade.

Ore sorting is to be assessed as the quartz
veins hosting the tin mineralisation are distinct
from the quartzite in character. Any positive
ore sorting characteristics may improve
possible
future
mining
methods
and
economics.
