For the period ended 30 September, 2016
Carnavale Resources Limited (“CAV” or “the Company”) reports on activities completed during the quarter to 30 September 2016.
Lake Roe Project – Au (100% CAV)
-
RC drilling about to commence at the Stag Prospect
-
Programme of ~1,500m of RC drilling planned to test anomalous aircore / RAB results which occur at the bottom of selected holes along a 600m long trend
-
Targeted results from previous aircore / RAB drilling include:
-
RORB0402 *8m @ 8.22g/t Au from 79m including 1m @ 57.17g/t Au
RORB0501 20m @ 0.57g/t Au from 76m RORB0508 2m @ 0.15g/t Au from 103m RORB0536 8m @ 1.19g/t Au from 69m MRAC0005 10m @ 0.14g/t Au from 74m
- (*Mineralisation open at end of hole)
Business Development
- The Company continues to assess various opportunities in the resource sector. Several resource projects were reviewed during the period, with selected reviews continuing.

Lake Roe Project - Au (100% CAV)
The Lake Roe Project, comprises of two exploration licenses (E28/2303 and E28/2304) located 120km ENE of Kalgoorlie (Fig 1). The two tenements cover a sequence of deformed Archean greenstone belt within the Southern Laverton Tectonic Zone (SLTZ) and are considered prospective for gold mineralisation.
The Southern Laverton Tectonic Zone is host to a number of large gold deposits with the Lake Roe Project area centred between Carosue Dam (3.5Moz), located approximately 40km to the north, and Karonie (0.9Moz), approximately 50km to the south. These deposits are associated with the major Keith-Kilkenny and Claypan Shears, which represent two major tectonic shear zones that converge near the Lake Roe region.
The project area also lies approximately 10km north and east of ASX listed Breaker Resources (Breaker) Lake Roe project where Breaker has defined a large gold-arsenic-tellurium-molybdenum anomaly and recent deeper RC drilling results show potential for an emerging large gold system (Fig 2). The Breaker gold mineralisation is noted to be associated with fractionated dolerites within the Claypan Shear Zone and adjacent to a granite contact. The Stag Prospect, is interpreted to lie on a second order splay structure immediately adjacent to the regional shear zone that hosts the Bombora Prospect and in close proximity to an intrusive granite to the east.

The Stag Prospect
The Stag Prospect, located in the northern portions of E28/2303, is a 600m long zone of anomalous gold occurring in the bottom of hole of previous explorers RAB / aircore drill holes. The anomalous gold occurs associated with sheared sericite-biotite-chlorite altered intermediate volcaniclastic rocks with a variable quartz veining. The bedrock is highly weathered to approximately 100m vertical depth with up to 30m of transported cover.
Importantly, a number of drill holes intersected broader zones of strong bedrock gold mineralisation which remains open at the end of the holes.
STAG PROSPECT - Anomalous gold zones remaining open at the end of the drill holes include:
- RORB0402 8m @ 8.22g/t Au from 79m including 1m @ 57.17g/t Au RORB0501 20m @ 0.57g/t Au from 76m RORB0508 2m @ 0.15g/t Au from 103m RORB0536 8m @ 1.19g/t Au from 69m MRAC0005 *10m @ 0.14g/t Au from 74m
*Mineralisation open at end of hole)
Stag Drilling Programme
Field inspection of the previous drilling at the Stag Prospect has been undertaken. The inspection and examination of previous drilling data confirms only limited deeper drilling (2 RC and 2 diamond holes) was completed by previous explorers. Re-logging of the drilling and assessment of anomalous geochemistry suggests the mineralisation is essentially untested as it is interpreted to dip towards the west, parallel to three of the previous follow-up RC and diamond drilling. The fourth hole intersected weak anomalous gold and this zone is interpreted to represent a deleted zone within the weathering profile.
The weathering profile indicates transported cover to approximately 30m, followed by leach saprolite and saprock before encountering fresh bedrock. In many instances the RAB / aircore drilling finished in saprock material. The proposed RC drilling aims to test the fresh bedrock material associated with the elevated gold results which generally occur in the saprock / fresh bedrock interface.
Carnavale previously announced an extensional aircore drilling programme would be undertaken and this has been reviewed and changed in favour of a detailed RC drilling programme to test the orientation and tenor of mineralisation beneath the earlier RAB / aircore drilling. The drilling programme comprises up to a planned 13 holes on seven sections for approximately 1,500m.
Corporate
The Company had a cash position of $1.25 million as at 30 September 2016.

1 Carnavale, through 100% owned subsidiary Tojo Minerals Pty Ltd (Tojo), held joint venture earn-in rights with Columbus Gold Corporation whereby Tojo had the right to initially earn 51% of the project tenements via expenditure of US$2M over a period of three years from the execution date of 15 August 2013. Tojo had the additional right to elect to earn an additional 24% (total of 75%) via additional expenditure of US$7M over a further period of 4 years from this election. Expenditure thereafter is on a pro rata basis with dilution clauses standard in this type of agreement.
During the quarter, Carnavale withdrew from the Joint Venture.
