Yarawindah Brook Project
Maiden Drilling Program
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company commenced its maiden drilling program at the Yarawindah Brook Project. The program consists of approximately 1,000m of diamond drilling focussing on the priority XC-29 anomaly. The Company will also test a recently recognised PGE target at the Yarabrook Hill Prospect.

Program Background
The XC-29 anomaly was first identified by Airborne Electromagnetic (AEM) survey in late 2020 (see ASX release 14 December 2020 and 11 February 2021), consisting of three discrete zones over a strike of 1.3km. The anomaly is coincident with interpreted mafic and ultramafic rocks which are typical host rocks for orthomagmatic Ni-CuPGE mineralisation.
Since the initial identification, surface geophysical (Fixed Loop Electromagnetics or FLTEM) surveying has confirmed the presence of several strong (up to 2,500 siemens), bedrock conductors (Figure 2). The anomaly has been modelled as four conductive plates, with likely faulted offsets and potentially folded. The top of the conductors lie approximately 60-80m below surface, below the base of weathering as interpreted from the AEM survey (Figure 3). The initial drilling program will target each of these plates with further drilling contingent on results.
The AEM survey indicates that the anomaly extends further north, which will be surveyed during a second phase of FLTEM later in the year and subject to successful results from the current program.
XC-29 lies on the Brassica Trend, a package of mafic and ultramafic rocks striking over 6km with a further four AEM conductors so far identified that are yet to receive any further advanced exploration, plus a cluster of strongly PGE-anomalous rock chips at the Aries Prospect. Successful results from XC-29 would provide further encouragement to explore these anomalies.

New PGE Target at Yarabrook Hill
Caspin’s exploration focus to date at the Yarawindah project has been to identify high value nickel, copper and PGE mineralisation hosted by massive sulphide deposits. In this context, the Company has successfully employed electromagnetic techniques and developed several new targets with XC-29 an immediate priority.
However, the Company has also recently considered the potential for low-sulphide style, PGE-rich mineralisation, as reported by Chalice Mining at their Julimar Project, 40km to the south of Yarawindah Brook. Importantly, this style of mineralisation typically occurs as minor disseminated sulphide, which is unlikely to be detected with electromagnetic techniques.
To this end, the Company has reviewed the results of past PGE exploration at the Yarabrook Hill Prospect. That work defined a body of PGE mineralisation within the regolith over a strike-length of about 2km. However, the review has concluded that there was little effective testing below base of the weathered zone, which is typically about 50m deep. Of the holes drilled beyond this depth, most were only drilled to a designated depth of only 81m, and these did confirm that PGE mineralisation extended into the fresh rock.
A review of historical exploration has identified an opportunity to discover sulphide PGE (Platinum Group Elements, primarily palladium and platinum) mineralisation at Yarabrook Hill, beneath oxide mineralisation striking over 2km at surface.
Past exploration drill intercepts include:
-
29m @ 1.03g/t Pd and 0.35g/t Pt from 5m (Oxide, YBR089)
-
7m @ 1.24g/t Pd and 0.60g/t Pt from 10m (Oxide, YBR038)
-
7m @ 1.18g/t Pd and 0.34g/t Pt from 19m (Oxide, YBR092)
-
2m @ 2.86g/t Pd and 2.45g/t Pt from 51m (Sulphide, YBR088)
Yarabrook Hill is located 7km north of XC-29 and was the focus of limited PGE exploration during the 1970’s and 1980’s, following the discovery of surficial deposits of palladium and platinum within lateritic rocks. Several drill programs identified supergene mineralisation at shallow depths (Figure 4), but rarely explored deeper than the weathered zone, nominally below 50m vertical depth.

Figure 4. Collar plan and significant PGE assays.
A small number of deeper drilling campaigns at Yarabrook Hill were focused on nickel and copper sulphide mineralisation but were rarely assayed for PGEs despite these elements all commonly occurring together. Section 50 000mN (Figure 5) shows the extensive PGE mineralisation in the regolith continues into the immediately underlying fresh rock as a broad zone of disseminated sulphide. Despite the broad widths of

disseminated sulphides they intersected, the older, deeper diamond drilling on section 50 000mN was not assayed for PGEs.
==> picture [482 x 338] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 5. Section 50 000N demonstrating extensive surface mineralisation at surface and extending into fresh rock, but not assayed in deeper drill holes.
Section 50 600mN (Figure 6) confirms that similar disseminated sulphide zones in the fresh rock do host significant PGE. This is because part of DNN07 was sampled for palladium and platinum retrospectively by a later explorer and returned values up to 3.0g/t Pd . Thick zones including 8m @ 0.58g/t Pd and 12.5m @ 0.55 g/t Pd demonstrate that these fresh sulphides at depth are prospective for PGE mineralisation, DNN07 was not sampled for PGEs beyond 166m. Unfortunately, these older deep core drill holes are no longer available for resampling.
These disseminated sulphide bearing zones at Yarabrook Hill are up to about 200m thick in total and dip gently to the east. Given the strike-extent inferred from the PGE mineralisation in the regolith of about 2km, this suggests a potentially large, currently untested, volume of this mineralisation.

Figure 6. Section 50 600N demonstrating PGE mineralisation extending into fresh rock but not effectively tested.
The Company is planning to drill two holes beneath stronger zones of oxide mineralisation that may overlie a higher-grade sulphide source, as palladium is relatively immobile in the weathering zone.
WA Government EIS Scheme
The Company is pleased to advise that, subsequent to the end of the quarter, it has successfully been awarded up to $150,000 through the WA Government Exploration Incentive Scheme, co-funded drilling program. The funds will be used to drill a hole testing the full intrusive sequence at Yarabrook Hill, separate to the current program. The Company would like to acknowledge the WA Government’s on-going support for the exploration sector of the WA mining industry.
The Company spent $158,211 on the above exploration activities at Yarawindah during the quarter.
Mount Squires Project
The Mount Squires Project lies within the West Musgrave region of Western Australia and is 100% owned by Caspin.
Results from a small batch of 71 soil samples, collected as part of an orientation survey over the Handpump area, have been received. The results determined that Ultra Fine Fraction analysis was the most appropriate analytical technique for detection of gold and pathfinder elements for soil geochemistry programs at the project. A larger batch of 560 samples collected along strike from Handpump have been submitted for analysis utilising this technique. All results are pending.
There was $88,810 in exploration expenditure incurred.

Mount Squires Project Background
Mount Squires is a large scale, greenfield-style gold and base metal project. Gold mineralisation was first identified at the Handpump Prospect by Western Mining Corporation (WMC) during geochemical surveying in the late 1990’s. Several gold anomalies were identified, but the primary target was nickel and copper sulphide mineralisation, which returned poor results. Later exploration by Beadell Resources Ltd in the mid 2000’s identified a number of gold prospects with further soil geochemistry, rock chip sampling and mapping. Drilling at the Handpump Prospect returned significant intercepts of 43m @ 1.18g/t from 14m including 9m @ 3.25g/t from 34m. After the initial discovery, there was limited exploration due to a change in the corporate strategy and the project was later surrendered.
The remainder of the project remains under-explored with only broad-spaced soil geochemistry completed. Caspin considers that the geological setting may have some affinity with intracontinental “hot-spot” epithermal gold mineralisation. Examples of this mineralisation style are deposits in the northern Nevada region, including the Sleeper deposit, with high gold grades from shallow crustal emplacement.
==> picture [386 x 341] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 7. Mount Squires Project area and mineralisation trends.
Most of the project is yet to have any form of modern exploration. As such, the Company's objectives are geared towards reconnaissance-style soil geochemistry and drilling along a 50km long structural corridor, which if proved positive can be followed by targeted RC and diamond drilling.
The project is also contiguous with the West Musgrave nickel-copper sulphide project, operated by OZ Minerals Limited, on the eastern tenement boundary. Significant nickel-copper sulphide mineralisation has been found at the One Tree Hill Prospect, only 200m outside of the Mount Squires Project tenement boundary. Caspin will concurrently continue to evaluate the potential for Ni-Cu mineralisation along strike from the One Tree Hill Prospect.
