Quarterly Activities Report For the quarter ended June 2022

Corporate Highlights

  • Cavalier commenced trading on 17 June 2022 following the completion of its $5m IPO which capitalised the Company at $8.6m

  • Exploration drilling commenced at the Crawford Gold Deposit (Crawford)

  • 5,000m reverse circulation (RC) program planned to firm up the current Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and explore for extensions along strike and at depth

Cavalier Resources Limited (ASX: CVR) ('Cavalier' or 'the Company') is pleased to report on its activities during the three months ending 30 June 2022.

Overview:

Historical drilling at Crawford has returned high-grade results inside thick mineralised zones of near surface oxide material and a resulting JORC compliant MRE (see Table 1). The initial 5,000m phase of the drilling campaign was designed to test those zones, providing further confidence in the current MRE, and then move to extensional drilling along strike and depth to explore if there is any potential to increase the size of the current 101,000 oz gold resource.

The Leonora Gold Project comprises two sub-projects, Crawford and Gambier Lass North, consisting of ten exploration licences, a prospecting licence, a miscellaneous licence and a mining lease. The Crawford Gold Deposit, which includes a 101,000oz JORC compliant Mineral Resource estimate, is located on the granted mining lease M37/1202.

Figure 1: The Leonora Gold Project Areas

The Crawford Gold Project:

Crawford is primarily an oxide hosted supergene style mineralised system which has been privately advanced towards a mining operation. The Company intends to test the current MRE (outlined in red in Figure 3) and then move to extensional drilling along strike and depth to explore if there is any potential to increase the size of the 101,000 oz gold resource.

Sections of the previous drilling were completed on 10m spaced sections with 140 RC holes for 13,528m drilled and focussed on infilling the oxide zone with little drilling extending into material deeper than 70m. Thick Zones of mineralisation close to the surface are open along strike and at depth; historical drilling results include:

  • 11m @ 2.17g/t from 16m;

  • 10m @ 3.38g/t (inc. 2m @ 12.4g/t) from 17m;

  • 18m @ 2.77g/t (inc. 3m @ 6.96g/t) from 27m;

  • 19m @ 1.64g/t (inc. 4m @ 3.23g/t) from 30m;

  • 15m @ 2.49g/t (inc. 3m @ 7.87g/t) from 35m;

  • 6m @ 5.55g/t (inc. 1m @ 21.1g/t) from 37m;

  • 22m @ 2.98g/t (inc. 6m @ 5.39g/t) from 38m;

  • 7m @ 5.39g/t, (inc. 2m @ 14.2g/t) from 49m; and

  • 6m @ 2.12g/t, (inc.1m @ 7.20g/t) from 55m.

Daniel Tuffin, Executive Technical Director, commented:

“Cavalier has planned an extensive exploration program over the coming two years, starting with the Company's 5,000m RC drill campaign at the Crawford Gold Project, which began within seven days of the Company listing on 17 June 2022.

Historical drilling at Crawford has returned high-grade results inside thick mineralised zones of near surface oxide material. The initial phase of this campaign will test those zones, providing further confidence in the current MRE. It will then move to extensional drilling along strike and depth to explore if there is any potential to increase the size of the current 101,000 oz gold resource.

The Company has since announced it has commenced Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) to potentially generate a maiden JORC compliant Ore Reserve. To expedite works, the Company intends to carry out the PFS in conjunction with this drilling; the initial phases of the PFS require physical and cost estimates that take time to gather which current resource will be suitable. Final PFS numbers will be based on the updated resource resulting from the current drill program.”
