Mt Caudan Drilling Results

Highlights

  • Mineralisation intersected in all holes drilled.

  • Drilling completed over 900m within a 1.5km long target.

  • Better results include:

  • 51m @ 58.8% Fe, 34m @ 57.8% Fe, 12m @ 58.6% Fe, 25m @ 56.9% Fe

Cazaly Iron Pty Ltd (Cazaly) has r eported the following summary of results from a d rilling program carried out at Mt Caudan, Parker R a nge, WA.

Following initial ground assessment and positive results from surface sampling, Caza l y planned and has recently completed a first pass reconnaissance drill program over the Mt Caudan i r on prospect at Parker Range. A total of 13 reve r se circulation (RC) drillholes were completed for 8 82m. Results have proven to be highly encoura g ing and include an outstanding result of 51m @ 58.8% Fe from 11m.

Mineralisation was intersected in a l l holes over 900m of strike. The host banded iron f ormation (BIF) forms a prominent ridge at Mt Caudan, dips approximately 50º to the northwest and pinches and swells from 15m to 40m in thickne s s. There is a small amount of low-grade canga ( s econdary iron rich mineralisation) at surface shed from the BIF ridge.

The drilling followed up on results f rom exploration mapping and surface sampling which focused on the Mt Caudan banded iron forma t ion. Rockchip samples were initially taken along t he BIF over a strike extent of 1.5km. Several samples returned assay results greater than 60% Fe.

Mineralisation remains open in all d irections. The excellent result from PKRC0001 oc c urs in an area of limited outcropping BIF providin g encouragement for further discoveries in the pro j ect area. The thick mineralisation found in PKR C 0001 and PKRC0008 also may indicate significa n t near surface enrichment and is an obvious targ e t on other drill sections where drilling of the BIF has occurred at deeper levels.

Pursuant to the Mt Caudan Iron O re Farm-in, Cazaly Iron Pty Ltd (Cazaly), a subsi d iary of Cazaly Resources Limited, has the right to earn 80% of the iron ore rights in certain iron ore t e nements at Mt Caudan through the expenditure of $1million over three years, subject to certain conditi o ns precedent. The Mt Caudan Project lies approximately 15 kilometres south-east of Marvel Loch and approximately 60 kilometres by road south of the P erth–Kalgoorlie railway.

Previously a review of historic data indicated that the Mt Caudan area hosted several significant iron deposits with investigations made between 1965 and 1969 suggesting exploration targets ranging between 5 to 30M tonnes. The targets are conceptual in nature and should not be construed as an estimate of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves. The tonnage range for the exploration prospect at Mt Caudan is based on estimations completed by previous operators between 1965 and 1969 and reported to the Department of Industry and Resources.

The Yilgarn Iron Province has a history of large-scale iron production, with the first iron ore exported from Western Australia coming from the Koolanooka deposit in the Yilgarn during the mid 1960s. More recently, iron ore mining in the Yilgarn has been characterised by modest production from several small and dispersed hematite deposits, such as Koolyanobbing.

Cazaly has reported that results from its work have shown that the Mount Caudan project has the potential to host significant resources of iron ore. The Company is currently planning follow up drilling.
