ASX Announcement
ACQUISITION OF THE MT VENN GOLD PROJECT COMPLETED
Highlights
-
Woomera Mining Limited has completed the acquisition of Cazaly Resources Limited’s Mt Venn gold tenements located in the north eastern goldfields of Western Australia.
-
On 20 September 2019 Woomera;
-
acquired 100% of the shares in Yamarna West Pty Ltd (‘Yamarna’), a wholly owned subsidiary of Cazaly, which holds the tenements.
-
Yamarna will now transfer to Cazaly a 20% undivided interest in the Tenements, and
-
Yamarna and Cazaly have established an unincorporated joint venture under which the JV parties will hold the following interests:
Yamarna 80%
Cazaly 20%
- Heritage Clearance expected to be completed during October with drilling soon thereafter.
Woomera Mining Limited (ASX: WML, ‘Woomera’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce that it has completed the acquisition of an 80% interest in Cazaly Resources Limited’s (ASX:CAZ or ‘Cazaly’) Mt Venn Gold Project located 125 kms northeast of the township of Laverton in the north eastern goldfields of Western Australia.

Woomera’s Managing Director Gerard Anderson said:
“ The completion of the acquisition of an 80% interest in the Mt Venn Gold Project is a significant milestone for the Company. Mt Venn is a highly prospective underexplored greenstone belt where limited previous gold exploration has highlighted several gold prospects that require systematic drilling programs. It is rare to secure such a large land position in an area rapidly being realised as a world class gold district. The geological setting of Mt Venn is analogous to the nearby almost 6 million ounce Gruyere gold deposit. The Mt Venn Project is a particularly exciting opportunity for the Company”.
The Mt Venn project consists of two granted exploration licences E 38/3111 and E 38/3150. The tenements which cover approximately 390km[2] occur over some 50 kms of strike of the Mt Venn Greenstone Belt giving Woomera the dominant land position (>90%) over the Belt.
Cazaly gained access to the Project in January 2017 with the grant of Exploration Licence 38/3111 following the recommendation from the Department of Aboriginal Affairs to grant access permits to the licence which lies within the Cosmo Newberry Aboriginal reserve which is also subject to a Native Title claim by the Yilka people. Yamarna signed a Native Title Agreement with the Yilka People and the Cosmo Newberry Aboriginal Corporation (CNAC) on 28th July 2016.
The tenements are highly prospective for gold. There are numerous gold anomalies identified from soil and rock chip sampling and RAB, aircore and RC drilling including very high grade rock chip samples at Chapman’s Reward and Lang’s Find that assayed >200 g/t Au (Source: The WA Department of Mines 1923 Annual Report), Mount Cumming (rock chips including 8.4 g/t Au, 3.2% Cu and 3.9 g/t Ag) (Source: (WAMEX Report A064708) and adjacent geochemical anomalies none of which have been drilled and the Three Bears Prospect where aircore drilling has outlined gold including 12m @ 1.19 g/t Au (Reference CAZ ASX release Feb 2017).
In addition to the gold potential, airborne electromagnetic surveys have identified numerous late time conductors within the Mount Cumming and Mount Cornell ultramafic complexes. The conductors are interpreted as being potential sulphide sources in the basal contact zones of the mafic/ultramafic intrusions.
The Mt Venn tenements are located close to Gold Road Resources Limited’s Gruyere Gold Deposit (6.61M Ozs Au Resource) ( Gold Road Resources Ltd ASX:GOR Diggers and Dealers Presentation 6 August 2019 ) and to Great Boulder Resources Cu-Ni-Co Mt Venn Deposit (Figure 2).

Gold Potential
The overall potential for gold discoveries is considered to be excellent. There are several gold targets that could be drilled once Heritage Clearances are completed. Foremost among the gold targets are the Three bears Prospect, Chapman’s Reward, Lang’s Find and Mount Cumming. (Figure 3).

Chapman’s Reward - The first discovery of gold was officially reported in 1923 by the State Prospecting Party’s discovery of several existing pits, at Chapman’s Reward, following numerous high-grade quartz veins, in schist or gneiss, with widths of up to 5m and specks of fine gold. Selected sampling from pit walls and dump material by the SPP were encouraging with assays up to 201g/t Au (Results of SPP sampling shown below in Table 1 - Source The WA Department of Mines 1923 Annual Report).

Mount Cumming - During 1995 to 1997, Elmina undertook rock chip sampling with three samples (out of a total of 106) assaying >0.5g/t Au. All of these samples were associated with quartz veins in outcrop areas at Jutson Rocks (20.5g/t and 15.8g/t) and Mount Cumming (8.4g/t Au, 3.2% Cu and 3g/t Ag). (WAMEX Report A064708).

Table 5. Rock chip sampling results at Mount Cumming
During 1996, a regional soil sampling (1000m by 250m grid) was completed by Elmina which identified two large anomalous areas (Lang’s Find and Mount Cumming) and several small anomalies. Infill soil sampling the following year (500m by 100m grid) identified four main anomalous clusters, located at Lang’s Find, south-west of Mount Cumming, west of Rutter’s Soak and east of Mount Scott. Most of the gold assays occurred in the 3 to
7
20ppb range, with the highest value of 720ppb being located 250m east of the above rock chip sample of 8.4g/t Au at Mount Cumming (WAMEX Report A064708).
None of the adjacent geochemical soil anomalies to Mount Cumming have been drilled.
Nickel and Cu-Ni-Co Potential
Both ground and airborne electromagnetic surveys were completed in the northern tenement area including over the Mount Cumming and Mount Cornell ultramafic complexes. Numerous late time conductors were identified and interpreted as being potential sulphide sources in the basal contact zones of the mafic/ultramafic intrusions (Figure 8). Note these positions are similar to the structural and stratigraphic setting of major nickelcopper massive sulphide deposits elsewhere in Western Australia.
RC drilling of a number of conductor targets did not intersect sulphides however, several conductors were not drill tested due to a lack of funds. A summary of the opportunities includes:
-
Mt Cumming – 3 of 5 modelled Priority 1 Conductors not drilled to date
-
Mt Warren – 200m long Conductor not drilled
-
Mt Cornell – EM trend of 750m

Figure 8. Mt Cumming and Mt Cornell EM Conductors
Another potential nickel target includes nickel in soil anomalies which yielded >700 ppm Ni and > 420 ppm Cu interpreted in komatiites and gabbros.
Base Metal Potential
The Rutters Zinc Prospect lies in felsic volcanics on the margins of the Wartu granite. Drilling intersected widespread and thick low grade zinc including 39m @ 0.23% Zn, 40 @ 0.12% Zn and 13m @ 0.25% Zn.
Whilst the zinc anomalism is low grade, it is possible its extensive development coupled with elevated gold, silver, arsenic, copper and lead occurring in felsic volcanics is indicative of potential volcanogenic massive sulphide mineralisation at depth. This is supported by the presence of pervasive pyrite alteration and coincident EM and IP anomalies.
