ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

MT VENN - INFILL AND STEP-OUT DRILLING PLANNED AT MT CORNELL PROSPECT

Highlights

  • Thicker disseminated nickel – copper mineralisation has been returned from the Mt Cornell NickelCopper-PGE Prospect, with broad composited assays up to 22m at 0.19% Ni & 0.28% Cu from 28 – 50m in MVRC064, including the previously reported higher grade massive sulphide intersection of 11m at 0.34% Ni & 0.42% Cu

  • Mt Cornell is now seen as a world class, underexplored magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE prospect that extends over 5km strike and 3km width and to over 500m below surface

  • Drill tested airborne electromagnetic (EM) targets have confirmed Ni-Cu-PGE sulphides are present and downhole EM (DHTEM) will now be required to define deeper conductors beyond the depth limits of the airborne EM survey data

  • Further, oxide Ni-Cu mineralisation may not be detectable by EM, hence shallow drill testing is required

  • First pass 3-D models based upon massive sulphide intersections in the drill holes, aeromagnetic and ground EM interpretations have now been created

  • Infill drilling is planned to test the initial 500m strike of the prospect modelled to date

  • Further assay results and drill planning are pending

Woomera Mining Limited (ASX:WML) ( Woomera or the Company ) is pleased to announce follow-up drilling has been planned to expand the nickel and copper sulphide mineralisation intersected in reverse circulation (RC) drilling at its 80% owned Mt Venn JV Project (WML 80% and CAZ 20%) in Western Australia.

The Mt Cornell sulphide intersections are located within the larger Mt Cumming Mafic Sill Complex.

RC holes MVRC063-MVRC065 targeted shallow electromagnetic (EM) anomalies within the Mt Cornell Sill. MVRC063 intersected 2m at 0.24% Ni from 46m. MVRC064 intersected 22m at 0.19% Ni & 0.28% Cu from 28m, including 11m at 0.34% Ni & 0.42% Cu from 41m which included 3m at 0.79% Ni plus 2m at 1.31% Cu . MVRC065 intersected 5m at 0.31% Ni & 0.65% Cu from 94m, including 1m at 0.71% Ni plus 1m at 1.68% Cu .

Significant results (>1000ppm Ni and Cu + >0.1 g/t Pd + Pd) are presented in Tables 1 and 2 while assay results are awaited for the balance of the holes completed as part of the October/November drilling campaign at Mt Venn.

3-D Modelling and Planned Drilling

Modelling of available aeromagnetic data, ground EM data and the recent RC drill hole data has highlighted a tightly folded, basal ultramafic feeder channel where the massive sulphides have accumulated (Figures 1 and 2). The channel is interpreted to dip shallowly (30[0] ) to the west and follows the predicted base of the Mt Cornell Sill (Figure 3).

Three phases of drilling are planned for 2022 to scope the size and distribution of sulphide mineralisation throughout the Mt Cornell Sill.

An initial Phase 1 campaign of 2,300 m of RC plus diamond drilling (21 holes) will target the modelled mineralisation over 500m strike, down to 100m below surface. The presence of violarite in the drill chips highlights the potential for shallow oxide (supergene nickel) mineralisation to be intersected to the east of the recent drilling.

Phase 2 drilling will target the predicted 5km southern extension of the feeder channel. This drilling will be supported by surface pXRF soil geochemistry and additional ground EM surveys as required.

Phase 3 drilling will target below the large Mt Cornell Sill, which has a strike length of 5km and is 3km wide down to plus 500m below surface. The drilling will initially step out below the Phase 1 programme. The deeper drilling will be guided by downhole EM (DHTEM) as required.

Next Steps

Subject to all statutory approvals and diamond drill rig availability, Phase 1 drilling will commence late in the March Quarter 2022. Portable XRF soil sampling and ground EM surveys will run concurrently, ahead of the Phase 2 drilling targeting the feeder channel further south. Phase 3 drilling will commence as/when results from the Phase 1 campaign come to hand.

Two EM targets located further east (Figure 2) remain as priority drill targets that will be tested once EL38/3581 is granted.

Further, the Company still intends to drill test EM#11-13, that were abandoned because of poor access after heavy rainfall in November. These targets lie in a similar stratigraphic position to the Mt Cornell Sill intersections.

About the Mt Venn RC Drilling Programme

Eight RC holes were completed for an advance of 2,105m over the Three Bears Gold Prospect in October this year. Results from these holes are pending.

At the Mt Cumming Ni-Cu-PGE Intrusive Sill Complex, seven RC holes were drilled for an advance of 1,360m during November. Five EM conductors associated with historical anomalous shallow auger soils (up to 54 ppb Pt+Pd combined)[(1)] and copper plus gold rocks chips up to 3.2% Cu and 8.4 g/t Au[(2)] were drilled along with one EM conductor along strike from a semi-massive sulphide intersection of 21m at 0.63% Cu & 0.2% Ni returned from Ausgold and Great Boulder’s Winchester Project.[(3)] Laboratory assay results are awaited for the balance of the holes not reported here.

Woomera’s Managing Director Mr. Kevin Seymour commented:

The continuity of mineralisation between holes MVRC063, 64 and 65 is very impressive and the intersections align well with our predictive model for nickel-copper-PGE mineralisation in the much larger Mt Cumming Mafic Sill Complex. The potential for significant thicknesses of shallow nickel and copper mineralisation is therefore considered very good. We look forward to commencing infill and step-out drilling at Mt Cornell once all the statutory approvals are in place.”

This ASX announcement has been approved and authorized for release by Woomera Mining’s Board of Directors.

Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling
(eg cut channels, random chips,

standard measurement tools
appropriate to the minerals
under investigation, such as
down hole gamma sondes, or
handheld XRF instruments, etc).
These examples should not be
taken as limiting the broad
meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures
taken to ensure sample
representivity and the
appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems
used.
Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material
to the Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry
standard’ work has been done
this would be relatively simple
(eg ‘reverse circulation drilling
was used to obtain 1 m samples
from which 3 kg was pulverised
to produce a 30 g charge for fire
assay’). In other cases more
explanation may be required,
such as where there is coarse
gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities
or mineralisation types (eg
submarine nodules) may warrant
disclosure of detailed
information.
• At Mt Venn gold mineralised RC intervals are
systematically sampled using industry
standard 1m intervals collected from reverse
circulation (RC) drill holes and/or 4m
composites from reconnaissance Aircore
traverses. Surface and underground Diamond
holes may be sampled along sub 1m
geological contacts, otherwise 1m intervals
are the default.
• Drill hole locations were designed to allow for
spatial spread across the interpreted
mineralised zone. All RC samples are
collected, and cone split to 3-4kg samples on
1m metre intervals. Aircore samples are
speared from piles on the ground and are
composited into 4m intervals before
despatching to the laboratory. Single metre
bottom of hole Aircore samples are also
collected for trace element determinations.
Diamond core is half cut along downhole
orientation lines. Half core is sent to the
laboratory for analysis and the other half is
retained for future reference.
• Standard fire assaying is employed using a
50gm charge with an OES finish for all
diamond, RC and Aircore chip samples. Trace
element determination uses a multi (4) acid
digest and ICP- AES or MS finish.

Measures taken to maximise
sample recovery and ensure
representative nature of the

Whether a relationship exists
between sample recovery and
grade and whether sample bias
may have occurred due to
preferential loss/gain of
fine/coarse material.
• All diamond core is jigsawed to ensure any
core loss, if present is fully accounted for.
Bulk RC and Aircore drill holes samples are
visually inspected by the supervising geologist
to ensure adequate clean sample recoveries
are achieved. Note Aircore drilling while clean
is not used in any resource estimation work.
Any wet, contaminated or poor sample
returns are flagged and recorded in the
database to ensure no sampling bias is
introduced.
• Zones of poor sample return both in RC and
Aircore are recorded in the database and
cross checked once assay results are received
from the laboratory to ensure no
misrepresentation of sampling intervals has
occurred. Zero sample recovery is achieved
while navi drilling. The navi lengths are kept
to a minimum and avoided when close to
potentiallymineralised units.
Logging Whether core and chip samples
have been geologically and
geotechnically logged to a level
of detail to support appropriate

mining studies and metallurgical
studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or

• All drill samples are geologically logged on site
by professional geologists. Details on the host
lithologies, deformation, dominant minerals
including sulphide species and alteration
minerals plus veining are recorded relationally
(separately) so the logging is interactive and
not biased to lithology.
• Drill hole logging is qualitative on visual
recordings of rock forming minerals and
quantitative on estimates of mineral
abundance.
• The entire length of each drill hole is
geologically logged.

used for the 50gm charge on standard fire
assays.
• All samples submitted to the laboratory are
sorted and reconciled against the submission
documents. In addition to duplicates a high
grade or low grade standard is included every
25thsample, a controlled blank is inserted
every 100thsample. The laboratory uses
barren flushes to clean their pulveriser and
their own internal standards and duplicates to
ensure industry best practice quality control is
maintained.

whether acceptable levels of
accuracy (ie lack of bias) and

• The fire assay method is designed to measure
the total gold and PGE’s in the core, RC and
Aircore samples. The technique involves
standard fire assays using a 50gm sample
charge with a lead flux (decomposed in the
furnace). The prill is totally digested by HCl
and HNO3acids before measurement of the
gold and PGE determination with ICP-OES
finishes to give a lower limit of detection of
0.001 g/t Au, Pt and Pd. Aqua regia digest is
considered adequate for surface soil sampling.
• No field analyses of precious metal or base
metal grades are completed. Quantitative
analysis of the gold, PGE’s and trace elements
is only undertaken in a controlled laboratory
environment.
• Industry best practice is employed with the
inclusion of duplicates and standards as
discussed above and used by Woomera as
well as the laboratory. All Woomera

a tabulation of the following
information for all Material drill
holes:
o easting and northing of
the drill hole collar
o elevation or RL (Reduced
Level – elevation above
sea level in metres) of
the drill hole collar
o dip and azimuth of the
hole
o down hole length and
interception depth
o hole length.
If the exclusion of this
information is justified on the
basis that the information is not

explain why this is the case.
• All drill holes reported by Woomera must
have the following parameters applied. All
drill holes completed, including holes with
no significant results (as defined in the
Attachments) are reported in this
announcement.
• Easting and northing are given in MGA94
coordinates as defined in the Attachments
for Mount Venn.
• RL is AHD
• Dip is the inclination of the hole from the
horizontal. Azimuth is reported in
magnetic degrees as the direction the hole
is drilled. MGA94 and magnetic degrees
vary by <10in the project area. All
reported azimuths are corrected for
magnetic declinations.
• Down hole length is the distance measured
along the drill hole trace. Intersection
length is the thickness of an anomalous
gold intersection measured along the drill
hole trace.
• Hole length is the distance from the
surface to the end of the hole measured
along the drill hole trace.
• No results are currently available from the
exploration drilling included in this report.
• Gold and PGE grade (when reported)
intersections will be reported >0.4 g/t Au
within 4m Aircore composites or >0.1 g/t
Au within single metre RC samples (with up
to 4m of internal dilution) are considered
significant in the broader mineralised host
rocks.

• Base metal grades will be reported
>1000ppm.
• Diamond core samples are generally cut
along geological contacts or up to 1m
maximum.
• Precious metal grades greater than 0.5 g/t
Au are highlighted where good continuity
of higher-grade mineralization is observed.
0.1 g/t Au cut-offs are used for
reconnaissance explorationprograms.
Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results,
weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum
grade truncations (eg cutting of
high grades) and cut-off grades
are usually Material and should
be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts
incorporate short lengths of high
grade results and longer lengths
of low grade results, the
procedure used for such
aggregation should be stated
and some typical examples of
such aggregations should be
shown in detail.
The assumptions used for any
reporting of metal equivalent
values should be clearly stated.
• The first precious metal or base metal
assay result received from each sample
reported by the laboratory is tabled in the
list of significant assays. Subsequent
repeat analyses when performed by the
laboratory are checked against the original
to ensure repeatability of the assay results.
• Weighted average techniques are applied
to determine the grade of the anomalous
interval when geological intervals less than
1m have been sampled.
• Exploration drilling results are generally
reported using a 0.5 g/t Au, or PGE and
1000ppm base metals lower cut-off for RC
and diamond or 0.1 g/t Au for Aircore
drilling (as described above and reported
in the Attachments) and may include up to
4m of internal dilution.
• All assay results are reported to 3
significant figures in line with the analytical
precision of the laboratory techniques
employed.
• No metal equivalent reporting is used or
applied.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths
These relationships are
particularly important in the
reporting of Exploration Results.
If the geometry of the
mineralisation with respect to
the drill hole angle is known, its
nature should be reported.
If it is not known and only the
down hole lengths are reported,
there should be a clear
statement to this effect (eg
‘down hole length, true width
• The intersection length is measured down
the length of the hole and is not usually
the true width. When sufficient
knowledge on the thickness of the
intersection is known an estimate of the
true thickness is provided

_not known’). _
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections
(with scales) and tabulations of
intercepts should be included for
any significant discovery being
reported These should include,
but not be limited to a plan view
of drill hole collar locations and
appropriate sectional views.
• Detailed drill hole sections and plans for
each prospect must be plotted and
interpreted as part of the internal QAQC
process. Field sections must be compared
with Micromine plots to ensure no errors
or omissions creep into the database.
• The field geologist will interpret/plot
his/her geology observations onto cross
sections while logging the hole in the field
before validating and transferring the
digital data to the Perth based DBA.
• Errors and/or discrepancies with
lithological logs must be rectified and
forwarded to Perth before the assay
results are received.
• Final cross sections displaying corrected
geology and assays are to be plotted and
interpreted. Depending on the target 3-D
wireframes may require construction too.
At the very least cross- sectional data must
be translated into plan view and the
relevant scaled (1:2,500 or 1:25,000)
geological interpretation be updated and
integrated in MapInfo. The project
geologist will draft any
changes/modifications required as
directed by the relevant principal geologist
/EM.
