COCKBURN PROJECT DRILLING UPDATE

The Directors of View Resources Ltd (VRE) are pleased to announce that out of 5 holes drilled into the Orelia target all recorded significant gold intersections.

The intersections include:

  • $\bullet$ 18.80 metres at 7.67 g/t gold including 9.05 metres at 12.34 g/t gold and 6.11 m at 5.15 g/t.
  • 9 metres at 6.70 g/t gold including 3 metres at 15.73 g/t gold $\bullet$
  • 10 metres at 4.45 g/t gold $\bullet$
  • 8 metres at 4.49 g/t gold $\bullet$
  • 4.68 metres at 5.22 g/t gold

The drilling program of approximately 10,000 metres of reverse circulation and diamond drilling is aimed at increasing geological confidence in the inferred component of the Cockburn resource. The total resource is 2.33 million tonnes at 5.5g/t for 412,000 ounces if gold at a cut-off grade of 3.0 g/t with the inferred component 1.60 million tonnes at 5.5 g/t.

The deposit has 3 distinct zones known as the Calista. Orelia and Cumberland. Theses zones contain many ore lenses that have the potential to be economic using underground mining techniques if continuity of mineralisation can be established. Diagram 1 shows the location of the resource lenses in relation to the current Cockburn open pit and the conceptual underground design.

The drilling to date has focussed on the inferred component of the Calista zone with 7 diamond drill holes with RC pre-collars completed, the upper portions of the Cumberland mineralisation where 7 RC holes have been completed and the inferred component of the Orelia lenses where 5 diamond drill holes have been completed. The results reported in this announcement relate to the Orelia target with the Calista and upper Cumberland Intersections reported previously.

The latest Orelia intersections are summarised in Table 1.

Drilling is continuing to target the Orelia and Cumberland main zone and is expected to continue until mid December. At the completion of the drilling the resource will be re-estimated and mine design finalised.

  • All assays conducted by Amdel laboratories Kalgoorlie using Fire Assay method FA1 (0.01 ppm Au detection 3. limit).
    1. Downhole intersections approximate true widths.
  • Hole dips and azimuth are design only. Detailed downhole survey to be completed. 5.

* Hole to be extended following high grade intersections near end of current hole.
