ASX Announcement

16 July 2014

DORAY ACQUIRES HIGHLY PROSPECTIVE GNAWEEDA PROJECT, EXPANDS NORTHERN MURCHISON FOOTPRINT

  • Doray to purchase majority interest in the Gnaweeda Gold Project, 10km from its Andy Well Gold Mine

  • Several high quality, walk-up drill targets identified for testing

  • High-grade drill intercepts from historic exploration include:

  • 3m @ 23.4g/t Au from 17 metres down hole (GNRC007 – Turnberry Prospect)

  • 10m @ 18.5g/t Au from 113 metres down hole (BN003 – Bunarra Prospect)

  • Acquisition expands Doray’s project footprint within trucking distance of Andy Well

Doray Minerals Limited ( ASX: DRM , Doray, the Company) is pleased to announce it has executed an agreement with Archean Star Resources Australia Pty Ltd (Archean Star), a subsidiary of TSX-V listed Transatlantic Mining Corporation, to purchase a majority interest in the Gnaweeda Gold Project (Gnaweeda or the Project), located in the Northern Murchison region of Western Australia. The Gnaweeda tenements are located approximately 10 kilometres south-east of Doray’s high-grade Andy Well Gold Mine (Figure 1), which is currently in production.

Gnaweeda is an advanced, high-grade exploration project with existing walk-up drill targets based on previously identified high-grade gold mineralisation. The Project tenements cover almost the entire Gnaweeda greenstone belt, the next greenstone belt east of the Meekatharra belt.

Doray’s Managing Director, Mr Allan Kelly, explained that the Project purchase significantly increased the company’s land position in the Northern Murchison and added another advanced high-grade exploration project to its project pipeline.

“A bit like Andy Well, Gnaweeda has been relatively underexplored despite some pretty exciting historical drill results. The game changer for Gnaweeda will be the ability to leverage off the existing mining and processing infrastructure at Andy Well,” Mr Kelly said.

“Doray believes that with systematic exploration, the Project could provide additional high-grade ore sources for Andy Well in the near future”.

The project tenements are subject to a series of existing Joint Venture Agreements between Archean Star, Teck Cominco Australia Pty Ltd (Teck) and Chalice Gold Mines Ltd (Chalice), whereby Archean Star has earned 100% of Teck’s interest in the Project, being an 88% interest in the two main tenements (Chalice 12%) and a 100% interest in the remainder. Teck retains a clawback right to 75% of the project in the event of the delineation of a JORC-compliant Resource in excess of one million ounces of contained gold, or, should Teck not elect to clawback, a 10% Net Profit Interest.

Doray Minerals Ltd, 16 July 2014

In consideration for Archean Star’s interest in the project tenements, Doray will make an AUD$500,000 cash payment to the Canadian company. A further AUD$500,000 payment will be payable to Archean Star upon the declaration of a JORC-compliant Mineral Resource in excess of 150,000 ounces of contained gold at Gnaweeda. Milestone payments, each of AUD$250,000, will be payable upon production increments of 50,000 ounces from the project, to a maximum of AUD$1.0 million. The Agreement remains conditional upon satisfaction of several items, including the waiving of an existing third-party first right of refusal.

The Gnaweeda Gold Project

The Gnaweeda Project covers a largely buried greenstone belt located to the east of the Meekatharra-Mt Magnet Greenstone Belt (Figure 1).

Exploration for gold mineralisation at the Project has been carried out by various companies since the mid-1980s, including Dominion Mining Ltd, Newcrest Mining Ltd, Helix Resources Ltd, Teck and Archean Star, with most explicitly targeting a stand-alone gold operation. The recent commissioning of Doray’s nearby Andy Well Gold Mine has significantly altered the strategic importance of the Gnaweeda Project. Several existing prospects have been identified and will be targeted by Doray’s exploration team in the near term, with a view to delineating potential satellite mining operations for the Andy Well project.

To date, extensive gold mineralisation has been identified by previous explorers at two main prospects:

  • Turnberry - St Annes; and

  • Bunarra.

It should be noted that, for the purposes of reporting according to the JORC Code (2012), all drill and sample data discussed are based on historic exploration records. Doray has not completed full validation of these records and this process is ongoing. Work by Doray in the next 12 months will focus on both confirming and upgrading these previously identified prospects.

Turnberry – St Annes

At the Turnberry and St Annes Prospects exploration has focused on an area where a significant and extensive supergene gold blanket is developed in the saprolite profile. Mineralisation at Turnberry is hosted within mafic schistose rocks intruded by narrow porphyry dykes, adjacent to the contact with a shale unit within what is termed the Boundary Shear Zone.

Significant historical drilling results returned from the Turnberry prospect include:

  • 3m @ 23.4g/t Au from 17mdh (GNRC007)

  • 6m @ 11.9g/t Au from 168mdh (GNRC009)

  • 3m @ 12.8g/t Au from 48mdh (GNRC003)

  • 5m @ 5.9g/t Au from 82mdh (GNRC008)

  • 14m @ 6.0g/t Au from 60mdh (GWL2-8)

Historic drilling results at Turnberry-St Annes are illustrated in Figure 2, with significant historic intercepts tabulated in Table 1.

==> picture [595 x 94] intentionally omitted <==

Doray Minerals Ltd, 16 July 2014

Doray believes that the Turnberry – St Annes prospects have not been adequately explored for deposits of a size and grade that Doray is successfully mining at the nearby Andy Well Gold Project. In addition, the most prospective zone at Turnberry, the “northern zone”, is essentially open in all directions.

Upon completion of the Sale Agreement, Doray intends to compile and validate these historic intercepts and recommence drilling to determine continuity and extensions to the known mineralisation.

Bunarra

The Bunarra Prospect area is centred around the historic Bunarra workings (Figure 3).

Gold mineralisation at Bunarra is interpreted to be almost entirely associated with quartz-tourmaline veins, arsenopyrite and pyrite (QTAP assemblage) within a gabbro host rock. Visible gold has been observed within quartz-chlorite-fluorite veins at Bunarra Central.

Significant historical drilling results returned from the Bunarra prospect include:

  • 10m @ 18.5g/t Au from 113mdh (BN003), including 4m @ 39.8g/t Au

  • 6m @ 5.9g/t Au from 30mdh (BBP11)

  • 3m @ 4.1g/t Au from 24mdh (BBP2)

Historic drilling results at Bunarra are illustrated in Figure 3, with significant historic intercepts tabulated in Table 2.

Upon completion of the Sale Agreement, Doray intends to validate these historic intercepts and test for oblique, narrow vein, high-grade gold bearing structures, similar to those currently being mined at the Andy Well Gold Project.

JORC Code 2012 Edition Summary (Table 1) – Gnaweeda Gold Project

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or
specific specialised industry 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. _
All data presented herein is historic and Doray is yet to complete a full
validation of the nature and quality of the sampling undertaken. At
present, data is taken on face value.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample
representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement
tools or systems used.
All data presented herein is historic and Doray is yet to complete a full
validation of the nature and quality of the sampling undertaken. At
present, data is taken on face value.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to
the Public Report.
All references to mineralization are taken from reports and documents
prepared by previous explorers and have been taken at face value.
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.
All data presented herein is historic and Doray is yet to complete a full
validation of the nature and quality of the sampling undertaken. At
present, data is taken on face value and is assumed to have been
performed to industry standard, with percussion samples collected on

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Mineral
tenement
and land
tenure status
Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including
agreements or material issues with third parties such as joint
ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests,
historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental
settings.
The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with
any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the
area.
Doray has reached conditional agreement to purchase the interest of
Archean Star Resources Australia Pty Ltd in the Project. This interest
entails 100% of P51/2652, E51/1419 and E51/1420, and 88% of
E51/926 and E51/927, which are in JV with Chalice Gold Mines Ltd.
Chalice are diluting from an initial 30% interest (and currently hold
12% interest) in E51/926 and E51/927 to a 0.5% NSR.
Teck Cominco retains the right to claw-back 75% of Archean Star’s
interest through the expenditure of $7.5M within 4 years upon the
discovery of 1M ozs Au. Should Teck elect not to claw-back, Teck are
entitled to a 10% NPI (Net Profit Interest).
An additional 1% NSR is payable to J.A. Bunting and Associates Pty
Ltd.
The Project is covered by Doray’s Meekatharra North Project Deed
with the Yugunga-Nya People.
No other issues are known of affecting security of tenure or
impediments to obtaining a license to operate in the area.
Exploration
done by
other parties
Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. Previous exploration has been completed on the Project by Dominion
Mining Ltd, Newcrest Mining Ltd, Helix Resources Ltd, Teck and
Archean Star. However, previous exploration has been focused on
stand-alone gold mining operations.
Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. Project scale geology consists of Archean greenstone lithologies.
These are cross cut by east-west striking Proterozoic dolerite dykes.
Mineralisation observed to date consists of shear hosted
mineralisation within mafic rocks, and quartz-tourmaline veins hosted
within gabbroic rocks.
Drill hole
Information
A summary of all information material to the understanding of the
exploration results including 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 Material and this exclusion does not detract from
the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should
_clearly explain why this is the case. _
Summary of all significant historic drillhole data is attached to this
release. These data pertain to all holes drilled that have returned a
best Au assay intercept of greater than 3m @ 2g/t Au at the
Turnberry-St Annes and Bunarra prospects.
There is additional historic reconnaissance drilling across other areas
on the Project which have not been detailed in this announcement,
due to the opinion that it is not relevant to the gold mineralisation
discussed. Doray is yet to validate and determine the effectiveness of
most of this reconnaissance drilling.
Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
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. _
No top-cuts have been applied when reporting results.
Intercepts are reported for those intervals greater than 3m @ 2.0g/t
Au, with maximum 2m internal dilution.
No repeat assays have been utilized in averaging of reported assays.
All assays are based on a historical database, and have been treated
on face value. No validation or check assaying has been carried out
by Doray.
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 not known’). _
Drilling has been undertaken on various drill orientations, and thus
does not represent true width intersections. Future work by Doray will
involve validation and re-interpretation of historic results and the
drilling of additional holes to determine the orientation of
mineralisation and thus true widths
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. _
Refer to plan attached
Balanced
reporting
Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not
practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades
and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of
Exploration Results.
All holes drilled are reported that have results greater than 3m @
2.0g/t Au (minimum 2m internal dilution) for the Turnberry-St Annes
and Bunarra prospects. Other historic drilling exists at these
prospects as illustrated in the attached plans. Other regional shallow
drilling has historically been undertaken at other areas in the Project,
but are not considered relevant to this announcement.
Other
substantive
exploration
data
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be
reported including (but not limited to): geological observations;
geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk
samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results;
bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics;
_potential deleterious or contaminating substances. _
Only regional aeromagnetic data have been collected at the project.
Doray is yet to validate the effectiveness and suitability of these
surveys.
Further work The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral
extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling).
Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions,
including the main geological interpretations and future drilling
areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive.
Doray will undertake extensive validation and field confirmation of
historic drill and sampling data at the various prospects. Once
complete, it is planned that Doray will identify targets for potential
mineralisation suitable for mining at processing at its nearby Andy
Well Project and undertake drilling programmes to test these targets.
