KAT GAP RC DRILLING INCREASES STRIKE LENGTH TO

OVER 500 METRES.

HIGH-GRADE GOLD INTERSECTED AT DEPTH.

Highlights:

  • Kat Gap extends further along the main granite-greenstone contact with gold lode extended in strike length to over 500 metres with significant gold mineralisation intersected on the northern extension drill lines. The system is wide open with no historical RC drilling further north along strike.

  • High grade gold intercepts returned from down-dip and north along strike at Kat Gap. Better results from the most recent drilling include:

  • 3 metres grading 20.70 grams per tonne gold from 39 metres

  • 6 metres grading 4.84 grams per tonne gold from 59 metres

  • 5 metres grading 4.13 grams per tonne gold from 29 metres

  • 4 metres grading 5.85 grams per tonne gold from 18 metres

    • 8 metres grading 2.71 grams per tonne gold from 46 metres 8 metres grading 2.56 grams per tonne gold from 35 metres

    • 1 metre grading 11.70 grams per tonne gold from 24 metres

    • 1.20 metres grading 9.52 grams per tonne gold from 136.60 metres

    • 2.60 metres grading 7.68 grams per tonne gold from 142.40 metres

    • 2.53 metres grading 5.54 grams per tonne gold from 174.47 metres

  • This round of RC drilling at Kat Gap was focused primarily on testing a 100m long northly strike extension of the main granite-greenstone contact along with minimal testing of the potential downplunge projections of previous high-grade intercepts. System remains open in all directions .

  • High grades and shallow nature of the gold mineralised system on the granite-greenstone contact will enhance the economics of any future open pit mining operation.

1. INTRODUCTION

WA-focused gold exploration and development company Classic Minerals Limited (ASX. CLZ) ("Classic", or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has received assays results from its most recent RC and diamond drilling program at its Forrestania Gold Project (FGP) in Western Australia. The Company completed a total of 21 holes for 1,580m at the Kat Gap project, 7 holes for 640m at Lady Magdalene and 3 holes for 270m at Stormbreaker with the aim of improving/increasing known high-grade gold mineralisation.

Drilling results from Kat Gap continued to deliver with significant zones of gold mineralisation located on the granitegreenstone contact. Recent drilling at Kat Gap also showed that high-grade gold mineralisation projects down-plunge at depth. Kat Gap is strategically located approximately 70km south-south east of the Company’s Forrestania Gold project containing the Lady Magdalene and Lady Ada gold resources.

RC drilling at Lady Ada/Magdalene also detected several potential high-grade cross-cutting quartz lodes north of the Lady Ada open pit. Both quartz veins were intersected at shallow depths in the leached profile approximately 15-20m below surface.

Classic CEO Dean Goodwin said:

Kat Gap keeps on growing both along strike and at depth. I’m very pleased with the extended zones of oregrade gold intersections along strike to the north together with the great results we are now starting to see down dip at depth. Only a small number of deep holes have been drilled at Kat Gap to date. These new results clearly demonstrate that the system has great potential to grow not only along strike but at depth as well. The northern extension RC drilling focused on testing the granite-greenstone contact at shallow depths down to only 50m vertical below surface. If these ore-grade zones continue further north, then we could be looking at strike lengths in-excess of 600-700m.

The next stages for Kat Gap are to continue RC drilling programs extending the known mineralised zone further north and south from our current drilling area. We have neglected the southern strike potential south of the Proterozoic dyke. There is no geological reason why the gold mineralisation should be any different on the south side, we just worked on the north side because the gold grades were slightly better. The next RC program will focus not only on the northern strike but also the southern strike potential for at least 100m. If we have similar numbers south of the dyke then we could be looking at something really special with strike lengths in-excess of 800m in total. Deeper holes will also be incorporated into the next few programs to probe at depth 200-300m below existing drill coverage.

RC drilling at Lady Ada also showed great potential for further high-grade cross-cutting lodes north of the existing pit. Although the quartz lodes intersected returned relatively low-grade values, they are very significant in the fact that quartz veins intersected historically at Lady Ada at the same depth also contained low-grade values but projected down at depth forming the high-grade sapphire lode.

2. DRILLING COMPLETED AT KAT GAP

Classic drilled a total of 21 RC holes for 1,580m and 3 diamond holes for 527.55m at Kat Gap and is pleased to confirm that most holes returned gold mineralisation striking in a northwest-southeast direction. The drilling has now extended the strike coverage to over 500m with mineralisation open in all directions.

Figure 2: Kat Gap plan view showing recent and previous Classic RC drilling plus significant gold intersections.

This round of RC drilling was primarily focused on testing the main granite-greenstone contact gold zone a further 100m north of Classic’s previous drilling down to a vertical depth of only 50m below surface. Work was also focussed on infill drilling around the 40m x 20m spaced holes to seek out additional high-grade shoots north of the Proterozoic dyke. Nineteen RC holes FKGRC107 – FKGRC125 for a total of 1,380m were drilled. Gold mineralisation was encountered on the northern most drill line with no historical RC drilling conducted north of this point. Better results from these holes include:

  • 3m @ 20.70g/t Au from 39m including 1m @ 37.40g/t Au from 40m in FKGRC113.

  • • 6m @ 4.84g/t Au from 59m including 1m @ 17.50g/t Au from 59m in FKGRC114.

  • 3m @ 5.33g/t Au from 45m including 1m @ 14.00g/t Au from 47m in FKGRC115.

  • 7m @ 2.60g/t Au from 60m in FKGRC116.

  • 5m @ 4.13g/t Au from 29m including 1m @ 10.80g/t Au from 29m in FKGRC117.

  • 4m @ 5.85g/t Au from 18m including 1m @ 13.40g/t Au from 18m in FKGRC120.

  • 8m @ 2.71g/t Au from 46m and 1m @ 11.70g/t Au from 24m in FKGRC122.

  • 8m @ 2.56g/t Au from 35m in FKGRC123.

  • 11m @ 1.48g/t Au from 34m in FKGRC124.

Three diamond holes FKGDD001 – FKGDD003 for a total of 527.55m were also drilled testing beneath shallower highgrade gold mineralisation on the main granite-greenstone contact lode in the vicinity of the cross-cutting Proterozoic dyke. These deeper holes were primarily designed to gather all important lithological and structural data from the core to gain a better understanding of the controls, orientation and location of potential high-grade plunging shoots and to aid in future planning of deeper diamond and RC holes. The holes intersected narrower zones of gold mineralisation which was somewhat expected as the contact zones were steeper dipping than originally thought and shoot control and orientation is yet to be understood. Better results from these holes include:

  • 1.2m @ 9.52g/t Au from 136.60m including 0.35m @ 21.60g/t Au from 136.60m in FKGDD002

  • 2.60m @ 7.68g/t Au from 142.40m including 0.40m @ 39.20g/t Au from 142.40m in FKGDD002

  • 2.53m @ 5.54g/t Au from 174.47m including 0.53m @ 21.60g/t Au from 174.47m in FKGDD003

The diamond drilling has shown the main granite – greenstone contact was steeper dipping than the shallower high-grade thicker zones of gold mineralization intersected in previous RC drilling by Classic. The flatter dipping contact zones are clearly associated with high grade shoots which the diamond holes have missed. Where the contact is steep the gold lode tends to narrow and weaken in grade. As the contact rolls to a flatter angle both the width and grade of the gold lode generally increases. Further deep drilling is required at sufficient spacings to determine the location of these flatter dipping higher grade contact zones and their potential plunge direction.

Two RC holes FKGRC126 – FKGRC127 for a total of 200m were also completed out in the granite on a single traverse crossing a portion of the large 4.4km long auger soil anomaly located 400-600m west of the main granite-greenstone contact. They were drilled on 40m spacings and orientated in a grid east to west orientation. The holes intersected zones of anomalous gold mineralization up to 10m thick within the granite grading from 0.1-0.8g/t associated with zones of minor quartz veining, biotite and albite alteration. The best result was from FKGRC127 which returned 3m @ 1.00g/t from 92m close to the bottom of the hole. Further drilling is required to locate the source of the auger anomaly as the widths and gold grades returned from these first few holes do not explain the size and magnitude of the auger soil anomaly.

3. PREVIOUS RC DRILLING AT KAT GAP BY CLASSIC

Classic has completed 6 separate drilling campaigns at Kat Gap prior to the most recent RC drilling program. A total of 106 holes for 7,811m was completed between May 2018 and August 2019 all returning significant high-grade gold intercepts. The majority of the drilling is relatively shallow, down to approximately 60m vertical depth below surface and covered a strike length of the granite – greenstone contact of approximately 400m. The main area of drilling has been focused primarily on and adjacent to both contacts of a cross-cutting Proterozoic dyke where it intersects the main granite-greenstone contact. At this location the gold mineralisation has been significantly enriched. Better results from the first six drilling programs include:

8m @ 19.05 g/t Au from 32m including 4m @ 28.80 g/t Au in FKGRC008
12m @ 7.52 g/t Au from 39m including 2m @ 20.20 g/t Au in FKGRC006
12m @ 5.39 g/t Au from 30m including 1m @ 20.80 g/t Au in FKGRC012
10m @ 30.78 g/t Au from 28m including 2m @ 116.10 g/t Au in FKGRC018
10m @ 4.18 g/t Au from 26m including 1m @ 15.10 g/t Au in FKGRC022

9m @ 20.94 g/t Au from 123m including 1m @ 125.00 g/t Au in FKGRC095

4. FUTURE DRILLING PLANNED FOR KAT GAP

Future drilling programs at Kat Gap will focus mainly on testing the main granite – greenstone contact further north and south along strike from the current drilling area. The next RC drilling program will test the northerly and southerly extensions for another 100m along strike. RC Drilling will also probe at depth below the current shallow holes along the entire 500m of strike delineated by Classic to date.

Aircore and RC drilling programs will also be conducted out into the granite to test the large 5 km long geochemical anomaly identified in historical auger soil sampling. The initial program will focus around the cross-cutting Proterozoic dyke where high auger values were returned along with a dilational site located in the north-eastern most area of the geochemical anomaly.

Historical RC drilling at Kat Gap is mostly on 100m – 200m line spacings. There is strong potential for additional mineralisation to be identified up-dip, down-dip and along strike, both outside of and within the existing RC drill coverage.

Classic has planned follow up RC holes with drilling scheduled for mid-December.

5. DRILLING NORTH OF LADY ADA

Classic drilled 6 RC holes for 540m on one north-south oriented traverse located immediately north of the Lady Ada pit. The holes were drilled in this particular orientation in an attempt to locate east-west striking Lady Ada style high-grade cross-cutting quartz veins. Of the 6 holes completed, two intersected quartz veining in a potential east-west orientation. Both quartz veins were intersected in the leached profile at depths around 15-30m. Results were relatively low grade but expected in the leached profile. Best results were 2m @ 1.85 g/t from 27m in MARC069 and 8m @ 1.50 g/t from 80m in MARC075.

Further RC drilling is required east and west of these quartz veins and at depth to ascertain strike orientation and grade below the leached profile.

Appendix 1: JORC (2012) Table1

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

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.
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.
• The samples were taken by a RC face
sampling hammer drill. All RC holes
were sampled at one-metre intervals.
• Care was taken to control metre
delineation, and loss of fines.
• The determination of mineralisation
was done via industry standard
methods, including RC drilling, followed
by splitting, crushing and fire assaying
Drilling
techniques
Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole
hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic,
etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or
standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit or other type, whether core is
oriented and if so, by what method, etc).
• All drilling was completed using reverse
circulation method and diamond core,
using a multipurpose Hydco 450 model
rig and 6m Remet Harlsen 4 ½ inch rods.
The rig mounted Airtruck has 1150 cfm
500 psi auxiliary couples with a
hurricane 7t Booster 2400 cfm /1000 psi
booster. Core size was NQ and HQ using
standard tube.
Drill sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing core and
chip sample recoveries and results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery
and ensure representative nature of the
samples.
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.
• Recoveries from the drilling are not
known, as sample weights were not
recorded at this stage of exploration,
but visual inspection of samples in the
field indicate that recoveries were
sufficient.
• The shroud tolerance was monitored,
and metre delineation was kept in
check. Loss of fines was controlled
through mist injection.
• It is not clear whether a relationship
between recovery and grade occurs as
recovery data was not collected (e.g.
bagweights).

ASX Announcement

10 December 2019

Logging Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a level
of detail to support appropriate Mineral
Resource estimation, mining studies and
metallurgical studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in
nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc)
photography.
The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.
• Core and chips were logged to a level of
detail to support the Mineral Resource
estimation.
• Logging was qualitative in nature.
• All intersections were logged
Sub-sampling
techniques and
sample
preparation
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether
quarter, half or all core taken.
If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled,
rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or
dry.
For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness of the sample preparation
technique.
Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-
sampling stages to maximise representivity of
samples.
Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is
representative of the in situ material collected,
including for instance results for field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the
grain size of the material being sampled.
• The nature and quality of the sampling
suits the purpose, being exploration.
The laboratory preparation is standard
practice and has not been further
refined to match the ore.
• QC in the lab prep stage was limited to
taking pulp duplicates (e.g. no coarse
crush duplicates were submitted)
• The sample split sizes (4-5 kg are
regarded as more than adequate for
the nature and type of material
sampled.
• Diamond core was cut and half core
sent for analysis.
Quality of
assay data and
laboratory
tests
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the
assaying and laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered partial or
total.
For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld
XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in
determining the analysis including instrument
make and model, reading times, calibrations
factors applied and their derivation, etc.
Nature of quality control procedures adopted
(eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external
laboratory checks) and whether acceptable
levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision
have been established.
• Standard 50g fire assays with an AAS
finish were used to get assay results.
This is a total technique, and
considered appropriate for this level of
exploration.
• Quality control was carried out by
inserting blanks and standards into the
sampling chain and 5% intervals. These
all showed acceptable levels of
accuracy and precision.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
The verification of significant intersections by
either independent or alternative company
personnel.
The use of twinned holes.
Documentation of primary data, data entry
procedures, data verification, data storage
(physical and electronic) protocols.
Discuss any adjustment to assay data.
• Significant intersections have not been
validated by independent or alternative
personnel.
• No twin holes were included in this
programme, as it is not relevant to the
stage of exploration and purpose of this
drilling.
• All primary data was collected on
spread sheets which have been
validated for errors and included into
an Access database.
• Assaydata has not been adjusted

Location of
data points
Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate
drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys),
trenches, mine workings and other locations
used in Mineral Resource estimation.
Specification of the grid system used.
Quality and adequacy of topographic control.
• Drill hole locations were determined by
GPS in the field in UTM zone 50.
• Topographic control is available
through a detailed satellite-derived
DTM.
Data spacing
and
distribution
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration
Results.
Whether the data spacing and distribution is
sufficient to establish the degree of geological
and grade continuity appropriate for the
Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation
procedure(s) and classifications applied.
Whether sample compositing has been applied.
• Holes were not drilled on a pattern and
there was no specific drill hole spacing.
In general holes are drilled within 50m
from previous intersections.
• The data spacing is considered sufficient
to demonstrate geological and grade
continuity for estimation procedures.
• Samples were not composited.
Orientation of
data in relation
to geological
structure
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves
unbiased sampling of possible structures and
the extent to which this is known, considering
the deposit type.
If the relationship between the drilling
orientation and the orientation of key
mineralised structures is considered to have
introduced a sampling bias, this should be
assessed and reported if material.
• The orientation of sampling has
achieved unbiased sampling of
structures, with drilling perpendicular
to the dip and strike of the mineralised
zones
• The relationship between the drilling
orientation and the orientation of key
mineralised structures is not considered
to have introduced a samplingbias.
Sample
security
The measures taken to ensure sample security. • Samples were immediately dispatched
to the laboratory and have at all times
been in possession of CLM or its
designated contractors. Chain of custody
was maintained throughout.
Audits or
reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data
• No audits of any of the data have been
carried out.

• Lady Lila is situated upon 100% owned
CLZ tenements P77/4325 and
P77/4326 (details in announcement
dated 21 March 2017)
• Kat Gap is situated upon E74/467, held
by Sulphide Resources Pty Ltd. CLZ
acquired 100% of these tenements in
January 2019 (details in
announcement dated 9th Jan 2019)
Exploration done
by other parties
• Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by
other parties.
• All exploration was carried out by
previous owners of the tenements
(Aztec Mining, Forrestania Gold NL,
Viceroy Australia, Sons of Gwalia,
Sulphide Resources PtyLtd)
Geology • Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.
• The deposit is a Archean shear-zone
hosted gold deposit.
• Geological interpretation indicates
that the general stratigraphy consists
of metasediments, BIF’s and cherts to
the east of the tenement, overlying an
older sequence of metamorphosed
komatiitic and high-magnesian basalts
to the west. Black shales/pelites occur
as small interbedded units throughout
the stratigraphy, which dips gently to
the east (10-35°) and strikes N-S,
bending in a NNW direction in the far
north of the tenement.
• An Archaean-aged quartz dolerite unit
(informally the ‘Wattle Rocks Dolerite’)
is emplaced along a contact between
high-MgO basalt to the west and low-
MgO ultramafic to the east, in the
western part of the tenement and is
the host rock for the Lady Ada (and
Lady Magdalene) mineralisation.
Strongly magnetic Proterozoic dolerite
dykes cross-cut the stratigraphy in an
east-west direction, splaying to the
ENE, following fault directions
interpreted from the aeromagnetics. A
number of narrow shear zones lie
subparallel to the shallow-dipping

metasediment-mafic contact within
the host stratigraphy and are
important sites and conduits for the
observed mineralisation. The Sapphire
shear zone strikes approximately ENE,
dipping to the SE at about 25°, and
appears to crosscut all lithologies. This
shear zone and associated shears host
the bulk of the gold mineralisation at
Wattle Rocks. Similar flat-dipping
shears are known to crosscut the Lady
Magdalene area. Approximately 8-12
metres of transported sands and a
gold depleted weathering profile of
saprolitic clays overly the Lady Ada and
Lady Magdalene mineralisation.
• Structurally, the Wattle Rocks area is
quite complex and is positioned near
the intersection of several major
breakages and flexures in the regional
stratigraphy in this part of the
Forrestania Greenstone belt.
Numerous shear zones are evident
throughout the area, particularly at
changes of rock stratigraphy where
there are rheological differences.
Narrow, stacked, flat-dipping shear
zones are evident within the quartz
dolerite unit and may have resulted
from thrusting of the younger
sedimentary sequence over the mafic
package from east to west. A similar
model is predicted for Van Uden (10
km northwards) where mineralised
quartz veins appear to ‘stack’ through
a host ferruginous metasediment.
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 clearlyexplain whythis is the case.
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 clearlystated.
• High grades were not cut in the
reporting of weighted averages in this
Report.
• Summary drill hole results as reported
in figures and in the appendix 2 to this
Report are reported on a 2m internal
dilution and 0.5 g/t Au cuto-off.
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’).
• In almost all cases, the drill holes are
perpendicular to the mineralisation.
The true width is not expected to
deviate much from intersection width.
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.
• Appropriate images have been
provided in the Report.
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 misleadingreportingof Exploration Results.
• Figures represent specific selected drill
intervals to demonstrate the general
trend of high grade trends. Cross
sections show all relevant result in a
balanced way.
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
contaminatingsubstances.

No other relevant data is reported
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 commerciallysensitive.
• Further RC drilling is being considered.
• Figures clearly demonstrate the areas
of possible extensions
