CZN to Acquire High Grade Cobalt-Copper-Gold Project
- Corazon executes agreement for exclusive right to earn up to 80% of the Mt Gilmore Cobalt-Copper-Gold Project in N.S.W., Australia.
Project includes the Cobalt Ridge Prospect - an advanced high-grade cobalt project boasting:
-
Multiple drill results of +1% cobalt with copper and gold credits
-
Maximum individual 1m drill results are 3.38% cobalt, 3.18% copper and 4.92 g/t gold
-
Minimal drilling required to define resource
-
Mineralisation remains open in all directions:
-
300m strike drilled, width 50m to 120m
-
Multiple zones
-
-
Numerous undrilled geochemical anomalies
-
Project package also includes an emerging copper-gold district:
-
Five existing large scale copper-gold targets (four undrilled)
-
Multiple historic workings
-
Extensive outcropping sulphide mineralisation
-
The Mt Gilmore Cobalt-Copper-Gold Project complements Corazon’s Lynn Lake Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project in Canada.
-
$1 million placement completed primarily to fund the acquisition and exploration of the Mt Gilmore Project.
Australian mineral exploration company, Corazon Mining Limited (ASX:CZN) (“Corazon” or “the Company”), is pleased to announce it has secured the right to earn up to 80% of the Mount Gilmore Cobalt-Copper-Gold Project (“Project”) from private company Providence Gold and Minerals Pty Ltd (“Providence”).
The Project is located only 35km from the major centre of Grafton in north-eastern New South Wales (Figure 1). Project tenure includes one granted Exploration Licence (EL8379 – one year old), covering an area of approximately 25km by 15km.
The Cobalt Ridge Prospect
The high-grade nature of this cobalt mineralisation is published in historical records from shallow mining (maximum shaft depth 36.5m), reporting a maximum of 14.7% cobalt (Co) and up to 1.7 oz/ ton gold (Au). The richer mineralisation seemingly occurs in small lenses or pods within a broader zone of mineralisation.
Modern exploration within the Project commenced in the 1980’s; PanContinental completed ground IP and magnetic geophysical surveys, gridded soil geochemistry for Cu (copper), As (arsenic), Au and Co, 25 trenches (1,518.5m) and 17 RC drill holes (for 1,020.82m). This work has yet to be validated by the Company’s due diligence process and as such is not reported within.

Figure 1 – Project Location
Between 2006 and 2008, Central West Gold N.L. drilled 25 holes for 2,880 metres, including 21 holes for 2,604m at Cobalt Ridge. This work defined multiple parallel sub-vertical Co-Cu-Au sulphide lodes over a strike of 300m and width of between 50m and 120m (figures 2 and 3). Significant results from this work are presented in Table 1.
Maximum individual 1m drill results include 3.38% Co, 3.18% Co and 4.92 g/t Au. These results have been incorporated in the composite assay results reported in Table 1 below.
The Cobalt Ridge Prospect represents an advanced cobalt play with shallowly drilled Co-Cu-Au lodes that remain open along strike and at depth. With a small amount of infill and extensional drilling, the Company believes the potential exists to define a JORC resource in the short term.
Numerous undrilled regional cobalt prospects exist, including several defined by soil geochemistry and geophysics close to Cobalt Ridge (Figure 2). This style of mineralisation (Co-Cu-Au sulphides) is typically responsive to geophysics, with the Cobalt Ridge mineralisation being traced for at least an additional 100m under cover outside of existing drilling.
About Cobalt
The rechargeable battery market remains a significant driver for growth in the cobalt market, with demand in this sector up 11.7% in 2015. Cobalt is the preferred cathode element in lithium ion batteries which have the greatest energy storage capacity and are accordingly set to see a significant increase in demand. As an indicator of this growth potential, automotive related battery demand rapidly gained momentum with Chinese sales of “New Energy Vehicles” up 343% in 2015.
With traditional cobalt supply constrained and limited as a by-product of nickel and copper mining, pure cobalt projects will be seen to have a unique place in the market for end users seeking to secure their supply chain.

Mount Gilmore Copper-Gold Potential
The Project is located in the New England Orogen, a significant mineral province in Eastern Australia with a gold endowment of more the 35M ounces and the potential to host large copper-gold systems. This region hosts deposits such as the Mount Morgan Cu-Au Mine (+50Mt @ 5.9 g/t Au and 0.7% Cu) and Mt Rawdon Gold Mine (50Mt @ 0.71 g/t Au).
A prospective 18km trend (the Mt Gilmore Trend – Figure 4) has been identified within the Project. This zone includes:
-
More than 25 historic copper, gold, cobalt and iron workings, including significant shafts, adits and drives with high-grade copper and gold mineralisation (rock chips up to grades of 26.8%Cu and 9.2 g/t Au)
-
Five large scale Cu-Au targets have been defined (Figure 4).
Although mapping has identified extensive hydrothermal alteration and copper-gold mineralisation at surface, very little modern exploration has been undertaken. Aside from small-scale historic coppergold and iron mines, previous exploration has predominantly been restricted to general prospecting/ mapping, rock-chip/ grab sampling, with drilling completed at only one of the targets (the Pulganbar – Cobalt Ridge area).

| 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: oeasting and northing of the drill hole collar oelevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar odip and azimuth of the hole odown hole length and interception depth ohole 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. Drill hole collar details for 2006 to 2008 drilling by Central West Gold NL are presented in the table below. Coordinates datum reported for holes PUL18 to PUL36 was WGS84. Datum reported for holes PUL37 to PUL42 was AMG66. Reported accuracy for the WGS84 coordinates was+10m, typical of hand-held GPS’ of the vintage. |

| 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. Not applicable to this report. |
