ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

ASX : CXO

28[th] November 2013

Focus on BHP Billiton’s Wirrda Well deposit and $2m gravity survey augurs well for Core’s neighbouring Roxby South project

HIGHLIGHTS

  • BHP’s Wirrda Well IOCG Deposit 10km from Core’s Roxby South Project

  • Core is currently identifying and prioritising IOCG drill targets from new $2m gravity survey

  • Core’s 100%-owned Roxby Project covers 400km[2] near Olympic Dam

Core Exploration Ltd (ASX:CXO) welcomes interest generated today at the SA Exploration and Mining Conference in BHP’s Wirrda Well IOCG Deposit near Core’s Roxby South Project in South Australia.

More than 600 delegates attended a presentation by BHPB titled “ Geology of the Wirrda Well IOCG Deposit”.

They were also given details of an upgrade in OZ Minerals’ Carrapateena project which remains one of Australia’s largest undeveloped mineral deposits.

Core’s Roxby South project covers a large prospective area only 10km from Wirrda Well and near BHP Billiton’s Olympic Dam mine in northern South Australia. The Roxby South tenements are located approximately 40 kilometres south of the Olympic Dam copper gold uranium mine and within 10 kilometres of the IOCGU mineralisation at the Wirrda Well and Acropolis prospects (Figure 1).

Core’s Roxby South project is one of the few independent projects covering the highly prospective geology between BHPB’s Olympic Dam mine and its Wirrda Well Project and Oz Minerals’ Carrapateena project (Figure 1).

Core also welcomes work by the South Australian and Federal governments, including a recently completed $2 million major regional geophysical survey to help fast-track exploration in the highly prospective Woomera Area region of the Gawler Craton.

Significantly for Core and the industry as a whole, this new package of geoscientific data is now available sourced from the WPA Gawler Craton Gravity Survey.

SA’s Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, The Hon Tom Koutsantonis MP, told today’s conference that the new available information just released...”should “light up the sky” – in one of the most prospective regions of the state.”

Mr Koutsantonis said the new information “will help explorers to better target an estimated $35 billion of potential developments in this region.”

This recently completed gravity survey by DMITRE and Geoscience Australia covers Core’s Roxby Project and the Company looks forward to utilising this valuable new information on the highly prospective geology on the Gawler Craton to further refine drill targets.
