Cosmos Expands Orange East Project with Key Acquisition Next to +2Moz McPhillamys Gold Project

Strategic acquisition doubles its footprint in the Lachlan Fold Belt ahead of the start of exploration activities later this year

Highlights:

  • Key acquisition adjacent to the Company’s Orange East Project and along strike from the +2Moz McPhillamys Gold Project in the Lachlan Fold Belt of NSW.

  • The project is highly prospective for orogenic gold, porphyry-related copper-gold and volcanichosted massive sulphide (VHMS) type deposits

  • The acquisition more than doubles the Company’s presence in the region.

Cosmos Exploration (ASX: C1X) (“Cosmos” or “the Company”) is pleased to advise that it has significantly expanded its exploration footprint in the world-class Lachlan Fold Belt in NSW after entering into a binding term sheet to acquire an adjoining ground package to the south of its Orange East Project.

The Company has agreed to acquire an 80% interest in adjoining tenements (EL 8807 and EL 6378), located immediately south of its Orange East and directly along strike from Regis Resources NL’s +2Moz McPhillamys gold deposit (Figure 1).

The tenements contain extensions of the mineralised Godolphin fault (Figure 2) and the Anson formation (McPhillamys host sequence) and remain under-explored given the location along strike from McPhillamys.

The project is highly prospective for orogenic gold, porphyry-related copper-gold and volcanic-hosted massive sulphide (VHMS) type deposits. The acquisition more than doubles the Company’s presence in the region and will become part of an expanded exploration program in the coming months and years.

Cosmos Exploration Executive Chairman , Jeremy Robinson said :

We are pleased to have expanded our position in this highly prospective region along strike from the very large McPhillamys Gold Project, and we look forward to getting on the ground in the coming months to do this project justice.”
