Hannans Reward Exploring for Gold & Base Metals
Hannans Completes Forrestania Acquisition & Commences Exploration
Hannans Reward Limited (Hannans, ASX:HNR) and Cullen Resources Limited (Cullen, ASX:CUL) have completed acquisition of the Stormbreaker Nickel Sulphide Project and the North Ironcap Gold Project, located in the Forrestania region of Western Australia.
Stormbreaker Project
- $\bullet$ The Stormbreaker Project is interpreted to contain over an 8 km strike length of the same ultramafic units that host Western Areas NL's Flying Fox, New Morning and Daybreak Nickel Deposits, approx. 12 kms to the south.
- All previous nickel exploration on this Project area is pre 1975 and no modern nickel exploration methods or concepts have been applied.
- Modern exploration up until late 2001 has focused on the gold potential of the Project with $\bullet$ numerous unexplained surface gold anomalies.
North Ironcap Project (Gold Rights Only)
- A review of the database for this mineralization, including some 400 drill holes, has commenced, but further assessment is required to confirm previous Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve statements.
- Current drilling does however allow the identification of higher grade targets with average grades in excess of 3g/t (length weighted average of +1 g/t composites, top cut 15g/t).
- On the basis of this drilling information, an exploration target with the potential for 120,000 to 140,000 ounces of gold is considered to exist within the 1.6km of strike drilled to date.
- The 1.6km long, well-mineralised, gossanous trend is open along strike for 1.5km and at depth.
- The documented description of the host stratigraphy to the North Ironcap gold mineralization has many similarities to the large Great Victoria (~360,000 ozs - from Sons of Gwalia Annual Report 1999) and Hercules (~200,000 ozs - from Sons of Gwalia Annual Report 2001) gold deposits, both located in the Marvel Loch district of the Forrestania Greenstone belt.
Exploration Program
- Airborne magnetics covering both the Stormbreaker and North Ironcap Projects are currently being acquired.
- A ground electromagnetic (EM) geophysics program covering the Stormbreaker Project is scheduled to commence within two weeks

Hannans Reward Exploring for Gold & Base Metals
- Environmental approvals are currently being sought to commence drilling at the North Ironcap Project.
- Data compilation and review of all relevant previous exploration results is currently taking place.
Additional Ground Applied For
Hannans and Cullen have jointly applied for an exploration licence and 7 prospecting licences in a contiguous block which adjoins the Stormbreaker tenements to the west these tenements will form part of the Joint Venture Project Area.
