ASX Symbol: CUL 31 October 2014

HIGHLIGHTS

  • The Manager of the Wyloo Iron Ore JV (Fortescue) reported the following drill intersections from the Wyloo South and Wyloo North, Bedded Iron Prospects (Cullen 49%)

  • 75m @ 61.3% Fe from 34m in WS0052 (WYLOO South) and 17m @ 55.6% Fe from 116m

  • 31m @ 60.0% Fe from 8m in WS0057

  • 58m @ 60.6% Fe from 0m in WS0058

  • 30m @ 61.0% Fe from 6m in WS0059 and

  • 66 m @ 60.3% Fe from 0m in WN0145 (WYLOO North)

  • 44 m @ 62.9% Fe from 28m in WN0146

  • The Manager of the Mt Stuart Iron Ore JV (Cullen 30%) reported drill results targeting Channel Iron Deposits including:

  • 8.0m @ 56.53% Fe from 2m in CBRC0369 (Cardo Bore);

  • 6.0m @ 55.32% Fe from surface in CWRC0530 (Catho Well); and,  6.0m @ 55.62% Fe from 6m in CWRC0531 (Catho Well)

  • At Mt Eureka, Cullen’s interpretation suggests known nickel sulphide mineralisation at “AK47” prospect and the Camelwood-Musket-Cannonball nickel sulphide mineralisation, of Rox Resources Limited, are at similar stratigraphic horizons some 25km apart - this interpretation will dictate the focus for further nickel sulphide exploration by Cullen

  • During the Quarter, Cullen initiated a Rights Issue which closed on 9 October and raised $538,700 (as announced to the ASX on 14 October 2014)

  • On 23 October 2014, Cullen provided an update to the ASX for the Mt Stuart Iron Ore Joint Venture (MSIOJV) describing the objectives and context of a revised programme and budget of $3.3m (Cullen’s share 30%) for FY 2014-2015

“MOUNT STUART IRON ORE JOINT VENTURE SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES QUARTER ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2014

HIGHLIGHTS

  • There were no significant safety incidents reported during the quarter;

  • A total of 48 RC drill holes for 1,722m were completed;

  • Native Title agreement processes continued;

  • Compliance activities were carried out in respect of mine environmental approval and licence conditions; and

  • A revised programme and budget for FY2014-15 was approved (refer to Cullen ASX announcement 23 October 2014).

Additional detail is provided hereunder

EXPLORATION

Exploration work continued targeting Channel Iron Deposits (CID) and included infill RC drilling across the Mount Stuart Iron Ore Joint Venture (MSIOJV) project area (Figure 1).

A total of 48 RC drill holes for 1,722m were completed with drilling targeting CID mineralisation formed by the alluvial and chemical deposition of iron rich sediments in palaeo-river channels. Better RC drill assays received from drilling targeting outcropping and buried CID include (≥ 5m thick):

FEASIBILITY & COMPLIANCE Environmental

Environmental compliance activities continued which included groundwater monitoring in accord with licence requirements.

A Groundwater Drawdown Monitoring Plan was submitted to the OEPA.

Land Management

Implementation of the KM Native Title Agreement continued. The finalization of the PKKP Native Title Agreement is progressing. Each of these leads to authority for grant of the Project Mining Leases.

Heritage surveys are being planned to cover areas around the Catho Well deposit required for further resource definition work, including an extension to the estimated resource area (refer Cullen ASX Announcement 23 October 2014).

WYLOO JV – Iron Ore Rights JV with Fortescue Metals Group Ltd (Fortescue) - Fortescue has earned 51% and may earn 80%, then Cullen 20% (FCI to DTM). Cullen retains 100% of Other Mineral Rights - EL08/1393, ELs 47/1154, 1649, 1650, PL 08/556 and MLA 47/1490.

The Wyloo JV project lies just south east of the MSIOJV’s Catho Well Channel Iron Deposit. Fortescue has previously provided a maiden Resource Estimate of 16.9 Mt @ 57.11% Fe , for the Wyloo South Bedded Iron deposit, classified as Inferred and JORC 2004 compliant. Further drilling has been completed during July-August 2014.

The Joint Venture Manager has reported that four holes were drilled at the Wyloo North prospect, targeting mineralisation both in the Brockman and Marra Mamba Iron Formations. At the Wyloo South prospect, twelve holes were completed targeting mineralisation in the Brockman Iron Formation (see following Table).

The Manager has reported that the results from this small programme confirm the potential for further Bedded Iron Deposits ore at both Wyloo South and North and further drilling is planned.

approximately 1 to 3 kilograms were taken from
each 1m interval and taken to a commercial
laboratory for XRF analysis.

Analytical standards were used to assist in
checking laboratory results. Field duplicates
were used to assist with determining sampling
quality at the rig. Geophysical probes were
calibrated on a regular basis using static
methods and specific calibration holes. All drill
hole locations were determined by survey
contractors.

where ‘industry standard’ work has been done
this would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse

samples from which 3kg was pulverised to
produce a 30g charge for fire assay’). In other
cases more explanation may be required, such

Reverse circulation drill holes of approximately 140mm diameter were completed using a standard face sampling hammer. All drill holes are vertical.

The quality of each sample was recorded by the logging geologist at the time of drilling and categorised as either poor, moderate or good. 91.02% of samples were recorded as good, 3.94% were recorded as moderate, 5.05% were recorded as poor and 0.00% of samples were not recorded.

No major issues with the sample collection system were identified during drilling. Minimal loss of fines was achieved through the use of an automated sample collection and splitting system.

There is assumed to be no expected relationship between sample recovery and grade

The high nickel prospectivity of Cullen’s ground is confirmed by the discovery of nickel sulphides by Rox Resources Limited (Rox) at Camelwood and Cannonball – Musket (Fisher East Project), located a few kilometres along strike to the south of Cullen’s tenement boundary (Rox ASX release, ASX: RXL of 4/9/2014 describes an updated mineral resource for their project). In early July 2014, Cullen commenced a further program of RC drilling, which had been suspended in early May due to heavy rain, and was completed on 14 July (9 holes for 1502 m, including deepening of MERC121), with the results provided to the ASX by Cullen on 4/9/2014. On-going work, as summarised in Cullen’s above mentioned announcement of 4 September 2014, has included:

  • Heritage survey completed over AK47 nickel sulphide prospect in preparation for new ground EM survey;

  • Compilation of geological and geophysical data which highlights Central Ultramafic Package and its basal contact as the high priority target stratigraphy for nickel sulphide deposits;

  • Cullen’s interpretation which suggests AK47 prospect and Camelwood-MusketCannonball mineralisation, of Rox Resources Limited, are at similar stratigraphic positions some 25km apart, and

  • Planning for three ground EM surveys (see Figures)

Cullen Resources Limited Quarterly Report for the period ending 30 September 2014

MINTER, N.S.W – Tungsten

MINTER - EL6572 - Cullen 100%

Cullen successfully applied to the NSW Trade and Investment, Regional Infrastructure and Services Department, for a grant of funds under the New Frontiers Co-operation Drilling Program. Cullen has been awarded $36,250 towards a diamond and RC drilling program it has proposed to test its Doyenwae and Orr Trigg prospects at Minter.

No exploration undertaken for the quarter.

ASHBURTON, W.A. – Gold

WYLOO DOME AREA – E08/2145, E08/2227 - Cullen 100%

Cullen‘s E08/2145 (Three Corner Bore) lies on the southern limb of the Wyloo Dome, some 35km south east of the Paulsens gold mine. On 2 October 2014 Cullen made an announcement to the ASX in regards to sampling and target generation on this tenement.

In summary, lag analyses up to 54.68% Fe identify a new iron ore target on E08/2145 with potential for a channel iron deposit (CID), and untested historic geochemical anomalies (AuAs-Sb) along a WNW structural trend within E08/2145 are considered by Cullen to be highly prospective for gold, and warrant drilling.

EASTERN GOLDFIELDS, W.A. – Gold / Nickel

KILLALOE JV– EL63/1018, 1199 and PLs Matsa Resources Limited 80%; Cullen 20% free carried interest

On the 4 and 30 September, Cullen reported to the ASX in relation to the exploration activities completed by Matsa Resources Limited (Matsa), the JV Manager. These announcements described the intersection of narrow zones of disseminated, laminated and blebby sulphides in komatiite at the “Hanging Wall Gossan” (HWG) nickel prospect.

Matsa has also reported that Stage 3 diamond drilling is completed, with the extension of 14KLDH02 targeting a conductor approximately 120m beyond original end of hole and the basal contact of komatiite at the HWG. 14KLDH05 targeted a highly conductive off-hole DHEM anomaly approximately 50m northeast of 14KLDH03. Assays and downhole surveying will follow.

In addition, Matsa recognises there is significant nickel sulphide prospectivity along the western contact of the Eastern Ultramafic Belt (see Figure above), where the western contact appears to be the southern strike extent of the basal contact of ultramafics which host the Taipan nickel sulphide discovery of Sirius Resources Limited (SIR: ASX announcement of 16 July, 2014) in their Polar Bear Project.

31 October 2014

ABOUT CULLEN : Cullen is a Perth-based minerals explorer with a multi-commodity portfolio including projects managed through a number of JVs with key partners (Fortescue, APIJV (Baosteel/AurizonAMCI/Posco), Hannans Reward, Northern Star, Matsa and Thundelarra/Lion One Metals), and a number of projects in its own right. The Company’s strategy is to identify and build targets based on data compilation, field reconnaissance and early-stage exploration (particularly geochemistry), and to pursue further testing of targets itself or farm-out opportunities to larger companies. Projects are sought for most commodities mainly in Australia but with selected consideration of overseas opportunities, currently in Scandinavia.

Information in this report may also reflect past exploration results, and Cullen’s assessment of exploration completed by past explorers, which has not been updated to comply with the JORC 2012 Code. The Company confirms it is not aware of any new information or data which materially affects the information included in this announcement.
