ASX Announcement

ASX: DYL

16 November 2011

MORE HIGH GRADE INTERCEPTS CONFIRMED AT THE MS7 DEPOSIT

KEY POINTS

  • More shallow high grade intercepts from infill and grid extension RC drilling at the MS7 Deposit have been confirmed by XRF Fusion chemical assays.

  • Selected results include these outstanding intersections:

  • ALAR764 25 metres at 405 ppm U3O8 from 66 metres

  • ALAR789 21 metres at 1,245 ppm U3O8 from 156 metres

  • ALAR795 11 metres at 686 ppm U3O8 from 45 metres

  • Additional chemical assay results will soon follow for other high grade intersections at MS7 from both RC and diamond drilling.

  • Coffey Mining (Perth) will undertake a Resource upgrade for the MS7 deposit on assay data received up to 19 November.

  • Drilling continues around MS7 and southwest from Ongolo towards MS7 testing the potential that the two deposits may ultimately join up.

Advanced stage uranium e xplorer Deep Yellow Limited (ASX: DYL ) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary Reptile Uranium Namibia (Pty) Ltd (RUN) has received chemical assay results confirming more high-grade intercepts from the ongoing drilling programme at its MS7 deposit in Namibia.

“The news from our exploration efforts at MS7 and Ongolo just keeps getting better” said Deep Yellow’s Managing Director Greg Cochran. “We are increasingly optimistic that these two deposits will lay the foundation for the ultimate development of our Omahola project, with production complimented by ore from INCA at similar grades and even higher grade material sourced from the physically beneficiated Tubas Red Sand deposit. We will be eagerly awaiting the outcome of the MS7 upgrade once Coffey has received all the results from these recent assays.”

The MS7 discovery was made in May this year and a maiden JORC compliant Inferred resource of 2.7 Mt at 400 ppm U3O8 for 2.3 Mlbs U3O8 at a 300 ppm cut-off was announced in early October. The resource was classified as Inferred as there was a large amount of chemical assay data outstanding and infill drilling was ongoing.

The latest results come from the infill drilling programme shown in Figure 1 and will be included in the next resource upgrade for MS7, anticipated by the end of November. The location of current drilling operations is shown in Figure 2.

MORE HIGH GRADE INTERCEPTS FROM MS7 DEPOSIT

MS7’s main mineralised zone extends about 600 metres along strike and is up to 300 metres wide and is open to depth below 200 metres.

A complete list of the latest chemical assay results from MS7 can be found in Appendix 1, whilst selected significant results include:

  • ALAR760 14 metres at 404 ppm U3O8 from 38 metres

  • o ALAR764 25 metres at 405 ppm U3O8 from 66 metres o ALAR769 17 metres at 502 ppm U3O8 from 156 metres o ALAR775 21 metres at 411 ppm U3O8 from 35 metres and 28 metres at 537 ppm U3O8 from 209 metres

  • ALAR776 17 metres at 405 ppm U3O8 from 102 metres

  • o ALAR789 21 metres at 1,245 ppm U3O8 from 156 metres o ALAR795 11 metres at 686 ppm U3O8 from 45 metres

The wide relatively shallow intercepts overall show good continuity section to section as well as continuity to depth.

Notes: TD is total depth of hole; U3O8 is a chemical assay by Fusion XRF. GTM is grade thickness metre and is calculated by multiplying the interval (m) x U3O8 (ppm)

Values of approximately 400 ppm U3O8 are deemed to be significant by DYL in this environment and therefore lower average values are not reported .
