ASX Announcement

ASX: DYL

27 September 2011

FURTHER HIGH GRADE URANIUM RESULTS FROM ONGOLO AND MS7

KEY POINTS

  • Additional high grade intercepts from RC drilling at the Ongolo Alaskite Deposit and the MS7 Prospect have been confirmed by XRF Fusion chemical assays, enhancing confidence that both areas will add significantly to the Omahola Project resource inventory.

  • At Ongolo, where JORC Resource drilling continues, results included:

  • ALAR86 10 metres at 853 ppm U3O8 from 72 metres

  • o ALAR87 30 metres at 727 ppm U3O8 from 109 metres o ALAR93 15 metres at 696 ppm U3O8 from 137 metres o ALAR407 18 metres at 429 ppm U3O8 from 41 metres

  • In addition, high grade intercepts at the MS7 Prospect included:

  • ALAR613 18 metres at 491 ppm U3O8 from 48 metres and 12 metres at 563 ppm U3O8 from 78 metres

  • o ALAR616 5 metres at 446 ppm U3O8 from 5 metres

  • The MS7 main mineralised zone has now been extended to 600 metres long and 300 metres wide with mineralisation extending to 200 metres vertical depth.

  • Further holes at Ongolo and MS7, as well as INCA FS, which also had high grade downhole gamma logging results, are still in the process of being assayed. Results will be released as soon as they are available.

  • Drilling is continuing southwest from the Ongolo deposit testing the potential that MS7 may ultimately join up with the Ongolo Alaskite Resource area.

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 additional high-grade intercepts from its ongoing drilling programmes at the Ongolo Alaskite Deposit and its satellite MS7 in Namibia.

Deep Yellow Managing Director Greg Cochran said that the ongoing success of the exploration programme in the Ongolo area boded well for the future of the company’s flagship Omahola Project.

FURTHER HIGH GRADE INTERCEPTS FROM ONGOLO AND MS7

==> picture [39 x 37] intentionally omitted <==

“In just over a month we have more than doubled MS7’s area with these high grade, wide intersections. Clearly, the possibility that MS7 may ultimately join up with Ongolo is steadily increasing. However, as a result of the success at both locations, we have decided to delay the update of the Ongolo Resource in order to continue Phase 2 drilling and also to first complete a maiden JORC compliant resource estimate for MS7.”

Ongolo Alaskite Deposit

XRF Fusion chemical assays have confirmed numerous high grade intersections (+ 5,000 GTM (grade thickness metre) U3O8) made during Phase 2 resource drilling at Ongolo. Currently DYL confirms all high grade downhole gamma results at Ongolo by XRF Fusion chemical assay before release. The RC drilling is contiguous and to the southwest of the existing Ongolo JORC Resource Area (Figure 1). Also shown in Figure 1 are + 5,000 GTM values from infill drilling within the JORC resource area to enhance confidence in the resource.

The drill programme is ongoing. The cut-off date for the next JORC Resource update was 23 September. Step-out reconnaissance drilling over two kilometres strike from Ongolo to the MS7 Prospect (Figure 2) will continue through to the summer break in mid-December. Selected significant results include:

  • ALAR86 10 metres at 853 ppm U3O8 from 72 metres and 9 metres at 824 ppm U3O8 from 127 metres

  • ALAR87 30 metres at 727 ppm U3O8 from 109 metresALAR93 15 metres at 696 ppm U3O8 from 137 metresALAR407 18 metres at 429 ppm U3O8 from 41 metres and 12 metres at 417 ppm U3O8 from 132 metres

All the latest available chemical assay results are given in Appendix 1.

MS7 Prospect

Results of RC drilling to date at the MS7 Prospect have been submitted to Coffey Mining Australia Ltd (Perth) for a maiden JORC Resource estimate which should be completed before the end of September.

Drilling has returned consistently good results with growing recognition that the geology of the prospect closely replicates the main Ongolo resource area and may, with further drilling, join up with it. From regional geology it is believed that the uranium bearing alaskites are within the Khan formation and mineralisation usually seems to be concentrated when the marble acts as an impermeable layer (Figure 3). Selected significant results include:

  • ALAR613 18 metres at 491 ppm U3O8 from 48 metres and 12 metres at 563 ppm U3O8 from 78 metres

  • ALAR616 5 metres at 446 ppm U3O8 from 5 metresALAR621 5 metres at 434 ppm U3O8 from 111 metres

All the latest chemical assay results from the MS7 Prospect are given in Appendix 2.

Future Programme

Resource and delineation drilling will continue in the Omahola Project area (see Figure 3) utilising both RC and diamond drilling. A vertical diamond hole will be drilled at MS7 for later geotechnical and metallurgical testing.

About Deep Yellow Limited

Deep Yellow Limited (DYL) is an ASX-listed, advanced stage uranium exploration Company with extensive operations in the southern African nation of Namibia and in Australia. It also has a listing on the NSX.

DYL’s primary focus is in Namibia where its operations are conducted by its 100% owned subsidiary Reptile Uranium Namibia (Pty) Ltd (RUN). Its flagship is the Omahola Project currently under Pre-Feasibility Study with concurrent resource drill-outs on the high grade Ongolo Alaskite – INCA trend.

In Australia the Company is focused on resource delineation of mid to high grade discoveries in the Mount Isa district in Queensland and also owns the Napperby Uranium Project and numerous exploration tenements in the Northern Territory.

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 .
