ASX Announcement
ASX: DYL
10 April 2012
MS7 DEPOSIT DRILLING RESULTS
KEY POINTS
-
The results of XRF Fusion chemical assays on samples from intercepts made at MS7 have been received.
-
The best result, from hole ALAR966, was an outstanding 58 metres at 535 ppm U3O8 from a depth of 117 metres.
-
This was achieved in an apparent offset in the footwall contact, adding to previous similar wide intersections such as ALAR866 which returned 33 metres at 2,207 ppm U3O8 from 33 metres and 69 metres at 1,229 ppm U3O8 from 92 metres.
-
Infill resource drilling is continuing at MS7 and at Ongolo as is reconnaissance drilling southwest from Ongolo towards MS7.
Advanced stage uranium explorer Deep Yellow Limited (ASX: DYL ) is pleased to announce XRF Fusion chemical assay results from resource drilling conducted by its wholly owned subsidiary Reptile Uranium Namibia (Pty) Ltd (RUN) from the MS7 deposit area (Figure 1). The results are from the 2012 Drill Programme which commenced in mid-January.
“This is another great result from our exploration programme in Namibia” said Deep Yellow Managing Director Greg Cochran, adding: “these wide high grade intercepts to depth at MS7 give further confirmation of the deposit’s potential.”
The MS7 drill programme is designed to increase the size and confidence of the resource and test for lateral and depth extensions to previously identified high grade zones. Selected results include:
-
ALAR966 58 metres at 535 U3O8 from 117 metres
-
ALAR967 4 metres at 411 ppm U3O8 from 126 metres
MS7 Deposit
Fusion XRF chemical assays have been received for the ‘infill’ drill programme in the north-east of the MS7 deposit. The results provide continuity between ‘resource blocks’ outlined in last year’s drill programme and should serve to improve the JORC classification (Figure 2). The latest available chemical assay results from MS7 are given in Table 1 overleaf.

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 .
The wide intercept in ALAR966 of 58 metres at 535ppm U3O8 is one of several such intersections associated with an apparent off-set in the footwall marble contact as seen in the aeromagnetic data (Figure 3). Previously announced intersections in the ‘off-set area’ include:
-
ALAR781 48 metres at 418ppm U3O8 from 49 metres
-
ALAR885 9 metres at 427ppm U3O8 from 17 metres
-
ALAR886 33 metres at 2,207ppm U3O8 from 33 metres and 69 metres at 1,229ppm U3O8 from 92 metres.

Deep Yellow’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 – MS7 trend. It is also evaluating a stand-alone project for its Tubas-TRS uranium deposit utilising physical beneficiation techniques it successfully tested in 2011.
Additionally, its Shiyela Magnetite deposit, located just 45 kilometres from the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, is the subject of ongoing evaluation.
In Australia the Company owns the Napperby Uranium Project and numerous exploration tenements in the Northern Territory and in the Mount Isa District in Queensland.
