Conglomerate-Hosted Gold Potential Identified on Whim Creek Tenements Immediately Adjacent to De Grey Mining Discovery

Highlights

  • New conglomerate gold targets identified next to the Whim Creek Tenement Package.

  • Venturex tenements covers the interpreted extension of the prospective stratigraphy which hosts De Grey Mining’s Loudens discovery.

  • Former Mining Lease with alluvial gold workings being amalgamated into E47/3945.

  • Venturex to continue to evaluate the conglomerate-hosted gold potential of this area.

Venturex Resources Limited (ASX: VXR) advises that, in light of the recent announcement by De Grey Mining Limited (ASX: DEG) regarding its conglomeratehosted gold discovery at the Loudens Patch prospect (see De Grey announcement 26[th] September), it has reviewed the potential of its adjoining Whim Creek tenement package (see Figure 1).

The Company can now confirm that:

  • The conglomerate-hosted gold discovery reported by De Grey at Loudens Patch (on the western side of its tenement E47/2720) immediately abuts Venturex’s tenement E47/3495;

  • Venturex’s tenement E47/3495 covers the interpreted contact between the Louden Basalt and the base of the Mallina Formation that hosts the De Grey conglomerate gold target;

  • On the Venturex tenement, this contact, which is considered highly prospective for conglomerate-hosted gold targets, based on GSWA mapping extends over a mapped strike length of approximately 6km (see Figure 1). On the Venturex tenement, the contact is largely under surficial cover.

In light of the results from the DeGrey tenement, Venturex intends to send its geological team to inspect the area and undertake sampling if warranted.

The only known gold mineralisation in the area is the Louden Patch Alluvial Mine. The workings consist of scrapings and metal detecting on or close to the contact between the Louden Basalt and Mallina Formation sediments. The former Mining Lease covering the workings was forfeited by the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation, and Safety (“Department”) on the 5[th] September 2017. On the 20[th] September the Company lodged an application to amalgate the recently forfeited tenement into E47/3495.

Going forward

Moving forward, the Company’s principal focus remains on rapidly advancing the Sulphur Springs ZincCopper Project to a development decision by completing the current drilling and testing work programme (ASX release dated 1[st] September 2017 and 19[th] September 2017) in parallel with the permitting pathway.

Without detracting from these activities, the Company will continue to advance the existing VMS targets defined within the Whim Creek Project area while also further evaluating the newly identified gold targets as part of upcoming work programmes.

The Company looks forward to updating investors on results of both the base metal and gold work programmes at Sulphur Springs as they progress.
