Activities Report for the Quarter Ended 31[st] December 2020

HIGHLIGHTS

Sovereign Nickel-Copper-PGE Project, WA (Earn-In and 100% Tenement)

  • Targeted air-core drilling program scheduled to commence in the coming weeks at the Sovereign Project, which is strategically located to the north of Chalice Mining’s (ASX: CHN) Julimar PGE-nickel-copper discovery.

  • Drilling will be designed to test key Ni-Cu-PGE targets within the 6 x 7km Sovereign Magnetic Complex, where previous assaying of shallow bauxite and rock chip sampling drilling delineated multiple palladium+platinum, copper and nickel anomalies.

  • 100%-owned tenement application (EL70/5365) granted, providing broader access to explore the eastern half of the Sovereign Magnetic Complex where little to no surface exploration has been conducted.

  • Ground-based moving-loop electromagnetic (MLEM) survey partially completed over several airborne EM targets, with the survey scheduled to re-commence in February.

Wilga Downs Gold-Base Metal Project, NSW (Earn-In)

  • Diamond drilling completed at the Wilga Downs Project, located within the well-endowed Cobar Basin region.

  • All assays are pending, with first results expected in early February 2021.

  • Drilling was designed to test a strong coincident magnetic and gravity high identified beneath historical anomalous copper, lead and zinc intercepts – which exhibits several similarities to other major gold-polymetallic deposits in the region.

Greater NSW Exploration Campaign

  • First-pass Reverse Circulation and diamond drilling completed at both the Basin Creek Gold Project (100%) and Junee Copper-Gold (100%) Projects.

  • Planning now underway for follow-up drilling and Phase Two exploration across both projects.

  • Along with Wilga Downs, these projects collectively form part of DevEx’s NSW regional exploration campaign, where it continues to define a pipeline of highly prospective opportunities.

West Arnhem-Nabarlek Uranium Project, NT (100%)

  • Project-wide review underway in light of the improving uranium market – a development that continues to bode well for DevEx’s major uranium asset.

Corporate

  • Strongly supported A$8.4 million capital raise completed through a share placement at $0.23 per share.

  • The raising increases DevEx’s cash balance to ~A$11.9 million, ensuring the Company is well-funded for its accelerated exploration timetables.

1. SOVEREIGN NICKEL-COPPER-PGE PROJECT, WA (Earn-In and 100% Tenement)

The Sovereign Project is centred on the Sovereign Magnetic Complex and located between the Gonneville Ni-Cu-PGE discovery to the south, owned by Chalice Mining Limited (ASX: CHN), and the Yarawindah Brook Ni-Cu-PGE Project (Caspin Resources Limited, ASX: CPN), to the north (Figure 1).

Preparation for drilling to test several Ni-Cu-PGE targets is now well underway. These targets were identified from re-assaying of historical near-surface bauxite (duricrust) holes and rock chip sampling undertaken last Quarter which returned individual assays of up to 1,210ppm nickel (Ni), 395ppm copper (Cu) and 83ppb palladium + platinum (Pd+Pt).

Several areas, including the Kingsley, Hudson and Mackenzie anomalies, show multiple anomalous and coincident Cu and Pd+Pt with supporting Ni and Chromium (Cr) results. Air-core drilling targeting these anomalies is currently scheduled to commence in the coming weeks (Figures 2 and 3). The

==> picture [241 x 47] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [236 x 60] intentionally omitted <==

areas coincidently overlie several late-time airborne EM conductors which were identified during the Quarter.

In tandem with this planned drilling, a ground-based moving loop electromagnetic (MLEM) survey commenced during the Quarter to follow up on multiple late-time airborne EM (AEM) conductors associated with the 6km x 7km Sovereign Magnetic Complex. The survey is partially complete, having tested the K1, M2 and M3 targets, with no suitable conductors identified as yet (see ASX Announcement – 4th December 2020).

With harvesting now complete, the MLEM survey is planned to re-commence in February.

Target H1 is a priority focus due to the multiple anomalous near surface palladium + platinum (Pd+Pt) and copper (Cu) values that surround the AEM late-time conductor.

Recent work by adjacent explorers in the Julimar region (notably Chalice[4] ) has shown that widespread zones of PGE mineralisation associated with disseminated sulphides occur within the mafic-ultramafic rocks at Julimar. Given that disseminated sulphides do not usually create good conductors, targeted drilling is warranted beneath the near-surface geochemical anomalies to identify these zones.

Devex is exploring the western half of the Sovereign Magnetic Complex under an earn-in agreement with Australian Silica Quartz Group Ltd (See ASX Announcement – 1st June 2020) and also on the Company’s 100% owned adjacent Exploration Licence E70/5365 which was granted during the Quarter, adding an additional 55km[2] of granted tenure to the area and providing the Company with broader access to explore the eastern half of the Sovereign Magnetic Complex.

No prior surface exploration has taken place within this newly granted area; accordingly, the Company continues to progress land access agreements with the objective of fast-tracking reconnaissance exploration on E70/5365.

2. WILGA DOWNS GOLD BASE METAL PROJECT, NSW (Earn-In and 100% Applications)

During the Quarter, the Company drilled one diamond hole at the Wilga Downs Gold-Base Metals Project, located within the well-endowed Cobar Basin of New South Wales (Figure 4).

Assays results expected in February 2021.

The diamond drill hole (630m) was designed to test a strong coincident magnetic and gravity high, previously modelled by DevEx to lie beneath anomalous base metal intercepts from historical drilling (1970s) and proximal to the prospective fault contact between outcropping Cobar Supergroup (Devonian) and the Girilambone Group (Ordovician) (Figure 5).

This priority target is similar to those associated with other gold-polymetallic deposits in the south of the region, including Glencore’s CSA Copper Mine and other nearby mines such as the Peak and Great Cobar Copper-Gold Mines.

3. GREATER NSW EXPLORATION CAMPAIGN

Exploration drilling (Reverse Circulation and diamond) has now been completed at the 100%-owned Basin Creek Gold Project and at the nearby Junee Copper-Gold Project (Figure 6)

Figure 6: Location of the Basin Creek Project, in close proximity to the Junee Project within the Lachlan Fold Belt, NSW.

The maiden drilling program at Basin Creek was designed as a broad first-pass test of the Main Ridge Prospect. Fourteen (14) broad-spaced Reverse Circulation (RC)/diamond drill holes were designed to test for the primary controls to the gold mineralisation beneath the extensive +3.5km long gold system mapped by surface geochemistry and alteration mapping (Figure 7).

Broad-spaced drilling results have highlighted the presence of gold mineralisation proximal to the western margin of an extensive zone of silica-sericite-pyrite alteration in the centre of the Main Ridge Prospect, with assays including 4m @ 2.1g/t Au from 174m and 1m @ 6.2g/t Au from 12m in a quartz stock work veined/breccia (see ASX Announcement – 6[th] November 2020).

This western margin, interpreted to be a gold-bearing structure, has only been tested on broad drillhole spacings, and remains open to the south for +400m.

Subsequent to Quarter-end, planning continues for an expanded drill programme at the Main Ridge Prospect to test this western margin and beneath the peak gold-in-soil anomalies.

In addition to the Basin Creek Project, drilling at the nearby Junee Copper-Gold Project , targeting porphyry copper-gold style mineralisation, tested the Riversdale North, Billabong Creek and Nangus Road Prospects.

At Nangus Road, one diamond drill hole (JNDD003) was completed to a depth of 415m. The hole was designed to test a magnetic anomaly located under cover which displays similar size and magnetic amplitude to the Ordovician aged Cooba Cu-Au bearing Monzonite to the north of the Project.

Hole JNDD003 passed through approximately 100m of young, transported cover before intersecting a hornblende, magnetite and biotite-bearing monzonite intrusion with intense propylitic alteration. Geochemistry indicates that the rock is a porphyry-fertile, high-potassium intrusion. Mineralogical examinations of the most intense alteration zones indicate an assemblage of actinolite-albite-epidote in association with very fine copper minerals chalcopyrite and bornite.

Although, copper sulphide concentrations did not occur in significant concentrations to warrant reporting of copper intercepts, this assemblage of minerals suggests that at least part of the hole passed through rocks that might be considered to lie within the inner propylitic zone of a mineralised porphyry copper-gold system.

The Nangus Road magnetic anomaly extends for 2km in a northerly direction, is approximately 2km wide and lies beneath variable transported cover.

Diamond drilling of the Nangus Road magnetic anomaly (Figure 8) is partly funded by a New Frontiers Cooperative Drilling program grant awarded by the NSW Government to the Company (see ASX Announcement – 6[th] April 2020).

The Company plans to further evaluate this prospective intrusion in more detail using a combination of geophysics and air-core drilling to bedrock.

Elsewhere within the Junee Project, three RC and diamond drill holes tested the Riversdale North and Billabong Creek Prospects targeting IP chargeability anomalies associated with bedrock alteration and surface copper mineralisation. Drilling encountered dark silicified, very fine grained sediments and volcanic rocks with fine pyrite in stringer veins and fractures, along with minor quartz epidote veins with trace copper sulphides. No significant gold or base metal results were received from assay results, and the fine-grained pyrite appears to explain the chargeability anomalies.

4. WEST ARNHEM-NABARLEK PROJECT, NT (100%)

Recent increases in the spot price and a growing supply gap has resulted in an improved uranium market – a development that continues to bode well for DevEx’s West Arnhem-Nabarlek Project in the premier Alligator Rivers Uranium Province.

At the heart of the project lies the historical Nabarlek Uranium Mine, considered to be Australia's highest-grade uranium mine with previous production of 24Mlbs @ 1.84% U3O8 (Figure 9).

Accordingly, during the Quarter DevEx has ramped-up a project-wide technical review of the Company’s extensive exploration data. This work continues at pace to ensure DevEx remains well placed to benefit from future market conditions and to best determine the next steps.
