MANGAROON GOLD REVIEW AND FURTHER CONSOLIDATION – MANGAROON 100%
HIGHLIGHTS
-
A six-month review into the high-grade gold at Mangaroon has identified significant potential in a ~40km x ~20km focus area around the Mangaroon Shear Zone - a linkage structure between the crustal scale Minga Bar and Edmund Faults. There are numerous historical workings along the >10km Shear Zone which has remarkably only seen significant drilling (34 holes) over ~200m strike at the Star of Mangaroon mine (Figure 2).
-
The historical drilling at the Star of Mangaroon includes significant (post mining) intercepts:
-
MA10: 4m @ 26.0 g/t Au from 4m
-
MA23: 2m @ 29.8 g/t Au from 19m
-
SMC07: 4m @ 18.7 g/t Au from 18m
-
MA17: 7m @ 14.3 g/t Au from 7m
-
MA43: 1m @ 53.0 g/t Au from 18m
-
SMC09: 4m @ 16.4 g/t Au from 14m
-
-
Rock chips from historical workings within the focus area include:
-
MNRK0515: 74.8 g/t Au (Diamond)
-
SM7: 121.2 g/t Au, 179 g/t Ag (Popeye)
-
TPRK05: 41.7 g/t Au (Two Peaks)
-
RNLYD048: 30.1 g/t Au, 552 g/t Ag (Popeye)
-
The Lead Gold Mine (M09/91), the last remaining mining lease within the area, has now been conditionally acquired from an unrelated third party*. Dreadnought now has 100% ownership of all significant historical workings around the Mangaroon Shear Zone. The Lead Gold Mine has never been drilled.
-
Significant ultrafine soils geochemical and stream sediment surveys are being undertaken over the focus area.
-
RC drilling will commence in August 2023 at the Star of Mangaroon, the Lead Gold Mine, Cullen’s Find, Two Peaks and Diamond following the completion of the current Resource focussed drilling at the Yin ironstones.
-
Drilling at the Yin ironstones, the C1-C7 carbonatites and metallurgical studies ongoing.
Dreadnought Resources Limited (“ Dreadnought ”) is pleased to announce that it has completed a six-month review into the high-grade gold potential, and acquired* the Lead Gold Mine, at Mangaroon in the Gascoyne Region of Western Australia.
Dreadnought’s Managing Director, Dean Tuck, commented: “The Gascoyne remains one of the most underexplored terrains, with minimal cover, in all of Western Australia. The results of this review underscores our belief that this region will continue to deliver at and near surface opportunities across a range of commodities. Having now consolidated the historical workings around the Star of Mangaroon, we are well positioned to progress a significant high grade gold opportunity to our portfolio.”

Mangaroon Gold Review
Dreadnought began the consolidation of the Mangaroon region in late 2020, initially to pursue the nickel and highgrade gold potential which had been identified by Allan McDonald, a pastoralist who owned Mangaroon Station.
The completion of the current Resource focussed drilling at the Yin ironstones provides a window of opportunity to focus on the high-grade gold opportunity at Mangaroon.
Over the past six months, Dreadnought has undertaken a review of the high-grade gold potential within the consolidated land holding. This has consisted of:
-
Review of historic, publicly available information;
-
Discussions with pastoralists and prospectors who have worked the area over the years;
-
Discussions with industry geologists who have explored the ground in the past; and
-
Acquisition of detailed magnetic data (ongoing).
This is the first-time information on the historical workings and gold occurrences from such a wide range of sources has been compiled and has resulted in highlighting the significant scale of gold mineralisation along the >10km long Mangaroon Shear Zone - a significant splay structure linking the Minga Bar and Edmund Faults. Importantly, no modern exploration has been undertaken (Figure 2). Remarkably only ~200m of drilling has been undertaken along the >10km Shear Zone.
Occurrences such as Popeye with rock chips including (SM7: 121.2 g/t Au, 179 g/t Ag and RNLYD048: 30.1 g/t Au,
==> picture [396 x 372] intentionally omitted <==
552 g/t Ag) , the recently acquired Lead Gold Mine (rock chips pending, but significant visible gold identified), Diamond Gold Mine (MNRK0515: 74.8 g/t Au) and Mitchell’s Find (RNLYD029: 16.4 g/t Au, 126 g/t Ag)* have never been drilled.

Star of Mangaroon
The Star of Mangaroon mine has been the largest historic gold producer in the Gascoyne region. Between 1960 and 1983 the mine produced 7,464 oz at an average grade of 34.8g/t Au[1] . The mine was discovered in 1956 by the local pastoralist, Allan McDonald. Most of the gold production was mined from underground with the lowest extraction level ~90m below surface.
The Two Peaks mine is located ~9kms northwest of the Star of Mangaroon. The small open pit produced ~5,000 oz at a grade of ~7.9 g/t Au[1] .
The Star of Mangaroon has received little exploration work since its discovery. Drilling undertaken in the 1990s produced significant results including:
-
MA10: 4m @ 26.0 g/t Au from 4m
-
MA23: 2m @ 29.8 g/t Au from 19m
-
SMC07: 4m @ 18.7 g/t Au from 18m
-
MA17: 7m @ 14.3 g/t Au from 7m
-
MA43: 1m @ 53.0 g/t Au from 18m
-
SMC09: 4m @ 16.4 g/t Au from 14m
The majority of historical drilling is within 50m of the surface with only one hole drilled below 100m which returned 4m @ 3.8 g/t Au from 176m (STMRC005) and highlights the potential of the lode to continue at depth (Figure 3).

Next Steps
With historical exploration in the region dominated by pastoralists and prospectors, there has been no significant modern exploration undertaken over the now consolidated land holding. All the known gold occurrences were mineralised outcrops, in an area dominated by shallow colluvial cover. There is significant opportunity for further discovery by:
-
expanding upon the known mineralisation, most of which will be drilled for the first time; and
-
deploying modern techniques to explore undercover to unlock the controlling mechanisms on mineralisation in the region.
A detailed airborne magnetic survey (100m line spacing) has been flown, with even higher resolution (50m line spacing) flown over the ~40km x ~20km focus area. Results are being received and interpretation has commenced.
Target definition focused ultrafine soil survey is currently underway over the Mangaroon Shear Zone. Additionally, target definition focused stream sediment sampling is nearly complete over the region which may result in the identification of further gold camps.
RC drilling will commence over historical workings at the Star of Mangaroon, Diamond Gold Mine, Lead Gold Mine, Two Peaks and Cullen’s Find in August 2023. A second round of drilling, to follow up on the initial program and to test any targets defined following the geophysical and geochemical surveys, is planned for November 2023.

INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS
Kimberley Ni-Cu-Au Projects
Dreadnought controls the second largest land holding in the highly prospective West Kimberley region of WA. The main project area, Tarraji-Yampi, is located only 85kms from Derby and has been locked up as a Defence Reserve since 1978.
Tarraji-Yampi presents a rare first mover opportunity with known outcropping mineralisation and historic workings from the early 1900’s which have seen no modern exploration.
Results to date indicate that there may be a related, large scale, Proterozoic Cu-Au-Ag-Bi-Sb-Co system at Tarraji-Yampi, similar to Cloncurry / Mt Isa in Queensland and Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory.
Mangaroon Ni-Cu-PGE JV & REE Au 100% Project
Mangaroon is a first mover opportunity covering ~5,300 kms located 250kms south-east of Exmouth in the vastly underexplored Gascoyne Region of WA. Part of the project is
==> picture [217 x 288] intentionally omitted <==
targeting Ni-Cu-PGE and is subject to a joint venture with First Quantum Minerals (earning up to 70%). The joint venture area contains outcropping high tenor Ni-Cu-PGE blebby sulphides at the Money Intrusion. Dreadnought’s 100% owned areas contain outcropping high-grade gold bearing quartz veins including the historic Star of Mangaroon and Diamond’s gold mines, along the Edmund and Minga Bar Faults and outcropping high-grade REE ironstones and seven carbonatite intrusions which may be the source of the regions rare earth mineralisation.
Dreadnought has delivered an initial JORC Inferred Resource over just 3kms Yin REE Ironstone Complex delivering 14.36Mt @ 1.13% TREO (30% NdPr:TREO Ratio) (ASX 28 Dec 2022 ) with an additional 40 strike kilometres still to be tested.
Bresnahan HREE and Au Project
Bresnahan is located ~125km southwest of Newman in the Ashburton Basin. The project comprises ~3,700 sq kms covering over 200kms strike along the Bresnahan Basin / Wyloo Group unconformity. Bresnahan is prospective for unconformity related heavy rare earth ( “HREE” ) deposits similar to Browns Range HREE deposits and mesothermal lode gold similar to Paulsen’s Au-Ag-Sb deposits along strike.
Prior to consolidation by Dreadnought, the Bresnahan Basin had only been explored for unconformity uranium with limited exploration for mesothermal gold. Bresnahan is a first mover opportunity to explore for unconformity HREE.
Central Yilgarn Gold, Base Metals, Critical Minerals & Iron Ore Project
Central Yilgarn is located ~190km northwest of Kalgoorlie in the Yilgarn Craton. The project comprises ~1,600 sq kms covering ~150km of strike along the majority of the Illaara, Yerilgee and Evanston greenstone belts. Central Yilgarn is prospective for typical Archean mesothermal lode gold deposits, VMS base metals, komatiite hosted nickel sulphides and critical metals including Lithium-Caesium-Tantalum.
Prior to consolidation by Dreadnought, the Central Yilgarn was predominantly held by iron ore explorers and remains highly prospective for iron ore.

JORC TABLE 1
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| Sampling techniques |
• Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. • Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. • Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. • In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
Historical Rock Chips Quality of assay data and lab techniques are unknown and should be treated as indicative. Further work will be undertaken to confirm historical prospects and mineralised occurrences. Special attention is drawn to WAMEX reports: Regional Resources 1986-1988s: WAMEX Reports A23715, 23713 Welcome Stranger Mining 1995: WAMEX Report A43137 Hallmark Gold 1996: WAMEX Report A49576 Prime Minerals 2008: WAMEX Report A79994 Fox Resources 2002: WAMEX Report A82353 Historical Drilling MA1-28 (Balde Exploration 1988: A24641): Every meter a ~2kg sample (split) was subsampled into a plastic bag via a two-tier riffle splitter. A meter was logged geologically and “the most promising drill intersections” were sent to Australian Assay Laboratories in Perth for gold determination by fire assay and a AAS finish. (it is worth noting in the geological discussion that “It was virtually impossible to distinguish the orebody from the barren biotite gneiss in rock chips” and the impact that would have on their selective sampling approach) MA29-43 Welcome Stranger Mining 1995: WAMEX Report A43137 Every meter a ~1-2kg sample (split) was subsampled into a calico bag via a three-tier riffle splitter. A four meter composite sample was made from the bulk reject material and sent to Genalysis Laboratories in Perth for determination of gold “at ppm levels” using an aqua regia digest and flame atomic absorption spectrometry (B/AAS) to determine gold values. If the 4 composite produced a gold value >0.09 g/t Au, then the 1m splits were collected and sent to Genalysis Laboratories in Perth for |

| Data spacing and distribution |
• Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. • Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied. • Whether sample compositing has been applied. |
Data spacing at this stage is not suitable for Mineral Resource Estimation. |
| Orientation of data in relation to geological structure |
• Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type. • If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed and reported if material. |
Historical Rock Chips Rock chips are inherently biased and selective in nature and should only be treated as indicative of mineralisation.

| Geology | • Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. |
The Mangaroon Project is located within Mangaroon Zone of the Gascoyne Province. The Mangaroon Project is prospective for orogenic gold, magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE mineralisation and carbonatite hosted REEs. |
| Drill hole information | • A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: oeasting and northing of the drill hole collar oelevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar odip and azimuth of the hole odown hole length and interception depth ohole length. • If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case. |
An overview of the drilling program is given within the text and tables within this document. |
| Data aggregation methods |
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. • Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high-grade results and longer lengths of low-grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. • The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
No metal equivalents are reported. |
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
• These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. • If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. • If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |
Historical Drilling All historical drilling was drilled perpendicular to the targeted structures as understood at the time. The true orientation and relationship with drilling will be determined and confirmed through further drilling. Once this work is completed then the relationship with true widths can be determined. |
| Diagrams | • Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
Refer to figures within this report. |

| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| Balanced reporting | • Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results. |
The accompanying document is a balanced report with a suitable cautionary note. |
| Other substantive exploration data |
• Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances. |
Suitable commentary of the geology encountered are given within the text of this document. |
| Further work | • The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling). • Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive. |
