  • Core Farm weathered basement – 1m @ 8.1g/t Au from 37m.

  • Golden Orb South weathered basement – 1m @ 37.6/t Au from 41m.

  • Golden Orb South weathered basement – 3m @ 18.6g/t Au from 49m including 1m @50.5g/t Au from 49m.

  • Fugitive weathered basement – 13m @ 2.68g/t Au from 44m including 1m @ 12.1g/t Au from 49m.

One metre resampling results of the significant (≥1.0g/t Au) composite results from the Air Core drilling completed in March 2014 has returned highly anomalous gold intercepts from Core Farm, Golden Orb South and Fugitive Prospects (Figure 1), at the Company’s wholly owned Spargoville Gold Project in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia.

Highly anomalous gold results within Spargoville regional air core drilling (10 June 2014)

The Air Core drilling was completed both to the east and south East of the Golden Orb prospect and comprised 20 holes for 1,213 metres (Figure 2), in order to infill and further evaluate previously identified gold mineralised trends within previous drilling associated with interpreted contacts between felsic intrusives and ultramafic volcanics.

  • Drilling to the East of the Golden Orb prospect intersected highly anomalous results including 4m @ 13.2g/t Au from 32m (SPAC0156) and 4m @ 6.21g/t Au from 52m (SPAC0155). To date, anomalous results in drilling along the contact have been identified over a strike length of 300 metres.

  • Drilling to the south east of the Golden Orb prospect intersected anomalous (≥1.0g/t gold) results including 8m @ 2.95g/t Au from 44m (SPAC0159) and 4m @ 3.48g/t Au from 48m (SPAC0166). These results are located along strike to the south of recent RC drilling completed to the north at Golden Orb East and Core Farm prospects.

All significant (≥0.5g/t Au) results from the drilling are included in Table 1.

High grade paleochannel gold intersected in air core drilling (19 June 2014)

  • 3m @ 10.7g/t Au from 16m including 1m @ 29.0g/t Au from 16m (SPAC0204)

  • 2m @ 22.4g/t Au from 15m including 1m @ 43.5g/t Au from 15m (SPAC0261)

  • 1m @ 34.7g/t Au from 13m (SPAC0279)

  • 1m @ 14.9g/t Au from 10m (SPAC0286)

High grade gold results from close spaced air core drilling completed at the Core Farm prospect located within the Company’s wholly owned Spargoville Gold Project (Figure 1).

The programme at the Core Farm prospect comprised 165 holes for 3,021 metres (Figure 3, Table 2) of shallow, close spaced air core drilling planned to evaluate the significance and potential extent of interpreted paleochannel mineralisation intersected within previous drilling, including 2m @ 46.7g/t Au from 13m including 1m @ 92.6g/t Au from 14m and 1m @ 51.1g/t Au from 16m.

The results from the air core drilling have highlighted and confirmed significant paleochannel gold intersections over a 450 metre extent, along two separate interpreted paleochannel trends, (Figure 3). Interpretations of all results received from all completed drilling to date along the trends have indicated that either further high grade intersections within infill or extensional drilling would be required in order to see the paleochannel trends as a viable mining prospect.

Significant composite gold results from RC drilling at Spargoville (WA)

  • 5B prospect – 8m @ 6.15g/t Au from 76m including 4m @ 11.0g/t Au from 76m

  • Golden Orb South – 20m @ 1.77g/t Au from 84m including 4m @ 4.65g/t Au from 84m

  • Hilditch Gold – 4m @ 4.78g/t Au from 140m

The Company received all of the composite sample results from the reverse circulation (RC) drilling (28 holes for 3,380m) completed late in May 2014. The RC drilling was completed over 10 prospects within the Company’s wholly owned Spargoville Gold Project (Figure 1).

Whilst highly anomalous results were received from the initial four metre composite samples from the 5B, Golden Orb South and Hilditch Gold prospects, single metre split samples from the significant zones will now be collected from the relevant drill holes and analysed, in order to gain a better understanding of the distribution and tenor of gold mineralisation.

A brief summary of the highly anomalous results follows:

5B Deposit

The completed drilling was designed to confirm, further define and extend an historic Indicated and Inferred gold resource. A maximum result of 8m @ 6.15g/t Au from 76m including 4m @ 11.0g/t Au from 76m (SPRC004) was returned from drilling completed in the core of the existing gold resource. Other completed holes intersected significant gold results down dip and down plunge of previous high grade intercepts.

Golden Orb South

The completed drilling intersected a maximum anomalous result of 20m @ 1.77g/t Au from 84m including 4m @ 4.65g/t Au from 84m (SPRC011), interpreted to be associated with a mafic volcanic unit trending north south and is in contact to the east and west with felsic intrusives. The significant intercept is located down dip of interpreted supergene mineralisation intersected by previous Tychean air core drilling including 1m @ 37.6g/t Au from 41m and 1m @ 12.1g/t Au from 41m .

Hilditch Gold

The drilling was completed to test for northern and southern plunge extensions to near surface gold mineralisation within previous drilling and historical workings. The prospect is

Tychean Resources Ltd • Quarterly Report for the period ending 30 June 2014

located 10 kilometres along strike to the north of Wattle Dam. A single anomalous composite result of 4m @ 4.78g/t Au from 140m to end of hole was returned. The anomalous intercept comprises an average of two gold assays of 2.60g/t and 6.96g/t Au. The variability in the results from the sample could be a function of a potential coarse gold component, characteristic of Wattle Dam style mineralisation.

Further RC drilling is envisaged to be planned pending receipt and interpretation of results from the single metre split samples.

All significant (0.5g/t Au) results returned from the drilling are included as Table 3.

Northern Territory – Tanami Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement

Tychean has finalised terms with Ramelius Resources Limited in respect of a Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement over Tychean’s Tanami Project, a 1,700km[2] prospective land package within the Tanami Complex – Northern Territory.

Ramelius will farm-in on a package of two granted exploration licences (ELs) and six EL applications in the Northern Territory.

The tenement package, located within 100km of Newmont’s 4.5 million plus ounce Callie gold mine within the Northern Territory Tanami Complex (Figure 5) represents a unique opportunity to explore over 1,700km[2] of prospective Paleoproterozoic stratigraphy within a significant yet underexplored gold province.

Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement Terms

  • Ramelius will pay Tychean $50,000 cash upon execution of the agreement to assist Tychean facilitate the grant of the Highland Rocks and Officer Hills South exploration licences within the land package.

  • Subject to all necessary statutory and regulatory approvals plus the grant of the two Highland Rocks and Officer Hills South ELs, Ramelius will commit to a minimum exploration expenditure of $100,000 within 2 years.

  • Ramelius may earn an 85% interest in the project by exploration expenditure of $500,000 within 3 years.

  • Tychean will be free carried until a Decision to Mine at which time it may elect to contribute its interest or convert to a 1.5% NSR Royalty.

Tychean Resources Ltd • Quarterly Report for the period ending 30 June 2014

Research by Geoscience Australia* (circa 2006) included the application and interpretation of deep seismic transects throughout the Tanami region in the Northern Territory. The regional seismic transects enabled Geoscience Australia to model the crustal architecture within the province and to interpolate that known lode gold deposits within the Tanami may be associated with major crustal penetrating shear zones and antiformal thrust stacks, nested on deep seated thrusts propagating off the Proterozoic-Archaean basement detachment. Linear magnetic trends, interpreted as thrust faults, extend into the Tychean tenements (Figure 6) and may represent potential conduits for the ingress of gold mineralising fluids.

Tychean’s tenement package was originally applied for in 2010 to 2011. Ramelius will now advance exploration over the tenements within this under-explored and highly prospective gold province.

Over 80 line km of prospective structural trends are believed to exist within the Highland Rocks ELAs alone.

These trends will be the focus of detailed regolith/outcrop mapping plus rock chip sampling along with shallow vacuum and surface soil sampling programmes over the next 12 months.

Results will be reported as they become available.
