  • Tenement E39/2134 is already granted with exploration programs to commence immediately

Western Mines Group Ltd (WMG or Company) (ASX:WMG) is pleased to update shareholders on a proposed acquisition and significant expansion of the Mulga Tank Ni-Cu-PGE Project, on the Minigwal Greenstone Belt, in Western Australia’s Eastern Goldfields.

WMG has entered into a binding agreement to acquire 100% of neighbouring tenement E39/2134 held by Dynamic Metals (ASX:DYM), contiguous to the Company’s current Mulga Tank project area. The acquisition expands WMG’s project area to 425km[2] , covering approximately 37km strike and the entire under explored Minigwal Greenstone Belt.

The new ground contains a number of interpreted ultramafic bodies thought to represent potential komatiite channels emanating from the main Mulga Tank dunite intrusion. These interpreted ultramafic bodies have never been drill tested but are very likely extensions of the komatiite sequences drilled by WMG in the Panhandle area of the Mulga Tank Complex. WMG’s recent holes MTD016 and MTD024 and historical hole MTD006 show these komatiite sequences contain evidence for high-grade nickel sulphide mineralisation ( ASX, First Assay Results Confirm Ni-Cu-PGE Mineralisation, 15 August 2022 ) and could potentially host Kambalda-style massive nickel sulphide deposits. These komatiite channels are interpreted to extend through the new tenement E39/2134 and up into WMG’s northern tenement application E39/2299 (Figure 2).

Acquisition consideration of $20,000 cash, 100,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, 200,000 options over ordinary shares (with an exercise price of $0.60 per share, exercisable 3 years from the date of issue) and a 1% Net Smelter Royalty.

Commenting on the Mulga Tank Project, WMG Managing Director Caedmon Marriott said:

“This strategic acquisition secures the final missing piece of the Minigwal Greenstone Belt and consolidates WMG’s ownership of the Mulga Tank Ultramafic Complex. The new ground is contiguous to, and surrounded by, WMG’s tenements E39/2132 and E39/2299 and contains a number of interesting looking interpreted ultramafic bodies extending from the Panhandle area of the Mulga Tank Complex. Tenement E39/2134 is already granted so we intend to get on the ground there as soon as possible.”

MULGA TANK PROJECT OVERVIEW

The Mulga Tank Project comprises exploration licences E39/2132 and E39/2223 and exploration licence application E39/2299, covering the Minigwal Greenstone Belt, 190km east-northeast of Kalgoorlie.

The Minigwal Greenstone Belt is a NNW trending linear sequence of predominantly mafic and ultramafic lithologies; it is very under explored due to the presence of shallow sand cover.

WMG’s tenement E39/2132 contains the Mulga Tank dunite intrusion, a major ultramafic intrusion and a key feature of the area - this has been the focus of WMG’s exploration to date at the Mulga Tank Project. The Company’s tenement application E39/2299, previously acquired from Duketon Mining ( ASX, Acquisition to Expand Flagship Mulga Tank Ni-Cu-PGE Project, 8 November 2021 ) and the acquisition tenement E39/2134 contain interpreted ultramafic bodies, thought to represent extrusive komatiite channels emanating from the main Mulga Tank dunite intrusion.

Given the extensive nickel sulphide mineral system discovered by WMG within the main dunite intrusion, these interpreted komatiite channels could host significant Kambalda-style nickel sulphide mineralisation.

@westernmines westernmines Western Mines Group

Western Mines Group Ltd (ASX:WMG) is a mineral exploration company driven by the goal to create significant investment returns for our shareholders through exploration and discovery of high-value gold and nickel sulphide deposits across a portfolio of highlyprospective projects located on major mineral belts of Western Australia.

Our flagship project and current primary focus is the Mulga Tank Ni-Cu-PGE Project, a major ultramafic complex found on the under-explored Minigwal Greenstone Belt. Exploration results show significant evidence for an extensive working nickel sulphide mineral system and is considered highly prospective for Ni-Cu-PGE mineralisation.

The Company’s primary gold project is Jasper Hill, where WMG has strategically consolidated a 3km mineralised gold trend with walk-up drill targets. WMG has a diversified portfolio of other projects including Melita (Au, Cu-Pb-Zn), midway between Kookynie and Leonora in the heart of the WA Goldfields; Youanmi (Au), Pavarotti (Ni-Cu-PGE), Rock of Ages (Au), Broken Hill Bore (Au) and Pinyalling (Au, Cu, Li).
