QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES REPORT TO 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
The Directors of eMetals Limited (ASX:EMT)(eMetals)(Company) are pleased to submit the Quarterly Activities Report and Appendix 5B for the quarter ending 30 September 2021.
HIGHLIGHTS
- High grade gold in latest Twin Hills RC drilling with discovery hole 5m @ 23.67g/t Au from 62m
- Drilling was completed at the Poona Project which hosts the Mughal Nickel Prospect and the Raj Tantalum Prospect, with a total of 7 RC holes for 860 metres drilled.
- Samples have been submitted to the laboratory and results are pending.
TWIN HILLS GOLD PROJECT
The Twin Hills Project consists of a single granted exploration license (E29/950) located approximately 30 km north east of Menzies and 150km north of Kalgoorlie in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia. The tenement covers an area of approximately 30 km² and extends over about 10 km of strike of the greenstone sequence that hosts the excised historical Twin Hills gold mine. The tenement covers the north and south extension of the shear zone which is the interpreted host of mineralisation at Twin Hills.
The Company's initial round of RC drilling in February 2021 returned significant gold mineralisation from several holes, with previously reported best results of:
- THRC008 12m @ 0.62ppm from 40m, and 1m @ 4.10ppm from 44m, and 2m @ 2.24ppm from 49m
- THRC014 3m @ 1.97ppm from 44m
- THRC015 1m @ 4.4g/t from 32m
Based on the mineralisation discovered to date and the sparse drill spacing, EMT drilled a further 25 aircore holes (using RC hammer where appropriate) to ~40m depth and followed up the initial RC results with a further 6 RC holes for 550m drilled to test around the initial discovery holes. Refer to the ASX release dated 4 August 2021 for a list of all drill hole details.

Figure 1 Twin Hills Aircore & RC Completed in May
RC holes were sampled on a 1m basis and assayed via aqua regia digest. Aircore holes were sampled by scoop on a 4m basis and assayed via aqua regia digest.
Results
Significant results for the RC holes are reported below:
THRC018 1m @ 1.22g/t Au from 32m
THRC021 5m @ 23.67g/t Au including 1m @ 113.47g/t Au from 62m
THRC022 2m @ 0.78g/t Au from 64m
2m @ 0.84g/t Au from 88m
Significant results for the AC holes are considered to be >4m at >0.1g/t Au. These results are from composite samples and have not been resampled on a 1m basis.
THAC009 8m @ 0.31g/t Au from 52m
THAC013 4m @ 0.13g/t Au from 36m
12m @ 0.23g/t Au from 48m
THAC016 4m @ 0.12g/t Au from 56m
Results show anomalous gold in fresh amphibolite and granitoid with numerous assays reporting in excess of 100ppb Au. The high grade result in THRC021 occurs within a sheared porphyry dyke and amphibolite. The orientation of mineralization is unknown at this stage however the anomalous zone is interpreted to strike NW-SE and potentially plunge to the southeast below THAC009 (8m @ 0.31g/t Au).
Further work is required to define the orientation, continuity and depth of the high grade gold on the Project. EMT is planning a further round of infill and extensional drilling along the southern and northern extent of the mineralized zone.

POONA NICKEL AND COPPER PROJECT
The Mughal Prospect is a greenfields nickel, copper and platinum group element prospect which eMetals Limited has developed on its 90% owned Poona Project, near Cue, Western Australia.
Evidence of potential nickel sulphide mineralization has been developed from soil sampling over mafic and ultramafic rocks carried out in 2020. Soil anomalies have been defined over approximately 9 kilometres of stratigraphy, with highly coincident geochemistry up to 0.15% Ni, 240ppm Cu, 380ppm Co and 114ppb PGE’s overlying lateritised ultramafic rocks.
Mapping of the Mughal Prospect area has identified a series of gabbro, pyroxenite and olivine cumulate ultramafic rocks intruding into strongly deformed mafic metasediments ('amphibolite'). eMetals geologists interpret the arrangement of these rock types, and textures as indicative of a mafic-ultramafic intrusive complex, or 'layered intrusion' dubbed the Mindoola Bore Intrusion. This intrusion continues for ~20 kilometres along strike and is cut into three major lobes by a series of late thrusts. The majority of the intrusion is located on E20/885, as depicted in Figure 4.

The Mindoolah Bore Intrusion is assumed to dip subvertically or to the north and is composed of a marginal sequence of cumulate gabbro with a core of ultramafic rocks (pyroxenite and

peridotite) which appears to be reversely zoned, transitioning from melagabbro, pyroxenite to harzburgite-peridotite in the core.
Mineralisation in such intrusions can often form as either disseminated to matrix textured ore in the ultramafic portions or as marginal massive and semi-massive breccia dykes or remobilised massive sulphides. The latter would match the position of the Mughal EM anomaly and the former may explain the stratigraphic conductive zones noted in the MLEM survey. These are coincident with the identified Ni-Cu-Co-PGE soil anomalies.
Figure 5 Preliminary MLEM conductor, stratigraphic targets, and planned tantalite drilling at The Raj, Mughal Prospect
During the September quarter, eMetals Limited completed six reverse circulation (RC) drill holes targeting the discrete conductor identified from Moving Loop EM. Four RC holes for 681 metres were drilled at the Mughal target and 2 RC holes for 179 metres were drilled at Raj. (See Appendix One) Results will be reported as they become available with the Company experiencing laboratory delays due to industry wide activity.
THE RAJ TANTALITE PROSPECT
The Raj Prospect is a swarm of tantalite bearing pegmatites hosted within amphibolite and metasediment where previous reconnaissance results had shown a swarm of feldspar-quartz mica pegmatites up to 400m in length contained up to 0.1% Ta2O5 (see ASX release dated 12 November 2020.
GASCOYNE RARE METALS PROJECTS
No work was conducted on the Gascoyne Rare Metals Projects during the quarter.
COWALINYA REE PROJECT
No work was conducted on the Cowalinya REE Project during the quarter.
