EMU NL Annual General Meeting Big Targets in the Maricunga Gold Belt Encouraging Results Getting the job done

9 November 2017

==> picture [780 x 100] intentionally omitted <==

Investment proposition

EMU is an ASX listed company seeking to deliver tangible outcomes for investors from exploration. This is achieved through:

Seeking substantive mineralised systems capable of forming commercially attractive ore deposits that can be developed or exploited using existing technologies;

Reducing risk by selecting operating environments with established mining law and mining industries;

Applying best practice exploration technologies;

thus allowing investors to benefit from the considerable depth of experience of the management team, with a track record exploration success leading to new mine developments.

We are active, completing meaningful programs of work.

Established mining region

Considerable precious metal endowment

with

Meaningful exploration potential

As evidenced by

Recent substantial discoveries

  • Salares Norte (3.3Moz gold, 42.1Moz silver) discovery 2011

  • Alturas ( 5.5Moz gold ) discovery 2015

We are looking for large gold -silver deposits

==> picture [259 x 326] intentionally omitted <==

Exploration in the Maricunga and El Indio Belts have identified large precious metal (gold-silver) deposits in high sulphidation epithermal systems

  • They have distinct alteration patterns, frequently with an un-mineralised “cap”

  • There is often limited outcrop, though evidence can be found from detailed mapping of available exposures

  • They can be silver-rich

  • Geochemical surveys have been used with some success, setting drill targets

Project details

  • The Vidalita- Jotahues prospect area occurs ~120km east of the city of Copiapo in the Atacama Region of Northern Chile

  • Soil sampling by Emu NL defined a target area of dimensions > 4 X 2km, which remains open owing to the extent of the current sampling data

  • In the last field campaign we drilled three diamond drill holes which confirmed the geological environment, showing the surface geochemistry to have a local source

  • We have added to our tenement holdings, seeking prospective ground

  • We have built a team of experienced geoscientists

Encouraging Results

Alteration mapping

Landsat imagery is used to identify alteration systems. This information helps target new concessions and set programs for field investigation.

Encouraging Results

Surface geochemistry

Results of the soil sampling program from the last field season defined an extensive surface geochemical anomaly measuring > 4km x 2km

The anomaly was defined by gold and silver- as well as trace elements that are typically associated with these types of deposits

Encouraging Results

Rock chips

We have identified and sampled gold and silver- bearing rocks across the Vidalita and Jotahues tenements

Equivalence at London close 9/11/17 USD pricing 75g/t silver ≈ 1g/t gold 150g/t silver ≈ 2 g/t gold

Getting the job done

We have assembled an experienced team of geoscientists

Our field team was deployed 31 October to follow up the anomalous talus samples and the pyritiferous gold and silver bearing rocks in the north of the Jotahues tenement area

A high priority is to complete the extensive geochemical survey coverage over the Vidalita tenements to define the extent of the anomaly, map and sample available exposures

Planning and site preparation is well underway for the forthcoming drilling program

Key message

Substantive exploration program of geochemical sampling, mapping and drilling to test a large target in a highly prospective region

The results to date are consistent with the style of mineralisation sought

We have planned a 6-10,000 metre air core drill program and up to 2,000 metres of core drilling. By using a different drilling method, we aim to benefit from a more productive program.

We get things done
