Lookout Rocks – First diamond hole intersects copper
- First diamond drill hole successfully intersected zones of disseminated copper sulphide mineralisation, up to 1% Cu
Mineralisation is hosted by black, reduced carbonaceous sediments, located directly above an oxidised “red bed” stratigraphic unit

Zambian copper-belt analogous
-
Stratigraphic contact focusing the copper-cobalt mineralisation is relatively flat and extends laterally
-

Two diamond drill rigs currently operating at Yeneena/Telfer West
-
Millennium Zinc Project - 1,500-2,000m diamond drill program primarily designed to test for high grade zinc mineralisation at the base of a thickened mineralised shale package – First assays Dec 2016
-
Telfer West Gold Project - Diamond drilling will focus on the Egg Prospect which contains several areas of high grade gold within a substantial volume of stockwork style gold mineralisation and where a recent surface rock chip program returned up to 61.4g/t gold. First assays Dec 2016
-
Lookout Rocks South Copper - The first follow up drilling since the successful intersection of narrow zones of disseminated copper sulphide mineralisation, up to 1% Cu, at the targeted first reductant position in June 2016
-
Aria IOCG Copper Target - Drill hole EPT2276 will be extended to test for the source of the discrete gravity and magnetic anomalies and for potentially stronger concentrations of copper mineralisation. First assays Dec 2016
-
BM7 Copper-Cobalt Target - RC program to test for continuity of the copper-cobalt mineralisation intersected in aircore hole EPT1667 (9m @ 1.54% Cu and 1.0% Co from 42m to EOH). Assays Dec 2016

The Investment Case
-
Under-cover frontier exploration to create enduring value
-
Exposure to large scale exploration upside in copper, zinc and gold
-
Large land position in district with proven fertility and active majors (2000km[2] )
-
Risk sharing at appropriate points to maximise return for ENR shareholders
-
Leading global resources funds on register (Sprott, RCF, Thorney, Eye Investment Fund)
-
Sound cash position
-
EDI (Exploration Development Incentive) - exploration credits to be distributed to shareholders
-
Drilling to test advanced exploration targets
