ASX Announcement

Substantial Mineralisation Intersected at Mt Carbine

210m assaying 0.11% WO3 including 20m at 0.44% WO3

Icon Resources Ltd (ASX: III) is pleased to provide the following update on the Company’s drilling activities on its 100% owned (mineral rights) Mt Carbine tungsten project in north Qld, on Granted Mining Leases 4867 & 4919 where it is targeting bulk tonnage wolframite-scheelite in sheeted quartz veins.

Five HQ size diamond drill holes totalling more than 1,300m have now been completed. These holes, testing the Iron Duke area to the NE of the old open cut mine, are part of an ongoing campaign to increase and upgrade the resources at Mt Carbine. All drilling to-date has intersected visible mineralisation.

The holes were routinely surveyed with a downhole camera and located by field GPS. All holes will be accurately surveyed at the end of the campaign. The collars of the completed drill holes are located on the accompanying figure which shows projections of the previous (legacy) drilling superimposed on a satellite image of the old pit plus shaded outlines of the historic lodes.

Assays are being carried out by X-Ray Fluorescence analysis of fused disks prepared from half cut core. Results from CB51 the first hole drilled are:-
