Drilling to Commence at Viking Gold Project in WA

  • Heritage survey completed and RC drill rig secured for a 1,600m drill program

  • Several significant shallow high-grade gold intercepts from previous drilling remain untested at depth

  • The upcoming drill program will target down dip and potential down-plunge extensions to these existing oxide gold intercepts

  • Drilling expected to commence late September and will take approximately two weeks to complete with assays expected within 2-3 months

Falcon Metals Limited ( ASX: FAL ) (“ Falcon ” or “ the Company ”) advises that it is preparing to commence a 1,600m reverse circulation ( RC ) drilling program at the Company’s Viking Gold Project in Western Australia.

Falcon has the right to earn a 70% interest in the Viking Project from ASX-listed Metal Hawk Limited ( ASX:MHK ) (“ Metal Hawk ”). It is located 30km southeast of Norseman in the Northern Foreland of the Albany Fraser Province where historical exploration by previous owners returned numerous highgrade shallow oxide intercepts in aircore and limited reverse circulation / diamond drilling which is awaiting follow up work.

Significant historical results[1] that have yet to be effectively followed up include:

  • 5m @ 44.5g/t Au from 50m

  • 4m @ 15.4g/t Au from 40m

  • 3m @ 8.2g/t Au from 40m

  • 3m @ 15.3g/t Au from 28m

The RC drill rig secured by Falcon is expected to mobilise to site in late-September following heritage clearance from the Ngadju, the traditional custodians of the land where Viking is located.

The drilling program is targeting the down dip and potential down-plunge extensions to the previous high-grade intercepts.

Falcon Metals’ Managing Director Tim Markwell said:

“Falcon is delighted to be commencing drilling at its Viking Project, the first campaign at the Project since the Company listed on the ASX in December 2021. The Company’s focus to date has been on its flagship Pyramid Hill Gold Project in Victoria, but with the heritage survey clearance now granted at Viking, Falcon is able to expand its exploration activities to Western Australia.

“The Albany-Fraser province is highly prospective and the high-grade results from previous drilling at Viking present priority walk up drill targets in the same belt that hosts the multimillion-ounce Tropicana gold mine. Falcon looks forward to commencing its drilling at Viking and further expanding its work program in WA.”

Drilling to Commence at Viking

Viking is located 30km southeast of Norseman in WA, within the Dundas Nature Reserve (see Figure 1) and is held via a joint-venture arrangement with Metal Hawk. The key terms of the joint venture are as follows:

  • Initial A$1,000,000 expenditure for Falcon to earn a 51% interest within two years from the grant of the permit

  • On achieving 51% Falcon has the right, but not obligation, to earn a further 19% (70% in total) by funding an additional A$1,750,000 over 30 months

Upon completion of the earn in period, a joint venture will be formed to fund exploration on an ongoing basis.

The Albany-Fraser Province is a high-metamorphic grade terrain dominated by gneisses and reworked granitoids. It is known to host several world-class deposits including the Nova-Bollinger Nickel Mine operated by ASX-listed IGO and the Tropicana Gold Mine operated by AngloGold Ashanti (“ Anglo ”).

Following the discovery of Tropicana in 2005, Anglo stepped up its regional exploration and discovered Viking in 2011 using surface auger sampling. This work defined the four prospects at Viking, referred to as Beaker 1-4 (seeFigure 2). Anglo drilled 513 aircore holes, 14 RC holes and 20 diamond holes prior to divesting the project to Genesis Minerals which continued exploration, drilling a further 87 aircore holes and 29 RC holes until 2019 when the tenement was dropped.

Metal Hawk pegged E69/1963 in 2019 and it was granted in March 2021. This project was jointventured to Chalice Mining in 2020 and was part of the project portfolio demerged into Falcon in December 2021.

Figure 1 Location of the Viking Project

Falcon intends to focus its RC drill program at Beaker Prospects 1 and 2. Beaker 2 is the highest priority target with several high-grade aircore and limited reverse circulation drill intercepts in the oxide zone that have not had any significant follow up drilling including 5m @ 44.5g/t Au[2] from 50m depth in hole 16VKAC044 (see Figure 3). Primary mineralisation intersected to date at Viking is predominantly associated with moderately easterly dipping quartz veins with pyrite associated with shear zones.

The RC drilling at Viking is expected to commence in late September and it will take about two weeks to complete the currently planned for 1,600m.

appropriate to the minerals under
investigation, such as downhole
gamma sondes, or handheld XRF
instruments, etc.). These examples
should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures
taken to ensure sample
representivity and the appropriate
calibration of any measurement
tools or systems used.
Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to
the Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’
work has been done this would be
relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse
circulation drilling was used to
obtain 1 m samples from which3 kg
was pulverised to produce a 30 g
charge for fire assay’). In other
cases more explanation may be
required, such as where there is
coarse gold that has inherent
sampling problems. Unusual
commodities or mineralisation
types (e.g. submarine nodules) may
warrant disclosure of detailed
information.


Aircore (AC) holes were drilled to
blade refusal with samples
collected from the cyclone in single
metre intervals and laid on the
ground in rows of 10 for geological
logging. 4 m composite samples
weighing approximately 3 kg in
total were collected from the
sample piles using a scoop and
submitted for gold analysis. A 750 g
composite sample of the last metre
(or 2 m, if bottom of hole (BOH)
sample recovery is inadequate) in
each hole was collected using a
scoop and submitted for multi-
element analysis.
Reverse circulation (RC) holes were
drilled with 1 m intervals collected
from the cyclone from a cone
splitter. A variable split of approx.
1-in-8 was collected with a final
sample weighing ~3 kg. Prior to
sending to the lab, samples were
re-split into 2 m composite
samples with 1 m samples
retained.
Diamond holes were drilled using
HQ2 core in the weathered zones
reducing to NQ2 in fresh rock.
Sampling was completed on
nominal 1 m intervals. It is not
known whether half core or
quarter core was sent for assay.
It is assumed qualitative care was
taken to ensure representative
sample weights were consistent
when sampling, although no
evidence can be provided.

should be reported.
If it is not known and only the
down hole lengths are reported,
there should be a clear statement
to this effect (e.g. ‘downhole
length, true width not known’).
The relationship between gold
anomalism and true width remains
poorly constrained however a
moderate easterly dip to
mineralisation appears to be well
justified and hence, when drilling
at moderate angles to the west,
drill intercepts should be near or
close to true widths.

Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections
(with scales) and tabulations of
intercepts should be included for
any significant discovery being
reported These should include, but
not be limited to a plan view of
drillhole collar locations and
appropriate sectional views.

Balanced
reporting
Where comprehensive reporting of
all Exploration Results is not
practicable, representative
reporting of both low and high
grades and/or widths should be
practiced to avoid misleading
reporting of Exploration Results.
Only significant results above 0.5
g/t Au have been tabulated using
a maximum 4 m internal dilution.
The results are considered
representative with no intended
bias.

Other
substantive
exploration
data
Other exploration data, if
meaningful and material, should
be reported including (but not
limited to): geological
observations; geophysical survey
results; geochemical survey results;
bulk samples – size and method of
treatment; metallurgical test
results; bulk density, groundwater,
geotechnical and rock
characteristics; potential
deleterious or contaminating
substances.
Not applicable. Not applicable.
Further work The nature and scale of planned
further work (e.g. tests for lateral
extensions or depth extensions or
large-scale step-out drilling).
Diagrams clearly highlighting the
areas of possible extensions,
including the main geological
interpretations and future drilling
areas, provided this information is
not commercially sensitive.
Further RC drilling will be carried
out at the Beaker 1–3 prospects
as follow-up to the encouraging
historical intersections to date.
Drilling will target potential
down dip and/or down plunge
extensions to mineralisation
outlined to date.
