For Immediate Release Tuesday 15 December 2015
ASX RELEASE
Diamond Drilling on EM Target Commenced at Western Gawler Craton Project
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Diamond drilling has commenced on the potential bedrock conductive target within the Atomic Cafe area at the Western Gawler Craton Project
-
Drilling should take 7-10 days to complete with results due in early 2016
-
Following completion of the Share Purchase Plan, Monax must decide whether to co-fund future exploration based on a 10% interest or dilute to a 1% NSR
Monax Mining Ltd (“Monax”) (ASX: MOX) is pleased to announce that diamond drilling has commenced on the potential bedrock conductor within the Atomic Cafe area at the Western Gawler Craton (WGC) Project.
Western Areas Limited (“WSA”) will diamond drill one hole to test the target which should take approximately 7-10 days to complete. Results from initial drilling in the area have been highly encouraging with the identification of hornblende pyroxenite/hornblendite intrusive rocks in drill hole WGA0046 (see ASX Releases 10 November 2015 & 8 December 2015).
WSA recently completed a moving in-loop electromagnetic survey along with a fixed loop electromagnetic survey over the area (see ASX Release 8 December 2015). Figures 2 and 3 summarise the results of the surveys.
The WGC Project is currently funded by WSA under a Farm-In Agreement. WSA have completed Stage 2 of the earn-in for the WGC Project by expending $1.2 million on exploration activities meaning that Monax must decide whether to form an unincorporated joint venture and co-fund exploration pro-rata (based on a 10% interest) or dilute to a 1% NSR.
Share Purchase Plan
Monax would like to remind shareholders that the Share Purchase Plan (“SPP”) is due to close on Friday, December 18 2015.
Shareholders are able to purchase a maximum of 1,500,000 shares at a price of 1 cent per share ($15,000), or a minimum of 50,000 shares at a price of 1 cent per share ($500) or intervals of 100,000 shares ($1000), 200,000 shares ($2,000), 500,000 shares ($5,000) and 1,000,000 shares ($10,000).
The SPP is a great opportunity for existing shareholders holding unmarketable parcels to increase their holdings without incurring transaction costs.
Summary
“Monax is excited that Western Areas have decided to drill the target this calendar year,” Monax Mining Managing Director, Gary Ferris, said today.
“The decision to drill this hole illustrates that the electromagnetic anomaly is a genuine target which warrants further testing,” Mr Ferris said.
“The presence of magmatic sulphides within mafic rocks in the area together with the target having a coincident gravity and magnetic anomaly is highly encouraging,” he added.
