Forward Drilling Program
Monax Mining Limited ( Monax or the Company ) is pleased to announce that its maiden drilling program at the exciting Mt Ringwood Gold Project is set to commence within 4-6 weeks.
Since acquiring the project in October 2015, Monax completed three mapping and sampling trips to the project area with an array of impressive results. Out of 355 samples collected and assayed for gold, a total of 106 samples (approximately 30% of samples) reported >1 g/t of gold whilst 36 samples (approximately 10% of samples) reported >10 g/t of gold. Moreover, four rockchip samples recorded >1,000 g/t of gold at the Great Northern mining leases (see ASX Release 26 October 2015 for details).
The impressive breadth of high-grade rock chip samples confirms the project’s strong levels of prospectivity. Given that the project area is vastly underexplored and is located within historically prospective terrain, the Company is confident of a high-grade gold deposit discovery.

A 10-hole drilling program will target high grade gold veins at the project’s most prospective targets (see Figure 2 for details). Five drill-holes are planned at the Great Northern mining leases whilst three and two holes are planned at the Star of the North and Great Western mining leases respectively. The drilling program will commence upon completion of necessary regulatory approvals.
Private Placement
The Company’s maiden drilling program at Mt Ringwood will be directly funded from proceeds raised through a private placement to sophisticated investors. Monax has received funds totalling $60,000 for the issue of 12,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares. The issue price for the private placement was $0.005 per share, representing a 28.6% discount to the Company’s current share price.
Monax would like to express their thanks to the participants in the Placement for their support.
