Since the last exploration update on April 28 2016, Focus has undertaken an aggressive brownfields exploration programme at Coolgardie focussed on Bonnie Vale and the Greater Tindals District. This work was designed to test and refine Focus’ understanding of several high-priority exploration targets and to provide information required for an update to Bonnie Vale’s Mineral Resource update.
-
RC and Diamond Drilling at Bonnie Vale (35 RC holes completed for 9,484m; three diamond tails completed for 926.5m).
-
The Company is currently re-assessing Mineral Resource update, this work is planned for completion in October.
-
RC Drilling within the Greater Tindals District (30 RC holes completed for 3,653m this year).
Drill results have been encouraging at both Bonnie Vale and Greater Tindals. Highlights from current and recent activities are presented below and a map of the locations referred to is presented in Figure 1.

test for down-dip and along-strike continuation of the Quarry Reef lode system with the aim to expand the Mineral Resource. Drill results from Bonnie Vale are very encouraging and include:
-
BONC127 1m @ 6.28g/t Au from 72m
-
BONC128 1m @ 5.10g/t Au from 51m and 1m @ 5.57g/t Au from 268m
-

-
BONC133 1m @ 6.47g/t Au from 127m
-
BONC134 2m @ 45.63g/t Au from 91m and 1m @23.9g/t Au from 146m and 1m @58.70g/t Au from 203m
-
BONC136 2m @ 22.25g/t Au from 203m
-
BONC139 2m @6.76g/t Au from 102m
-

-
BONC151 1m @ 6.10g/t Au from 271m
-
BONC153 3m @ 25.07g/t Au from 268m
-
BONC158 4m @ 9.60g/t Au from 214m
-
BONC159 2m @ 7.81ppm from 264m
-
BONCD071 2.31m @ 5.60 g/t from 439.91m
These results show the high grade mineralization continuity to the north-west down-dip and also demonstrate the potential to define new high grade mineralisation lodes at both hanging wall and foot wall of the existing mineral resources zone (Figures 3 to 6).
The company is currently working on resources modelling and interpretation of mineralisation trend delineated in recent drilling. The updated Mineral Resource is expected to be completed in October. Additional drilling will be also planned to follow up on the potential new high grade mineralised lodes.

Greater Tindals Drill Programme
Since the last exploration update, a total of 30 RC holes (3,653m) and two diamond holes (1,044m) were completed within the Greater Tindals District (Brilliant; 2,300m RC: Possum; 1,044m Diamond: Garden Gully; 903m RC: Tindals West; 450m RC). The Greater Tindals District programme was in line with the current exploration strategy of expanding known Mineral Resources and testing under-explored areas within the area.
Empress-Perseverance Trend
Assay results have been received from the Empress-Perseverance trend RC drill programme previously reported (25 RC holes, 5,134m). This programme was designed to test for near-surface extensions to known lode mineralisation identified in earlier underground mining and exploration activities. Drill density and patterns are not sufficient to provide a Mineral Resource update for these project areas, however the results were generally encouraging and lode mineralisation was identified along strike and up/down dip as anticipated. Significant results from this programme include:
-
TND16044 3m @ 8.17g/t Au from 32m and 2m @ 4.77g/t Au from 103m
-
TND16050 1m @ 5.68g/t Au from 198m
-
TND16051 5m @ 3.85g/t Au from 239m
-
TND16060 1m @ 7.45g/t Au from 223m
-
TND16063 3m @ 7.27g/t Au from 60m
-
TND16064 1m @ 7.42g/t Au from 61m
Brilliant
At Brilliant, final results were received from the previously-reported diamond drill programme and an additional 16 RC holes have been completed to the northeast and south of the open pit. 13 RC holes completed to the northeast of the open pit were designed to test for lode extensions with the aim of upgrading the resource model in this area to potentially support additional open pit mining at Brilliant. This RC programme successfully identified lode extensions as anticipated. Significant results from Brilliant include:

-
TND16032 (diamond tail) 0.92m @ 4.95g/t Au from 276.46m
-
TND16034 (diamond tail) 3.58m @ 5.75g/t Au from 302m
-
TND16090 5m @ 3.87g/ Au from 135m
-
TND16091 1m @ 4.12g/t Au from 146m and 1m @ 4.55g/t Au from 151m
-
TND16092 4m @ 2.75g/t Au from 182m and 2m @ 3.99g/t Au from 196m
Possum
At Possum, two diamond holes were completed for 1,044m to better define the controls on mineralisation at Possum. Both holes were drilled to cross the entire known mineralised system with one going east to west and the other going from west to east. Both holes provided additional information on the mineralisation controls at Possum and the information has helped refine the design of the follow-up RC programme. Significant results from the diamond programme include 0.7m @ 11.35g/t Au from 301.75m in hold TND16066.
Garden Gully and Tindals West
Thirteen RC holes (1,353m) were completed at Garden Gully and Tindals West as part of the planned regional exploration programme. Drilling at Garden Gully was designed to test for nearsurface lode extensions at the historic mining centre and drilling at Tindals West tested several conceptual structural targets in an under-explored part of the Greater Tindals District. Significant results from this programme include TND16075 which intercepted 1m @ 8.29g/t Au from 63m and 1m @ 10.75g/t Au from 70m and 1m @ 12.05g/t Au from 204m
Forward Programme
Drilling at Coolgardie is ongoing and is anticipated to continue for the remainder of the year. Approximately 19,000m of RC drilling is planned for the remainder of the year at Coolgardie, including infill RC drilling at Possum, exploration RC drilling at Possum and Brilliant, follow-up RC drilling testing conceptual targets identified from the 2D seismic survey completed earlier this year and a regional exploration programme throughout the Coolgardie area. Focus anticipates updating the market later this year on these programmes and plans to have a resource update for Possum by the end of the year.

Laverton Operational Update
Exploration
Drilling has recommenced on the Karridale Project. Reverse circulation (RC) drilling was suspended in April due to abnormally wet weather conditions restricting equipment access. With improved conditions on site drilling has started on an RC drill programme estimated to include 62 holes for approximately 16,850m.
As with the earlier RC drill programme, the current phase is designed to:
-
Resolve gold grade plunge distribution down dip from Karridale;
-
Resolve gold grade distribution around the Boomerang mine in order to in the area;
-
Confirm gold grade continuity between the Karridale and Boomerang sites; and
-
Pick up the near surface positions of intermediate gold zones that are interpreted to sit between Karridale and Boomerang.
As previously announced (ASX 29 April 2016), drilling to date has confirmed that gold mineralisation at Karridale is primarily associated with multiple, stacked, shear zones, flatly dipping to the northwest. Also, the deeper mineralisation under Karridale (such as in hole KARD154) appears to be the down dip extension of mineralisation of the Boomerang mine some 600m to the southeast.
Drilling is expected to be completed in November 2016.
Possible Divestment of Jasper Hills
Focus is in discussions with multiple parties around the possible sale of the Focus’ Jasper Hill Project. Jasper Hills is a small package of four mining leases totaling around 29km[2] , located 85 km southeast of Laverton. Its size, location, and modest Mineral Resource of 156koz Au averaging 1.8g/t Au mean Jasper Hills is a low exploration priority and is unlikely to contribute towards a restart of operations at Focus’ Laverton Gold Project.

JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1 report Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data (Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
| CRITERIA | COMMENTARY |
|---|---|
| Coolgardie Gold Project |
This report relates to results for Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling and Diamond core drilling of Focus Minerals Coolgardie Project area. RC percussion drill chips were collected through a cyclone and cone splitter. Samples were collected on a 1m basis. In total 65 holes were drilled for 13,137 m of RC and 1970.5m of diamond core. Core was sampled across identified zones of mineralisation by site geologists. Diamond core sample widths varied between a minimum of 0.2m and a maximum of 1m. |
| RC chips were passed through a cone splitter to achieve a sample weight of approximately 3kg. The splitter was levelled at the beginning of each hole using a bullseye level. At the assay laboratory all samples were oven dried, crushed to a nominal 10mm using a jaw crusher (core samples only) and weighed. Samples in excess of 3kg in weight were riffle split to achieve a maximum 3kg sample weight before being pulverized to 90% passing 75µm. The samples were thenprepared for fire assay. |
|
| When visible gold was observed in RC chips, this sample was then flagged by the supervising geologist for the benefit of the laboratory. The diamond core was marked up for sampling by the supervising geologist during the core logging process, with sample intervals determined by the presence of mineralisation and/or alteration. The core was cut in half using an Almonte automatic core saw, with half-core samples submitted to Kalgoorlie assaylaboratories for fire assayanalysis bya 50gcharge AAS finish. |
|
| Drilling techniques | All RC drilling was completed using a face sampling hammer. The diamond drilling was completed by NQ2/HQ size diamond core. All holes were surveyed upon completion of drilling using a north-seeking gyroscope and all holes were surveyed open-hole. All drill core was oriented by the drilling contractor using an Ezy-mark system. |
| Sample recovery was recorded by a visual estimate during the logging process. |

| Drill sample recovery |
All samples were drilled dry whenever possible to maximize recovery, with water injection on the outside return to minimise dust. |
|---|---|
| Study of sample recovery versus gold grade does not indicate a bias in the gold grade caused by any drop in sample recovery. |
|
| Logging | The core samples were oriented, marked into metre intervals and compared to the depth measurements on the core blocks. Any loss of core was noted and recorded in the drilling database. All RC samples were geologically logged to record weathering, regolith, rock type, colour, alteration, mineralisation, structure and texture and any other notable features that are present. The logging information was recorded into acQuire format using a Toughbook notepad and then transferred into the company’s drillingdatabase once the logwas complete. |
| Logging was qualitative, however the geologists often recorded quantitative mineral percentage ranges for the sulphide minerals present. Samples from RC holes were archived in standard 20m plastic chip trays. |
|
| The entire length of all holes are logged. | |
| Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation |
Core samples were taken from half core, cut using an Almonte automatic core saw. The remainder of the core was retained in core trays tagged with a hole number and metre mark. |
| RC samples were cone split to a nominal 2.5kg to 3kg sample weight. The drilling method was designed to maximise sample recovery and delivery of a clean, representative sample into the calico bag. Where possible all RC samples were drilled dry to maximise recovery. The use of a booster and auxiliary compressor provide dry sample for depths below the water table. Sample condition was recorded (wet, dry or damp) at the time of sampling and recorded in the database. |
|
| The samples were collected in a pre-numbered calico bag bearing a unique sample ID. Samples were crushed to 75µm at the laboratory and riffle split (if required) to a maximum 3kg sample weight. Gold analysis was determined by a 30g or 50g fire assay with an AAS Finish with detection limits between 0.01 and 100 ppm Au. |
|
| The assay laboratories’ sample preparation procedures follow industry best practice, with techniques and practices that are appropriate for this style of mineralisation. Pulp duplicates were taken at the pulverising stage and selective repeats conducted at the laboratories’ discretion. |
|
| For all the drilling projects other than Bonnie Vale FML inserts 3 standards and takes 5 duplicates for every 100 samples for RC drilling. For Bonnie Vale RC drilling FML inserts 4 standards and selects about 20% mineralized samples (>1 g/t) to re-analyse for the gold using the residual pulps. Field duplicates were collected from the cone splitter on the rig for RC samples at a frequency of one duplicate every 20 samples. Regular reviews of the sampling were carried out by the supervising geologist and senior field staff,to ensure allprocedures were followed and best industry practice carried out. |
|
| The sample sizes were considered to be appropriate for the type, style and consistency of mineralisation encountered duringthisphase of exploration. |
|
| The assay method and laboratory procedures were appropriate for this style of mineralisation. The fire assay technique was designed to measure total gold in the sample. |
|
| Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
The assay method and laboratory procedures were appropriate for this style of mineralisation. The fire assay technique was designed to measure total gold in the sample. |
| No geophysical tools, spectrometers or handheld XRF instruments were used on drill samples. |

| The QA/QC process described above was sufficient to establish acceptable levels of accuracy and precision. All results from assay standards and duplicates were scrutinised to ensure they fell within acceptable tolerances. |
|
|---|---|
| Verification of sampling and assaying |
Significant intervals were visually inspected by company geologists to correlate assay results to logged mineralisation. Consultants were not used for this process. |
| Normally if old historic drilling was present, twinned holes are occasionally drilled to test the veracity of historic assay data; however no twinned holes were drilled during this program. |
|
| Primary data is sent in digital format to the company’s Database Administrator (DBA) as often as was practicable. The DBA imports the data into an acQuire database, with assay results merged into the database upon receipt from the laboratory. Once loaded, data was extracted for verification by the geologist in charge of the project. No adjustments were made to any current or historic data. If data could not be validated to a reasonable level of certaintyit was not used in anyresource estimations. |
|
| Location of data points |
All drill collars were surveyed after completion, using a DGPS instrument. Down-hole surveys were completed using a north-seeking gyroscope at the end of the each hole or at the end of eachprogramme bya contractor. |
| RC drilling locations were determined by hand held GPS, with a nominal accuracy of +/-5m in Northing and Easting. After finishing the drilling hole locations were picked up by DGPS with accuracy of +/-20cm. |
|
| Data spacing and distribution |
Drill spacing across the Coolgardie prospects varied depending on the exploration stage that the drill target currently existed. Drilling varied from wide spaced exploration RC drilling to precisely placed RC and diamond tails designed to define mineral resources. |
| Sample compositing has not been applied to the reporting of exploration results. | |
| Orientation of data in relation to geological structure |
Drilling was designed based on known geological models, field mapping, verified historical data, cross-sectional interpretation and 3D geology modelling. Where achievable, drill holes oriented at right angles to strike of deposit, with dip optimised for drill capabilities and the dip of the ore body. No orientation and sampling bias has been recognised in the drilling data to date. |
| Sample security | All samples were reconciled against the sample submission with any omissions or variations reported to FML. All samples were bagged in a tied numbered calico bag, grouped into green plastic bags. The bags were placed into cages with a sample submission sheet and delivered directly from site to the Kalgoorlie laboratories by FML personnel on a semi-daily basis. |
| Audits or reviews | A review of sampling techniques was carried out by Roredata Pty Ltd in late 2013 as part of a database amalgamation project. Their only recommendation was to change the QA/QC intervals to bring them into line with the FML Laverton system, which uses the same frequency of standards and duplicates but has them inserted at different points within the numberingsequence. |

Exploration at Coolgardie dates to the late 1800s. Modern exploration within the Exploration done Coolgardie Project area includes several generations of drilling (RAB, AC, RC and by other parties diamond), airborne and ground geophysical surveys, surface and underground mapping, prospecting and open pit/underground mining. Bonnie Vale mineralisation is historically contained within large (300m strike length) planar reef structures on or near the contact of the Bonnie Vale Tonalite and an overlying ultramafic volcanic succession. FML exploration activities are designed to test for potential extensions to these structures down dip and along strike. Mineralisation at Tindals is typically associated with deformed silicified diorite dykes within a highly sheared and folded succession of ultramafic and mafic volcanic rocks. Diorite dykes are variably folded and sheared along with the host units, and gold Geology mineralisation is typically related to brittle deformation of the competent dykes. FML exploration activities are designed to test for along strike and down dip extensions of known lode systems as well as testing under-tested analogous settings in the district. Brilliant contains gold mineralisation on sheared basalt-ultramafic contacts and also within silicified intrusive diorite bodies conformable to the stratigraphy, dipping steeply to the WSW. Brilliant is an advanced brown-fields project.

| Data aggregation methods |
Mineralised intersections are reported at a 1.00g/t Au cut-off with a minimum reporting width of 1m, reported as length-weighted average grades. |
||||||||
| Relationship between mineralization widths and intercept lengths |
Holes were drilled orthogonal to mineralisation as much as possible, however the exact relationship between intercept width and true width cannot be estimated exactly in all cases. |
||||||||
| Diagrams | Accurate collar plans are included in this announcement. 3D perspective views and schematic cross-sections are included to illustrate the distribution of grade |
||||||||
| Balanced reporting | Drilling results are reported in a balanced reporting style. The ASX announcement shows actual locations of holes drilled, and representative sections as appropriate. Holes shown on the collar location plan which are not reported in the table of significant intercepts did not intersect reportable mineralisation. |
||||||||
| Other substantive exploration data |
There is no other material exploration data to report at this time. | ||||||||
| Further work | FML anticipates additional drilling to follow up on encouraging results at Bonnie Vale and Greater Tindals. |
