Focus Minerals Ltd Activities and Cashflow Report for December Quarter 2016
Operational Highlights During the Quarter
During the December Quarter, Focus Minerals Ltd (“Focus”, “FML” or the “Company”) advanced its priority targets at both Coolgardie and Laverton. The locations of Focus’ projects are presented in Figure 1.
Recent work at Laverton has increased Focus’ confidence in the potential of Karridale, while work at Coolgardie during the December Quarter has enabled Focus to make an important step towards recommencing production. Mining One Consultants has been engaged to undertake preliminary feasibility studies (PFS) of the Bonnie Vale and Brilliant resources. If the results of the PFS’ are positive, they are expected to form the basis of JORC 2012 Ore Reserve assessments and maiden Ore Reserve declarations for these important resources. Focus looks forward to providing updates on this work as it proceeds.
Focus’ cash remains strong, at $64.4M, due to the Company’s ongoing cost discipline and the receipt of the initial $1.5M from FMR Investments following the agreement to divest part of M15/154 (See ASX 24 November 2016). Under this agreement, Focus will receive an additional $1.5M once the transfer of the affected part of the tenement is complete.

Coolgardie Gold Project
During the quarter, 83 RC holes for 6,417m were drilled at Coolgardie. Details of these activities, including the significant intercepts, were released to the ASX on 25 January 2017.
Drilling was split between exploration program testing targets near Bonnie Vale and Tindals and a close-spaced drill program at Possum. Highlights of the significant results include:
-
6m @ 6.29g/t Au from 57m (including 1m @ 19.50g/t Au from 59m) in TND16099
-
8m @ 1.48g/t Au from 60m in TND16115
-
1m @ 5.92g/t Au from 192m in TND16120
-
1m @ 4.79g/t Au from 92m in TND16121
Collar locations for these and other recent Coolgardie holes are presented in Figure 2 below.

Drilling at Coolgardie recommenced for 2017 on the 25[th] of January. The main focus of current work is RC exploration and infill drilling at Brilliant as well as resource in-filling and testing lode extensions and Bonnie Vale. A ground gravity survey program with 2,059 stations has been planned at the Tindals area. Furthemore, the company has planned a 3,300 stations gravity survey program at the east part of Lake Cowan, the purpose of which is to further understand the structural geology in the area with the aim to delineate gold targeting.

Laverton Gold Project
During the quarter, Focus has drilled 28 RC holes for 6,193m into the Karridale Project, the results were released to the ASX on 25 January 2017.
The drilling has increased Focus’ confidence that the Karridale Project is a significant gold system and has extended the strike of mineralisation to over 700m. The mineralisation remains open along strike and down dip.
Highlights from the recent Karridale drilling include the high-grade gold intersections:
-
4m @ 30.3g/t Au from 90m in hole KARC224
-
7m @ 11.0g/t Au from 214m in hole KARC222
-
4m @ 8.74g/t Au from 205m in KARC203
-
3m @ 8.47g/t Au from 108m in KARC208
-
4m @ 6.05g/t Au from 41m in KARC223
-
4m @ 5.34g/t Au from 57m in KARC204
-
6m @ 2.33g/t Au from 250m in KARC214
Collar locations for these and other recent Karridale holes are presented in Figure 3 below.

Figure 3: Selected Karridale drill collar locations.
During the first quarter of 2017, Focus plans to complete 32 RC drill holes totalling 9,052m. This work will infill the current drill pattern to enable the estimation of a maiden Mineral Resource and test for extensions to high-grade mineralisation west of the Boomerang mine as well as at depth northwest of the Karridale mine. Planning is in progress for diamond core drilling to extend selected holes, such as KARC222.

These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future, assumptions which may or may not prove correct, and may be beyond Focus’ ability to control or predict which may cause the actual results or performance of Focus to be materially different from the results or performance expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
