KOONENBERRY PROJECT
Registered Address:
35 Richardson Street WEST PERTH WA 6005
The Koonenberry Project (Figure 1) is an emerging, district scale, Copper and Base Metals exploration package located 80km east of Broken Hill, New South Wales. The Company considers the Koonenberry Belt to be highly prospective for a number of styles of mineralisation including VMS hosted Cu–Zn–Au–Ag deposits (which is substantiated by the presence of the Grasmere deposit), magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE, epithermal Ag-Pb-Cu and orogenic Au.
The Koonenberry Project covers 2600km[2 ] of land holding, ~150km strike of the significantly under-explored Koonenberry Belt which is considered highly prospective for VMS-hosted Cu–Zn– Ag–Au, magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE, epithermal Ag-Pb-Cu and orogenic Au1.
Grasmere - The largest copper rich massive sulphide zone identified to date in Western NSW and adds an further 24km[2] to the Koonenberry Project. Grasmere contains an Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate reported in accordance with JORC (2004) totalling 5.75 Mt @ 1.03% Cu, 0.35% Zn, 0.05 g/t Au, 2.3 g/t Ag[1] .
Grasmere is hosted in a semi continuous mineralised zone over a strike length of 4km and defined by 75 drill holes and is open at depth. EM results confirm higher magnitude anomalism along strike in proximity to the Grasmere deposit, highlighting potential association with increased sulphide mineralisation.

Cymbric Vale - Minimal modern exploration has identified significant copper prospectively at Cymbric Vale with a shear hosted Cu system and similar structural and geological setting to Grasmere. EM survey results confirm targets have been identified at Cymbric Vale over >7km of strike and incorporating known copper mineralisation that extends over >1.2km of strike.
Wertago - Historic mining trend, highly prospective for VMS along strike, A further untested anomalous “Western” trend has been identified that extends for over 10km includes 2 high priority targets.

Previous Exploration Work
A total of 43 historical exploration licences have covered parts of the area of the Koonenberry Project. Previous exploration includes;
-
High-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric data were collected over the Koonenberry Project area in a series of four surveys conducted as part of the Discovery 2000 initiative of the Geological Survey of New South Wales. Several airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys were also flown by exploration companies, in particular CRA Exploration and BHP Minerals. PFW have recently completed a substantial high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey.
-
Several companies undertook regional stream sediment, rock chip and soil sampling programs within the area of the Koonenberry Project Licences. Stream sediment sampling showed a clustering of high copper values1 in the far northern end of EL 8722 and surrounding the Grasmere deposit.
-
A total of only 71 drill holes for ~6,500 metres of comprising percussion, air-core, RC and diamond have been recorded from the area since 1963 covered by the Koonenberry Project.
EM Survey Results
During the quarter Odin completed a detailed modern HeliTEM2 EM survey covering an area of ~1,150km[2] , the largest of its kind was conducted over the highly prospective Koonenberry belt and focused on known mineralised trends, including the recently acquired Grasmere Deposit, plus its 21km of prospective strike. Interpreted VMS trends associated with near surface small scale historical mining, including Cymbric Vale & Wertago we also covered.
58 targets have been identified , including 6 high priority targets within known mineralised copper trends.

Final data has been received and is currently being reviewed, processed and modelled. Ground reconnaissance and field verification is set to commence as during the next quarter and will be focused on verifying the 6 high priority first order targets followed by the checking of numerous second order targets located in known significant mineralised trends. On completion of the field reconnaissance and the receipt of finalised data, the company plans to commence drill testing of priority targets.

Drilling Programme
RC Drilling - Odin has engaged a NSW based RC drilling contractor to commence drilling at Grasmere from next month subject to COVID-19 restrictions at the time. The company plans to drill a minimum of 5,000 metres of RC which includes Grasmere and Cymbric Vale to test the higher grades encountered at Grasmere and to follow up on the two RC holes previously completed at Cymbric Vale.
On completion of drilling at Cymbric Vale, RC drill testing of specific targets on the Wertago EM anomalous trends is planned to commence subject to the normal approvals.

==> picture [116 x 44] intentionally omitted <==
Auger Geochemistry Sampling Programme – Given the vast VMS trends located within Odin’s Tenement package including but not limited to Grasmere, Cymbric Vale and Wertago, the company is planning to extend the limited geochemical coverage over the area utilising patterned systematic auger drilling to aid prioritisation and targeting of further drilling.
Drilling is planned to test anomalous areas that are more conducive to Auger drilling post the initial RC programmes, specifically the newly identified anomalous EM trends identified at Wertago that extends for over 10km, inclusive of two high priority targets that are ~1,200 metres apart.
Summary of proposed work in the next quarter
In the near term the Company is planning:
-
Ground reconnaissance, as a precursor to RC drilling and to finalise planned Aircore Drilling.
-
Review and modelling of final EM data
-
RC Drilling is scheduled to commence in August subject to COVID-19 restrictions at the time
-
Auger drilling to undertake pattern geochemical Auger drilling along the VMS mineralised trend that extends for over 20 km and hosts the Grasmere Cu Deposit, the Wertago trends, and other newly identified (EM) anomalies
