  • 12m @ 0.10% Co from 45m (NRC129)

  • Extensive mineralisation continuous over 2 kilometres of strike and open at the southern end

  • Second round of RC drilling due to commence in early September

Galileo Mining (ASX: GAL, “Galileo” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce assay results from initial reverse circulation (“RC”) drilling at the Norseman Cobalt Project in the Goldfields region of Western Australia confirm the presence of high-grade, shallow, cobalt mineralisation.

RC Drilling at the Goblin prospect, located 3 kilometres south of Galileo’s main resource at Norseman, has identified an extensive zone of cobalt mineralisation over 2 kilometres in strike length (Figure 1).

Cobalt was intercepted at shallow depths between 12 and 60 metres below surface with mineralisation analogous to the Company’s existing JORC resources at Norseman.

Galileo Managing Director Brad Underwood said the results from the first round of the Company’s recent exploration drilling were highly encouraging, supporting the prospect of additional cobalt resources at Norseman.

“Our first exploration drilling program at Norseman has demonstrated that significant zones of cobalt mineralisation exist outside of our current JORC resources.”

“These first results are a good indication that further discoveries may exist at our Norseman Cobalt Project. With our second exploration drilling program due to begin in early September we hope to deliver more positive results over the coming months.” Mr Underwood said.

The initial exploration results cover 58 RC drillholes completed at the Goblin prospect for a total of 3,163 metres. A further 79 RC drillholes for a total of 4,124 metres were drilled in the first program with assay results from this drilling expected over the coming weeks. The drillholes were primarily aimed at identifying cobalt mineralisation in order to expand the current JORC resource base. A second round of RC drilling is scheduled to commence on the 4[th] of September with results from this program expected in early October. The second round of RC drilling will be a combination of infill drilling at the Goblin prospect as well as new drilling at the Mission Sill prospect.

Technical Discussion

Cobalt mineralisation was intercepted at the Goblin prospect at the boundary between the upper and lower saprolite typically found between 12 and 40 metres below surface. The location of cobalt fits with Galileo’s exploration model for new deposits at Norseman which anticipates the development of a supergene cobalt oxide layer above weathered ultramafic rocks. Surface indications may be limited to ferricrete and/or anomalous cobalt in soil results however in some instances few surface indications are present due to transported soil cover. Prospects have been developed using a combination of surface indicators and magnetic imagery representing the underlying formative geology.

Appendix 1:

Galileo Mining Ltd – Norseman Cobalt Project JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1 report template

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut
channels, random chips, or specific specialised
industry standard measurement tools
appropriate to the minerals under investigation,
such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld
XRF instruments, etc). These examples should
not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of
sampling.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure
sample representivity and the appropriate
calibration of any measurement tools or
systems used.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation
that are Material to the Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has
been done this would be relatively simple (eg
‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1
m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to
produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other
cases more explanation may be required, such
as where there is coarse gold that has inherent
sampling problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules)
may warrant disclosure of detailed information.
Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling, was
used to obtain one metre individually
bagged chip samples.
Each RC bag was spear sampled to
provide a 3 metre representative
composite sample for analyses.
Resampling at 1m intervals will be
undertaken on anomalous cobalt
samples.
QAQC standards (blank & reference)
and duplicate samples were included
routinely with 1 per 20 samples being a
standard or duplicate.
Samples were sent to an independent
commercial assay laboratory.
All assay sample preparation
comprised oven drying, jaw crushing,
pulverising and splitting to a
representative assay charge pulp.
A four acid digest was used for a multi-
element analysis suite including Ag, Al,
As, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu,
Fe, Ga, Ge, Hf, In, K, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo,
Na, Nb, Ni, P, Pb, Rb, Re, S, Sb, Sc,
Se, Sn, Sr, Ta, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, W,
Y, Zn, Zr by ICP-MS or ICP-OES for all
samples.
Drilling
techniques
Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-
hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka,
sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple
or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit or other type, whether core is
oriented and if so, by what method, etc).
RC drilling was undertaken using a 5
½ “drill bit completed by Red Rock
Drilling Pty Ltd.
Drill sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing core and
chip sample recoveries and results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery
and ensure representative nature of the
samples.
Whether a relationship exists between sample
recovery and grade and whether sample bias
may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain
of fine/coarse material.
Sample recoveries are visually
estimated for each metre with poor or
wet samples recorded in drill and
sample log sheets.
The sample cyclone was routinely
cleaned at the end of each 6m rod and
when deemed necessary.
No relationship has been determined
between sample recoveries and grade
and there is insufficient data to
determine if there is a sample bias.
Logging Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a
level of detail to support appropriate Mineral
Geological logging of drill holes
included lithology, grainsize,
mineralogy, colour and weathering.

Page 8 | 12

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Resource estimation, mining studies and
metallurgical studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in
nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc)
photography.
The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.
Logging of drill chips is qualitative and
based on the presentation of the 1m
samples in the chip trays.
All drill holes were logged in their
entirety.
Sub-sampling
techniques
and sample
preparation
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether
quarter, half or all core taken.
If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled,
rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or
dry.
For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness of the sample preparation
technique.
Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-
sampling stages to maximise representivity of
samples.
Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is
representative of the in situ material collected,
including for instance results for field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the
grain size of the material being sampled.
All RC drill samples were collected
using a PVC spear as 3m composites
(2-3kg). Other composites of 2m and
4m and individual 1m samples were
collected where required ie, at the
bottom of hole.
The samples were dried and
pulverised before analysis.
QAQC reference samples and
duplicates were routinely submitted
with each batch.
The sample size is considered
appropriate for the mineralisation style,
application and analytical techniques
used.
Quality of
assay data
and
laboratory
tests
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the
assaying and laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered partial or
total.
For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld
XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in
determining the analysis including instrument
make and model, reading times, calibrations
factors applied and their derivation, etc.
Nature of quality control procedures adopted
(eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external
laboratory checks) and whether acceptable
levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision
have been established.
RC chip samples were analysed for a
multi-element suite (44 elements) by
ICP-MS or ICP-OES following a four
acid digest. The assay methods used
are considered appropriate.
QAQC standards and duplicates were
routinely included at a rate of 1 per 20
samples.
Further internal laboratory QAQC
procedures included internal batch
standards and blank.s
Sample preparation was completed at
Intertek Genalysis Laboratory,
(Kalgoorlie) with digest and assay
conducted by Intertek Genalyis
Laboratory Services (Perth) using a
four acid (4A/OM10) for multi-element.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
The verification of significant intersections by
either independent or alternative company
personnel.
The use of twinned holes.
Documentation of primary data, data entry
procedures, data verification, data storage
(physical and electronic) protocols.
Discuss any adjustment to assay data.
Field data was collected on site using
a standard set of logging templates
entered directly into a laptop. Data was
then sent to the Galileo database
manager for validation and upload into
the database.
Assays as reported from the laboratory
and stored in the Company database
have not been adjusted in any way.
Location of
data points
Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate
drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys),
trenches, mine workings and other locations
used in Mineral Resource estimation.
Drill hole collars are surveyed with a
handheld GPS with an accuracy of +/-
5m which is considered sufficient for
drill hole location accuracy.

==> picture [560 x 24] intentionally omitted <==

Page 9 | 12

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Specification of the grid system used.
Quality and adequacy of topographic control.
Co-ordinates are in MGA94 datum,
zone 51.
Topographic control has an accuracy
of 2m based on detailed satellite
imagery derived DTM.
Data spacing
and
distribution
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration
Results.
Whether the data spacing and distribution is
sufficient to establish the degree of geological
and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve estimation
procedure(s) and classifications applied.
Whether sample compositing has been applied.
Drill hole spacing for the individual drill
holes was based on a 200m by 50m
grid pattern, a 400m by 50m grid
pattern, or on spot locations between
drill lines.
Depending on the assessment of the
drill data it is expected that drilling on a
200m by 50m grid pattern and on a
400m by 50m grid pattern may be
adequate to establish an inferred
resource based on the style of
mineralisation intercepted.
Drillholes were samples on a 3m
composite basis or as 1m, 2m or 4m
samples at the end of the hole as
required. Where anomalous values are
returned
1m
samples
mayl
be
submitted for assay.
Orientation of
data in
relation to
geological
structure
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves
unbiased sampling of possible structures and
the extent to which this is known, considering
the deposit type.
If the relationship between the drilling
orientation and the orientation of key
mineralised structures is considered to have
introduced a sampling bias, this should be
assessed and reported if material.
It is unknown whether the orientation
of sampling achieves unbiased
sampling of possible structures as the
mineralisation is hosted in soft regolith
material with no measurable structures
recorded in drill core.
The mineralisation occurs in highly
weathered regolith material and no
structures have been recorded from
drilling.
Given the nature of mineralisation it is
thought that the geometry is best
described as horizontal or sub-
horizontal however no quantitative
measurements exist and all drill
intercepts are reported as down hole
length, true width unknown.
Sample
security
The measures taken to ensure sample security. Each sample was put into a tied off
calico bag and then several placed in a
large plastic “polyweave” bag which
was zip tied closed. For transport,
sampled were placed on wooden
pallets inside plastic “polyweave” “Bulk
Bags” ensuring no loss of material.
Samples were delivered directly to the
laboratory in Kalgoorlie by Galileo’s
freight contractor.
Audits or
reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data.
Continuous improvement reviews of
sampling techniques and procedures
are ongoing. No external audits have
been performed.

Mineral
tenement and
land tenure
status
Type, reference name/number, location and
ownership including agreements or material
issues with third parties such as joint ventures,
partnerships, overriding royalties, native title
interests, historical sites, wilderness or national
park and environmental settings.
The security of the tenure held at the time of
reporting along with any known impediments to
obtaining a licence to operate in the area.
The Norseman Cobalt Project
comprises two granted exploration
licenses and one granted prospecting
license covering 257km2, and 17
prospecting license applications
covering 20.7 km2
All tenements within the Norseman
Cobalt Project are 100% owned by
Galile.o
The Norseman Cobalt Project is
centred around a location
approximately 10km west of Norseman
on vacant crown land.
All tenements in the Norseman Cobalt
Project are 100% covered by the
Ngadju Native Title Determined Claim.
The tenements are in good standing
and there are no known impediments.
Exploration
done by other
parties
Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by
other parties.
NA
Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.
The target geology and mineralisation
style is supergene cobalt-nickel
mineralisation occurring within highly
weathered regolith material.
The underlying unweathered lithology is
dominated by ultramafic to mafic
intrusive and volcanic, typically
orthocumulate to mesocumulate
peridotite and pyroxenite rocks.
Variable serpentinization has been
recorded where fresh rock has been
encountered.
Drill hole
Information
A summary of all information material to the
understanding of the exploration results
including a tabulation of the following information
for all Material drill holes:
o easting and northing of the drill hole collar
o elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation
above sea level in metres) of the drill hole
collar
o dip and azimuth of the hole
o down hole length and interception depth
o hole length.
If the exclusion of this information is justified on
the basis that the information is not Material and
this exclusion does not detract from the
understanding of the report, the Competent
Person should clearly explain why this is the
case.
Refer to drill hole collar and intercept
reporting table in the body of the report

Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting
averaging techniques, maximum and/or
minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high
grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material
and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short
lengths of high grade results and longer lengths
of low grade results, the procedure used for
such aggregation should be stated and some
typical examples of such aggregations should be
shown in detail.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal
equivalent values should be clearly stated.
Weighted averaging has been used,
based on the sample interval, for the
reporting of drilling results.
Aggregation procedures are described
in the footnotes to the drill hole
intercept table in the body of the report.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths
These relationships are particularly important in
the reporting of Exploration Results.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect
to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should
be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths
are reported, there should be a clear statement
to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width
not known’).
The mineralisation occurs in highly
weathered regolith material and no
structures have been recorded from
drill core.
Given the nature of mineralisation it is
thought that the geometry is best
described as horizontal or sub-
horizontal however no quantitative
measurements exist and all drill
intercepts are reported as down hole
length, true width unknown.
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and
tabulations of intercepts should be included for
any significant discovery being reported These
should include, but not be limited to a plan view
of drill hole collar locations and appropriate
sectional views.
Project location map and plan map of
the resource with respect to the
metallurgical holes drilled has been
included along with accurate hand-held
GPS drill hole collar location (Garmin
GPS 78s)+/-5m in X/Y/Z dimensions.
Balanced
reporting
Where comprehensive reporting of all
Exploration Results is not practicable,
representative reporting of both low and high
grades and/or widths should be practiced to
avoid misleading reporting of Exploration
Results.
All significant results are reported.
Other
substantive
exploration
data
Other exploration data, if meaningful and
material, should be reported including (but not
limited to): geological observations; geophysical
survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk
samples – size and method of treatment;
metallurgical test results; bulk density,
groundwater, geotechnical and rock
characteristics; potential deleterious or
contaminating substances.
All meaningful and material results
have been reported.
Further work The nature and scale of planned further work
(eg tests for lateral extensions or depth
extensions or large-scale step-out drilling).
Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of
possible extensions, including the main
geological interpretations and future drilling
areas, provided this information is not
commercially sensitive.
Anomalous cobalt composite samples
will be sent for analysis on a 1m
interval basis.
Resource assessment will be
undertaken by an independent Galileo
contractor and more drillholes may be
completed if required to establish a
JORC compliant resource.
