  • 6m @ 0.16% copper & 0.75% zinc from 102m (NRC259)

  • High potential for discoveries at the Norseman Project with outstanding infrastructure including road and rail within five kilometres of major targets

Galileo Mining Ltd (ASX: GAL, “Galileo” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an exploration update for activities completed at the Company’s highly prospective Fraser Range and Norseman tenements.

In the Fraser Range an updated interpretation of the detailed airborne magnetic data surrounding the Lantern Prospect has shown multiple untested targets prospective for Nova style nickel-copper deposits. The interpretation is supported by aircore drilling undertaken earlier this year which showed prospective intrusions at the Lantern and Delta Blues Prospects.

Company activities in the first half of 2020 will be focussed on the drilling of Fraser Range prospects in the search for high value new discoveries.

At the Norseman Project recent drilling has also identified anomalous copper and zinc mineralisation over 800 metres of strike length at two prospect locations with new targets being developed for additional work in the future.

Commenting on the recent activities Galileo Managing Director Brad Underwood said: “ The Fraser Range is an exciting new mineral province with two known nickel-copper discoveries at Nova and Silver Knight. Galileo has early stage prospects at Lantern and Delta Blues where we have completed just two aircore drilling programs.

From this initial drilling we successfully defined prospective rocks under cover giving us a high level of confidence in the updated interpretation which has yielded more targets for drill testing. We intend on making the Fraser Range a priority work area for the first half of 2020 as we seek to make discoveries in this highly prospective region of Western Australia.”

Figure 1 shows the location of the known nickel-copper deposits in the Fraser Range along with Galileo’s prospects and the newly developed target zones. Detailed airborne magnetic data flown at a 50-metre line spacing has been utilised to undertake the interpretation. Prospective mafic-ultramafic intrusions in the Fraser Range often display unique magnetic signatures due to remanent magnetisation of the intrusions and the deflection of volcano-sedimentary host rocks as the intrusions were emplaced.

A similar style of interpretation was previously successful at both the Lantern and Delta Blues Prospects where subsequent aircore drilling and petrography confirmed nickel-copper prospective rock units.[(1)]

Figure 2 displays the new interpreted intrusions (green ellipses) which will be targeted with aircore drilling programs to assess the bedrock geology for mineral potential beneath cover rocks. Cover rocks in the area are estimated at between 40 and 100 metres with the aircore drilling technique providing a cost-effective method of first pass assessment. Follow up programs at target areas deemed prospective will include ground electro-magnetic surveying and more advanced drilling methods such as RC and diamond drilling. The same exploration methodology has been used at the Lantern Prospect which is now at the stage of RC and diamond drilling[(1)] .

Galileo plans to target its Fraser Range exploration portfolio with the following work programs;

  • RC drilling at the Lantern Prospect

  • Down hole electro-magnetic surveying at the Lantern Prospect followed by diamond drilling

  • Aircore drilling at the Delta Blues Prospect to delineate the near surface boundaries of the prospective intrusive rock units

  • Aircore drilling of newly developed target zones north of the Lantern Prospect

  • Results of aircore drilling will be used in the design of electro-magnetic (EM) geophysical surveys to target conductive responses that may be related to nickel-copper mineralisation

At the Norseman Project 1,279 metres of RC drilling was completed at three prospects (Subzero, Roadside and Goblin – see Figure 3). Wide zones of sulphide alteration were intercepted at the Subzero and Roadside Prospects with up to 20% semi-massive sulphides recorded. Copper and zinc contents of the sulphide rich horizons reached maximum values of 0.19% and 0.96% respectively in 3 metre composite samples.

Drilling has established that significant hydrothermal alteration has occurred at both prospects with the prospective zones being at least 800m in strike length. The potential for an economic VMS style deposit remains high and the Company is establishing a track record of defining and drill testing prospective zones within the Norseman Project area. An untested volcanic package of rocks exists at the Woodcutters Prospect and will be targeted with soil sampling programs and electro-magnetic surveying prior to drill testing (see Figure 3 for Woodcutter Prospect location).

Scout drilling at Norseman has also confirmed a nickel prospective komatiite target under shallow cover at the Goblin Prospect. Magnetic inversion modelling was successfully used to target the basalt/komatiite contact under shallow cover rocks. The same technique will now be applied to the komatiite unit where it occurs along strike to the north at the Gremlin Prospect. The Gremlin Prospect is masked by shallow cover and has never been tested for nickel sulphide mineralisation associated with volcanic komatiite flows.

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.
•A 1m sample split for each metre is
collected at the time of drilling from the
drill rig mounted cone splitter.
•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 50g Lead Collection Fire Assay with
ICP-OES finish was used to determine
Au results
•A four acid digest was used for a multi-
element analysis suite including Ag, Al,
As, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs,
Cu, Fe, Ga, Ge, Hf, In, K, La, Li, Mg,

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
5.25“drill bit completed by Red Rock
Drilling Pty Ltd.

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
determineifthereis a sample bias.
Logging Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a
level of detail to support appropriate Mineral
Resource estimation, mining studies and
metallurgical studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in
nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc)

The total length and percentage of the relevant
_intersections logged. _
•Geological logging of drill holes was
done on a visual preliminary basis with
full logging in progress to include
lithology, grainsize, mineralogy, colour
and weathering.
•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.

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

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 initial RC drill samples were
collected using a PVC spear as 3m
composites (2-3kg). Other composites
of 2m and individual 1m samples were
collected where required ie, at the
bottom of hole.
•Selected 1m samples for intervals
deemed of interest by the Geologist
supervising the drill rig were submitted
to the assay laboratory. These 1m
samples were collected at the time of
drilling from the drill rig mounted cone
splitter. These selected 1m interval
samples refer to assays reported for
drill-holes NRC241, NRC242 and
NRC243 only. Additional 1m cone split
samples for all holes at the Subzero
Prospect may be submitted for assay
at a later date.
•The samples were dried and
pulverised before analysis.

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.
•No drilling core has been completed
for the measurement of possible
structures.
•Given the nature of mineralisation it is
thought that the geometry is best
described as subvertical however no
quantitative measurements exist and
all drill intercepts are reported as down
hole length, true width unknown.
•No quantitative measurements of
mineralisedzones/structures exist.
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

•Barrier Exploration completed three
diamond drill holes at the Cowan West
VMS prospect in 1971.
•The GSWA 250k Norseman Map Sheet
Explanatory Notes records that 13
metric tonnes of ore were produced
from the pits and shaft at the Subzero
Prospect in 1953. Average ore grade
was 8.36% copper.
Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.
•The Norseman target geology and
mineralisation style is volcanogenic
massive sulphide (VMS) mineralisation
occurring within the GSWA mapped
Mount Kirk Formation
•The Mount Kirk formation is described
as “Acid and basic volcanic rocks and
sedimentary rocks, intruded by basic
and ultrabasic rocks”
•The Fraser Range target geology is
indicative of magmatic sulphide
mineralisation hosted in or associated
with mafic-ultramafic intrusions within
the Fraser Complex of the Albany-
Fraser Orogeny.
•The underlying unweathered lithology is

determined by petrographic work.
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 intercept results.
•Tables of the relevant assay intervals of
significance are included in this
release. Criteria for inclusion are based
on an assay of >/= 0.1% Cu or 0.1% Zn
over a minimum interval of 1m, 2m of
internal dilution with intercepts of Cu or
Zn reporting greater than 0.1% being
reported.
•Parts-per-million data reported from the
assay laboratory for Cu and Zn have
been converted to percent values and
reported as percent values to 2 decimal
places with upward roundingapplied.
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 on surface
with a general strike of 010° similar to
the host rock
•Geometry from surface outcrop is best
described as sub-vertical. Drilling
intercept data of lithologies implies an
apparent dip of the prospective
lithologies on E-W section of between
65 and 80 degrees to the west,
however no reliable quantitative
measurements exist.

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.
•Plan map of the general prospect area,
detailed location plan map and
representative section have been
provided. Tables with drill-hole collar
locations and zones of significant
geochemical intercepts for target
elements of interest Cu, Zn, Au, Ag are
provided. Locations have been included
using accurate hand-held GPS
locations (Garmin GPS 78s) +/- 5m in
X/Y dimensions and Z dimension from
a DEM surface generated from detailed
aeromagnetic survey data+/- 2m.
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.
•At both the Norseman and Fraser
Range Projects, detailed 50m line
spaced aeromagnetic data has been
used for interpretation of underlying
geology. Data was collected by
Magspec Airborne Surveys Pty Ltd
using a Geometrics G-823 caesium
vapor magnetometer at an average
flying height of 30m.
•At the Fraser Range Project, detailed
gravity data has also been used for
interpretation of underlying geology.
Data was collected using Scintrex CG-5
Autograv gravity meters positioned
using a Leica GX1230 receiver and
GNSS base station.
•Fraser Range petrography was
undertaken by R.N. England Consulting
Geologist
•GEM Geophysics Pty Ltd was
contracted to complete the Moving
Loop Electromagnetic (MLEM) survey.
•MLEM survey data was collected with
400m loops using a Smartem V system
and Jesse Deeps SQUID receiver in a
400m offset Slingram configuration. Z,
X and Y component data were
collected at a base frequency of 1Hz.
•Maxwell software was utilised to
process and model the MLEM data.
•Modelling and interpretation of the EM
survey geophysical data was
undertaken by Spinifex Gpx Pty Ltd
