Aircore drilling program scheduled to commence next week
Galileo Mining Ltd (ASX: GAL, “Galileo” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce aircore drilling is scheduled to commence next week at the Lantern South Prospect in Western Australia’s Fraser Range Nickel Belt following receipt of Mines Department approvals for follow up drilling around the nickel-copper sulphide intersection.[(1)]
A 4000m aircore program is planned along strike of the sulphide mineralisation in LARC003 on the margin of a large intrusion with similar geology to the Nova ore body.
Over two kilometres of untested strike length occurs at the Lantern Prospect with a large magnetic feature interpreted to represent the contact between the prospective intrusions and their host rocks.
Commenting on the upcoming program Galileo Managing Director Brad Underwood said: “This next round of aircore drilling will be an important step in the follow-up exploration of the sulphides already discovered at the Lantern Prospect. With over two kilometres of untested strike length we are aiming to identify mineralisation similar to Nova-style nickel deposits. Our petrography results are again telling us we have the right rock types to host a nickel deposit and, with Legend Mining recently having made a discovery along strike at the Mawson Prospect, this is a very exciting time to be exploring in the Fraser Range.”

The Lantern Prospect lies approximately 50km along strike from Legend Mining’s Mawson Prospect (Figure 4) where a massive sulphide discovery was recently announced.[ (2)] Two priority targets have been developed in the Lantern area and have been renamed Lantern North and Lantern South (Figure 3). Lantern North is a large EM anomaly at around 340 metres depth while Lantern South contains disseminated nickel-copper sulphide at 110 metres depth. Both targets occur on the margin of a large gabbronorite intrusion measuring 2km by 2.3km on surface, similar to the dimensions of the Nova sill complex which measures 2.4km by 1.2km. (3)
A first-pass aircore drilling program at the Lantern South Prospect in 2019 identified a nickel and copper geochemical anomaly. RC drilling beneath this anomaly in March 2020 showed that it was caused by disseminated nickel-copper sulphide mineralisation. Galileo now plans to interrogate the two kilometres of strike around the sulphide intersection with additional aircore drilling for the purpose of identifying geochemical responses which, if found, are likely to be related to further sulphide mineralisation.
A 4000 metre aircore drilling program has been designed around and along strike of LARC003 which intersected the disseminated sulphides. A magnetic anomaly in the area is interpreted to represent the contact between prospective intrusive rocks and their host rocks (Figure 1).

Petrography results from LARC003 show that prominent magmatic nickel-copper sulphides occur as veins, disseminations and stringers in a lherzolite (ultramafic) cumulate rock. The surrounding rocks are described as cumulate lherzolite and leucogabbronorite and are interpreted to form part of a layered intrusive complex.
The petrographic results and scale of Lantern South compare favourably with the Nova-Bollinger maficultramafic intrusion which measures approximately 2.4km by 1.2km. The intrusive rocks at Nova are described as peridotite (harzburgite or lherzolite), pyroxenite, gabbronorite and norite.[ (3)]
Having identified rock types with the potential to host magmatic nickel-copper deposits, Galileo has checked off an important milestone in the exploration for new deposits at the Lantern Prospect.

==> picture [464 x 187] intentionally omitted <==
Downhole electro-magnetic (EM) surveying has been undertaken at both the Lantern South and Lantern North targets. 200m square surface loops were used to provide an electrical source while a probe was run down the drill holes looking for subsurface responses. The results were inconclusive with no response obtained from the sulphide intersection in LARC003. Only a conductive response related to the cover rocks above the drill hole was detected. A diamond drill hole is currently being planned to test for mineralisation beneath LARC003.
Two RC drill holes at the Lantern North target were surveyed, however no response was recorded from the deep EM conductor originally detected by surface moving loop surveying. The drill holes at Lantern North extended to approximately 210m below surface and may not have come close enough to the deep conductor which has been modelled at 340m depth. A surface fixed loop EM survey is being planned to delineate the extent of the conductor at Lantern North to refine the target for drill testing.

Sulphide zones that are semi-massive or heavily disseminated, rather than massive, may not be visible to EM methods while remaining economically attractive targets. Galileo will continue to use a combination of geophysical techniques including magnetic, gravity, EM and possibly IP data sets to focus on the sections of the intrusive complex with the greatest potential for mineralisation.

Figure 3 shows the response from ground moving loop EM surveying over the 2km by 2.3km intrusion (left image) with the image on the right clearly depicting the magnetic response. The best targets identified to date are on the margins of the intrusion, particularly at Lantern South, where ultramafic cumulate rocks containing sulphides have been drilled. The western and eastern flanks of the intrusion have yet to be drill tested and represent compelling targets based on available results. A first pass line of aircore drilling on the western flank of the large intrusion is included in the upcoming aircore program.

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-MS finish was used to determine Au, Pt and Pd results •A four acid digest was used for a multi- element analysis suite including Ag, Al, As, Ba, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, La, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Ni, P, Pb, S, Sb, Sc, Sn, Sr,Te,Ti,Tl,V,W,Zn, by |

• 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 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. Additional 1m cone split samples for all holes at the Lantern Prospect may be submitted for assay at a later date. •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. |

| •RC drilling was a first pass and the spacing and drillhole distribution is deemed insufficient to establish a JORC 2012 Compliant Resource. •Drill holes were sampled on a 3m composite basis or as 1m or 2m samples at the end of hole as required. Where anomalous values were expected by the geologist at the time of composite sampling, selected intervals of 1m samples collected from the drill rig mounted cone splitter were submittedforassay. |
|||
| 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 pre- numbered draw string calico bag, tied off and then several placed in a large plastic “polyweave” bag which was zip tied closed.

| 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. •See Galileo Mining’s ASX announcement dated 17th March 2020 for previously reported assay details |
|
| 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’). _ |
•Geometry of the mineralisation is inferred from the aircore and RC drillholes data and is best described as sub-vertical. Drilling intercept data of lithologies implies an apparent dip of the prospective lithologies on NW-SE section of between 60 and 80 degrees to the southeast, however no reliable quantitative measurements exist. |

| Diagrams | • Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any 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 drill hole locations with respect to each other and with respect to other available data. •Drill hole locations have been determined with 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 available relevant information is presented. | |
| 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, |
