Galileo Mining Ltd (ASX: GAL, “Galileo” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide a summary of activities for the quarter ending 31 December 2020, in which the Company received results from its first diamond drilling campaign at the Lantern prospect, within the Fraser Range nickel project in Western Australia.
Commenting on the recent activities Galileo Managing Director Brad Underwood said: “It has been another important period of exploration for Galileo Mining as we continue to actively drill for discoveries in the prolific Fraser Range nickel belt.
“During the quarter the Company received assays from our first ever diamond drilling campaign completed in the northern portion of our Fraser Range project, revealing a small section of primary massive sulphide.

==> picture [79 x 123] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [120 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
This means we have identified a mineralised system that can produce high grade nickel and copper. Our job now is to focus on those areas that have the potential to host large accumulations of economic nickel-copper sulphides.
“Our large-scale EM surveying work has also been an important feature of the quarter, helping to identify further conductive targets for drilling. This work has continued into the new year and remains ongoing, as we develop a database of project-wide EM data.”
Diamond drilling at Galileo’s Lantern prospect intersected significant sulphide mineralisation within hole LARC013D, which targeted disseminated sulphide mineralisation along strike from previously reported RC drill hole LARC003 at the Lantern South prospect.
23m of heavily disseminated, blebby and banded nickel-copper sulphides in ultramafic host rock were intercepted in the diamond drill hole. Assays from this section averaged 0.19% nickel and 0.14% copper.
Of great importance was the intersection of a 7cm band of primary, massive sulphide (see Figure 1). This section assayed 4.6% nickel, 2.2% copper and 0.15% cobalt and demonstrates the ability of the mineralising system at the Lantern Prospect to create high grade nickel and copper sulphides.

Only a limited amount of drilling has been undertaken at the Lantern prospects with Galileo the first company to explore the area for bedrock mineralisation. No previous nickel exploration has occurred on Galileo’s northern Fraser Range tenure which provides the Company with a first mover advantage on a virgin greenfields property in a new nickel belt.
Downhole EM surveying of RC drill holes adjacent to LARC013D were previously completed with results limited to near surface effects due to weathered regolith and cover material. RC drilling and diamond drill core logging suggest that the best potential for further mineralisation at Lantern South is towards the south of the intrusion where the projected sulphide zone wraps around the intrusion (Figure 2).

Additional RC drilling has been planned beneath and to the south of LARC012 to expand the footprint of mineralisation and to identify those areas with the greatest capacity for higher grade mineralisation.

In addition to drilling at Lantern South the Company undertook diamond drilling at the Lantern East Prospect. LARC008D targeted an EM conductor on the margin of a major gabbronorite intrusion at the Lantern East prospect (see Figure 3). LARC008D intersected a suite of mafic intrusions with minor mafic granulite and pegmatite units. The dominant mafic intrusions are various types of gabbronorite with the disseminated and blebby sulphide mineralisation (predominantly pyrrhotite, with lesser chalcopyrite-pentlandite) occurring in the upper parts of the hole. In total, sulphides are present over 108.5 metres between 204m and 312.5m downhole. Maximum nickel and copper levels in drill hole LARC008D were approximately 300ppm reflecting the predominance of pyrrhotite at this location. The lower part of the drill hole from 312.5m intersected the regionally large gabbronorite intrusion and did not contain sulphide minerals.
Figure 3 –– Diamond Drill Holes at Lantern South & Lantern East Prospects (over Magnetic Image)
==> picture [443 x 304] intentionally omitted <==
LARC008D targeted an EM conductor with the top of the model at 225m below surface. The drill hole pierced the model at approximately 320m down hole and no conductive source was identified. The blebby and disseminated sulphides intersected between 204 and 312 metres are not conjoined or abundant enough to produce a conductive response. Initial downhole EM surveying has been performed using a one loop

==> picture [79 x 123] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [120 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
configuration. This did not identify a conductor able to explain the responses observed from surface moving loop and fixed loop EM surveys.
EM Surveying
Additional EM surveying was undertaken after the drilling and the modelling revised based on the updated data sets. The new in-loop moving loop survey data has been modelled as a subvertical 430 metre long body, striking approximately 310 degrees, with a strong conductance of 2,500 Siemens. The depth below surface to the top of the body is 140 metres (Figure 4).

Page 5 | 13
==> picture [594 x 25] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [79 x 123] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [120 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
The revised fixed loop EM model has been created with a similar strike orientation but offset to the south of the in-loop model. The new fixed loop model has a shorter strike length of 145m and a stronger conductance of 3,925 Siemens. The depth below surface of this model is approximately 180m.
The occurrence of sulphide in LARC008D is highly encouraging as it may represent a halo zone proximal to much greater sulphide accumulation associated with the EM conductive models 150 metres north of the current drilling. No graphitic or sulphidic sediments have been encountered and any conductive response represents a high priority target as it is more likely to be associated with sulphide bearing intrusive rock units.
Given the significant occurrence of nickel and copper mineralisation Galileo has accelerated plans to develop
more regional prospects into drill targets. During the period Galileo completed surveying at the Green Moon prospect, approximately six kilometres from the Lantern Prospect, where a large and strong conductor has been identified (see Figure 5).
Table 1: Modelled parameters of conductors:
| Prospect | Conductance | Length | Height | Depth to Top |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Green Moon | 4,000S | 300m | 400m | 545m |
| Lantern East (moving-loop survey) |
2,500S | 430m | 60m* | 140m |
| Lantern East (fixed loop survey) |
3,925S | 145m | 66m* | 177m |
| Lantern North3 | 1,200S | 400m | 200m | 340m |
- Down-dip extents of sub-vertical conductive bodies are broad estimates only as the EM surveys preferentially respond to the upper part of the conductor.
The conductor coincides with an area where aircore drilling has previously defined mafic intrusive rock types prospective for magmatic nickel-copper deposits (see ASX Announcement dated: 19th May 2020). Modelling of the Green Moon anomaly shows a strong conductor of 4,000 Siemens with a strike length of 300 metres at
==> picture [594 x 25] intentionally omitted <==
Page 6 | 13
==> picture [79 x 123] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [120 x 32] intentionally omitted <==
a depth of 545 metres below surface. Table 1 shows the parameters of the new conductor at Green Moon along with the existing conductors at adjacent prospects.

Post the end of the quarter the Company commenced EM surveying at the Delta Blues prospect where aircore drilling in 2019 showed nickel prospective intrusive rocks with weathered sulphides observed in petrographic samples (see ASX Announcement dated 3rd December 2019 and Figure 6 for prospect location).

Massive Sulphide Petrographic Analysis
During the quarter, Galileo completed petrographic analysis of diamond drill core recovered from hole LARC013D, which encountered heavily disseminated, blebby and banded nickel-copper sulphides in ultramafic host rock (Figure 7).
Petrography results showed that the massive sulphide consisted mainly of very coarse pyrrhotite with chalcopyrite and pentlandite forming veins, stringers and masses within the massive pyrrhotite. The host rock is gabbronorite with plagioclase, orthophyroxene and hornblende being the dominant host rock minerals (Figure 7).

The petrography data has confirmed high tenor sulphide mineralisation at Lantern South in a typical magmatic sulphide setting. These results support the concept that if larger accumulations of massive sulphide exist at the Lantern prospect then there is a strong likelihood that the sulphides will be of high nickel tenor.
The analysis has assisted in developing additional drill ready targets at Lantern South, with the Company to accelerate exploration into the following quarter.
Norseman Project, WA
While Galileo has been focussed on developing its Fraser Range project, during the period the Company also advanced exploration at its Norseman nickel-copper-cobalt project, which occurs at the southern end of the Norseman-Wiluna greenstone belt. 1,726 soil samples have recently been collected targeting areas with strong

potential for nickel. Results from this campaign have been lodged post quarter-end (see ASX announcement dated: 13 January 2021).

A specialist remote sensing company was contracted over the quarter to collect hyperspectral data and to integrate the new mineral mapping information with existing data sets, including the recently received soil assays. The initial phase of this contract has been completed with the collection of the airborne data. Data interpretation utilising machine learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI) software is ongoing.
A follow up exploration program will be devised upon the completion of all data integration and analysis. This is expected to occur in late February with the results to be utilised in the planning of drill programs scheduled for Q2 2021.
