Pan Pacific Joint Venture (Projects Located in North West province, Qld)
Pan Pacific Copper Co Ltd , through their Australian registered subsidiary Cloncurry Exploration & Development Pty Ltd have completed the farm in phase and have elected to continue exploration and development of the tenement areas. The Joint Venture Agreement was executed in October 2017.
The Joint Venture Agreement with a major strategic global partner continues to support a key strategy for GBM where the Iron Oxide Copper Gold projects can be further explored with the level of funding required to realise a new discovery.
SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT
No LTI or environmental incidents were reported during the September Quarter. GBM is committed to continuously improving safety and environment systems with the clear aim of achieving zero harm and have now completed 71 consecutive months with no LTI’s and 117 consecutive months with no significant environmental incidents.
Gold Projects
Mount Coolon Gold Project, Queensland (100% GBM)
Scoping Study Commissioned
During the last year the Company has completed a range of studies and field activities to assess the potential for recommencing mining at Mount Coolon.
The Scoping Study was commissioned in July 2017 and will incorporate the current mineral gold resources of the Koala, Glen Eva and Eugenia deposits. Process options to be considered will include both on site treatment with a Carbon in Leach gold plant, Heap Leach and/or Toll Milling.
The Scoping Study was extended in August to review the potential of new development options and is designed to bring together key aspects of the work completed to date into one coherent document providing a blue print for the future redevelopment of the Mount Coolon Project.
Additional new developments under review include:
-
I. Inclusion in the Scoping Study of a starter pit south of the current Koala North pit which may represent a lower startup capital cost and an improved time line regarding the environmental approval processes.
-
II. At Koala the main decline and shaft are reported to be in good condition and there is potential to go underground to access ore below the floor of the current pit design, potentially increasing gold production at Koala.
-
III. Consideration of a staged approach to construction of the processing facility which has been designed based on a relocatable CIL plant. The CIL circuit to be constructed as phase one which would provide the flexibility to initially treat the old tailings material. The second construction phase to follow with the crushing and grinding circuits to process fresh ore.
Key tasks being undertaken in the Scoping Study to include:
-
Re-optimisation of the Koala, Glen Eva and Eugenia open pit designs based on upgraded resources using inputs derived from recently completed metallurgical testwork, current plant design and geotechnical data from recent drilling.
-
Preliminary treatment plant design and scale.
-
Mine layout design and infrastructure.
-
Tailings Storage.
-
Water management plan.
-
Ore sale and or toll milling opportunities.
Since acquiring the Mount Coolon Gold project the Company has been updating and expanding the known resources at Koala, Glen Eva and Eugenia, to support options for near term production. The Study is now nearing completion.
Background to the Mount Coolon Gold Project
In January 2015 GBM announced the signing of a binding Share Sale Agreement with Drummond Gold Limited (ASX: DGO) pursuant to which GBM acquired a 100% interest in the issued capital of Mt Coolon Gold Mines Pty Ltd. This transaction was completed during April (refer ASX announcement 13 April 2015) .
The project is located 250km west of Mackay in Queensland in the northern Drummond Basin. The Drummond Basin is an established gold mining region with past production of more than 4.5 Mozs and a total known gold endowment of over 7.5 Mozs of gold. Deposit styles range from bonanza grade epithermal veins (eg. Pajingo 3.0 M ozs) to bulk tonnage intrusive related gold deposits (eg Mt Leyshon 2.1 M ozs).
The tenement package includes four granted Mining Leases, and four granted exploration permits covering a total area of 773 km[2] . Independent review of these tenements has confirmed that all are in good standing and key mining licences are current until 2024.

Copper Gold Projects
- Pan Pacific Copper Farm in Projects, Mount Isa Region, Queensland
Introduction
During 2016-17 Pan Pacific Copper through their Australian registered subsidiary Cloncurry Exploration & Development Pty Ltd ( CED) have completed the Farm In Phase covering the Mt Margaret, Bungalien , Chumvale (within the Brightlands ) and Talawanta / Grassy Bore Project areas.
A Joint Venture Agreement has been finalized and executed in October 2017 and will formally commence when CED provide official notice. CED will hold approximately 51.3% and GBM 48.7% interest respectively in the projects. Under the terms of the JV, GBM will continue as manager and retain its free carried interest of 10% through to completion of a bankable feasibility study. The signing of a Joint Venture Agreement represents a key step forward in that the projects can be further advanced and have the required level of funding to target a potential new discovery.
Work Program
A budget of $430,000 has been agreed to for exploration on the Cloncurry Projects for the current year (to March 30[th] 2018). During the September quarter, gravity programs were designed and executed at FC2 and Tommy Creek prospects and a 3DIP program designed for FC2 (see figures below).
At the FC2 prospect a total of 266 ground gravity points were measured as infill to the existing GBM grid. Grid point spacing is now at 100x100m over key areas of the prospect. Processing of the merged gravity dataset to remove the very steep regional gradient (high-pass filter) reveals a large and discrete anomaly of approximately 2 mgal intensity over a >4 km[2] area at FC2. An overlay of gravity contours on the detailed GBM airborne magnetics data shows the gravity and magnetic response is generally coincident.
GBM drilled two diamond holes in 2014/15 to test an overlapping gravity-magnetic-IP chargeability high on the eastern edge of the greater FC2 anomaly (drill holes MMA007 & 010). The drilling returned encouraging copper-gold mineralisation and IOCG-type alteration. Elevated downhole rock density, magnetic response and sulphide concentration indicates the three geophysical survey methods in combination are effective IOCG target generators at FC2 prospect. This encouragement justified the planning of 3DIP grid extensions to cover the remainder of the FC2 gravity-magnetic anomaly. The 3DIP program is scheduled to commence early in the December quarter.
At the Tommy Creek prospect 269 infill ground gravity points were measured resulting in grid point spacing of 100x50m over the main portion of the anomaly. The regional gradient at Tommy Creek is not as pronounced as at FC2 and processing reveals a very well defined double-peak anomaly of greater than 2 mgals intensity. The western ‘lobe’ is the stronger of the two and coincides with a cuspate magnetic high. Reprocessing of the broad-spaced IP survey data completed by Xstrata showed electrical geophysical methods at Tommy Creek are influenced by conductive overburden and as such further IP surveying is not planned by GBM. The Tommy Creek anomaly is interpreted to lie beneath approximately 100m of cover sediments and has never been drill tested.

Mount Morgan Project, Rockhampton Region, Queensland
Mt Usher Gold Project
During the quarter, GBM undertook an initial program of surface mapping, rock-chip sampling and airborne drone topographic-imagery surveying at the Mt Usher prospect. A review of historical mine references and modern exploration was also completed. Mapping has defined for the first time a continuous fault, sulphide alteration and lode quartz corridor of at least 5 km in strike length and 500 m wide enclosing the Mt Usher mine and numerous lesser production centres including the Anglo Saxon, Caledonian and Victor mines. This fault zone is hosted by mixed Devonian volcanic and sedimentary rocks at the eastern and western ends and by magnetic diorite or tonalite in the central zone. Gold mineralisation has developed in all rock types within the corridor.
A total of 96 rock-chip samples have so far been collected from within the Mt Usher fault system. Results for the first 19 rock-chip sample assays received from ALS Laboratories confirm high-grade gold is present in pyritic/limonitic quartz veins within the volcanic package at Mt Usher mine and the diorite at the Caledonian mine along strike to the west (peak 14.4 g/t Au). Anomalous Ag, Cu, Pb and Zn is also present, confirming the old miners’ reports of ‘blackjack(sphalerite), galena and carbonates of copper’ with pyrite in the ore zone. Highly anomalous Te (peak 10.1 ppm) shows a strong association with gold and silver in conjunction with Mo, Bi, Sb and As. This metal assemblage is similar to that reported from the ore system at Mt Morgan (Lawrence, 1974), with the addition of silver from galena, and is characteristic of higher-temperature epithermal and/or intrusive-related gold systems.

Table: Assay results received to date for Mt Usher rock-chip samples (ALS Laboratories, Brisbane). Refer ASX announcement 12 September 2017.
The Devonian volcanic-sedimentary package at Mt Usher is interpreted to be part of the Mt Warner Volcanics, the same rock suite that hosts Mt Morgan located 12 km to the south-west. A major north-east trending lineament links the two deposits. The Mt Morgan Lineament is defined by mapped faults, magnetics and gold occurrences and is orientated parallel with Mt Morgan mine faults. Modern analysis indicates that the overprinting of pre-existing volcanic massive sulphide mineralisation (VHMS) by later intrusive-related Au-Cu bearing fluids from the adjacent tonalite unit was responsible for ore genesis at Mt Morgan. The fluid signature and the metal assemblage are indicative of an epithermal setting for the main mineralizing event (Ulrich, 2002), a theory supported by recent work by Corbett for GBM (Internal report, 2015).
GBM believes the Mt Usher fault corridor is highly prospective for near surface, high-grade vein-hosted, epithermal gold-silver mineralisation and that evidence is mounting for the existence of a deeper, large tonnage, high-grade Mt Morgan analogue within the prospect area. It seems remarkable given the extensive modern exploration effort to find another Mt Morgan that such limited attention has been paid to the second biggest producer, Mt Usher.
Further work at Mt Usher will include continued mapping and comprehensive rock-chip and soil sampling across the entire fault zone. Due to the steep topography and multiple parallel lodes, 3D modelling using GBM generated data and historical mine data will be critical for drill planning. A small diamond drilling program of three to four circa 300m holes in the vicinity of the main workings is scheduled late in 2017. Electrical geophysical methods will be considered to test for large, blind, massive-sulphide Mt Morgan style mineralisation.
