Quarterly Activities Report – September 2016

HIGHLIGHTS

Plavica Au-Ag-Cu Project

  • The extensional and infill drilling program continued at Plavica during the quarter ended 30 September 2016 ( Quarter ). A total of 10 core holes were drilled for a total of 2,321.65m and 8 RC holes were also drilled for 1051m. Drilling is ongoing at Plavica and the Company plans to release a JORC 2012 compliant resource in the following Quarter.

  • Results have been returned for 2 of the holes drilled this Quarter plus outstanding results from 33 holes drilled last Quarter. Results were generally encouraging and included:

  • MRDD032: 129.8m @ 1.20 g/t Au from 12m from the Maricanski Rid prospect.

  • PNRC105: 51m @ 1.98 g/t Au from 78m from the Plavica prospect.

EXPLORATION & DEVELOPMENT PROGRESS DURING THE QUARTER

REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA

PLAVICA HIGH SULPHIDATION EPITHERMAL GOLD-COPPER-SILVER PROJECT (Figures 1 & 2)

Following the granting of the 30-year Exploitation Licence at Plavica in May 2015, drilling has since focussed on extending and better understanding the previously known mineralisation at both the Plavica and Maricanski Rid prospects with a focus on the oxide gold potential. During the Quarter, drilling has continued at both of these prospects using one core rig and one Reverse Circulation (RC) rig with the aim of re-doing the Inferred Resource at Plavica and completing a maiden Inferred Resource at Maricanski Rid in the following Quarter. Delays were experienced from poor assay turnaround due to political unrest in Turkey. One core rig and one RC rig are currently in operation. Genesis hopes to unveil a JORC compliant resource in November 2016.

At Plavica a total of 4 core holes for 1427.45m and 2 RC holes for 408m were completed. Results are pending. In addition, results were received for the holes drilled in the June Quarter (Table 2). Results include:

PNDD080: 20m @ 1.55 g/t Au from 111m & 53.3m @ 1.67 g/t Au from 152m.PNRC105: 51m @ 1.98 g/t Au from 78m.

As drilling was focussed mainly on the gold oxide part of the mineralisation at Plavica, copper (which is rare in the oxide material) assays were relatively low grade. The best results were in hole PNDD081 which had 6m @ 1.02 % Cu from 122m and 13m @ 0.84 % Cu from 160m.

At Maricanski Rid a total of 6 core holes for 894.2m and 6 RC holes for 643m were completed. Results have been received for two of the RC holes with the rest still pending. Results were also received for the holes drilled in the June Quarter (Tables 3 and 4). Results include:

MRDD032: 129.8m @ 1.20 g/t Au from 12m.

MRRC001: 76m @ 2.01 g/t Au from 0m.

All drill collar locations drilled this Quarter are shown in Table 1 and Figure 2. Composites from results received this Quarter are shown in Tables 3, 4 and 5. A section from Maricanski Rid showing holes MRDD028, MRDD029 and MRDD032 is shown as Figure 3.

Genesis aims to complete a JORC compliant Resource in the 4th Quarter of 2016. Genesis then expects to complete a feasibility study before December 2017, and has agreed to commit up to US $7.5m for these activities.

About Genesis Resources Limited

Genesis Resources Limited is an Australian company with a portfolio of quality gold, iron, manganese, uranium and base metal (copper-zinc-silver) in the highly prospective Proterozoic and Phanerozoic metallogenic provinces of northern and central Australia. Genesis has signed a Joint Venture over an advanced copper-gold project (Plavica) within the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. The Plavica Project lies within Carpathian Volcanic Arc, a major epithermal province running through Eastern Europe, which is highly prospective for gold, copper and silver mineralisation. Genesis’ projects are close to established infrastructure including railways, shipping ports, highways, power stations and populated areas. The Company’s objective is to provide rapid capital growth through mineral discoveries and development of economic deposits in Australia and overseas.

Beneath this oxide zone is a series of steeply dipping E-W striking

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.
A 0.4 g/t Au cut-off is used for reporting of Au grades and a 0.3 % for
Cu grades. No top cuts are used.
A minimum of 3m length is used for compositing and a maximum of
3m of internal waste is used. These parameters are considered
adequate for this deposit style.
No metal equivalents used
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values
should be clearly stated.

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 (e.g. ‘down hole length, true
width not known’).
Holes are drilled on 45 to 60 degree angles to intersect the zones at
the highest angle possible but also taking into account the steep
topography of the area and the difficulty of locating drill pads. As a
result the mineralized zones are intersected at an oblique angle and
therefore down-hole lengths are not true widths.
