Dear Sir/Madam
March 2014 Quarterly Report Of Activities & Cashflow
Please find following the March, 2014 Quarterly Report of Activities and Cashflow for Bass Metals Limited (ASX:BSM) ( Bass or the Company ).
1. Introduction
Bass Metals’ activities over the past quarter have focussed on the search for potential new opportunities for the Company, whilst continuing exploration activities and environmental works in Tasmania. The board continues to seek and implement cost cutting measures, resulting in further decreases in corporate overheads.
2. Environmental activities, Tasmania
Bass environmental staff continued to conduct rehabilitation operations on the Northern NAF dump at the Que River Mine. Contouring and topsoil application operations were finalised on this area and the site is currently being reseeded for expected spring germination.
The 2014 Que River Closure plan is being developed for presentation to Bass directors and the relevant government departments. This paper will outline the steps required to bring the site to full closure if recommended by Bass management.
Bass environmental staff continue to conduct daily site field analysis and weekly/monthly and quarterly laboratory sampling of the area as per Tasmanian EPA requirement.
3. Exploration, Tasmania
During the Quarter Bass completed a 550 sample, soil sampling program, over parts of the Mt Block and Mt Charter tenements (Figure 1). The aim of the sampling was to increase coverage of Bass’ modern multi-element sampling of the highly prospective “corridor” between the Mt Charter and Hellyer deposits. The method has been shown by Bass to be effective in detecting deeply buried mineralisation. The current survey will be used to refine existing and define new drill targets. Assay results for the program are awaited.

During the June Quarter, geochemical sampling and short wave infrared (SWIR) spectral analysis will commence on historic drill core from around twenty drill holes on the Sock Creek Exploration Licence. This program will apply modern geochemical methods, to explore rocks that are correlates of the volcanics hosting the Que-Hellyer orebodies. The targeted stratigraphy is host to known zinc mineralisation at the Sock Creek and Sock Creek South prospects.

In addition to ongoing regional exploration of the Tasmanian tenements, Bass is continuing its assessment of potential for development of a number of small resources previously delineated in the vicinity of the Hellyer tenements.

4. Opportunities
The Board of Bass Metals are currently in discussions with a number of parties who hold exploration and development assets, both in Australia and overseas. These assets are being examined as potential opportunities for Bass to diversify its interests outside of Tasmania, and to enhance investor interest in the Company. The Board will provide further information on these discussions as and when they progress to a definitive stage.
