EXTENSION OF COPPER/GOLD MINERALISATION AT TRAFALGAR

  • Restricted drilling program at Trafalgar confirms extension of mineralisation to the north with new zones of mineralisation to the west of the deposit. Intercepts include :

  • 16m at 0.88% Cu and 0.34g/t Au from 192m in HMTRRC006, including:

    • 9m @ 1.28% Cu and 0.5g/t Au from 195m;
  • 19m at 0.70% Cu and 0.17g/t Au from 117m in HMTRRC007, including

    • 6m @ 1.58% Cu and 0.38g/t Au from 126m ; and
  • 35m at 0.42% Cu and 0.07g/t Au from 175m in HMTRRC008; including:

    • 6m @ 1.15% Cu and 0.2g/t Au from 185m
  • Detailed geological mapping along the Trafalgar trend has identified the presence of an extensive red rock-magnetite alteration zone which spans the central mineralised trend and extends along strike for 2.7km

  • The presence of magnetite and elevated light rare earth elements (with individual maximum grades of 0.20% Ce and 0.16% La in HMTRC006) are all indicative of mineralisation associated with an Iron Oxide Copper Gold (“IOCG”) system

  • The transfer of the Joint Venture between Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (“JOGMEC") and Sumitomo Metal Mining Oceania Pty. Ltd. (“SMMO”) has been completed

  • Aggressive work program and budget for the JV is agreed with SMMO and includes further exploration and drilling along the 4km Trafalgar trend

  • Downhole Electromagnetic (“DHEM”), ground electromagnetic, gravity and soil geochemistry surveys commenced last week

  • Follow up drilling along the Trafalgar trend planned to commence in midlate October

Hammer’s Managing Director, Daniel Thomas said:

“With a limited budget and work program in place during the transfer of the Mount Isa East Joint Venture to SMMO, drilling has successfully extended mineralisation to the north of Trafalgar with new zones of mineralisation being identified to the west. Following the recent completion of the transfer of the JV, Hammer has now recommenced an aggressive exploration program pursuing mineralised zones along the 4km trend at Trafalgar and elsewhere within the JV area. Several exciting targets remain to be tested with targeting being refined in the coming weeks with detailed geophysical and geochemical surveys.

We continue to see long delays associated with laboratory turnaround times, with results still pending from Hammer’s drilling at its 100% owned prospects at Overlander, Serendipity, Kalman West and follow up drilling at Lakeview.”

Trafalgar

The Trafalgar Cu-Au prospect is located on the regional scale Fountain Range Fault. The Joint Venture originally drilled four holes with results reported to the ASX on 20 January and 9 February 2021. Drilling indicated that the lode has a mineralised envelope of approximately 15-30m in true thickness with a peripheral magnetite alteration halo associated with elevated light rare earths (cerium and lanthanum).

Significant intersections in this first program included:

  • 55m at 1.12% Cu and 0.30g/t Au from 119m in HMTRRC001 including :

  • 16m at 1.77% Cu and 0.49g/t Au from 149m ; and

  • 60m at 1.04% Cu and 0.25g/t Au from 64m in HMTRRC002 including :

  • 6m at 2.38% Cu and 1.45g/t Au from 91m -.

Latest Drilling Results

The aim of the recent program at Trafalgar was to test along strike from previous intersections and to test for the presence of hanging wall mineralised zones. A limited drilling program of five holes for 970m were undertaken during this program. Significant intersections from this program includes:

  • 16m at 0.88% Cu and 0.34g/t Au from 192m in HMTRRC006, including:

  • 9m @ 1.28% Cu and 0.5g/t Au from 195m;

  • 19m at 0.70% Cu and 0.17g/t Au from 117m in HMTRRC007, including

  • 6m @ 1.58% Cu and 0.38g/t Au from 126m ; and

  • 35m at 0.42% Cu and 0.07g/t Au from 175m in HMTRRC008; including:

  • 6m @ 1.15% Cu and 0.2g/t Au from 185m

HMTRRC006 confirmed that the main mineralised zone if open along strike to the north. On the southern margin of the Trafalgar open pit the presence of a fault zone has been confirmed with surface mapping indicating an offset in the region of 70m to 100m with the Trafalgar mineralised zone being displaced to the east.

HMTRRC005 was designed to intersect the lode on the southern end of Trafalgar however direction was lost and the hole was terminated prior to intersecting the displaced lode. An opportunity for further testing of this zone was not possible with the finite budget and drilling program agreed during JOGMEC’s sales process of their interest in the Joint Venture. The southern extension will be considered as a potential target zone in the upcoming drilling program.

Trafalgar Trend

Recent field mapping has identified outcropping copper mineralisation within the 4km trend with coincident magnetic and soil anomalies. Numerous workings occur along this trend which is composed of multiple subparallel vein zones. With the exception of Trafalgar, this trend is not tested by drilling.

Alteration, the presence of Magnetite and elevated light rare earth elements (with individual maximum grades of 0.20% Ce and 0.16% La in HMTRC006) are all indicative of an IOCG system. Geological mapping indicates the presence of a red rock-magnetite alteration zone which spans the central mineralised trend and extends along strike.

At a broader scale the Trafalgar trend is marked by an attenuated magnetic and conductive highs which highlight the target zone for immediate exploration and future drill testing.

Next Steps at Trafalgar

The joint venture has recently commenced work programs across the Trafalgar trend including geological mapping, downhole/ground electromagnetic, gravity and geochemical soil surveys. The extent of the ground electromagnetic survey is shown in Figure 2 and will focus on a zone of several historical workings which were developed in the early 1900’s exploiting localised zones of high-grade copper ore.

Several high priority targets exist along the Trafalgar trend including old workings at The Springs, Lady Northcote and Victory. The current field programs will aid targeting and further define prospects along this mineralized trend with drilling at these prospects expected to commence in mid-late October this year.

JORC Table 1 report – Mount Isa Project Exploration Update

  • This table is to accompany an ASX release updating the market with drilling at the Trafalgar Prospect located within the Mt Isa Project Area.

  • The drilling reported herein was conducted on EPM26776.

  • All ancillary information presented in figures herein has previously been reported to the ASX.

  • Historic exploration data noted in this, and previous releases has been compiled and validated. It is the opinion of Hammer Metals that the exploration data are reliable.

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections in this information release.)

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.
5 reverse circulation holes for 970m are
reported herein.
Drill chip samples were taken at dominantly
1m intervals. When multiple metre intervals
were sampled, a riffle split of each metre
interval was conducted with the split portions
then being combined to produce a composite
sample.
Where mineralisation was anticipated or
encountered, the sample length was reduced
to 1m with lab submission of the 1m samples.
The average sample length and weight for the
assays reported herein is 1.2m and 3.51kg
respectively.
All samples submitted for assay underwent
fine crush with 1kg riffled off for pulverising to
75 microns.
Samples were submitted to SGS in Townsville
for:
• Fire Assay with AAS finish for gold.
• 4 acid digest followed by ICP-MS and
ICP-OES for a 49 element suite.
Portable XRF analysis was conducted in the
field on each 1m interval.
Reanalyses will be conducted as required to
investigate element repeatability.
Drilling
techniques
Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-
hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka,
sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter,
triple or standard tube, depth of diamond
tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether
core is oriented and if so, by what method,
etc).
Holes were drilled by DDH1 drilling using a
Sandvik DE840 (UDR1200) drilling rig.
The holes were drilled by the reverse
circulation method. The reverse circulation
technique which uses a face sampling hammer
to reduce contamination.

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.
Drill holes were oriented as close to
perpendicular as possible to the orientation of
the targets based on interpretation of previous
exploration, however true width estimations
will not be conducted until there are two drill
hole intersections present on each section.
Sample
security
The measures taken to ensure sample

0.1g/t Au cut-off with included intercepts
highlighting zones of increased copper
and/or gold and cobalt grade.
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’). _
The relationship between intersected and
true widths for both prospects drilled is not
known with certainty until further drilling
has been conducted.
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with
scales) and tabulations of intercepts should
be included for any significant discovery
being reported These should include, but
not be limited to a plan view of drill hole
collar locations and appropriate sectional
_views. _
See attached figures.
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 avoiding misleading reporting of
Exploration Results.
DRILLING
Intercepts are quoted at a 0.2% Cu and/or
0.1g/t Au cut-off with included intercepts
highlighting zones of increased copper
and/or gold and cobalt grade.
Portions of a drillhole that are not quoted in
the intercept table contain grades less that
the quoted cut-off.

Criteria **JORC Code explanation ** Commentary
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,
geotechnical
and
rock
characteristics;
potential
deleterious
or
contaminating
_substances. _
All relevant information is disclosed in the
attached release and/or is set out in this
JORC Table 1.
Further work The nature and scale of planned further
work (eg tests for lateral extensions or
depth extensions or large-scale step-out
drilling).
Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of
possible extensions, including the main
geological interpretations and future drilling
areas, provided this information is not
commercially sensitive.
Hammer Metals Limited is awaiting further
drill results from the Lab. There has been
serious turnaround time delays due to both
COVID and current industry activity.
