ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 19 August 2020

Rio Tinto hits 33m at 1.9% Copper and 0.65gpt Gold in Maiden Drill Hole at Cactus Canyon

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Maiden assays received for part of the first drill hole at Cactus Canyon Prospect, which is a first “Tier one” test of a 3km strike length mineralised Cu Au system

  • Cu-Au mineralisation was intersected over 66m at 1% Cu, 0.33 g/t Au, 37 ppm Mo and 4.2 g/t Ag from 219m to 285m

  • This includes a higher-grade interval of 33m at 1.9% Cu, 0.65 g/t Au, 7.1g/t Ag and 68 ppm Mo from 252m to 285m

  • Assays ended in mineralisation with results from the remaining 92m of hole pending

  • Drilling represents the best intersection drilled to date at the Cactus Canyon Prospect

  • Further assay results from Rio Tinto’s program are expected later this month, with three holes of a four-hole program complete

  • Rio Tinto is earning up to 70% interest in the Frisco Project through three stages totalling US$30 million exploration expenditure.

Alderan Resources Limited (ASX: AL8) ( Alderan or the Company ) is pleased to provide initial drill results from Rio Tinto subsidiary Kennecott Exploration’s ( KEX ) drilling at Alderan’s Frisco copper/gold/silver project ( Frisco Project ) in Utah, USA, where KEX is earning up to 70% interest by spending US$30 million on exploration.

Kennecott completed two drill holes designed to test the possible continuity of mineralisation between the Cactus and Comet Cu-Au prospects as part of the project wide, four-hole program. Cactus and Comet are part of a potentially 3-kilometre strike length mineral system within the Frisco Project, defined by historical mining, previous drilling by Alderan and airborne magnetics (Figure 1).

Commenting on the maiden results, Alderan Managing Director Peter Williams said:

“We are thrilled with the results of the first drill hole drilled by Rio Tinto a part of their exploration effort to discover a significant commercial mineralised system. This hole extends the mineralised system and hints at very highgrade copper, gold and molybdenum within the mineralised system. There seems to be an interesting relationship between gold and copper, that is maintained from the low grade (1% Cu) to the higher grade, where 1% Cu appears to contain about 0.3 g/t Au. The high-grade copper is in part massive sulphide, which may be able to be mapped out using modern EM technologies, be they borehole, surface and/or airborne. We look forward to further updates by Rio and their continued work in unlocking this potential high-grade copper system.”

Figure 1: Image of the airborne magnetics (first vertical derivative) for the Cactus Comet area. The purple cross marks the hole collar position of SAWM0001. The purple arrows indicate the mineralised Cactus-Comet trend. Blue colours are localised shallow sourced magnetic lows which coincide with the tops of the mineralised breccia pipes (refer ASX announcement 28 June 2017).

Both holes have intersected the breccias. Initial assays from the first drill hole (SAWM0001) have been received, confirming the presence of breccia hosted Cu-Au mineralisation outside of the known prospects (Figure 2).

SAWM0001intersected mineralised breccia from 219m to 285m with an average grade of the 66m intersection being 1% Cu; 0.33 g/t Au; 4.2 g/t Ag, 37 ppm Mo . This includes a higher-grade interval of 33m , from 252m to 285m, with an average grade of 1.9% Cu, 0.65 g/t Au, 7.1g/t Ag and 68 ppm Mo (Figure 3a) within which there is a higher-grade intercept which contains massive sulphide, grading up to 14% Cu.

These drill results compliment past drilling completed which includes:[1]

Section 1 - Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criterial in this section apply to all succeeding sections)

Criteria of
JORC Code
2012
JORC Code (2012) explanation Details of the Reported Project
Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g.
cut channels, random chips, or
specific
specialized
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.
Standard procedure of the diamond core drilling and drill core sampling was used. Half of the core was collected
by cutting the drill core using diamond saw. Samples length varies from 0.42 to 3.27m, average length is 1.87m
(Figure A1).
Figure A1: length of the drill core samples
All samples are logged and supplied to ALS laboratory in Nevada, USA, for preparation and analysis.
Include reference to measures taken
to ensure sample representivity and
the appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools
or systems
used.
In order to assure good representativity of the samples the holes were initially (from 0 to 180m) drilled using the
PQ size of the drill bits, and were finished (from 180m to the end of the hole) using the HQ drill bits. Average
sample weight sent to the laboratory was 7kg.
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
(e.g. ‘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 (e.g. submarine
nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailed information.
Standard procedure of using a diamond core drilling was applied. Samples, average length is 1.87m and average
weight is 7kg. were collected by cutting the drill core using diamond saw. Samples were delivered to the ALS
laboratory for preparation and assaying using conventional techniques.
Drilling
techniques
Drill
type
(e.g.
core,
reverse
circulation,
open-hole
hammer,
rotary air blast, auger, Bangka,
sonic, etc) and details (e.g. 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).
Diamond core drilling using a standard drill rig, Boart LF-90. PQ and HQ size drill core were used.
Drill
sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries and
results assessed.
Drill core recovery was documented using linear measurement method. The average recovery was approximately
85%, and approximately 75% when drilled through the mineralised breccia.
Measures taken to maximise sample
recovery and ensure representative
nature of the samples.
Drilling parameters were adjusted to maximise recovery.
Whether
a
relationship
exists
between sample recovery and grade
and whether sample bias may have
occurred
due
to
preferential
loss/gain of fine/coarse material.
No relationships between recovery and grade.
Logging Whether core and chip samples
have
been
geologically
and
geotechnically logged to a level of
detail to support appropriate Mineral
Resource estimation, mining studies
and metallurgical studies.
All samples were geologically logged, including rock types, alteration, textures, tectonic features.
Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or
costean, channel, etc) photography.
Logging was quantitative and qualitative. Qualitative logging includes diagnostics of the rocks, minerals, alteration
patterns and tectonic features. Quantitative logging includes the following:

Measurement of the magnetic susceptibility

Diagnostic of the alteration minerals using the VNIR and SWIR (spectrometer) techniques. This was
made in the Laboratory.

Rock assays through ALS laboratory

Measurement of the Alpha angle of the selected planar structures (e.g. veins, faults)
100% of the core was photographed.
The total length and percentage of
the relevant intersections logged.
100% of the drill holes were logged.
Sub-sampling
techniques
and
sample
preparation
If core, whether cut or sawn and
whether quarter, half or all core
taken
The core was sawn by diamond saw:

½ core was collected as a sample, the rest left in the core tray for additional studies.
When duplicate sample was collected for QAQC purposes, the half core was sawn in a half and each ¼ of a core
was used as sample and duplicate.
If non-core, whether riffled, tube
sampled,
rotary
split,
etc
and
whether sampled wet or dry.
Not applicable.
For all sample types, the nature,
quality and appropriateness of the
sample preparation technique.
Standard sample preparation technique developed by ALS (Figure A2) and broadly used by the mining companies
in the region was used in the project.
Figure A2: sample preparation protocol used by the ALS laboratory
Quality control procedures adopted
for all sub-sampling stages to
maximise representivity of samples.
Grinding and pulverising stages were checked by using the control sieving assuring that material meets the criteria
defined by the sample preparation protocol (Figure A2). Crush and pulp duplicates were included by ALS during
analysis. Pulp duplicates included by ALS at a rate of 1 in 7.4 samples. Crush duplicates included by ALS at a
rate of 1 in 81 samples.
Measures taken to ensure that the
sampling is representative of the in-
situ material collected, including for
instance
results
for
field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
Filed duplicates were systematically collected. This was made by cutting the half into two ¼ core. One was used
as the original sample and second as duplicate.
Whether
sample
sizes
are
appropriate to the grain size of the
material being sampled.
Samples, average length is 1.87m and average weight is 7kg are appropriate for Cu-Au sulphide mineralisation
hosted by the tourmaline-rich breccias.
Quality
of
assay
data
and laboratory
tests
The
nature,
quality
and
appropriateness of the assaying and
laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered
partial or total.
All samples were assayed using ICP-MS (ME-MS61L method of ALS) which has detection limits Cu – 0.02ppm,
S – 0.01% and Ag - 0.002ppm. Gold was assayed using FA method with ICP-AES finish (Au-ICP21 of ALS) with
detection limit 1 ppb (Figure A3).

etc.
Portable XRF was used solely for rock diagnostic purposes and not included into the reported grade.
Nature of quality control procedures
adopted (e.g. standards, blanks,
duplicates,
external
laboratory
checks) and whether acceptable
levels of accuracy (i.e. lack of bias)
and
precision
have
been
established.
Quality control procedures were as follows:

Certified standards (OREAS-504c and MZ0150) were systematically used for assays quality control.
Standard samples are inserted with every submitted batch of the samples, commonly every 10th
sample was standard (i.e. ~10% of the drill core samples).

Duplicate samples analysis

Using of the blank samples
Results of the QAQC reported by the project geologist were as follows (conclusions of the QAQC analysis are
highlighted using the bold fonts):
QAQC Notes
EB80002890 / EL20129685
16 July 2020
Duplicates:
The lab crush process duplicate for sample 40220203 (40220203-LCrush) had poor reproducibility for Ag. Original
sample reported 1.415 ppm, duplicate reported 0.244 ppm. No other elements affected. Not in a Cu mineralized
zone, sosample was allowed to pass QC.
The lab pulp analytical duplicate for sample 40220293 (40220293-LPulp) had poor reproducibility for Au by the
four acid digest method (4HSIMS). Due to the very small sample size digested, this method is not suitable for
gold and Rio Tinto Kennecott (KEX) does not use these results. The Au by fire assay (F30ICP) results for this
sample had no issues.
Blanks:
There was elevated Cu in blank sample 40220300 (to 27.1 ppm). The preceding samples had elevated Cu results
so the contamination could have been carryover during prep on the crusher (sample 40220299 reported 1.745 %
Cu) or from the pulverizer (sample 40220298 reported 1.445 % Cu).Normalizing against sample weights, the
elevated blank is well within the allowed tolerance for up to 10% carryover between samples.
Standards:
No issues were found.The QC graphs did not print performance gates for Cu or Au for OREAS-504c; these
standard values were manually validated and passed. Mo trended low in two MZ0150 CRMs, but this standard
typically trends low through ALS Vancouver, the results were not outside the <3SD failure gate, and the two low
results were not sequential in the batch.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
The
verification
of
significant
intersections by either independent
or alternative company personnel.
Not applicable. The current drilling program include two drill holes that were designed to test the exploration model
suggesting presence of tourmaline-breccia hosted mineralisation outside of the known prospects.
The use of twinned holes. Not applicable.
Documentation of primary data, data
entry procedures, data verification,
data
storage
(physical
and
electronic) protocols.
All drill holes logged electronically.
The primary field data were logged directly into the acQuire database and check/verified by the database
administrator together with the project geologists.
The interim field storages were not used, because all primary data were captured directly into the acQuire
_database stored on the company’s server, which is regularly backed up. _
Discuss any adjustment to assay
data.
No adjustments are made, and it is believed that data does not require any additional adjustments.
Location
of
data points
Accuracy and quality of surveys
used to locate drill holes (collar and
down-hole surveys), trenches, mine
workings and other locations used in
Mineral Resource estimation.
Drill hole collars are located using handheld GPS. Reported accuracy of the instrument is approximately +/- 3m
in horizontal dimensions. RL of the collars is deduced by projecting the collars onto the DTM surface.
Down hole survey is made by Reflex tool (ReflexEZTrac) with the measurements taken approximately at 30m in
the drill hole SAWM0002 and approximately 60m intervals in the SAWM0001.
Specification of the grid system
used.
All data are recorded in a UTM zone 12 (North) NAD83 grid.
Quality and adequacy of topographic
control.
DTM file generated using the LiDAR data was used for in the current drilling programme for estimation the RLs of
the drill hole collars.
Data spacing
and
distribution
Data
spacing
for
reporting
of
Exploration Results.
The current report includes 2 exploration drill holes drilled into a space between known prospects. The results will
be sufficient to establish the presence of the Cu-Au mineralisation and determine the geological type and style of
the mineralisation but will be insufficient for establishing the geological and grade continuities.
Whether the data spacing and
distribution is sufficient to establish
the degree of geological and grade
continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource
and
Ore
Reserve
estimation
procedure(s)
and
classifications applied.
The reported here 2 drill holes are insufficient for estimation of the Mineral Resources.
Whether sample compositing has
been applied.
Samples were collected and assayed without physical compositing.
Orientation of
data
in
relation
to
geological
structure
Whether the orientation of sampling
achieves unbiased sampling of
possible structures and the extent to
which this is known, considering the
deposit type.
Steeply drilling exploration holes was drilled with an objective to test the space between the two know breccia-
pipes. Presence of the mineralisation in this area was uncertain and therefore the geometry of the potential
mineralisation was not known too. Therefore, the author concludes that the chosen orientation of the drill holes
was appropriate for the given exploration task.
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.
Mineralisation hosted by the breccia pipes is lacking the preferential orientation (Figure A4) therefore orientation
of the drill holes will not introduce sampling biases.
Figure A4: Tourmaline breccia-pipe, Cactus abondoned mine.
Sample
security
The measures taken to ensure
sample security
Samples were submitted to the lab by the company personnel following the guidelines and procedures of the Rio
Tinto Exploration (Kennecott). Only authorised personnel have attended the samples.
Audits
or
reviews
The results of any audits or reviews
of sampling techniques and data.
Internal review of the drilling results by the company management is routinely used through the course of the
project.

Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results,
weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum grade
truncations (e.g. cutting of high
grades) and cut-off grades are
usually Material and should be
stated.
Grade of the intersection was estimated using length weighting average technique.
Contacts of the mineralisation are sharp and this is coupled with increase of the sulphur concentration from 0.6
to 2.18%. The intersection reported in this announcement was defined to these contacts.
High-grade cutting was not used in this study, mainly because assay results are lacking excessively high-grade
values
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)
The assumptions used for any
reporting
of
metal
equivalent
values should be clearly stated.
Not applicable. Metal equivalent values are not reported.
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.
The mineralisation width is not known. The reported information represents the down-hole length of the
intersected mineralisation.
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’).
True width is not known. Downhole length is reported.

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. Figure A6: map showing the drillholes completed by KEX and reported in this announcement. Historic drillholes are shown for the reference using dark blue colour. The areas, outlined by light-blue dashed lines, denote the mineralsed breccia pipe prospects interpreted from the airmag data coupled with the historic mining data

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 to avoid misleading
reporting of Exploration Results.
