DIAMOND DRILLING UNDERWAY AT CROSSROADS PROSPECT

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Diamond drilling has commenced on the first of four diamond drill holes to test gold mineralisation at Crossroads prospect

  • Targets are:

    • down dip extensions of broad gold mineralised zone and location and intensity of W – Mo – As halo

    • extensions of gold mineralisation and the relationship between lithology and structures

NEXT STEPS:

  • DDH assays expected – Q3 2021

  • Compile DDH assays with structural and other data for target generation at Crossroads – Q3 2021

  • Compile and review all surface geochemical sampling data across the project area – Q3 2021

  • Further exploratory aircore and RC drilling – H2 2021/Q1 2022

“Moho is again fortunate to have secured West Core Drilling to undertake our maiden diamond drilling program at the Crossroads prospect. We are particularly looking forward to identifying the orientation of structures controlling the gold mineralisation intersected in the recent RC drilling program, and to then apply these findings to subsequent exploration programs.”

  • Mr. Shane Sadleir, Moho Managing Director

Moho Resources Ltd (ASX:MOH) ( Moho or the Company ) is pleased to announce diamond drilling has commenced at the Crossroads prospect (Figures 1 & 2). The Crossroads prospect, located in the WA Wheatbelt and about 22km west of the Edna May gold mine (Figure 3) is part of Moho’s Burracoppin Gold Project within E70/4688, which is subject to a 70:30 Joint venture with IGO Limited (“IGO”).

The four-hole coring program of approximately 600m has been designed to follow up mineralisation intersected in the January 2021 RC drilling program (see announcement 20 April 2021 “ Extensive Gold Mineralisation at Crossroads Prospect, Burracoppin ”), with the drill hole layout determined using an analysis of multielement geochemistry, geophysics and gold assay values.

The transported cover and clays of the saprolite down to the top of fresh rock will be drilled HQ[3] size (61mm diameter), and deeper fresh rock by NQ size (47mm diameter). This will maximise core recovery and minimise direct drilling costs whilst enabling the collection of high quality lithological, structural and geochemical data. The program is partially funded by the WA Government as part of its Exploration Incentive Scheme to test a potential Intrusive-Related Gold mineral system at the Crossroads prospect.

The diamond drill program has been designed with the following aims:

  • Obtain high quality core to study the geology more closely and refine Crossroads geological model, which can feed into any future drill program designs and resource modelling.

  • Reconciliation of rock type and geochemical zones identified by RC drilling with lithology, alteration, structures and textures seen in the core.

  • Identify the orientation of structures controlling the mineralisation.

  • To apply these findings to subsequent exploration programs.

NEXT STEPS:

  • DDH assays expected – Q3 2021

  • Compile DDH assays with structural and other data for target generation at Crossroads – Q3 2021

  • Compile and review all surface geochemical sampling data across the project area – Q3 2021

  • Further exploratory aircore and RC drilling – H2 2021/Q1 2022

MOHO’S INTEREST IN THE BURRACOPPIN PROJECT TENEMENTS:

Moho and IGO Limited (ASX:IGO) have now formed an unincorporated joint venture for the purposes of exploring and, if warranted, developing and mining on E70/4688. IGO’s 30% interest is free carried until completion of a pre-feasibility study, at which time IGO may elect to contribute pro-rata to ongoing work or convert its 30% interest to a 10% free carried interest.

In addition to Moho’s 70% interest in E70/4688, the Company owns a 100% interest in granted exploration tenements E70/5154, E70/5300-5302 and applications ELA70/5299 and E77/2671.
