Lake Mackay JV: First bedrock gold intersected at Goldbug Prospect

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Lake Mackay Project is 400km northwest of Alice Springs, adjacent to the Western Australian border, and comprises approximately 15,630km² of exploration licences and applications

  • 65 drill holes for 1,944m have been completed across six targets – including Goldbug gold Prospect, Grimlock nickel-cobalt Prospect, Grapple Prospect and first drilling also completed at the Swoop nickel-cobalt target

  • Bedrock gold intersected at Goldbug Prospect:

  • 20LMRC039 - 16m @ 1.15g/t Au, 4m @ 0.78g/t Au and 4m @ 1.54g/t Au

  • o 20LMRC041 – 8m @ 1.2g/t Au

  • Goldbug soil gold anomalism extends for 600m and is open to the east and north west - located 50km to the east of the Arcee Gold Prospect

  • Cobalt intersected in shallow drilling at the Swoop Prospect with results of up to 0.15% Co and 0.67% Ni in AC drilling

  • Additional cobalt and nickel results at the Grimlock target of up to 0.29% Co and 1.56% Ni in AC drilling

  • Follow up work including diamond drilling will be undertaken at Phreaker, Raw and Customisable, and RC drilling at Raw, Goldbug and Arcee is planned for H1 2021

Prodigy Gold NL (ASX: PRX) (“Prodigy Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to advise that results have returned for drilling completed on the Lake Mackay Project. The Lake Mackay Project is held in Joint Venture (“JV”) with IGO Limited (ASX: IGO), with IGO holding a 70% JV interest in the tenements and Prodigy Gold holding a 30% JV interest.

Recent work at Lake Mackay has been focused on drilling six targets prospective for cobalt-nickelmanganese, gold and copper mineralisation, with a total of 65 aircore holes for 1,944m completed in the most recent program.

Management Commentary

Prodigy Gold’s Managing Director Matt Briggs said:

==> picture [596 x 38] intentionally omitted <==

“The JV continues to systematically explore the large-scale Lake Mackay project for multiple styles of precious and base metals mineralisation, and these latest results have provided us with some encouraging insights. Bedrock gold has been intersected in RC drilling at Goldbug for the first time. This is a large-scale soil anomaly extending for over 600m. Goldbug is located 50km to the east of the Arcee Gold Prospect that yielded a previous result of 12m @ 3.5g/t (ASX 19 October 2019), so we have prioritised this target for further follow-up work.

Results from RC drilling at Grimlock have defined further cobalt and nickel mineralisation with results of up to 0.29% Co and 1.56% Ni. Cobalt has been intersected at Swoop in the first drilling with results of up to 0.15% Co in the recent drilling.

Diamond drilling at the Raw, Phreaker and Customisable targets and further RC drilling at Goldbug and Arcee are planned in 2021.”

Lake Mackay: Previous Exploration Summary

IGO commenced activity on the current Lake Mackay JV area in 2014. Systematic exploration led to the discovery of gold and base metal mineralisation at Bumblebee in 2015 and Grapple in 2016. Diamond drilling of Grapple in 2017 defined gold and copper mineralisation over 800m of plunge including a result of 11m @ 7.9g/t Au, 20.7g/t Ag, 0.8% Cu, 0.5% Pb, 1.1% Zn & 0.1% Co in 17GRDD001 (ASX 18 September 2017). In 2018, further work identified Ni, Co and Mn-bearing laterites. During 2018, IGO completed the $6M earn-in and the JV Project is funded 70/30.

Target Summary

Goldbug Prospect[1] is a 600m soil gold anomaly over Du Faur Orthoamphibolite. The target was originally identified through systematic soil sampling. Initial drilling in 2019 failed to identify the bedrock source of the soil gold anomaly. Goldbug is one of a number of soil gold anomalies at Lake Mackay.

The RC program of 3 holes for 278m drilled in late-2020 has successfully intersected bedrock gold mineralisation. Gold is associated with pyrite and quartz veining in an othoamphibolite. Best results are:

  • 20LMRC039 o 16m @ 1.5g/t Au from 48m

    • 4m @ 0.78g/t Au from 76m

    • 4m @ 1.54g/t Au from 92m

  • 20LMRC039

    • 8m @ 1.2g/t Au from 80m

Drillhole 20LMC040 was not drilled to a depth that would intersect the mineralisation that has now defined.

The strike of the structure is interpreted to be broadly east-west suggested by the long axis of the soil anomaly. The dip of the structure is unknown however is likely to be steep, as seen with other structures at Lake Mackay, or north dipping. Soil gold anomalism extends for over 600m and is open to the east and northwest. The prospect has significant volume potential and warrants further RC drilling in 2021.

The Grimlock Prospect has shallow enrichment of cobalt and nickel developed over weathered ultramafic phases on the margins of an intrusion. Initial surface sampling identified cobalt of over 2% (ASX 12 December 2019). RC drilling confirmed the results of surface sampling with elevated cobalt defined over 4km. Leach test work undertaken in 2019 demonstrated over 97% of cobalt is extractable (ASX 12 December 2019). The recent program aimed to define the scale potential of the prospect with a grid of RC holes on a 300-400m spacing across a 3.5km long area.

Figure 3 - Grimlock Prospect Collar Map with 1vd magnetics

The 38-hole AC program of 993m successfully defined further nickel and cobalt mineralisation at Grimlock. Best results from 2020 drilling are:

  • 20LMAC002

  • 6m @ 0.02% Co and 0.57% Ni from 10m

  • 12m @ 0.07% Co and 1.17% Ni from 20m, including 4m @ 0.11% Co and 1.56% Ni from 24m

  • 20LMAC003

  • 12m @ 0.13% Co and 0.64% Ni from 8m

  • 20LMAC006

  • 6m @ 0.13% Co and 0.68% Ni, including 2m @ 0.29% Co and 0.9% Ni from 20m

  • 20LMAC011

o 2m @ 0.1% Co and 0.2% Ni from 26m

A full listing of results is contained in Appendix 1. The pyrolusite associated with high-grade cobalt in previous drilling was not intersected in the 2020 drilling program reducing the scale potential.

The Swoop Target displays a similar cobalt-nickel-manganese enrichment in lag samples as Grimlock. 18 holes were completed at Swoop to test the extent of enriched laterite and for the presence of pyrolusite (Mn). The recent drilling comprised 18 holes for 342m across the 1km long magnetic high.

Best results included:

  • 20LMAC047 4m @ 0.15% Co and 0.67% Ni from 14m

  • 20LMAC051 10m @ 0.13% Co and 0.51% Ni

  • 20LMAC052 2m @ 0.02% Co and 0.52% Ni

  • 20LMAC058 2m @ 0.11% Co and 0.22% Ni

The mafic/ultramafic intrusion at Swoop and surface enrichment appears similar to Grimlock. There is potential for several other mafic/ultramafic intrusions identified at Lake Mackay to host further cobalt and nickel mineralisation.

The Cluster Target is a magnetic high that was drilled to confirm the source of the magnetic response. No base or precious metal mineralisation of interest was intersected in the hole.

The Grapple Prospect – Au and Cu associated with sulphides had been defined at Grapple over a strike length of approximately 800m. The current program aimed to define shallow mineralisation up plunge of previous drilling. The 4 holes completed were drilled along 300m of strike for a total of 235m drilled.

Results have returned with base metal intersections in 3 holes:

  • 20LMRC042 - 5m @ 0.2g/t Au, 46.1g/t Ag, 0.5% Cu, 0.9% Pb, 3.2% Zn and 0.2% Co

  • 20LMRC043 - 1m @ 3.2g/t Au, 11.4g/t Ag, 2.6% Cu, 0.59% Zn

  • 20LMRC044 - 2m @ 0.7g/t Au, 11g/t Ag, 0.34% Cu, 0.2% Pb, 0.6% Zn

  • No significant results were reported for 20LMRC045.

The mineralisation was intersected in the targeted position and limits the continuity of shallow mineralisation to the east. The mineralisation remains open down plunge to the west.

Future Work

  • Follow-up diamond drilling is planned for the Raw, Customisable, and Phreaker Prospects.

  • Infill soil sampling is planned in WA and the NT.

  • Any anomalies generated will likely be tested by RC drilling.

  • RC drilling will test the strike extent of the Arcee Prospect.

  • Additional RC drilling is planned for the Goldbug target.

Lake Mackay JV Background

The Lake Mackay Project is 400km northwest of Alice Springs and comprises approximately 15,630 km[2] of exploration licences and applications (14,886km[2] IGO 70%/Prodigy Gold 30% JV, 744km[2] IGO 59.5%/Prodigy Gold 25.5%/Castile JV 15%)(Figure 2). The Project has consolidated tenure over the favourable Proterozoic margin between the Aileron and Warumpi Provinces and is characterised by a continent-scale geophysical gravity ridge and the Central Australian Suture. The JV partners consider that exploration has the potential to unlock a new metallogenic province hosting multiple styles of precious and base metals mineralisation.

Appendix 3: JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1- Lake Mackay Drilling 2020

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques

Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. 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 (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.

Aircore (AC) / Reverse Circulation (RC)
drilling completed in October 2020.

Sampling

One metre RC/AC samples were
collected with a scoop.

Four metre composite samples
were collected from an orbital
splitter attached to the rig.

Individual metre samples were
sampled where geological logging
and/or portable HHXRF identified
mineralisation.

Samples were dried, pulverised to -
75µm and split to produce a
nominal 200 gram sub sample.

1 metre samples from Grimlock and
Swoop were analysed for gold,
platinum and palladium using a 25
gram lead collection fire assay with
analysis by Inductively Coupled
Plasma Optical Emission
Spectrometry (ICP-OES).

1 metre samples from Goldbug,
Grapple and Customisable were
analysed for gold using a 25 gram
lead collection fire assay with
analysis by Inductively Coupled
Plasma Optical Emission
Spectrometry (ICP-OES).

Multi-element analysis was
completed using a four-acid digest
on a 0.2g prepared sample with
analysis of 33 elements with ICP-
OES.
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.). _

An aircore/slimline RC drilling rig, owned
and operated by Bullion Drilling was used.

The RC drilling was conducted with a
127mm face sampling hammer bit.
Drill sample
recovery

Method of recording and assessing core and chip
sample recoveries and results assessed.

Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and
ensure representative nature of the samples.

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.

The sample recovery was estimated by the
relative size of the piles of drill spoil that
were placed on the ground.

Sample quality was recorded during
logging (wet\dry samples) and qualitative
recovery were assigned to the samples.
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.

Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature.
Core (or costean, channel, etc.) photography.

The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.

The RC chips were logged on 1 metre
intervals using the IGO coding system.
Lithology, weathering, colour, alteration,
veining and mineralisation are logged
(qualitative). Magnetic susceptibility was
measured for each 4 metre composite
sample (quantitative). A representative
chip sample was collected for each metre.
Sub-sampling
techniques and
sample preparation

If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half
or all core taken.

If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split,
etc. and whether sampled wet or dry.

For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.

Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-
sampling stages to maximise representivity of
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.

Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size
of the material being sampled.

For RC, one-metre drill samples were laid
out on to the ground in 30m rows, and
four-metre composite samples of
approximately 4kg were collected from an
orbital, into pre-numbered calico bags. The
majority of samples (>99%) were dry.

The same method was used for one-metre
samples as well.

Samples were prepared at the Intertek
Laboratory in Alice Springs. Samples were
dried, and the whole sample was crushed
and pulverised to 85% passing 75µm, and
a sub-sample of approx. 200g retained.

A duplicate field sample was taken at a
rate of 1 in 50.

to confirm that the sample results are
representative.

For exploration drilling the sample size is
considered appropriate to give an
indication of mineralisation given that the
sampleis crushed to-75µm.
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.

For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF
instruments, etc., the parameters used in determining
the analysis including instrument make and model,
reading times, calibrations factors applied and their
derivation, etc.

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.

For 4 metre composites and 1 metre
intervals were both analysed using 25g fire
assay for A, Pt and Pd and four-acid digest
for Ag base metals and pathfinders. The
fire assay is a total digest and the four-acid
is considered a “near total” digest.

No geophysical or XRF results are used in
exploration results reported.

Laboratory QAQC involves the use of
internal lab standards and blanks using
certified reference materials. Lab
duplicates are also monitored to ensure
the sample results are representative.

IGO also provides reference samples and
blanks that areinserted every 50 samples.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying

The verification of significant intersections by either
independent or alternative company personnel.

The use of twinned holes.

Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures,
data verification, data storage (physical and electronic)
protocols.

Discuss any adjustment to assay data.

Significant intersections were identified in
the field by an IGO geologist and were
selected for 1 metre sampling.

No twinned holes were completed.

Primary data was collected in Field
Marshall files. Data are imported directly to
the database with importers that have built
in validation rules. Assay data are
imported directly from digital assay files
and are merged in the database with
sample information. Data are uploaded to
a master SQL database stored in Perth,
which is backed up daily. Data is reviewed
and manually validated upon completion of
drilling.

From time to time assays will be repeated
if they fail the company QAQC protocols,
however no adjustments are made to
assay data once accepted into the
database.
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.

Specification of the grid system used.

Quality and adequacy of topographic control.

Hole collars were recorded using Garmin
handheld GPS and averaging for 90
seconds. Expected accuracy is + or – 3m
for easting and northing. The azimuth of
the drill collars were measured with a
compass using magnetic north and
recorded in the database. A clinometer
was used to check the dip of the hole at
the collar.

The grid system is MGA_GDA94 (zone 52)
Data spacing and
distribution

Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.

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.

Whether sample compositing has been applied.

This drilling is not used for resource
estimation, it was intended to attempt to
identify bedrock sources of multi-element
soil and rock chip geochemical anomalies
associated with gold mineralised systems
and to test a conductor that was identified
from a moving loop electromagnetic
survey.

RC samples were composited over 4
metres.
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.

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.

The drill lines were designed to be
perpendicular to the soil anomalies

The drilling at Grimlock and Swoop were
designed to be evenly spread over the
target intrusion as identified from
aeromagnetics and geological mapping..

No sampling bias is considered to have
been introduced.
Sample security
The measures taken to ensure sample security.

The RC drill samples were collected in
pre-numbered calico bags and then placed
in poly-weave bags. They were
transported from the field to the sample
preparation laboratory in Alice Springs by
PRX/IGO personnel.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary

Once the sample preparation is completed
in Alice Springs the samples are
transported to Perth for analysis using the
laboratories standard chain of custody
procedure.
Audits or reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data.

No specific audits or reviews have been
undertaken at this stage in the program.

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results

Criteria JORC Code explanation
Mineral tenement
and land tenure
status

Type, reference name/number, location and ownership
including agreements or material issues with third
parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding
royalties, native title interests, historical sites,
wilderness or national park and environmental
settings.

The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting
along with any known impediments to obtaining a
license to operate in the area.

The Lake Mackay Project currently
consists of multiple tenements with the
results reported from Grimlock EL24915 /
EL30731 (70% IGO 30% Prodigy Gold),
Grapple EL24915 (70% IGO 30% Prodigy
Gold), Swoop and Cluster EL30730 (70%
IGO 30% Prodigy Gold), Goldbug EL
31794 (IGO 59.5%/Prodigy Gold
25.5%/Castile JV 15%)

This tenement is in good standing and no
known impediments exist.

Prodigy Gold NL and IGO entered into a
multi-phase agreement covering the Lake
Mackay Project on 21 August 2013.

In October 2018 completed phase 2 of the
agreement to earn a 70% interest in the
project.
Exploration done by
other parties

Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other
parties.

EL24915 was previously explored by BHP
in the South Tanami JV. BHP flew a
Geotem survey in 1999 and conducted
ground EM and drilling in 2004 targeting Ni
sulphides.
Geology
Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.

The Grimlock is a residual Ni-Co prospect
developed from the weathering of
mafic/ultramafic phases of the Andrew
Young Igneous Complex.

The region is also considered by IGO and
PRX to have potential for the discovery of
deposits having a number of mineralisation
styles including: :
o
Iron-ore-copper-gold (IOCG)
deposits
o
Volcanogenic hosted massive
sulphide deposits (VMS)
o
Orogenic gold
Drill hole Information
A summary of all information material to the
understanding of the exploration results including a
tabulation of the following information for all Material
drill holes:
o
easting and northing of the drill hole collar
o
elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above
sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar
o
dip and azimuth of the hole
o
down hole length and interception depth
o
hole length.

If the exclusion of this information is justified on the
basis that the information is not Material and this
exclusion does not detract from the understanding of
the report, the Competent Person should clearly
_explain why this is the case. _

Included in Appendix 1 and 2
Data aggregation
methods

In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging
techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade
truncations (eg cutting of high 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.

The assumptions used for any reporting of metal
_equivalent values should be clearly stated. _

Cu-Au results with 0.5g/t Au or 0.4% Cu
or 0.4% Zn Cutoff and 1m internal dilution

Mineralised geological intercepts
containing samples >0.1% Co and 1m
internal dilution

Metal equivalent grades were not
reported.

Criteria JORC Code explanation
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 (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not known’). _

Downhole widths are provided as this is
the first drilling program at this prospect
and mineralisation geometry is poorly
understood at this stage.
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. _

A plan view is provided in Figure 3 and 4
and cross section in Figure 1
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.

Co results reported are based on cut-off of
0.1% Co

Cu-Au results are reported on 0.5g/t Au or
0.4% Cu or 0.4% Zn Cutoff and 1m
internal dilution
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. _

An interpreted outline of the possible
extent of the residual mineralisation is
displayed in Figure 1, 3, and 4.
Further work
The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g.
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. _

Future work is summarised in the
announcement.
