Exploration Targets

  • Geophysics has proved successful at identifying the covered hematite schist,

  • Reconnaissance drilling of the gravity anomalies has confirmed the presence of broad, continuous zones of iron mineralisation,

  • MARDH002 - 237m at 28% Fe from surface,

  • MARDH004 – 180m at 30% Fe from surface.

  • Drilling priorities are the West and NE gravity prospects,

  • Regional potential extends to the northwest of the NE gravity prospect.

Quality Fines Product

==> picture [227 x 65] intentionally omitted <==

  • Preliminary metallurgical test program underway on hematite schists,

  • Early results indicate a quality fines product at a coarse grind size,

Fe% SiO2 % Al2O3 % P %
Head Grade 28.1 44.7 5.25 0.23
Concentrate
Grade
66.8 1.90 0.55 0.13

Notes:

�Bulk sample prepared by combining continuous, 50m mineralised intervals from diamond drill holes MPD002 (interval 150 to 200m), MPD003 (interval 50 to 150m) & MPD004 (interval 100 to 150m).

�Test work conducted at a feed grind size of 80% passing 125µm on a laboratory scale Wilfley table.

�Mass yield was 30% with a Fe recovery of 70%.

  • Hematite schist is relatively soft,

  • Compared to magnetite, significantly less power required to produce a concentrate,

  • Simple flow sheet comprising crushing, coarse grinding and gravity separation anticipated.
