Ionic Soil Program defines drill Target at Macraes South
Cyclone Metals Limited (ASX: CLE ) ( Cyclone or the Company ) is pleased to announce that soil geochemical sampling has successfully identified a series of gold anomalies within the Macraes South PP 60700, located 40km north of Dunedin in the Otago Province of New Zealand ( Figure 1). Cyclone applied the Ionic Leach[TM] technique following the success of an orientation sampling program announced to the ASX on 2 May 2022.
Highlights
-
Strong coherent and continuous geochemical responses over projected structural positions of gold lode zones at Macraes South
-
Anomalous responses up to 350m wide in orientation sampling line 4 resolved into 3 parallel lode systems
-
Potentially >5 mineralised lodes for drill testing identified at the Swampy Hill Prospect within the Macraes South project
-
Rock chip sampling of lodes up to 3.47g/t Au
-
Identified lode dipping 50[o] to northeast subparallel to Hyde-Macraes shear system
-
Anomalism open to Northwest, Southeast and northeast
Commenting on the results of exploration in New Zealand, Cyclone Metals Chairman Tony Sage said:
“The results from the soil sampling program have generated highly prospective drill targets over multiple lodes, located only 15km from the Macraes Gold Mine, operated by Oceania Gold Limited. The Swampy Hill Prospect area with limited previous exploration, is being applied for to convert to an Exploration Permit and has significant upside if drill testing later in the year is successful. The remainder of the Macraes South project is being applied for to remain as a Prospecting Permit, and will have further soil sampling programs to identify drill targets.”
Geochemical Sampling Discussion
Following on from the Ionic leach trial soil sampling (ASX release 2 May 2022 and 1 June 2022) within Macraes South, an expanded program was designed and completed in December 2022. The slow return of results was in part due to slow shipping during the Christmas period and lab backlogs.
A soil grid program was planned and executed around the significant results returned from orientation traverse line 4, at the Swampy Hill prospect, within the Macraes South tenement. The planned program was for approximately 500 samples to be collected on a 200m north-south line spacing with a 50m samples spacing. The original orientation line was orientated north-northeast so the grid lines crossed the orientation line 3 times providing a detailed cross-check on both sets of results.
Naturally, the prospect is now called Swampy Hill.
The anomalies are defined both on raw geochemical values or on a times background basis usually ASX: CLE used to express Ionic Leach[Tm] results. The anomalies tend to be narrow and lenticular in nature consistent with the probable style of mineralisation being in relatively narrow elongate shear zones.

Anomalous zones ( Figure 2 ) defined using Ionic Leach[TM] which show >25x background values have empirically been found in proximity to mineralisation; using this rationale there is potentially >2,000m of mineralised strike in the Swampy Hill prospect area. Table 1 lists the sample locations, the raw Au ppb values and the calculated ratio to background value (Response Ratio – RR).
The Figure 3 photograph shows the nature of the mineralised zone in a small gouging; this zone assayed 3.47g/t over 0.6m and consists of weathered sulphidic siliceous shear zone material dipping at 45[o] northeast and striking northwest-southeast (140[o] -320[o] ). This is very similar to the Lot’s Wife area also in the footwall of the Hyde-Macraes Shear and are probably best described as moderate angle reverse faults rather than thrust faults such as in the Macraes low angle system.
Their origin and character are assumed to be due to the same thrust regime which generated the HydeMacraes Shear with the change in dip angle being due to rotation of the fault planes occurring in the footwall zone.
The southernmost anomaly adjacent to the Swampy Hill Trig station strikes 110[o] -290[o] , the same as the subvertical quartz hosted Nenthorn gold mineralisation.
An application for an extension of term has been lodged for the Macraes South PP 60700; it is proposed a small EP area covering Swampy Hill and surrounding area be lodged; once granted and an access agreement signed with the landowners a drilling program will be undertaken to test the defined anomalies.

The following Tables are provided to ensure compliance with the JORC Code (2012 Edition) requirements for the reporting of Exploration Results at the Macraes South Gold Project .
Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section applies to all succeeding sections)
| 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. |
Ionic LeachTMsoil programs were sampled by hand with steel shovel and plastic scoops. A total of 182 samples were collected. The depth of the samples taken varied between 20 to 30cm. Samples were sieved through -4mm mesh. Sample weights were approximately 300g (+/- 50g). 7 lines of samples on a nominal 50 metre spacing were taken over prospective geological structures. Samples were sent to ALS Global for the Ionic LeachTM. |
| Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. |
Standard reference material, sample duplicates were used as per industry standard. |
|
| 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 samplingproblems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
No drilling is being reported. Ionic LeachTMsoil programs were sampled by hand with steel shovel and plastic scoops. The depth of the samples taken varied between 20 to 30cm. Samples were sieved through -4mm mesh. Sample weights were approximately 300g (+/- 50g). |
|
| 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 of standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is orientated and if so, by what method, etc). |

Section 2: Reporting of Exploration Results
(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section)
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| Mineral tenement and land tenure status |
Type, reference name/number, location and ownershipincluding 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. |
Nimitz Resources Limited is the 100% owner of the Macraes South Prospecting Permit PP 60700. There are no royalties or third-party agreements. |
| The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area. |
No perceived risk with tenure or with applications not being granted, under the NZP&M system. Under the NZ system the application process is competitive and the best application is awarded the application with the right to move to grant. |
|
| Exploration done by other parties |
Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. |
No exploration has been undertaken over the project area, other than regional mapping and structural interpretation. |
| Geology | Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. |
Mineralisation in the area has formed predominantly low- angle (dip < 20°), grey-white quartz veins with associated silicified and brecciated schist (± arsenopyrite ± gold), of between 4- to 30 cm thickness (Teagle et. al., 1990). They are commonly subparallel to the bounding fractures and concordant with the foliation of the host schist. Veins are lensoidal in both length and breadth and no one lens appears to be continuous for more than 10 to 15 m either along strike or down-dip. In cross section these veins appear to be sinuous, thickened on the shallowly dipping parts of faults and at bends, with decreased thicknesses of mineralisation in the steeper segments. The schist surrounding quartz veins is commonly silicified (Teagle et. al., 1990). General understanding is that the mineralisation is Carlin style. |
| 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: • easting and northing of the drill hole collar • elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar • dip and azimuth of the hole • _down hole length and interception depth _ |
No drilling being reported. |

| 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. |
No drilling being reported. | |
| 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. |
No data aggregation is being used. |
| 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. |
No aggregation of mineralised intercepts is being reported. | |
| The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
No metal equivalents are being used or 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. 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’). |
Mineralisation widths not being 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. |
Appropriate diagrams and Figures are contained in the body of the news release. |
| 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. |
All results have been reported and is considered to be balanced. |
| 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. |
No substantive exploration has been undertaken. |
| 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. |
Cyclone plans to undertake further Ionic LeachTMsoil sampling to expand prospective area, then focus on high- resolution magnetics and structural modelling. The previous work by explorers, is available in NZP&M reports and data, and although difficult to JORC, it gives Nimitz the indicators of where to focus exploration efforts in the short term. Cyclone will also consider a Sub Audio Magnetics survey. |
