Lightning Prospect Drilling Increases Gold Strike-Extent at Castlemaine
Highlights
-
Kalamazoo has completed its diamond drilling program at the Lightning Prospect, located within its 100% controlled Castlemaine Gold Project, in the Bendigo Zone, Victoria
-
This program, which comprised six diamond drill holes (1,818.6m) was completed in December 2020 and has highlighted the potential of the Lightning Prospect and surrounding area
-
Anomalous to high grade gold and associated alteration was intersected in all six holes with drill results including:
-
0.8m at 11.1 g/t Au and 0.4m at 12.3 g/t Au (LT20DD02W)
-
0.55m at 10.6 g/t Au (LT20DD02)
-
The Lightning Prospect is located 2km south on the same strike-extent as the Mustang Prospect, where Kalamazoo announced in March 2020 high grade results including 1.42m @ 261.3 g/t Au (MU19DD04)
-
The Lightning and Mustang high grade mineralisation is structurally complex with similar attributes to the nearby Wattle Gully Mine and Fosterville style shallow-dipping fault structures, that cross-cut anticline-syncline folds
-
Coarse gold-in-quartz specimens recently discovered by metal detecting between the Lightning and Mustang Prospects further supports the gold bearing potential of the area
-
The results from the Lightning and Mustang drilling are highly prospective and will see Kalamazoo undertake extensive review and testing
-
The next Victorian drill program scheduled by Kalamazoo is at its high priority epizonal goldantimony prospects at the South Muckleford Project with a commencement date planned for late Quarter 1 2021

Exploration Drilling Update
Kalamazoo Resources Limited (ASX: KZR) (“Kalamazoo” or “the Company”) is pleased to advise that following the completion of its diamond drilling program at the Lightning Prospect, all assay results have now been received and interpreted. The Lightning Prospect is located within the private Pine Plantation in EL006679 of the Castlemaine Gold Project (Figure 1). The Lightning Prospect is situated 2km south along the same strike-extent as Kalamazoo’s Mustang Prospect, where the Company completed its maiden diamond drilling program in April 2020[1] .
The Lightning Prospect was identified in 2019 as one of Kalamazoo’s top ten prospects located within the Castlemaine Gold Project. This assessment is based on past gold production and records, historic drilling and the results from groundwork, geophysical and geochemical surveys and 3D structural modelling recently carried out by Kalamazoo.
The Lightning program involved six diamond drill holes totalling 1,818.6m to test 440m strike-extent of prospective structures interpreted to be an analogue of the nearby Wattle Gully Mine, approximately 5km to the south (Table 1). Located within Kalamazoo’s EL006679, the Wattle Gully Mine operated between 1934 and 1969 and produced 1.1Mt for 411,000oz of gold at 11.1g/t Au[2] .
The six diamond drill holes were drilled from three sites and included three short “wedge” holes to obtain additional information over a particular zone of interest (Figure 2). The drilling results from all six holes confirmed the targeted “Wattle Gully Mine” analogue structure consisting of a west-dipping fault zone up to 10m in thickness with abundant quartz veining, alteration and minor visible gold (Figures 4 and 5). The best gold assays recorded were 0.8m at 11.1 g/t Au from 143m and 0.4m at 12.3 g/t Au from 139m (LT20DD02W) and 0.55m at 10.6 g/t Au from 143m (LT20DD02) (Table 2).
Near to the drilling at the Lightning Prospect and along trend from the Mustang Prospect, a prospector has recently recovered, by metal detecting, three coarse gold-in-quartz specimens. These specimens, up to 1.5cm long, were located over a relatively small area (Figure 5). Kalamazoo has made a site inspection of the area where the gold specimens were discovered to confirm the location is within the Lightning/Mustang strike extent.
To date, Kalamazoo has defined a trend of high-grade gold mineralised structures that includes the Mustang Prospect, the coarse gold-in-quartz specimens location and the Lightning Prospect, for a total strike extent of approximately 2.5km (Figure 6). This trend is coincident with the presence of numerous historical mine workings and shafts which further supports the prospectivity of this mineralised extent. Accurate historical production records for the area are limited, however mining recoveries in the Lightning Prospect (Nimrod) vicinity were reported to be ~1 oz/t (i.e. ~ 31 g/t) of gold for 23 years (as at 1882)[3] .
The high-grade potential of this area is further demonstrated by the high-grade drill intersections recorded to date. For example, Kalamazoo’s recent drill results from the Mustang Prospect included 0.8m @19.4 g/t Au from 319m (MU19DD002), 1.42m @ 261.3 g/t Au from 100m (MU19DD04) including 0.17m @ 1,620 g/t Au[4] as well as 0.8m @ 11.1 g/t Au from 143m (LT20DD02W) at the Lightning Prospect.

Kalamazoo considers that although the mineralisation is structurally complex, the Mustang-Lightning mineralised trend remains highly prospective and warrants further investigation to determine if a highgrade Wattle Gully/Fosterville style deposit can be identified in the area.
Whilst this investigation continues, Kalamazoo’s operational focus will progress to drilling its high priority broad epizonal gold-antimony mineralised system recently discovered at the South Muckleford Gold Project[5] .

Competent Persons Statement
The information for the Victorian Projects is based on information compiled by Dr Luke Mortimer, a competent person who is a Member of The Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Dr Mortimer is an employee engaged as the Exploration Manager Eastern Australia for the Company and has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’. Dr Mortimer consents to the inclusion in this document of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.
Forward Looking Statements
Statements regarding Kalamazoo’s plans with respect to its mineral properties and programs are forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that Kalamazoo’s plans for development of its mineral properties will proceed as currently expected. There can also be no assurance that Kalamazoo will be able to confirm the presence of additional mineral resources/reserves, that any mineralisation will prove to be economic or that a mine will successfully be developed on any of Kalamazoo’s mineral properties. The performance of Kalamazoo may be influenced by a number of factors which are outside the control of the Company and its Directors, staff, and contractors.
Response to COVID-19
Kalamazoo has been proactively managing the potential impact of COVID-19 and has developed systems and policies to ensure the health and safety of its employees and contractors, and of limiting risk to its operations. These systems and policies have been developed in line with the formal guidance of State and Federal health authorities and with the assistance of its contractors and will be updated should the formal guidance change. Kalamazoo’s first and foremost priority is the health and wellbeing of its employees and contractors.
To ensure the health and wellbeing of its employees and contractors, Kalamazoo has implemented a range of measures to minimise the risk of infection and rate of transmission to COVID-19 whilst continuing to operate. All operations and activities have been minimised only to what is deemed essential. Implemented measures include employees and contractors completing COVID-19 risk monitoring, increased hygiene practices, the banning of non-essential travel for the foreseeable future, establishing strong infection control systems and protocols across the business and facilitating remote working arrangements, where practicable and requested. Kalamazoo will continue to monitor the formal requirements and guidance of State and Federal health authorities and act
