Ravenswood North ASX ANNOUNCEMENT ASX | KLI
13 July 2023
Drilling intersects geochemically anomalous intrusive breccias at Rocky Prospect
(100% owned Ravenswood North, QLD)
-
Diamond drilling identifies intrusive iron-oxide breccia and quartz-carbonate breccia-pipes aligning with VTEM geophysical anomaly.
-
Intrusive breccias are associated with anomalous levels of Ag-As-Bi-Sb-Te-W in assays, consistent with other Intrusive Related Gold Systems (IRGS) in Queensland.
-
Drilling also defines zones of sheeted quartz and sulphide veins, hosted within the Spondulix granodiorite, consistent with IRGS in the district.
-
The drilling program has identified further targets for follow-up exploration.
-
The Company completed and received assays for an additional six RC drillholes with two diamond tails for a total 1,537m at Rocky Prospect.
Killi Resources Limited (‘Killi’ or the ‘Company’) (ASX: KLI) is pleased to announce the recent RC and diamond drilling program at its Rocky Prospect at its Queensland-based Ravenswood North project has intersected favourable lithologies for gold mineralisation, with the prospective lithologies spatially associated with the identified geophysical targets.
Killi Chief Executive Officer Kathryn Cutler said “The geology and geochemistry encountered in the drilling indicate that the intrusive target, generated from processing of the VTEM geophysical results, does represent a strongly altered and structurally complex zone that is prospective for intrusion-related mineralisation.
“Assays indicate the geochemistry remains favourable for an IRG System, and the degree of alteration of the rocks indicate we are potentially close to high-grade gold and silver mineralisation” Cutler said. “These are just the first 11 holes ever drilled into a new target, adding further evidence to the existing gold intercepts including 10m @ 0.66g/t Au from 174m & 6m @ 0.83g/t Au from 105m. The geological picture is becoming clearer with every hole we drill. The next drill program is currently being designed with the plan to return to Rocky in the short term.”
Drilling identifies intrusive breccias at Rocky
Killi’s drilling initially focused on the surface geochemical anomaly with multiple zones of >200ppb Au identified in soils, and rock chip samples up to 17g/t Au and 224g/t Ag. Initial results downhole returned significant gold mineralisation associated with quartz veins within a granodiorite covering an area of ~1,000m x 1,500m.
This second program completed a further 6 RC drillholes with two diamond tails for a total of 1,537m, designed to test geophysical targets identified from the VTEM survey completed in September 2022, interpreted as siliceous intrusive units which are potential hosts for gold mineralisation.
Drilling of the geophysical target intersected multiple zones of highly altered, siliceous intrusive rocks downhole, confirming a zone of structural complexity.

Drill hole RVCD0006, designed to target the VTEM magnetic high/low contact, intersected a quartzcarbonate breccia within a tonalite from 337.7m – 339.1m, with associated gold & silver anomalism. An additional 7.2m zone of interest was intersected from 354.8m – 362.0m, containing an iron-oxide breccia with intense chlorite-quartz-sericite-epidote alteration. Low-level gold was returned with a distinct increase in Ag-As-Bi-Sb-Te-W concentrations up to 80ppb Au, 0.32ppm Ag, 94ppm As, 1.2ppm Bi, 15.33ppm Sb, 0.84ppm Te, and 2.2ppm W similar to gold-silver deposits across the region (Figure 1).
Drillhole RVRC0007, designed to intercept the near surface section of the VTEM anomaly returned a thick zone of silver mineralisation, 75m @ 0.25g/t Ag fr 65m depth. Within this zone 1m returned 0.27g/t Au, 2.12g/t Ag and 1,000ppm As from 137-138m associated with the contact of granodiorite with an igneous intrusive.
A further 780m south-east of RVRC0007, RC drillhole RVRC0009 returned assays of 35m @ 0.32g/t Ag from 42m (Figure 2). The size of the systems is now 1km x 1.5km in size, confirmed in downhole drill assays.
These thick zones of silver anomalism may indicate proximity to gold mineralisation, with silver and arsenic common geochemical vectors in IRG systems.

Figure 1. Rocky long-section of existing drill holes, geophysical anomaly, interpreted geology, with gold and silver drill results (+/-350m section).
The intrusive unit intersected in RVCD0006 follows a regional shear and aligns with the flexures of the VTEM geophysical model (Figure 3). These units align with the regional geology of the district, and surface gold mineralisation from soil and rock chip samples.
The 11 drillholes completed, cover the geochemical and geophysical anomalies on a roughly 300m x 300m grid spacing. Deposits in the region, such as Mt Wright, have a footprint of ~200 x 60m, which indicates additional work will be needed to follow-up the drilling results and focus on the source of gold mineralisation found in surface rock chip samples, 16.19g/t Au and 17.43g/t Au.

Thin sections were completed on the main lithologies to confirm mineralogy and alteration patterns, (Figure 4). The thin sections confirm intense quartz-carbonate alteration of a breccia in RVPET004, coinciding with the geophysical anomaly. Abundant fine-grained disseminated pyrite and arsenopyrite is present within the groundmass of the breccia in RVCD0006.

Future Work
The Company is currently planning a follow-up drill program to focus around the breccia zones identified from this program and around the shallow gold mineralisation intersected in the first 5 RC holes, Table 2.
The Company plans to return to the field and complete an additional drill campaign at Rocky in the coming months. The program will focus on the ~1km zone between holes RVCD0005 to the old workings, where the current spacing of existing drillholes is ~300m apart. The Rocky prospect remains a 1km[2] system, with further drilling needed to fully test the prospect down to a more suitable scale of ~200 x 100m.
Next Steps
As the next phase of drilling is planned for Ravenswood North, the first exploration program will commence at the Mt Rawdon West Project in coming weeks.
The Project was granted in 2022 and is highly prospective for a new gold-copper mineral system. The Company will commence a reconnaissance and geochemical program soon. The Company plans to complete the first drill campaign and first holes ever into the copper-gold targets on the project in Quarter 4 of 2023.
