Broad Zones of Anomalous REEs Discovered in Mick Well Clays

New Style of REE Mineralisation Identified

  • Preliminary RC drilling has returned broad intervals of rare earth elements (REE) associated with a new style of mineralisation at the Mick Well project which includes kaolinite clays and weathered bedrock. Significant results include:

  • 48m at 1265 ppm TREO, including 40m at 1367 ppm TREO from 8m (MWRC020).

  • 16m at 1156 ppm TREO, including 12m at 1301 ppm TREO from 8m (MWRC021).

  • Acid leach sighter testwork is underway to assess the metallurgy of the newly identified style of mineralisation.

  • Anomalous REE mineralisation has also been intersected in the bedrock at all targets drilled in the Mick Well area including:

  • Mick Well: 68m at 631 ppm TREO from 36m (MWRC022).

  • MW1: 44m at 754 ppm TREO from 152m (MWRC006).

  • MW3: 4m at 1704 ppm TREO from 48m (MWRC017).

  • Anomalous REE mineralisation was also intersected at the Kingfisher Prospect which is located 15km east of Mick Well, with results that included 4m at 1924 ppm TREO from 172m (KFRC004).

  • All of the REE mineralisation intersected in drilling is associated with structures that lie within the 54km target corridor; confirming the exploration model that structurally controls the REE mineralisation.

  • Geological mapping and sampling is on-going ahead of the next drill program which is scheduled for later in the year and will include among other targets the drilling of the recently identified 800m of outcropping mineralisation that returned rock chips of 21.13% TREO and 14.29% TREO (see ASX:KFM announcement 20 June 2022).

Kingfisher Mining Limited ( ASX:KFM ) (“ Kingfisher ” or the “ Company” ) is pleased to provide the results from Mick Well and the Kingfisher Prospect drilling at its 100% owned projects in the Gascoyne Mineral Field in Western Australia.

Kingfisher’s Executive Director and CEO James Farrell commented: “This is another great result for the Company with all of the targets drilled in the recent drilling program returning anomalous REE mineralisation, and significantly, all of the targets lie on structures within the Company’s 54km target corridor. In addition to the recent hard rock discoveries, we have also identified anomalous REE in the clays at the Mick Well Prospect. This now presents a new opportunity that will be followed-up with metallurgy testwork and additional drilling.

We are continuing with our surface mapping and sampling programs to improve our understanding of the region, identifying additional drill targets ahead of the next drill program which is scheduled for later this year.”

Mick Well Drilling Results

Broad zones of REE mineralisation have been returned from reverse circulation (RC) drilling at the Mick Well Prospect (Figure 1 and Figure 2). The mineralisation is associated with kaolinite clays and weathered bedrock; a new style of mineralisation for the project. The most significant REE include:

  • MWRC020: 48m at 1265 ppm TREO with 257 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 4m, including 40m at 1367 ppm TREO with 278 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 8m.

  • MWRC021: 16m at 1156 ppm TREO with 228 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 8m, including 12m at 1301 ppm TREO with 259 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 8m.

The drilling also returned anomalous REE results from fresh bedrock from all three drill holes completed at Mick Well:

  • MWRC020: 12m at 808 ppm TREO with 163 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 116m.

  • MWRC021: 4m at 598 ppm TREO with 122 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 44m.

  • MWRC021: 4m at 1003 ppm TREO with 201 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 64m.

  • MWRC022: 68m at 631 ppm TREO with 132 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 36m (Figure 2).

The potential for REEs at the Mick Well prospect was first identified by the Company earlier this year, when anomalous and highly encouraging results were returned from sampling of historical diamond drill hole MWDD002 (see ASX:KFM announcements 11 April 2022). The new anomalous REE results from the clays and weathered bedrock are reported above 500 ppm TREO which has been selected based on geostatistical analysis of the assay results. Other anomalous REE results from Mick Well are included in Annexure 1.

Mick Well Area and Kingfisher Drilling Results

RC drilling at the Kingfisher Prospect and all targets drilled in the Mick Well area, including MW1, MW3, M4 and MW6 has also returned anomalous REE results. The targets all lie within the Company’s target 54km corridor which is associated with the Chalba Shear Zone; a crustal-scale fault zone and control of the carbonatite intrusions and associated REE mineralisation in the region. Drilling has now confirmed the presence of anomalous REE mineralisation at the Kingfisher Prospect in the east and from historical drill hole GAD-0003 at the western end of the Company’s tenure (see ASX:KFM 24 March 2022). Highlights from the new drilling results are listed below and the full results are included in Annexure 1.

Kingfisher:

  • KFRC004: 4m at 1924 ppm TREO with 391 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 172m.

  • KFRC005: 16m at 859 ppm TREO with 168 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 64m, including 4m at 1031 ppm TREO with 201 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 72m.

  • KFRC005: 8m at 659 ppm TREO with 132 ppm Nd2O3 + Pr6O11 from 108m (Figure 3).

==> picture [596 x 109] intentionally omitted <==

The Company is targeting REE mineralisation along a 54km corridor associated with the Chalba Shear Zone (Figure 5). The Chalba Shear is a broad WNW-trending crustal-scale structure that has played an important role in providing a conduit for the intrusion of the carbonatites, as well as the associated alteration and late-stage mineralised veins and carbonatite dykes. Fenites (carbonatite-associated alteration) and potassium fenites, are well-developed in the Mick Well area and are an important host of the REE mineralisation. The carbonatite intrusion-related REE exploration model is shown in Figure 6.

2022 Gascoyne Exploration Program

Kingfisher is carrying out extensive and targeted exploration programs for its Gascoyne projects during 2022. The planned exploration is cost-effective and aims to develop and test drill targets from groundbased mapping and rock sampling. The Company also plans to simultaneously develop a pipeline of exploration opportunities through integrating current and planned tenement-scale airborne geophysical surveys with geological knowledge from the Company’s breakthrough REE discovery at Mick Well.

Planned and completed activities for 2022 for Kingfisher’s Gascoyne projects are shown below. The contract for the airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys for Mick Well, Kingfisher and Arthur River have been awarded and the surveys have been scheduled to commence in September 2022. Fieldwork is ongoing as the Company prepares additional drill targets in the Mick Well area ahead of the third RC drilling program for the area scheduled for later in the year.

About the Kingfisher and Mick Well Projects

The Kingfisher and Mick Well Projects are located approximately 230km east of Carnarvon, in the Gascoyne region of Western Australia. The Company holds exploration licences covering 969km[2] and has recently increased its interests in the Gascoyne Mineral Field by nearly 40% through the targeted pegging of additional tenure interpreted to be prospective for rare earth elements (Figure 7). The tenure includes rocks of the Proterozoic Durlacher Suite that hosts the world-class Yangibana Deposit which includes 27.42Mt @ 0.97% TREO[# ] as well as the Archaean Halfway Gneiss.

The recently discovered REE mineralisation at Mick Well is associated with carbonatite intrusions discovered by Kingfisher. Historic exploration in the area had focused on outcrops of quartz reef and gossanous ironstones which are up to 10m in width. Past exploration returned rock chip sample results of up to 10.6% Cu over a strike length of 1km within a laterally extensive geological horizon. Four historical drill holes were completed in the Mick Well area, with the best result being 11m @ 0.25% Cu from 118 m (MWDD001)[^] .

Historical exploration also identified copper at the Kingfisher Project, with mineralisation exposed in a series of shallow historical mining pits over a strike length of 2km. Previous exploration at the project has included geophysical surveys, surface geochemical sampling and limited reverse circulation drilling, with drilling intercepts including 3m @ 0.6% Cu (KFRC10) and rock chip results of 15.3% Cu, 6.3% Cu, 6.2% Cu, 5.9% Cu and 3.4% Cu[^] .
