Drilling Completed at Gascoyne REE Projects

  • Drilling at Mick Well and Kingfisher has been completed. The program included 18 RC drill holes for 2330m across eight targets.

  • Seven of the drill holes were completed at the MW2 target, where the Company recently reported a rare earth elements (REE) discovery in drill hole MWRC004, with 12m at 1.12% total rare earth elements (TREO).

  • The orientation of the REE-bearing calcite-magnetite-apatite veins at MW2 have now been defined.

  • Potassium fenite, a key type of alteration which develops immediately around carbonatite intrusions and is also a host of the for REE-bearing veins, has been recorded in drill holes from the MW2, MW3 and MW4 targets.

  • The drill samples have been submitted to the laboratory in multiple batches, with the first results from MW2 expected in June, with the remaining batches to follow throughout July.

Kingfisher Mining Limited ( ASX:KFM ) (“ Kingfisher ” or the “ Company” ) is pleased to provide an update on the completion of drilling at its 100% owned projects in the Gascoyne Mineral Field in Western Australia.

Kingfisher’s Executive Director and CEO James Farrell commented: “We’re very pleased to have completed follow-up drilling at MW2, together with maiden drilling for REEs at several other targets, just four months after we announced the discovery of REEs at Mick Well. The samples are already in the laboratory, with the first batches of results expected in June.

Our team is back at Mick Well this week mapping and sampling; work which will be greatly assisted by the geological knowledge we have gained from the new drilling”.

Mick Well and Kingfisher Drilling Program

The current drilling program at the Mick Well and Kingfisher Prospects has been completed. The program included 18 reverse circulation (RC) drill holes for 2330m and tested eight targets along 20km of strike of the interpreted 54km target corridor (Figure 2). The majority of the drilling was completed at MW2 (Figure 3), where the Company recently made a REE discovery in drilling, which included 12m at 1.12% TREO, including 4m 1.84% TREO (see ASX:KFM 10 January 2022 and 24 March 2022).

Figure 3: New drill holes at the MW1, MW2, MW3, MW4 and MW6 targets and recently reported TREO results. Inset image shows the target structural positions highlighted by the Total Magnetic Intensity First Vertical Derivative.

The drilling at MW2 was designed to define the dip and strike of the calcite-magnetite-apatite veins and associated REE-bearing minerals, monazite and allanite, which were intersected in MWRC004. Geological logging of the drill holes indicates the target alteration and veins were intersected in drilling at MW2 and the previously reported mineralisation is now interpreted to have a WNW strike and dip moderately to the SSW (Figure 4 and Figure 5).

The drilling at the MW2, MW3 and MW4 targets intersected areas of potassic fenitisation as well as epidote alteration (Figure 1). The potassic fenitisation is an important component of the carbonatite intrusion-related mineral system, with potassium fenites occurring immediately around the carbonatite intrusions. The potassium fenites are also an important host of the REE-bearing veins. The carbonatite intrusion-related exploration and mineralisation model is shown in Figure 6.

Ground-Based Radiometrics Surveys

Five trial ground-based radiometrics surveys were completed at MW2, MW3, MW4 and two other targets close to the Mick Well carbonatite complex. The trial grids were typically 150m by 100m, with survey lines spaced at 20m in each grid (Figure 7).

The results from the ground-based surveys were compared with the results from the airborne magnetics and radiometrics survey that was flown by UTS Geophysics in 2012[^] . The ground-based surveys showed a good correlation with the airborne survey, but did not offer significantly better geological information.

2022 Gascoyne Exploration Program

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

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 8). 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[^] .
