Chuscal drilling contract executed, drillers on-site
Maiden Drilling Program to start ~ 1 week

- Maiden diamond drilling program ~2,400m will test several mineralised structures within the Chuscal Gold Target
Metminco Limited (ASX: MNC) (“ Metminco ” or “ the Company ” ) has commissioned Logan Drilling Colombia SAS for the maiden drilling program at the Company’s highly anticipated Chuscal Gold Target – Quinchia, Colombia ( Chuscal )[1] .
The drilling contractors have commenced scoping out access, logistics and water management strategies in anticipation of commencing the HQ/NQ diamond drilling program of up to 2,400m in one week.
Metminco’s Managing Director said: “We are glad that Logan Drilling were able to provide a competitive bid as they have previously provided drilling services to both Andes Resources and Metminco and demonstrated themselves to be professional, reliable and aligned to our policy of buy local, hire local and employ local”.

1 The Chuscal Gold Target is a JV with AngloGold Ashanti Colombia SA. Metminco can earn 51% through US$2.5M of exploration expenditure (see ASX Announcement 6[th] December 2018). Metminco is the manager of the JV.

Whilst the field mapping and ground magnetic programs currently underway may result in drill program changes, it is intended that the first drill hole ever to test the Chuscal target is designed to intercept the Guayacanes structure close to surface. The Guayacanes diorite consists of gold bearing veins within a mineralised diorite porphyry (refer ASX announcement 18[th] September 2019 for further detail)[2] .
The Company has previously announced the results of historical channel sampling from underground workings of the Guayacanes veins within the Guayacanes diorite at Chuscal (ASX release 21[st] January 2019)[2] . In summary, the underground sampling comprised 120, approximately two-meter long channel samples taken along the length of the underground working. These delivered gold grades of up to 250gpt with 10% of samples having grades over 10gpt (average grade 62.7gpt) . The higher gold grades are associated with two or three vein systems with elevated silver (up to 59gpt) and associated arsenic, antinomy, tungsten and tellurium. In the cross-cuts between these veins, continuous lower grade (1gpt to 3.9gpt) mineralisation is present[2,3] .
Figure one is a stylised cross section of the structures, vein styles and geology the first drill hole (CHDDH001) is expected to encounter which includes the above-mentioned Guyacanes veins at shallow depth and also the mineralised Tres Cuevas breccia at ~200m below surface. Tres Cuevas is an epithermal level, magmatic breccia mapped at surface.

Note: this is an interpretive section based on limited available surface data, used in planning the drill program. Vein density is unknown. The figure illustrates the relationship between different vein sets that may be intersected in the proposed drillhole.
2 The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the ASX market announcement.
3 The channel samples were collected by a third party in access, drive and cross-cut tunnels, approximately 70m below the surface. It is beneath the south-eastern end of the 600m by 240m Central Zone of high-grade rock-soil and rock chip samples which average 2.66gpt Au (uncut), within a large (900m by 530m) lower grade envelope which averages 1.76gpt Au (uncut). (ASX release 21st January 2019).

Figure 2: Simplified geological map of Chuscal showing the currently proposed drill targets. Hole CHDDH001 is located approximately central on the map, drilled to the north. Other drill collar locations and drilling sequence are not confirmed and may change as the program progresses.
Drilling is planned to be a two phase operation, with three holes planned initially, and then up to a further four holes to be drilled with the benefit of knowledge gained through analysis of the results from the first phase of drilling. Drilling is indicatively planned to target an average depth of 300-400 meters in each drill hole.
Further information will be provided as the drill targeting completes.

| Sampling | • Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random | Underground channel sampling |

•Continuous underground rock-chip channel samples were obtained along the length of artisanal workings, bagged and tagged with unique sample identity numbers, transported and submitted to SGS Colombia Ltda located in Medellin for sample preparation. |
| • Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. • 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 sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
•Continuous rock-chip sampling is an accepted exploration methodology to obtain a representative sample. However, it does not have the same precision as cut (saw) channel samples and should be regarded as being indicative of the magnitude and extent of mineralization. •Sample preparation included drying at <60°C, crushing, and pulverizing the sample to -75 micron (200 mesh) from which a representative pulp sample was obtained using a riffle splitter. The pulps were sealed, packaged and couriered to SGS Laboratory in Lima, Peru. •Gold assays were obtained using a lead collection fire assay technique (FAA313) with analyses for an additional 50 elements obtained using multi-acid (four acid) digest and ICP finish. (ICM40B) Over limit precious metals (+5,000ppb for Au & 10gpt for Ag) were re-assayed using FAG303 and AAS41B methodologies respectively. Over limit Cu (+10,000ppm) was re-analysed using AAS41B. |
