Highlights

A 3120-sample point auger geochemical program has been completed over a large contiguous tenement package straddling the regional Mt Monger Fault at Eastern Lefroy.

  • The program evaluated 17 kilometres of strike extending between the Hang Glider Hill prospect and Lucky Strike gold deposit

  • The objective was to generate drill targets from gold anomalies that may represent the surface expression of bedrock gold systems along this trend

  • Five new strong surface gold anomalies identified near to the Hang Glider Hill prospect

  • Three key gold anomalies with a North-South trend with results >50ppb Au are located 2.5km to the south of Hang Glider Hill. These highlight the potential for a new mineralised structural setting and are high priority targets for drill testing

  • A further two gold anomalies are located 2-3km south east along strike of Hang Glider Hill and adjacent to the Hang Glider Hill fault which provide further support to this developing trend

  • The new surface gold anomalies generated from early stage exploration enhance the prospectivity of the Hang Glider Hill exploration hub and add five drill ready targets to the portfolio

  • Exploration activity will involve aircore drilling and is now being prioritised and scheduled

Managing Director, Wade Johnson, commented

“These surface sample results are highly encouraging and continue to validate and reinforce the prospectivity of the Hang Glider Hill Exploration

hub. The northerly trending anomalies add a new geological flavour that supports an alternate structural model to enhance the bedrock gold potential of the greater area. Our priority will be to investigate the more prominent gold anomalies by aircore drilling with the aim of defining new bedrock targets for RC drilling”

ASX Announcement, 5 October 2020

ASX Announcement 5 October 2020

Lefroy Exploration Limited (ASX: LEX) (“Lefroy” or “the Company”) is pleased to report on the results from a 3120-hole auger drilling program completed at Eastern Lefroy. The program covered a contiguous package of tenements covering a strike length of 17km from Hang Glider Hill (HGH) gold prospect (refer LEX ASX release 29 November 2019) to the Lucky Strike gold deposit (LEX ASX release 20 May 2020). The area is within the 100% owned non-JV Eastern Lefroy tenement package (Figure 1), part of the greater Lefroy Gold Project (LGP) which is located 50km to the south east of Kalgoorlie

HGH is located in the north west region of the Company’s Lefroy Gold Project (“LGP” or “Project”) and was recognised in 2018 after the discovery of multiple gold nuggets over a 2km trend (Figure 1). It is part of the Eastern Lefroy package of tenements which covers 249km[2] . Tenements are wholly owned by LEX and are not subject to any farm-in agreements

The recent auger geochemical program was designed as a first pass exploration technique to screen a contiguous group of tenements covering 71 square kilometres that straddle the interpreted position of the regional scale Mt Monger fault (Figures 1 & 2). The Company considers areas around the Mt Monger Fault to be prospective for large gold deposits and hence these areas are a major focus for exploration by the Company.

Drill Program

In July 2020 the Company commenced (LEX ASX release 3 August 2020) an early stage auger drilling program as an initial exploration search tool to assess a large area (71km[2] ) adjacent to the interpreted position of the Mt Monger fault (Figures 1 & 2). The program complemented and extended the auger drilling programs completed by the Company during 2018 and 2019 at Hang Glider Hill and HavelockLucky Strike and provide a base surface geochemical coverage over approximately 25km of strike along the Mt Monger Fault (Figure 2). A total of 3120 samples were collected.

The auger drill sampling technique takes a single point sample of a carbonate rich horizon from up to 2m from surface and is effectively a surficial sample. The technique is an effective first pass exploration tool to screen large areas for the surface expression of a shallow bedrock gold system. The majority of the sample points were collected on 50m centres on north east trending lines space 400m apart (Figure 2). A small area of the program was completed on a closer spaced (200m) east west line spacing consistent with an earlier discrete soil sampling program completed by Western Mining Corporation (WMC) in the early 1990’s.

The auger drilling program was completed in early September 2020 and results from all but 300 samples have been received (Table 1). The results from the remaining 300 samples are expected in 2 weeks. The Company pleased to announce the results from the program have been very successful in generating new gold exploration targets for drill testing. The general background of gold anomalism is +10ppb Au over most of the trend. The initial focus is the higher value (+50ppb Au) anomalies. Five new surface gold anomalies (Figure 3) within the Hang Glider Hill exploration hub have been identified.

ASX Announcement, 5 October 2020

ASX Announcement 5 October 2020

Three robust parallel north-south trending gold anomalies (termed C, D &E) that each extend over more than 400-600m in strike length have been outlined south of the Hang Glider Hill prospect (Figure 3). The anomalies are each constrained by results at each auger sample point that exceed 50ppb Au. A peak value of 581ppb Au (0.58g/t Au) comes from anomaly D and is the highest gold result recorded from the program (Table 1).

The Company considers the anomalies C, D and E to be an exciting new development in the Hang Glider Hill area. The northerly trend of the anomalies is oblique to the westerly trend of the mafic and ultramafic stratigraphy. This may represent the surface expression to multiple northerly trending gold mineralised bedrock structures. Prior drilling (RC and diamond) in the area by WMC in the 1990’s targeted the ultramafic stratigraphy for Ni mineralisation but the diamond and RC holes were not analysed for gold. The holes were orientated to the north parallel with the surface gold trends.

A further two anomalies (A&B Figure 3) striking roughly north-west are located approximately 2.5km along strike to the south-east of the Hang Glider Hill prospect where diamond drilling by Lefroy in late 2019 intercepted 6.8m @ 1.86g/t Au from 53.7m. The Hang glider Hill prospect is recognised by a similarly discrete +50ppbAu surface gold anomaly.

Anomaly B has strike length of 600m and varies in width from 150m to 300m. The tenor of gold at anomaly B is considered high with several samples exceeding 75ppb gold in the core of the anomaly. The two new gold anomalies are located proximal to the interpreted position of the Mt Monger and Hang Glider Hill Faults and further strengthen the gold prospectivity along this developing corridor.

Next Steps

The Company considers these new surface gold anomalies to be highly encouraging and as such represent new high priority targets for drill testing in its Eastern Lefroy Project portfolio. The next stage of exploration is being planned which includes:

  • A Program of Works (POW) which has been submitted to the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS) for an early stage aircore drilling at each of these target areas.

  • • Planning of an early stage reconnaissance wide spaced air core drilling program to prioritise targets for RC drill testing is underway. Drilling is expected to commence in November 2020.

Background-Hang Glider Hill

HGH has been the focus of reconnaissance stage exploration since early 2018 following the discovery of numerous gold nuggets (LEX:ASX 26 June 2018) and preliminary definition of a northwesterly trend extending 2.3km from the original HGH nugget find. The Company considers the gold nuggets to be a surface geochemical anomaly.

In September 2018 the Company completed an early stage auger drilling program as an initial exploration search tool along the trend. A total of 266 samples were collected at 50m centres along 200m spaced east west lines that effectively cover approximately 2000m of strike.

The results of the sampling (ASX: LEX 6 November 2018) defined northern and southern zones of gold anomalism (plus 20ppb Au) around the interpreted position of the Mt Monger Fault. The zones are coincident with the locations of the discovered gold nuggets. The northern anomaly consists of three subparallel trends with a strike of up to 880m. The southern anomaly is centered about Hang Glider hill (a linear topographical feature) and is a coherent anomaly over a 680m strike length.

In November 2018 three angled diamond drill holes were completed (refer LEX ASX release 29 November 2019). Each of the holes intersected a similar geological sequence comprising a shallow oxide zone, and a strongly deformed or sheared zone. These are in contact with a lower, relatively undeformed sequence of biotite altered intermediate volcanic and sedimentary rocks, that includes black shale.

The results from this early stage diamond drilling confirmed gold mineralisation within the sheared and quartz veined rock package in the first hole 19HGDD001. Significant results returned from 19HGDD001 include 6.8m @ 1.86g/t Au from 53.7m and 7.68m @ 0.66g/t Au from 44m (includes VG). The results from the three diamond drill holes have for the first time provided important geological and structural information at Hang Glider Hill has aided refining the geological model at this new gold occurrence.

This announcement has been authorised for release by the Board

ASX Announcement, 5 October 2020

JORC CODE, 2012 Edition-Table 1 Lefroy Gold Project: Regional Auger Soil Sampling Program – 5 Oct 20 SECTION 1: SAMPLING TECHNIQUES AND DATA

SECTION1: SAMPLING TECHNIQUES AND DATA
Criteria JORC Code Explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques
• Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels,
random chips, or specific specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under
investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or
handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should
not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
• 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.

Auger sampling
Auger samples were collected using a
purpose built 6-wheel drive auger rig
contracted from Gyro Australia Drill and
Survey. The vertical drilling was to depths
ranging from 0.5m to 1.5m to collect one
representative sample from each hole. The
technique and medium collected is
considered a surface geochemical sample

Experienced field personnel supplied by the
auger company are always present when
sampling to ensure the appropriate
carbonate rich horizon is collected from
each hole

Auger drilling was complete to obtain one
sample from each shallow hole from which
200grams was pulverised to produce a 40g
charge for fire assay with an ICPMS finish
Drilling techniques • Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole
hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and
details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth
of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type,
whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc).

Auger drilling with 3.5inch drill bit with
depths ranging from 0.5 to 1.5m
Drill sample
recovery
• Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample
recoveries and results assessed.
• Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure
representative nature of the samples.
• Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery
and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred
due topreferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.


Recoveries were not assessed as they are
not material to the sample collected

Not applicable

Not applicable. On receival at the
laboratory all sample weights are measured
and reported to the Company
Logging • Whether core and chip samples have been geologically
and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support
appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining
studies and metallurgical studies.
• Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature.
Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography.
• The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.


Basic surface geology was logged at each
site

Sample colour and reaction to hydrochloric
acid was recorded and entered to an excel
spreadsheet.

Only the specific sampled horizon was
logged
Sub-sampling
techniques and
sample
preparation
• If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half
or all core taken.
• If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split,
etc and whether sampled wet or dry.
• For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.
• Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling
stages to maximise representivity of samples.
• Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is
representative of the in-situ material collected, including
for instance results for field duplicate/second-half
sampling.
• Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size
of the material being sampled.


Not applicable

All samples can be considered a grab or
scoop sample to collect enough material to
prepare a sample weight of 150-200grams

As the auger sampling is a first pass
geochemical sampling program to screen
the area it considered appropriate

3 field duplicates have been taken

Sample size is considered appropriate
Quality of assay
data and
laboratory tests
• The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying
and laboratory procedures used and whether the
technique is considered partial or total.
• For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF
instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the
analysis including instrument make and model, reading
times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation,
etc.


No geophysical tools, spectrometers or
hand held XRF instruments used.

The samples are sent to Bureau Veritas
laboratory in Perth where they are
weighed, dried pulverised and a 40g sample
collected for fire assay and then measured
by ICP-MS (lab method FA40_ICPMS)
Criteria JORC Code Explanation Commentary
Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg
standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory
checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie
lack of bias) and precision have been established.

The sampling program was conducted using
a suite of certified reference materials
including duplicates, blanks and standards
in the field, and additional lab inserted
blanks, standards and replicates

External laboratory checks have not been
conducted as they are not deemed material
to these results.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
• The verification of significant intersections by either
independent or alternative company personnel.
• The use of twinned holes.
• Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures,
data verification, data storage (physical and electronic)
protocols.
• Discuss any adjustment to assay data.

Not applicable

Not applicable

Primary field data was collected on a field
laptop, then sent to LEX where is was
entered to the companys datashed
database managed by external consultant
Maxwell Geoservices. The location of the
sample points has been spatially validated
by LEX using GIS software

No Data were adjusted
Location of data
points
• Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes
(collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings
and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation.
• Specification of the grid system used.
• Quality and adequacy of topographic control.

The sample points were located using a rig
mounted GPS capturing Northing, Easting
and reduced level

MGA 94 zone 51

The survey accuracy is considered
appropriate for this surface sampling
Data spacing and
distribution
• Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.
• Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient
to establish the degree of geological and grade
continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore
Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications
applied.
• Whether sample compositing has been applied.


Auger Sampling: Line spacing at 400m
spacing with sample centres at 50m North-
East, South West orientated drill lines.

Not Applicable

No sample compositing applied
Orientation of data
in relation to
geological
structure
• Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased
sampling of possible structures and the extent to which
this is known, considering the deposit type.
• If the relationship between the drilling orientation and
the orientation of key mineralised structures is
considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this
should be assessed and reported if material.

Not applicable

Not applicable
Sample security • The measures taken to ensure sample security.
The auger contractor despatched all
samples as one batch to Bureau Veritas
(BV) laboratory in Kalgoorlie. LEX where
notified when samples arrived. BV
Kalgoorlie then on sent the samples to the
BV lab in Perth. The samples are not left
unattended.
Audits or reviews • The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data.

No reviews by external parties

Section 2: REPORTING OF EXPLORATION RESULTS – Lefroy Gold Project- Regional Auger Soil Sampling Program – 5 Oct 20

Criteria JORC Code Explanation Commentary
Mineral tenement
and land tenure
status
• Type, reference name/number, location and
ownership including agreements or material
issues with third parties such as joint ventures,
partnerships, overriding royalties, native title
interests, historical sites, wilderness or
national park and environmental settings.
• The security of the tenure held at the time of
reporting along with any known impediments
to obtaining a licence to operate in the area.

The Lefroy Project is located approximately 50km
in a south easterly direction from Kalgoorlie,
Western Australia and consists of a contiguous
package of tenements covering approximately 621
square kilometres.

The tenements form a contagious package of
ground held by Lefroy Exploration and which make
up the Lefroy East package which is 100% owned
by Lefroy. The tenements are current and in good
standing with the Department of Mines, Industry
Regulation and Safety (DMIRS) of Western
Australia. The tenements are held by Monger
Exploration Pty Ltd and wholly owned subsidiary
of Lefroy Exploration Limited (LEX).
Exploration done by
other parties
• Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration
by other parties.

Some previous exploration work was completed
at Hang Glider Hill by Sovereign Resources NL and
documented in an Annual Report to the WA
Mines Department for the period 1 October 1992
to 30 September 1993. The Annual report
WAMEX file number is A39666. The report
documents 6 RC holes being drilled at Hang Glider
Hill.
• To the South of the Carnilya Hill Nickel mine work
was completed by BHP and WMC exploring
mostly for Nickel. Sporadic Diamond and RC
drilling was conducted on the tenements but the
holes were not assayed for gold, much of this
exploration occurred duringthe mid-1970-1980s.
Geology • Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.

The Lefroy Project is located in the southern part
of the Norseman Wiluna Greenstone Belt and
straddles the triple junction of three crustal units,
the Parker, Boorara and Bulong Domain. The
Lefroy project tenements are mostly covered by
alluvial, colluvial and lacustrine material with very
little outcrop. Archean geology at Hang Glider Hill
is referenced from WAMEX report A39666 and
field reconnaissance. It consists of a north west
trending foliated sequence of ultramafic, chert,
metasediments and felsic Volcanic rocks that dip
gently the to the south west. Hang Glider Hill
forms a prominent topographical feature and
interpreted by the Company to be a deformed
sequence of metasediment, chert and ultramafic
that may represent the position of the regional
Mt Monger Fault.
Drill hole
Information
• A summary of all information material to the
understanding of the exploration results
including a tabulation of the following
information for all Material drill holes:
• easting and northing of the drill hole collar
• elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation
above
sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar
• dip and azimuth of the hole
• down hole length and interception depth
• hole length.
• If the exclusion of this information is justified
on the basis that the information is not
Material and this exclusion does not detract
from the understanding of the report, the
Competent Person should clearly explain why
this is the case.

Analysis of historic WAMEX reports by Sovereign
Resources (A 39666) indicated the presence of
gold mineralisation identified from surface
sampling and RAB drilling of surface anomalies.

Diamond drilling by Lefroy Exploration in 2019 at
Hang Glider Hill confirmed gold mineralisation
around the hill. More regional AC drilling
completed in June 2020 by Lefroy was completed
to the North of the Lefroy Gold Project and
confirmed North-West trending stratigraphy and
weak gold mineralisation.
Criteria JORC Code Explanation Commentary
Data aggregation
methods
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting
averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum
grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and
cut-off grades are usually Material and should be
stated.
• Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short
lengths of high-grade results and longer lengths of
low-grade results, the procedure used for such
aggregation should be stated and some typical
examples of such aggregations should be shown in
detail.
• The assumptions used for any reporting of metal
equivalent values should be clearly stated.
• No weighting averaging, maximum and/or
minimum grade truncations or cut off grades
applied.
• Historic and recent LEX drill intercepts previously
reported in LEX ASX announcements
• No assumptions used for any metal equivalent
values.
Relationship between
mineralisation
widths and intercept
lengths
• These relationships are particularly important in
the reporting of Exploration Results.
• If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect
to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should
be reported.
• If it is not known and only the down hole lengths
are reported, there should be a clear statement to
this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not
known’).
• Not applicable for the surface samples reported.
Diagrams • Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and
tabulations of intercepts should be included for
any significant discovery being reported. These
should include, but not be limited to a plan view of
drill hole collar locations and appropriate
sectional views.
• Appropriate summary diagrams are included in this
announcement.
Balanced reporting • Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration
Results is not practicable, representative reporting
of both low and high grades and/or widths should
be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of
Exploration Results.
• See body of announcement including figures and
table
Other substantive
exploration data
• Other exploration data, if meaningful and
material, should be reported including (but not
limited to): geological observations; geophysical
survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk
samples – size and method of treatment;
metallurgical test results; bulk density,
groundwater, geotechnical and rock
characteristics; potential deleterious or
contaminating substances.

Other relevant exploration data for Hang Glider Hill
and its relationship to the nearby gold occurrences
have been included in this announcement
Further work • The nature and scale of planned further work (eg
tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or
large-scale step-out drilling).
• Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible
extensions, including the main geological
interpretations and future drilling areas, provided
this information is not commercially sensitive.
• Follow up exploration work has been documented
in the body of the report and will drilling. A
program of works (POW) for drilling has been
approved from the relevant State Government
authority.
