  • These results are from drilling that evaluated and infilled 480m of strike of the main BIF unit to a vertical depth of 150m

  • The intersection in LEFR217 is now the highest gram meter intersection at Lucky Strike to date and further supports an interpreted south east plunging main lode, which is open

  • The intersections in LEFR199 and LEFR220 support previous hole LEFR140 (18m @6.57g/t Au) and further support the existence of a second south east plunging lode which is also open

  • RC drilling at Lucky Strike to date is confined to a 740m corridor within the 3000m long Lucky Strike trend defined by wide spaced air core drilling

  • This drill information will be incorporated in the preparation of a maiden resource estimate at Lucky Strike which is due to be completed in the June 2020 Quarter

ASX Announcement, 26 February 2020

ASX Announcement 26 February 2020

The Board of Lefroy Exploration Limited (ASX: LEX) (“Lefroy” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce further outstanding results from a recent program of reverse circulation (RC) drilling at Lucky Strike, within the Eastern Lefroy tenement package (Figure 1). Eastern Lefroy is part of the greater Lefroy Gold Project (LGP) located 50km to the south east of Kalgoorlie. Lucky Strike and its strike extensions are wholly within the granted (12 April 2019) Mining Lease M25/366 (Figure 2).

Figure 1 Lefroy Gold Project showing Eastern and Western Lefroy and the location of Lucky Strike relative to the Hang Glider Hill gold prospect. Mining Lease M25/366 is also highlighted. Refer to Figure 2 for detailed map of the Lucky Strike exploration area.

This release covers the results from a recent campaign of 37 holes (LEFR183-LEFR220) that were aimed at the definition of the shallow oxide mineralisation within the Banded Iron Formation host rock to underpin a maiden Resource Estimate.

Lucky Strike is located approximately 35km north east of Gold Fields St Ives processing plant and 5km south west of the Randalls Processing Plant operated by Silver Lake Resources (ASX: SLR) (Figure 2).

The Lucky Strike Trend was identified as a prospective structural corridor, adjacent to the regional scale Mt Monger Fault (Figures 1 & 2), after integration of previous exploration with detailed ground gravity data. The area near Lucky Strike is a continued high priority exploration focus for the Company, with gold anomalies identified at Red Dale, Havelock, Neon, Capstan and more recently Mulga3 and Burns highlighting the district scale gold prospectivity (Figures 1 & 2)

Drill Program

The RC drill program was designed to infill and evaluate 480m of strike of shallow oxide gold mineralisation hosted by a Banded Iron Formation (BIF) which was identified from multiple phases of step out (80m) RC and diamond drilling during 2019.

The results of that step out drilling confirmed the continuity of the BIF under transported cover to the south east and highlighted a deeply weathered (oxidised) metasedimentary sequence of rocks, including BIF, wedged between a hanging wall andesite and a footwall basalt. The BIF in this location is preferentially oxidised to approximately 200m from surface and interpreted to be due the effects of weathering of alteration minerals such as pyrite.

The most recent phases of RC drilling (LEX:ASX release 20 November 2019) intersected impressive shallow oxide gold intersections within the BIF that confirm and reinforce the interpretation of a new BIF hosted plunging lode centered on the impressive intersection in hole LEFR140 (18m @6.57g/t Au from 68m) that is open down plunge. This lode and the plunge geometry are further supported by the intersection in LEFR146, also in oxide BIF, and which is open. The plunge orientation of this new lode is consistent with that observed from drilling in the main drilled area of Lucky Strike (Figure 4).

ASX Announcement, 26 February 2020

ASX Announcement 26 February 2020

An RC drilling program was commenced in January 2020 to infill and better constrain the oxide gold mineralisation that had been defined by prior wide spaced sections (80m spaced) and holes and to a vertical depth of 150m.

The program consisted of 37 holes for 5401m of drilling on ten drill sections to evaluate approximately 480m of strike immediately to the south-east of the Lucky Strike discovery zone (Figure 3). The angled holes were spaced at nominal 20 or 40m centres on each of the ten drill sections completed, the majority of the holes ranging in depth from130m to 160m.

==> picture [424 x 351] intentionally omitted <==

The results from the RC drilling program (Table 1) confirm two robust zones of oxide gold mineralisation that are interpreted to form the shallow expression of shallowly plunging ore shoots that remain open at depth. The gold mineralisation is hosted within a main BIF unit that has been defined over a 740m strike length and is open to the south east and under cover.

Lesser gold mineralisation has also been intersected in a lower or footwall BIF unit. This unit is better mineralised where the two BIF units converge at the north west end of the system (refer Long section Figure 4).

ASX Announcement

Outstanding gold intersections were recorded from the recent drilling in each of these ore shoots as follows: -

  • 8m @ 18.6g/t Au from 145m in LEFR217

  • incl. 5m @ 28.1g/t Au from 145m

  • 4m at @14.3g/t Au from 70m in LEFR199

  • incl. 2m @ 24.1g/t Au from 70m

Other significant results returned (Table1) from the program include: -

  • 3m at 7.79g/t Au from 130m in LEFR190

  • 11m at 3.48g/t Au from 170m in LEFR216

  • 5m at 2.41g/t Au from 98m in LEFR200

  • 11m at 2.29g/t Au from 95m in LEFR205

  • 13m at 1.41g/t Au from 92m in LEFR218

  • 11m at 1.29g/t Au from 118m in LEFR220

The exceptional very high-grade gold intersection in LEFR217 is hosted within a partly oxidised sulphide altered BIF unit. The BIF unit is thickening or widening with depth, and this broader zone may represent a structural thickening due to folding of the BIF. The high-grade intersection in LEFR217 is confined within a shallowly south east plunging zone of gold mineralisation (ore shoot) that is open both down dip and down plunge. This ore shoot has a down plunge extent of approximately 500m and is open.

The shallow high-grade intersection in LEFR199 is within an interpreted strongly oxidised BIF unit (Figures 3 & 4) that represents the near surface position of a new plunging lode centered on the discovery hole LEFR140(18m @6.57g/t Au). This lode and the plunge geometry are further supported by the intersection in LEFR220, which is also in oxide BIF (Figure 4) and is open. The plunge orientation of this new lode is consistent with that observed from drilling in the main area of Lucky Strike (refer long section Figure 4). The mineralisation in LEFR220 is open along strike to the south east and down plunge and offers a new exploration opportunity at Lucky Strike

It is important to note that the high grade mineralisation intersected in holes LEFR140, 146 and 199 is masked beneath approximately 12m of transported cover which remained unrecognised in previous (2017) wide spaced (80m by 160m) aircore drilling by the Company. The discovery of this new mineralisation was guided by the coincidence of the deepening level of oxidation to the south east of Lucky Strike and the linear gravity anomaly.

Gold mineralisation in the BIF-metasediment package at Lucky Strike now has a strike length of 740m and remains open to the south east (Figure 2 & 3). This area has only been evaluated by wide spaced air core drilling beneath the transported cover.

Key gold intersections and interpreted plunge of gold system with depth to top of fresh rock (TOFR) increasing to the south east are also shown. The extent of the mineralisation in the lower BIF is shown superimposed on the main BIF.

Discussion and Next Steps

The results from the recent phase of infill RC drilling provide further support for the interpretation that Lucky Strike is part of a larger mineralised structural trend.

The ten infill drill sections that evaluated 480m of strike at the south east part of Lucky Strike intersected a very deep oxidation trough within BIF with associated gold mineralisation that is dissimilar to the main part of Lucky Strike. The earlier drilled part of Lucky Strike contains multiple BIF units and relatively shallow depth to fresh rock (refer long section Figure 4).

The increased drill density focusing on the shallow oxide mineralisation has both improved the confidence in the dimensions of this to a vertical depth of approximately 150m but also provided a stronger input to the geometry of the primary control on the mineralisation, recognised as the two ore shoots. The grade within and the continuity of these shoots provides confidence in the down plunge potential but also the opportunity to discover additional blind or hidden ore shoots along strike.

The new drill data continues to reinforce the Company’s view that Lucky Strike is part of a larger gold mineralised structure that has limited deeper effective RC drilling along its strike length.

Planning of the next stage of RC drilling is underway and will include step out drilling down plunge from LEFR217 and 220. Concurrent with the drilling the Company aims to commence resource modelling to deliver a maiden resource estimate in the June 2020 Quarter.

JORC CODE, 2012 Edition-Table 1 Report –Lefroy Project –Lucky Strike Prospect February 2020 RC Drilling

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.

The sampling noted in this release has been carried out
using Reverse Circulation (RC) at the Lucky Strike
prospect. The RC program comprised 37 angled holes for
5401m. Holes varying in depth from 72m to 220m with an
average depth of 145m. All holes were drilled -600(dip)
toward 0300(Azimuth) with the exception of LEFR217
which started at -620. Holes were generally spaced along
20m centres on lines 20m to 40m apart.

Sampling and QAQC protocols as per industry best
practice with further details below.

RC bulk samples were collected from the cyclone at 1m
intervals in plastic buckets and arranged in rows of 10 or
20 samples. 1m split samples were collected from 0m to
end of hole (EOH). 1m split samples were collected
directly off the drill rig cone splitter into calico bags
attached to the cyclone. The sample collected generally
weighed 2-3kg. 4m composite samples were collected
using a scoop to produce a 2-3kg sample from 0m to end
of hole collected from the bulk samples except where the
geologist logs BIF (Banded Iron Formation) which is
generally the host lithology to gold mineralisation at Lucky
Strike and as such the 1m split sample direct off the
cyclone was sent to the laboratory for analysis. Upon
receival of the 4m composite results outside of the BIF,
1m split samples were then collected from anomalous
gold intervals (>0.1g/t Au). The 1m samples were sent to
the Laboratory in Kalgoorlie for analysis. The samples
were dried, pulverised, split to produce a 40g charge for
analysis by fire assay with Au determination by Atomic
Absorption Spectrometry (AAS).
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).

The Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling was completed by a
KWL350RC rig from Challenge Drilling (Kalgoorlie). Low air
face sampling hammer drilling proved satisfactory to
penetrate the regolith and reduce contamination risk.
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 to
preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse
material.


Most of the samples remained dry with good recovery
obtained. Where samples were wet/moist or experienced
less than desired recovery this was instantly evident in
size of the bulk sample laid on the ground and was
carefully recorded by a Lefroy representative on hard copy
sample sheets.

Drilling with care (e.g. clearing hole at start of rod, regular
cyclone cleaning) if water encountered, to reduce
incidence of wet –sticky sample and cross contamination,
the cyclone was cleaned out again at the end of each drill
rod.

Below 100m down-hole depth, water ingress into the RC
hole could be problematic, this was anticipated and
measures such as increasing the collar casing depth at the
start of the hole greatly improved the sample quality and
helped keep the samples dry. If the sample was wet this
was recorded by Lefroy field personnel. Insufficient
sample population to determine whether relationship
exists between sample recovery and grade. The quality of
the sample (wet, dry, low recovery) was recorded during
logging.
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


Detailed logging of, regolith, lithology, structure, veining,
alteration, mineralisation and recoveries recorded in each
hole by qualified geologist.

Logging carried out by sieving individual 1m sample
cuttings, washing in water and the entire hole collected in

channel, etc) photography.
• The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections logged.

Every hole was logged for the entire length.
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

• 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.

Sampling of 1m intervals directly off a rig-mounted cone
splitter into separate calico bags. Sample weight 2 - 3 kg.
A 4m composite sample was collected, from 0m to EOH
for each hole. The composite samples were collected by
using a scoop to collect a representative “split” from each
bulk sample that made up a 4m composite interval, this
was placed into a pre-numbered calico bag. Pre-numbered
calico bags containing the samples were despatched to
the laboratory for assay. Upon receival of results for 4m
composite samples, selected 1m resplit samples (collected
at cyclone) were collected in the field for submission by
the same fire assay technique.
• The sample preparation of the RC samples follows
industry best practice, involving oven drying, pulverising,
to produce a homogenous sub sample for analysis.
• Along with submitted samples, standards and blanks were
inserted on a regular basis where the pre-numbered calico
bag ended with the numbers 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100.
Standards were certified reference material prepared by
Geostats Pty Ltd.Duplicate samples were collected at
zones of interest and at irregular intervals of about 2 per
hole.

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.
• 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.


Samples routinely analysed for gold using the 40gram Fire
Assay digest method with an AAS finish at Bureau
Veritas’s Kalgoorlie Laboratory.

Quality control process and internal laboratory checks
demonstrate acceptable levels of accuracy. At the
laboratory regular assay repeats, lab standards, checks
and blanks were analysed.
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.

The results have been reviewed and verified by alternative
company personnel.

No holes were planned to twin prior drill holes.

Capture of field logging is electronic using Toughbook
hardware and Logchief software. Logged data is then
exported as an excel spreadsheet to the Company’s
external database managers which is then loaded to the
Company’s DATASHED database and validation checks
completed to ensure data accuracy. Assay files are
received electronically from the laboratory and filed to
the Company’s server, and provided to the external
database manager.

There has been no adjustment to the assay data. The
primary gold (Au) field reported by the laboratory is the
priority value used for plotting, interrogating and
reporting.
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.

Drill hole positions were surveyed using a DGPS operated
by a third-party contracting surveyor. The same
contractor was used once drilling was completed to pick-
up collar positions using a DGPS. Down holes surveys were
completed by Challenge and Raglan drill crew using a gyro
and recording a survey every <30m down the hole.

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.

Hole spacing at nominal 20m to 40m centres on 0300
orientated drill lines with line spacing 20m around
previous Lefroy drilling.

Mineralisation at Lucky Strike is constrained to a particular
iron rich geological unit logged as a BIF (banded iron
formation). Holes were sampled using 4m composite
samples for the entire length of the hole. Where BIF was
logged by the geologist and/or >0.1g/t Au in collected 4m
composite samples was intercepted, 1m samples were
collected and sent to the laboratory for analysis by fire
assay.
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.
• The North-East orientated drill traverses are considered
effective to evaluate the roughly North-West trending
banded iron formation (BIF) stratigraphic unit which is
interpreted to be the prospective host rock. The RC drill
holes were intended as follow-up work to assess previous
Lefroy AC and DD drill holes which were orientated on
East-West drill lines which intercepted high gold grades
and favourable geology.
• The drill orientation is a more effective test of “true”
width of the host rock due to the fact the host rock unit is
striking roughly North-West/South-East.
Sample security • The measures taken to ensure sample
security.

Samples were bagged in labelled and numbered
polyweave or plastic bags, collected and personally
delivered to the Bureau Veritas Laboratory (Kalgoorlie) by
Company field personnel. Samples were then sorted and
checked for inconsistencies against lodged Submission
sheet by Bureau Veritas staff.

Bureau Veritas checked the samples received against the
Lefroy Exploration Limited (LEX) submission sheet to
notify of any missing or extra samples. Following analysis,
the sample, pulps and residues are retained by the
laboratoryin a secure storageyard.
Audits or reviews • The results of any audits or reviews of
sampling techniques and data.

All sampling and analytical results of the drill program
were reviewed by the Senior Exploration Geologist and
Managing Director. Anomalous gold intersections were
checked against library chip trays to correlate with
geology. No specific audits or reviews have been
conducted.

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 50 km in
south east from Kalgoorlie, Western Australia and
consists of a contiguous package of wholly owned
tenements held under title by LEX or its wholly owned
subsidiary Monger Exploration Pty Ltd. The work
described in this report was completed on a Mining
lease M 25/366.

M25/366 is held 100% by Monger Exploration Pty Ltd
a wholly owned subsidiary of Lefroy Exploration
Limited
• The tenements are current and in good standing with
the Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP) of
Western Australia.
Exploration done by
other parties
• Acknowledgment and appraisal of
exploration by other parties.

Some previous exploration work was completed on
the Lucky Strike trend by Integra Mining Limited,
Western Mining and Octagonal Resources. The bulk of
this work included phases of Aircore (AC). This work
identified mineralisation along the trend, however no
previous explorer identified mineralisation at Lucky
Strike and as such this is a new discovery by Lefroy
Exploration.
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. Lucky
Strike is hosted in banded iron formation within a
thin (<300m approx.) package of metamorphosed
sediments, sandwiched between basalt and high Mg
basalt stratigraphy. It lies proximal to the GSWA’s
interpreted position for the domain bounding north-
west trending Mount Monger Fault. It is unknown
what the relationship is between these sediments
and the surrounding mafic stratigraphy and how that
fits in with the well-studied stratigraphy of the
Kalgoorlie Terrane.
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.
• Table containing drill hole collar, survey and
intersection data for material (gold intersections
>0.25gpt Au with a max of 2m internal dilution) drill
holes are included in the Table in the body of the
announcement.
• No Information has been excluded.
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.



All report grades have been length weighted. High
grades have not been cut. A lower cut off of 0.25gpt
Au has been used to identify significant results
(intersections).

Where present, higher grade values are included in
the intercepts table and assay values equal to or > 1.0
g/t Au have been stated on a separate line below the
intercept assigned with the text ‘includes’.
• Reported RC results have been calculated using 1m
split samples. No metal equivalent values or formulas
used.
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’).


All results are based on down-hole metres.
• Previous drill coverage has provided guidance for the
presence of steeply dipping stratigraphy comprising a
sedimentary package of rocks containing banded iron
formations (BIF) which provide a good host rock for
gold mineralisation. A ground magnetic survey
completed in 2018 over the area of interest confirms a
NW strike of the magnetic sediments within the
stratigraphy and hence has guided the orientation of
drilling for this program. Structural measurements on
orientated diamond drill core from a previous Lefroy
Exploration drill program also assisted in decided
which orientation to drill these follow up RC holes.
Results from this drill program do not represent ‘true
widths’ however holes are designed to intercept the
host sequenceperpendicular to its strike.
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 (section & plan) are
included in the accompanying 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.
• Significant assay results are provided in Table 1 for the
recent LEX RC drill program.
• Drill holes with no significant results (>2m and
>0.50g/t Au) are not reported.
• Significant assay results from historical drilling are
noted in the bodyof the report.
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.

All relevant data has been included within this report.
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.
• The appropriate next stage of exploration planning is
currently underway and noted in the body of the
report.
