Coogee South Update-Aircore Drilling Outlines Two Geochemical Gold Anomalies

  • Encouraging assay results have been received for a maiden 136-hole 4056m geochemical based aircore drill program completed in September at the Coogee South prospect.

  • The Coogee South prospect is located within the wholly owned Eastern Lefroy Project and was nominated as the primary target for Lefroy at the time of its IPO prospectus in October 2016. The prospect:

  • covers 7.8km2 of a granted exploration licence,

  • adjoins and contains the immediate southern strike extension of the shallow, high-grade Coogee Open pit (20koz @ 5gpt), which was mined in 2014, and

  • has a geological/geophysical setting with similarities to Lefroy’s Burns Cu Au prospect, which is 14 km to the south-east of Coogee South.

  • The 136-hole close spaced program evaluated a 1500m long anomalous gold trend defined from historical drilling directly along strike of and to the southeast of the Coogee open pit

  • The results from this new phase of drilling have successfully generated two new broad gold anomalies known as Catalina and Bronte which are both open. Multiple holes ended (EOH) in anomalous gold mineralisation near or at the top of fresh rock. Significant results from the drilling include:

    • 3m @ 0.99g/t Au from 24m to EOH in LEFA967

    • 6m @ 0.38g/t Au from 12m to EOH in LEFA984

    • 4m @ 0.67g/t Au from 24m in LEFA992

    • 2m @ 0.84g/t Au from 24m to EOH in LEFA1004

    • 4m @ 1.48g/t Au from 36m to EOH in LEFA1020

    • 1m @ 1.40g/t Au from 29m to EOH in LEFA1022

  • The next phase of exploration is being planned and will involve a multiphase drilling program to evaluate the limits of the gold anomalies with a combination of AC, RC and diamond drilling.

Lefroy Exploration Managing Director, Wade Johnson said “ We are very encouraged by the results from the short, focussed drill program at Coogee South and so soon after excising the area from the WLFI. The two new gold anomalies derived from shallow drilling at Catalina and Bronte, each with different characteristics, has generated targets for immediate follow up drilling that we will schedule between programs at the priority Burns project”

ASX Announcement 4 November 2021

Lefroy Exploration Limited (ASX: LEX) (“Lefroy” or “the Company”) is pleased to report the results from a maiden 136-hole aircore (AC) drilling program at the recently acquired Coogee South prospect. Coogee South is located within the wholly owned Eastern Lefroy tenement package, which is part of the wholly owned greater Lefroy Gold Project (LGP) located 50km southeast of Kalgoorlie (Figure 1).

The LGP is a commanding, semi-contiguous, granted land package that covers 637.6km2 immediately east of and adjoining the world class +10Moz St Ives Gold camp, which is owned and operated by Gold Fields. The project is also immediately south of the high-grade Mt Monger gold centre operated by Silver Lake Resources Limited (ASX:SLR) (“Silver Lake”). LGP is referenced in two packages:

  • Eastern Lefroy covering 265.6km2 of wholly owned tenements (Figure 1) including Lucky Strike, Red Dale, Hang Glider Hill, Havelock, Burns, Coogee South and other sub-projects along or near the regional scale Mt Monger fault, and

  • Western Lefroy Farm-in (“WLFI”) tenements (Figure 1) covering 372km2 adjoining the Gold Fields tenements that make up the St Ives mining operation. Gold Fields can earn up to a 70% interest in the LEX tenements by spending up to a total of $25million on exploration activities within 6 years of the commencement date, 7 June 2018.

Coogee South Drill Program

The Coogee South Prospect is located immediately along strike to the south of the high-grade (+5g/t Au) Coogee open pit (Figure 2 & 3), which was successfully mined by Ramelius Resources Limited (“Ramelius” and ASX: RMS) during 2014. Coogee South was excised from the Western Lefroy Farm-in (WLFI) and JV and returned as a 100% owned project to the Company on 18 June 2021 (refer LEX ASX release 2 August 2021).

A 136-hole first pass AC program for a total of 4056m was completed by the Company in September at Coogee South.

This early-stage drill program aimed to evaluate a priority target area immediately along strike to the south of the Coogee open pit (Figure 2). A limited phase of RC drilling in 2006 recorded a best intersection of 17m at 1.67g/t Au from 99m in CSRC03 within the Coogee South excision (Figure 2). This target remains open down dip and along strike.

The 136-hole air core drilling program evaluated the 1500m corridor defined by historical shallow rotary air blast drilling (RAB) with close spaced (80m line & 40m centres) drilling (Figure 2). The holes are effectively a geochemical sampling program designed to outline and generate regolith (oxide rock) gold anomalies for follow up deeper RC drill evaluation.

Results

Drilling has successfully generated two new broad gold anomalies known as Catalina and Bronte (Figure 2). The aircore (AC) drilling technique provides a rapid first pass coverage of new areas to gather samples from the top of the bedrock or fresh rock. It generates anomalies in the bedrock for follow up RC or diamond core drill testing

Depth to cover ranges from 4 to 14m, with an average of 8m. Transported cover is largely ferruginous aeolian sand. Below the base of alluvium is a pallid zone or mottled zone which forms a flat layer that is on average to 18m downhole.

The drilling encountered a hard silica band, representing silicified bedrock which is interpreted to be a regolith effect. Numerous holes were not able to penetrate this band and may not have been an effective test of the targets. Generally, the holes that penetrated through the silica band returned better gold results.

The key rock units identified comprise a sequence of felsic to intermediate volcanics including rhyolite, dacite and andesite. There is also a diorite porphyry encountered mainly in the western most holes at Catalina and through the majority of the holes at Bronte.

Significant results from the program (Table 1) include:

  • 3m @ 0.99g/t Au from 24m to EOH in LEFA967

  • 6m @ 0.38g/t Au from 12m to EOH in LEFA984

  • 4m @ 0.67g/t Au from 24m in LEFA992

  • 2m @ 0.84g/t Au from 24m to EOH in LEFA1004

  • o 4m @ 1.48g/t Au from 36m to EOH in LEFA1020 o 1m @ 1.40g/t Au from 29m to EOH in LEFA1022

The Catalina gold anomaly (Figure 3) is 800m in strike and located immediately south of the tenement boundary. The anomaly has a northwest trend that is coincident with a magnetite altered rock unit. Catalina has a coincident gold copper anomaly and is considered to be similar to the mineralisation at Coogee with the strongest anomalism coincident with the interpreted continuation of the flat dipping Coogee structure (refer Figure 5)

In contrast, the Bronte gold anomaly is approximately 400m (Figure 4) in strike and has a more northerly trending aspect. The key rock type at Bronte is a diorite porphyry and there is no associated copper anomalism (refer Figure 6). The Bronte anomaly is open to the south with some of the higher tenor gold intercepts being from the southernmost drill traverse

Next Steps

Planning of the next phase of exploration at Coogee South is underway. The program will include RC drilling to test down dip of the recent intersections and additional AC drilling to extend the limits of the new anomalies at Catalina and Bronte. Initial diamond drilling will also evaluate the key geological and structural characteristics of the Coogee South Prospect (Figure 2). Drilling is scheduled to commence in the March Quarter 2022

JORC CODE, 2012 Edition-Table 1 Report –Lefroy Project –Coogee South Prospect-as 3 November 2021 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 Aircore (AC) drilling at the
Coogee South Prospect. The AC program
comprised 136 vertical holes for 4056m,
holes varying in depth from 5-63m with an
average depth of 30m. All holes were drilled
vertically on predominantly on 80m north
south line spacing with holes at 40m centres.

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

AC samples were collected from the cyclone
at 1m intervals and laid out in rows of 10 or
20m (10-20 samples) on the ground.
Composite 4m samples were then collected
by scoop sampling the 1m piles with a flour
scoop to produce a bulk 2-3kg sample which
was sent to the Laboratory in Perth for
analysis. Samples were dried, pulverised,
split to produce a 40g sample for analysis by
Aqua Regia.
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 AirCore (AC) drilling was completed by
Raglan Drilling (Kalgoorlie). The AC drill bit
has a diameter of 78mm and collects
samples through an inner tube to reduce
contamination, but also allows better
penetration through any palaeochannel
puggy clays and fine sands. Aircore drilling is
to blade refusal and hence terminates in
fresh or hard material such as quartz. In
certain circumstances a hammer drill bit was
used to obtain greater penetration in hard
rock to obtain a fresh rock sample.
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.

Nearly all of the samples collected from the
AC drill program were dry.

Sample recovery size and sample condition
(dry, wet, moist) recorded. Recovery of
samples estimated to be 80-100%, with
some variability to 10% particularly drilling
through puggy moist transported clays.

Drilling with care (eg. clearing hole at start
of rod, regular cyclone cleaning) if water
encountered to reduce incidence of wet –
sticky sample and cross contamination.

Insufficient sample population to determine
whether relationship exists between sample
recovery and grade. The quality of the
sample (wet, dry, low recovery) was
recorded duringlogging.
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.

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

Logging carried out by sieving 2m composite
sample cuttings, washing in water and the
entire hole collected in plastic chip trays for
future reference.

Every hole was logged for the entire length.

Magnetic susceptibility measurements were
recorded on the last sample interval of
each hole
Criteria JORC Code Explanation Commentary
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.


No core drilling completed

Composite samples of 4m were collected by
scoop sampling 1m intervals into pre-
numbered calico bags. Sample weight 2 - 3
kg. The last interval of each hole is a 1m
sample and the second last composite can
vary between 1-4m. Collected composite
samples placed in paper oat bags for
despatch to assay laboratory.
• The sample preparation of the AC follows
industry best practice, involving oven drying,
pulverising, to produce a homogenous sub
sample for analysis.
• Along with composite samples, standards
and
blanks
were
randomly
inserted
(approximately every 20 samples) and were
included
in
the
laboratory
analysis.
Standards were certified reference material
prepared by Geostats Pty Ltd.Duplicate
samples were collected at zones of interest.
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.
• 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 Aqua Regia digest method with
ICP-MS finish at Bureau Veritas’s Perth
Laboratory. A separate Bottom of Hole
(BOH) sample was also collected and
analysed for a suite of multi elements, the
results of which have been received for and
used to assist in geological interpretation.

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

Quality
control
process
and
internal
laboratory checks demonstrate acceptable
levels of accuracy. At the laboratory
regular assay repeats, lab standards, checks
and blanks are 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
by
alternative company personnel and minor
sampling
errors
identified
were
field
checked and corrected.

No holes were twinned.

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 will be loaded to
the Company’s DATASHED database and
validation checks completed to ensure data
accuracy. Assay files are received
electronically from the laboratory by the
Managing
Director
and
filed
to
the
Company’s server.

There has been no adjustment to the assay
data. The primary Au field reported by the
laboratory is the value used for plotting,
interrogatingand 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
hand-held Garmin GPS with a horizontal
(Easting Northing) accuracy of +-5m. No
downhole surveys completed.

Grid System – MGA94 Zone 51.

Topographic elevation captured by using
reading from Garmin hand-held GPS with an
accuracy of +-10m and considered suitable
for the flat terrain.
Criteria JORC Code Explanation Commentary
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 40m centres on NE-
SW orientated drill lines with line spacing
varying from 80m to 160m.

AC samples composite range 1-4m but
generally 4m. No assay compositing has
been 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.

• The NE-SW orientated drill traverses were
considered effective to evaluate the north
westerly trending geology and interpreted
Coogee
Structure
which
has
been
interpreted from trends in historic drilling.
The
drilling
was
a
geochemical
reconnaissance program and the holes are
orientated appropriately to ensure unbiased
sampling of the geological trends
• The AC drilling is reconnaissance in nature,
being relatively wide spaced and the
orientation
of
the
gold
mineralised
structures
intersected
is
yet
to
be
confirmed.
Sample security • The measures taken to ensure sample security.
Individual composite samples were bagged
in paper oat bags, collected and personally
delivered to the Bureau Veritas Laboratory
in Kalgoorlie by the Lefroy Field Supervisor.
Samples were sorted and despatched to
Bureau Veritas Perth laboratory.

Bureau Veritas check the samples received
against the Lefroy submission form to notify
of any missing or extra samples. Following
analysis, the sample pulps and residues are
retained by the laboratory in a secure
storageyard.
Audits or reviews • The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data.

All results of this drill program were
reviewed
by
the
Senior
Exploration
Geologist and Managing Director, and
anomalous gold intersections inspected in
the field to correlate with geology. No
specific site audits or reviews have been
conducted.

Section 2: REPORTING OF EXPLORATION RESULTS – LEFROY PROJECT-Coogee South Prospect

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
50 km in a south easterly direction from
Kalgoorlie, Western Australia and consists of
a contiguous package of tenements covering
approximately 640 square kilometres.

The work described in this report was
undertaken on Exploration Licence E26/184.
The tenement is current and in good
standing with the Department of Mines,
Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS) of
Western Australia. The tenement is held
under title by Hogans Resources Pty Ltd, a
wholly
owned
subsidiary
of
Lefroy
Exploration Ltd. The tenement is a part of
the Western Lefroy Joint Venture with Gold
Fields Limited, however the Coogee South
work area was excised from the Joint
Venture in June 2021.
Exploration done by
other parties
• Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by
other parties.

For Full details of exploration completed by
other parties at the Lefroy Project refer to
the Independent Geologists Report (‘IGR’)
attached to the LEX prospectus (2016).

Previous work on the Coogee South
prospect
was
completed
by
North
Limited/Geopeko during 1991-1995 and
Gladiator Resources Limited during 2005 to
2011.
Geology • Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.

For full details of the geological settings at
the Lefroy Project refer to the Independent
Geologists Report attached to the LEX
prospectus (2016).

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. The project is underlain by a
folded and fault bounded sequence of
Archaean rocks, and in the Coogee South
area
being
predominantly
felsic
to
intermediate volcanics. The key structural
element at Coogee South is the interpreted
north-south Coogee Structure; a shallow
dipping shear zone that hosts the high-
grade mineralisation in the Coogee open pit
to the north.
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 >0.10gpt Au) drill holes are
included in Table 1 in the body of the
announcement.
• No Information has been excluded.
• There are historical drill holes within the
Coogee South Prospect and these are
depicted on the drill hole plan in the
announcement.
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 0.10gpt Au has been used to identify
significant results depicted on Figures in the
text. These are considered significant given
the first pass reconnaissance nature of the
drilling.

Table 2 in the body of the report presents all
individual composite results greater than
0.10g/t Au with a maximum of 2m internal
dilution.

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’ .

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.
• Given the wide spaced reconnaissance
nature of the drilling the geometry of the
mineralisation reported is not sufficiently
known and the true width is not known
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
2 for the recent LEX drill program.
• Significant assay results from historical
drilling are noted in the text and figures of
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.
• Follow up air core, RC and diamond drilling is
being considered to allow for further testing
of the Coogee trend defined by the air core
drilling and historical data.
