EAGLE EXPLORATION RESULTS & CORPORATE ACTIVITY UPDATE
New Discovery at Eagle
Analyses from the first of 3 reverse circulation (RC) holes drilled beneath the Eagle pit, approximately 1.5km south of the Gidgee mill, has returned significant 4m composite results, including
GDC105: 4 metres at 21.2q/t gold from 180m downhole 4 metres at 8.0g/t gold from 212m and 4 metres at 5.9g/t gold from 232m
Gold mineralisation occurs in strongly altered dolerite within an interpreted dilational zone associated with the flexure from the NW orientated Kingfisher corridor to the N-S orientated Swan Bitter corridor. The intersections are located within the proposed target zone, and appear to confirm the model for moderately west dipping mineralization.
The Eagle target has had no previous drilling deeper than 100m, and Legend believe these results indicate the potential for a third front to compliment the discoveries at Premium and Gulliver.
Dip/azimuth at collar: GDC105, 55°/070° Notes: 4m composite samples, analysis by 30g fire assay/AAS by SGS Mt Magnet Laboratory All composite samples >4m at 2.0g/t Au reported as length-weighted average
