Significant sulphides intersected at Webbs Consol Silver Project

Highlights

  • Sulphides zones intersected in first 6 drills holes at Webbs Consol Silver Project

  • Significant zinc, lead and copper mineralisation observed in drill core with associated silver mineralisation also expected

  • Best intercept to date is 27.5 metres containing an estimated 15% sphalerite, 1% galena and 0.5% chalcopyrite drill hole WCS006

  • Drilling ongoing testing down dip extensions and additional project targets

Lode Resources Ltd (ASX: LDR or ‘Lode’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to provide an update on the Company’s maiden drill program at the Webbs Consol Silver Project in NSW.

Webbs Consol Silver Project Sulphide Intercepts

To date 6 drill holes have been completed at the Webbs Consol Silver Project’s maiden drill programme for 813.8 metres.

Mineralisation styles encountered range from coarse sulphide blebs to massive irregular sulphide veins as shown in Photos 1 & 2. All drill hole intercepts have been cut and samples have been dispatched to ALS in Brisbane with assays anticipated in 3-4 weeks.

Drill hole WCS006 has intersected a very encouraging 27.5 metres (104.6 metres to 132.1 metres) containing an estimated 15% sphalerite ((Zn,Fe)S), 1% galena (PbS) and 0.5% chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) down hole. Estimated true width is 14.2 metres. See Photo 3 shown overleaf.

Significant silver mineralisation is also expected to be shown in assays as silver is known to be strongly associated with both sphalerite and galena at the Webbs Consol Silver Project[1] .

Webbs Consol Silver Project Overview

Located 16km west-south-west of Emmaville, Webbs Consol was discovered in 1890 with intermittent mining up to the mid-1950s. The Webbs Consol Silver Project (EL8933) contains several small, but high grade, silver-lead-zinc-gold deposits hosted by the Webbs Consol Leucogranite which has intruded the Late Permian Emmaville Volcanics and undifferentiated Early Permian sediments.

Several mine shafts were worked for the high-grade galena and silver content only with high-grade zinc mineralisation discarded. Mineral concertation was via basic Chilean milling techniques and sluicing. Some subsequent rough floatation of galena was carried out with no attempt to recover sphalerite.

Ore mineralogy includes galena, sphalerite, marmatite, arsenopyrite, pyrite, chalcopyrite, minor bismuth and gold. Chief minerals generally disseminated but also high grade “bungs” where emplacement is a combination of fracture infilling and country rock replacement. Gangue mineralogy includes quartz, chlorite and sericite with quartz occurring as veins and granular relicts.

Historical sampling shows potential for high grade silver and zinc mineralisation at Webbs Consol. It was reported that 12 samples taken from the lowest level of the main Webbs Consol shaft (“205’ Level” or 60m depth) averaged 210g/t silver, 22.6% zinc and 2.74% lead. Epithermal style mineralisation occurs in ‘en échelon’ vertical pipe like bodies at the intersection of main north-south shear and secondary northeastsouthwest fractures. No leaching or secondary enrichment has been identified.

JORC Code, 2012 Edition - Table 1.

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
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.

Diamond drilling techniques were used to obtain
samples.

NQ2 core was logged and sample intervals
assigned based on the geology.

The core to be sampled was sawn in half and
bagged according to sample intervals. Intervals
range from 0.2m to 1.2m

Blanks and standards were inserted at >5% where
appropriate.

Samples were sampled by a qualified geologist.

No assays have been received at time of report
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,bywhat method,etc).

All drilling is Diamond drilling (core), NQ2 in size.

Core was collected using a standard tube.

Core is orientated every run (3m) using the
truecoreMT UPIX system.
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.

Core recoveries are measured using standard
industry best practice.

Core loss is recorded in the logging.

Core recovery in the surface lithologies is poor.

Core recovery in fresh rock is excellent with >99%
recovered from 12m downhole depth.

No assays have been received at time of report.
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.

Holes are logged to a level of detail that would
support mineral resource estimation.

Qualitative logging includes lithology, alteration,
texture, colour and structures.

Quantitative logging includes sulphide and gangue
mineral percentages.

All drill core was photographed wet and dry.

All drill holes have been logged in full.

Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative
in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc)
photography.

The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections 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 beingsampled.

Core was prepared using standard industry best
practice.

The core was sawn in half using a diamond core
saw and half core was sent to ALS Brisbane for
assay.

No assays have been received at time of report.

No duplicate sampling has been conducted.

Samples intervals ranged from 0.2m to 1.2m. The
average sample size was 1m in length. The
sample size is considered appropriate for the
material being sampled.
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.

No assays have been received at time of report.

Samples were stored in a secure location and
transported to the ALS laboratory in Brisbane
QLD via a certified courier. Sample preparation
comprised drying (DRY-21), weighed, crushing
(CRU-31) and pulverised (PUL-32).

The assay methods used will be ME-ICP61 and
Au-AA25 (refer to ALS assay codes). ME-ICP61
(25g) is a four-acid digestion with ICP-AES finish.
Au-AA25 (30g) is a fire assay method.

Certified standards and blanks were inserted at a
rate of >5% at the appropriate locations.

The assay methods employed are considered
appropriate for near total digestion.
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.

No assays have been received at time of report.

Whether sample compositing has been
applied.

The data spacing, distribution and geological
understanding is not currently sufficient for the
estimation of mineral resource estimation.
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.

Drill holes are orientated perpendicular to the
perceived strike where possible.

The orientation of drilling relative to key
mineralised structures is not considered likely to
introduce sampling bias.

The orientation of sampling is considered
appropriate for the current geological
interpretation of the mineral style.

The WCS006 drill hole intersects the Webbs Consol
mineralised structure at approximately 70°
laterally.

The exact orientation of the mineralisation
intersected in holes WCS001-WCS005 is not known
at this time.
Sample
security

The measures taken to ensure sample
security.

Samples have been overseen by the Project
Manager during transport from site to the assay
laboratories.
Audits or
reviews

The results of any audits or reviews of
sampling techniques and data.

No audits or reviews have been carried out at this

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 clearlystated.

No drilling results have been reported.
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’).

No assays have been received at time of report.

The reported historic strike and dip of the Webbs
Consol mineralised lode is; Strike 190°, dip 70-75°
east.

The WCS006 drill hole intersects the Webbs Consol
mineralised structure at approximately 70° laterally
(20° off perpendicular).

The orientation of the mineralisation intersected in
holes WCS001-WCS005 is not known at this time.
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 plans and sections.

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.

The accompanying document is considered to
represent a balanced report.
Other substantive
exploration data

Other
exploration
data,
if
meaningful and material, should be
reported.

All meaningful and material data is reported.
Further work
The nature and scale of planned
further work (eg tests for lateral
extensions or depth extensions or
large-scale step-out drilling).

Diamond drilling is ongoing.
