New England Fold Belt – Highly Prospective but Very Under Explored
-
New England Fold Belt (FB) most significant mining period was from 1850s up to WWI
-
Estimated output at today’s prices was US$7billion or up to 20% of the entire state’s GDP for that period
-
There is just one currently operating metalliferous mines in the New England FB
-
Mining company expenditure in 2018 was US$0.2b (mainly in coal) or 2.2% of US$10.7b for entire NSW
-
Current in situ resource value is estimated to be just 2% of the entire state due a lack of exploration
-
New England FB has just 1 exploration hole for every 13 holes drilled in the Lachlan FB

Uralla Gold – Dominant position in a significant historic Goldfield
-
Located 8km W of the Uralla goldfield was one of the earlier goldfields discovered in NSW and a significant gold producer in the 1850’s. Lodes holdings cover over 300sq km’s
-
Uralla Granodiorite and other intrusives, which intrude Yarrowyck Granodiorite and Sandon Beds, are believed to be responsible for gold mineralisation in the Uralla Goldfield
-
Characteristics of an Intrusive Related Gold System (IRGS) only been recently recognised. Tintina Gold Province of Alaska and Yukon is the best known example of a IRGS with >50Moz of Au defined over the last 15 years − See https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2007/5289/SIR2007-5289-A.pdf
-
“Bonanza” Dyke, N-S Structure and Felsic dykes appear to be strong controlling features within the Uralla goldfield
-
Zonation of indicator metals Bi, As, Sb, Cu, Zn and Pb is a potential tool for vectoring towards large Type B targets
-
Examples of significant intercepts to date:
-
Martin’s Shaft
-
14.0m @ 4.83 g/t Au (incl. 3.0m @ 6.94 g/t Au) - SGRDD002[1]
-
11.0m @ 5.38 g/t Au (incl. 6.0m @ 8.30 g/t Au) - SGRDD004[1]
-
18.5m @ 2.41 g/t Au (incl. 4.0m @ 4.81 g/t Au) - SGRDD008[1]
-
8.0m @ 5.40 g/t Au - SGRDD014
-
-
Bannawerra Discovery
-
13.9m @ 1.45 g/t - ZK0701[1]
-
4.9m @ 2.75 g/t - SGRDD036[1]
-
-
Targeting 2 IRGS mineralisation styles:
-
A. Veins and felsic dykes - individual deposit target size: 100koz to 500koz
-
B. Cupola structures – target size: 500koz to 1moz

Webbs Consol Silver
-
Located 16km WSW of Emmaville, Webbs Consol was discovered in 1890 with intermittent mining up to the mid 1950’s
-
Several mine shafts worked for high grade galena and silver content only with zinc mineralisation discarded. Sampling shows potential for –
-
high grade silver and zinc mineralisation drill ready
-
Late Permian Emmaville Volcanics and undifferentiated Early Permian sediments intruded by Webbs Consol Leucogranite
-
Epithermal mineralisation occurring in ‘en échelon’ vertical pipe like bodies at intersection of main N-S shear and secondary NE-SW fractures
• Identified drill targets:
-
Down dip extension below Webbs Consol main workings and NNE along strike. Non-JORC channel samples taken within the mineralised envelope on Level 3 indicate open ended high-grade mineralisation at 60m depth (12 samples averaged 210g/t Ag, 22.6% Zn and 2.74% Pb[1] )Large IP anomaly 300m NE of main workings

2007 Induced Polarisation survey reveals a number of untested
anomalies:
Drill Target 1
• Interestingly no IP anomaly coincides directly with the high-grade Webbs
Consol ore body
• However a conductive anomaly exists approximately 100m NNE along
strike

Conductivity high = drill target
----- End of picture text -----
- Historical drilling failed to test down plunge potential of main workings – maybe due limited rig capacity?
Drill Target 2
-
A coincident chargeability and conductivity anomaly potentially indicates disseminated mineralisation and a massive mineralised core respectively
-
3 preliminary surface samples returned elevated silver values in assays (273, 37 & 21 g/t Ag)[1]
Drill Target 3
- Preliminary surface samples returning elevated silver values indicate need to extend IP survey 1000m north

Fender Copper
-
Located 30km SE of Tamworth
-
Surface exploration carried out by several companies since the 1960s comprising stream/soil, surface mapping, IP and magnetics however no drilling has occurred
-
Significant copper values in stream sampling over two large areas (Kasey 7km x 3km, Fold 4km x 2km). Coincides with distinct large magnetic ridges and adjacent to Spring Creek fault
-
Magnetic anomalies may represent large fold structures which provides tension regime for fissure infilling of remobilised copper mineralisation
-
Late Devonian-Early Carboniferous Myra and Sandon Bed, inter-fingered Permian basalt, jasper and chert
-
21 copper occurrences of VMS origin have been recorded over 30km strike length and are hosted within steeply dipping shear zones that have a close spatial relationship with jasper, chloritised metabasalt and less resistant argillaceous chert
-
Mineralisation typically Fe rich, then Cu and lesser Zn as major metals. Cu typically ranges 2% to 4.5%, although exceptionally rich ore from Fisher’s mine averaged 13.4% Cu[1]

Two large drainage anomaly targets based on regional stream/soil geochemical and magnetic surveys. Large anomaly suggest potential for sizeable occurrence

Greenfield Opportunities: Elsinore Copper − Greenfield Ops
-
Located 30km W of Guyra
-
First recorded in 1974 thesis by Marriot, J.A. 1974: The Geology, Mineralogy and Genesis of Three Sulphide Occurrences, Between Bundarra and Baldersleigh, North Western New South Wales
-
Significant surface work, including IP and soil sampling, was performed by the Sovereign Gold Company in 2016 but no follow up hard rock sampling or drilling
-
Solid IP chargeability anomaly coincides with magnetic ridge possibly reflecting sulphides
-
E-W magnetic ridge extends over 6 km strike length, bedding also strikes E-W and dips steeply south
-
Mineralisation exposed in outcrop and prospecting pits as massive and disseminated sulphides
-
Hosted by metabasalt and, in certain instances, concentrated in slumped chert blocks encased with metabasalt
-
Cu, Au, Zn and Pb soil anomalies generally align with magnetics.
-
Apparent lateral metal zonation characteristic of VMS deposits
-
Entire 6k m strike length requires mapping, sampling and trenching to determine best targets prior to initial drilling
-
Good outcrop should enable extensive chip sampling prior targeted IP survey if warranted
-
6 km strike suggest massive size potential

Greenfield Opportunities: Thor Gold & Tea Tree Gold
Thor Gold
-
Radiometric imagery shows thorium signatures potentially indicating shallowly buried or just unroofed granites and/or areas of related alteration. Intrusive related gold deposits are spatially associated with moderately reduced granites of felsic to intermediate composition.
-
Alternatively major structures such as the Plagyan fault may tap deep crustal fault systems providing a suitable environment for epizonal orogenic gold deposition
-
Source of 2km gold in drainage anomaly unexplained at Maules Creek
-
Newmont has pegged ground with similar geology
Tea Tree Gold
-
Historical goldfield with 21 historical workings. 93 rock chip samples averaged 2.42 g/t Au. Highest value 152g/t Au[1]
-
One drill hole returned 6.3 g/t Au over 2m from 35m but no follow up
-
No systematic soil sampling or ground geophysics
