PROPOSED ACQUISITION OF MACRO METALS LIMITED AND THE ADVANCED QUALITY PILBARA IRON ORE PROJECTS
Australian based iron ore and steel development company, Kogi Iron Limited (ASX: KFE) ( Kogi or the Company ) is pleased to advise it has signed a binding terms sheet to acquire Macro Metals Limited ( Macro Metals ), an unlisted Australian public company that beneficially owns 100% of iron ore tenements located within three producing iron ore jurisdictions in Western Australia.

Project Benefits
Pursuant to various tenement sale agreements, Macro Metals has acquired a number of exploration projects prospective for iron ore throughout three iron ore producing regions in Western Australia ( Tenements ).
This is a high quality portfolio of iron ore assets in Western Australia and are considered to be highly prospective for shallow channel iron ore deposits and three regions have drill proven mineralisation.
The West Pilbara projects are located 170-260km from Onslow Port accessible by existing roads and the projects are all located near ports and infrastructure and port access negotiations have already commenced.
The West Pilbara is an exciting region, where the Australian Premium Iron Joint Venture and Red Hill Iron Ore Joint Venture (Baosteel, Mineral Resources Limited, AMCI and POSCO) are developing 1,485Mt @ 56.8% Fe of CID Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources. Recently Mineral Resources Limited increased its stake in the project via the purchase of a minority stake in Red Hill Iron Ore Joint Venture and also confirmed its intention to build port infrastructure at Ashburton
Exploration targeting is complete and, if shareholder approval is obtained for the Placement, Kogi will have sufficient funds to implement the iron ore exploration plan and define resources of iron ore deposits.
Macro Metals bring a highly credible and experienced team to assist Kogi progress exploration and accelerate potential development of the Macro Projects.
The advance status of these projects provides Kogi Iron with a near term strategy for creating shareholder value that is complimentary with its medium-term horizon Nigerian Agbaja Iron and Steel Project.
As a result of this Proposed Acquisition Kogi will acquire a 100% interest in the following material projects:
-
(a) The West Pilbara project (E08/1997) which has a JORC resource of 11.5 million tonnes at 53.1% Fe;
-
(b) The Catho Well North Project comprises one granted tenement (E08/3086) located about 180km southeast of Onslow Port;
-
(c) the Cane River Project comprises one granted tenement (E08/3078) located about 171km east of Onslow Port;
-
(d) the Wiluna West with one granted tenement located about 40km southeast of the township Wiluna comprises one tenement E53/2031); and
-
(e) a number of other projects (together, the Macro Projects ) which further details are provided below.

Following the Proposed Acquisition, Kogi intends to expedite Macro Metals key strategy and main objectives for the Macro Projects being:
-
(a) systemically explore the Macro Projects for iron ore through geological mapping, surface sampling and drilling on the Macro Projects. Drilling targets have already been identified and plans for mobilisation of drilling contractors has commenced;
-
(b) assess the viability for, and if viable implement, a low capital expenditure iron ore production project on the West Pilbara Iron Ore Portfolio that includes West Pilbara, Catho Well North, Cane River & Five Mile project;
-
(c) focus on mineral exploration and other resource opportunities that have the potential to deliver growth; and
-
(d) continue to pursue other acquisitions that have a strategic fit for the Company.
Statement from Kogi Chairman – Craig Hart
“This transaction, on receiving shareholder approval, represents a key milestone in the Company’s journey. The Agbaja Project in Nigeria is a project of potential national significance and the progression of that project, in addition to the advancement of the feasibility studies, is further assisted by the Macro Metals acquisition in a number of ways.
The Macro Metals projects are clearly quality projects, which, in their own right provide additional assets of value to the Company and a pathway to what is expected to be incremental shareholder value in the shorter term, while we purposefully advance the medium term Nigerian project.
We are pleased that along with the acquired assets we have access to board members and shareholders of the experience and credentials that the Macro Metals team brings to the combined capability.”
Statement from Macro Metals Chairman – Ashley Pattison
“We are pleased to be entering into this transaction with a company that has a clear strategy, purpose and focus and which at the same time is committed to explore projects and assets of value to support the earliest realisation of that strategy. We believe that the Macro Metals projects will deliver that additional and significant value to Kogi shareholders.
For Macro Metals we believe that the exploitation of the planned projects is well supported by the proposed acquisition. We have been impressed with the Kogi Board’s progress over the last 12 months including their ability to raise capital when required to advance their plans.
Apart from the advancement of the Western Australian projects the major shareholders of Macro Metals have considerable African domain and operational experience that we hope will support and assist the company with its clearly stated Nigerian strategy.
On a personal note, as the nominee of Macro Metals to join the board of Kogi Iron Limited, I very much look forward to working with the Kogi Directors.”

The Proposed Acquisition is augmentative to Kogi’s Strategy:
The primary focus of the Kogi Board, since the last Annual General Meeting has been:
“to commission and complete, at the earliest possibility a program of feasibility studies to prove up the opportunity that the Kogi Agbaja Project represents.”
In addition to the primary focus, the company has previously advised that:
“At a corporate level, the Company recognises the value of exploring opportunities in addition to the feasibility studies program. To that end, the Company has been exploring a number of potential strategic partnerships and other opportunities that may have the potential to create shareholder value and diversify risk.” (June Quarterly Report dated 29 July 2021).
The Company is pleased to advise shareholders that an opportunity of significant value has been presented to the Company to acquire the business of Macro Metals and its Pilbara iron ore projects.
The Board recommends that the Proposed Acquisition be approved by shareholders at an upcoming General Meeting that is expected to be held in November 2021, specifically approving the issue of shares to the Sellers (described below), issue of shares pursuant to the Placement (described below) and the appointment of Ashley Pattison to the Board.
Kogi’s primary asset remains the Agbaja iron and steel project located in Kogi State, Nigeria ( Agbaja Project ). A recent operating cost review produced very favourable results (refer ASX:KFE Announcement 2 September2021) giving Kogi the confidence to proceed with bulk scale refining and smelting test work as the next step in our ongoing Feasibility Studies.
The medium to long-term nature of realising an investment return on the Agbaja Project would be well complemented by a nearer term opportunity to realise value for shareholders through the rapid exploration, resource definition and potential small scale production opportunities that the assets of Macro Metals now offers.

Broad spaced drilling of the CID channel has defined a substantial accumulation of CID mineralisation warranting infill and extensional drilling. The eastern extent of the tenure has only undergone limited scout drilling and remains as a high priority drill target. It is proposed that infill and extensional drilling is conducted across the main body of CID mineralisation and further scout drilling is completed across to the eastern extent of the CID to determine the scale and grade potential.
West Pilbara Project
The West Pilbara Project is located 120km west-north-west of Paraburdoo, proximal to the sealed Nanutarra Road and is comprised of exploration licence 08/1997. Onslow Port is approximately 260km via sealed roads from the West Pilbara Project.
The West Pilbara Project area is dominated by Wyloo Group of the Ashburton Basin. Palaeodrainage formed coarse clastic and Robe pisolite deposits that, due to topographic inversion, now meander across the undulating Wyloo Group plain as a series of disconnected mesas.

Figure 3: Long section through the West Pilbara mesa, showing resource block model grade distribution
In 2010 Midas Resources Ltd completed an RC drilling program on top of the main mesa. The program involved drilling 40 vertical RC holes (WPRC 001-040) for 2010m on a nominal 50m East by 100m North grid. Holes were drilled to between 42 m and 60 m depth, designed to delineate CID mineralisation for resource estimation (Figure 3, Figure 4).

Kogi Iron Limited: ASX Announcement
==> picture [81 x 20] intentionally omitted <==
An Indicated Mineral Resource has been estimated for the West Pilbara Project and was first announced to the ASX by Midas Resources Limited in 2010. The Mineral Resource was updated to conform with the 2012 JORC Guidelines by CSA Global for Hammer Metals Limited in 2014 (Table 5).
Table 5 : Mineral Resource Estimate in accordance with JORC 2012 Guidelines for the West Pilbara Project.
| Category | Tonnes | Fe | P | SiO2 | Al2O3 | LOI |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Indicated | 11,500,000 | 53.1 | 0.042 | 7.75 | 5.57 | 9.86 |
The following headings are provided for compliance with ASX listing rule 5.8.1:
Geology and Geological Interpretation
The West Pilbara deposit is a Channel Iron Deposit, similar to others such as Rio Tinto Iron Ore’s Yandicoogina deposit. These deposits are formed as fluvial accumulations, and now remain as mesas, remnants of a dissected former plain.
Sampling and Sub Sampling Techniques
RC drill cuttings were collected at 1m intervals through a cone splitter on the cyclone. A 3kg sample was collected for each metre in a calico bag for assay.
Drilling Techniques
The drilling was by vertical Reverse Circulation drilling up to 60m depth at 100m x 50m spacing.
Classification Criteria
Based on the drill and sample spacing, interpreted geometry of the deposit and the variability in the down-hole geology encountered, CSA consider that the deposit meets the criteria for reporting as an Indicated Mineral Resource as per the JORC Code (2004 edition).
-
The Mineral Resource is estimated at a reasonable level of confidence in that:
-
The geological interpretation is well supported by drill logging data, mapping and assays.
-
The drill pattern spacing is adequate to describe the relatively simple mineralized shape with confidence. The statistics and spatial statistics on assays support the interpretation.
-
Topography closes the shapes in projected extent. Topographic detail of the slopes however requires improved detail, as only the top of the mesa and drill hole collars are surveyed.
-
Density is based on local surface sampling at 2.65t/m3. Confidence in the density would be improved with drill core density samples.
13
Kogi Iron Limited: ASX Announcement
==> picture [81 x 20] intentionally omitted <==
Sample Analysis Methods
Sample analysis was by X-Ray Fluorescence and Loss on Ignition (LOI) at ALS Laboratory Perth.
Estimation Methodology
Grades were estimated by Ordinary Kriging with no top-cut into parent cells of 25mx25x5m.
Cut Off Grade
The Mineral Resource is reported at a 50% Cutoff grade.
Mining and Metallurgical Methods and Other Modifying Factors
Mining will likely be by open pit methods, with product transported to one of several nearby ports such as Onslow 260km away. Further work is required in the areas of metallurgy, mining lease application and environmental studies.

Figure 4: CID Mineralisation from West Pilbara Project
The West Pilbara Project has an Indicated Mineral Resource across a single mesa. Portions of two additional mesas also occur within the West Pilbara Project area and have not been explored. Initial sampling and mapping is proposed prior to scout drill testing.

Evaluations to date have focussed on the global resource potential of the CID mineralisation. Analysis completed by CSA as part of their mineral resource estimation has concluded that a higher-grade proponent of mineralisation exists within the top 10-20m of the resource. The economics of a higher-grade selective mining scenario warrant further evaluation.
Cane River Project
Cane River is located 141km by existing roads to the Port of Onslow and is comprised of exploration licence 08/3078. Similar to that of Catho Well North, a meandering dissected CID crops out across the Tenure.
From 2011 to 2016 FMG conducted exploration across the eastern extent of the tenure. Drilling was conducted in 2014, where RC holes were conducted to target outcropping and buried Channel Iron Deposits. CID was intersected in the drill holes.

Figure 5: Cane River Project- CID Mineralisation and Drilling
The area was explored by Rio Tinto exploration in the late 1990’s. Their project, Kay’s Well, was explored for the potential of the Tertiary Robe Pisolite palaeo-channel to host uranium. Rock chip and soil samples were taken and submitted to AMDEL Laboratories in Perth for assays. Iron was assayed for using Inductively Coupled Plasma and Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICPOES) finish. These weren’t found to be prospective for Uranium but they were for Iron.

Reconnaissance sampling has confirmed the presence of CID mineralisation at surface, scout drilling is required to determine the extent and grade of mineralisation within the multiple dissected units of CID’s evident from mapping. To date only the eastern most CID has undergone broad spaced RC drilling.
Five Mile Project
The Five Mile Project is comprised of exploration licence application 08/3365 located 2.5km north-east of the Cane River Project. Preliminary satellite imagery interpretation indicates the presence of prospective CID. Ground reconnaissance and sampling is required to be conducted to determine the presence of CID mineralisation at surface.
Mt Pyrton Project
The Mt Pyrton Project is located around 145Km south-east from Karratha, 80Km north of Tom Price, and 135Km north of Paraburdoo and is comprised of exploration licence application 47/4236.
CRA Exploration conducted drilling on the current tenement in 1991. The drilling was to target inferred paleochannels. RC hammers were used for the programme and sampled at 2m intervals. Samples were sent to SGS Australia in Perth for standard iron ore analysis for: Fe, SiO2, P, Al2O3, LOI, MnO, TiO2, CaO, MgO and S. Significant results were found on the current project area.

Figure 7: Drill Collar Locations- Distal to the range front confirmed presence of mineralisation at depth
Hamersley Iron Pty Ltd conducted rock chip sampling on the current project area from 1994. A total of 12 rock chip samples were taken, however, only one of these is located on the current project area. The main target of the sampling was to identify high grade canga which may be associated with a larger detrital accumulation under cover. Significant result was returned from the one rock chip sample on the tenure.

The Mt Pyrton Project abuts Rio Tinto’s Caliwingina CID deposit to the west. In 2010 Rio Tinto updated the Caliwingina Inferred Mineral Resource to 1,380Mt @ 56.8% Fe of CID mineralisation and 160Mt @ 61.1Mt of DID mineralisation (refer ASX announcement 26/11/2010). It is postulated that the headwaters of this CID system encroach onto the Mt Pyrton project (Figure 8).
A geological mapping and rock chip sampling program is proposed to be completed in order to define the extent, potential thickness and grade of canga mineralisation within the tenure.

West Pilbara Project 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 (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as downhole 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 (e.g. ‘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 (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
• RC drill cuttings were collected at 1m intervals through a cone splitter on the cyclone. A 3kg sample was collected for each metre in a calico bag for assay. The remaining drill spoil was dumped in individual 1m piles for inspection. • The effectiveness of drilling was regularly checked by analysing drill spoil for iron and impurities in the field using a Niton portable XRF unit. • Sample grain size and composition was monitored to assess whether any fractionation and biased sample loss was occurring down-hole during RC drilling. |
| Drilling techniques |
• Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc.) and details (e.g. 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.). |
• 40 RC holes using a face sampling bit. • Maximum depth range 42m to 60m. • All drillholes were vertical. |

Catho Well North & Cane River Project JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1 Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)
| Criteria | Commentary |
|---|---|
| Sampling techniques |
• Fortescue Metals Group Limited (FMG) completed drilling targeting CID mesas and buried mesas within their Red Hill Project, which is situated within the eastern extent of the current Cane River Project. 17 RC drill holes for a total of 252m were completed. The Catho Well North Project has been subject of two phases of drilling. FMG completed 24 RC holes for a total of 510m of drilling during 2016. • Each RC sample was crushed to 3.35mm and sub sampled with a 150g sub sample utilised for standard XRF analysis. Field duplicates and certified reference material (standards) samples were included in each head assay sample submission. • Exploration results are based on 1m samples from RC drilling with an average sample size of 3-5kg collected and sent to the Bureau Veritas (formerly Ultra Trace) laboratory for analysis. |
| Drilling techniques | • RC drilling was completed using a Schramm T685W drill rig for a nominal hole diameter of 140mm (5.5In) using a standard face sampling hammer bit. |
| Drill sample recovery |
• Sample quality and recovery of RC drilling was monitored during drilling to ensure that sample weights were representative of the intervals and to minimise sample quantity variations. A visual assessment of the RC sample quality was recorded for each 1m interval. • RC drilling was carried out with the sue of boosted high pressure air to maximise sample quality and quantity. • Rig duplicates were used to assess any sample bias which may result from rig sampling methods. Results of the duplicate analysis show some variation in elemental abundance between primary and duplicate samples, but the variability is random and no bias has been recognised. |
| Logging | • Trained geologists with experience in iron ore mineralisation were utilised to perform the geological logging of RC chip samples. • Logging is both quantitative and qualitative with measurements of mineral and lithological abundances, as well as recording physical properties of grain size and shape, recovery, moisture levels and some general properties derived from rig performance (hard slow drilling, easy drilling, difficult sampling due to clay etc) • Geological logs are recorded for each 1m sample interval. All intervals were geologically logged |
| Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation |
• Not applicable, no core drilling completed • Two 3-5kg RC drill samples are collected via a rig mounted cone splitter, equivalent to approximately 6-7% of the total sample for each 1m interval • At the laboratory, the samples are sorted, dried and weighed. The samples are crushed to 3.35mm and a 150g split is taken using a riffle splitter for standard XRF analysis. • Samples were generally collected from the rig as dry samples, with minimal impact from ground water or drilling fluids. • Field duplicates were collected at the drill rig at a rate of approximately 1 field duplicate for every 20m, using the same techniques as the original samples. Results for the field duplicates shows acceptable precision for the main elements with no biases evident. • No analysis of sample size has been conducted with respect to particle size, however given the mineralisation style and grades, the sample sizes are considered appropriate. |
| Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
• All RC samples were assayed at either Ultra Trace or Bureau Veritas (with Ultra Trace completing the actual XRF analysis). Both laboratories are NATA accredited for ISO17025. Assaying is by fused bead XRF with a standard suite of iron ore elements reported. Sample assays after 2012 included an extended suite of elements. Loss on Ignition (LOI) was determined by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and includes total LOI and splits. |

| The following elements were assayed: Fe, SiO2, Al2O3, P, Mn/MnO, MgO, CaO, TiO2, Na2O, S, K2O, As, Ba, Cl, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Sn, Sr, V, Zn, Zr, FeO and three LOI’s at 371, 650 and 1,000oC plus total LOI. • No geophysical tools were utilised. • A laboratory standard or FMG coarse reference standard is included for each sample batch (approximately 1 per 100 samples). Each laboratory carried out internal checks and sample assays, including the use of standards. Results for these standards and duplicates are statistically validated by both the laboratory and FMG as part of the QAQC procedures. |
|
| Verification of sampling and assaying |
• Significant intersections have not been independently verified. Drill logging is validated by site geologists against assay data and geophysical signals to verify intersections and interpretations. Senior geologists review the intersections and drilling in cross section and 3D to verify targets and drilling effectiveness • No twinned holes were completed • Data is logged into Toughbooks during drilling then directly loaded into AcQuire database software to avoid transcription errors. • No adjustments to data have been made. |
| Location of data points |
• A contract survey (Down Under Survey) were commissioned to pick up all drill collars to DGPS accuracy of ±3cm Easting and Northing, and ±5cm in elevation • Coordinates are in Map Grid Australia format (MGA94) and heights are based on the Australian Height Datum (GDA94). The Projects are situated within UTM Zone 50. • DGPS vertical accuracy is ±5cm in elevation, considered to be industry best practice. |
| Data spacing and distribution |
• Drill hole spacing varies from 800x200m at Catho Well North to 1.6km x 200m at Cane River • The level of drill spacing is insufficient for this style of mineralisation to define a mineral resource estimate • No sample compositing has been applied |
| Orientation of data in relation to geological structure |
• The Channel Iron Deposit (CID) is flat, forming a resistive mesa. The vertical drill orientation is perpendicular to the mineralisation and therefore achieves unbiased sampling. • The orientation of the deposit is not structurally modified to any significant degree. |
| Sample security | • Sampling and sample security was conducted in accordance with FMG standard operating procedures. Samples are delivered from site to Linfox Distribution Centre for dispatch to the assay laboratory, and samples are tracked during this process. Sample tracking is based on sample ID and this is monitored from drill site to laboratory via the AcQuire Database. Upon receipt of a sample dispatch at the laboratory, a sample quality check and inventory check are carried out and any missing or damaged samples is communicated, and this is then investigated and reconciled prior to sample processing. |
| Audits or reviews | • No independent audits were undertaken. |

| Logging | • All RC drill holes were geologically logged for the total length of the hole. Logging included recording lithology, mineralogy, alteration, veining, structure, mineralisation and weathering. Drill logs were digitised from public open file reports and stored in a validated access database. The access database was further validated through importation into micromine. The logging is appropriate and sufficiently detailed to support utilisation in a mineral resource estimation • Logging of the RC drilling is qualitative and quantitative in nature. • 100% of the holes were logged inclusive of significant intercepts. |
| Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation |
• Not applicable, no core drilling completed • Samples were collected using a cyclone splitter on 1m intervals. • Sample preparation was completed in accordance with SGS and Ultra Trace Laboratories standard operating procedures • Standard preparation procedure inclusive of internal laboratory, internal crushing and pulverising QC tests were applied by SGS and Ultra Trace Laboratories. • Field duplicate samples were taken by GWR Group Ltd • Sample sizes are considered appropriate to the mineralisation style and grain size of the material. |
| Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
• Fused bead, XRF with gravimetric determination is considered industry standard. The methods are considered to be total digestion for the elements being analysed. • No geophysical tools were utilised. • A combination of standards and duplicates were utilised by GWR Group Ltd in addition to the laboratory internal standards, blanks and duplicates. |
| Verification of sampling and assaying |
• Assay results were compared to geological logging from exploration reports in order to validate the geological integrity of the reported intercepts. • No twinned holes were completed • Exploration reports were reviewed and where required data was digitised. The data was validated and imported into an access database. Further validation was completed through the importing and validation in micromine. • No adjustments to data have been made. |
| Location of data points |
• DGP surveying was undertaken to locate drill collars. A combination of downhole wireline surveys and collar compass surveys were utilised. • Coordinates are in Map Grid Australia format (MGA94) and heights are based on the Australian Height Datum (GDA94). The Projects are situated within UTM Zone 50. • DGPS vertical accuracy is ±5cm in elevation, considered to be industry best practice. |
| Data spacing and distribution |
• The drilling was completed on an irregular grid as part of the drilling undertaken was targeting gold mineralisation. • The level of drill spacing is insufficient for this style of mineralisation to define a mineral resource estimate • No sample compositing has been applied |
| Orientation of data in relation to geological structure |
• The drilling completed is orientated in general to be perpendicular to the trend of mineralisation based on mapping and interpreted geological trends. • The drilling intercepts reported are downhole. Based on the orientation of the drilling relative to the mineralised units, it is interpreted that the intervals intersected approximate a true width of the mineralisation. |

| • Handheld GPS was utilised to determine elevation. Survey control is considered adequate for early stage reconnaissance exploration. |
|
| Data spacing and distribution |
• The drilling was completed on an irregular grid due to topographical constraints. • The level of drill spacing is insufficient for this style of mineralisation to define a mineral resource estimate • No sample compositing has been applied |
| Orientation of data in relation to geological structure |
• The drilling completed does not reflect the true width of interpreted mineralisation due to the topographic constraints and geometry of mineralisation precluding the ability to drill perpendicular to the mineralisation. • The drilling intercepts reported are downhole. The drilling completed is oblique to the mineralisation and further work is required to determine the true width of mineralisation. |
| Sample security | • Samples were bagged into polyweave bags then transported via the Horsehoe Range Camp by the camp manager to Meekatharrra and then via Toll Ipec to ALS Perth. Batches of samples were submitted daily at Horsehoe Range and bulker bags delivered to Toll Ipec Meekatharra on approximately a weekly basis. |

| Geology | • The Mt Padbury Project is located within the Padbury Basin, comprised of Palaeoproterzoic sedimentary and mafic volcanic lithologies deposited in a foreland basin setting. Lithologies have been deformed in a fold and thrust belt during the Capricorn Orogeny arising from the collision of the Archean Pilbara and Yilgarn Cratons. Four major compressional and deformational events which have resulted in complex folding, faulting and shearing of the basin sediments and volcanic rocks. The Padbury Group of lithologies comprises of the following four stratigraphic units, Labouchere and Wilthorpe, Robinson Range and Millidie Creek Formations. Locally these formations unconformably overlie the Horsehoe Formation of the Bryah Group, but in places are in faulted contact with the underlying Bryah Group or Archaean gneiss of the Narryer Terrane. Mapping completed by the Geological Survey of Western Australia (“GSWA”) has delineated several iron-rich regolith units within the Peak Hill region. Units include remnants of the extensive lateritic cover developed over the region in humid sub- tropical conditions during the Cainozoic. Quaternary iron rich colluvium and alluvium units have also been mapped. |
