Corporate Description
Mindax's Mt Forrest Iron Project progressing through development with a view to moving toward mining phase.
The company is carefully putting in place necessary approvals and aligning infrastructure partners including and port.
Coupled with its significant iron assets, Mindax is also the greenfields discoverer of a new uranium province near Mukinbudin, Western Australia.
Through technically advanced exploration and an eye for detail, Mindax has successfully built a significant portfolio of minerals projects in Western Australia’s Yilgarn Craton of about 40 tenements covering over 4,600 square kilometres.
Mindax aims to develop strategic resources through innovative exploration. Higher yield projects will be moved to production via strategic partnerships.
Key Projects
Mt Forrest DSO Iron, Magnetite Yilgarn-Avon JV Sedimentary Uranium Mortlock JV Copper-Gold Address
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Mt Forrest magnetite resource now stands at 1.43 billion tonnes @ 31.5% Fe (JORC Inferred + Indicated) placing it as the largest JORC compliant resource in the Yilgarn Iron Province and within the top 5 Australian magnetite resources.
-
A revised DSO resource up-grade to be completed in May will include newly identified magnetite-martite mineralisation.
-
Ongoing drilling at Mukinbudin for uranium has significantly increased the footprints of anomalous palaeochannel mineralisation at both Jindarra and Yandegin prospects.

EXPLORATION
MT FORREST PROJECT (Iron, Gold 100%)
This quarter saw an additional 50 RC holes for 10,122 m (MFC 259 – 270, 301 – 315, and 326 – 339) and 8 diamond holes for 1,153 m (MFD 8 and 10 – 16). Iron assay results for the 50 RC holes are included in Tables 1 and 2. These drill holes are raw down hole results and not true width intercepts. No diamond core was assayed as it is being retained for metallurgical test work. The position of prospects and drill holes is presented in Figures 2 to 4.
The drilling strategy at Mt Forrest focused on verifying the primary magnetite mineralization at depth, improving geological understanding, collecting extensive Davis Tube recovery information and upgrading the magnetite JORC Inferred resource:
-
Drill intercepts were achieved to RL 150m, approximately 400m below surface and provide a high level of confidence of the depth persistence of mineralisation.
-
A significant alteration event has been identified that has the effect of upgrading the primary magnetite content by development of coarse secondary magnetite.
-
The total number of DTR determinations is 573.
-
A Resource Update was released to the market on 14 April 2011 declaring 1.43 billion tonnes of primary beneficiable magnetite @ 31.5% Fe (JORC Inferred + Indicated), a 41% increase on the October 2010 position. It includes 82.9 million tonnes @ 32.4% Fe (JORC Indicated Category).

Activities for quarter ending 31 March 2011
Drilling at Mt Forrest to date totals 318 holes completed for an aggregate 30,021.8 m since commencement in December 2009, a period of fifteen months. Drill hole information received since the April magnetite resource update are included here in Tables 1 and 2.
Preliminary Davis Tube Recovery metallurgical testing (DTR) has been undertaken at 80% passing 40 µm (P8040) and at 80% passing 150 µm (P80-150). Results for samples from Emu indicate generally good mass recoveries and recovered iron grades as well as low silica levels, but material types vary widely. Table 3 shows the current DTR results above a 20% DTR cut-off and Table 4 presents an overview by prospect.
Magnetite resources at Echidna, Euro, Dingo, Emu North and Emu South prospects are estimated by Snowden’s at 753.4 million tonnes of a head Fe grade at 32.5% above a 25% Fe cut-off (JORC Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource classification). The Mineral Resource extends over an aggregate strike length of 4 kilometres to a maximum depth of 400 m below surface.
The residual Mineral Resource (October 2010 CSA) for the magnetite feed at Echidna, Euro, Dingo, Bungarra, Dunnart, Bat, Emu North and Emu South prospects is estimated at 671.7 million tonnes of a head Fe grade at 30.5% no Fe% cut-off (JORC Inferred Mineral Resource classification). The Mineral Resource extends over an aggregate strike length of 16.6 kilometres to a maximum depth of 300 m below surface.
Geological assessment of this work has established two key points:
-
The primary mineralization includes a significant component of altered iron formation. This material is characterized by epidote development and coarse secondary magnetite and results in a critical upgrading of primary iron content.
-
There remains potential for further DSO material. Oxidation of primary materials within the upper 50 metres above the base of complete oxidation results in a magnetite-martite mineralization. This material has been leached and compacted by the weathering process resulting in enhanced Fe grades.
The oxide potential of the area is presently being reassessed, taking account of this material and a resource upgrade for DSO material is anticipated shortly.
The Mt Forrest Scoping Study is continuing to absorb the new resource position and is close to completion. Applications have been made for miscellaneous licences for water exploration. Miscellaneous licence applications for a corridor to Menzies are presently awaiting settlement of the normal appeals process under WA Mining law.
The Directors consider the work at Mt Forrest to be very encouraging and that subject to the satisfactory completion of the Scoping Study, the project will progress to pre-feasibility stage.

Figure 5: YAJV Project Locations
Aircore drilling undertaken by Mindax in the period January to March 2011 has continued to highlight the prospectivity of the company’s YAJV projects to host significant uranium mineralisation (Figure 5). This information was detailed in a release to the ASX on 29 April 2011.
A further 177 holes were completed for a total of 14,684m. Drilling was undertaken at the Yandegin and Jindarra Prospects and the scout drilling program was continued at the Mukinbudin and Quairading Projects (Table 4).

Table 4: Break Down of 2011 Drilling by Prospect
Assay results have been received for 4 metre composite samples of holes drilled within the Mukinbudin Project but are currently outstanding for the Quairading Project. Results to date at Mukinbudin have continued to identify significant uranium mineralisation throughout the Project.
Further drilling at the Yandegin Prospect (best interval 0.63% U3O8 (5368 ppm U - ASX Release 3/11/2010) has identified the zone of mineralisation now extending along the palaeochannel for approximately 3.2km. Best results to date include 8m @ 400ppm and 24m @ 373ppm. It is expected that the 1m resampling will resolve these intervals as either broad anomalous zones or interbedded high grade bands. The location of mineralised drill holes at the Yandegin Prospect is shown in Figure 6.
Wide spaced drilling completed 3km up palaeochannel of the Jindarra discovery(best interval 0.2% U3O8 (1690ppm U) – ASX Release 8/10/2009) has indicated further anomalous uranium with intersections including 8m @ 202ppm U (Figure 7). This now indicates a palaeochannel foot print of 5 kilometres .
A large program of ground gravity surveying started in October 2010 was completed in February. This survey resulted in 7,295 new gravity stations being collected. Data was collected from the Mukinbudin, Quairading and Kellerberrin Projects. This new data has been combined with data from previous smaller surveys conducted by Mindax during 2008, 2009 & early 2010. The final combined dataset consists of over 12,000 gravity stations. The database is currently being interpreted by our consultant geophysicists. To date the gravity data has been used to help interpret the morphology of the palaeochannel and has allowed better targeting of the aircore drilling.
Two new exploration licenses have been applied for. E77/1918 is located north of Jindarra. E70/4062 was applied for to cover elevated radiation readings in drill holes close to the western boundary of E70/2986.

YILGARN AVON - SIPA JOINT VENTURE - MORTLOCK PROJECT (Copper, Gold, Mindax as Operator)
A program of RC drilling was conducted at the Centre Forest East prospect. Drilling was designed to test ground EM targets adjacent to the Centre Forest mineralisation discovered by SIPA and spatially related to a blanket of regolith copper geochemical anomalism. In total three holes were drilled for 696m. Further ground EM was also undertaken.
Hole CFC0011 targeted EM target VC4B and was drilled to 202m. Hole CFC0012 targeted EM target VC4A and went to 268m. Hole CFC0013 targeted EM target VC5 and went to 226m.
Geology intersected in all of the holes was 60-70m of regolith material followed by fresh rock being dominated by mafic granulite with a small amount of felsic gneiss. Relatively little sulphide (dominantly pyrite) was intersected and the targets are unresolved.
Hole CFC0011 : Targeted EM anomaly VC4B and was planned for 200m. It went to 202m EOH. Lithology consisted of 60-70m of regolith comprising upper and lower saprolite and sap rock before passing into felsic gneiss and then into a mafic granulite. Very little sulphide was observed in this hole however a small amount of graphite was encountered close to the end of the hole.

Hole CFC0012 : Targeted EM anomaly VC4A and was planned for 260m. It went to 268m EOH. Lithology again was 60-70m of regolith before going into mafic granulite. There was a few instances of small aggregates of sulphides, most likely pyrite but in some cases possibly chalcopyrite. This mineralisation was most predominant from 200-210m which could correspond with the modelled EM conductor.
Hole CFC0013 : Targeted EM anomaly VC5 and was planned for 300m. The hole went to 226m EOH. The lithology of this hole was 25m of transported sands and clays before going into laterite to approximately 60m. The rest of the hole was dominantly granulite with occasional more felsic intersections. The best occurrence of sulfides was seen between 140-152m, with pyrite and possibly chalcopyrite evident in larger aggregates. This hole stopped just short of the target.
Highest gold values were 542 ppb in regolith at 34-37m in hole CFC0013 and 438 ppb at 87-88m in hole CFC0012 with a corresponding high copper value of 722 ppm . The highest copper value was 2172 ppm at 95-97m in hole CFC0012. These last copper intervals have been logged with some sulfides (pyrite).
These highest copper/gold values are comparable to the results seen in the previous aircore drilling program.
Sampling and assaying of 1 metre resamples is underway.
| Hole ID | Easting MGA94 | Northing MGA94 | Dip | Azimuth | Total Depth(m) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CFC0011 | 484419 | 6514399 | 58 | 270 | 202 |
| CFC0012 | 484412 | 6514903 | 60 | 270 | 268 |

Table 5: Drill Collar and survey table
A fixed loop ground electromagnetic survey was conducted over four areas of interest.
Airborne EM targets VC-6, VC-10, VC-14 & VC31 were tested with a ground based EM survey. Interpretation and modelling of this data by Mindax’s consultant geophysicists suggest that there are conductive responses representing drill targets at VC-6, VC-10, & VC31 but not at VC-14.
These modelled conductors are currently being integrated with our geological model to determine a drilling priority.
