MinRex Resources Limited (ASX: MRR) (“ MinRex ” or “the Company ”) is pleased to announce assay results for its first pass RC drilling campaign completed over the Wiles Gold Prospect, within the Company’s Sofala Project. During June 2021, 14 RC holes for 794m were completed aimed at increasing geological confidence in the distribution of the gold from a previous drilling campaign and to test the highgrade gold soil sampling results in the southern and the north-western zone.
About the Wiles Prospect Area
The Wiles Prospect area is located 30km north of the town of Bathurst and surrounding the village of Wattle Flat in eastern New South Wales, approximately 200km west Sydney. Access to the licence area is afforded by the sealed Bathurst – Sofala Road. Topography within the licence area varies from undulating cleared farmland to very rugged and steep forested hill country.

MinRex Resources Limited Chief Executive Officer Mr Kastellorizos commented:
“Our 2021 ground exploration campaign is off to a good start based on the very positive first drilling program delineating extensive stacked mineralised gold lodes previously unknown to the Company. Significant gold intercept of 13m @ 1.60 g/t gold from the surface (including 4m @ 3.40 g/t gold) highlights the shallow gold mineralisation over Wiles. Based on the nearby historic gold mines of Whalan’s Hill Surface Hill, Little Oaky Mine and the Caledonian, the Wiles Prospect fits within this highly prospective gold mineralised corridor”.
“The results from the drilling program have continued to validate a series of stacked gold bearing lodes with all remaining open in all directions. At this stage, MinRex will design a ground IP or EM survey over the Wiles Prospect to delineate further mineralised extensions along strike and width, but also to test if deeper or boarder mineralisation exists at depth”.
This is an exciting time for our shareholders as we are now delineating further gold mineralisation proximal to our Surface Hill Gold Deposit. The Sofala Project continues to deliver solid gold numbers from the mineralised corridor interpreted from our recent geophysics. We will still continue to assess and plan further exploration programs to delineate new targets for drill testing”.

Wiles Gold Prospect
The Wiles Gold Prospect is a recently discovered orogenic gold deposit on strike of the Big Oakey Fault between Whalans Hill (10m @ 1.63 g/t Au – 280m NW of Wiles) and Caledonian (2m @ 8.11 g/t Au – 880m SW from Wiles). The prospect was discovered in 2018 by joint-venture partner Wattle Resources Pty Ltd ( Wattle ). A soil sampling campaign of the previously unexplored ground was conducted by Wattle producing exceptional results (soil samples returning 10.6 g/t Au, 9.26 g/t Au, 4.28 g/t Au and 4.01 g/t Au). This prospectivity was confirmed by shallow RC drilling in late 2020.

Geology and Mineralisation
The licence area is underlain by basaltic andesite to basaltic volcaniclastic conglomerate, sandstone and siltstone, with minor basaltic lava and limestone, of the Late Ordovician Sofala Volcanics. This formation is locally intruded by bodies of high-level porphyritic pyroxene andesite. The rock sequence is strongly deformed (an overturned syncline was mapped in the southwestern sector of EL 7974), and strongly faulted. A substantial fault, the Big Oaky Fault, probably a northeast-dipping thrust fault, trends north-westerly through the area of the licence.
Numerous old workings are known in the licence area, the larger ones including the Whalan’s Hill Mine (with a recorded production of 397oz Au), the Surface Hill Mine (11,250oz Au), the Little Oaky Mine (911oz Au), the Caledonian Mine (435oz Au) and the Big Oaky Mine (production unknown). A significant body of gold mineralisation related to thrust faulting, the Spring Gully Prospect, is located a short distance to the south of EL 7974 and is the subject of ongoing exploration.
The structurally controlled gold mineralisation is hosted in quartz ± carbonate veins/multiple veins / stockworks, with minor pyrite. The sulphides occur as disseminations in the altered country rock, within veins and veinlets, and as fracture coatings. The veining is mostly accompanied by moderate to intense siderite and minor fuchsite alteration of the volcanics and volcaniclastics.

Forward Strategy
At this stage, the company will either undertake an airborne EM survey or ground IP survey to map the potential bearing sulphides/quartz lodes at depth. Depending on the results of the survey, a second reconnaissance drilling program will be designed to target any strongly mineralised zone delineated by the geophysical survey.
All geophysical target areas will undergo a brief reconnaissance to assess if any structural measurement can be taken and if outcropping mineralisation is present for further geochemical sampling. Also, numerous quartz veining and quartz blows have been identified in the southern zone over Wiles. Small surface rock chip sampling program will target these areas before drilling commences.

Appendix A
– JORC Code, 2012 Edition Table 1 report
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. |
14 RC drill holes was completed over the Wiles Prospect, totalling 794m. Sample type was drilling cuttings from RC drilling, sampled every 1 metre. Every sample weighted between 2.5 and 3 kgs in which the sample was pulverised to produce an appropriately sized sample for 50g Fire Assay analysis and mixed acid digest for Au, Ag, As, Cu, Pb and Zn. Industry standard practices were used to ensure sample representation. Nagrom Laboratories in Perth have applied QA-QC for sample preparation and appropriate instrument calibration |

|---|---|---|---|
| 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, by what method, etc). |
X350 Morooka Track mounted RC rig was employed using 4 ¾“ hammer drilled at an inclination between 45° and 60° west and east with one vertical hole completed as part of the drill program. |
|
| 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. |
All metre intervals were logged, and sample recoveries were estimated by geologist on site. All samples were dry as no water was encountered during drilling thus the representative nature of the sample remained the same. Dry RC samples have an exceptionally low potential for sample bias. |
|
| 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. Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography. The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged. |
All geological features including recovery, weathering, colour, grain size, alteration, mineralisation, lithology were logged. Logging is both qualitative and quantitative in nature depending on the geological feature logged on site. All RC holes were geological logged from the start to the end of hole. |
|
| 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. _ |
No diamond drilling was used – not applicable All RC holes were sampled and split every 1 metre using a cone splitter to produce a sample between 2.5 and 3 kgs sub-sample for submission to Nagrom Labs in Perth. |

The Wiles Prospect area lies in EL7974 within the Sofala Project in NSW. The Project area surrounds the villages of Wattle Flat and Sofala, approximately 31 km NNE of the major regional centre of Bathurst in NSW. MinRex has executed a formal Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement with Wattle Resources Pty Ltd in relation to EL7974. Under the terms of the Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement, MinRex has 3 years to earn a 51% interest in EL7974 by spending $750K and an additional 29% interest (80% total) by spending an additional $1.55 million. Standard dilution clauses apply once MinRex completes the first stage of the farm-in (should MinRex elect not to continue the farm-in) or on completion of the second stage of the farm-in, except that Wattle’s interest will be free carried once it falls to 10%. Wattle also has a 1% net smelter royalty over MinRex’s interest in minerals mined from EL7974.

| Drill hole Information | A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: oeasting and northing of the drill hole collar oelevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar odip and azimuth of the hole odown hole length and interception depth ohole length. If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case. |
The drill hole information has been inserted and tubulated within the document for the drill holes reported. |
| 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 clearly stated. |
No high-grade cuts have been applied. No usage of metal equivalent has been used |
| 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 |
All drill holes intersect the mineralisation at an angle of approx. 90 degrees. Thus, the intersections are close to true width if not 100% of true width. For example, in places where the mineralisation is horizontal the drillholes are vertical. Interval widths have been reported in Table 1 has been documented of the ASX release |

| ‘down hole length, true width not known’). | ||
| 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 plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
One map and cross section has been inserted along with the significant drill intercepts within the body of the announcement. |
| 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. |
All low and high grades have been disclosed within the release |
| Other substantive exploration data |
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances. |
Not applicable |
| Further work | The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step- out drilling). Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive. |
