ASX RELEASE

RC DRILLING TO COMMENCE AT WILES GOLD PROSPECT N.S.W

Follow-up RC drilling of exceptional soil anomalies

  • MinRex to commence drilling next week at the Wiles Gold Prospect within its Sofala Gold Project on the Lachlan Fold Belt, NSW.

  • MinRex received approval from the NSW Resources Regulator to undertake a 15 hole, 800m RC drilling program for the Wiles Gold Prospect.

  • Drilling to follow-up on exceptional soil sample and recent shallow RC drill results.

  • Surface geochemical gold assays include: 10.6g/t Au, 9.26g/t Au, 4.28g/t Au and 4.01g/t Au.

  • Recent RC drilling intersections include: [email protected]/t Au from 17m (WFRC005) and [email protected]/t Au from 6m (WFRC004).

MinRex Resources Limited (ASX: MRR) (“ MinRex ” or “ the Company ”) is pleased to announce it has received NSW Regulator approval for an RC drilling campaign at its Wiles Gold Prospect (“ Wiles Prospect ”) with in the Company’s Sofala gold project on the Lachlan Fold Belt, NSW with RC drilling to be underway next week. The previous soil and drilling results demonstrated significant gold mineralisation within the Wiles Prospect.

Wiles Prospect Drilling Campaign

MinRex will drill 15 new RC holes and extend the depth of 3 holes drilled by Wattle Resources in September 2020, totalling approx. 800m of drilling.

The purpose of the infill RC drilling program is to further define the extent of the gold mineralisation delineated from soil sampling and previous shallow RC drilling.

The Company will deploy the Strike Drilling X350 AC/RC Drill Rig via a co-operation agreement with NSW exploration company Argent Minerals Limited (ASX: ARD).

About the Wiles Prospect

The Wiles Prospect is a recently discovered orogenic gold deposit on strike of the Big Oakey Fault between Whalans Hill ( 10m @ 1.63g/t Au ) and Caledonian ( 2m @ 8.11g/t Au ). 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 10.6g/t Au, 9.26g/t Au , 4.28g/t Au and 4.01g/t Au ) . This prospectivity was confirmed by shallow RC drilling in late 2020 with results returning 9m @ 2.43g/t Au from 17m (WFRC005) and 2m @ 2.97g/t Au from 6m (WFRC004)[1] .

MinRex Ltd Chief Executive Officer Mr Kastellorizos commented:

“The strong near surface gold mineralisation results delineated from recent drilling indicates excellent potential to host several high grade/board gold mineralisation zones over the Wile Prospect. The extensive gold mineralisation at this stage consists of 5 different lodes zones running over several hundred metres in a north-south direction and are currently open along strike and depth.

The size of the untested mineralised corridor has been classified as very extensive with excellent potential to delineate further mineralisation through shallow drilling. Further work will commence on the re-interpretation of airborne magnetic/gravity data to delineate the source of the geophysical anomalies along with the true depth of the source”.
