EXPLORATION UPDATE – SILVER SWAN NORTH

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • High grade bedrock gold mineralisation within a broader zone of gold and arsenic anomalism was intersected in RC hole 21SSC009 close to Tyrell’s gold prospect:

  • 3m @ 4.27 g/t Au from 106m including 1m @ 11.6 g/t Au from 106m

  • 2m @ 0.42 g/t Au from 110m

  • 2m @ 0.79 g/t Au from 113 including 1m @ 1.24 g/t Au from 113m

  • Diamond drilling: 21SSC005 extended from 165m with diamond drilling to test Omrah EM anomaly:

  • 1[st] Conductor intersected at 377.2m downhole and identified to be a black shale unit associated with massive pyrrhotite mineralisation

  • 2[nd] Conductor intersected at 480m downhole identified as large shear zone

  • Hole cased for follow-up down-hole EM survey

  • RC holes 21SSC011 – 21SSC014 drilled at Wise prospect all intersected ultramafic units and holes cased for down-hole EM surveys

  • Report submitted to DMIRS for part-payment of ~$100,000 of EIS co-funded drilling grant

NEXT STEPS:

  • Down-hole EM surveying of diamond hole and RC holes

  • Geochemical review of Black Swan South and greater Silver Swan North Project

  • Ground EM survey at Black Swan South

  • Drilling of updated geochemical and geophysical targets

“The high-grade bedrock gold intersection within a broad zone of anomalism in 21SSC009 is very encouraging and reinforces the prospectivity of the gold trend recently identified by Aircore drilling across the Tyrells and Hodges Gold prospects”

  • Mr Shane Sadleir, Moho Managing Director

Moho Resources Ltd (ASX:MOH) ( Moho or Company ) is pleased to provide an exploration update on the Reverse Circulation and diamond drilling programs carried out at the Omrah and Wise Nickel prospects in late 2021 /early 2022 within the Silver Swan North project (Figure 1).

RC DRILLING

A total of 14 holes were completed totalling 3,060 metres of drilling (Table 1, Figure 2).

Gold Mineralisation:

High grade bedrock gold mineralisation was intersected in RC hole 21SSC009 close to Tyrell’s gold prospect:

  • 3m @ 4.27 g/t Au from 106m including 1m @ 11.6 g/t Au from 106m

  • 2m @ 0.42 g/t Au from 110m

  • 2m @ 0.79 g/t Au from 113 including 1m @ 1.24 g/t Au from 113m

  • Mineralisation located within broader 29m-wide anomalous envelope averaging 0.5g/t Au

RC Drillhole 21SSC009 intersected a broad envelope of gold mineralisation from 106m downhole (Table 2). The gold mineralisation is contained in a felsic volcanic unit associated with minor pyrite mineralisation and quartz veining. Interestingly it can be noted the mineralised interval shows elevated arsenic concentrations and iron oxidation of volcanic units which bear resemblance to mineralised structures intersected at Moho’s East Sampson Dam gold deposit.

Nickel Targets:

Lithogeochemistry confirmed that drillholes 21SSC001 – 008 failed to intersect any ultramafic lithologies (Figure 3) or any visible sulphide mineralisation > 1%. pXRF analysis indicated that no anomalous nickel greater than 1,000ppm Ni was intersected.

The RC drilling was unable to penetrate to a depth in which the EM conductor could be intercepted, requiring follow-up diamond drill testing.

21SSC011 – 21SSC014 were drilled into the “Wise” prospect, with all 4 drillholes intersecting ultramafic units. Preliminary XRF data shows no anomalous nickel was intersected. No visible sulphides (>1%) were evident in the logging (Figure 4).

DIAMOND DRILLING

Only 1 hole was drilled for a total of 319.4m (484.5m Total depth), extended from bottom of hole of 21SSC005 (Table 2, Figure 5). The drill hole was designed to test the conductive EM plate at the Omrah target.

Figure 6: Location of 21SSC005 Diamond tail

==> picture [596 x 68] intentionally omitted <==

The Diamond hole was designed to intersect the EM conductor at +-405m downhole. The conductor was intersected at 377.2m and identified to be a black shale unit associated with massive pyrrhotite mineralisation (Figure 6). Remodelling of the EM data indicated an additional conductor sitting at +-480m downhole and the hole was extended to intersect it. The second conductor was logged to be a shear zone, indicated by extremely broken up core, loss of water reported by the driller and oxidation of drill core.

==> picture [453 x 157] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 6: Black shale with massive Pyrrhotite

No ultramafic lithologies were observed in the core of diamond drillhole 21SSC005 and no anomalous nickel has been intersected (based on pXRF data).

Although drilling has failed to intersect any nickel sulphide mineralisation it has opened up the Wise prospect for further exploration.

NEXT STEPS

  • Down-hole EM surveying od diamond hole and RC holes

  • Geochemical review of Black Swan south and greater Silver Swan North Project

  • Ground EM survey at Black Swan South

  • Drilling of updated geochemical and geophysical targets

mineralisation. Gold is related to quartz-feldspar porphyry bodies which
have intruded dilational zones within shear zones. It also can be spatially
associated with fine-grained pyroclastic and clastic rocks in the Gindalbie
area. Gold mineralisation in the area is locally associated with quartz-
carbonate stockwork veins, breccia zones, sulphide-quartz-carbonate
stringers and sheeted vein arrays. The focus for Ni sulphides is komatiite-
