-
Planning underway for Heritage Clearances, Re-establishment of Access and Logistical Support
-
Appointment of Brian Thomas as Technical Director
-
Grace Gold Project located 25km to the southeast of Newcrest’s world class Telfer Mine and 40km to the southwest of the Havieron gold deposit in the Paterson province of WA.
-
Shallow inferred gold resource previously defined over portion of known mineralised Grace-Bemm shear zone.
Paterson Resources Limited (“Paterson” or “the Company”) (ASX:PSL) is pleased to announce the planning for this year’s field season at the 100% owned Grace Gold Copper Project in the immediate vicinity of the open ended gold mineralisation at the Grace deposit. The Grace tenements which includes multiple gold prospects is located 25km southeast of Newcrest’s 32Moz Telfer gold-copper mine in the highly prospective Paterson Province (Figure 1).
Paterson has commenced applications for field activities to commence on the Grace gold copper project with the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS) for Proposals of Work (PoW’s). This will enable field crews to carry out the planned geophysical surveys and preparatory work for a drilling programme planned for next quarter. As part of the process the Company will coordinate with the representatives of the Martu People Traditional Owners, the Western Desert Lands Aboriginal Corporation, and the requisite Heritage Clearances with assistance from contract field personnel.
Work has also commenced on the design of an infill drilling programme to increase the confidence levels of the existing resource estimate but also to expand the drill coverage of the mineralised system contained within the Grace Bemms shear zone to increase data points contained within the current exploration target.

Grace Telfer Project Summary
The Company’s focus is to systematically explore the Telfer District projects which includes the advanced Grace asset and the considerable regional greenfields tenement applications covering 367 km².
On review of existing drill hole data it is evident that a series of shallow dipping en-echelon stacked vein sets are related to gold mineralisation and have not yet been adequately tested at Grace. There is a strong geological case that supports further gold mineralisation to be found in additional stacked vein sets along strike and at depth. Furthermore, the vertical stockwork hydrothermal breccias present an exciting new type of gold target at Grace which have potential to increase the resource tonnage potential of the Grace prospect.
An Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 1.59mt @ 1.35g/t Au (PSL ASX Announcement 22 May 2020 – Entitlement Issue Prospectus *) was calculated from the historical drilling on a shallow portion of the mineralised zone covering 1,140m strike length from within a much larger total strike length of known gold mineralised zone extending over 4,130m along the Grace-Bemms shear zone. Additional exploration and infill drilling on the full 4,130m strike along the Grace-Bemms shear zone has the potential to expand and increase the confidence level of the known Resource.
(* - The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the previous announcement. All material assumptions and technical parameters pertaining to the resource estimate continue to apply and have not materially changed)
