Peel Mining Limited (ASX: PEX) is pleased to announce that recent drilling at the Cobar Superbasin Project has returned strong base and precious metals mineralisation from the Wirlong, Red Shaft and Sandy Creek prospects. The Cobar Superbasin Project is subject to a Memorandum of Agreement with Japan Oil, Gas, and Metals National Corporation (JOGMEC), under which JOGMEC may earn up to 50% interest by funding up to $7m of exploration. Peel remains as Operator during the earn-in period. This initial exploration programme, which is now nearing completion, encompassed ~$1,000,000 of exploration expenditure comprising drilling (808m diamond, 4,080m RC, 6,214m RAB), geophysics (hiresolution airborne magnetics/radiometrics, gravity, Induced Polarisation and downhole EM surveys) and other field activities.

Wirlong

Peel is greatly encouraged by the results received from its maiden drill programme at Wirlong, particularly given the prospect’s early-stage of investigation. In total, 6 RC drillholes were successfully completed at Wirlong - 3 drillholes (WLRC001, 003 and 004) were drilled to test chargeable IP geophysical anomalies and 3 drillholes (WLRC005, 006 and 007) were drilled to test geochemical anomalies. WLRC002 was terminated early due to excessive lift. All three drillholes targeting geochemical anomalies returned strong base metals mineralisation including:

  • 4m @ 3.04% Cu, 12 g/t Ag, 0.19% Zn from 196m in WLRC005;

  • o 2m @ 2.99% Cu, 1.08 g/t Au, 16 g/t Ag, 0.41% Zn from 322m in WLRC006; o 2m @ 2.30% Zn, 0.81% Pb, 4 g/t Ag from 139m in WLRC007.

WLRC001 (356m) was completed without encountering any explanation for the chargeable IP target, however it was noted that the drillhole steepened significantly from its planned trace, and as a result failed to properly test the chargeability anomaly.

WLRC002 (72m) was terminated early due to excessive lift.

WLRC003 (342m) was collared adjacent to WLRC002 and drilled at a steeper angle in an attempt to counter any excessive lift that might occur. Regardless, WLRC003 lifted significantly, and as a result failed to properly test the chargeable IP anomaly. Of note, several zones of anomalous base metal values occurred at downhole positions proximal to the assumed IP chargeable zones.

WLRC004 (300m) was completed without encountering any explanation for the chargeable IP target, however, similar to WLRC001, it was noted that the drillhole steepened significantly from the planned trace, and as a result failed to properly test the chargeable IP anomaly.

WLRC005 (360m) was designed to test a strong surface lead geochemical anomaly with coincident shearing and sericite alteration, and a moderate chargeable IP anomaly. WLRC005 encountered several broad zones of highly anomalous base metals mineralisation within sheared sediments and felsic volcanic rocks. Sulphide minerals of note include pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena. A strong interval of chalcopyrite-rich mineralisation was recorded at 196-200m downhole - 4m @ 3.04% Cu, 12 g/t Ag, 0.19% Zn - which occurs in a down dip position from a moderate chargeable IP anomaly. A best individual metre (196m-197m) grade of 6.22% Cu indicates the potential of the mineralised system at Wirlong.

WLRC006 (360m) was designed to test a strong surface lead-copper geochemical anomaly with coincident shearing and alteration and a deep chargeable IP anomaly. WLRC006 was collared about 130m North of WLRC005 and encountered several broad zones of highly anomalous base metals mineralisation within sheared predominantly felsic volcanic rocks. Sulphide minerals of note include pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena. A strong interval of chalcopyrite-rich mineralisation with associated moderate-strong chlorite alteration was recorded at 322-324m downhole - 2m @ 2.99% Cu, 1.06 g/t Au, 16 g/t Ag, 0.41% Zn .

WLRC007 (234m), located about 1.4km North of WLRC006 and 2.2km North of the historic Wirlong workings, was designed to test beneath WLRAB004 which returned 9m @ 2.19% Pb, 0.11% Zn from 1m and 6m @ 1.01% Pb from 13m . Broad intervals of highly anomalous base metals mineralisation were returned including 2m @ 2.30% Zn, 0.81% Pb, 4 g/t Ag from 139m .

Peel also completed 52 RAB drillholes at the Northern end of the Wirlong prospect, about 2 km North of the historic Wirlong workings. The majority of these drillholes intersected highly anomalous base metals mineralisation including the aforementioned WLRAB004.

Results indicate that Wirlong represents a very large, mineralised, hydrothermal system, with a strike length of more than 2.5km, open to the North and South. Furthermore, the prospective stratigraphy that hosts mineralisation at Wirlong is traceable to the Red Shaft prospect, indicating a mineralised trend covering more than 6km of strike. Wirlong shares many attributes similar to other Cobar-style deposits including the Shuttleton copper deposit (6km to the West) and the Peak/Perseverance goldcopper deposits with mineralisation being hosted in sheared felsic volcanics and sediments with strong sericite and chlorite alteration.

DHEM is planned for WLRC005 and WLRC006 with follow-up drill planning now underway.

Red Shaft

Drilling at Red Shaft comprised 2 RC drillholes for 303m and 40 RAB drillholes for 1,953m. Strong base and precious metals mineralisation was returned from multiple drillholes. Red Shaft bares many similarities to Wirlong with mineralisation hosted within sheared felsic volcanics and sediments.

RSRC001 (189m) was designed to test a strong surface copper anomaly in close proximity to the main historic working at Red Shaft however only weak copper-zinc anomalism was returned.

RSRC002 (114m) was designed to test beneath significant gold-base metals mineralisation returned from RSRAB035: 15m @ 0.86 g/t Au from 7m . Highly anomalous base metal values were returned from several broad zones within RSRC002, however, only minor gold values were present.

Interpretation of Red Shaft results is continuing.

Sandy Creek

Drilling at Sandy Creek comprised 4 RC drillholes for 752m; 1 RC precollar with diamond tail drillhole for 308m RC, 208m diamond; and 1 diamond drillhole for 600m. A further 51 RAB drillholes for 1,786m were also completed. Drillholes PSCRCDD002 and PSCDD002 encountered encouraging mineralisation which continues to highlight the potential of the Sandy Creek prospect.

PSCRC001 (160m) and PSCRC003 (160m) were both designed to test shallow IP resistivity targets however no significant results were returned.

PSCRCDD002 (516m) was designed to test a strong chargeable IP anomaly at the Northern end of the Sandy Creek prospect. An RC pre-collar was completed to 308m which was then followed by a 208m diamond tail. PSCRCDD002 predominantly encountered fine-to-medium grained turbiditic sediments, with noticeable volcaniclastic components in places. Pyrrhotite and pyrite sulphide mineralisation occurs at deeper levels (below 350m downhole) and are interpreted as contributing to the IP response. In places, fine mudstone units are fractured with thin network-type veins and/or shearing in places. Several minor sphalerite/chalcopyrite/pyrrhotite/galena veins occur in fractures with anomalous but generally low base metal values returned from these zones. DHEM surveying of PSCRCDD002 show several on- and off-hole conductors, with offhole conductors positioned below the drillhole. Further downhole modelling is planned.

PSCRC004 (282m) and PSCRC005 (150m) were drilled in an attempt to target a strong chargeable IP and DHEM anomaly situated about 500m below surface in the central part of the main area of interest at Sandy Creek. PSCRC004 was terminated at 282m after significant deviation from drillhole design.

PSCRC005 was collared in a scissor position, however was also prematurely terminated following deviation from drillhole design and high water inflows.

PSCDD002 (600.2m) was designed to target the aforementioned anomaly unsuccessfully tested by PSCRC004 and PSCRC005. PSCDD002 predominantly encountered fine-to-medium grained turbiditic sediments. At about 490m, a 20m-wide zone of quartz-healed brecciated turbiditic sediments was encountered with several intervals of locally strong pyrrhotite-pyrite-sphalerite-chalcopyrite-galena mineralisation occurring in narrow massive veins and fracture fills with associated sericite and chlorite alteration. Assay results for PSCDD002 remain pending. DHEM surveying of PSCDD002 is planned.

Mallee Bull

During January and February, an “Orion 3D” DC/IP and MT survey covering about 5km2 was completed. Orion 3D is a cutting edge geophysical system and the results of the survey, which remain pending, are expected to guide the next phase of exploration at Mallee Bull including drilling over the coming months.

The information in this report that relates to Exploration Results is based on information compiled by Rob Tyson who is a fulltime employee of the company. Mr Tyson is a member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Tyson has sufficient experience of relevance to the styles of mineralisation and the types of deposits under consideration, and to the activities undertaken, to qualify as Competent Persons as defined in the 2012 Edition of the Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Mr Tyson consents to the inclusion in this report of the matters based on information in the form and context in which it appears. Exploration results are based on standard industry practices, including sampling, assay methods, and appropriate quality assurance quality control (QAQC) measures.

Table 1 - Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data for Mallee Bull/Cobar Superbasin Project

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.
 Diamond, reverse circulation (RC) and
Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drilling were used to
obtain samples for geological logging and
assaying.
 Diamond core was cut and sampled at 1m
intervals. RC and RAB drill holes were
sampled at 1m intervals and split using a
cone splitter attached to the cyclone to
generate a split of 2-4kg to ensure sample
representivity.
 Multi-element readings were taken of the
RC and RAB drill chips using an Olympus
Delta Innov-X portable XRF tool. The
portable XRF was calibrated against
standards after every 30 readings.
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).
 Drilling to date has been a combination of
diamond, reverse circulation and rotary air
blast. Reverse circulation drilling utilised a
5 1/2 inch diameter hammer. A blade bit
was predominantly used for RAB drilling.
NQ and HQ coring was used for diamond
drilling.
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.
 Core recoveries are recorded by the drillers
in the field at the time of drilling and
checked by a geologist or technician.
 RC and RAB samples are not weighed on a
regular basis due to the exploration nature
of drilling but no significant sample
recovery issues have been encountered in
drilling programs to date.
 Diamond core is reconstructed into
continuous runs on an angle iron cradle for
orientation markingand depths are

checked against the depths recorded on
core blocks. Rod counts are routinely
undertaken by drillers.
 When
poor
sample
recovery
is
encountered during drilling, the geologist
and driller have endeavoured to rectify the
problem to ensure maximum sample
recovery.
 Sample recoveries to date have generally
been high. Insufficient data is available at
present to determine if a relationship
exists between recovery and grade. This
will be assessed once a statistically valid
amount of data is available to make a
determination.
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 core and drill chip samples are
geologically logged. Core samples are
orientated and logged for geotechnical
information. Drill chip samples are logged
at 1m intervals from surface to the bottom
of each individual hole to a level that will
support
appropriate
future
Mineral
Resource studies.
 Logging of diamond core, RC and RAB
samples records lithology, mineralogy,
mineralisation, structure (DDH
only),
weathering, colour and other features of
the samples. Core is photographed as both
wet and dry.
 All diamond, RC and RAB drill holes in the
current program were geologically logged
in full.
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

Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-
sampling stages to maximise representivity of
samples.
Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is
representative of the in situ material collected,
including

instance
results
for
field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain
size of the material being sampled.
 Drill core was cut with a core saw and half
core taken.
 The RC and RAB drilling rigs were equipped
with an in-built cyclone and splitting
system, which provided one bulk sample of
approximately 20kg and a sub-sample of 2-
4kg per metre drilled.
 All samples were split using the system
described above to maximise and maintain
consistent representivity. The majority of
samples were dry.
 Bulk samples were placed in green plastic
bags, with the sub-samples collected
placed in calico sample bags.
 Field duplicates were collected by re-
splitting the bulk samples from large
plastic bags. These duplicates were
designed for lab checks.
 Early stage exploration sees composite
sampling completed for Au only analysis,
with samples hand speared using a half
roundpiece ofpipe with samples collected

Resampling
is
undertaken using split samples which are
stored with the bulk samples at the time of
drilling.
 Where pXRF sampling indicates significant
base metals mineralisation, 1m split
samples for those intervals are collected
and submitted for multi-element analysis.
 A sample size of 2-4kg was collected and
considered
appropriate
and
representative for the grain size and style
of mineralisation.
Quality
of
assay
data
and

tests
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the
assaying and laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered partial or total.
For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF
instruments,
etc,
the
parameters
used
in
determining the analysis including instrument make
and model, reading times, calibrations factors
applied and their derivation, etc.
Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg
standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory
checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy
(ie lack of bias) and precision have been established.
 ALS Laboratory (Orange) was used for Au
analysis work carried out on the 6m
composite samples and 1m split samples.
The laboratory techniques below are for all
samples submitted to ALS and are
considered appropriate for the style of
mineralisation defined at Mundoe, Sandy

 Assaying of soil samples in the field was by
portable XRF instrument Olympus Delta
Innov-X Analyser. Reading time was 20
seconds per filter with a total 3 filters per
sample.
 The QA/QC data includes standards,
duplicates
and
laboratory
checks.
Duplicates for drill core are collected by
the lab every 30 samples after the core
sample is pulverised. Duplicates for
percussion drilling are collected directly
from the drill rig or the metre sample bag
using a half round section of pipe. In-house
QA/QC tests are conducted by the lab on
each batch of samples with standards
supplied by the same companies that
supplyour own.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
The verification of significant intersections by either
independent or alternative company personnel.
The use of twinned holes.
Documentation of primary data, data entry
procedures, data verification, data storage (physical
and electronic) protocols.
Discuss any adjustment to assay data.
 All geological logging and sampling
information is completed in spreadsheets,
which are then transferred to a database
for validation and compilation at the Peel
head office. Electronic copies of all
information are backed up periodically.
 No adjustments of assay data are
considered necessary.

samples. Standard practice is for the GPS
to be left at the site of the collar for a
period of 5 minutes to obtain a steady
reading. Collars are picked up at a later
date by DGPS. Down-hole surveys are
conducted by the drill contractors using
either a Reflex gyroscopic tool with
readings every 10m after drill hole
completion or a Reflex electronic multi-
shot camera will be used with readings for
dip and magnetic azimuth taken every 30m
down-hole. QA/QC in the field involves
calibration using a test stand. The
instrument is positioned with a stainless
steel drill rod so as not to affect the
magnetic azimuth.
 Grid system used is MGA 94 (Zone 55). All
down-hole
magnetic
surveys
were
converted to MGA94grid.
Data spacing
and
distribution
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.
Whether the data spacing and distribution is
sufficient to establish the degree of geological and
grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s)
and classifications applied.
Whether sample compositing has been applied.
 Data/drill hole spacing is variable and
appropriate to the geology and historical
drilling.
 6m sample compositing has been applied
to RC drilling at Red Shaft and Mundoe for
gold assay, and to RAB drilling at Sandy
Creek,Red Shaft and Wirlong.
Orientation of
data
in
relation
to
geological
structure
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves
unbiased sampling of possible structures and the
extent to which this is known, considering the
deposit type.
If the relationship between the drilling orientation
and the orientation of key mineralised structures is
considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this
should be assessed and reported if material.
 Most drillholes are planned to intersect the
interpreted mineralised structures/lodes
as near to a perpendicular angle as
possible (subject to access to the preferred
collar position).
Sample
security
The measures taken to ensure sample security.  The chain of custody is managed by the
project geologist who places calico sample
bags in polyweave sacks. Up to 5 calico
sample bags are placed in each sack. Each
sack is clearly labelled with:

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 length weighting or top-cuts have been
applied.
 No metal equivalent values are used for
reporting exploration results.
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 ‘down hole length, true width not
_known’). _

True widths are generally estimated to be
about 60% of the downhole width.
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.
 Refer to Figures in the body of text.
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 results are reported.
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.
 No other substantive exploration data are
available.
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.
 Future work at Mallee Bull will include
geophysical surveying and RC/diamond
drilling to further define the extent of
mineralization at the prospect. Down hole
electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys will be
used to identify potential conductive
sources
that
may
be
related
to
mineralization.
 Future work within the Cobar Superbasin
tenements
will
involve
geophysical
surveying and RC/diamond drilling to
target existinganomalies.
