Mallee Bull and Cobar Superbasin Project

  • Drilling at Mallee Bull South, designed to test a structural target south of the existing mineral resource domain, is now underway

  • Drilling at Wirlong (part of the Cobar Superbasin Project), designed to test for extensions to previously reported significant copper mineralisation, is now underway

Peel Mining (ASX:PEX) Ltd advises that recent drilling at its 100%-owned Wagga Tank project, near Cobar in western NSW, has returned high grade Zn-Pb-Ag-Cu-Au mineralised drill intercepts. The initial drilling program, designed to confirm the presence of high grade base and precious metal mineralisation originally identified at Wagga Tank in the 1970s and 80s, has been expanded as a result of the positive results encountered so far.

The Company also advises that drilling at Mallee Bull South, designed to test a structural target south of the existing mineral resource domain, is now underway. Drilling at Wirlong (part of the Cobar Superbasin Project), designed to test for extensions to previously reported significant copper mineralisation, is also now underway. Mallee Bull and the Cobar Superbasin Projects are both located in the Cobar region of NSW.

Wagga Tank (100% Peel Mining)

Wagga Tank is located on the western edge of the Cobar Superbasin, ~130 km south of Cobar or ~45km southwest of Mallee Bull, and represents a polymetallic VHMS-type deposit with many significant historic drill intercepts; last drilling was in 1989. The initial drilling program was designed to confirm the presence of high grade base and precious metal mineralisation originally identified at Wagga Tank in the 1970s and 80s.

To date, Peel has completed sixteen RC drillholes (for 3,727m). The majority of these drillholes ended in mineralisation and will require diamond tails, and to date, only one diamond tail (WTRCDD002) has been completed. High-grade zinc-lead-silver sulphide and copper oxide/sulphide mineralisation has now been confirmed at Wagga Tank with results including:

Mineralisation is hosted in a sequence of rhyodacitic volcanic and associated volcaniclastic rocks comprising polymictic conglomerate, sandstone, slate, crystal-lithic tuff and crystal tuff. This sequence faces northwest, strikes northeast-southwest and dips range from moderate westerly, to vertical, and locally overturned to the east. Mineralisation straddles the contact between the volcaniclastic facies and the siltstone-slate facies where there is a broad zone of intense tectonic brecciation and hydrothermal alteration (sericite-chlorite with local silicification). Mineralisation is believed to subvertical in nature, and therefore true widths are likely to be ~60-70% of the downhole widths.

Assays for the balance of Wagga Tank RC drilling (WTRC006 to WTRC016) remain pending, however preliminary drillhole geological logging coupled with portable XRF analysis (Olympus Delta) has confirmed the presence of further significant zones of copper oxide/sulphide mineralisation and zinclead-silver sulphide mineralisation.

In light of the confirmation of high grade base and precious metal mineralisation at Wagga Tank, Peel has expanded the current drilling program to garner further information with regards to the setting, tenor, mineralisation style and alteration of the Wagga Tank prospect.

The Company will provide further information on the Wagga Tank program as results are received and analysed.

Mallee Bull (50% Peel Mining; 50% CBH Resources)

Drilling at Mallee Bull South, designed to test a structural target south of the existing mineral resource domain, is now underway and is part of investigations to find new mineralisation. A structural analysis of the Mallee Bull deposit was conducted by Orefind Pty Ltd using a combination of field and core examination and 3D implicit geological modelling. Four main zones were identified as targets, with the most promising being both down- and up-plunge from the high grade zones that are defined by the existing drilling. The down-plunge target to the south of Mallee Bull is considered a high priority target, and accordingly drilling is now underway to test for any potential strike extension at Mallee Bull.

Cobar Superbasin Project (60% Peel Mining; 40% JOGMEC)

Drilling at Wirlong (part of the Cobar Superbasin Project), designed to test for extensions to previously reported significant copper mineralisation, is also now underway.

During the September 2016 quarter, JOGMEC concluded its Stage 1 expenditure commitments ($4m) and, consequently, has earned a 40% interest in the project. JOGMEC has elected to enter into Stage 2 to acquire an additional 10% interest of the JV by spending a further $3 million.

As a result, field activities are re-commencing at the Wirlong prospect, where mineralisation remains open up and down dip, and along strike; the planned RC/diamond holes will focus on extending the known mineralisation and targeting potential higher grade structures. Furthermore, RC drill programs are planned for the Red Shaft, Sandy Creek and Bedooba prospects to follow-up previous significant intercepts (10m @ 0.84 g/t Au, 0.20% Cu, 0.26% Pb from 60m in RSRC003 and 5m @ 0.76% Cu from 62m in RSRC007 at Red Shaft), target gravity/magnetic anomalies, and to test surface soil and rock chip anomalies at Bedooba (incl. sample 50037 which returned 2.8% Pb, 0.2% Cu, 1% As).

Other planned activities include detailed airborne EM surveys at Irisvale and Armageddon, and RAB/soil geochem surveys at Bedooba, and soil geochem surveys MD2 and Armageddon.

Mallee Bull Background

The Mallee Bull project, comprising EL7461 and ML1361, lies adjacent to the historic 4-Mile Goldfield and was identified as a coincident EM and magnetic geophysical anomaly in early 2011. In mid-2011 massive and stringer/breccia sulphide mineralisation with strong Cu-Ag-Au-Pb-Zn values, characteristic of major Cobar-style deposits, was intercepted in drilling.

In May 2012, Peel and CBH Resources Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Toho Zinc Co Ltd., signed a Heads of Agreement related to EL7461 and ML1361, under which, CBH gained the right to earn up to 50% via $8.33 million expenditure. In March 2014, CBH Resources completed its final Farm-in payment, and consequently a 50:50 Joint Venture has now been formed.

Mineralisation at Mallee Bull features the “Cobar-style” attributes of short strike length, moderate widths and extensive vertical continuity, with the deepest mineralised drillhole intercept at more than 800m below surface. A maiden inferred resource estimate for Mallee Bull was made in May 2014, in accordance with the JORC Code (2012), comprising 3.9 million tonnes at 2.3% copper, 32 g/t silver and 0.3 g/t gold for 90,000 tonnes of contained copper, 4 million ounces contained silver and 43,000 ounces contained gold (at a 1% copper equivalent cut-off) (See Table 1 below).

Wagga Tank Background

Wagga Tank, a volcanic-hosted massive sulphide (VHMS) deposit, is located ~130 km south of Cobar on the western edge of the Cobar Superbasin. The deposit is positioned at the western-most exposure of the Mt. Keenan Volcanics (Mt. Hope Group) where it is conformably overlain by a poorly outcropping, distal turbidite sequence of carbonaceous slate and siltstone. Mineralisation is hosted in a sequence of rhyodacitic volcanic and associated volcaniclastic rocks comprising polymictic conglomerate, sandstone, slate, crystal-lithic tuff and crystal tuff. This sequence faces northwest, strikes northeastsouthwest and dips range from moderate westerly, to vertical, and locally overturned to the east. Mineralisation straddles the contact between the volcaniclastic facies and the siltstone-slate facies where there is a broad zone of intense tectonic brecciation and hydrothermal alteration (sericitechlorite with local silicification).

Mineralisation comprises: a near surface oxide gold zone; a possible supergene-enriched copper-goldsilver-lead zone; and a primary zinc-lead-silver rich massive sulphide zone starting at the base of oxidation (~120m below surface). Historic drilling to date comprised 20 percussion drillholes and 22 diamond drillholes (some completed as percussion pre-collar/diamond tail combinations). All drillholes intersected mineralisation to some degree, with 24 intercepting significant values.

Polymetallic massive sulphide mineralisation occurs as sub-vertical elongate shoots/lenses within zones of brecciation and hydrothermal alteration, within an envelope of lower grade disseminated and anastomosing vein-type mineralisation. The massive sulphide mineralisation typically comprises, in order of abundance, pyrite, sphalerite, galena and chalcopyrite with sphalerite-galena ratios in the order of 2:1, chalcopyrite is accessory and there with silver assays typically ranging from 50-250g/t and gold from 0.1-0.5g/t.

No significant work has been completed at Wagga Tank since 1989.

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 and reverse circulation (RC)
drilling were used to obtain samples for
geological logging and assaying.
 Diamond core was cut and sampled at 1m
intervals. RC 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
diamond core and RC drill chips using an
Olympus Delta Innov-X portable XRF tool.
Portable XRF tools are routinely serviced,
calibrated
and
checked
against
blanks/standards.
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
a drilling program to date.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
 Diamond core is reconstructed into
continuous runs on an angle iron cradle for
orientation marking and 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 drill holes in the current
program were geologically logged in full
except at Wagga Tank where logging is still
underway.
Sub-sampling
techniques
and
sample

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

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 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.
 A sample size of 2-4kgwas collected and

seconds per reading with a total 3 readings
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.

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 after 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.

appropriate to the geology and historical
drilling.
 3m to 6m sample compositing has been
applied to RC drilling at Mallee Bull for gold
and/or multi-element assay.
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:
o
Peel Mining Ltd
o
Address of Laboratory
o
Sample range
 Detailed records are kept of all samples
that are dispatched, including details of
chain of custody.
Audits
or
reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data.
 Data is validated when loading into the
database. No formal external audit has
been conducted.

Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.
 The Mallee Bull prospect area lies within
the
Cobar-Mt
Hope
Siluro-Devonian
sedimentary and volcanic units. The
northern
Cobar
region
consists
of
predominantly sedimentary units with
tuffaceous member, whilst the southern
Mt Hope region consists of predominantly
felsic volcanic rocks; the Mallee Bull
prospect seems to be located in an area of
overlap between these two regions.
Mineralization at the Mallee Bull discovery
features the Cobar-style attributes of short
strike lengths (<200m), narrow widths (5-
20m) and vertical continuity, and occurs as
a shoot-like structure dipping moderately
to the west.
 Wagga Tank, a volcanic-hosted massive
sulphide (VHMS) deposit, is located ~130
km south of Cobar on the western edge of
the Cobar Superbasin. The deposit is
positioned at the western-most exposure
of the Mt. Keenan Volcanics (Mt. Hope
Group) where it is conformably overlain by
a poorly-outcropping, distal turbidite
sequence of carbonaceous slate and

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:
o easting and northing of the drill hole collar
o elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above
sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar
o dip and azimuth of the hole
o down hole length and interception depth
o hole 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.
 All relevant information material to the
understanding of exploration results has
been included within the body of the
announcement or as appendices.
 No information has been excluded.
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 90-100% of the downhole width
unless otherwise indicated.
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.
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
