Peel Mining Limited (ASX:PEX) (Peel or the Company) is pleased to report further strong resource definition drill results from the May Day deposit. May Day is part of Peel’s South Cobar Project, centred around 100km south of Cobar in Western NSW. Drilling at May Day is part of the Company’s “Hub & Spoke” strategy to advance each of the Company’s deposits to mineable resources, to achieve critical mass in support of a new substantial centrally located processing plant.
The latest assay results show further strong, continuous, and wide gold-polymetallic intercepts, confirming substantial true width (~25m) at relatively shallow depths. A high-grade core proximal to the hangingwall is evident with an approximate true thickness of up to ~12m. Resource drilling at May Day is now completed in advance of an anticipated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) update in early 2021. Assays are pending for the balance of completed drilling.
At Southern Nights drill testing for a southerly extension outside of the current resource model has returned significant new massive sulphide Zn-Pb-Ag-Cu-Au mineralisation. This mineralisation is open to the southwest and follow-up drilling is planned to continue to grow this major mineral system.
Peel Mining Managing Director Rob Tyson commented:
“May Day continues to return strong gold-polymetallic mineralisation over good widths including the highest-grade zinc-lead-silver mineralisation seen to date in drillhole MDRC017. Drilling at May Day is now finished, and we look forward to receiving the balance of assays and finalising the updated resource model in early 2021.”
“The high-grade massive sulphide intercepts outside of the Southern Nights resource envelope highlights once again the ongoing growth potential of Peel’s Cobar resource base as we advance towards our critical mass goal. We look forward to following up these intercepts in due course.”

May Day
May Day is contained within ML1361, part of the Mallee Bull project, which is the subject of a purchase and sale agreement between Peel and CBH Resources Limited. Settlement of the transaction is subject to Ministerial consent for the transfer of title. May Day is viewed as having potential to provide openpittable gold-rich starter ore to Peel’s Hub and Spoke development strategy.
Peel recently reported an in-pit maiden Inferred MRE for May Day of 1.13 Mt at 1.3 g/t Au, 19 g/t Ag, 0.74% Zn, 0.50% Pb, 0.09% Cu containing 47,200oz gold, 680,000oz silver, 8,320t zinc, 5,640t lead, 1,020t copper (65,100 oz gold equivalent). The MRE has been reported in accordance with the JORC Code (2012 Edition) using a 0.65g/t AuEq cut off grade (See Table 1).
Resource definition drilling has been designed on an approximate 25x20m basis to enable an updated estimation of a primarily Indicated classified mineral resource, within an optimised pit shell. Deeper, higher grade mineralisation may allow for the definition of potential underground resources. The MRE update is anticipated around year end.
May Day mineralisation is shear-hosted/related with primary sulphides comprising pyrite-sphaleritegalena-chalcopyrite. At the time of reporting, resource definition drilling was nearing completion.
Newly received assays show further strong, continuous, and wide gold-polymetallic intercepts, confirming substantial true width (~25m) at relatively shallow depths. A high-grade core proximal to the hangingwall is evident with an approximate true thickness of up to ~12m. These results compliment previously received assays which also confirmed good down-dip continuity (minimum 180m down dip continuity from the base of the pit) of the May Day mineral system. Better new RC drilling results include:
-
27m @ 1.03g/t Au, 25g/t Ag, 1.15% Zn, 0.77% Pb, 0.13% Cu from 106m in MDRC012

Table 1 - Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data for South Cobar 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 and reverse circulation (RC) drilling were used to obtain samples for geological logging and assaying. Diamond core was cut and sampled at 1m intervals on average or intervals determined by geological contacts. 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 machine or an Olympus Vanta portable XRF machine. Portable XRF machines 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. PQ, 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 but no significant sample recovery issues have been encountered in a drilling program to date. 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 at Wirlong, May Day and Mallee Bull to date have generally been high. Sample recoveries at Wagga Tank have been variable with broken ground occurringinplaces andpoorer sample |

| recoveries encountered. 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. Sample recoveries at Southern Nights have beengenerallyhigh to date. |
||
| 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 May Day where logging is still underway. |
| 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 split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique. 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 for 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 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. Laboratory duplicate samples are split using method SPL-21d which produces a split sample using a riffle splitter. These samples are selected by the geologist within moderate and high-grade zones. A sample size of 2-4kg was collected and considered appropriate and representative for the grain size and style of mineralisation. |

Reading time for Innov-X was 20 seconds per reading , reading time for Vanta was 10 & 20 seconds per reading. 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 Geobank Mobile or 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. |

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. 3m to 6m sample compositing has been applied to RC drilling for gold and/or multi- element assay where appropriate. |
| 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). |

Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. |
Work at May Day was completed by multiple previous explorers including Mt Hope Minerals, Le Nickel, Epoch Mining, Imperial Corporation, and Triako. Significant work included diamond drilling by Mt Hope Minerals to ~270 m below the surface targeting a resistivity high and a surface geochemical anomaly. Le Nickel continued exploration (in conjunction with Mt Hope Minerals) in the mid-1970s, which included further diamond drilling. Between 1987 and 1991 Epoch Mining carried out relatively shallow (less than 100m below surface) reverse circulation and diamond drilling. Work at Mallee Bull was completed in the area by several former tenement holders including Triako Resources between 2003 and 2009; it included diamond drilling, IP surveys, geological mapping and reconnaissance geochemical sampling around the historic Four Mile Goldfield area. Prior to Triako Resources, Pasminco Exploration explored the Cobar Basin area for a “Cobar-type” or “Elura-type” zinc- lead-silver or copper-gold-lead-zinc deposit. Work at Wagga Tank was completed by multiple previous explorers including Newmont, Homestake, Amoco, Cyprus, Arimco, Golden Cross, Pasminco and MMG. Minimal exploration has been completed at the Wagga Tank area since 1989. |
| Geology | Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. |
May Day deposit, a structurally controlled‐ volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) system, is a classic analogue for Cobar‐ style precious and base metal mineralisation. May Day was reportedly discovered in 1898. Carne in 1908 described the workings in the May Day area as primarily for gold which was “disseminated through slate near the junction of porphyry”. The main rock types within the open cut consist of variably |

| chlorite and talc altered crystal-vitric tuff and tuffaceous siltstone of the Mount Halfway Volcanics and interbedded sandstone, siltstone and claystone of the Upper Amphitheatre Group. The contact between the two units is gradational and well exposed within the open cut. The rocks have been folded by steeply northeast-plunging folds with an associated upright northeast-trending axial plane cleavage. Within some of the volcaniclastic rocks the cleavage is intense and appears as a shear fabric. Numerous thrust faults, with various orientations, disrupt the sequence and generally postdate the northeasterly plunging folds. Primary gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc mineralisation occurs within deformed quartz veins, mainly within the volcaniclastic rocks, with associated clinochlore alteration. Based upon previous exploration work and the apparent way in which mining was carried out, the mineralised zones appear to be steeply plunging shoots. A structural analysis suggests that the mineralised veins were emplaced into the zone of shearing, synchronous with its formation, accompanying steeply northeast plunging folds. It is considered that the structural and lithological features within the open cut are best explained by asymmetric folding. This deformation is considered to have occurred in the late Early Devonian, consistent with features of the Cobar deformation event observed elsewhere in the region. The northeast trend of structures, in contrast to the general northerly trend observed regionally, is attributed to refraction by the northeast trending Gilgunnia Granite, nine kilometres to the northwest of the mine. Oblique thrust faulting, with associated folding, has disrupted the sequence and is attributed to a separate stress regime, assumed to be part of the Carboniferous Kanimblan Orogeny. 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. Mineralisation 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, is believed to be a volcanic- hosted massive sulphide (VHMS) or Cobar- style deposit, and 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 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). |

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.

| examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
||
| 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 80% 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. |
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. |
The consistency, grade, and potential for extension to the intersections at May Day warrants further drilling to extend the mineralisation along strike (East–West) and at depth. Future work at Mallee Bull and Cobar Superbasin Project will include geophysical surveying and RC/diamond drilling to further define the extent of mineralisation at the prospects.
