More Good Drill Results, Bobosso Joint Venture, Cote D’Ivoire

Predictive Discovery Limited (ASX: PDI) is pleased to announce more positive RC drill results from the Bobosso Joint Venture with Progress Minerals International (Inc.) in Cote D’Ivoire:

  • Best new intercepts:

  • 56m @ 1.58g/t Au from 47m including 3m at 6.10g/t Au

  • 18m at 2.05g/t Au from 9m including 4m at 5.59g/t Au ,

  • 8m at 1.95g/t Au from 31m,

  • 8m at 1.73g/t Au from 19m,

  • 8m at 1.58g/t Au from 98m,

  • 1m at 15.53g/t Au from 61m,

  • 4m at 3.05g/t Au from 23m.

  • Six zones within the very large Bobosso gold mineralised system have now been tested by RC drilling, with mineralised strike lengths of 100 to 300m, all of which are open along strike and could therefore become larger.

Mr Paul Roberts, Predictive’s Managing Director said: “These results add to the good initial drill assays we reported on 16[th] January 2018. Two drill programs have now been completed by the joint venture, both of which have yielded encouraging results and added to our knowledge of this very large gold mineralised system. We remain confident that there are more gold mineralised zones with good continuity to be found at Bobosso - both as extensions to the zones we have already drilled and in new, as yet untested, areas.”

INTRODUCTION

The Bobosso Project consists of two granted exploration permits, Bassawa and Wendene in northern Cote D’Ivoire (Figure 1), which are held by an Ivoirian company, XMI SARl ( XMI ). Bassawa and Wendene are located in the southern extension of the well mineralised Hounde Belt in Burkina Faso, which includes Semafo’s Mana Mine (5 Moz in ore resources and reserves[1] ).

Previous exploration by Equigold, Lihir and Newcrest including a series of large drilling programs totalling 569 RC holes and 11 diamond drill holes. This obtained many gold mineralised intercepts

beneath a 7km[2] gold-in-soil geochemical anomaly (ASX release dated 28/10/15) indicating the presence of a large gold mineralised system.

Earlier geological mapping and re-logging of historical diamond drill core by Predictive staff has demonstrated that the gold mineralisation is hosted in a sequence of mafic volcanics, with lesser felsic to intermediate volcanics and minor metasediments. Gold mineralisation is found in both broad, moderate grade alteration zones (carbonate-silica-sericite-pyrite) and narrower, higher grade quartz veins.

PDI entered the Bobosso project through an agreement which was signed in October 2015 with the owner of XMI, West Africa Venture Investment ( WAVI ). In 2017, Predictive and WAVI entered into a funding agreement with Progress Minerals Inc ( Progress ) through which Progress has now funded US$1 million of expenditure to earn a 30% equity in the project. Progress may increase its equity in the project to 55% by spending an additional US$1.5 million. Predictive’s current equity stands at 30%.

RC DRILLING PROGRAM

An RC drilling program, totalling 45 holes and 4,244m, was completed on 21[st] December 2017. It was designed to explore six small target areas within the large Bobosso gold mineralised system by testing:

  • for extensions to gold mineralisation intersected in the earlier diamond drilling e.g. Targets 1 and 4,

  • for a postulated flat mineralised zone at the Wendene Hill location, and

  • along strike from historical drill intercepts e.g. BRC39, BRC104 and BRC135.

The holes were mostly drilled towards the SSE on a 160 degree azimuth in keeping with the previously inferred ENE strike and north dip of the mineralised zones.

The program was carried out by Foramin and the drill samples were assayed by Bureau Veritas in Abidjan. Additional details about the program are provided in Table 1.

Drilling of the first four targets all obtained very encouraging results including:

  • Wendene Hill target:

  • 12m at 4.93g/t Au from 5m including 1m at 41.33g/t Au ,

  • 15m at 1.06g/t Au from 20m.

  • Target 4:

  • 19m at 1.28g/t Au from 73m,

  • 19m at 1.00g/t Au from 23m,

  • 9m at 1.47g/t Au from 40m.

  • BRC135 target:

  • 21m at 1.59g/t Au from 61m.

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

  • BRC09 target

  • 28m at 2.18g/t Au from 5m including 1m at 14.16g/t Au

  • 19m at 2.13g/t Au from 3m

Drill results from the remaining two target areas are reported here:

Target 1

Figure 3 illustrates the distribution of gold mineralised intercepts in this prospect, highlighting the results of this drill program, and showing both historical drill intercepts (ASX release dated 28/10/15) and the joint venture’s 2017 diamond drill results (ASX release dated 20/7/17). The gold mineralised zone is now known to extend approximately 300m along strike and is open to the east-north-east and west-south-west. Several mineralised zones are indicated, and appear to dip steeply to the north.

BRC104 target

Figure 4 illustrates the distribution of gold mineralised intercepts in this prospect, highlighting the results of this drill program along with historical drill intercepts (ASX release dated 28/10/15). The zone appears to strike east-north-east similar to target however the dip is not clear and may be steep towards the south – unlike all other mineralised zones drilled to date. The BOBRC057 intercept extends to 103m downhole, indicating that good grade mineralisation can continue at depth.

Conclusions

All of the RC drill results have now been reported. This program has shown that:

  • The strike orientations of the gold mineralised zones in the Bobosso system (associated with wide alteration zones and disseminated pyrite) range from east-west to northnorth-east. Therefore, given the lack of outcrop in most areas, extensions to each mineralised zone need to be tested carefully in a stepwise fashion until mineralisation strike and dip is established.

  • Gold grades and widths are generally highest in the near-surface, suggesting some supergene enrichment. Resource drilling will therefore need to obtain a shallow intercept on each section to ensure that a representative picture of average grades and widths at open pit mineable depths are obtained. The BOBRC057 intercept does illustrate, however, that good grades and widths can persist to depth in fresh rock.

  • The mineralised alteration continuity that was observed in the 2017 diamond drilling has been confirmed by the RC drilling. The primary alteration is very characteristic (pale coloured carbonate-silica-sericite) and much of it is gold-anomalous especially where pyrite and/or quartz veining is present.

  • The flat mineralised zone at Wendene Hill may be the first of a number yet to be discovered within the Bobosso mineralised system. Such zones could be important targets, especially in the near surface, as they present the opportunity to discover

5

==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==

significant volumes of mineralisation within the zone of supergene enrichment and with potentially low stripping ratios if they are shown to be economically viable to mine.

  • This drilling has contributed to the ongoing process of identifying mineralised zones with significant gold-bearing widths, especially in the near surface, most of which are open along strike. The historical drilling has been a useful starting point for testing new areas, however given the generally incorrect historical drill orientation and the prevalence of better grades and widths in the near surface, which were not optimally tested, there is a substantial opportunity to find more zones of the type described here. Furthermore, as Figure 1 demonstrates, there are large untested areas within the outline of the Bobosso soil geochemical anomaly which have seen no drilling at all.

NEXT STEPS

The joint venture partners are discussing the results of this drill program. The next exploration program, both for the Bobosso gold mineralised system and the surrounding exploration permits, will be determined in the next few weeks. More drilling is expected during 2018.

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.
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.
The RC samples were all sampled and assayed in 1m
intervals.
No top cuts have been applied to the drill results.
Up to 3m (down-hole) of internal waste is included.
Mineralised intervals are reported on a weighted average basis.
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 have generally not yet been estimated as
these will be guided by a 3D interpretation of the drill
results which is still in progress.
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.
Appropriate plans and representative cross sections
are included in this release.
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.
Intercepts are reported at 0.25g/t Au and 0.5g/t Au
cutoffs and containing at least 1g/t x m with a maximum
thickness of internal waste of 3m.
Other Other exploration data, if All relevant exploration data is either reported in this release

Predictive Discovery Limited (PDI) was established in late 2007 and listed on the ASX in December 2010. The Company is focused on exploration for gold in West Africa. The Company operates in Burkina Faso, West Africa where it has assembled a substantial regional ground position covering 949km[2] and has been exploring for large, open-pittable gold deposits. Exploration in eastern Burkina Faso has yielded a large portfolio of exciting gold prospects, including the high grade Bongou gold deposit on which a resource estimate was calculated in September 2014. PDI also has interests in a large portfolio of permits and permit applications in Côte D’Ivoire covering a total area of over 6,000 km[2] .

Competent Persons Statement

The exploration results reported herein, insofar as they relate to mineralisation are based on information compiled by Mr Paul Roberts (Fellow of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists). Mr Roberts is a full time employee of the company and has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposits being considered to qualify as a Competent Person as defined by the 2012 Edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Mr Roberts consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.
