PREDICTIVE RETAINS MINORITY HOLDING IN VICTORIAN GOLD PROJECT
Predictive Discovery Limited (ASX: PDI ) ( Predictive ) is pleased to confirm its participation in a joint venture with Petratherm Limited (ASX: PTR ) and Cape Clear Minerals Pty Ltd ( CCM ) on the Glenfine Gold Project in Victoria.
Predictive currently holds a 25% equity over two of the three Exploration Licences in the Glenfine Gold Project (ELs 5534 and 5537 – see attached for location) through an unincorporated joint venture with CCM. As described in the attached announcement, PTR has the right to earn an 80% equity in the entire Glenfine Gold Project by expenditure of $3 million, which, if achieved, will leave PDI and CCM jointly holding a 20% equity in the Project .
Predictive’s interest in the Glenfine Gold Project dates back to 2012. Given the Company’s focus on West Africa and our minority position in the joint venture with CCM, this is a legacy interest for PDI, which we are pleased will now be explored by a well credentialled exploration company.
Predictive and CCM are currently finalising an updated agreement through which the beneficial equities of the two parties in relation to the three ELs will be recognised.
Given the current renaissance in Victorian gold exploration, the Company looks forward with great interest to the Petratherm’s exploration activities on this project.

ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 08 July 2020
Petratherm executes Glenfine Gold Project (Victoria) Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement
Highlights
-
Petratherm has entered into an agreement to acquire up to an 80% interest, with further provisions to potentially acquire a 100% interest in the Glenfine Gold Project, in the central Victorian Goldfields, close to the world class Ballarat (13.1 Moz) and Berringa (1.0 Moz) goldfields.
-
The Glenfine area has historic gold production of approximately 400,000 oz.
-
The Glenfine Project is characterised by a large elongate basalt dome, the “Glenfine Dome’ where widely spaced drilling demonstrates gold mineralisation and alteration occurring over at least a 20kilometre trend and remains open to the north. It is considered to be in an analogous setting to the Cambrian Magdala Volcanic Dome which hosts the 5.2 M oz Stawell gold deposit.
-
In addition, significant, vein hosted “Ballarat Style” high-grade gold has been drilled at both the Glenfine and British Banner Prospects on the eastern side of the dome, with mineralisation remaining open along trend and at depth. Several other early stage gold prospects occur on the tenements.
-
Glenfine comprises 3 contiguous tenements (EL’s 5434, EL 5537 & EL 5344) totalling 96 km[2] . Most of the tenement area is under shallow cover and consequently only lightly explored.
Petratherm Limited (“Petratherm” or “the Company”) (ASX: PTR) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement with, Cape Clear Minerals Pty Ltd (CCM) and Predictive Discovery Ltd (ASX: PDI) on their Glenfine Gold Project, which demonstrates potential for both Stawell-Style (basalt dome hosted) gold mineralisation and Ballarat-Style (vein hosted) gold mineralisation. The Glenfine Project is located 25 kilometres southwest of Ballarat and comprises 3 contiguous tenements (EL’s 5434, EL 5537 & EL 5344) totalling 96 km[2 ] (Figure 1).
Significant deep lead and hard rock gold production has been documented from the tenements, and the surrounding area has been one of the largest gold-producing regions of Victoria. There are numerous gold occurrences at Glenfine, historically known as the Pitfield Plains Goldfield (Figure 1). The goldfield has an estimated combined historical gold production of approximately 400,000oz from alluvial, deep lead and hard rock mining. The most significant hard-rock production on the tenements came from the Glenfine South Mine

where 43,693 oz of gold were reported mined between 1899 and 1907 (source: Victorian Geological Survey Report No 94).
Stawell Style Gold
The Glenfine project covers a 30-kilometre section of the crustal scale, west dipping Avoca Fault that separates the Stawell Zone in the west from the Ballarat-Bendigo Zone in the east. It is considered to provide a fluid conduit for extensive gold mineralisation hosted in the subjacent rock sequences. In this region along the margin of the fault is a large (+20km long) elongate basalt dome structure, the ‘Glenfine Dome’ and is considered to be in an analogous setting to the Cambrian Magdala Volcanic Dome, which hosts the Stawell gold deposits (5.2 Moz), adjacent to the crustal scale west dipping Coongee Fault at Stawell in western Victoria.
Recent historical air-core drilling and follow-up diamond drilling has defined extensive gold mineralisation on the basalt - sediment interface zone along the eastern and western flanks of the Glenfine Dome, occurring over at least 20 kilometres of total strike length when both sides of the dome edge are considered, and it remains open to the north (Figure 2). The dome is under shallow younger cover however as the basalt has high specific density, detailed gravity surveying clearly defines its extent (Figure 2).
Historical hard rock mining mainly exploited vein-hosted mineralisation, however there is evidence of gold mineralisation mined from the margins of the Glenfine Dome as well. This speaks to a high potential for undiscovered economic deposits of bedrock gold in both styles.

Ballarat Style Gold
In addition to the regional basalt dome drill testing, high-grade quartz reef gold drill intercepts have been returned from the Glenfine and British Banner Prospect Areas (Figure 2) located on the east side of the basalt. The gold mineralisation at both prospects are open along strike and at depth. At Glenfine, the drilling reported herein, is a vein discovery termed the Glenfine Reef 2, which occurs immediately south of the main historic workings along trend with known mineralisation. The mineralisation occurs as singular or multiple quartz reefs and is interpreted to be akin to conventional central Victorian or “Ballarat Style” quartz reef coarse gold with pyrite-arsenopyrite-galena-sphalerite mineralisation (Photo 1). Significant carbonate-chlorite alteration haloes up to 20m wide also surround the mineralised zones.

Joint Venture Terms
The key terms of the Farm-in and Joint Agreement whereby Petratherm may acquire up to an 80% interest, with further provision to earn 100% interest in the tenements are presented below.
-
Condition Precedent – The Agreement and its obligations are subject to PTR being satisfied in respect of the tenements within a 21-day due diligence period.
-
Stage 1 - PTR may earn a 51% interest by spending a total of $1,000,000 on exploration within a 3- year period, of which at least $100,000 must be spent within the first 12 months.
-
Stage 2 - PTR may earn an additional 29% interest (for a total of 80% interest) by spending a further $2,000,000 on exploration within an additional 2.5-year period.
-
Once PTR have earned an 80% interest the parties can elect to contribute their equity share or dilute following a standard industry formula.
-
If CCM/PDI interest reduces to 10% or less, this will constitute a notice of withdrawal and PTR will acquire 100% interest in the tenements and CCM/PDI shall be entitled to receive a 1 % Net Smelter Royalty in respect of all minerals produced from the Joint Venture Area.

Next Steps
The Glenfine Project has considerable scope for the discovery of significant concealed gold resources. The primary target for the project is “Stawell Style” gold mineralisation under cover along the margins of the Glenfine Dome. The dome margins remain largely un-explored and will form an initial focus for future drilling.
A second target akin to conventional central Victorian or “Ballarat Style” quartz reef coarse gold is also evident from drilling and Glenfine and British Banner Prospects on the east flank of the Glenfine Basalt Dome. These high-grade gold intercepts remain open along trend and at depth. Other un-discovered reef shoots are likely to be present along these mineralised structural trends requiring step out exploration.
Initial technical works will involve a detailed review of the drilling data including re-logging and appraisal of the extensive drill core to produce 3D structural models of the gold zones to aid future drill targeting. Once the Company has completed this work, further Prospect details and the ground exploration work program will be provided. Glenfine offers the opportunity to rapidly confirm several ‘walk-up’ drilling targets testing both Stawell-style and Ballarat-style gold mineralisation.
