INTRODUCTION

PDI’s principal focus is in the countries of Cote D’Ivoire and Burkina Faso in West Africa.

In Cote D’Ivoire, the Company has interests in six granted exploration permits and two permit applications, totalling 2,936km[2] (Figure 1), which are being actively explored under the terms of a joint venture with Toro Gold Limited. PDI is also conducting exploration under an agreement on the Bobosso Project, which covers a further 1,200km[2] (Figure 1).

In Burkina Faso, the Company has an effective Burkina-based team and a large regional tenement package in the north-east of the country covering 1,222km[2] (Figure 6). PDI’s exploration focus is on the high-grade Bongou gold discovery and the surrounding area. A formal Mineral Resource Estimate on Bongou resulted in 184,000oz of gold in the Inferred and Indicated Mineral Resource categories with an average grade of 2.6g/t Au, including 136,000oz at 3.8g/t Au (ASX release dated 4/9/14).

PDI also holds an Exploration Licence in Victoria (Figure 7) which was drilled in the December and March Quarters by joint venture partner, Cape Clear Minerals Pty Ltd.

Predictive’s current strategy is to maintain a high level of exploration activity on all of its projects through project-level funding – either via joint ventures or direct cash investments into private companies which hold the Company’s ground. The Toro and Cape Clear Joint Ventures are operating well and generating significant newsflow. The Company’s focus in 2016 is to obtain project-level funding on the Bonsiega Project in Burkina Faso and the Bobosso Project in Cote D’Ivoire.

PROJECTS

CÔTE D’IVOIRE

CÔTE D’IVOIRE BACKGROUND

Predictive has been increasingly focused on Cote D’Ivoire in recent years. The country covers over a third of the highly prospective Birimian gold belt, more than any other country in West Africa. Cote D’Ivoire is highly underexplored for gold because the exploration investment boom in the last decade largely bypassed the country because of political instability. Since the accession of President Alassane Ouattara in 2011 and his comfortable re-election last year, and with investment certainty provided by an updated Mining Act and a forward-looking Mines Administration, Cote D’Ivoire has become a highly attractive exploration investment destination.

Predictive is in joint venture with Toro Gold Limited ( Toro ), a UK-based company, on six granted permits and two permit applications in Cote D’Ivoire and with XMI SARL, an Ivoirian company, on two additional permits and one permit application covering the Bobosso Project (Figure 1). The Toro Joint Venture operates through Predictive Discovery Limited’s subsidiary, Predictive Cote

TORO GOLD JV

Boundiali Exploration Permit

The Boundiali permit is located within a very well mineralised greenstone belt which contains the large operating Tongon and Syama gold mines in Cote D’Ivoire and Mali respectively (Figure 1). The southern part of this belt has had little exploration to date and represents a first class opportunity to make new large gold discoveries.

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

Predictive was granted the Boundiali permit in January 2014. The Company’s first exploration program on the permit was a BLEG stream sediment survey (ASX release dated 4/8/14) which discovered a series of strong stream sediment anomalies, the best of which, a 24ppb Au anomaly, lies downstream of the new gold mineralised zone discovered in the recent drilling.

Boundiali Drilling Program (Nyangboue Prospect)

The RC drilling program on the Boundiali permit consisted of 92 RC holes totalling 5,496m. The program was designed to test a 2km long zone of strong and coherent gold-in-soil anomalies (Figure 2). These lie at the southern end of the Nyangboue Prospect, a 6km long gold-in-soil anomaly (Figure 4) first reported to the ASX on 20/10/15.

Gold geochemical contours are superimposed on satellite imagery.

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

The RC holes were drilled:

  • on eight east-west oriented lines, of which six are spaced 320m apart. The northernmost and southernmost lines are 160m from their neighbours (Figure 2). Hole collars are approximately 40m apart,

  • mostly to depths of 50-60m, with the exceptions of holes BRC003-007 which were extended or re-drilled to between 117m and 130m depth,

  • towards the west and angled at 50 degrees.

Additional details of the drill and assay methodologies employed in this program are reported in Table 1.

Figure 3: Cross-section through the first drilled cross section. Assay results from the BRC004 redrill are

shown.

Initial observations from logging these drill holes and mapping the limited rock exposures at surface are as follows:

  • The mineralised zone appears to lie within a large and complex ductile shear zone containing:

  • Quartz-sericite schists which are interpreted to be derived from volcanosedimentary rocks,

  • granitic intrusives,

  • sediments,

  • felsic volcanics with quartz phenocrysts,

  • possible mylonites (extremely strongly sheared rocks) and

  • possible mafic volcanics.

  • Sparse rock outcrops indicate that shearing dips steeply to the east, which is why holes were drilled towards the west.

  • Gold values are generally associated with zones of quartz veining (1-2cm veinlets - both smoky grey quartz and white quartz.

  • Visible gold has been panned from some of the RC drill chips and fines. Follow-up screen fire assays on intervals with high gold grades and/or visible gold are therefore planned.

  • The dip and dip direction of the mineralisation is not yet fully understood.

  • The sheared rock sequence contains minor sulphides, including pyrite, pyrrhotite and arsenopyrite.

Results in grade intervals are shown for all of Toro soil results to date. The large Nyangboue Prospect gold anomaly and two other coherent gold anomalies are highlighted on this map. Rock chip sample locations are shown as small black triangles.

Kokoumbo Exploration Permit

Predictive CI is earning a 90% interest in the Kokumbo exploration permit in southern Cote D’Ivoire from an Ivoirian company, Ivoir Negoce. The Kokumbo permit covers an area of historic artisanal and French colonial era mining located in a highly prospective belt of rocks which also includes the Bonikro gold mine, currently in production by Newcrest, and Agbaou gold mine, where Endeavour Mining commenced commercial production in January 2014 (Figure 1).

Work commenced on re-processing historic aeromagnetic data during the Quarter.

GIV Agreement Projects

Beriaboukro Geochemical Sampling Program

Toro Gold carried out a soil sampling program covering most of Beriaboukro permit on 800m spaced lines. Samples were collected 100m apart on each line but only every other sample was submitted for analysis, resulting in a reported station spacing of 800m x 200m. Nine rock chip samples were also collected.

1,787 soil samples were analysed for gold by fire assay at the ALS laboratory at Loughrea in Ireland. Additional details of the sampling methods are provided in Table 2.

Anomalous gold values (>20ppb Au) were found in numerous locations throughout the grid (Figure 5). Three clusters of anomalous gold-in-soil results are highlighted on Figure 5. Peak goldin-soil values of 879ppb Au (0.9g/t) and 811 ppb Au (0.8g/t Au) were recorded from the Western and SE gold anomalous zones (Figure 5) respectively. Given the 800 x 200m assayed sample spacing, these are very encouraging soil results. A 1 km long gold ore deposit could be represented by a single value anomaly on such a wide spaced grid.

Rock chip sampling at the Ndinguinan artisanal gold mining site obtained a cluster of encouraging values including an exceptionally high 726g/t gold assay (Figure 1). Other high grade rock chip values from the same location included 13.15g/t Au and 6.40g/t Au. A tabulation of all the results is as follows and further details are provided in Table 2.

Ferkessedougou North Permit

Extensive soil sampling and geological mapping programs were carried out during the September Quarter. Results are awaited.

September Quarter Work Program

The December Quarter program will include the following:

  • Induced polarisation and ground magnetic surveys over the Nyangboue Prospect.

  • Re-interpretation of the Boundiali mineralised system based on the results of re-logging all the RC holes, the new ground geophysical data and Toro’s geological mapping, all in anticipation of a planned diamond drilling program.

  • Re-interpretation of the Kokoumbo permit geology based on re-processed historic airborne magnetic data, possibly followed by ground geophysical surveys.

  • Infill soil sampling on the Ferkessedougou North and Beriaboukro permits.

Results from the Ferkessedougou North soil sampling program will also be reported during the Quarter.

BOBOSSO PROJECT, COTE D’IVOIRE

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] ).

The Company is earning equity in the project through a joint venture with local licence holder, XMI SARL. Predictive currently holds approximately 35% equity in the project.

Previous exploration by Equigold, Lihir and Newcrest including a series of large drilling programs totalling 569 RC holes and 11 diamond drill holes has revealed a large gold mineralised system at the Bobosso project.

Metallurgical Testwork

The Company undertook preliminary gravity metallurgical testwork of colluvial material derived from pitting in a small area within the 7km[2] gold-in-soil anomaly which overlies the known Bobosso gold mineralised system. This work was carried out to determine if there is potential for recovering gold from this large area of gold-bearing colluvium as a first stage in a mining development that would also extract gold from the underlying gold mineralisation.

The testwork was carried out by Mineral Project Consultants (MPC) at ALS laboratories in Perth and demonstrated the potential for recovery of free gold from three composite samples. A single pass test through a Falcon centrifugal concentrator upgraded the samples from an average grade of 0.41g/t Au to 6.24g/t Au with a recovery of 63% and a mass pull of 8%. MPC advises that, if higher grade material is available, recoveries might be improved through an optimised two stage Gravity Recoverable Gold (GRG) program as a majority of the gold (75%) reported to the coarser (plus 75 micron) fraction during the screened fire assay. The gold-bearing gravity concentrate showed good leach kinetics, recovering 93% of the gold into cyanide solution.

BURKINA FASO

The Company’s tenement holding covers 1,222km[2] including approximately 100km of strike length in the Samira Hill greenstone belt in eastern Burkina Faso (the Bonsiega permit group, Figure 6). This belt hosts the 2.5 million ounce Samira Hill gold deposit across the border in Niger and contains numerous active artisanal gold mine sites along its length. PDI owns 100%, or has the rights to earn 95% to 100% of all its permits in Burkina Faso.

PDI has discovered gold mineralisation on multiple prospects in Eastern Burkina Faso during the past four years including the Bongou gold deposit. A formal Mineral Resource Estimate on Bongou resulted in 184,000oz of gold in the Inferred and Indicated Mineral Resource categories with an average grade of 2.6g/t Au, including 136,000oz at 3.8g/t Au (ASX release dated 4 September, 2014).

No work was carried out in Burkina Faso during the June Quarter apart from field visits to the project areas with potential joint venture partners. Costs are being restricted to the maximum extent possible.

The Company conducted is currently engaged in discussions about a possible joint venture on the Bonsiega Project.

AUSTRALIA

CAPE CLEAR JOINT VENTURE (EL5434)

Introduction

Exploration Licence 5434 is located west of Ballarat in Victoria (Figure 10). It was granted to PDI in July 2013. The area is highly prospective for shallowly concealed Stawell-style gold mineralisation. PDI previously carried out geological mapping and a gravity survey over part of the EL area.

11

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

Execution of a binding farm-in agreement with Cape Clear Minerals Pty Ltd (CCM) on this EL was announced to the ASX on 22[nd] September 2014. Under that agreement, CCM could earn 75% equity in the licence by spending $500,000 on exploration, including at least 1,000m of drilling. CCM has complied with those conditions and has therefore achieved a 75% equity in the project.

==> picture [340 x 310] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 7: Cape Clear Exploration Licence Locality Plan

Exploration on EL5434 is targeted at discovery of Stawell-style and/or Ballarat-style gold mineralisation on the margins of a concealed Cambrian basalt ridge located on the west side of the major north-south striking Avoca Fault. The Stawell gold deposit is located in a comparable geological position on the western side of a basalt ridge, which is, in turn, west of the major Coongee Fault.

No fieldwork was undertaken during the Quarter.

Predictive and CCM commenced a revision of the joint venture arrangements such that Predictive would participate in exploration of the northern portion of EL5434, which PDI regards as being more prospective, and CCM would explore the southern portion in its own right. Discussions regarding the terms of the revised joint venture agreement are ongoing.

Sampling
Technique
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
downhole 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
detailedinformation.
All of the sampling described in Table 1 refers to RC drill holes.
A representative subsample of the RC drill chips was obtained using an on-
rig riffle splitter. A second reference sample was obtained using a spear.
The assayed drill samples are judged to be representative of the rock being
drilled because representative sub-sampling of the RC drill samples was
achieved.
Drilling 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, bywhatmethod, etc).
The drilling was largely carried out by reverse circulation with a face sampling
hammer. The holes were collared using a blade bit, which was used to refusal
(towards base of saprolite/saprock).

assessing core and chip

Whether a relationship exists
between sample recovery and
grade and whether sample
bias may have occurred due
to preferential loss/gain of

RC recovery was assessed by weighing the sample bags and calculating
recoveries using an estimate of rock density. The Toro site geologists report that
recoveries are consistently good.

No judgement has yet been made by independent qualified consultants on
whether the geological and geotechnical logging has been sufficient to support
Mineral Resource estimation, mining and metallurgical studies.

and whether acceptable levels
of accuracy (ie lack of bias)
and precision have been
established.
All samples reported in this release were assayed for gold by 50g fire assay at
the ALS laboratory in Loughrea. High grade samples were checked at the
laboratory by gravimetric means.
At the lab, regular assay repeats, lab standards, checks and blanks were
inserted and analysed.
Unlabelled standards (Certified Reference Materials), blanks and duplicate
samples were also inserted by Toro personnel on site at Boundiali.
Samples are prepared at Toro’s sample preparation laboratory at Mako in

The collar RL of BRC004 was adjusted downwards by approximately 6m on the
cross-section only (i.e. not in Table 1 above) based on a GPS reading on the
BRC004 re-drill collar RL and the fact that the section line in this area is, by
observation, flat.

The holes reported here were drilled on one line with hole collars
approximately 40m apart.

sampling achieves unbiased
sampling of possible
structures and the extent to
which this is known,

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.
All drill holes reported here were drilled approximately at right angles to the
anticipated strike of the target geochemical anomaly (Figure 2).
Sample Security The measures taken to ensure
sample security
The drill samples are currently stored securely at Toro Gold’s compound in
the town of Boundiali.
Audits or Reviews The results of any audits or

Drill Hole
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:

easting and northing of
the drill hole collar

elevation or RL (Reduced
Level – elevation above
sea level in metres) of the
drill hole collar

dip and azimuth of the hole

down hole length and
interception depth

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 of the required data is provided in Table 1 (above).
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.
All RC samples were collected 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 not been estimated as the geological controls on
mineralisation in these initial drill holes into the prospect are not yet well
understood.
The holes were drilled from east to west to test a steeply east dipping
foliation in the limited rock exposures seen in the area. The mineralisation
lies within what Toro interprets to be a ductile shear zone which would
suggest that mineralisation should lie parallel to foliation. Nevertheless, the
gold intercepts are actually suggestive of a west-dipping mineralised
envelop. The most mineralised holes have been extended; assays of the
deepened holes should provide some additional information on this
question along with careful re-logging and XRF readings on the RC chip
samples in the coming months. True widths may only be understood
properly after a diamond drilling program is carried out, possibly later in
2016.
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections
(with scales) and tabulations of
intercepts should be included
for anysignificant discovery
An appropriate plan and cross section showing the location of the drill
holes are included in the text of this document.

Balanced Reporting Where comprehensive All intercepts containing grades above 0.5g/t Au and at least 1g/t x m reporting of all Exploration with a maximum thickness of internal waste of 3.0m are reported in this Results is not practicable, release. representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.

were then sent to the ALS laboratory in Loughrea in Ireland for fire assay analysis. RL ranges for the Beriaboukro permit are not known but range upwards from approximately 360m. Individual RLs are not reported in this announcement because they are not relevant to interpreting geochemical data of this type. The nine rock chip samples reported here were mostly collected from in the vicinity of several, gold artisanal mine sites.

Logging Whether core and chip samples have
been geologically and geotechnical
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/Trench, channel, etc)
photography.
The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections logged.
Soil samples are described in terms of soil type, regolith and
landscape classification and colour. Descriptions are largely
qualitative.
Rock sample descriptions and contextual information are provided
in the text of this release.
Sub-Sampling
Technique 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 beingsampled.
The sample preparation method is appropriate and standard for soil
samples of this type.
All of the rock samples were submitted for analysis and were
crushed, pulverised and sub-sampled in accordance with standard
laboratory procedures.
Quality of Assay Data
and Laboratory 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.
The analytical method used for soil sampling has a very low (1ppb
Au) detection limit which is appropriate for samples of this type.
A standard gold fire assay method was used for the rock chip
samples.
Verification of
Sampling and
Assaying
The verification of significant
intersections by either independent or
alternative company personnel.
The use of twinned holes The
verification of significant intersections
by either independent or alternative
company personnel. Discuss any
adjustment to assay data
This is not relevant to a soil or rock sampling program.
Location of Data points Accuracy and quality of surveysused
tolocate drill holes (collar and down-
hole surveys), trenches, mine workings
and other locations used in Mineral
Resource estimation.

control
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
The soil sampling grid was 800 x 200m and is considered
appropriate for a reconnaissance exploration grid of this
type.
Rock chip samples were not taken on a regular grid but were
collected in the vicinity of artisanal mine sites.
No Mineral Resource can be estimated from these data.
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.
The soil samples were collected along lines which were
designed to cross cut the interpreted bedding and foliation
strike orientations in permit.
Sample Security The measures taken to ensure sample
security
Samples are stored securely at Toro Gold’s field office in
Yamoussoukro.
Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results
Mineral Tenement and
Land Tenure Status
Type, reference name/number, location
and ownership including agreements or
material issues with third partiessuch
asjoint ventures, partnerships,
overriding royalties, native title
interests, historical sites, wilderness or
national park and environmental
settings.
The security of the tenure held at the
time of reporting along with any known
impediments to obtaining a licence to
operate in the area.
The Beriaboukro exploration permit was granted to GIV
Minerals SARL in 2015. Predictive Discovery Cote D’Ivoire
SARL may earn a 51% interest by spendingUS$1 million and
85% by completing a DFS.
Exploration Done by
Other Parties
Acknowledgment and appraisal of
exploration by other parties.
Gold exploration was conducted over a small part of the
Beriaboukro permit by Equigold.
Geology Deposit type, geological setting and
style of mineralisation.
The geology of the Beriaboukro permit consists of granite,
metasediments,mafic volcanics and intrusives.
Drill Hole 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:

easting and northing of the drill
hole collar

elevation or RL (Reduced Level –
elevation above sea level in
metres) of the drill hole collar

dip and azimuth of the hole

down hole length and interception
depth

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.
This is not relevant to a soil or rock sampling program.. Sample
coordinate information is provided in Table 1 and on the maps
included in this release.
Data Aggregation
Methods
In reporting Exploration Results,
weighting averaging techniques,

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.
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’).
This is not relevant to a soil or rock sampling program.
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.
An appropriate plan showing the locations of the soil and
rock samples, classified by results, are shown 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
reportingof Exploration Results.
Results from all assayed soil and rock chip samples have
been 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.
All relevant, new exploration data is reported in this release.
Further Work The nature and scale of planned further
work (eg tests for lateral 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 commerciallysensitive.


Follow-up infill soil sampling is planned on the permit as
outlined in this release.
