at 3.16g/t gold from 45.9m including 9m at 10.31g/t gold. Diamond drilling is scheduled to begin in November, 2020.

Boundiali

20km of gold-in-soil anomalies were recently tested by a 10,000m drilling program, including infill drilling at the 1.6km-long Nyangboue prospect where past drilling returned 20m at 10.5g/t gold and 30m at 8.3g/t gold. Exploration programs including drilling are expected to begin soon.

100%-owned new Bocanda North Permit, Cote D’Ivoire

Reconnaissance exploration will begin in the December Quarter, commencing with geological mapping and a BLEG stream sediment geochemical program.

100%-owned Guinea Projects

Kaninko

The exploration effort will accelerate at Kaninko over the next three months to follow up encouraging dump sample results. Work programs will include soil sampling, BLEG stream sediment sampling outside of the known mineralised areas, geological mapping, some additional dump sampling and trenching. A ground magnetics survey may also be undertaken. All this work is aimed at understanding the geology and narrowing down the most promising targets for a reconnaissance drilling program in the March Quarter, 2020.

Kankan

Follow-up infill geochemical sampling will be undertaken on the Kankan grid during the quarter, commencing in the next 1-2 weeks. Ground magnetics to help define subsurface rock structure will also be carried out during the December Quarter to assist with targeting for the planned March Quarter drill program.

Nonta

A power auger drilling program to test the newly discovered soil anomalies will be carried out at Nonta, commencing in early December. Given sufficiently encouraging results from this work, drilling will also be planned at Nonta for the March Quarter .

1. PREDICTIVE DISCOVERY WEST AFRICAN PROJECTS, APPLICATIONS & INTERESTS

With exposure to over 6,000km[2] of highly prospective ground on the West African Birimian greenstone belts of Guinea, Cote d’Ivoire and Burkina Faso, Predictive is focused on both its 100% owned and Joint Venture gold projects.

PDI’s has a pipeline of early stage exploration opportunities, including partnering with experienced and respected companies to fund ongoing exploration and leveraging their expertise to realise shareholder value. The Company’s present intention is to advance to the drilling stage on one or more of its Guinea properties.

CHANNEL SAMPLING IDENTIFIES NEW GOLD AT KANINKO PROJECT IN GUINEA

The Company obtained 12 vertical channel samples from artisanal pits on the Kaninko Project. 7 samples were from artisanal workings in strongly weathered bedrock (saprolite) and returned an average value of 1.5g/t gold with a peak value recorded of 4.6g/t gold. The zone of saprolite exposure extends for 300m (Figure 3) in a north-easterly direction but extensive surrounding surficial (laterite) workings suggest that potential area of bedrock mineralisation may be much larger.

KANINKO – NEXT STEPS

Predictive’s team undertook detailed sampling of mine dumps during September, producing more encouraging results which were reported on 8 October 2019. In the December Quarter, additional dump sampling and a large soil grid will be completed, the latter over an area covering the three prospects which have been identified so far. BLEG stream sediment sampling outside of the known gold mineralised area will also be undertaken once stream levels have fallen sufficiently. Geological mapping of the new soil grid will also be carried out.

Reconnaissance mapping, artisanal mine sampling and BLEG stream sediment sampling will be undertaken on the new Kaninko North Reconnaissance Authorisation during the December Quarter.

ENCOURAGING EARLY SOIL SAMPLING RESULTS, NONTA PROJECT, GUINEA

The Company completed a soil sampling program at the Nonta Project in May 2019, with 446 samples collected on two grids – a reconnaissance 800m x 100m grid covering all of the gold-anomalous areas covered by the earlier BLEG survey and a tighter 100mm x 25m grid to test the “Nonta prospect”.

During the Quarter the Company released results from the soil sampling program which included a plus 5km-long anomalous zone (mostly 20-50ppb gold) oriented north-south with a peak value of 1250ppb gold (1.25 g/t gold) and a north-north-west oriented 400m-long zone, open to the north, with numerous elevated values (>50ppb gold) and a peak value of 325 ppb gold. This is coincident with the “Nonta prospect” from which earlier rock chip sampling obtained up to 29g/t gold

The soil sampling program identified two distinct areas for follow-up exploration - a plus 5km-long northsouth zone of anomalous gold (20-50ppb) on the broad spaced grid and a 400m-long north-northwest trending higher tenor zone on the tightly spaced grid (Figure 4); the latter remains open to the north. Both zones returned elevated gold values, including peak values of 1250ppm and 325ppb gold respectively.

Figure 5 - Nonta soil sampling grid, highlighting gold anomalies

Recent work has been focused on understanding the distribution of gold in the regolith profile using regolith mapping, re-sampling of anomalous sample sites, testing different size fractions to try and improve the repeatability of gold results and vertical channel sampling of an artisanal open pit working to determine gold variability from the surface to depth. Gold distribution appears to be quite variable (“nuggetty”) in the near surface indicating that follow-up regolith sampling should be carried out using a different method.

NONTA PROJECT – NEXT STEPS

A modest power auger drilling program, totalling approximately 1,000m, to follow up the new Nonta goldin-soil anomalies, is planned to start in early December.

LANDHOLDING GROWS IN GUINEA’S SIGUIRI BASIN

During the period the Company announced that it had been granted a new Reconnaissance Authorisation covering 100km[2] on the Kaninko Project near the town of Kouroussa in the Siguiri Basin, located in Guinea. The tenement is located approximately 10km from the Cassidy Gold Kouroussa gold deposit and has since been converted into an Exploration Permit.

Utilising the Company’s PredictoreTM system, the Kaninko area was highlighted by Predictive during its terrain-scale assessment of the Siguiri Basin in late 2018.

Grant of a second Reconnaissance Authorisation directly to the north of Kaninko was announced on 8 October 2019.

3. COTE D’IVOIRE – BOUNDIALI, BOUNDIALI NORTH, FERKESSEDOUGOU NORTH KOUNAHIRI, FERKESSEDOUGOU, KOKOUMBO, BOBOSSO AND BOCANDA NORTH PROJECTS & INTERESTS

Predictive has a ground position in Cote D’Ivoire of over 4,000km[2] with the country covering about one third of the world-class Birimian gold belt, more than any other country in West Africa. Core D’Ivoire remains largely underexplored for gold due to political instability which resulted in the exploration investment boom bypassing the country in the decade to 2012.

Predictive has a joint venture agreement with Resolute Mining Limited (ASX: RSG). It also has two permit applications and one granted permit in the name of its 100% subsidiary, Ivorian Resources SARL.

During the period, the Company announced significant results and planned activity on its Boundiali and Ferkessedougou North Projects (Figure 6).

PREDICTIVE WELCOMES RESOLUTE TO COTE D’IVOIRE JV

In August, Predictive welcomed Resolute Mining Limited (ASX: RSG) to its Cote D’Ivoire Joint Venture following RSG’s takeover of Toro Gold Limited (Toro) as announced on Wednesday 31 July, 2019. The current Toro Joint Venture covers 2,344km[2] in granted permits including the key gold exploration projects of Ferkessedougou North, Boundiali and Kokoumbo.

Ferkessedougou North and Boundiali have enjoyed recent drill success including 45.3m at 3.16g/t gold from Ferkessedougou North and 27m at 2.42g/t gold from Boundiali with new zones of gold mineralisation discovered on both projects. Resolute will hold a 70% stake in the joint venture with Predictive holding 30%.

BOUNDIALI NORTH DRILLING AND TRENCHING RESULTS

The Boundiali Project consists of two permits – Boundiali North and Boundiali South - which cover 29km of strike length within a very well-mineralised greenstone belt. The southern portion of the belt remains underexplored with a significant opportunity to discover new, large gold deposits.

Predictive’s first exploration program on the permit was a BLEG stream sediment survey in 2014 which discovered a series of gold stream sediment anomalies, the strongest of which was downstream of the Nyangboue prospect. Subsequent soil sampling by joint venture partner Toro Gold Limited in 2015-16 revealed the 6km-long Nyangboue gold geochemical anomaly.

A 2016 RC drilling program then identified gold mineralisation extending over at least 1.2km of strike in the southern part of the anomaly. In 2015 reconnaissance sampling across the permit resulted in the discovery of three drill targets, Nyangboue (a 6km-long soil anomaly), Nyangboue South (a 2.5 km-long soil anomaly) and Gbemou (a 3km long soil anomaly). Initial RC drilling in 2016/17 on the Nyangboue Prospect returned a series of excellent drill results including 30m at 8.3g/t gold from 39m and 28m at 4.04g/t gold from 3m.

In 2018 the Joint Venture undertook a soil geochemistry program comprising 6,338 samples on the Boundiali North permit, identifying a series of gold anomalies extending for 14km which are clustered around the inferred north-south Nyangboue structure which also passes through the Nyangboue gold mineralised zone further south. Higher gold values include 1,185, 806 and 626 ppb gold.

Following the soil sampling program, the Toro joint venture completed a 6,809m trenching program over the Boundiali North permit. In March 2019, an RC drill rig began work on an infill drilling program at Boundiali South (Nyangboue) and in April it was moved to Boundiali North where a substantial reconnaissance RC drill program was completed, testing targets identified from the trenching and soil geochemistry.

During the quarter, the Company announced results from A 91-hole reconnaissance Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program, totalling 6,229m, which was carried out in April and May 2019 on the Boundiali North permit as part of the 2019 Toro Joint Venture exploration program. The Company also announced assay results in August from the Boundiali South permit, from a 16-hole step-out drilling program completed in June, which completed infill drill testing of a 920m-long section of the Nyangboue gold mineralised zone.

BOUNDIALI NORTH – RC DRILLING

The Joint Venture completed a 91-hole (totalling 6,229m) reconnaissance RC drilling program, testing targets BN1 (Figure 1), BN2 (Figure 8,9) and BN3, which were identified from soil sampling in 2018 (Figure 5). Results received to date from the drilling have confirmed the discovery of primary gold mineralisation beneath BN1 and BN2 with some holes returning wide zones of lower grade mineralisation including multiple intercepts above 0.5g/t gold, the reported cutoff grade. The geology encountered was similar to Boundiali South (Nyangboue) including sandstones, siltstones, argillites and very minor granite. The depth of weathering is variable but averages approximately 40m. Results confirm the discovery of primary gold mineralisation beneath two of the soil anomalies so far, with better intersections including:

  • BNRC012 - 5m at 3.49g/t gold from 28m

  • BNRC014 - 7m at 1.43g/t gold from 18m

  • BNRC015 - 8m at 1.80g/t gold from 35m

  • BNRC016 - 3m at 6.61g/t gold from 45m

  • BNRC031 - 11m at 1.20g/t gold from 4m

  • BNRC031 - 30m at 1.08g/t gold from 32m

  • BNRC032 - 10m at 3.14g/t gold from 53m

  • BNRC032 - 32m at 1.46g/t gold from 80m

Drilling was completed on variable section spacings, typically between 160 and 320m, on selected areas. The RC holes were angled at -50° and typically drilled to 60m downhole. Some holes were drilled deeper with a maximum downhole depth of 120m (vertical depth 77m). The drill program was carried out by West Africanbased contractor Geodrill and drill samples were assayed by bottle roll cyanidation at Bureau Veritas in Abidjan. Gold mineralised intercepts obtained by this method will be re-assayed later by fire assay at ALS, Loughrea in Ireland. This may result in higher values as bottle roll cyanidation is a partial leach method.

BOUNDIALI NORTH – TRENCHING

During the quarter, the Joint Venture completed 22 trenches (totalling 6,809m) with the highest values recorded from zones coincident with soil anomalies BN1 (Figure 10) and BN2. As with the drilling, the trenches encountered broad zones of lower grade mineralisation containing multiple intercepts above 0.5g/t gold, the reported cut-off grade. Better results included:

  • BNTR002 - 2m at 4.96g/t gold

  • BNTR003A - 14m at 1.01g/t gold within a 162m long section averaging 0.42g/t gold

  • BNTR004 - 2m at 5.09g/t gold within a 60m long section averaging 0.48g/t gold

  • BNTR005 - 14m at 1.80g/t gold within a 34m long section averaging 0.92g/t gold

  • BNTR007 - 24m at 2.29g/t gold within a 58m long section averaging 1.10g/t gold

  • BNTR008 - 10m at 2.24g/t gold within a 66m long section averaging 0.50g/t gold

Page 13 of 22

The trenching program was designed to identify new targets in shallow mineralisation for follow up drill testing. The trenching will also assist in understanding the geometry of gold mineralisation reported from the most recent RC drilling program.

The widest zone of low-grade mineralisation was encountered in trench BNTRC003A (162m at 0.43g/t Au including 14m at 1.01g/t) and was terminated on a deep, artisanal open-pit gold working (Figure 8).

The trenches were dug to an average downhole depth of 2m. The trenching program was carried out using a backhoe and the samples were assayed by bottle roll cyanidation at Bureau Veritas in Abidjan.

BOUNDIALI SOUTH – INFILL DRILLING (NYANGBOUE PROSPECT)

During the period, additional results from the Company’s highly encouraging 31-hole (totalling 3,324m) infill RC drilling program at the Nyangboue Prospect were received. Numerous significant gold results were previously returned including good widths and high grades, including 27m at 2.42g/t gold (Figure 12). Multiple +1g/t gold intercepts were recorded in every hole and the mineralisation remains open at depth.

BOUNDIALI SOUTH – STEP-OUT DRILLING (NYANGBOUE PROSPECT)

The joint venture completed a 16-hole step-out program (totalling 1,874m) in June 2019 to follow-up the 31-hole infill RC drilling program completed in March-April. This new program extended infill drill coverage to approximately 920m of mineralised strike on the Nyangboue gold prospect (Figure 3). The RC holes were designed to explore for mineralisation both up-dip and down-dip of earlier intercepts and along strike of the earlier infill drill lines.

Reportable gold drill hole intersections are represented in Figures 13 and 14. The new drilling encountered broad zones of anomalous gold mineralisation with multiple gold higher-grade intercepts recorded. The geology encountered included conglomerates, sandstones, siltstones and shales. Depth of weathering averages approximately 40m.

The RC holes were angled at -60° and drilled to a maximum downhole depth of 192m (vertical depth 166m). The drill program was carried out by West African-based contractor Geodrill and the drill samples were

BOUNDIALI NEXT STEPS

The latest drill results have provided additional positive indications of the growing scale of the Boundiali gold mineralised systems. The joint venture is currently reviewing results of the March to June drilling campaign prior to deciding on next steps. More drilling is expected in the upcoming field season, which begins in the December Quarter.
