QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES and CASHFLOW REPORT For the period ending 30 September 2013
The Board of Clancy Exploration Limited is pleased to release its Quarterly Activities report for the period ending 30 September 2013.
Highlights
- Comprehensive review of the Condobolin project is in progress:
- o Low sulphidation epithermal system
- o Significant gold, silver, lead, zinc and copper drill intercepts across multiple prospects
- o Alteration and geochemical footprint of the system is 3km x 3km
- o Host rocks may be similar in age to the well mineralised Mineral Hill Volcanics
- Gradient array IP survey covering 74km2 completed at the Fairholme JV using HPX's proprietary IP system. Drill targets have been defined and drilling will commence in the December 2013 quarter.
- Gravity surveys completed at the Cundumbul JV and auger drilling is in progress. Modelling of magnetic and IP data has defined drill targets that will be tested in the December 2013 quarter.
Exploration
Condobolin EL7748
(NSW, Clancy 100%)
The Condobolin tenement is located in the central west of NSW immediately north of the Condobolin township. Condobolin has a substantial mining history as a gold and base metals field (lead, zinc and copper, as well as silver). The mineralisation is hosted in epithermal-style quartz veins and shear zones within metasedimentary units. The veins are associated with pyrite, sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite and gold.
A comprehensive review of all work completed at Condobolin is in progress and will continue into the December 2013 quarter. A follow-up work proposal will be completed in the December 2013 quarter. Significant findings to date have:
- o confirmed the presence of a low sulphidation epithermal system;
- o demonstrated that the mineralised system is polymetallic with significant drill intercepts in gold, silver, lead, zinc and copper across multiple prospects (see below);
- o determined that the alteration and geochemical footprint of the system is 3km x 3km;
- o identified that the system coincides with a ~20km diameter gravity anomaly which may be associated with a deep intrusive unit at the intersection of major regional faults; and
- o shown that the host of the mineralisation is a volcanic sandstone which may be equivalent to the well mineralised Mineral Hill Volcanics further to the north.
Significant previous drill results at the various Condobolin prospects include1 :

- Meritilga where a high-grade gold lens up to 5m true width remains open up and down dip and visible gold is present adjacent to historic workings:
- o 4m @ 20 g/t Au, 0.26% Cu, 30.2 g/t Ag from 75m;
- o 10m @ 5.78 g/t Au & 26.79 g/t Ag from 80m; and
- o 15m @ 2.76 g/t Au & 8.78 g/t Ag from 90m**.**
- Phoenix where gold and zinc intercepts are open to the south and down dip:
- o 8m @ 3.7 g/t Au from 59m;
- o 8m @ 3.73 g/t Au from 72m; and
- o 9m @ 1.35% Zn from 91m.
- Bluebell where narrow copper intercepts remain open in all directions:
- o 4m @ 0.51 g/t Au, 1.24% Cu from 105m; and
- o 4m @ 0.29g/t gold, 1.14% Cu from 98m.
- Potters where coarse grained zinc, lead and silver sulphide intercepts remain open in all directions: o 6m @ 2.7% Zn, 2.7% Pb, 30g/t Ag from 100m.
- Mascotte where zinc and gold intercepts are open in all directions however the geometry is poorly defined:
- o 4m @ 3.7% Zn, 1.3g/t Au, 12g/t Ag, 0.64% Pb from 76m.

Fairholme EL6552 and EL6915
(NSW, Clancy 100%; HPX earning 49% and funding 100%)
The Fairholme project covers 172km2 of the Fairholme Igneous Complex and is located 12km north of the Cowal gold mine. The geophysical characteristics of the Fairholme Igneous Complex are similar to the Cowal Complex to the south, which hosts the Cowal gold mine (Barrick) and the Marsden copper-gold deposit (Newcrest). The presence of conductive cover over Fairholme has historically prevented effective geophysical imaging of the target sequence.
HPX successfully completed an IP survey over a 74km2 area using HPX's proprietary system. Data processing and inversion modelling has been completed by Computational Geosciences Inc in Vancouver. Several significant targets have been defined and follow-up drill testing will commence in the December 2013 quarter.

Cundumbul EL6661 and EL7399
(NSW, Clancy 100%; Mitsubishi earning 49% and funding 100%)
The Cundumbul project covers 204.9km2 of prospective arc units in the Molong Volcanic Belt between Molong and Wellington. There are numerous intrusive complexes at Cundumbul that have anomalous copper and/or gold associated with them.
During the quarter, gravity surveys were completed at the Bakers Swamp, Mehruda and Andrews prospects with data processing in progress at quarter end. Inversion modelling of magnetic and IP data collected in previous quarters has been completed. The models show that chargeable anomalies at Bakers Swamp and Mehruda coincide with magnetic lows, suggesting the presence of phyllic alteration (magnetite destruction). Other chargeable anomalies at these prospects are associated with magnetic highs indicative of hydrothermal magnetite. A mechanical auger drilling program is underway at the Mehruda and Andrews prospects with results anticipated in late October 2013. Follow-up RC drilling of targets is scheduled for the second half of the December 2013 quarter.
Genaren EL7927
(NSW, Clancy 100%; Mitsubishi earning 49% and funding 100%)
Genaren is located at the northern end of the Northparkes Igneous Complex 29km north of Rio Tinto's Northparkes copper-gold mine. A petrographic study on drill core collected in the previous quarter has confirmed the presence of Goonumbla-Wombin Volcanics equivalents (Northparkes host rocks) in the project area, however, definitive porphyry-style alteration has not been intersected in the drilling to date. A new structural / stratigraphic interpretation suggests that Wombin Volcanics may be present northwest of the area drilled to date. The Wombin Volcanics are the host for most of the Northparkes porphyry systems.
Further petrological studies are planned, which may shed further light on the structural / stratigraphic model. Follow-up fieldwork is currently planned for the March 2014 quarter.
Corporate
As at September 30 2013, the company held cash, restricted cash and marketable securities (at market value) of $2.76 million.
The Company updated its Securities Trading and other Corporate Governance policies during the quarter.
