QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES and CASHFLOW REPORT For the period ending 30 September 2014

The Board of Clancy Exploration Limited is pleased to release its Quarterly Activities report for the period ending 30 September 2014.

Summary

  • Typhoon 3D IP survey completed at the Fairholme JV . Chargeable anomalies have been defined. Follow-up diamond drilling of defined targets is planned for December 2014.

  • The Fairholme joint venture partners were awarded a A$198,750 grant by the NSW government under the New Frontiers Co-operative Drilling program.

  • RC drilling was completed at the Cundumbul JV . Encouraging phyllic alteration has been intersected and assay results are pending.

  • Two new directors, Nathan Featherby and Evan Cranston, have been appointed to the board. James Macdonald has resigned as a director.

Exploration

Fairholme EL6552 and EL6915

(NSW, Clancy 51%; Kaizen Discovery Inc 49%, earning 65% and funding 100%)

The Fairholme project covers 172km[2] 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 porphyry copper-gold deposit (Newcrest).

The helicopter-borne magnetic survey completed in the previous quarter identified a northwest trending ovoid magnetic feature in the central part of EL6552, south of the Boundary prospect. This zone is interpreted to be a dilation zone favourable for the emplacement of porphyry intrusions (Figure 1).

A Typhoon 3D Induced Polarisation (IP) survey covering the porphyry-style prospects of Dungarvan, Gateway and Boundary was completed in August 2014 for a total acquisition of 424.6 line km of 3D time domain IP data. The major technical challenge in the survey was to measure IP responses below approximately 100 m of highly conductive cover. Extensive pre-survey modelling was used to generate a 3D survey plan that would minimise signal interference and provide deep penetration of current into the subsurface, resulting in extremely low noise levels and allowing systematic and reliable 3D mapping of the basement chargeability responses, despite strong signal attenuation by the conductive cover.

The 3D IP data collected in this survey were inverted jointly in 3D with the Typhoon gradient array IP data collected last year. The 3D inversion models were constrained by physical property measurements on drill core (density, porosity, chargeability, resistivity and remanent magnetism), which were also completed

during the quarter. Data processing and interpretation are currently being finalised, however preliminary results are highly encouraging. Several chargeable anomalies have been defined, including a large three-lobe basement chargeable anomaly coincident with the dilation zone described above (Figure 1). The chargeable anomaly could be mapping sulphide distribution associated with a porphyry-style system. This area has not been tested by previous drilling.

Anomaly ranking and drill target selection will be completed in early November 2014 and follow-up diamond drilling of defined targets is scheduled for December 2014. The joint venture partners were awarded a A$198,750 grant by the NSW government under the New Frontiers Co-operative Drilling program. These funds will contribute to the costs of the follow-up drilling. The New Frontiers funding encourages private exploration drilling in the search of mineral deposits in areas of NSW not fully explored using the latest technology.

Cundumbul EL6661 and EL7399

(NSW, Clancy 100%; Mitsubishi earning 49% and funding 100%)

The Cundumbul project covers 204.9km[2] 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.

Clancy Exploration Limited (ASX: CLY)

Quarterly Activities Report for period ending 30 September 2014

RC drilling (21 holes; 2,924m) was completed at the Mehruda Mo prospect and at the Andrews prospect. At the Mehruda Mo Prospect the drilling tested for the presence of a vertical alteration halo and mineralisation zonation. Intense silica-sericite-pyrite alteration was intersected, associated with a roughly N-S trending shear zone and gravity low anomalies. Mineralisation consists of pyrite, very minor chalcopyrite and molybdenite in quartz-carbonate veins. RC drilling at the Andrews prospect targeted coincident 3D IP and geochemical anomalies. The drilling was completed close to the end of the quarter and results are expected in late October 2014.

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 the Northparkes copper-gold mine. In the March quarter 2014, Clancy completed 18 out of a planned 55, reconnaissance air core (AC) drill holes to test three prospects. The program was curtailed prematurely due to unseasonable wet weather. Drilling is planned to recommence in the December 2014 quarter in order to complete the planned program.

Clancy Exploration Limited (ASX: CLY)

Quarterly Activities Report for period ending 30 September 2014

Corporate

As at 30 September 2014, the company held cash and restricted cash of $1,383,000.

Two new Non Executive Directors, Nathan Featherby and Evan Cranston, were appointed to the board effective 22 October 2014. Dr James Macdonald has resigned as a director of the Company.

The Clancy Board welcomes Nathan and Evan and looks forward to working closely with them in implementing its strategy of identifying and acquiring a more advanced flagship project to advance its business and deliver value to shareholders.

The Board would like to thank Dr James Macdonald for his contribution to Clancy over the past seven years. James was the founding Chairman of the Company upon its listing in 2007, before stepping into the role of Non-executive director in 2011.

In November 2013, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement with ABM Resources NL (ASX: ABU) (ABM) whereby Clancy will have the option to acquire 100% of ABM’s interests in the North Arunta Project Region in the Northern Territory. Due to the challenging state of the equity markets the required capital raising could not be completed and the transaction will not proceed.

Notes

  • 1 The quarterly report provides a basis for informing the market how the entity’s activities have been financed for the past quarter and the effect on its cash position. An entity wanting to disclose additional information is encouraged to do so, in a note or notes attached to this report.

  • 2 The “Nature of interest” (items 6.1 and 6.2) includes options in respect of interests in mining tenements acquired, exercised or lapsed during the reporting period. If the entity is involved in a joint venture agreement and there are conditions precedent which will change its percentage interest in a mining tenement, it should disclose the change of percentage interest and conditions precedent in the list required for items 6.1 and 6.2.

  • 3 Issued and quoted securities The issue price and amount paid up is not required in items 7.1 and 7.3 for fully paid securities .

  • 4 The definitions in, and provisions of, AASB 6: Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources and AASB 107: Statement of Cash Flows apply to this report.

  • 5 Accounting Standards ASX will accept, for example, the use of International Financial Reporting Standards for foreign entities. If the standards used do not address a topic, the Australian standard on that topic (if any) must be complied with.
