Exploration
Trundle EL8222
(NSW, Clancy 100%; High Power Exploration Inc, earning 51%)
The Trundle project consists of a single exploration licence EL8222 located 25km west of the Northparkes copper-gold mine (Figure 4). There is extensive evidence of porphyry and skarn-style copper-gold mineralisation similar to the Cadia Valley and Northparkes. Several prospects at Trundle have strong similarities to the porphyry deposits at Northparkes, with characteristic magnetic and gravity anomalies and coincident anomalous copper and gold geochemistry. There is significant potential for porphyry copper-gold discovery at depth and numerous copper-gold anomalies on the Trundle licence remain under-explored.
A 38km2 Typhoon IP survey was completed in August covering a prospective zone of magnetic anomalies extending from Trundle Park area in the south to north of Mordialloc (Figure 1). The aim of the survey was to detect chargeable bodies at depth to assist with defining the deeper source of the copper-gold anomalism and vectoring to the richer potassic core of a porphyry system. The survey was configured as a perpendicular pole-dipole array to minimise electromagnetic coupling. A total of 496 line km of IP data were collected on a nominal 300m NS by 100m EW receiver dipole spacing. Wet weather impacted field production and the survey area had to be reduced from ~50km2 to 38km2 .
Two encouraging zones of broad anomalous chargeability have been defined in the Trundle Park and Mordialloc areas (Figure 2). The Mordialloc anomaly is the largest (4x2km) and extends to a depth of at least 500m vertical. It has an eastern and western lobe with the highest overall chargeabilities in the eastern lobe, which has been selected for follow-up drilling and is referred to here as the Mordialloc NE target. The western lobe encompasses a chargeable anomaly defined by a smaller, conventional 3D IP survey conducted by Clancy in 20101 . A previous diamond drill hole (CTD006) on the periphery of 3D IP anomaly intersected 48m @ 0.15%Cu, 0.12g/t Au, 41ppm Mo from 478m in a quartz monzonite porphyry with quartz-pyrite veining1 . In contrast, the Mordialloc NE target has not been effectively tested by previous drilling. It is a chargeable anomaly with a dimension of 1.7km x 1km at about 475m vertical depth and the chargeable zone extends close to surface (Figure 3).

1 See ASX release dated 18 June 2010 for further details
A number of aircore holes drilled by previous explorers cover the Mordialloc NE target however the deepest of these holes is only 18m, which is an ineffective test of the target given the depth to which the chargeable zone extends. Two of the shallow holes intersected anomalous Cu in andesite in bottom of hole samples from 3m depth: TR452 – 1m @ 3,152ppm Cu and TR455 – 1m @ 785ppm Cu (Figure 3). Neither of these holes was followed up. Previous exploration was focussed 1km to the west of the Mordialloc NE target, on historic copper-gold workings associated with the numerous skarns. The Mordialloc NE target is therefore a completely new target.

Figure 2 – Typhoon IP chargeability at Trundle at ~475m below surface (translucent colour) over the aerial photograph. Broad zones of anomalous chargeability have been defined at Mordialloc and Trundle Park. The relatively low zone chargeability in the centre of the survey area is associated with a drainage basin marked by the arrows.

Figure 3 – Typhoon IP chargeability at Mordialloc at ~475m below surface (translucent colour) over the aerial photograph.The Mordialloc NE target is outlined in white. A selection of previous drill holes are shown (black dots) and holes mentioned in the text are labelled. The deepest hole over the Mordialloc NE target is only 18m. See Figure 2 for chargeability scale.
Further modelling of the geophysical data for the Mordialloc NE target is underway to optimise drill targeting and it is anticipated that diamond drilling will commence in December.
The Trundle Park chargeability anomaly is a NE-trending zone approximately 2.7km long and 1km wide (Figure 2). It too is associated with skarn occurrences and old workings but has been partly tested by previous drilling. Further work is required to define a follow-up strategy for Trundle Park. The Mordialloc NE target will be the initial priority. The Trundle Park and Mordialloc chargeable anomalies are separated by a broadly EW-trending local drainage basin that drains to the west through the Trundle township (Figure 2). The basin has relatively high surface conductivity and therefore electrical signal from the basement was attenuated, resulting in much lower chargeability within the basin. It is likely that this area has not been adequately tested by the Typhoon survey.
Condobolin EL7748
(NSW, Clancy 100%; Ramelius Resources Ltd, earning 80% and funding 100%)
Condobolin EL7399 is located in the central west of NSW immediately north of the Condobolin township (Figure 4). Condobolin has a substantial mining history, predominantly as a base metals field (lead, zinc and copper), as well as gold. The mineralisation is hosted in epithermal-style quartz veins within the metasedimentary units of the Ordovician Girilambone Group, associated with pyrite, sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite, arsenopryrite and free gold.

Figure 4 – Map showing location of Clancy projects in central NSW.
A 3D IP survey was completed to extend the previous IP survey coverage at Meritilga to the north. A total of 7.9km2 was surveyed. The aim of the survey was to further define basement structures associated with the numerous gold and base metal occurrences in the Condobolin Mineral Field. A number of chargeable anomalies have been defined that require follow-up. Detailed geological mapping is in progress and followup RC drilling is planned. Drilling will commence after the necessary permitting has been completed.
Corporate
As at 30 September 2015, the company held cash and restricted cash of $1,050,000.
During the quarter the Company received notice from Mitsubishi Materials Corporation (MMC) that it would not continue with formal joint ventures on the Cundumbul and Genaren projects, having met its A$3 million earn-in expenditure commitment over three years. Both of these projects have now reverted to 100% Clancy ownership.
