  • Search underway for a project to secure the Company’s future.

Capital Raising

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company commenced a capital raising process to raise a total of $350,000, of which $250,000 has been received and $100,000 is subject to shareholder approval. Proceeds from the capital raisings, after deduction of the costs, will be applied to the search for a new project and working capital.

Corporate

During the quarter, Mr. Evan Cranston was appointed as Chairman following the resignation of Mr. Nathan Featherby. Mr. Scott Patrizi was appointed as Non‐Executive Director.

Exploration

The Board is focused on securing a new project opportunity for Clancy. It has an active identification and assessment process underway, with several interesting opportunities under consideration, though no suitable opportunities have been advanced to date.

Clancy Exploration Limited (ASX: CLY)

Quarterly Activities Report for period ending 30 September 2016

Orange East EL8442

(NSW, Clancy 100%; Alkane Resources Ltd, earning 60% and funding 100%)

Orange East is located 15km ESE of the city of Orange and contains several target styles including Ordovician porphyry copper‐gold and post‐Ordovician copper‐gold targets. Numerous old workings occur in the area and many are focused along the regional scale Godolphin Fault. Previous work by Clancy defined a soil anomaly at the Gunnarbee prospect, which has similar geochemical, structural and geological characteristics as the nearby McPhillamys gold deposit, 15km along strike to the south (Figure 1).

Alkane Resources Ltd (Alkane; ASX: ALK) can earn a 60% interest in the Orange East project by spending $500,000 on exploration over three years. Alkane can earn a further 20% interest (80% total) by spending an additional $500,000 on exploration over the subsequent three years. Alkane is managing the exploration program. The exploration licence (EL8442) was granted on 11 May 2016. The project was inactive during the quarter.

Trundle EL8222

(NSW, Clancy 100%)

The Trundle project consists of a single exploration licence EL8222 located 25km west of the Northparkes copper‐gold mine. There is extensive evidence of porphyry and skarn‐style copper‐gold mineralisation similar to the Cadia Valley and Northparkes. Following the withdrawal of High Power Exploration Inc in the March quarter, Clancy is seeking a partner for the Trundle project.

Condobolin EL7748

(NSW, Clancy 100%)

Condobolin EL7399 is located in the central west of NSW immediately north of the Condobolin township. 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, arsenopyrite and free gold. Following the withdrawal of Ramelius Resources Limited in the March quarter, Clancy is seeking a partner for the Condobolin project.

Fairholme EL6552 & EL6915

(NSW, Clancy 100%)

The Fairholme project is located in the Fairholme Igneous Complex 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 project was formerly a joint venture with Kaizen Discovery Inc (Kaizen). The Kaizen joint venture focused on the porphyry copper‐gold potential and a number of IP chargeability anomalies were drill tested with disappointing results. Other potential targets such as epithermal Cowal‐style gold systems and porphyry copper‐gold targets in areas where the IP survey did not penetrate into the basement due to conductive overburden, remain to be followed up. Following the withdrawal of Kaizen in the March quarter, Clancy is seeking a partner for the Fairholme project.

Quarterly Activities Report for period ending 30 September 2016

NSW Royalty Projects

(NSW, Clancy NSR)

Following the sale of joint venture interests to Gold Fields in February 2013, Clancy held 2.5% Net Smelter Return (NSR) royalties on Jemalong, Cowal East (Wyrra and Koobah), Myall, Parkes, Moorefield and Wellington North, subject to the tenement holder having the right at any time to purchase the NSR’s for A$20 million each (Buyout Right). NSRs on the Koobah and Jemalong projects were extinguished when Clancy regained the project areas in 2014 and 2015 respectively following the withdrawal of Gold Fields.

During the quarter, Clancy agreed with the current tenement holder of Myall, Parkes East, Moorefield and Wellington North (Modeling Resources Pty Limited) to reduce the NSR from 2.5% to 2% in return for removing the Buyout Right, but only in respect of any of the relevant tenements which the tenement holder is in turn able to joint venture to a specified incoming party. The Company has not yet been notified that the specified incoming party has joint ventured into any of the relevant tenements.

The NSR over the Wyrra project remains in place and is unaffected by the above changes.
