ASX ANNOUNCEMENT RED MOUNTAIN MINING LTD (ASX:RMX) 21 March 2014

==> picture [169 x 46] intentionally omitted <==

DRILLING DEFINES HIGH GRADE SOUTH WEST BRECCIA EXTENSION

  • Potential addition to the high-grade South West Breccia resource

  • Drilling now testing entire lode corridor from Japanese Tunnel to Trench 13 and beyond

Perth-based Red Mountain Mining is pleased to announce that drilling and previous trenching has defined an extension to the high-grade South West Breccia (SWB) mineralised zone on its Lobo mining permit (MPSA) within the Philippines based Batangas Gold Project ( Project ).

The SWB extension will be incorporated into a new Mineral Resource estimate for SWB (in accordance with JORC 2012), potentially adding at surface gold mineral resources to the mining inventory available for the proposed gold mining and processing development, the subject of the Scoping Study released 20 March 2014.

Cautionary Statement

The Scoping Study referred to in this announcement is based on lower-level technical and economic assessments, and is insufficient to support estimation of Ore Reserves or to provide assurance of an economic development case at this stage, or to provide certainty that the conclusions of the Scoping Study will be realised. There is a low level of geological confidence associated with inferred mineral resources (that represent 10% of the mining inventory in the Scoping Study) and there is no certainly that further exploration work will result in the determination of indicated mineral resources or that the production target itself will be realised. There is no certainty that the Scoping Study production targets or the forecast financial information derived from production targets, will be realised. All material assumptions underpinning the production targets and forecast financial information derived from the production targets, full details of which were released to ASX on 20 March 2014, continue to apply and have not materially changed.

A total of 14, shallow, triple-tubed diamond drill holes have now been completed during Phase 1 of the Company’s ongoing exploration drilling program, totaling 568 metres to date (see Figure 1 for locations).

Eight holes were completed at the SWB extension, with results including LB 93-14: 3.95m @ 4.6 g/t gold (Au) from surface including 0.75m @ 15.8 g/t Au and 0.5m @ 7.16 g/t Au, 15.3 g/t silver (Ag).

A high grade, outcropping, “wedge” of lode gold mineralisation, offset from the main SWB shoot (Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource 194,000t @ 7.2 g/t Au, JORC 2004) has now been defined at the SWB extension. Other results from this high grade wedge include Trench 19: 8.35m @ 18.3 g/t Au, and Trench 21: 6.0m @ 31.2 g/t Au and 1.75m @ 41 g/t Au (ASX release 12 February 2014), and LB 92-14: 1.5m @ 8.1 g/t Au including 0.5m @ 12 g/t Au (ASX release 25 February 2014), see Figure 2 cross section 10110N.

Red Mountain Managing Director Jon Dugdale said, “The key to the Batangas Project is that we have already demonstrated a low cost, early payback, gold project based on existing resources only. So any further resource upgrades, particularly high-grade at surface, may improve the potential financial outcomes of the Project.”

Figure 2: Cross Section Through South West Breccia Extended, with latest drilling results

Drilling has now commenced testing the entire SWB lode corridor from Japanese Tunnel to where the lode passes under shallow, younger, limestone southwest of Trench 13 (2.6m @ 28.6 g/t Au, released to ASX 7 January 2014). Planned drillhole pierce points are shown on longitudinal projection (see Figure 3) .

Initial results from soil sampling in progress to the southwest of Trench 13 are encouraging and indicate an anomalous trend, partly over younger limestone, extending towards previous high grade surface float sample results at Signal prospect including 72.6 g/t Au and 42.6 g/t Au (see Figure 4 ). Further soil sampling and trenching will be carried out in this area that could potentially extend the target corridor to over 1.6km.

Red Mountain Managing Director Jon Dugdale said “We will continue drilling southwest extensions to the structure from Japanese Tunnel to the overlying limestone contact, and potentially beyond, with the objective of locating and defining other high-grade shoots of gold mineralisation.”

About the Lobo Project

Surface trench channel sampling and drilling conducted by the Company has intersected high-grade epithermal gold mineralisation in five areas on the Lobo Mineral Production Sharing Agreement (“MPSA” – Philippines equivalent to a Mining Lease), namely SWB, Pica, Japanese Tunnel, West Drift and Ulupong (see Figure 4 below).

Mineral Resources have been defined for the SWB shoot, totaling Indicated and Inferred 194,000t @ 7.2 g/t gold for 45,000 ounces of gold. This includes an Indicated Resource of 178,000t @ 7.4 g/t Au for 42,000 oz Au and an Inferred Resource of 16,000 t @ 5.3 g/t Au for 3,000 oz Au (30 January 2013, JORC 2004).

The Company is focussed on increasing high grade mineral resources through discovery of new, high grade, gold zones at Lobo. Drilling has commenced testing under recent, exceptionally high-grade gold trenching results from within the 500m long South West Breccia Lode south corridor on the Lobo MPSA including Trench 7; 2m @ 31.1 g/t Au, Trench 13; 2.6m @ 28.6 g/t Au (ASX release 7 January 2014, see Figure 4 below) and Trench 19; 8.35m @ 18.3 g/t Au and Trench 21; 6m @ 31.2 g/t Au (ASX release 12 February 2014).

Exploration Targets have been defined for the Japanese Tunnel and Pica prospects and a continuous program of soil sampling, mapping, surface trenching and now drilling continues with the objective of defining targets for drilling to define additional high-grade Mineral Resources on the Lobo Prospect.

About Red Mountain Mining Limited and the Batangas Gold Project

Red Mountain Mining (ASX: RMX) is primarily a gold explorer and project acquisition company which listed on the ASX in September 2011. The Company’s strategy is to unlock the potential of ‘under-developed’ gold and polymetallic projects in the greater Asian region by introducing Australian exploration and mining methods and improving efficiencies to gain significant exploration and production upside.

The Company holds a 100% direct and indirect contractual right interest in tenements in the Philippines that contain significant gold resources. Total Mineral Resources at Batangas, at a 0.85 g/t Au lower cut off, include Indicated Resources of 2.76 million tonnes @ 2.3 g/t Au, 208,000 oz Au and Inferred Resources of 3.02 million tonnes @ 2.1 g/t Au, 200,000oz Au for a total of 5.78 million tonnes at 2.2 g/t Au, 408,000oz Au (30 January 2013, JORC 2004).

The Company will continue exploration with the objectives of upgrading Mineral Resources at Batangas.

A Scoping Study (released 20 March 2014) has demonstrated a viable, low capital and operating cost, gold development based on initially mining and processing 90,000oz of gold over 4.5 years. The Company has committed to completing a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) by December 2014.

Other gold opportunities will be reviewed on a continuous basis.

Cautionary Statement

The Scoping Study referred to in this announcement is based on lower-level technical and economic assessments, and is insufficient to support estimation of Ore Reserves or to provide assurance of an economic development case at this stage, or to provide certainty that the conclusions of the Scoping Study will be realised.

There is no certainty that the Scoping Study production targets or the forecast financial information derived from production targets, will be realised. All material assumptions underpinning the production targets and forecast financial information derived from the production targets, full details of which were released to ASX on 20 March 2014, continue to apply and have not materially changed.

Competent Person Statement

The information in this report relating to post 1 December 2013 Exploration Results is based on information compiled by Mr Jon Dugdale who is a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and has sufficient exploration experience which is relevant to the various styles of mineralisation under consideration to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in 2012 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’. Mr Dugdale is a full time employee and Managing Director of Red Mountain Mining Ltd. Mr Dugdale takes responsibility and consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.
