Significant opportunity for discovery of additional high grade gold, in particular the Mt Gordon Prospect considered a ‘stand out’ target
-
Exploration at Mt Gordon to commence this Quarter
Minerals exploration company Hannans Reward Ltd (ASX:HNR) (“Hannans” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce highly encouraging gold results from its 100% owned Hardcore Prospect (Lake Johnston Project) located within the Lake Johnston greenstone belt, west of Norseman, Western Australia (refer Figure 1).
Hannans completed ten reverse circulation (RC) percussion drill holes at the Hardcore Prospect, during January 2011, testing down dip and along strike of historical high grade gold intersections (refer Figure 2). The high grade gold intercepts are summarised in Table 1 and also include the intersections outlined in Hannans’ 2[nd] Quarter Activities Report.
The gold mineralisation has been intersected within a felsic intrusive unit and is associated with quartz veining, minor pyrite and intense silica alteration.

Lake Johnston Project – High Grade Gold
9 February 2011
The drilling remains wide spaced however the high grade shoot is interpreted to have a strike length of ~100m and a steep plunge to the north-west (Figure 3).
Hannans have highlighted a number of high grade gold occurrences within the Lake Johnston Project at Ernest, Hardcore and Mt Gordon. The recent assay results further confirm the highly prospective nature of the project, which now covers a 25 km corridor (Figure 4).
Exploration for gold within the Hannans tenements remains limited and it is considered that there is significant opportunity for the discovery of additional high grade gold mineralisation within the project.
In particular the Mt Gordon prospect area is considered to be a stand out target; the prospect includes a large gold anomaly generated from surface auger sampling which covers an area of ~2.5 x 0.5 km’s, the anomaly is significantly larger than the geochemical anomaly associated with the Hardcore gold mineralisation (Figure 5).
Hannans are in the process of planning follow up exploration at the Mt Gordon prospect which will include infill auger sampling and a detailed gravity survey. It is anticipated that the auger sampling and gravity survey will commence this Quarter.
