Highlights

  • A reverse circulation drill program of up to 2,000m will commence this week on shallow primary gold targets at Renascor’s Soyuz prospect in South Australia’s Central Gawler Craton.

  • Previous drilling at Soyuz (see Figure 1 and Renascor ASX announcement dated 4 August 2020) has intersected shallow gold, with results including:

  • 7m @ 5.14g/t Au from 26m to end of hole, including 2m @ 16.42 g/t Au from 30m;[1] and

  • 6m @ 4.94g/t Au from 14m.[2]

[email protected] www.renascor.com.au

  • The drill program will include testing for high-grade extensions at shallow depth and along-strike from the previous high-grade intersections at Soyuz.

  • Drilling will also target potential sulphide-bearing mineralisation approximately 500m along strike of previous Soyuz drilling, where a recent induced polarisation ( IP ) survey and soil sampling program have identified coincident chargeability and geochemical anomalies at the southern boundary of the north-south orientated Soyuz magnetic high.

  • Renascor has received all necessary approvals and a drill rig has been mobilised to site. The drill program is expected to be completed within approximately two weeks.

Renascor’s Soyuz prospect is part of its 100%-owned Carnding Gold Project[3] in South Australia’s Central Gawler Craton, an area that hosts a significant number of gold deposits and occurrences within an arcuate region around the southern and western edge of the Gawler Range Volcanic Province outcrop.[4] Gold mines and deposits in the region include the Challenger and Tarcoola gold mines and the Tunkillia gold deposit. See Figure 2.

Figure 2. Renascor’s Soyuz Prospect in relation to nearby gold mines and prospects

The region is currently experiencing increased gold exploration and development activity, including the proposed redevelopment of the Tarcoola gold mine, located approximately 20km east of Renascor’s project area, and the Tunkillia gold deposit by Barton Gold Pty Ltd (see www.bartongold.com.au). Additional recent gold activity in the area has included Maromota Energy’s (ASX: MEU) exploration of the Aurora Tank project and its purchase of the Jumbuck project from Tyranna Resource (ASX: TYR) and the acquisition of the Boomerang, Earea Dam and other gold prospects by Indiana Resources (ASX: IDA). See Figure 2.

The reverse circulation drill program of up to 2,000m will include testing for extensions at shallow depth and along-strike from the previous high-grade intersections at Soyuz in an

Initial shallow drilling at Soyuz returned anomalous to highly anomalous gold intercepts, including:

  • 6m @ 4.94g/t Au from 14m (SZRC07)[5] .

Drilling will also target potential sulphide-bearing mineralisation approximately 500m along strike of previous Soyuz drilling at the southern boundary of the north-south orientated magnetic high (see Figure 3) where a recent IP survey[6] and soil sampling program have identified coincident chargeability and geochemical anomalies.

As shown in Figure 4, the recent IP survey has confirmed an anomaly that is shallow (from near surface) and significant in scale, covering a zone of approximately 200m in width and five to eight times background.

==> picture [404 x 272] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 4. IP Section 6608200N, showing IP chargeability target zone and planned drill holes

The anomaly’s position between the north-south orientated magnetic feature and the granite margin to the south is consistent with a potentially significant hydrothermal system.

At surface, previous soil sampling within the anomalous IP zone indicated Rare Earth Element and Uranium anomalism, which may suggest pathfinders for gold. Follow-up soil sampling and assaying completed last week has confirmed the coincident geochemical surface anomalism. See Figures 5 and 6 (next page).

Renascor considers the chargeability anomaly to offer high priority drill targets for granite associated hydrothermal gold.

Drillhole
Information

A summary of all information
material to the understanding
of the exploration results
including a tabulation of the
following information for all
Material drillholes:
o
easting and northing of
the drillhole collar
o
elevation or RL (elevation
above sea level in metres)
of the drillhole collar
o
dip and azimuth of the
hole
o
down hole length and
interception depth
o
hole length.

No drilling is being reported.
Data
aggregation
methods

In reporting Exploration Results,
weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum
grade truncations (e.g. cutting
of high grades) and cut-off
grades are usually Material and
should be stated.

No data aggregation was undertaken.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths

If the geometry of the
mineralisation with respect to
the drillhole angle is known, its
nature should be reported.

If it is not known and only the
down hole lengths are reported,
there should be a clear
statement to this effect.

No drilling was undertaken. The
relationship between anomalous soil
assays and potential primary gold
mineralisation is unknown at this stage
of exploration.
Diagrams
Appropriate maps and sections
(with scales) and tabulations of
intercepts should be included for
any significant discovery being
reported These should include,
but not be limited to a plan view
of drill hole collar locations and
appropriate sectional views.

See figures in this release.
Balanced
reporting

Where comprehensive reporting
of all Exploration Results is not
practicable, representative
reporting of both low and high
grades and/or widths should be
practiced to avoid misleading
reporting of Exploration Results.

The reporting is balanced. All material
was assayed.
