FINAL SOIL ANALYSIS & FURTHER COPPER DISCOVERIES AT RIQUEZA

IN THIS ANNOUNCEMENT

  • Status report of geochemical soil sampling program

  • Status report of (follow-up) mapping and sampling program

  • Description of the geochemical anomalies using recent soil geochemical, mapping and 3D magnetic modelling results

  • Next Steps at the Riqueza Project

  • Examples of soil assay data analysis for an internal report – Appendix 1

  • Key words and ASX JORC 2012 compliancy tables – Appendix 2

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Geochemical soil sampling program ( Soil Program ) fully completed

  • Three multi-element[1] geochemically anomalous areas are recognised:

  • Yanacolipa Ag-Pb-Zn±(Cu) area

  • Pampa Corral-Colina Roja Au-Ag-Pb-Mo±(Cu) area

  • Cuncayoc Copper-Ajo Orjo Cu-Zn-Ag±(Pb±Mo) area

  • Mapping delivers several key exploration results including:

  • Visible Cu and Pb mineralisation in Yanacolipa area

  • Discovery of porphyry dyke in Yanacolipa area

  • Further visible Cu, Pb and Zn mineralisation in Cuncayoc Copper area

  • 3D magnetic body modelled at recently identified Ajo Orjo target

  • Rockchip assay results and mapping interpretations anticipated within 7-10 days

  • Soil and rockchip geochemical data to be fully integrated with satellite, geological and geophysical data sets to generate next-phase targets

Inca Minerals Limited’s ( Inca or the Company ) is pleased to announce that a Soil Program, comprising 1,286 samples, has been completed and assessment reports have now been received. The Company is also pleased to announce that a parallel geological mapping and rockchip sample program has also been completed with 95 rockchip samples collected during this particular phase of work. This geological mapping program is designed to follow-up on outcropping mineralisation observed during the Soil Program, and/or to follow up on previously un-explored airborne geophysical and/or satellite (ASTER) targets.[2]

This announcement also highlights the progression of importance of the recently identified Ajo Orjo target which now hosts an unaccounted 3D magnetic body. Ajo Orjo was first recognised as a priority two target after the original airborne geophysical program. Interim soil interpretations then identified soil geochemical anomalism associated with it (ASX announcement 15 October 2019).

Soil and Mapping Program Results

The analysis of 52 elements, including metals the Cu, Au, Ag, Mo, Pb, Zn and pathfinder elements, As, Bi, Mn, Sb, Te, Tl, ex cetera , of 1,268 samples of the Soil Program is now complete (Refer to Appendix 1: Extract from an internal report with examples of data treatment; Appendix 2: IDW data treatment ). The purpose of the analysis is to identify subtle soil geochemical expressions that may relate to hidden forms of large-scale mineralisation. Three geochemical areas have been recognised that are believed potentially indictive of large-scale intermediate to high-sulphidation epithermal and/or skarn intrusive-related mineralising processes. These include:

  • A limestone-hosted Ag-Pb-Zn±(Cu) area in the northeast part of Riqueza at Yanacolipa ;

  • A volcanics-hosted Au-Ag-Pb-Mo±(Cu) area in the central part of Riqueza at Pampa Corral-Colina Roja ;

  • A volcanics-hosted Cu-Zn-Ag±(Pb±Mo) area in the south-central part of Riqueza at Cuncayoc Copper-Ajo Orjo .

Mapping conducted at the same time as the Soil Program (and is ongoing) has identified previously unknown mineralisation in outcrop within these geochemical areas. All three geochemical areas host known mineralisation - and all geochemical areas host multiple high priority airborne geophysical targets.

"The results of the Soil Program and the mapping are inseparable in terms of meaning and importance and are discussed below together” says Mr. Brown. “The purpose is to start drawing together different data sets to begin the process of target prioritisation. Compressing each layer, as it were, into a single plan of targets.”

Yanacolipa Geochemical Area

The Yanacolipa geochemical area (Figures 1 & 2) is located in the north-eastern part of Riqueza where the Jumasha Formation limestone is the

dominant lithology. This part of Riqueza is prospective for base-metal skarn and porphyry mineralisation. Yanacolipa hosts a bulls-eye shaped soil anomaly comprising elevated levels of Ag, Pb and Zn (Figure 2). This anomaly is surrounded by the Pucamachay P-1, Chuge P-1, Puymanpata P-1 and Yanacolipa P-2 airborne geophysical targets, with Pucamachay also hosting a very large (surface to 1.5km deep) 3Dmodelled, unaccounted magnetic body (Figure 2 INSERT). Importantly, the occurrence of mafic sills does not adequately account for the geochemical and geophysical signature of this very large and highly prospective area.

Figure 2 RIGHT : Cut and pasted section of Figure 1. The Ag-Pb-Zn anomaly (highlighted within the red dashed circle) is surrounded by airborne magnetics targets, Pucamachay P-1, Chuge P-1, Puymanpata P-1 and Yanacolipa P-2 INSERT 3D magnetic model first appearing in ASX announcement dated 31 October 2018.

Recent mapping at Yanacolipa, the subject of this announcement, has identified chalcopyrite (Cu ore-forming mineral) and galena (Pb ore-forming mineral) in limestones and weakly altered andesitic sills. Mapping has also identified multiple localised occurrences of Fe/Mn oxide-rich silicified and decarbonated limestone, breccia structures and a porphyry dyke that appears to cut through the limestone and a sill locally. These are all indications of broader mineralising processes (the prevalence of heat, fluid movement and intrusive activity). It is believed that the Yanacolipa geochemical area has undergone some form of large-scale mineralising event.

By way of summary, the Yanacolipa geochemical area hosts:

  • Three priority 1 and one priority 2 airborne geophysical targets, including Pucamachay P-1, Chuge-1, Puymanpata P-1 and Yanacolipa P-2;

  • A large and unexplained 3D magnetic body extending from surface to >1.5km depth;

  • A bulls-eye shaped Ag-Pb-Zn soil geochemical anomaly; NEW

  • Andesitic sills, mineralised breccias and one andesitic porphyry dyke; NEW

  • Zones of visible Cu (chalcopyrite, malachite, azurite) and Pb (galena) mineralisation. NEW

Pampa Corral-Colina Roja Geochemical Area

The Pampa Corral-Colina Roja geochemical area (Figures 1 & 5) is located in the central part of Riqueza where volcanics and marls of the Casapalca Formation border the Jumasha Formation (Figure 1). This part of Riqueza is prospective for base-metal skarn and porphyry mineralisation. The Pampa Corral-Colina Roja geochemical area encompasses the Pampa Corral, Uchpanga and Colina Rojas Prospects which have been mapped in detail in the past and which are all known to host mineralisation, the latter two, including inter alia Au and Ag.

The Pampa Corral-Colina Roja geochemical area hosts multiple coincident soil geochemical anomalies that appear to have an overall northeast-southwest orientation. The centre of the strongest part of the geochemical target is located between the Uchpanga, Colina Roja and Pampa Corral Prospect (Figure 5).

Suite 1/16 Nicholson Road, Subiaco, WA 6008 • PO BOX 38, West Perth, WA 6872 Telephone: +61 (08) 6145 0300 • ABN: 36 128 512 907 Website: www.incaminerals.com.au

Figure 5 LEFT : Cut and pasted section of Figure 1. The Au-Ag-Pb-Mo±(Cu) soil anomaly (highlighted within a red dashed circle) is surrounded in all directions by known prospects. In rockchip sampling, Uchpanga hosts bonanza grade Ag, strong Au, Pb and Zn. Colina Roja hosts strong Au and Ag mineralisation. Pampa Corral hosts two intrusive stocks and minor Cu skarn mineralisation.

By way of summary, the Pampa Corral-Colina Roja geochemical area hosts:

  • One P-2 and one P-3 airborne geophysical targets, including Pampa Corral P-2 and Uchpanga P-3;

  • Bonanza-grade Ag mineralisation (920g/t Ag) and strong Au, Pb and Zn mineralisation at the Uchpanga and Colina Roja Prospects in rockchip sampling;

  • A bulls-eye shaped Au-Ag-Pb-Mo soil geochemical anomaly; NEW

  • Known monzodiorite and meta-gabbro intrusive stocks;

  • Known, though minor, Cu skarn (malachite, azurite) mineralisation (garnets in a marl adjacent to the monzodiorite).

It is felt that the Pampa Corral-Colina Roja area has undergone a separate mineralising event to that of the Yanacolipa area. Although they are located within the same northeast-southwest regional intrusive corridor, among other reasons, the Pampa Corral-Colina Roja area has relatively more Au, Ag and Mo, distinguishing it from the Yanacolipa geochemical area.

Cuncayoc Copper -Ajo Orjo Geochemical Area

The Cuncayoc Copper-Ajo Orjo geochemical area (Figures 1 & 6) is located in the south-central part of Riqueza and comprises volcanic units of the Casapalca Formation. Noteworthy in terms of geology, is the rhyolite volcanic dome, that has recently been recognised at Alteration Ridge, located on the western perimeter of the Cuncayoc Copper-Ajo Orjo soil geochemical area. It is believed that the rhyolite dome played some role in the evolution of pervasive epithermal mineralisation at Riqueza and is itself an indication of the intrusive history of Riqueza, a harbinger of related porphyry intrusive activity. There are three known intrusive epithermal and mineralised porphyry systems within a 15km radius of Riqueza, including that which is associated with the Corihuarmi gold mine; a Au-Cu porphyry associated with the base-metals Bethania mine and a Au-Cu porphyry at Huaculio.

Recent 3D magnetic modelling, the subject of this announcement, of the Ajo Orjo East & Ajo Orjo West P-2 airborne geophysical targets has revealed a large unaccounted magnetic body that extends from surface to over 1.4km depth (Figure 7). Based on the final Soil Program, this target now also hosts Cu, Mo and Pb soil geochemical anomalies.

Recent mapping, also the subject of this announcement, has identified several outcrops containing visible azurite and malachite (Cu ore-forming minerals), galena, and smithsonite (Zn ore-forming mineral). The Cu, Pb and Zn mineralisation occurs in Fe/Mn-oxide bearing breccia structures (Figures 8 & 9).

By way of summary, the Cuncayoc-Ajo Orjo geochemical area hosts:

  • Four P-1 and four P-2 airborne geophysical targets, including Ushpanga P-1, Cunayhuasi P-1, Cuncayoc East P-1, Chojepite P-1, Cuncayoc West P-2, Ajo Orjo W & E P-2’s and Cachillusca P-2;

  • Bonanza-grade Ag mineralisation (911g/t Ag) and strong Cu mineralisation at the Cuncayoc Copper Prospect in rockchip sampling;

  • Several 3D modelled unaccounted magnetic bodies at Cuncayoc Copper, Huasijaja and Ajo Orjo Prospects. NEW The Huasijaja 3D magnetic body is ±200 million cubic metres is size;

  • Multiple other known zones of mineralisation;

  • And is flanked by the rhyolite dome at Alteration Ridge.

Next Steps

The process of compiling and assessing the multiple data sets has begun with the finalisation of the Soil Program. This announcement is an illustration of the assessment process to be deployed—combining airborne geophysical data and recent soil and rockchip geochemical, geological mapping and magnetics 3D imaging data. Further analysis will be considerably more inclusive, using all data sets and will be sufficiently detailed to derive well defined and prioritised target areas. Low-cost mapping and sampling will continue the search for mineralisation, alteration, presence of intrusions, ex cetera, to assist assessments. An Induced Polarisation ( IP ) ground-geophysical survey is being considered to provide sub-surface information to better define the highest priority targets.

Assays for the 95 rockchip samples and subsequent assessment of results is anticipated within seven to ten days.

Criteria: Sampling techniques

JORC CODE Explanation

Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or hand-held XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.

Company Commentary

This announcement refers to the receipt of geochemical anomaly map (derived from unpublished thematic maps) constructed from 1,286 soil sample assay results (of gold, copper, silver, molybdenum, zinc and lead). This announcement also refers to the collection of 95 rockchip samples and to a 3D magnetic modelling result. With respect to the rockchip samples, the majority are channel samples.
