MUSKET DIAMOND DRILLING UPDATE
- First round of diamond drilling complete at Musket with 15 holes drilled for 5,200 metres
- Coherent body of nickel sulphide mineralisation defined at Musket down to at least 400 metre depth
- Mineralisation still strongly open at depth and along strike – significant untested down hole EM target
- Resource estimation underway to assess current and future potential
Rox Resources Limited (ASX: RXL) ("Rox" or "the Company") wishes to advise that it has completed the first stage diamond drilling program (15 holes for 5,200m) at the Musket prospect at its Mt Fisher gold-nickel project, 500km north of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia.
The drilling has defined a coherent body of ore grade nickel sulphide mineralisation that has been drilled to approximately 400m depth and is still open down dip and along strike (Figure 1).
A resource estimate will now be undertaken in order to assess and quantify the additions to the overall project resource (i.e. including the existing Camelwood Mineral Resource of 1.6 Mt @ 2.2% Ni for approximately 35,000 tonnes of contained nickel).
Managing Director Ian Mulholland commented, "This diamond drilling program has added a substantial number of tonnes to our overall project mineral resource, and we will quantify that with a maiden resource estimate for Musket."
"We have now discovered two deposits of nickel sulphide mineralisation at Fisher East, both of which are open at depth and along strike and with further drilling I'm sure we will continue to increase our resource base."
"Musket has shown good ore thicknesses and grades (up to 20% Ni in the massive sulphide zones) which will add significantly to the development potential of this project. With the predicted strong nickel price over the next few years, prospects for a project development are looking good."

Drilling results from the latest phase of diamond drilling included one hole at the Cannonball prospect, MFED051, which continued to intersect mineralisation at a depth of approximately 300m below surface.
MFED051: 1.1m @ 4.1% Ni from 367.8m
Cannonball has produced a number of drill intersections at 4% Ni or better, although over narrow widths (about 1m), extending 200m along strike and now to a depth of at least 300m down dip. Further studies are underway to determine vectors to where the mineralisation might be thicker at Cannonball.
Drilling also included further holes at Musket to better define the resource, with results including:
| MFED053: | 0.8m @ 4.0% Ni from 257.0m |
|---|---|
| MFED054: | 2.8m @ 4.5% Ni from 298.8m, including 0.7m @ 14.6% Ni of massive sulphide from 298.8m |
| MFED056: | 8.7m @ 1.6% Ni from 456.6m, including 0.2m @ 5.4% Ni from 456.6m. |
Full results are listed in Table 1, and shown on Figures 1 – 5.
Downhole EM surveys were used to guide the locations of drill holes as the definition of the Musket resource grew. As can be seen on Figure 1, the mineralisation is still open down dip of holes MFED047, 050, 049 and 056.
The downhole survey in hole MFED056, completed after the hole was finished and drill rig de-mobilised, identified a significant off-hole conductor to the north beneath hole MFED052 (Figure 1) that hasn't been drill tested. This could possibly be the extension of the massive sulphide mineralisation intersected in holes MFED042, 043 and 054 and is a high priority target for the next drilling campaign.
Dam Gold Prospect
Following the completion of the Musket diamond drilling program the rig was re-located to the Dam gold prospect where a 413m diamond hole was drilled to test a long standing gold mineralisation target. Assays will be available in about 4 weeks from this hole.
Aircore/RAB and RC Drilling
A program of aircore/RAB drilling has commenced to test along strike for 5km to the south of Musket on tenement E53/1218 to follow up a number of exciting targets. This drilling and its results is expected to take about 6 weeks.
In addition a program of RC drilling will commence shortly to further test targets at Musket and Cannonball. Results from this drilling should also be available in about 6 weeks.

Table 1: Musket Diamond Drilling Assay Results
Diamond drill holes MFED042 to MFED050 (Table 1) have been reported previously (ASX:RXL 28 April 2014, 6 May 2014 and 27 May 2014).
Notes to Table:
- New results shown in bold.
- Grid coordinates GDA94: Zone 51, collar positions determined by hand held GPS.
- All holes nominal RL 542 +/- 1m AHD estimated from regional Digital Elevation Model.
- Hole azimuths planned as 270 degrees, downhole deviations result in hole paths slightly different to those intended.
- RC drilling (hole prefix MFEC) by reverse circulation face sampling hammer, then 1 metre samples cone split and bagged.
- Diamond drilling (hole prefix MFED) by HQ/NQ diamond core, with core cut in half and sampled to either significant geological boundaries or even metre intervals.
- Diamond drill samples weighed in water and air to determine bulk density, and then crushed to 6.5mm. 3-5kg sample preparation by pulp mill to nominal P80/75um.
- Ni analysis by Intertek Genalysis Perth method 4A/OE: Multi-acid digest including Hydrofluoric, Nitric, Perchloric and Hydrochloric acids in Teflon Tubes. Analysed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical (Atomic) Emission Spectrometry. For higher precision analyses (e.g. Ni > 1%), Intertek Genalysis Perth method 4AH/OE: Modified (for higher precision) multi-acid digest including Hydrofluoric, Nitric, Perchloric and Hydrochloric acids. Analysed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical (Atomic) Emission Spectrometry.
- Certified Reference Standards and field duplicate samples were inserted at regular intervals to provide assay quality checks. Review of the standards and duplicates are within acceptable limits.
- Cut-off grade for reporting of 1% Ni with up to 2m of internal dilution allowed.
- Given the angle of the drill holes and the interpreted 60-65 degree easterly dip of the host rocks, reported intercepts will be slightly more than true width.

About Rox Resources
Rox Resources Limited is an emerging Australian minerals exploration company. The company has four key assets at various levels of development with exposure to gold, nickel, zinc, lead, copper and phosphate, including the Mt Fisher Gold Project (WA), Myrtle/Reward Zinc-Lead Project (NT), the Bonya Copper Project (NT) and the Marqua Phosphate Project (NT).
Mt Fisher Gold-Nickel Project (100% + Option to Purchase $3.6 million)
The Mt Fisher gold project is located in the highly prospective North Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia and in addition to being well endowed with gold the project hosts strong nickel potential. The total project area is 655km2 , consisting of a 485km2 area 100% owned by Rox and an Option to purchase 100% of a further 170km2 .
Recent drilling at the Camelwood nickel prospect has defined a JORC 2012 Mineral Resource (ASX:RXL 3 October 2013) of 1.6Mt grading 2.2% nickel reported at 1.0% Ni cut-off (Indicated Mineral Resource: 0.6Mt grading 2.4% Ni, Inferred Mineral Resource: 1.0Mt grading 2.1% Ni) comprising massive and disseminated nickel sulphide mineralisation, and containing 34,600 tonnes of nickel. A higher grade core of 520,000 tonnes grading 3.1% nickel reported at a 2.5% Ni cut-off (Indicated Mineral Resource: 240,000 tonnes grading 3.2% Ni, Inferred Mineral Resource: 280,000 tonnes grading 3.0% Ni) is present. The mineralisation is still open in all directions. The nickel Mineral Resource occurs partly on tenements under Option to Purchase to Rox, with an exercise price payable as follows: $1.1 million by 30 June 2014, $0.2 million by 31 December 2014, and $2.3 million by 30 June 2015.
Drilling by Rox has also defined numerous high-grade gold targets and a JORC 2004 Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource (ASX:RXL 10 February 2012) of 973,000 tonnes grading 2.75 g/t gold reported at a 0.8 g/tAu cut-off exists for 86,000 ounces of gold (Measured: 171,900 tonnes grading 4.11 g/t Au, Indicated: 204,900 tonnes grading 2.82 g/t Au, Inferred: 596,200 tonnes grading 2.34 g/t Au) aggregated over the Damsel, Moray Reef and Mt Fisher deposits.
Reward Zinc-Lead Project (49% + Farm-out Agreement)
Rox has signed an Earn-In and Joint Venture Agreement with Teck Australia Pty Ltd. ("Teck") to explore its highly prospective 670km2 Myrtle/Reward zinc-lead tenements, located 700km south-east of Darwin, Northern Territory, adjacent to the McArthur River zinc-lead mine.
The Myrtle zinc-lead deposit has a current JORC 2004 Mineral Resource (ASX:RXL 15 March 2010) of 43.6 Mt @ 5.04% Zn+Pb reported at a 3.0% Zn+Pb cut-off (Indicated: 5.8 Mt @ 3.56% Zn, 0.90% Pb; Inferred: 37.8 Mt @ 4.17% Zn, 0.95% Pb).
Recent drilling at the Teena zinc-lead prospect intersected 26.4m @ 13.3% Zn+Pb including 16.2m @ 17.2% Zn+Pb, and 20.1m @ 15.0% Zn+Pb including 12.5m @19.5% Zn+Pb, and together with historic drilling has defined significant high grade zinc-lead mineralisation over a strike length of at least 1.5km.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Teck has now met the expenditure requirement for a 51% interest, with Rox holding the remaining 49%. Teck has elected to increase its interest in the project to 70% by spending an additional A$10m (A$15m in total) by 31 August 2018 (ASX:RXL 21 August 2013).
Bonya Copper Project (Farm-in Agreement to earn up to 70%)
In October 2012 Rox signed a Farm-in Agreement with Arafura Resources Limited to explore the Bonya Copper Project located 350km east of Alice Springs, Northern Territory. Outcrops of visible copper grading up to 34% Cu and 27 g/t Ag are present. Under the Agreement Rox can earn a 51% interest in the copper, lead, zinc, silver, gold, bismuth and PGE mineral rights at Bonya by spending $500,000 within the first two years. Rox can then elect to earn a further 19% (for 70% in total) by spending a further $1 million over a further two years. Once Rox has earned either a 51% or 70% interest it can form a joint venture with Arafura to further explore and develop the area.

| Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that areMaterial to the Public Report. In cases where 'industrystandard' work has been done this would be relativelysimple (e.g. 'reverse circulation drilling was used toobtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised toproduce a 30 g charge for fire assay'). In other casesmore explanation may be required, such as wherethere is coarse gold that has inherent samplingproblems. Unusual commodities or mineralisationtypes (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosureof detailed information | Diamond core is dominantly NQ2 size, sampled on geologicalintervals, with a minimum of 0.1 m up to a maximum of 1.5 m.NQ2 core is cut into half, or quarter for HQ holes. RC drillholeswere sampled on 1m intervals using riffle or cone splitter units.Samples were sent to Intertek Genalysis in Kalgoorlie, crushed to10mm, dried and pulverised (total prep) in LM5 units (Somesamples > 3kg were split) to produce a sub-sample. The pulpswere then sent to Perth for analysis by four acid digest with amulti-element ICP-OES finish (code: 4A/OE-multi element).

Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography. | Logging of diamond core and RC chips recorded lithology,mineralogy, mineralisation, structure (DD only), weathering,colour, and other sample features. Core was photographed and isstored in plastic core trays. RC chips are stored in plastic RC chiptrays. | |
| The total length and percentage of the relevantintersections logged | All holes were logged in full except for the rock roller bit diamondhole pre-collars (0-120m in most cases). | |
| Sub-samplingtechniques and samplepreparation | If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, halfor all core taken. | Drill core was cut in half on site using a core saw. All samples werecollected from the same side of the core, preserving theorientation mark in the kept core half. |
| If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split,etc and whether sampled wet or dry. | RC samples were collected on the drill rig using a cone splitter. Ifany mineralised samples were collected wet these were noted inthe drill logs and database. | |
| For all sample types, the nature, quality andappropriateness of the sample preparation technique. | The sample preparation followed industry best practice. Thisinvolved oven drying, coarse crushing of diamond core to ~10mm,followed by pulverisation of the entire sample in an LM5 orequivalent pulverising mill to a grind size of 85% passing 75micron. | |
| Quality control procedures adopted for all subsampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. | Field QC procedures involve the use of Certified ReferenceMaterials (CRM's) as assay standards, along with duplicates andbarren waste samples. The insertion rate of these wasapproximately 1:20. | |
| Measures taken to ensure that the sampling isrepresentative of the in situ material collected,including for instance results for field duplicate/secondhalf sampling. | No diamond core field duplicates were taken. For RC drilling fieldduplicates were taken on a routine basis at an approximate 1:20ratio using the same sampling techniques (i.e. cone splitter) andinserted into the sample run. | |
| Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain sizeof the material being sampled. | The sample sizes are considered more than adequate to ensurethat there are no particle size effects relating to the grain size ofthe mineralisation which lies in the percentage range. | |
| Quality of assay dataand laboratory tests | The nature, quality and appropriateness of theassaying and laboratory procedures used and whetherthe technique is considered partial or total. | The analytical technique involved a four acid digest followed bymulti-element ICP/OES analysis (Intertek analysis code 4A/OE).The four acid digest involves hydrofluoric, nitric, perchloric andhydrochloric acids and is considered a "complete" digest for mostmaterial types, except certain chromite minerals. |

| Documentationofprimarydata,dataentryprocedures, data verification, data storage (physicaland electronic) protocols. | Primary data was collected using a standard set of Excel templateson Toughbook laptop computers in the field. These data aretransferred to Geobase Pty Ltd for data verification and loadinginto the database. | |
| Discuss any adjustment to assay data. | No adjustments or calibrations have been made to any assay data. | |
| Location of datapoints | Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locatedrillholes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches,mine workings and other locations used in MineralResource estimation. | Not applicable. A hand held GPS has been used to determine collarlocations at this stage, however DGPS collar surveys will beundertaken by a licensed surveyor shortly. |
| Specification of the grid system used. | The grid system is MGA_GDA94, zone 51 for easting, northing andRL. | |
| Quality and adequacy of topographic control. | The topographic surface was generated from digital terrain modelsgenerated from low level airborne geophysical surveys. | |
| Data spacing anddistribution | Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. | The drill hole spacing varies 40-100 metres between drill sections,with some areas at 40 metre drill section spacing. Some sections(but not all) have had more than one hole drilled. Down dip stepout distance varies 40-60 metres. |
| Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficientto establish the degree of geological and gradecontinuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource andOre Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classificationsapplied. | The mineralisation and geology shows very good continuity fromhole to hole and will be sufficient to support the definition of aMineral Resource or Ore Reserve and the classifications containedin the JORC Code (2012 Edition) in due course. | |
| Whether sample compositing has been applied. | No sample compositing has occurred for diamond core drilling.Sample intervals are based on geological boundaries with evenone metre samples between. | |
| For RC samples, sample compositing occurred over 4 metreintervals for non-mineralised material, but all mineralised intervalswere sampled at a one metre interval. | ||
| Orientation of data inrelation to geologicalstructure | Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiasedsampling of possible structures and the extent to whichthis is known, considering the deposit type. | The deposit strikes at about 345 degrees and dips to the east atbetween -60 to -70 degrees. The drill orientation was planned tobe 260 - 270 degrees, so slightly oblique to the perpendiculardirection, however, some drill holes have swung slightly south (toup to 255 degrees) so were drilling essentially perpendicular tostrike. This is confirmed in structural logging of mineralised zones. |
| If the relationship between the drilling orientation andthe orientation of key mineralised structures isconsidered to have introduced a sampling bias, thisshould be assessed and reported if material. | No sampling bias is believed to have been introduced. | |
| Sample security | The measures taken to ensure sample security. | Sample security is managed by the Company. After preparation inthe field samples are packed into polyweave bags and despatchedto the laboratory. For a large number of samples these bags weretransported by the Company directly to the assay laboratory. Insome cases the sample were delivered to a transport contractorwho then delivered the samples to the assay laboratory. The assaylaboratory audits the samples on arrival and reports anydiscrepancies back to the Company. No such discrepanciesoccurred. |
| Audits or reviews | The results of any audits or reviews of samplingtechniques and data. | A review of previous sampling techniques and data was carriedout by Optiro Pty Ltd ("Optiro") as part of the Camelwood MineralResource estimate(ASX:RXL 3 October 2013). The database isconsidered by Optiro to be of sufficient quality to support aMineral Resource estimate. In addition, from time to time, theCompany carries out its own internal data audits. |

Mineralisation is mostly situated at the (eastern)basal ultramafic - felsic contact. The rocks are strongly talccarbonate altered. Metamorphism is mid-upper Greenschist. Thedeposit is analogous to Kambalda style nickel sulphide deposits. |
| Drill hole Information | A summary of all information material to theunderstanding of the exploration results including atabulation of the following information for all Materialdrill holes:easting and northing of the drill hole collarelevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevationabove sea level in metres) of the drill holecollardip and azimuth of the holedown hole length and interception depthhole length. | Refer to drill results Table/s and the Notes attached thereto. |
| Data aggregationmethods | In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averagingtechniques,maximumand/orminimumgradetruncations (e.g. cutting of high grades) and cut-offgrades are usually Material and should be stated. | All reported assay intervals have been length weighted. No topcuts have been applied. A lower cut-off of 1% is applied with up to2m of internal dilution allowed. See Notes to Table/s. |
| Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengthsof high grade results and longer lengths of low graderesults, the procedure used for such aggregationshould be stated and some typical examples of suchaggregations should be shown in detail. | High grade massive sulphide intervals internal to broader zones ofmineralisation are reported as included intervals. See Table/s. | |
| The assumptions used for any reporting of metalequivalent values should be clearly stated. | No metal equivalent values have been used or reported. | |
| Relationship betweenmineralisation widthsand intercept lengths | These relationships are particularly important in thereporting of Exploration Results.If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect tothe drill hole angle is known, its nature should bereported.If it is not known and only the down hole lengths arereported, there should be a clear statement to thiseffect (e.g. 'down hole length, true width not known'). | The mineralisation is moderately east dipping throughout thedeposit. Drillhole azimuths were planned at 2700and holesgenerally inclined at -600 west (but see Table 1). Given the angle ofthe drill holes and the interpreted dip of the host rocks andmineralisation (see Figures 3-4), reported intercepts will be morethan true width. |
| Diagrams | Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) andtabulations of intercepts should be included for anysignificant discovery being reported These shouldinclude, but not be limited to a plan view of drill holecollar locations and appropriate sectional views. | Refer to Figures and Table in the text. |
| Balanced reporting | Where comprehensive reporting of all ExplorationResults is not practicable, representative reporting ofboth low and high grades and/or widths should bepracticed to avoid misleading reporting of ExplorationResults. | At this stage only likely mineralised intervals have been analysed.Full assays are underway and will be reported in due course. |
