____________
Australian gold and nickel company, Rox Resources Limited (“Rox” or “the Company”) (ASX: RXL), in conjunction with its joint venture partner Venus Metals Corporation (ASX: VMC) is pleased to announce further results from its ongoing drilling campaign at the OYG JV which forms part of the wider Youanmi Gold Project.
Rox has drilled over 11,000 metres and has received results for around 80% of this amount. The drill program total meterage will be in the order of 16,500 metres.
Managing Director Alex Passmore Commented: “These results continue to show the excellent potential of the Youanmi belt and the OYG JV in particular and we look forward to presenting further results when they become available. Drilling at the Plant Zone prospect, a granite stockwork style of mineralisation now delineated over a 1.4km strike length, continues to add scale to the overall project gold inventory.”

Recent drilling has been focussed on the Plant Zone (potentially base load mill feed) and the high-grade Commonwealth Prospect. The company looks forward to moving its focus onto the Youanmi South Prospect next week following completion of geophysical surveying (drone mag). The Youanmi South Prospect has previously returned some of the best drill intersections of the current drill program, including (ASX: 24 September 2019):
-
RXRC063 – 12m @ 12.7 g/t Au from 80m
-
RXRC064 – 12m @ 8.5 g/t Au from 44m
-
RXRC053 – 4m @ 11.2 g/t Au from 110m
-
RXRC066 – 4m @ 7.6 g/t Au from 76m
The current RC drill program is ongoing and will continue throughout November with resource estimation work to follow thereafter.

About Rox Resources
Rox Resources Limited is an emerging Australian minerals exploration company. The company has a number of key assets at various levels of development with exposure to gold, nickel, copper and platinum group elements (PGE’s). The 1.2Moz Youanmi Gold Project and the Fisher East Nickel Project (78kt Ni) being the most advanced projects with exploration ongoing at the Mt Fisher Gold Project and the Collurabbie Nickel-Copper-PGE Project.
Youanmi Gold Project (Youanmi Gold Mine 50% and option to increase to 70%, Regional JV’s 50% earn-in)
The Youanmi Gold Mine is located 480 km to the northeast of Perth, Western Australia. The Youanmi Mining Centre has produced an estimated 667,000 oz of gold (at 5.47 g/t Au) since discovery in 1901 during three main periods: 1908 to 1921, 1937 to 1942, and 1987 to 1997.
The project is situated in the Youanmi Greenstone Belt, within the Southern Cross Province of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton in Western Australia. The structure of the Youanmi Project is dominated by the north-trending Youanmi Fault Zone. Most of the gold mineralisation seen at the project is hosted within north-northwest splays off the north-northeast trending Youanmi Fault.
Fisher East Nickel Project (100%)
The Fisher East nickel project is located in the North Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia and hosts several nickel sulphide deposits. The total project area is ~350km2.
Discovery of, and drilling at the Camelwood, Cannonball and Musket nickel prospects has defined a JORC 2012 Mineral Resource (ASX:RXL 5 February 2016) of 4.2Mt grading 1.9% Ni reported at 1.0% Ni cut-off (Indicated Mineral Resource: 3.7Mt grading 1.9% Ni, Inferred Mineral Resource: 0.5Mt grading 1.5% Ni) comprising massive and disseminated nickel sulphide mineralisation, and containing 78,000 tonnes of nickel. Higher grade mineralisation is present in all deposits (refer to ASX announcement above) and is still open at depth beneath each deposit. Additional nickel sulphide deposits continue to be discovered (e.g. Sabre) and these will add to the resource base. Exploration is continuing to define further zones of potential nickel sulphide mineralisation.
Collurabbie Gold-Nickel Project (100%)
The Collurabbie project is located in the highly prospective North Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia and is prospective for gold and nickel. The project area of ~123km2 hosts the Olympia nickel sulphide deposit and a number of other prospects for nickel sulphide mineralisation. A JORC 2012 Inferred Mineral Resource of 573,000t grading 1.63% Ni, 1.19% Cu, 0.082% Co, 1.49g/t Pd, 0.85g/t Pt has been defined at Olympia (ASX: RXL 18 August 2017). The style of nickel sulphide mineralisation is different to that at Fisher East, with a significant copper and PGE component at Collurabbie, and has been compared to the Raglan nickel deposits in Canada (>1Mt contained nickel). In addition, there is potential for gold mineralisation, with several strong drilling intersections including 2m @ 2.4g/t Au from the Naxos prospect.
Mt Fisher Gold Project (100%)
The Mt Fisher gold project is located in the North Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia, adjacent to the Fisher East nickel project, and hosts several gold deposits. The total project area is ~220km2.
Drilling by Rox has defined numerous high-grade gold targets and a JORC 2012 Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource (ASX:RXL 11 July 2018) of 1.0 million tonnes grading 2.7 g/t Au reported at a 0.8 g/t Au cut-off exists for 89,000 ounces of gold (Measured: 170,000 tonnes grading 4.1 g/t Au, Indicated: 220,000 tonnes grading 2.7 g/t Au, Inferred: 630,000 tonnes grading 2.3 g/t Au) aggregated over the Damsel, Moray Reef and Mt Fisher deposits.

JORC Table 1 - Section 1 Data and Sampling Techniques
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation Commentary |
|---|---|
| Sampling techniques |
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 handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. RC hole diameter was 5.5" (140 mm) reverse circulation percussion (RC). Sampling of RC holes was undertaken by collecting 1m cone split samples at intervals. Drill holes were generally angled at -650towards grid northeast (but see Table for individual hole dips and azimuths) to intersect geology as close to perpendicular as possible. |
| Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used Drillhole locations were picked up by handheld GPS. Logging of drill samples included lithology, weathering, texture, moisture and contamination (as applicable). Sampling protocols and QAQC are as per industry best practice procedures. |
|
| Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information RC drillholes were sampled on 1m intervals using riffle or cone splitter units. Samples were sent to Intertek Genalysis in Perth, crushed to 10mm, dried and pulverised (total prep) in LM5 units (Some samples > 3kg were split) to produce a sub-sample. The pulps were analysed by 50g Fire Assay with ICP-OES (Intertek code FA25/OE). |
|
| Drilling techniques |
Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc). Drilling technique was Reverse Circulation (RC). The RC hole diameter was 140mm face sampling hammer. Hole depths reported range from 60m to 160m. |
| Drill sample recovery |
Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed RC drill recoveries were high (>90%). |
| Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples RC samples were visually checked for recovery, moisture and contamination and notes made in the logs. |
|
| Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material. There is no observable relationship between recovery and grade, and therefore no sample bias. |
|
| Logging | Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. Detailed geological logs have been carried out on all RC drill holes, but no geotechnical data have been recorded (or is possible to be recorded due to the nature of the sample). The geological data would be suitable for inclusion in a Mineral Resource estimate. |
| Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography. Logging of RC chips recorded lithology, mineralogy, mineralisation, weathering, colour, and other sample features. RC chips are stored in plastic RC chip trays. |
|
| The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged All holes were logged in full. |

|---|---|
| Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation |
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. N/A |
| 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. If any mineralised samples were collected wet these were noted in the drill logs and database. |
|
| For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique. The sample preparation followed industry best practice. Fire Assay samples were dried, coarse crushing to ~10mm, followed by pulverisation of the entire sample in an LM5 or equivalent pulverising mill to a grind size of 85% passing 75 micron. |
|
| Quality control procedures adopted for all sub- sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. Field QC procedures involve the use of Certified Reference Materials (CRM’s) as assay standards, along with duplicates and blank samples. The insertion rate of these was approximately 1:20. |
|
| Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second- half sampling. For RC drilling field duplicates were taken on a routine basis at an approximate 1:20 ratio using the same sampling techniques (i.e. cone splitter) and inserted into the sample run. |
|
| Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. The sample sizes are considered more than adequate to ensure that there are no particle size effects relating to the grain size of the mineralisation which lies in the percentage range. |
|
| Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total. The analytical technique involved Fire Assay 50g. |
| For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc. No geophysical or portable analysis tools were used to determine assay values stored in the database. |
|
| Nature of quality control procedures adopted (e.g. standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (i.e. lack of bias) and precision have been established. Internal laboratory control procedures involve duplicate assaying of randomly selected assay pulps as well as internal laboratory standards. All of these data are reported to the Company and analysed for consistency and any discrepancies. Check assays were undertaken at an independent third party assay laboratory and correlated extremely well. |
|
| Verification of sampling and assaying |
The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel. Senior personnel from the Company (Managing Director and Senior Geologist) have visually inspected mineralisation within significant intersections. |
| The use of twinned holes. Twin drilling by Rox in shallower areas has verified the drill results of previous explorers. |
|
| Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols. Primary data was collected using a standard set of Excel templates on Toughbook laptop computers in the field. These data are transferred to Geobase Pty Ltd for data verification and loading into the database. |

Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drillholes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation. Not applicable. A hand held GPS has been used to determine collar locations at this stage, however DGPS collar surveys will be undertaken by a licensed surveyor shortly. |
| Specification of the grid system used. The grid system is MGA_GDA94, zone 50 for easting, northing and RL. |
|
| Quality and adequacy of topographic control. The topography of the mined open pits is well defined by historic monthly survey pickups |
|
| Data spacing and distribution |
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. The drill hole spacing is approximately 40-100 metres between drill sections. |
| Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied. Data spacing and distribution are sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for JORC(2012) classifications applied. |
|
| Whether sample compositing has been applied. For RC samples, sample compositing occurred over 4 metre intervals. |
|
| Orientation of data in relation to geological structure |
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type. The mineralisation strikes generally north-south and dips to the west at between -50 to -70 degrees. The drill orientation was 090 degrees and -60 dip. Drilling is believed to be generally perpendicular to strike. |
| If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should 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 in the field samples are packed into polyweave bags and despatched to the laboratory. For a large number of samples these bags were transported by the Company directly to the assay laboratory. In some cases the sample were delivered by a transport contractor the assay laboratory. The assay laboratory audits the samples on arrival and reports any discrepancies back to the Company. No such discrepancies occurred. |
| Audits or reviews |
The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data. No audits have yet been completed. |

| Geology | The Youanmi Project straddles a 40km strike length of the | ||||||||
| Youanmi Greenstone Belt, lying within the Southern Cross | |||||||||
| Province of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton in Western | |||||||||
| Australia. The greenstone belt is approximately 80km long | |||||||||
| and 25km wide, and incorporates an arcuate, north-trending | |||||||||
| major crustal structure termed the Youanmi Fault Zone. This | |||||||||
| structure separates two discordant greenstone terrains, with | |||||||||
| the stratigraphy to the west characterised by a series of | |||||||||
| weakly deformed, layered mafic complexes (Windimurra, | |||||||||
| Black Range, Youanmi and Barrambie) enveloped by | |||||||||
| strongly deformed, north-northeast trending greenstones. | |||||||||
| Gold mineralisation is developed semi-continuously in shear | |||||||||
| zones over a strike length of 2,300m along the western | |||||||||
| margin of the Youanmi granite. | |||||||||
| The Youanmi gold lodes are invariably associated with a high | |||||||||
| pyrite and arsenopyrite content and the primary ore is | |||||||||
| partially to totally refractory. | |||||||||
| There are a series of major fault systems cutting through the | |||||||||
| Youanmi trend mineralisation that have generated some | |||||||||
| Deposit | type, | geological setting |
and style |
of | significant off-sets. | ||||
| mineralisation. | The Youanmi Deeps project area is subdivided into three | ||||||||
| main areas or fault blocks by cross-cutting steep south-east | |||||||||
| trending faults; and these are named Pollard, Main, and Hill | |||||||||
| End from south to north respectively. | |||||||||
| Granite hosted gold mineralisation occurs at several sites, | |||||||||
| most notably the Plant Zone Prospect, located immediately | |||||||||
| north-northeast of the Main Pit and processing plant. Gold | |||||||||
| mineralization occurs as free particles within the sulphide- | |||||||||
| poor stockwork quartz veining, controlled by shallow west | |||||||||
| dipping shear zones, within a deeply weathered granite host. | |||||||||
| Mineralised envelopes extend over a strike length of at least | |||||||||
| 1,200m. | |||||||||
| The Commonwealth-Connemarra mineralised trend is | |||||||||
| centred 4km northwest of the Youanmi plant. The geology | |||||||||
| comprises a sequence of folded mafic and felsic volcanic | |||||||||
| rocks intercalated with BIF and intruded by granite along the | |||||||||
| eastern margin. Gold mineralisation is developed over a | |||||||||
| 600m strike length, associated with a north trending and | |||||||||
| steeply west dipping shear zone that traverses the northwest | |||||||||
| trending succession. | |||||||||
| Drill hole | A summary | of all information | material to | the | |||||
| Information | understanding | of the exploration results including a | |||||||
| tabulation | of the following information | for all Material drill | |||||||
| holes: | |||||||||
| • | easting and northing of the | drill hole collar | |||||||
| • | elevation or RL | (Reduced | Level – elevation | Refer to drill results Table/s and the Notes attached thereto. | |||||

| collar | |||||||||
| • | dip and azimuth | of the hole | |||||||
| • | down hole length and interception depth | ||||||||
| • | hole | length. | |||||||
| 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. |
All reported assay intervals have been length weighted. No top cuts have been applied. A lower cut-off of 0.5g/t Au was applied. See Notes to Table/s. |

|---|---|
| Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. High grade intervals internal to broader zones of mineralisation are reported as included intervals. See Table/s. |
|
| The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. No metal equivalent values have been used or reported. |
|
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole 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 (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not known’). No definite relationships between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths are known from this drilling due to the highly weathered nature of the material sampled. |
| 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. Refer to Figures and Table in the text. |
| 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. Representative reporting of both low and high grades and widths is practiced. |
| Other substantive exploration data |
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances. All meaningful and material information has been included in the body of the announcement. |
| Further work | The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling). Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive Further work (RC and diamond drilling) is justified to locate extensions to mineralisation both at depth and along strike. |
