S2 Resources Ltd (“S2” or the “Company”) advises initial diamond drilling of the Storgroven prospect has identified a VMS-prospective horizon containing lenses of massive and stringer sulphides strongly anomalous in precious metals. Results have been received for three of the eight holes drilled at Storgroven, with the best intercept being 15.7m @ 0.8g/t gold and 6g/t silver. Historical drilling at the nearby Aliden prospect has defined similar mineralization with intercepts of up to 23.4m @ 1.5g/t gold and 41g/t silver. An electromagnetic (EM) survey has also identified two conductors immediately to the south of and subparallel to the recent drilling at Storgroven that have not yet been tested. Assays are pending for a further five holes and the rig is currently drilling two lines of reconnaissance holes at the Onusberget prospect.
Storgroven/Aliden
Results have been received for three of the eight holes drilled as a preliminary test of the Storgroven base of till gold-silver anomaly announced on 6[th] February 2018. Hole SSTG180001 intersected a zone of hydrothermally altered and brecciated felsic volcanics with stringer to massive pyritic sulphide zones beneath the peak of the base of till anomaly. The core of this zone comprises an intercept of 15.7m @ 0.8 g/t gold and 6 g/t silver from 25m downhole.
North Wing, Level 2, 1 Manning Street, Scarborough WA 6019, Australia PO Box 1059 Scarborough WA 6922, Australia ABN 18 606 128 090 T +61 8 6166 0240 F 61 8 6241 4299 E [email protected] W www.s2resources.com.au
The next two holes (SSTG180002 and 3), drilled 40 metres east and 40 metres north of SSTG180001 respectively, did not intersect the same sulphide zone and did not intersect significant mineralization. Results for the remaining five holes are awaited (see Figure 1).
A ground electromagnetic (EM) survey has since identified two conductors just to the south of, and subparallel to, SSTG180001 (see Figure 1). These have yet to be tested.

Receipt of historical drilling data from the Aliden prospect, located within the same prospective stratigraphy some 450 metres south along strike from Storgroven, has confirmed the presence of similar style mineralization, with several gold-silver mineralized intercepts including 23.4m @ 1.5g/t gold, 41g/t silver and 1.5% zinc from 57.2 metres in hole SKOGH06 drilled in 1969 beneath a VMS lens first identified by trenching in the 1930’s. The historical drilling at Aliden is summarized in Table 1.3 and the location of this drilling is shown in Figure 2.
Holmtjarn/Granbergs
Five holes have been completed on two of the targets at the Holmtjarn and Granbergs prospects (see Figure 3), based on a combination of induced polarization (IP) and base of till anomalies announced on 20[th] December 2017.
These holes confirmed the presence of a strongly altered and sulphide enriched felsic volcanic horizon (probably the same horizon as that at Storgroven and Aliden some 5 kilometres to the southeast) but did not intersect significant intervals of mineralization.

Onusberget
Initial reconnaissance drilling is underway at the Onusberget prospect (see ASX presentation of 21st November 2017). This comprises two traverses of three holes each with the primary objective of defining the source of gold and copper anomalism identified in surface geochemical sampling completed in summer.

SECTION 1: SAMPLING TECHNIQUES AND DATA
| 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. |
Base of Till (BoT) drilling is undertaken by Moreenityo Macklin Oy of Sattanen, Finland. Holes are drilled to bedrock or blade refusal and a 20cm sample is collected at the end of hole for geochemical analysis and lithological logging. Drilling is undertaken using Arctic Drilling of Rovaniemi, Finland or by Oy Kati AB of Kalajoki Finland drilling NQ2 rod size with a DDH size of 75.7mm and core size of 50.7mm. NQ2 core samples are logged and marked up by S2 personnel. Unbiased core sample intervals were cut in half by diamond saw with half core sent for analysis at ALS Laboratories. All rock grab and rock float samples are collected from outcrop by S2 personnel and marked into sample books and a representative portion of the sample retained. All are forwarded for analyses by ALS Laboratories. |
| Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used |
Sampling and QAQC procedures are carried out using S2 protocols as per industry best practice. |
|
| 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 |
Diamond drilling was used to obtain core samples that have been cut and sampled on intervals that are determined by lithology and mineralisation. The drill core samples are sent to ALS Laboratories for analyses for gold and base metals. Drill core is sampled at S2’s facilities in Mala, Sweden. |
|
| Drilling techniques | Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole | Base of Till drilling is by a percussion flow through sample bit that can collect a 20cm sample of bedrock material at the base of glacial deposits up to 20m thick. Diamond drilling with NQ2 wireline bit producing a 50.7mm diameter core. |

| 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). |
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
| Drill sample recovery |
Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed |
BoT samples are visually inspected to assess if they are likely to be a basement sample or whether the hole has failed to reach basement due to boulders or excessive cover thickness. Diamond Drill core recoveries are visually estimated qualitatively on a metre basis and are recorded in the database. |
| Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples |
Sample quality is qualitatively logged on a metre basis, recording sample condition. |
|
| 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. |
No relationship has been seen to exist | |
| 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. |
The logging uses a standard legend developed by S2 which is suitable for wireframing. Exploration holes are not geotechnically logged but resource holes are. |
| Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography. |
All core has been photographed both dry and wet. Geological logging of the diamond drill holes is onto physical log sheets followed by importing into S2’s central database |
|
| The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged |
All drill 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. |
Core sawn in half and half core taken. |
| If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. |
Bot samples are dried and sieved at 2mm and the fine fraction submitted for assay. The coarse fraction is retained and logged |
|
| For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique. |
Samples were delivered by S2 personnel to ALS Minerals laboratory in Mala, Sweden. All samples were forwarded to ALS Minerals Ojebyn, Sweden Laboratory where they are to be crushed with >70% <2mm (code CRU-31), split by riffle splitter (code SPL-21), and pulverised 1000grm to 85% <75 um (code PUL-32). Crushers and pulverizers are washed with QAQC tests undertaken (codes CRU-QC, PUL-QC). The prepared samples are forwarded to ALS Minerals Loughrea, Ireland, for analysis. |
|
| Quality control procedures adopted for all sub- sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. |
Full QAQC system in place to determine accuracy and precision of assays |
|
| 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 DDH’s non biased core cutting through using an orientation line marked on core and cut to the line |
|
| Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. |
Samples of appropriate size | |
| 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. |
All samples were analysed by ALS Minerals Loughrea, Ireland. Samples analysed for gold undergo a 50g fire assay with AA finish (code Au-AA26). Samples analysed for Ag, As, Bi, Ca, Cd, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mg, Mn, Mo, Ni, P, Pb, S, Sb, Tl & Zn undergo an oxidising digestion with ICP-AES Finish (code ME-ICPORE). |
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
| 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 tools were used to determine any element concentrations. |
|
| 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. |
Full QAQC system in place including Certified Standards and blanks of appropriate matrix and levels |
|
| Verification of sampling and assaying |
The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel. |
Andy Thompson has personally inspected all drill cores and rock samples. |
| The use of twinned holes. | A second BoT hole was drilled within 3m of the initial high value sample that returned 1.1g/t gold at Storgroven to assess the repeatability of the sample. The repeated BoT hole returned 2.2g/t gold in a similar lithology. |
|
| Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols. |
Primary sampling data is collected in a set of standard Excel templates. The information is managed by S2’s database manager for validation and compilation into S2’s central database. |
|
| Discuss any adjustment to assay data. | No adjustments made | |
| Location of data points |
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. |
BoT collars were located with a handheld GPS with an accuracy of within 3 metres. |
| Specification of the grid system used. | The grid system used is the Standard Swedish National Grid – SWEREF 99 TM unless otherwise stated. |
|
| Quality and adequacy of topographic control. | Excellent quality topographic maps produced by the Swedish Authorities - Landmateriat |
|
| Data spacing and distribution |
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. | Drill holes are BoT geochemical samples at this stage and drilled to define geochemical and geophysical targets. No set spacing of drillholes at this stage. |
| 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 is not sufficient at this stage to allow the estimation of mineral resources. |
|
| Whether sample compositing has been applied. | No sample compositing has been applied | |
| 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. |
Drillhole orientation is designed to test geophysical targets and is not necessarily drilled perpendicular to the orientation of the intersected mineralisation. |
| 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. |
The drilling at this stage is preliminary and exploratory. It is not possible to assess if any sample bias has occurred due to hole orientation at this stage. |
|
| Sample security | The measures taken to ensure sample security. | Chain of custody is managed by S2 personnel. Drill samples and core is visually checked at the drill rig and then transported to S2’s logging and cutting facilities by S2 personnel for logging, cutting and sampling. Bagged samples are transferred to ALS Laboratories in Malå, Sweden by S2 personnel. |
| Audits or reviews | The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data. |
No audits or reviews have been conducted at this stage. |

SECTION 2 REPORTING OF EXPLORATION RESULTS
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| Mineral tenement and land tenure status |
Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material issues with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests, historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings. |
The Holmtjarn and Granbergs prospects are located with the Holmtjarn nr 401 licence. The Storgroven prospect is located within the Petitrask 402 Exploration Licence. The exploration licences are 100% owned by S2 Sverige AB, a Swedish registered 100% owned subsidiary of S2. |
| The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area. |
All of the Exploration Licences are in good standing and no known impediments exist on the tenements being actively explored. |
|
| Exploration done by other parties |
Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. |
Storgroven is approximately 450m north of an historic VMS prospect named Aliden that was trenched in the 1930’s and drilled by Boliden in 1969 by a total of 20 holes. The drillhole collars at Aliden have been GPS located and are 450m south of the Storgroven anomaly. Assay and collar information of historic drilling with significant intersection is tabulated in the main text. Two historic Boliden holes were drilled close to the Storgroven soil anomaly, these collars have not been field verified. The Boliden historic holes have not been sighted but the data has been assessed and is considered of an excellent standard albeit to standards of a major mining and processing company during the 1960’s rather than contemporary JORC standards. Minor historic trenching has been located 500m south east. |
| Geology | Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. |
The area occupies the central portion of the Skellefte Belt, a productive base and precious metal mining district dominated by bimodal volcanics, primarily felsic in composition. The mineralisation style is structurally remobilised volcanogenic massive sulphide style mineralisation within greenschist grade metamorphic rocks. |
| Drill hole Information |
A summary of all information material to the 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 above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar dip and azimuth of the hole down hole length and interception depth hole length. |
Refer to sample plans in text. |
| 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 intersections of drilling undertaken by S2 have been length weighted and density weighted. A nominal 0.5g/t Au, 1% Zn or 0.5% Cu lower cut-off is used for diamond drill intersections (unless otherwise stated in polymetallic intersections). |
| 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. |
|
| The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
None used. |
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
| 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’). |
The trend of mineralisation at the targets/prospects described is not known at present. Planned diamond drilling will determine this. Refer to figures in body of text. |
| Diagram | 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 in body of 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. |
All results considered significant are reported. |
| 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. |
Geological mapping by Dr Tobias Bauer of Lulea University has been used to help determine the prospective sediment / volcanic contact and cross faults. |
| 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 |
Drilling at Storgroven is possible in winter and summer. Results from all 8 holes will be assessed and further drilling testing of plunge extensions and EM plates planned if appropriate. |
