Stellar attracts additional PACE Drill funding
The Board of Stellar is pleased to announce receipt of 50 percent funding, from the South Australian Department of Primary Industry and Resources (PIRSA), for two drilling proposals under the current round of submissions for the Program for Accelerated Exploration (PACE). Under the proposals PACE will provide up to $88,500 for drilling expenses on the Robins Rise iron-oxidecopper-gold (IOCG) project and up to $69,500 for drilling expenses on the Tarcoola Basin base metal project. Under the terms of the PACE agreement, the drilling programs are to be completed before December 2006.
Robins Rise Project
The Robins Rise project includes two exploration licenses in the northern Gawler Craton region, approximately 120 kilometres west of the Prominent Hill IOCG deposit. Detailed gravity surveys carried out over selected aeromagnetic and structural targets during 2005 have outlined a number of gravity anomalies consistent with Prominent Hill style mineralisation. Stellar's PACE proposal involves first pass reverse circulation drill tests of four of these gravity features (Figure 1). Drilling is planned to commence in the first quarter 2006.

Tarcoola Basin Project
The Tarcoola Basin project includes exploration licenses in the Tarcoola region of the central Gawler Craton, where previous work by Stellar has established the presence of widespread low order base metal mineralisation within sediments of the mid-Proterozoic Tarcoola Formation. Detailed analysis by Stellar, in collaboration with PIRSA geologists, has outlined two stratigraphic/structural target positions within the "Cooladding" EL2898 (Figure 2) which are expected to be tested with diamond drilling in the first half of 2006.
