ASX Announcement 10 June 2021
EM SURVEYS DEFINE PROSPECTIVE CONDUCTORS AT FIRE DRAGON
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Moving Loop Electromagnetic (MLEM) surveys have been completed at the Fire Dragon NickelCopper target within the Biranup Project, located in the world class Albany Fraser Orogen (AFO).
-
17 Survey lines were completed across 4 high priority targets highlighted by SPECTREM Airborne Electromagnetic (AEM) surveys and geophysical data re-processing by the Company.
-
Preliminary review of the MLEM survey data has defined a good quality late time EM conductive response at FD1, with conductive responses also observed at FD2 and FD4.
-
Preliminary EM modelling at FD1 suggest a moderately dipping strong basement conductor with a strike length of 800m. modelling and analysis of anomalies at FD2 and FD4 are continuing.
-
A cluster of conductors is appearing in the Fire Dragon target area which is encouraging for magmatic nickel-copper sulphide deposits where orebodies usually form in clusters.
-
Final review, modelling and analysis to be completed in the coming weeks in preparation for a fully funded diamond and diamond with RC drill-collar program.
-
The initial drill program is being designed to test and expand previously identified massive sulphides at Fire Dragon and the now enhanced FD1 target, and to test MLEM conductors at the FD1-FD4 targets, with Downhole Electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys also planned.
NickelX Limited (“NickelX”, “NKL” or “the Company”) is pleased to report that MLEM Surveys have been completed ahead of schedule across four high priority targets on E39/1828. 17 lines of MLEM were conducted focussed on the FD1-FD4 AEM conductive anomalies, where the Company is seeking magmatic Nickel-Copper deposits in the AFO.
The MLEM surveys were designed to better define the four high priority targets identified from a SPECTREM AEM survey flown by previous explorers and reprocessed by Southern Geoscience Consultants for the Company. Three 1[st] order conductivity targets (FD1, FD2 and FD4; Figures 2 and 3) were followed up by MLEM surveys to test the conductivity anomalies and define targets for drill testing.
The MLEM conductive anomalies detected at FD1, FD2 and FD4 are all suggestive of basement sources with preliminary modelling on FD1 suggesting a conductor located down dip of previously identified EM conductors at Fire Dragon. Final review, modelling and analysis is continuing with results to be released in the coming weeks.
An EIS co-funded diamond drilling program at the Fire Dragon nickel target is being organised with DDH1 for a 4 hole 1,212m diamond and diamond with RC pre-collar program. Approval for a Program of Works (POW) has been received for this and a wider 5,000m drill program.
NickelX Managing Director Matt Gauci commented:
“Following efficient and safe mobilisation to site so soon after the Company’s listing, the NickelX team have better defined both previously generated and newly identified high priority targets on E39/1828. The preliminary MLEM results have returned strong discrete conductive responses at the FD1, FD2 and FD4 AEM conductive anomalies with further interpretation ongoing to systematically guide our impending drill program where a POW has been lodged and drillers appointed”.

Biranup Nickel Project Overview
The Biranup Project is comprised of six granted exploration licenses (EL’s) covering a total area of ~400km[2] and is located at the north-eastern Albany Fraser Orogen (AFO), where previous work has identified 20+ EM conductors, including 4 high priority targets, that are considered highly prospective for magmatic nickel-copper mineralisation. The high priority Fire Dragon nickel target has been the subject of an AEM survey, ground MLEM survey and very limited drilling by previous explorers, which intersected semimassive to massive sulphides (including pentlandite and chalcopyrite), from a limited 4-hole program.
The AFO is still considered an emerging mineral belt as nickel-copper discoveries continue after only 10 years from the discovery of the Nova-Bollinger deposit. Total mineral endowment of the AFO is approximately 0.3Mt contained nickel-copper, whereas more mature belts, such as the Thompson Belt in Canada, have been explored for more than 40 years with total mineral endowment of 2.7Mt contained nickel. Discoveries continue to be made in the AFO including the Silver Knight deposit (Creasy Group), Mawson’s deposit (Legend Mining Limited) and the Orion target (IGO Limited).

JORC Code Table 1 for Biranup Project
The following tables are provided to ensure compliance with the JORC Code (2012 Edition) requirements for the reporting of the Exploration Results at the Biranup and Ponton Projects.
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 downhole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. |
All references to airborne electromagnetic data acquisition and sampling are taken from reports and documents prepared by previous explorers. They have been reviewed by NKL and considered, in the Competent Person’s opinion, to provide sufficient confidence that sampling was performed to adequate industry standards and is fit for the purpose of planning exploration programs and generating targets for investigation. Refer to ASX releases by NKL on 11thMay 2021. Wireline Services Group MLEM data was acquired in-loop with 200m x 200m loops moved 100m for each reading. Transmission frequency was 1Xz from a TTX2, petrol generator system- 100A/250V transmitter. A SMARTem24 receiver was used with a EMIT B-Field Fluxgate sensor to collect data. Data was repeated three times and results stacked to minimise noise to data ration. |
| Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. |

| 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 details and status of NKL’s exploration licences and exploration licence applications are provided in the body of the Announcement. NKL’s tenements cover unallocated crown land on the western edge of the sparsely populated Great Victoria Desert. No pastoral leases exist at the Biranup Project. The same is true for any sensitive historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings. The Biranup Project area falls within a native title claim by the Nangaanya-ku Native Title Claim Group. |
| 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. |
NKL’s granted tenements E38/3191, E38/3294, E39/1828, E39/2000, E39/2001 and E39/2003 are 100% owned by NKL. The tenements are in good standing and NKL is unaware of any impediments for exploration on these licences. |
|
| Exploration done by other parties |
Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. |
Previous exploration has been completed on NKL’s projects by a variety of companies. Refer to NKL ASX announcements dated May 11th2021 and June 1st2021. |
| Geology | Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. |
NKL’s Projects are located in the eastern Albany- Fraser Orogen, Western Australia, a poorly outcropping, ca. 1,200 km-long, arcuate, Neoarchean to Mesoproterozoic fold belt that developed along the southern and south-eastern margins of the Archean Yilgarn Craton and upon a Yilgarn-like Archean basement. The orogen records a long history of extensional tectonics (basins, magmatism) as well as thrust tectonics (long-lived structures) and is dominated by high-grade metamorphic (amphibolite to granulite facies) mafic and felsic gneisses and granite and mafic- ultramafic intrusive plutons and complexes. Target mineralisation is magmatic nickel-copper-cobalt systems such as Nova-Bollinger. Orogenic and possible intrusion-related gold systems may also be found in the area. |
