  • Drilling of MMI gold geochemistry targets intersects gold beneath barren overburden

  • High resolution ground magnetic survey drives gold mineralisation model development

  • Gold mineralisation interpreted to be fold and fault related, greatly expanding potential area for discovery

  • Gold mineralisation remains open to the north, south-east and depth

Surefire Resources NL ( ASX:SRN, SRNOC ) is delighted to announce continuing wide drilling intersections from recent exploration work on the Yidby Road Gold Project (Figure 1).

Twenty-two (22) Reverse Circulation (RC) holes for 2,298m have been completed to:

  1. follow up of discovery drilling at the Yidby Road gold deposit; and

  2. initial testing of a number of Mobile Metal Ions (MMI) gold anomalies.

Drilling of MMI gold anomalies

A Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) geochemistry survey was completed in the discovery area in 2021 highlighting many separate drilling targets.

A total of seventeen (17) RC holes for 1,271m were drilled to test several of the MMI gold anomalies as shown in Figure 3, below. Initial drilling results have successfully intersected shallow and wide down hole zones of gold mineralisation.

Drillhole YBRC033 has returned a shallow wide intercept of 15m @ 0.38g/t gold from 15m beneath an MMI anomaly (Figure 4) on drilling cross section 6751740. This gold mineralised zone is interpreted to continue approximately 320m to the north-west along a prominent shear where RC holes YBRC018 ( 4m @ 0.38g/t Au from 23m) immediately beneath the barren transported overburden, and YBRC 024 ( 17m @ 0.43g/t from 47m) respectively. The area is masked by approximately 20m of barren transported overburden, refer to Figure 5 below.

The gold in drilling intersections confirm that the MMI method is working in this area with barren transported overburden. Further MMI gold anomalies will be drill tested with the resumption of drilling activities at Yidby in 2022.

High resolution ground magnetic survey aids in developing gold model

The Yidby gold mineralisation is a blind discovery; the area is covered by up to 20 metres of barren transported overburden that overlies and masks the gold mineralisation.

During December 2021 Surefire completed a high-resolution ground magnetic survey over the discovery area. The survey, undertaken at a line spacing of 10m with a continuous recording magnetometer, was designed to assist in the interpretation of the gold intercepts obtained from recent and past RC drilling.

The interpretation of the ground magnetic data by consulting geophysicists, concluded that:

  • the gold is hosted in ultramafics and closely associated with the axial plane of a prominent north-west striking and plunging antiform suggesting that saddle reef style gold also exists on this prospect;

  • major north-west and east-west trending shear zones dissect the host rocks; and

  • secondary north-south and north-north-west trending faults may have acted to remobilise gold to form high grade gold accumulations.

Figure 5 Testing MMI anomalies: Drilling Cross Section 6751950mN.

The gold mineralisation drilled to date lies on the south-western flank of the interpreted antiform. The north-eastern flank of the antiform remains largely undrilled.

An important element of this model is saddle reef gold. Saddle reefs have the potential to host many simultaneous styles of gold mineralisation within the one larger gold mineralised system. Examples from other deposits are (Figure 6 ):

  • Within the axial plane axis as stockwork veins

  • Concordant to bedding

  • Discordant to bedding within shears and faults, and

  • Breccia zones

The exploration work completed to date is focussed on the 1.6km long MMI gold anomalies on the western flank of the antiform. The eastern flank of the antiform is yet to be tested by drilling.

Surefire has now updated the mineralisation model for the Yidby Road Gold Project and is using it to define targets for the next drilling campaign. Importantly, the new interpretation implies the gold mineralisation drilled to date is just one part of a much larger gold, possibly multiphased, gold system.

The recent drilling results support our previous drilling results and the interpretation of wide gold zones at the Yidby Road Gold Project. The Surefire mineralisation model points to the likelihood a high tonnage gold deposit at Yidby. Your company is working diligently towards that goal”, Mr Nikolaenko said.

Drilling Planned to:

  • Drill test the open extensions of the Yidby Road Gold Deposit to both the north and south-east;

  • Drill test additional MMI anomalous exploration zones beneath the barren overburden; and

  • test the Money Anomaly targets generated by the ground magnetic survey and MMI geochemistry.

JORC Code, 2012 Edition:

Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

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.

Include reference to measures taken
to ensure sample representivity and
the appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.

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.
 Reverse Circulation drilling was used
to obtain 1m samples weighing
approximately 3kg from the splitter
on the cyclone and submitted to the
laboratory (Nagrom laboratories).
 The entire sample was crushed to -
2mm then either riffle-split then
pulverised to 95% passing 75 microns
to produce a 50g charge for Fire
Assay gold (Au) analysis.
 Selected samples in zones of lower
prospectivity were composited to 4m
after the crushing stage at the lab
before 50g charge Fire Assay
analysis. Where grades of >0.1 g/t
Au are returned for the composite
the individual 1m samples are
assayed for that zone.
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).
 Reverse Circulation drilling was
completed using a face sampling
hammer.
Drill sample recovery
Method of recording and assessing
core and chip sample recoveries and
results assessed.

Measures taken to maximise sample
recovery and ensure representative
nature of the samples.

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.
 RC drilling was bagged on 1m
intervals and an estimate of sample

of each sample.
 The cyclone is shut off when
collecting the sample and released to
the sample bags at the completion of
each metre to ensure no cross
contamination. If necessary, the
cyclone is flushed out if sticky clays
are encountered.

analysis.
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.

Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or
costean, channel, etc) photography.

The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections logged.
 Geological logging was conducted
per 1m sample with lithologies and
weathering zones being documented
throughout.
 Representative samples from the
“green bags” are sieved and in fresh
rock, washed, and placed in chip
trays for each hole.
Sub-sampling techniques and sample
preparation

If core, whether cut or sawn and
whether quarter, half or all core taken.

If non-core, whether riffled, tube
sampled, rotary split, etc and whether
sampled wet or dry.

For all sample types, the nature,
quality and appropriateness of the
sample preparation technique.

Quality control procedures adopted
for all sub-sampling stages to
maximise samples representivity

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.

Whether sample sizes are appropriate
to the grain size of the material being
sampled.
 Not applicable to this announcement
 Every 1m RC interval was sampled as
a dry primary sample in a calico bag
off the cyclone/splitter.
 Drill sample preparation and analysis
carried out at registered laboratory
(Nagrom Laboratories). Sample
preparation is dry pulverisation to
95% passing 75 microns.
 Field sample procedures involve the
insertion of registered Standards and
duplicates generally every 25m and
offset.
 Sampling is carried out using
standard protocols as per industry
practice.
 Sample sizes range typically from 2
to 3kg and are deemed appropriate
to provide an accurate indication of
gold mineralisation.
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.

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.

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.
 Gold assays at Nagrom Laboratories
in Perth, WA, using a 50g charge for
Fire Assay gold (Au) total analysis.
 Selected samples in zones of lower
prospectivity were composited to 4m
after the crushing stage at the lab
before 50g charge Fire Assay
analysis. Where grades of >0.1 g/t
Au are returned for the composite
the individual 1m samples are
assayed for that zone.
 Field sample procedures involve the
insertion of registered Standards and
duplicates generally every 25m and
offset. Standards and duplicate
assays are also completed at the Lab.
Verification of sampling and assaying
The verification of significant
intersections by either independent or
alternative company personnel.

The use of twinned holes.

Documentation of primary data, data
entry procedures, data verification,
 Selected intersections have been
calculated at various cut-off grades,
including a 0.1g/t minimum cut-off

intersections (e.g. 0.3 g/t Au, 1.0 g/t
Au). Where internal waste is
included, the included zone must
average above the stated cut-off
grade to be across the added
interval.
 Geological and sample data was
entered into spreadsheets on site
and stored on the Company’s
database.
Location of data points
Accuracy and quality of surveys used
to locate drill holes (collar and down-
hole surveys), trenches, mine
workings and other locations used in
Mineral Resource estimation.

Specification of the grid system used.

Quality and adequacy of topographic
control.
 Siting of planned drillholes was
completed using a DGPS and
adjusted with hand-held GPS where
necessary. Final collar locations will
be surveyed using DGPS, which will
also provide topographic data.
 Grid system MGA 2020, Zone 50.
 Downhole surveys have been
completed while drilling on recent
deeper holes using a REFLEX Gyro
Tool. Open hole surveys will be
completed on all previous and
current holes not yet surveyed,
subject to blockages downhole.
Data spacing and distribution
Data spacing for reporting of
Exploration Results.

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.
 Sample data down hole is at no more
than 1m intervals (with selected
intervals composited at the lab).
 Data spacing in terms of pierce
points varies from 25m to 100m from
previous intersections. Assessment
as to whether sufficient data has
been generated to establish the
degree of geological and grade
continuity appropriate for (JORC
2012) Mineral Resource estimation
procedure(s) is underway and, if
necessary, additional drilling will be
carried out to establish continuity.
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.

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.
 Drilling orientation is designed to
test the mineralisation at as close as
possible to orthogonal to the
mineralisation, therefore not biasing
the sampling or intersection lengths.
 All intersections are downhole
widths with the true widths not
determined at this early stage of
exploration.
Sample security
The measures taken to ensure
sample security.
 Samples transported by Company
personnel direct to the Laboratory as
soon aspossible after drilling.
Audits or reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of
sampling techniques and data.
 A full review of QAQC data will be
completed once all results received.

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
Material and should be stated

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. The assumptions used for
any reporting of metal equivalent
values should be clearly stated.
 Selected intersections have been
calculated at various cut-off grades
as shown in Table 1, including a
0.1g/t minimum cut-off for the
“mineralised envelope” and including
“economic” cut-off grades applicable
to the significant intersections (e.g.
0.3 g/t Au, 1.0 g/t Au). Where
internal waste is included, the
included zone must average above
the stated cut-off grade to be across
the added interval.
 No cutting of high-grades has been
carried out.
Relationship between mineralisation
widths and intercept lengths

These relationships are particularly
important in the reporting of
Exploration Results.

If the geometry of the min-
eralisation 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’). _
 Orientation of mineralised zones are
still to be determined in detail. All
intercepts reported are downhole
depths.
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.
 Drillhole locations and interpreted
mineralisation outline are shown in
Figures in the body of the release.
 Appropriate cross sections are shown
in the body of the release.
 Tabulations of hole statistics are
shown in the body of the release.
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 Results.
 Tabulations of hole statistics are
shown in the body of the release..
Other substantive exploration data
Other exploration data, if
meaningful and material, should be
reported including (but not limited
to): geological observations;
geophysical survey results;
