Swedish Cobalt Projects Update
Australian advanced materials technology company, Talga Resources Ltd (“ Talga ” or “ the Company ”) ( ASX:TLG ), is pleased to provide an update on activities and results from the Company’s 100% owned cobalt-copper-gold projects located in northern Sweden. Highlights of recent activities include:
KISKAMA PROJECT
-
All necessary permitting obtained to commence diamond drilling as part of completing the maiden JORC compliant cobalt-copper-gold resource at Kiskama
-
Geophysical surveys (IP and MLEM) commenced to define further extensions to known mineralisation and test high grade drill targets
-
Project extended over prospective new targets including historic rock sample results up to 0.27% cobalt, 0.9% copper and 0.12g/t gold
LAUTAKOSKI PROJECT
-
Drill core sampling extends ‘wildcat’ mineralised intercept to 91.8m @ 0.18% copper and 147ppm cobalt from 14m depth including 21m @ 0.34% copper and 182ppm cobalt (LAU16001R)

EAST AITIK PROJECT
- Talga rock samples return up to 4.8% copper, 1.2g/t gold, 66g/t silver, 0.6% molybdenum plus anomalous levels of tellurium and bismuth
CORPORATE
- Incorporation of 100% owned Swedish subsidiary - Talga Battery Metals AB - completed
• Meetings with potential cobalt customers in Europe and Asia commenced
Talga Managing Director Mark Thompson : “Activities at the Company’s four cobalt-copper-gold projects in Sweden have recommenced with the aim of realising the value opportunity created by growing market demand for responsibly sourced cobalt.
Whilst it is early days, the quantity and grades of cobalt on Talga’s projects are significant and highly encouraging, particularly given the nature of the wide and shallow zones and benefits of the presence of copper and gold credits. The potential of the projects is further enhanced by the close proximity to high-quality infrastructure and low-cost sustainable hydropower, as well as being situated in the same mining district as Europe’s largest copper-gold mine.
The upcoming resource drilling and on-going exploration activities are designed to increase value and assist in identifying the preferred commercialisation options for consideration by the Board. Further, Talga has started receiving interest from downstream battery manufacturers and customers, which may offer separate or parallel opportunities for development of these assets.”

KISKAMA
Talga’s Kiskama Project, renowned as Sweden’s largest undeveloped deposit of cobalt, is located approximately 48km east of the town of Kiruna (see Figure 1). The polymetallic “IOCG” type cobalt (Co) – copper (Cu) – gold (Au) deposit is a 1.2km long mineralised zone, up to 40m wide and defined by 109 drillholes (105 historic holes 1972-80 and 4 Talga holes in 2014). A further 7km strike is yet to be comprehensively drill tested.
In July 2018 the Geological Survey of Sweden classified the Kiskama deposit to be of national interest for exploitation of minerals.
Resource Drilling Works Underway
All permits required to complete the next round of diamond drilling as part of estimating a maiden JORC 2012 mineral resource have been obtained. Talga has planned for 12 drillholes for twinning and infill of the 105 historical holes and Talga’s previous 4 holes for resource calculations. Further drill holes will be used to identify and explore potential structural controls, parallel zones and depth extensions. Drilling is expected to commence in November and the initial resource estimate is expected to be delivered by the end of the year.
The estimation of a JORC resource, with metallurgical data and a contained cobalt inventory, will enable a preliminary economic study and mining permitting to be completed, and form the basis for deeper engagement with stakeholders and potential customers.

Geophysics Commenced
A geophysical campaign has commenced at Kiskama, consisting of Induced Polarisation (“IP”) and Moving Loop Electromagnetic (“MLEM”) with the aim of mapping out sulphide conductors, geological controls, and higher grade extensions.
This follows completion of new analysis of historic geophysical data, resulting in the identification of potential structural controls on mineralisation, coinciding with geochemical targets along strike of the currently drilled zone (See Figures 2 & 3).
Expansion
A further review of historical geochemical and geological data near the Kiskama deposit found significant copper, cobalt and gold mineralisation at several prospects based on historical drilling, geophysics and rock sampling.
An exploration permit was applied and granted over the Airivaara prospect (see Figure 1) where in 2001 rock samples of outcrops returned up to 0.27% Co, 0.9% Cu and 0.12g/t Au from a diopside-biotite rich unit within quartz-rich gneiss.
At the Äijäjärvi permit located approximately 5km south of Talga’s Nunasvaara graphite deposit, a number of historic copper prospects also prospective for cobalt are present. These include Östra Äijäjärvi where 12 diamond drillholes (see Appendix 3, Figure A) were completed by the geological survey of Sweden in 1967- 1969. Significant historical intercepts (see Appendix 3, Table 1 & 2) from Östra Äijäjärvi using a 0.35% Cu cut-off include:
-
15.5m @ 0.98% Cu from 51.3m (67001)
-
18.3m @ 0.69% Cu from 44.3m (67005)
-
11.3m @ 0.50% Cu from 107.9m (69002)
Significant historical intercepts from Östra Äijäjärvi using a 0.70% Cu cut-off include:
-
7.5m @ 1.57% Cu from 57.3m (67001)
-
5.6m @ 1.06% Cu from 44.3m (67005)
In addition to Östra Äijäjärvi there are four copper-molybdenum geochemical anomalies located further to the west (3-4km) at Äijärova and a 800x400m discrete slingram EM anomaly at Haurajärvi located 2km to the east, neither of which have been drill tested. The slingram EM anomaly at Haurajärvi lies coincident with a ring-shaped magnetic anomaly, and all the prospects are located on the peripheral margin of a granite body.
The new prospects add further size and scale potential to Kiskama, with the project area now totalling 41km2.

LAUTAKOSKI
Talga’s Lautakoski Project is located approximately 40km northwest of the town of Pajala in northeastern Sweden (see Figure 1). In 2016 Talga drilled a diamond hole (LAU16001) to test an electromagnetic (“EM”) anomaly, known as Conductor 1 (see ASX:TLG 6 Dec, 2016) for graphite.
The ‘wildcat’ drillhole, tens of kilometres away from any known mineralisation, intercepted a broad zone of copper-cobalt mineralisation within strongly altered and brecciated intermediate-mafic volcaniclastic units. Several thin and low grade graphite units were intercepted amongst the broader base metal mineralisation.

Drillhole Results
In July 2017, Talga completed four new diamond drillholes for a total of 560.9m. Three of the holes (see Figure 5) were designed to follow up the mineralisation intercepted in the 2016 wildcat drillhole (LAU16001) testing Conductor 1. Further, a single hole (LAU17003) tested an EM anomaly 2.5km to the north, called Conductor 2 (see ASX:TLG 6 Dec 2016). The drill core has now been comprehensively assayed and analysed with results as follows:
• LAU16001R
2016 wildcat drillhole LAU16001 was re-entered and extended to a depth of 210m broadening the zone of low-grade copper-cobalt mineralisation, resulting in an intercept of 91.8m @ 0.18% Cu and 147ppm Co from 14.20m, including a higher-grade zone of 21m @ 0.34% Cu and 182ppm Co from 85m reported from the drillhole. The bulk of the mineralisation in LAU16001R is hosted in skarn altered intermediate-mafic volcanoclastics and tuffaceous units, although the higher-grade zone appears to be hosted by a strongly potassium-feldspar altered felsic intrusive unit.
• LAU17001
Drillhole LAU17001 was a 50m step-out hole drilled to 199m before ending due to drilling difficulties within a shear zone. The drillhole intercepted a strongly structurally deformed or brecciated unit high in the hole before passing into lithologies similar to those intercepted in LAU16001R. Several narrow zones of weak copper-cobalt mineralisation were intercepted down to a depth of ~137m. From 156m a broader zone of weak copper-cobalt mineralisation was intercepted including 37m @ 0.12% Cu and 118ppm Co . The hole terminated within a graphite breccia unit prior to reaching the target depth of 300m.
• LAU17002
LAU17002 was a 50m step-out ‘scissor hole’ completed to a depth 122m and designed to advance the understanding of the geometry and orientation of both the lithologies and mineralisation. The upper part of LAU17002 intercepted similar geological units to those intercepted in LAU16001R and similar copper-cobalt grades, including an intercept of 47.33m @ 0.13% Cu and 148ppm Co from 11m. The latter half of the drillhole intercepted a broad zone of graphite breccia.
• LAU17003
Conductor 2, located 2.5km north of Conductor 1, was tested with a single drillhole (LAU17003) which was completed to a depth of 130m. Drillhole LAU17003 largely intercepted graphite breccia units interbedded with weakly skarn altered intermediate-mafic volcanoclastics and tuffaceous units before passing into a calcarenite unit. No significant copper-cobalt mineralisation was intercepted, although two narrow zones of lead-zinc mineralisation were intercepted within graphite breccia including an intercept of 1.35m @ 0.94% Pb and 1.6% Zn from 103.7m . The significance of the lead-zinc mineralisation is not yet known, although it is not uncommon for graphite units to contain base metal accumulations and and further work is planned to determine the importance of this intercept.
The broad width and consistent nature of copper and cobalt intercepted in the follow-up drilling at Lautakoski, combined with the amount of alteration (carbonate-k-feldspar-biotite-scapolite) and structural deformation (intense brecciation) of the host rocks provide encouragement that a significant mineralised system may be present at Conductor 1, or nearby. Given the broad zones of disseminated sulphide mineralisation, the Company is currently investigating the suitability of various geophysical techniques to identify new and test the known large number of EM conductors within the broader Lautakoski Project.
Successful definition work is likely to lead to drill testing in the preferred winter months (DecMarch), subject to the timing of any divestment decisions for Talga Battery Metals AB.

AITIK EAST
Talga wholly owns three exploration permits over historic, but undrilled, occurrences of copper, gold, silver, molybdenum and lithium at the Aitik East Project, 25km east of Boliden’s Aitik Cu-Au mine (see Figure 7). Aitik is Europe’s largest base metal mine and mill processing facility with a 36Mt ore per annum capacity.
The Company completed first-pass reconnaissance mapping and sampling of two copper prospects and a lithium prospect late last year to verify the historically reported mineralisation and the samples have now been comprehensively assayed and analysed.
Surface Sampling Results
Rock chip samples from outcrop were collected across two separate copper prospects, Suorravaara and Vähävaara, located approximately 2.5km apart. At both prospects, visible copper-molybdenum mineralisation disseminated in outcropping quartz-biotite gneiss and in veins were identified. Vähävaara mineralisation comprises abundant visible bornite and molybdenite in addition to secondary azurite, malachite and possible chalcanthite (see Figure 8).
Significant assay results included:
-
4.8% Cu , 0.7g/t Au , 66g/t Ag , 0.3% Mo , 9.3ppm Te and 462ppm Bi (A24349)
-
3.3% Cu , 0.7g/t Au , 57g/t Ag , 0.6% Mo , 6.2ppm Te and 305ppm Bi (A24380)
-
2.8% Cu , 1.2g/t Au , 42g/t Ag , 0.6% Mo , 6.0ppm Te and 253ppm Bi (A24381)
-
2.2% Cu , 0.7g/t Au , 44g/t Ag , 0.5% Mo , 7.1ppm Te and 349ppm Bi (A24382)
At Suorravaara, the copper mineralisation is hosted in a quartz-biotite gneissic unit sitting directly beneath an overlying flat pegmatite sheet. The copper is largely present as azurite and malachite and rock chip results returned peak assay results of 0.57% Cu, 0.38g/t Au and 12.25g/t Ag (A24345).
Several grab rock samples of the outcropping, flat-lying pegmatite sheet confirmed lithium minerals were also present with peak assay returned of:
- 1,150ppm Li , 350ppm Cs , 48ppm Ta and 790ppm Rb (A24344)

Conclusion and Next Steps
The initial results from the Aitik East Project have demonstrated that high grades of coppermolybdenum-gold-silver still outcrop in this under explored but highly prospective region. Although there is no significant cobalt in the samples to date, the high tenor of base and precious metal grades and trace elements (tellurium and bismuth) is highly encouraging. The proximity to the giant Aitik copper mine, and the nearby Boliden-owned Nautanen deposit to the northwest (indicated resource of 8.2Mt @ 1.7% CU, 0.9g/t Au, 5g/t Ag) add significant potential for a discovery within Talga’s Aitik East Project.
Next steps including surface/till geochemistry in addition to further mapping and sampling towards potential drill testing at the Aitik East Project are subject to the timing of any divestment decisions for Talga Battery Metals AB.
CORPORATE
As previously announced (see ASX:TLG 9 May 2018) Talga commenced an internal restructure of its assets, separating the Company’s suite of highly prospective cobalt and base metal projects (metals) from its graphene-graphite projects (carbons). With the incorporation of Talga Battery Metals AB now completed, the various non-graphite-graphene projects will be transferred into this wholly owned Swedish domiciled subsidiary.
Talga has received considerable interest in its cobalt assets from traders, end-users and battery makers seeking new sources of preferably responsibly sourced cobalt supplied from high quality jurisdictions. Discussions have commenced with several groups in Europe and Asia to assess their potential participation in future project development pathways.

JORC CODE 2012 EDITION 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. • 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 30g 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. |
• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • Sampling method is half-core sampling of WL66 diamond drill core. Quarter-core sampling utilised where a duplicate sample has been taken. • Sampling was carried out under Talga’s’ sampling protocols and QAQC procedures as per industry best practice. • Diamond drilling completed using WL66 coring equipment. Drillholes have been sampled on geological intervals or nominal 1m or 2m intervals where appropriate (approx. 3kg/sample). All samples have been crushed, dried and pulverised (total prep) to produce a sub sample for multi-element analysis by four acid digest with ICPMS/OES, total graphitic carbon by Leco and fire assay and AAS for gold. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • The diamond drillholes were sampled based on observed copper mineralisation. • Historic SGU holes, likely WL46 with core diameter of 35mm, were half-cut by hand and chisel and sampled over varying intervals. Samples were assayed for S, Cu, Zn, Pb, As, Bi, Mo, Sn, Ag, Au, Fe, Co, Ni, Mn via an unknown method. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • Rock chip samples taken from both outcrop and historic trench mullock dumps. • Samples with mineralisation observed in hand specimen were preferentially sampled so some sample bias may have been introduced. |
| 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.). |
• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • Diamond drilling completed by Northdrill Oy from Finland. • Diamond drilling completed using WL66 core drilling equipment. • Drillcore was not orientated. • Downhole surveying completed using a Reflex EZTrac survey instrument. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • Historic SGU holes likely WL46 conventional diamond drilling with core diameter of 35mm. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • N/A |
| 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. |
• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • Core recoveries are measured by the drillers for every drill run. The core length recovered is physically measured for each run, recorded and used to calculate the core recovery as a percentage of core recovered. Any core loss is recorded on a core block by the drillers. • No additional measures have been taken to maximise sample recovery. • A sampling bias has not been determined. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • For historic SGU drillholes, core recovery was recorded by the geologists logging the core. • Insufficient data exists for the historic SGU drilling to determine a specific sample bias. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • N/A |

• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • All samples delivered to ALS Global in Malå where the core was cut and sampled. • All samples are half-core except for duplicate samples in which case quarter-core samples have been taken. • The sample preparation follows industry best practice sample preparation; the samples are finely crushed with 70% passing <2mm then reduced in a splitter whereby a reject sample and a 250g sample is produced. The 250g sample is then pulverised with 85% passing <75 microns which completely homogenises the sample. A sub-sample of pulp is taken for digestion in a four-acid digest, total graphitic carbon and fire assay for gold. • Duplicate sampling has been completed at a rate of 1:40 where practicable; duplicate results for all holes are satisfactory. • Certified reference material standards and blanks have been inserted at a rate of 1:20 where practicable; standard and blank results for all holes are within accepted limits. • The sample sizes are considered appropriate for the type of mineralisation under consideration. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • For historical SGU drillholes, core was half-cut by hand and chisel and sampled at varying sample widths generally to mineralisation or geological boundaries. Samples were assayed for S, Cu, Zn, Pb, As, Bi, Mo, Sn, Ag, Au, Fe, Co, Ni, Mn via an unknown method at the SGU laboratory in Stockholm. No other information regarding sample preparation or quality control procedures in known. • Sampling to geological/mineralisation boundaries is considered to be appropriate. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • Samples were hammered off outcrop and mullock dump material using a rock hammer.

• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • All samples are assayed using a four-acid digest multi- element suite (33 elements) with ICPOES or ICPMS finish. The acids used are hydrofluoric, nitric, hydrochloric and perchloric with the method approaching near total digest for most elements. • Selected samples are assayed for total graphitic carbon via Leco furnace. Graphitic carbon is determined by digesting the sample in 50% HCl to evolve carbonate as CO2. Residue is filtered, washed, dried and then roasted at 425⁰C. The roasted residue is analysed for C by high temperature Leco furnace with infrared detection. |

It is believed that the strong structural complexity of the intercepted lithologies may account for incomplete correlation seen in the bottom of drillhole LAU17002 where it intercepted drillhole LAU17001. • All geological and location data is currently stored in Excel spreadsheets. Data entry has been by manual input and validation of the small amount of data has been done by checking input on screen prior to saving. • No adjustments or calibrations were made to any assay data used in this report. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • Talga has not completed re-assaying of the historical SGU drillholes at this stage. • No adjustments or calibrations were made to any of the historical drill intercepts reported in the document. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • No independent third-party assaying or sampling has been undertaken at this stage.

SGU completed an internal mineral resource estimate for the deposit. • No sample compositing has been completed • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • Samples were taken at non-regular intervals according to observations made at the time in the field. |
| 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. |
• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • The orientation is considered appropriate for the sampling completed, with the drill holes drilled perpendicular to the interpreted strike of the geophysical anomalies and likely mineralisation. • The reported mineralised intercepts are downhole widths and are not true widths. The intercepts reported may not represent the true width and should be taken within the context described in the preceding point. • No sample bias as a consequence of orientation-based sampling has been identified. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • The orientation is considered appropriate for the sampling completed, with the drill holes drilled perpendicular to the interpreted strike of the geophysical anomaly and likely mineralisation. • No sample bias as a consequence of orientation based sampling has been identified. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • Samples were taken according to observations made at the time in the field. • No sample bias as a consequence of_orientation-based_ sampling has been identified. • Samples with mineralisation observed in hand specimen were preferentially sampled so some sample bias may have been introduced. |

| Geology | • Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. |
• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • The Cu-Co-Au mineralisation at Lautakoski is hosted in intensely altered (K-feldspar, scapolite, silica, albite) and structurally deformed intermediate-mafic volcanoclastic and tuffaceous sediments. Cobalt, gold and molybdenum mineralisation is broadly co-incident with the copper mineralisation. • Geological evaluation by Talga is ongoing. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • The copper mineralisation at Äijäjärvi Östra is comprised largely of chalcopyrite and minor amounts of pyrite and other miner ore minerals. The mineralisation comprises two lenses hosted in quartzite. • Geological evaluation by Talga is ongoing. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • The copper mineralisation at Aitik East has been described as bornite, azurite, malachite, chalcopyrite and chalcocite and minor molybdenite hosted within intermediate volcanic porphyries, volcanoclastics and agglomerates.

| 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. • 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. |
• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • For this report a nominal lower cut of 0.1% Cu, 0.01% Pb and 0.1% Zn have been used. • Length-weighted averaging has been used to calculate all intercepts in this report. Length-weighted averaging has been used given that sampling intervals were determined geologically and not always nominally. • For all intercepts presented in this report, on cross- sections and tables a maximum_copper_internal dilution of approximately 5m was used. • The copper assays are generally quite consistent throughout the intercepts although the sometimes heterogeneous nature of the mineralisation means that occasionally high-grade values may be diluted by low grade values within the same intercept. • No top cuts have been applied. • No metal equivalent values have been used. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • Historic reported drill intercepts used a combination of a 0.35% Cu cut-off and a 0.7% Cu cut-off using length- weighted averaging. • No aggregations applied. • No top cuts applied. • No metal equivalents used. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • No aggregations applied. • No metal equivalents applied. |
| Relationshi p between mineralisati on 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’). |
• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • The orientation or geometry of the mineralised zone at Lautakoski is not currently fully understood. All drillholes used have been drilled perpendicular to the strike of the geophysical anomaly. The strong structural deformation of the lithologies intercepted to date and the current drill spacing of 50m has not enabled a definitive relationship to be drawn between mineralisation and the intercept lengths as yet. • All intercepts reported are downhole widths, true widths are not yet known. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • The orientation or geometry of the copper mineralised zone at Äijäjärvi Östra is quite well understood. All drillholes used have been drilled perpendicular to the strike of the geophysical anomaly and known mineralisation. • All intercepts reported are downhole widths, true widths are not yet known. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • The orientation or geometry of the mineralised zones at Aitik East is not yet known. • No drilling completed to date. |

• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • Appropriate figures, plans, maps and selected drillhole cross-sections have been included in the main body of this report. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • An appropriate map has been included in the main body of this report. • TALGA ROCK CHIP SAMPLING • Appropriate figures, plans and maps have been included in the main bodyof this report. |
| 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. |
• TALGA DIAMOND DRILLING • All significant intercepts above the nominal cut-off grade of 0.1% Cu, 0.01% Pb and 0.1% Zn have been reported. • The report provides the total information available to date and is considered to represent a balanced report. • HISTORIC DIAMOND DRILLING • A selection of significant historical intercepts have been reported as part of an introduction to the prospect. Results using both a lower (0.35% Cu cut-off) and higher grade (0.7% Cu cut-off) have been reported in lieu of reporting all significant drillhole intercepts. |
