ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 12 December 2024

Six Drill Targets Confirmed at Parkinson Dam Prospect IOCG, Epithermal and Porphyry Targets

Highlights

Archimedes Consulting (Archimedes) has completed a second Automatic Curve Matching (“ACM”) geophysical review of the Parkinson Dam project, confirming the prospectivity of the five initial drill targets at the 100% owned Parkinson’ Dam gold project (EL6495) and also identifying a sixth drill target. This review considered recently acquired close-spaced gravity data, as well as the earlier IP and Resistivity data and historical aeromagnetic data. The following geophysical anomalies incorporate epithermal, iron-oxide-copper-gold (“IOCG”) and porphyry drill targets.

Target 1- IOCG target

  • Undrilled, sub-vertical pipe-like feature extending from near surface down to more than 5 kilometres in depth defined by magnetics and gravity.

  • The area of the pipe feature measures approximately 600m x 300m and is surrounded by denser rocks.

Targets 2 (a) and 2(b)- IOCG/ Epithermal / Porphyry targets

  • Target T2(a) Undrilled, sub-vertical pipe-like structure below this elliptical demagnetized zone, interpreted as a hydrothermal fluid feeder to the shallow crustal epithermal field and measures approximately 460m diameter, commences from 32 metres below the surface and extends to a depth of over 2000m.

  • Target T2(b) Undrilled, circular gravity feature outlined at a depth of approximately 700m and extending down to approximately 1,100m, located directly below Tasman drill hole PD 63 which returned 21m downhole at 21g/t Au and 83g/t Ag, including 9m at 31g/t Au & 152g/t Ag[1] (see Tasman ASX announcements 14 June 2007 and 19 June 2007).

  • This low magnetic susceptibility target corresponds laterally with silica-rich

  • epithermal Au-Ag-Pb-Zn mineralization outlined by previous drilling.

Target 3- IOCG target

  • An undrilled, interpreted quasi-coincident pipe-like cluster of magnetic and gravity responses interpreted to be a pipe-like feature that extends to a depth of over 1800m.

Target 4 - IOCG target

  • Magnetic Target T4- undrilled interpreted magnetic pipe feature offset of gravity high.

  • An angled drillhole from west to east (200m-300m TD) is planned to intersect the pipe and contact the denser body to the east.

Target 5- IOCG target

  • Magnetic Target T5 is an undrilled, strong gravity feature coincident with an interpreted pipe-like high magnetic susceptibility feature extending from near surface to over 1500m.

Discussion

Archimedes has completed a second ACM review confirming six highly prospective drill targets. This survey, utilising the new high-resolution gravity data (figures 2a- 2d), allowed the five magnetic Targets T1, T2a, T3, T4 and T5, to be further evaluated, and drill holes to be designed. For each target T1-T5, drillhole location, depth and the hole trajectory were designed to test the mineralisation. Adjacent to T2a, a sixth drill target (T2b) directly beneath the earlier drill hole PD63 was also identified.

EW view from the south of the clusters of Magnetic Sources & Pseudo-Magnetic Sources detected by ACM with high magnetic & pseudo-magnetic susceptibilities respectively. The cluster of dense material shown in blue is around the edge at top 200m of Target T1.

(Source: Archimedes Consulting, Interpretation of High-Resolution Gravity Data Using ACM & Integration with Targets Detected from Magnetics & IPO in the Previous Study, December 2024).

Magnetic Target T1 is a deeply extending (>5km) subvertical cluster of ACM high magnetic susceptibility responses forming a pipe-like feature that is adjacent to, but slightly separated from a prominent NNW trending Gairdner Dyke.

At the location of Magnetic Target T1, the new gravity data shows close correlation between this pipe-like feature detected by ACM from magnetics and coincident anomalism in Bouguer Gravity, 1VD of Bouguer Gravity and Residual gravity.

A 350m drillhole is proposed, angled towards the east, to test the centre of this pipe-like ACM feature, Magnetic Target T1.

DRILL TARGETS T2 (a) and T2(b) Epithermal / Porphyry/ IOCG targets

In the previous study (Project-1), a region of anomalously low magnetic susceptibility and shallow ACM responses was recorded as corresponding, in lateral and depth extent, to the silica-rich epithermal Au-Ag-Pb-Zn mineralisation field known from drilling. Target T2(a) was identified as an ACM pipe-like feature within and below this elliptical demagnetised zone and epithermal field and was interpreted as a hydrothermal fluid feeder to the shallow crustal epithermal field.

Target T2(b) is the newly interpreted 500-metre-wide radius, circular gravity structure directly beneath drill hole PD 63. This drill hole encountered high grade gold and silver (21m at 21g/t Au and 83g/t Ag, including 9m down hole at 31g/t Au & 152g/t Ag), that is interpreted as potentially being a porphyry intrusion at a depth of approximately 700 metres (Figure 4a).

Magnetic Target T2 (figure 4d) occurs below a region of shallow, anomalously low magnetic susceptibility responses detected by ACM from magnetic data in Project-1.

  • The low magnetic susceptibility ACM responses correspond laterally to the silica-rich epithermal Au-Ag-Pb-Zn mineralization documented by Tasman’s drilling.

  • Magnetic Target T2 is a pipe-like subvertical cluster of ACM high magnetic susceptibility responses below this elliptical demagnetized zone, interpreted as a

hydrothermal fluid feeder to the shallow crustal epithermal field measuring approximately 400m in diameter and extending from near surface to over 2000m deep.

  • An annulus of higher density responses derived from application of ACM to new, highresolution gravity data (Project-2) surrounds the Magnetic Target T2 suggesting a concentric alteration pattern.

  • Circular features were outlined from the ACM-Gravity at a depth of -200m BMSL and -650m BMSL, in a very close location to the ACM detected magnetic pipe-like feature (Project-1). See Figures 4a- 4c above.

  • A vertical drillhole to 400m depth is proposed to test Target T2(a).

  • A second vertical drillhole - to 700m depth is proposed to test Target T2(b) located directly below PD63. If possible, this drill hole will re-enter PD63 which was drilled to a depth of 421m and extend it down to 700m.

DRILL TARGET T3 – IOCG Target

  • Magnetic Target T3 (figure 6) is a quasi-coincident pipe-like cluster of ACM magnetic and gravity responses. This pipe-like feature extends to over 1800m deep.

  • This feature is adjacent to a prominent NNW trending Gairdner Dyke that complicates the interpretation.

  • A 350m deep vertical drillhole is proposed to test Target T3.

DRILL TARGET T4 – IOCG/ Epithermal Target

  • TARGET T4 At the location of Magnetic Target T4, the ACM magnetic pipe-like feature is offset to the west from a gravity high.

  • ACM-Gravity solutions show a possibly denser body to the east of Target T4, which coincides with large gravity high to the east of this target.

  • An angled drillhole from west to east (200m-300m TD) is recommended to intersect the ACM pipe and its contact with the denser body to the east.

Summary

Tasman’s 2005-2007 drilling results from a drilling programme of over 80 holes hit encouraging high grade gold, silver, lead, and zinc epithermal mineralisation in a number of these holes, the best results from which were:

  • PD 63: High grade gold and silver- (21m at 21g/t Au and 83g/t Ag, including 9m down hole at 31g/t Au and 152g/t Ag) and

  • PD 30: High grade lead and zinc - (7.6% Pb, 10.5% Zn, 0.4% Cu, 1.20g/t Au, 120g/t Ag) over 1.66m down hole in first cored hole PD 30.

See Tasman ASX announcements dated 6 November 2006, 14 June 2007 and 19 June 2007[1] .

Despite the great promise shown in Tasman’s original 2006-2007 drilling programme which encountered high grades of mineralisation, Tasman was unable to locate any significant ore body at that time.

1 This information was prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004. It has not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed as last reported.

13

The recent application of Archimedes’ proprietary ACM methodology, firstly analysing the existing magnetic data in Project-1, along with the new gravity data in Project-2, and in both Projects considering the IP and resistivity survey data and the known geological information, from the earliest drilling programme, has now identified at least 6 drill hole targets in the 5 promising target areas.

Based on its analysis, Archimedes has designed the first six drill holes for the initial testing of each of these 6 drill targets in the 5 Target areas, targeting a range of potential IOCG, massive sulphide, epithermal and porphyry mineralisation. Tasman currently plans to drill all of these holes in 2025, subject to raising sufficient funds.

Magnetic Drill Targets T1, T2a, T3, T4 and T5

Magnetic Targets T1, T2a, T3, T4 and T5, form clusters of pipe-like shaped features interpreted as fluid alteration pathways, which appear to coincide with gravity anomalies. The scale of magnetic susceptibility is set out in Table1 below.

Table 1 Magnetic susceptibility classes marked in colours used to detect & map epithermal alteration zones, porphyry stock, feeders & dykes. The highest & lowest values mark the ranges into which susceptibilities computed by ACM were binned. Allocated colours used in the ACM cube are in the right column. (Source; Archimedes Consulting Report for Tasman Resources Ltd, June 2024).

The ACM magnetic responses are interpreted in the ACM geophysical review as ascending porphyry bodies, or upward migrating hydrothermal fluid pathways similar to those observed at a Havieron-like intrusion-related breccia pipe (Figure 9) in which moderately magnetic sulphides such as pyrite and pyrrhotite provide contrasting bulk magnetic susceptibilities to less magnetic host rocks and localised higher densities.

The new, higher resolution gravity data provided a far improved synoptic overview and more precise correlation of the gravity response over the Magnetic Targets detected by ACM and other identified magnetic source clusters. In particular, the arcuate NE-trending Uno Fault is clearly highlighted, differentiating thicker and less dense Gawler Range Volcanics on its northern side from shallower and denser basement rocks on its southern side.

Of note is the Havieron pipe has a dual magnetic and gravity response, but with a plan footprint of just 300m x 600m, it currently hosts 131Mt @ 1.7g/t Au, 0.21% Cu for 7.0Moz Au, 275kt Cu (Source: Greatland Gold Plc website:, https://greatlandgold.com/assets/havieron/).

Acknowledgment and appraisal of
exploration by other parties.
Prior to Tasman’s tenure limited
uranium exploration had been
carried out within the tenement area
by PNC Exploration during the
1980’s.
Calcrete sampling was completed by
Helix Resources over the southern
portion of the tenement area in the
early 2000’s and several anomalous
calcrete values were obtained which
attracted Tasman to the area.
In 2005 Tasman discovered
outcropping epithermal veining
within the Corunna Conglomerate.
Subsequent drilling intersected
epithermal Au-Ag-Pb-Zn
mineralisation associated with the
veining at Tasman’s Parkinson Dam
prospect. Low level epithermal
mineralisation was also discovered
at the Corrie Dam prospect in 2015.
Geology. Deposit type, geological setting and style
of mineralisation.
The geology comprises
Mesoproterozoic Corunna
Conglomerate which forms a north
plunging syncline overlying
Paleoproterozoic metasediments
and is in faulted contact with the
Gawler Range Volcanics to the
north. Tasman is exploring the area
for epithermal Au-Ag-base metal
mineralisation associated with the
margin of the Gawler Range
Volcanics.
