ASX Announcement 3 August 2011

First Assay Results from the Current Kangaluwi Copper Project Diamond Drilling Program

  • Phase 1 drilling program remains on track with 63 Diamond Drill (DD) holes for 11,703 m drilled to-date.

  • Phase 2 deep DD drilling for 10,000 m has commenced to test down-dip mineralisation extents.

  • Assay results to date confirm extensive copper mineralisation in the Kalulu Prospect with wider copper mineralisation intersected up to 10 m at 1.13% Cu, 14 m at 0.99% Cu and 21 m at 0.79% Cu.

  • All 6 holes at Kalulu intercepted mineralisation at multiple depths suggesting several more ore chutes than previously interpreted.

Zambezi Resources Limited (the Company) has received initial assay results from its Kalulu and Chisawa Prospects, part of the 100% owned Kangaluwi Copper Project (the Project) in Zambia.

In April this year the Company commenced its A$3.5 million 13,000 m diamond drilling campaign at the Project.

1.0 Kalulu Prospect

All budgeted 38 DD holes for 6,640 m were drilled at Kalulu. Kalulu is interpreted to lie at the nose of the east-plunging fold. Sulphide mineralisation is structurally controlled in a sheared, regional east-plunging syncline. Kalulu’s strike length of 1.2 km was drilled at 100 m intervals, both between and along RC drill sections. This will result in a 50 m x 50 m grid drill coverage and should advance the Kalulu resource to Indicated Mineral Resource category (see Figure 3).

Hole KLUDD005 drilled on section 10100E displayed both chalcopyrite and bornite sulphide mineralisation. KLUD009 was drilled through biotite-muscovite-quartz schist and with malachite mineralisation intersected in KLURL0017 (Figure 4).

Holes KLUDD003, KLUDD004 and KLUDD007 were drilled on section 10200E (Figure 6). Mineralisation in KLUDD003 & KLUDD004 holes was predominantly chalcopyrite, while KLUD007 exhibited a 20 m thick mineralised zone of azurite and malachite.

Assay results at Kalulu so far confirm the wider intersections normally associated with the hinge zone of folds, where low pressure zones are conductive to metal deposition. It is comforting to note that all 6 holes intercepted mineralisation at multiple depths suggesting several more ore chutes than previously interpreted.

2.0 Chisawa Prospect

A total of 5,063 m have been drilled at Chisawa or 25 DD holes from a total of 32 DD holes budgeted for a Phase I drilling program, across a 3 km mineralised zone. With collars designed at 200 m intervals, a 100 m x 100 m grid drill coverage will be realised when combined with existing RC drilling. The principal aim of this infill program is to increase mineral resource confidence and advance the resource classification, ideally to an Indicated category.

Collectively, these assay results for Chisawa and Kalulu Prospects confirm the strike and down-dip extension of mineralisation as identified in previous assays of drilling samples.

3.0 Deep Hole DD Drilling

With Phase I of DD drilling at Kalulu executed, the 2 diamond rigs have started to drill 4 planned deep holes, totalling 2,000 m.

Some 7 holes remain to be drilled at Chisawa by one drill rig, while the second drill rig continues the 8 planned deep holes for 4,000 m at Kangaluwi. A further 8 deep holes for 4,000 m are planned for Chisawa.
