March 2021 Quarterly Activities Report

Trek gears up for maiden drill program at the Pilbara Gold Project after defining several large-scale, highly prospective targets in the March quarter

HIGHLIGHTS

Pilbara Gold Project, WA

  • Soil sampling at the Pincunah Valley of Gossans (VOG) Prospect highlighted a large arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), selenium (Se) and silver (Ag) anomaly with associated bismuth (Bi), copper (Cu) and molybdenum (Mo).

  • The anomalous corridor is over 2km long and is open to the north-east and south-east.

  • Based on these encouraging initial results, Trek completed an additional program totalling 1,100 samples to the west of VOG and to the north covering the Carlindi prospects. A further program of 60 in-fill soil samples at 100m by 50m spacing is planned over the western extension of VOG.

  • Induced Polarisation (IP) survey at VOG and Carlindi (totalling four lines for 6.8km) identified several IP anomalies that are coincident with the elevated soil responses.

  • The western IP anomaly on the southern line at VOG is coincident with a reconnaissance rock sample that returned 0.8g/t gold, 2,231g/t silver, 14.7% copper, >10,000ppm arsenic and 109ppm bismuth .

  • All approvals secured for drilling at both the VOG and Carlindi prospects, with drilling expected to commence in the second quarter 2021.

  • Acquisition and option agreements executed over the large Tambourah Project, with encouraging results received from the initial program of reconnaissance rock chip sampling and field investigation covering six prospect areas within E45/5484.

Corporate

  • Trek raised $3.05 million during the quarter to underpin ongoing exploration programs, with Chairman Tony Leibowitz investing $350,000 following shareholder approval.

  • Trek continues to review other potential acquisitions and investments in the mineral resource sector.

  • Cash position at 31 March 2021 of US$3.59 million (A$4.70 million).

OVERVIEW

Trek Executive Director John Young said the Company had continued to lay the foundations for a substantial exploration push across its key Pilbara exploration projects in early 2021, with results received from recent fieldwork programs outlining a number of exciting drill targets.

“During the quarter, analysis of geochemical data (fine fraction soils) from reconnaissance exploration at our flagship Pincunah Project demonstrated strong prospectivity for gold and VMS (Cu-Ag-Zn) deposits of scale,” he said.

“Geophysical anomalies generated from the recently acquired IP (Induced Polarisation) data has reinforced our belief that systematic, effective exploration will deliver results in this area.

“With all required approvals now in place, Trek is looking forward to our maiden drilling program which is expected to commence in the second quarter.”

Pilbara Gold Project

During the previous Quarter, Trek completed a major program of soil and rock chip sampling at its 100%-owned Pincunah Gold and Copper Project (E45/4909), located 100km south of Port Hedland and just 5km south of Kairos Minerals’ (ASX: KAI) 873,500oz Mt York Gold Project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.

Pincunah Project Geochemistry Programs

Results from the 923 soil sample program were received during the quarter. The sampling covered the “Valley of Gossans” ("VOG”) Prospect area, where extensive evidence of hydrothermal alteration has been observed over an area of 2.2km by 0.9km.

The results of this work are considered to be highly significant with implications for ongoing exploration across the Pincunah Licence E45/4909 (see TKM ASX announcement dated 16[th] February 2021).

Soil sampling has identified a regionally extensive coincident As-Sb-Ag-Se anomaly that is variably coincident with Au-Co-Mo and Bi that extends for 2.1km and up to 500m width. The anomaly trends north-west and remains open to the south-east and north-west (Figure 1).

This association generally represents a suite of “granitic-felsic” elements commonly associated with porphyry-style emplacement. Importantly, this anomaly is associated with the regional topographic highs related to the mapped ‘chert’ across the project area.

During the recent field trip, outcrops of this ‘chert’ horizon were visually inspected and two samples were taken. Assays did not return elevated gold, however they returned highly anomalous arsenic up to 3,600ppm, silver up to 13ppm, copper up to 600ppm and bismuth up to 0.4ppm .

Field observations indicate that this horizon is a very large and regionally extensive zone of hydrothermal alteration which we now know is elevated with unusually high levels of classic pathfinder metals and gold.

The newly identified As-Sb-Ag-Se+/-Au anomaly appears to be associated with highly gossanous and silicified rocks located 200-300m west of the main area of gossans. These rocks were sampled by Trek in August 2020, returning assay results of up to 0.4g/t Au and 57g/t Ag (see TKM ASX announcement dated 30 September 2020).

This area represents a high-priority target that has never been drill tested. On review of the newly reprocessed geophysical images, the As-Sb-Ag-Se+/-Au anomaly is strongly coincident with regionally extensive potassium trends in the airborne radiometric data (Figure 2).

Due to the strength of the As-Sb-Ag-Se anomaly, and the fact that it remains open to the northwest, the soil program was extended to join with the historical Carlindi soils to the north (see Figure 2). Initial samples are being taken on a 200m by 100m pattern, with some in-fill planned on the western side of the VOG trend.

Carlindi Prospect

At the Carlindi prospect area, the historical soil data collected by Lynas in 1997 was reviewed. Two north-northeast trending gold-in-soil anomalies of >20ppb Au that extend for 1.5km and 500m respectively are both open and occur on the western edge of another regionally extensive potassium anomaly (Figure 2).

Field inspections across these areas indicate variably gold-bearing hydrothermal chert horizons and silicified conglomerate with quartz veins and gossan and high grades in places, including a recent quartz vein sample that retuned 9.7g/t Au up-dip, which backs up the significant high-grade drilling intersection of 10m at 5.9g/t Au (see announcement dated 5 August 2020).

In addition, previous rock samples by Trek to the south of the area drilled by Lynas returned assays of up to 1.8g/t Au that have not been followed up by drilling (see TKM ASX announcement dated 30 September 2020).

Figure 1: Arsenic anomaly on aerial photography showing the relationship to historical drilling and recent rock chip samples.

The north-northwest trending Gossan B outcrops occur on the edge of the geochemical anomaly and rock sampling in that area returned assays of up to 0.8 g/t gold, 2,231 g/t silver, 14.7% copper, >10,000ppm As and 109ppm bismuth (Figure 2).

On review of the re-processed geophysical images, the As-Sb-Ag-Se anomaly is strongly coincident with regionally extensive potassic trends in the airborne radiometric data (Figure 2).

The radiometric potassium trends extend for at least 2km and possibly up to 5km to the northwest up to the northern property boundary toward the Kairos Mt York resource (Figure 2). This trend indicates that the silicification is strongly associated with extensive potassic alteration and is regionally extensive on Trek Licence E45/4909.

At the Carlindi prospect area, the historic soil data collected by Lynas in 1997 was reviewed. Two north-northeast trending gold-in-soil anomalies that extend for 1.5km and 500m respectively are both open and occur on the western edge of another regionally extensive potassium anomaly (Figure 2).

Field inspections across these areas indicate variably gold-bearing hydrothermal chert horizons and silicified conglomerate with quartz veins and gossan in places with rock chips of up to 1.8 g/t Au that have not been followed up by drilling (see TKM ASX announcement dated 30 September 2020).

Significantly, this chert horizon and coincident potassium trend extends for 6km to the north-west and is also coincident with the Mt York deposit owned by Kairos (Figure 2).

Pincunah IP Survey

In March 2021, Zonge Pty Ltd completed four dipole-dipole traverses of 1.7km each over the main target areas at Valley of the Gossans (VOG) and Carlindi within the Pincunah Project E45/4909 (see Figure 2).

All four section lines have a significant chargeability results from the ‘inversion’ data (‘inversion’ meaning what the sub-surface conductivity would most likely look like from computer modelling of the electrical measurements received on the ground).

In all cases there appears to be a chargeable IP anomaly either underlying or directly adjacent the chert marker ridge, each of which represent a drill target in themselves.

Figure 3: Chargeability (mV/V) Inversion results from Valley of the Gossans IP line 7656500mN. Chargeable bodies are shown in hot colors (red) and the detailed As and Ag soils and rock chip locations are both positive vectors in mineral exploration.

Figure 4: Chargeability (mV/V) Inversion results of Valley of the Gossans IP line 7656500mN and 7656800 draped over topographic surface.

The eastern anomaly of the southern IP section 7656500mN at Valley of the Gossans (Figures 3 and 4) is coincident with the historical drilling (see TKM ASX announcement dated 6[th] November 2020) and a rock sample of up to 0.8g/t gold and 2,231g/t silver. The western anomaly is coincident with a conformable gossan outcrop (see rock chip results of 0.40g/t Au and 56g/t Ag) and is located just 50m south-east of a silica-chert ridge that extends for several hundred metres.

The IP line 7656800mN, located 300m north of valley of the Gossans, has also defined a chargeable/conductive response similar to that of the VOG mineralisation, and in the same structural orientation. The IP target is located below the silica (chert) ridge alteration system, with strong bismuth and antimony soil sampling results surrounding this altered zone.

At the Carlindi Prospect, IP anomalies (Figure 5 and 6) are compared with the historical drilling located on 7658700mN between two chargeable anomalies – again, one directly below the silica – chert horizon (low magnetic zone) and a western anomaly in line with historical Carlindi soils. Both anomalies are undrilled and appear again 700m north on 7659400mN.

Figure 5: Chargeability (mV/V) Inversion results of Carlindi IP line 765,8700mN. Chargeable bodies are shown in hot colors (red) with reference to the historical drilling CLRC67 and CLRC44 are both positive vectors in mineral exploration.

Next Steps on the Pincunah Project

Assay results for the most recent soil (1,100) and rock sampling (20) program are due in May. Results from the soil sampling will provide a more comprehensive geochemical picture across extensions of the anomalies, as demonstrated in Figure 1 for example.

A drilling program is planned to commence during the second quarter 2021 once the current and proposed programs have been completed and interpretation finalised.

Pincunah Project Native Title

Trek Metals has signed a Native Title Agreement over EL45/4917 which also includes E45/4909 to the west. A Heritage survey was completed on the 7[th] and 8[th] of April allowing access and clearing in the proposed drilling areas.

A Program of Work (POW) was submitted and approved in late 2020 to secure approvals for drilling on E45/4909.

Tambourah Project

The Tambourah Project is considered highly prospective for gold deposits with at least 13 known gold occurrences and old mining workings located on the project. The Project encompasses the central portion of the 15km long Western Shaw Greenstone Belt, which occurs on the eastern limb of an anticline folded around the Tambourah Dome. The greenstone rocks comprise Archeanaged metavolcanic, metasedimentary and various granitoids that occur as large plutons and smaller intrusives.

During the December Quarter, field reconnaissance work was completed on E45/5484 as part of the due diligence process for the Tambourah Project acquisition with the collection of 41 rock samples and a number of outcropping highly gossanous quartz veins identified together with highly gossanous and often pyrite-bearing mafic and chert host rocks (see ASX Release 21[st] February 2021).

The results received are encouraging and significant results are listed below (see Figures 7 and 8):

  • WS2 Prospect rock sample RT015 assayed 3.0 g/t Au;

  • WS3 Prospect rock samples RT003 assayed 3.6 g/t Au and RT005 assayed 2.5 g/t Au;

  • Elevator Prospect rock sample RT026 returned 1.5 g/t Au.

CORPORATE

Capital Raising

During the quarter, the company completed a strongly supported capital raising of A$3.05 million to accelerate exploration across its key Pilbara gold and base metal projects in Western Australia.

The Company issued 50,833,333 shares at an issue price of $0.06 per share to sophisticated and professional investors to raise a total of A$3.05 million. Included in the placement was an application for $350,000 by Chairman Tony Leibowitz that was subsequently approved by shareholders at a general meeting held on 4th March 2021.

Funds raised will be used to ramp-up exploration activity at the Pincunah Project and the recently acquired Tambourah Project and for general working capital.

Cash Position/Expenditure

The Company held cash reserves of approximately US$3.6 million / (A$4.7million) at the end of the quarter (Refer Appendix 5B). During the quarter key expenditure items included:

  • Exploration and Evaluation – US$134k / (A$169k)

  • Staffing Costs – US$59k / A$77k

During the quarter, the company made payments of: -

  • Normal executive directors consulting fees of US$35k / A$45k to Mr John Young; and

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 (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling
