In May 2013, the Company announced a Maiden Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource at Zone 8 and Zone 11 of the Kilba project (ASX announcement; 31 May 2013). In August 2014, the Company commenced a phased drilling program with the objective of increasing the confidence level of the Kilba Mineral Resource at Zones 8 and 11 to an Indicated status in support of future detailed feasibility studies. Phase 1 drilling confirmed continuity of high-grade zones at Zone 8 and Zone 11 and Phase 2 drilling completed during the quarter infilled sections to a 40 metre spacing over the May 2013 Mineral Resource.

Results from all drilling have been received and are discussed in sections below for individual prospects (refer to ASX announcement; 19 December 2014).

Zone 11

During the quarter, 46 RC holes for 4,375 metres were completed at Zone 11 with the deposit now drilled out on a 40 metre line spacing over the entire length of the deposit (Figure 2). Diamond drilling was also undertaken with 5 HQ holes for 225 metres completed to twin RC drilling and 5 PQ holes for 285 metres drilled to collect metallurgical samples. Tungsten mineralisation at Zone 11 has been delineated over 1200 metres of strike and is associated with skarns and calc-silicate units that wrap around the Kilba granite and dip towards the south to southwest.

Skarns and calc-silicate units are within a 40 to 100 metre wide carbonate-rich unit of the Morrissey Metamorphic suite consisting of pelitic and psammitic schists, marble, calc-silicates and skarns. Typically high-grade mineralisation is associated with retrograde skarn units which are often surrounded by low to medium grade disseminated scheelite mineralisation in calc-silicate and sedimentary units.

In the central and western domains mineralisation is associated with multiple low to medium-grade units, as shown by Figure 3. These units dip shallowly (25° – 50°) towards the southwest to west as they fold around the Kilba granite. Toward the east of the prospect tungsten mineralisation merges into a single high-grade zone that dips steeply (55° – 70°) towards the south, as shown in Figure 4.

Better drill intersections are presented in Table 2 for RC drilling and Table 3 for HQ diamond drilling. Metallurgical holes will be assayed upon commencement of the planned metallurgical test work program for the feasibility study. A complete list of intersections greater than 2 metres at 0.10% WO3 are presented in Appendix 1.

Infill drilling at Zone 11 has confirmed continuity of mineralised envelops over 1.2 kilometres of strike. The grade within these zones can be variable; however westerly plunging high-grade shoots within these envelops can be traced over numerous drill holes and drill sections resulting in 90% of the Zone 11 Mineral Resource being classified as Indicated.

Zone 8

During the quarter 16 RC holes and 3 diamond holes for 1397 metres were drilled at Zone 8 to complete 40 metre spaced sections over 360 metres of strike (Figure 5). Drilling targeted the historical Zone 8b where Union Carbide drilling intersected high-grade scheelite. Results from recent drilling were extremely encouraging intersecting substantial thicknesses of moderate to strong tungsten mineralisation (Figure 6). Mineralisation is associated with a similar carbonate pack to that at Zone 11, but is truncated by granites at 60 to 80 metres vertical depth.

Results received in the December quarter have increased contained metal in the updated Mineral Resource at Zone 8 by 50%. Geological mapping and UV lamping has identified strike extensions to Zone 8b and indicates excellent potential for further increases. Mineralisation is open to the west and future drilling will focus on joining Zone 8a to Zone 8b.

Two PQ diamond holes were drilled to collect metallurgical samples and one HQ diamond hole twinned an RC hole. Better drill intersections are presented in Table 4 and a complete list of intersections greater than 2 metres at 0.10% WO3 are presented in Appendix 1. As noted earlier, metallurgical holes will be assayed at a later date.

Zone 12

Drilling in September 2014 intersected multiple zones of weak to moderate scheelite mineralisation. In January the Company reported an Inferred Mineral Resource of 230,000 tonnes at 0.15% WO3 at a 0.10% WO3 cut-off at Zone 12.

Geological mapping and UV lamping has identified extensions to Zone 12 and it is considered encouraging that drilling intersected multiple zones of tungsten mineralisation. The strongest mineralisation was intersected in the western-most sections and mineralisation is open to the west (Figure 7).

Mineral Resource Update

During January 2015, the Company announced an updated JORC 2012 Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 5.0 million tonnes at 0.24% WO3 at Zones 8, 11 and 12 of the Kilba Project (Refer to Table 1). The Mineral Resource estimate has been completed by CSA Global Pty Ltd in accordance with the guidelines of the Joint Ore Reserve Committee (JORC) Code – 2012 Edition (refer to ASX announcement; 30 January 2015).

Mineralisation was interpreted in 3D and 0.025% WO3 grade envelopes defined. Hard boundaries between the grade envelopes were used to select sample populations for grade estimation by Multiple Indicator Kriging (MIK). The block model was constructed using a 20mE x 10mN x 10mRL parent block size, with subcelling to 2mE x 1mN x 1mRL for domain volume resolution. The search radii were determined by means of the evaluation of the semivariogram parameters, which determined the kriging weights to be applied to samples at specified distances.

No grade cutting was applied as MIK was used for the grade interpolation. The median grade was used for the last bin defined for MIK, as this bin is likely to contain occasional very high values giving a more conservative value for positively skewed data than the mean.

A range of lower cut-offs have been used to report grades and tonnages, as shown in Table 5 and Figure 8. This demonstrates that within the overall resource there are significant high-grade zones of tungsten mineralisation.

Metallurgical Testwork

A program of “sighter” metallurgical test work has been commissioned with Nagrom metallurgical laboratories in Kelmscott WA. The test work objectives are as follows:

  • Obtain a better understanding of the behaviour of Kilba ore through a preliminary flow sheet;

  • Evaluate the limitations and build on the knowledge gained from the previous bench scale testing; and

  • Investigate the potential to stream-line future metallurgical test work including pilot testing.

The program commenced in late November using the reserve sample from earlier test work and diamond core sample retained from previous drilling. The composite was prepared to be representative of the ore body average for the Kilba resource, both in terms of the style of mineralisation and chemistry. The Nagrom test work, which is still in progress, is testing the Kilba ore for amenability to a range of mineral processes including gravity separation (dense media, jigging, wet tabling, reflux classification) hydrocycloning, magnetic separation, grinding and flotation. This work will substantially assist in defining the scope of any future feasibility study metallurgical test work and process design elements.

Work was advanced during the quarter on obtaining third party estimates of the cost to deliver a traditional “prefeasibility” study (PFS). This was done via a request for proposal (RFP) process on the major elements of the proposed study. Whilst the emphasis of such work is likely to be focused on the metallurgical test work and process design, there will also be a requirement to complete work across the major disciplines of mining, geotechnical, site infrastructure, hydrogeology, environmental and marketing.

Koolyanobbing Project – Seabrook Rare Metals Venture

In November Tungsten Mining announced that it had entered into a binding agreement with Cobre Montana NL (ASX:CXB) that provides for CXB to explore for lithium and other metals, on the shores of Lake Seabrook, approximately 60km north-east of Southern Cross, Western Australia. The agreement concerns tenements comprising Tungsten Mining’s Koolyanobbing Project, notably E77/1853, E77/1854, E77/1855, E77/2021, E77/2022 and E77/2035 and extends to an area of influence of 20km outside of the Tungsten Mining Tenements.

On 20 October 2014, CXB announced lodging an exploration licence application for prospective ground at Lake Seabrook, covering pegmatites which contain lithium mica, beryl and tourmaline. The initial target area was about 5km long and 2km wide. The mineralized zone trends north westerly from the CXB application area, beneath the lake bed and into ground held by Tungsten Mining with surface expression over a further 7km.

The Seabrook Rare Metals Venture provides CXB with a right to earn an 80% interest to all metals other than tungsten, the right of which remain or are vested in Tungsten Mining. The fundamental terms of the agreement are:

  • CXB to manage the joint land package and be responsible for maintaining the tenements in good standing.

  • An area of influence around the Tungsten Mining Tenements of 20km.

  • CXB to sole fund to the commencement of definitive feasibility study.

  • On committing to a definitive feasibility study conversion to an 80/20 (CXB/Tungsten Mining) contributing JV for development of non-tungsten minerals.

  • Tungsten Mining retains 100% interest in tungsten and retains right to continue operations for the discovery and development of Tungsten within the area of interest.

  • CXB to provide all exploration data to Tungsten Mining.

Corporate

Mr Paul Berndt resigned as a non-executive director on 21 November 2014. Further changes to the board composition were announced in early January 2015 with the retirement of founding director and non-executive chairman, Mr Patrick McManus – existing board member, Mr Gary Lyons was elected Chairman in place of Mr McManus. There is no intention to appoint additional directors to the board at this time.

In December 2014, the Company announced the appointment of Mr Mark Pitts as company secretary in place of Ms Elizabeth Hunt.

As at 31 December 2014 the Company’s cash balance was $1.19 million.
