Quarterly Report – September 2016
Highlights
- RC and Diamond drilling confirms shallow potential – During the quarter, the Company drilled 35 RC drillholes for 1,483m and a further 6 diamond drillholes for 234m, targeting shallow mineralisation at Mt Mulgine. Better results included 17 metres at 0.46% WO3 and 0.02% Mo from 2 metres at Mulgine Hill and 72 metres at 0.16% WO3 and 0.02% Mo from surface at Trench.
Samples were collected from this program for mineralogical and metallurgical studies, aimed at determining the optimal processing route.
- Core sampling program delivers encouraging results - Encouraging results achieved from the initial phase of a historical core sampling program at the Mulgine Hill deposit at the Mt Mulgine Project. The reported results, including 8.6m at 0.24% WO3 and 4.9m at 0.18% WO3, highlight the potential to add to existing intersections plus to identify new zones of mineralisation from the historical Minefields and ANZECO drilling.
The results of the core sampling program and Q3 drilling program described above will be utilised in development planning and a further update of the geological model and Mineral Resource estimate for Mulgine Hill.
-
Historical diamond hole highlights Trench potential – A review of the Black Dog gold prospect within the Trench deposit has identified significant downhole and strike potential. BDD006 intersected 248m at 0.08% WO3, approximately 100-150m down-dip of the Bobby McGee pit.
-
Mt Mulgine Strategic Development Plan - Tungsten Mining has developed a Strategic Development Plan for the Mt Mulgine Project directed towards the production of tungsten concentrate within 2 years. A staged development approach will be adopted, with the initial focus on the Mulgine Hill deposit while concurrently progressing metallurgical testwork and development activities on the significantly larger Mulgine Trench deposit. This strategy aims to produce early cash flow and ensure tungsten production is sustainable long term.
Significant progress was made against the project plan during the quarter.
-
China market development – Since the end of the September quarter, Tungsten Mining has released an updated presentation specifically targeted to the Chinese tungsten market with both English and Mandarin versions available via a relaunched website. The website contains information on the Company and its projects in both English and Mandarin to support an increasing engagement with the tungsten industry in the People’s Republic of China.
-
Cash position - The Company’s cash position as at 30 September 2016 was $0.92m.
Tungsten Mining NL Quarterly Activities Report September 2016
Tungsten Mining
Tungsten Mining NL (“the Company”) is focussed on the discovery and development of tungsten deposits in Australia. The Company’s key projects are Mt Mulgine, Big Hill and Kilba Projects, all in Western Australia.
Through exploration and acquisition, the Company has established a portfolio of advanced tungsten projects with Mineral Resources at a 0.10% WO3 cut-off comprising Indicated Resources of 15.4Mt at 0.20% WO3 and 26ppm Mo and Inferred Resources of 73.2Mt at 0.17% WO3 and 220ppm Mo, totalling 88.6Mt at 0.18% WO3 and 186ppm Mo (refer Appendix 2). This represents more than 15.5 million MTU (metric tonne units) of WO3 and 16,480 tonnes of contained Molybdenum, providing the platform for the Company to become a globally significant player within the primary tungsten market through the development of low cost tungsten concentrate production.

Mt Mulgine Project, Murchison WA
The Mt Mulgine Project is located within the Murchison Region of Western Australia, approximately 350km north northeast of Perth. The Company has 100% of the tungsten and molybdenum rights on a contiguous group of tenements that have been the subject of significant previous exploration for tungsten and molybdenum.
Two near surface Mineral Resources have been delineated at the Mulgine Trench and Mulgine Hill deposits. Currently, there is a combined Mineral Resource estimate of 72.2Mt at 0.18% WO3 and 230ppm Mo (0.10% WO3 cut-off) (refer Appendix 2).
Historical metallurgical testwork conducted in the 1970s/1980s indicates tungsten is present as coarsegrained scheelite that will respond well to conventional gravity separation and is capable of producing commercial grade concentrate.

Mulgine Hill
Reverse Circulation Drilling
At Mulgine Hill, mineralisation is associated with the sub-horizontal upper contact of a mafic schist unit and overlying quartz-muscovite greisen. Tungsten occurs as scheelite in coarse disseminations within the greisen or within numerous quartz and greisen veins in both the mafic schists and the quartz-muscovite greisen.
Minefields Exploration NL (Minefields) and Australian and New Zealand Exploration Company (ANZECO) drilled 213 diamond drillholes at the Mulgine Hill prospect over several campaigns from 1970 to 1980.
In June 2016, Tungsten Mining updated the Mulgine Hill Mineral Resource in accordance with the guidelines provided by the 2012 JORC Code. Interpretation of data during the resource modelling process identified a number of shallow targets with open extensions.
During August 2016, a total of 26 reverse circulation (RC) holes for 1,007 metres and five large diameter (PQ) diamond holes for 202.4 metres were completed at Mulgine Hill to test shallow tungsten mineralisation.
The current drilling program tested four of these targets where historic drilling defined thick zones of tungsten mineralisation close to surface (Figure 4). Mineralisation at all four targets have shallow dips and the objective of drilling was to confirm continuity of mineralisation and targeted strike extensions within 40 metres of the surface.
Results from this drilling were encouraging, intersecting thick zones of tungsten mineralisation at all target areas. Drilling at Target 1 has confirmed continuity within the existing Mineral Resource plus defined extensions in both fresh and weathered material along strike and down dip as shown in Figure 5.
Drilling at Target 2 and 4 confirmed historic drilling, intersecting similar grades and widths at target depths, however holes testing strike extensions intersected only patchy mineralisation (best 6m at 0.17% WO3 from 9m in MMC007). Three PQ diamond holes were drilled at these targets to collect metallurgical samples.

Figure 5 – Cross section showing August 2016 drilling (MMC prefix) and interpretation with 2016 block model.
Four RC and one diamond hole were drilled at Target 3 to test shallow tungsten mineralisation. One RC hole (MMC025) twinned a historic diamond hole and a PQ diamond hole was drilled to collect samples for metallurgical testwork. Both holes intersected similar grade material to Minefield holes at target depths.
Three of the RC holes were drilled to test the strike extension, and MMC023 intersected a broad zone of low - medium grade tungsten mineralisation (34m at 0.09 WO3 and 0.03% Mo from surface in MMC023) that is open to the northwest.
Better drill intersections from Mulgine Hill RC drilling for weathered and fresh material are presented in Table 1. A complete list of intersections greater than 2 metres at 0.10% WO3 are presented in Appendix 1.

Diamond Drilling
Five PQ diamond holes were also drilled to provide representative material for metallurgical test work from the mafic schist unit and overlying greisen. Work has commenced on this material, with the major objective to confirm previous metallurgical studies that indicated conventional treatment produces a saleable WO3 concentrate at Mulgine Hill.
Twenty three samples from this core were sent for mineralogical examination to investigate the metallurgy of fresh scheelite mineralisation present at Mulgine Hill. The results of this work are described elsewhere in this report under the heading “ Mineralogical Studies ”.

Historic Core Sampling
Minefields and ANZECO drilled 213 diamond drillholes at the Mulgine Hill prospect over several campaigns from 1970 to 1980. Diamond holes were logged and UV lamped to determine mineralised material and only these mineralised intervals were assayed. Inspection of core under UV light indicated Minefields/ANZECO selective sampling potentially missed significant tungsten mineralisation.
In April 2016, the Company sampled 249.75 metres of BQ and NQ core and submitted them for tungsten analysis. Results from this sampling is considered highly encouraging to add to existing intersections plus identify new zones of mineralisation.
In August 2016, Tungsten Mining sampled a further 862.1 metres of Minefields/ANZECO core and submitted 862 samples (half core) to Nagrom Laboratories for tungsten analysis by x-ray fluorescence (XRF).
Results from the April and August 2016 sampling programs returned 143 samples greater than 0.05% WO3 that were either adjacent to existing intersection or in a new intersection of 2 metres at 0.05% WO3 or better. These 143 samples averaged 0.11% WO3. Results included 10.9m at 0.14% WO3, 10.7m at 0.11% WO3 and 8.6m at 0.24% WO3. Further historic core has been identified as containing unsampled scheelite mineralisation will be sampled when completing field work in the future.
Better intersections from the April and August 2016 sampling are shown below in Table 2. A complete list of intersections greater than 2 metres at 0.05% WO3 are presented in Appendix 1.

Mulgine Trench
Tungsten mineralisation at Mulgine Trench is hosted by quartz-scheelite veins in mafic and ultramafic volcanics in a 100 to 250 metre thick zone that extends over 1.5 kilometres of strike. Mineralisation is open along strike and down dip and is associated with foliation parallel quartz veins generally less than 10cm in width. Mineralisation is strongest where quartz veining averages 15 – 20% of the total rock volume.
Tungsten Mining’s strategy at Mulgine Trench is to target potentially low strip ratio fresh tungsten mineralisation beneath and adjacent to the Bobby McGee pit and gain a greater understanding of the Mulgine Trench oxide layer.
Reverse Circulation Drilling
During August 2016, 9 RC holes for 476 metres were drilled at Mulgine Trench to test tungsten mineralisation adjacent to and beneath the Bobby McGee pit (Figure 7).
Results from this drilling have been extremely encouraging, intersecting substantial thicknesses of low to medium grade tungsten mineralisation including 72 metres at 0.16% WO3 and 0.02% Mo from surface in MMC030 (Figure 8). Significant molybdenum is also present with RC hole MMC031, intersecting 40 metres at 0.08% WO3 and 0.12% Mo in preliminary five metre composite samples.
Historic Drilling Data Review
A review of historical drilling that targeted gold mineralisation at Black Dog was completed during the reporting period and highlighted the scale of the mineralised system at Mulgine Trench. A number of the RC holes and one deep diamond hole were assayed for tungsten by mixed acid digest/ICP-AES analysis.
Diamond hole BDD006 at Black Dog intersected multiple zones of tungsten mineralisation that form an intersection of 248 metres at 0.08% WO3 (Figure 8). This newly identified intersection shows the potential to increase the Mineral Resource at Mulgine Trench with mineralisation open down dip over the 1.5 kilometres of strike as well as along strike.

Tungsten Mining NL Quarterly Activities Report September 2016
Diamond Drilling
A single large diameter (PQ) diamond hole MMD006 was drilled to 31.6 metres to provide material for metallurgical studies of the oxide layer at Mulgine Trench. This hole twinned MMC030 that assayed 32 metres at 0.13% WO3 over the corresponding interval.
Four samples from MMD006 containing tungsten mineralisation were examined to determine the mineralogy and distribution of tungsten in the Mulgine Trench oxide layer, the details of which are described further below.
Mineralogical Studies
Samples recovered from recent drilling at Mulgine Hill and Trench at the Mt Mulgine Project were prepared and submitted for mineralogical investigation to:
-
Identify the type of tungsten mineralisation and determine the particles sizes, abundance and other minerals present in the fresh samples from Mulgine Hill, with the aim of streamlining the metallurgical test work program;
-
Identify the tungsten mineral(s) present in the non-fluorescing samples assaying for tungsten in the oxide/weathered zone from Trench, with the aim of determining a metallurgical extraction route.
Mulgine Hill Samples
A total of 19 samples from the Mulgine Hill deposit were carefully chosen based on the presence of visible scheelite under UV light, different host rock and scheelite particle size. Polished thin sections were then prepared and examined using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
In summary, the dominant lithologies were greisen (muscovite quartz feldspar), mafic schist and quartz veins. All contained pyrite and traces of a range of sulphides of copper, lead, zinc, molybdenum and bismuth. Eighteen of the nineteen drill cores contained detectable tungsten mineralisation. This was predominantly scheelite, but traces of wolframite and the lead tungstate, stolzite were also detected.
The scheelite was present in a wide range of angular grainsizes but with a significant proportion (in number) less than 100 μm (micron), however reaching as high as 13mm in one sample.
The number of scheelite grains per size range were counted and presented as a histogram for each sample. The samples were then categorised as either a greison or schist lithology and then the respective samples combined to give an overall number of scheelite particles per size fraction. A mass of scheelite per size fraction was then estimated using a specific gravity (SG) of 6 and a volumetric calculation that assumed a cubic scheelite particle shape. Figure 9 below shows the relationship between the number of particles versus estimated mass of scheelite per size fraction.

Figure 9 – number of scheelite particles versus mass per size fraction.
Commentary
As Figure 9 shows, the vast majority of scheelite particles are less than 300um. However, in terms of mass, greater than 90% of the scheelite mass exists in the >1mm size fraction.
In terms of metallurgical extraction, gravity concentration of scheelite appears very feasible with a distinct mass of scheelite line at ~1mm for both the schist and greison material and the main gangue minerals are low SG silicates. Pyrite is the main higher SG mineral likely to be present in the initial concentrates.
Trench Samples
The Bobby McGee Pit is located in the northern end of the Trench deposit and has provided the ability to access both fresh and weathered material in an area of closed spaced drilling.
Four drill cores, with a grade ranging between 0.20% and 0.39% WO3, were submitted for examination, representing the oxide/weathered portion from drill hole MMD006 at the Bobby McGee Pit.
A representative portion of the samples were initially pulped and analysed semi quantitatively by XRD. Polished thin sections were also made of the drill cores, followed by an SEM examination with regard to the nature of the tungsten mineralogy.
The presence of elevated tungsten, and association with titanium and iron oxides suggested concentration was possible by heavy liquids and in view of the similarity between the four samples, a composite was prepared. The composite was screened at 63 μm and the -63 μm fraction separated in heavy liquid (SG 2.95).
The heavy liquid sink fraction was analysed by XRD. A small separate portion was mounted in a polished section and was examined by SEM using X-RAY maps.
The tungsten in these altered four drill core samples appears to be predominantly a rare tungsten oxide, hydrokenoelsmoreite (WO3.0.5H2O). It is invariably associated with titanium, mainly anatase and altered ilmenite. It appears that the tungsten has been mobilized and precipitated onto the relic iron titanium oxides during weathering. Scheelite is normally resistant to weathering but in the presence of significant pyrite,
13
Tungsten Mining NL Quarterly Activities Report September 2016
sulphuric acid is formed in the oxidised environment that attacks the calcium tungstate, precipitating tungsten oxides.
Hydrokenoelsmoreite has been identified at other mines, with both the Clara Mine in Germany and the Hemerdon Mine in the UK both recording it as a tungsten mineral.
The X-RAY maps, taken as part of the mineralogical investigation, show that the grainsizes of the tungsten mineral are very fine, commonly less than 5 μm.
Additional samples from the oxide/weathered zone of the Mulgine Hill deposit have been prepared and the test work repeated to determine if the mineral hydrokenoelsmoreite exists across the Mt Mulgine Project or in fact other tungsten minerals are present. This will assist in designing a metallurgical test program to determine an extraction route for hydrokenoelsmoreite or any other tungsten minerals identified.
As previously reported, Tungsten Mining have engaged Australia’s pre-eminent minerals research facility at CSIRO to support components of this activity and an initial review of past work was completed in August 2016 and a forward work plan presented.
The completion and outcome of the mineralogical studies will provide an opportunity to further refine the proposed forward work plan and focus efforts relative to this increasing body of knowledge.

Big Hill Project, Eastern Pilbara, WA
The Big Hill Project area is located approximately 30 km northeast of the Nullagine township in the Eastern Pilbara of Western Australia. The project contains the Big Hill deposit where 22,871 metres of diamond and RC drilling have defined a JORC-2012 Mineral Resource estimate totalling 11.5Mt at 0.15% WO3 (0.10% WO3 cut-off) (refer Appendix 2).
Metallurgical testwork conducted on samples from Big Hill at bench and pilot scale have produced high quality tungsten concentrates at acceptable scheelite recoveries. This work has identified a simple and potentially low cost processing route.

Figure 10 –Big Hill project geology
A site inspection was undertaken by Company personnel and six members of the Njamal Claimant Group, representatives of the traditional custodians for the land on which the Big Hill Project is located. The site visit followed an earlier meeting in Port Hedland in May 2016 and presented an opportunity for Tungsten Mining, as new owners of the Big Hill Project, to meet with the Njamal and discuss the Company’s plans including a proposed Retention License application. A Retention License application (being a conversion of part of E46/521-I) was submitted on 8 September 2016. There are no planned activities for the Big Hill Project and no work was undertaken during the September quarter.

Kilba Project, Ashburton Region, WA
The Kilba Project is located within the Ashburton Region of Western Australia, 250km southwest of Karratha. To date, Tungsten Mining have focused on the historic Zones 8, 11 and 12 that Union Carbide discovered in the 1970s. Drilling has targeted high-grade tungsten mineralisation associated with skarns and calc-silicate units situated close to the Kilba granite.
This work has defined a JORC-2012 compliant Mineral Resource totalling 5.0Mt at 0.24% WO3 (0.10% WO3 cut-off) (refer Appendix2).
Metallurgical testwork shows that the tungsten is present as coarse-grained scheelite that will respond well to conventional gravity separation. Testwork completed in 2015 has demonstrated the ability to produce an extremely high grade tungsten concentrate.

Other Projects
Tungsten Mining have a portfolio of other projects in Western Australia prospective for tungsten. These include Loves Find in the Ashburton region (which also hosts the Kilba Project), the Koolyanobbing Project and Callie Soak (tenement granted during the September quarter).
Work on these projects is in the initial stages of reconnaissance and target generation and it is hoped that these tenements will yield additional mineralisation of a similar nature to Kilba, which Tungsten Mining can exploit.
Ashburton Region
The Ashburton region includes the Loves Find project that is in close proximity to the Kilba Project.
At Loves Find, geological mapping, UV lamping and rockchip sampling has identified significant tungsten mineralisation associated with garnet-epidote-clinozoisite-diopsite skarns. Two selective rockchip samples from these skarns returned assays of 4.2% WO3 and 5.6 WO3.
Koolyanobbing Project – Seabrook Rare Metals Venture
Tungsten Mining entered into a binding agreement with Lithium Australia NL (ASX: LIT) that provides for LIT to explore for lithium and other metals, on the shores of Lake Seabrook, approximately 60km northeast 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’s Tenements.
The Seabrook Rare Metals Venture provides LIT 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.
Callie Soak Project, Murchison WA
The Callie Soak Project is located approximately 550km north northeast of Perth and 40km west of Cue within the Murchison Region of Western Australia. The Exploration Licence E20/854 was granted on the 9 September 2016 and covers five tungsten occurrences. The most significant is called Martins Lode where historic drilling intersected broad zones of tungsten mineralisation over 75m of strike. Tungsten is associated with wolframite and scheelite in structurally controlled veins hosted by greisen zones of a porphyritic monzogranite. Mineralisation is open at depth and along strike.
Corporate
Cash at bank and on deposit at the end of September 2016 was $0.92m.
A Company presentation titled “ Progressing Towards Production ” was released to ASX during the quarter with a further update released on 12 October with a Mandarin version made available via the Company’s website.
In support of the Company’s development plans for the Mt Mulgine Tungsten Project, a Mandarin version of key elements of the Company’s website has been launched. This can be accessed at www.tungstenmining.com/zh/home-2/ with the ability to switch between English and Mandarin content.
The People’s Republic of China is the largest producer of tungsten, accounting for approximately 80% of the world’s total output, and is also the world’s largest consumer of the metal. As Tungsten Mining advances its development activities at Mt Mulgine, the ability to communicate progress to the wider industry in China is becoming increasingly important.
Tungsten Mining’s senior management will be meeting with industry representatives in China in November to engage with specialist metallurgical laboratories/research facilities and potential off-take partners.
17
Tungsten Mining NL Quarterly Activities Report September 2016
December Quarter Activities
During the December quarter, the Company will continue to deliver on its strategic development plan to demonstrate a path to WO3 production and cash flow within 2 years by progressing the following activities:
-
Mineralogical studies on material from both Mulgine Hill and Trench;
-
Metallurgical test work on sample recovered during the August drilling campaign at Mulgine Hill to confirm the results of historical test work;
-
Spring season flora and fauna survey work at Mt Mulgine to advance the environmental permitting and approvals process;
-
Updating the Mulgine Hill Mineral Resource estimate following the recent drilling and core sampling programs; and
-
Continuing to gain a greater understanding of the metallurgy of the oxide layer of the Trench deposit.
The large diameter diamond drilling program completed in August recovered core from near surface tungsten mineralisation at the Mulgine Hill deposit – this material is being used in completing the mineralogical studies and metallurgical test work program designed to confirm previous metallurgical studies that indicated simple metallurgical treatment produces a saleable WO3 concentrate.
The Company will also progress discussions with equipment vendors and suppliers in relation to processing plant options that would suit the planned activities at Mt Mulgine and research facilities able to contribute to the development of the Mulgine Trench deposit.
As noted elsewhere, this will include planned meetings in China with industry specialists and potential offtake partners.

About Tungsten Mining
Emerging Australian tungsten developer, Tungsten Mining NL is an Australian based resources company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. The Company’s prime focus is the exploration and development of tungsten projects in Australia.
Tungsten (chemical symbol W), occurs naturally on Earth, not in its pure form but as a constituent of other minerals, only two of which support commercial extraction and processing - wolframite ((Fe, Mn)WO4) and scheelite (CaWO4).
Tungsten has the highest melting point of all elements except carbon – around 3400°C giving it excellent high temperature mechanical properties and the lowest expansion coefficient of all metals. Tungsten is a metal of considerable strategic importance, essential to modern industrial development (across aerospace and defence, electronics, automotive, extractive and construction sectors) with uses in cemented carbides, high-speed steels and super alloys, tungsten mill products and chemicals.
Tungsten Mining has three advanced tungsten projects in Australia: the Mt Mulgine Project in the Murchison region, the Big Hill Project in the Pilbara region and the Kilba Project in the Ashburton region of Western Australia. The Mt Mulgine, Big Hill and Kilba Projects, together contain Mineral Resources reported at a 0.10%WO3 cut-off grade comprising Indicated Resources of 15.4Mt at 0.20% WO3 and 26ppm Mo and Inferred Resources of 73.2Mt at 0.17% WO3 and 220ppm Mo, totalling 88.6Mt at 0.18% WO3 and 186ppm Mo. This represents more than 15.5 million MTU (metric tonne units) of WO3 and 16,480 tonnes of contained Molybdenum.
Tungsten Mining is currently identifying opportunities for near term tungsten production, particularly from the Mulgine Hill and Mulgine Trench deposits within the Mt Mulgine Project.
