MT SYDNEY TENEMENT GRANTED
-
E45/4939 granted covering Tando’s 100% owned Mt Sydney Project.
-
Seventeen near surface EM anomalies delineated earlier in 2018 from Tando’s VTEM survey, along with a broad coincident EM and magnetic anomaly.
-
EM anomalies are clustered along regional scale structures extending directly from Rumble’s Braeside Project into the Mt Sydney Project.
-
Fieldwork can now commence to ground truth these anomalies and ascertain their geological setting as well as surface geochemistry.
Tando Resources (“ Tando ” or “ the Company ”) is pleased to advise that E45/4939 has been granted, which covers its 100% owned Mt Sydney Project in Western Australia.
The Mt Sydney Project is located adjacent to, and along strike from, Rumble Resources (ASX.RTR, “ Rumble ”) Braeside Project. Zinc-lead mineralisation within the Braeside Project has been confirmed by Rumble’s 2017 drill programme (refer ASX.RTR Announcement 16 January 2018) and is associated with major regional structures which extend directly from the Braeside Project into the Mt Sydney Project (Figure 1).
The company’s geophysical consultants Southern Geoscience Consultants carried out an interpretation of data from a VTEMmax survey flown by Tando in December 2017 (refer ASX Announcement 18 January 2018). Careful examination of the electromagnetic data delineated numerous conductors that correlate with important target structures interpreted to be part of the Braeside Fault Zone, as well as stratigraphic contacts of prospective volcanic lithologies (refer ASX Announcements 26 February 2018 and 13 April 2018).
Due to the strong correlation between early time near surface conductors and known structures in the area, the EM interpretation is also likely to be a valuable tool to identify new structures of interest that have not been mapped in the surface geology. Most of the mapped structures in the area produced distinct early time EM responses probably caused by preferential weathering over structural features. More importantly, numerous stronger EM anomalies are also evident over strike limited portions of these significant structures which extend directly from Rumble Resources’ Braeside Project further north. These conductors are considered high priority targets and warrant follow-up.
In addition a broad coincident magnetic and EM anomaly has been detected in the south of the Mt Sydney project area (Figure 2). While further processing and geological information is required to refine this target it appears to be a deeper-intrusive, larger body. Rumble has stated that the Braeside drill results supported a porphyry related base metal deposit style model and the magnetic and EM anomaly observed at Mt Sydney could be consistent with a target of this nature, or other intrusion related mineralisation styles. The current interest in intrusive hosted mineralisation in the Eastern Pilbara makes this target worth of further investigation.

A total of seventeen targets were identified from the interpretation from which nine are considered high priority (refer ASX Announcement 13 April 2018, Figure 3 and Table 1). The main criterion for ranking the targets is based on the target strength, strike length and the correlation with prospective structures and lithological contacts.

Tando’s designed field activities at the Mt Sydney Project will make the anomalies detected in the VTEMmax survey the initial focus of on ground investigations. Detailed geological and geochemical information are planned to be collected to refine and prioritise these targets. Given the Company’s current priority at the SPD Vanadium Project the Company will also investigate whether a sale or joint venture of this 100% owned asset could provide fair value for shareholders.
