Directors

A 6000m program was completed at Dibete during the quarter with significant Cu-Ag mineralisation intersected along two northwest – southeast trending structures.

Some of the most significant intersections from this drilling include:-

  • 11m @ 4.5% Cu 229.9g/t Ag from 33m in DBRC028 (includes 3m @ 8.16% Cu 469g/t Ag)

  • 17m @ 2.7% Cu 40.5g/t Ag from 16m in DBRC081 (includes 3m @ 6.7% Cu 44.5g/t Ag from 24m & 3m @4.7% Cu 106.9g/t Ag from 27m)

Registered Office

  • 12m @ 1.8% Cu 42g/t Ag from 33m in DBRC094 (includes 4m @ 4.2% Cu 95g/t Ag from 37m)

  • 6m @ 2.3% Cu 117g/t Ag from 34m in DBRC097 (includes 2m @ 5.7% Cu 322.5g/t Ag from 34m)

  • 9m @ 2.8% Cu 87.3g/t Ag from 33m in DBRC107

  • 10m @ 3.9% Cu 110g/t Ag from 43m in DBRC108 (includes 4m @ 9.2% Cu 268g/t Ag from 43m)

Contact

The mineralisation is still open along both structures (6100E and 6400E) and consists of both secondary oxide and sulphide mineralisation. The sulphide mineralogy consists of supergene and primary zones of chalcocite, pyrite and bornite vein swarms. The primary mineralisation may extend to the south associated with a VTEM anomaly. This needs to be confirmed by additional drilling.

Interpretation of satellite imagery has identified further structures parallel to those known to control the mineralisation on lines 6100E and 61400E.

Airstrip Copper

An 16 hole RC drill program recently completed to evaluate the supergene mineralisation at Airstrip Copper prospect intersected primary Cu-Ag mineralisation associated with a second IP conductor. Hole ACRC 067 intersected:-

  • 6 m @ 2.7% Cu and 72g/t Ag from 68m

  • Including 1 m @ 8.8% Cu and 214g/t Ag from 70m

This intersection confirms that this second IP conductor (C12, Figure 1), some 250m to the south of the discovery hole in the first conductor (C6, Figure 1), is also associated with primary Cu–Ag mineralisation. The hole intersected the western end of a 400m long IP anomaly. Modelling of data is in progress.

At least 16 IP conductors have been identified for a total strike length of 1900m within the IP grid covering 1.5km x 1km.

As announced on 21[st] July 2011 a further five IP conductors and one VTEM anomaly will be drill tested commencing in late July 2011.

Maibele North

New VTEM targets within the area of the known Maibele North Ni-Cu mineralisation have been identified. These are oblique to the general trend of the host serpentinite and mineralisation, and have not been effectively tested by previous drilling. RC and diamond drilling of these targets is planned for next quarter.

Dibete Prospect

A 93 hole RC drilling program was completed at the Dibete (6356m) and Dibete East (150m) prospects. Dibete East is considered to be an eastwards extension of the Dibete prospect that extends eastwards out of PL 111/94, through PL 54/98 and into PL 47/2004.

The drilling on Dibete prospect was specifically aimed at testing the supergene mineralisation present and to identify controls on the distribution of mineralisation.

All significant intersections are included in Table 2, and include:-

  • 11m @ 4.5% Cu 229.9g/t Ag from 33m in DBRC028 (includes 3m @ 8.16% Cu 469g/t Ag)

  • 17m @ 2.7% Cu 40.5g/t Ag from 16m in DBRC081 (includes 3m @ 6.7% Cu 44.5g/t Ag from 24m & 3m @4.7% Cu 106.9g/t Ag from 27m)

  • 12m @ 1.8% Cu 42g/t Ag from 33m in DBRC094 (includes 4m @ 4.2% Cu 95g/t Ag from 37m)

Four types of mineralisation are evident from this drilling and are related to the degree of oxidation. Supergene oxide copper is exposed at surface in outcrops, trenches and old workings, and typically up to 35 metres downhole. Mineralogy consists of malachite, azurite, and chrysocolla. This zone forms a blanket spreading out from the underlying primary mineralisation. RC drill results typically show Cu enrichment concentrated between 18 to 35 metres in this zone.

A supergene sulphide transition zone is typically found from about 35 to 38 metres downhole consisting of chalcocite and pyrite with minor malachite. Laboratory results show Cu values gradually increase through the transitional zone approaching the primary mineralisation.

From approximately 38 to 41 metres is a mixed primary and supergene sulphide zone consisting of chalcocite, pyrite, and bornite vein swarms with traces of malachite seen on fractures. Assay results indicate the primary bornite vein swarms, as well as the supergene mineralisation, have associated silver.

Previously identified satellite imagery linears (Figure 1) were found to be the controlling structures on the broad distribution of supergene oxide mineralisation and on the location of supergene sulphide and primary mineralisation at greater depth.

Modelling of the mineralisation has shown that a supergene oxide zone is more extensive than the underlying supergene sulphide and primary zone mineralisation as shown in the cross section in Figure 3. Long section for Line 6100E is included as Figure 2.

The final data for the VTEM survey was received and has been interpreted. Additional holes have now been recommended at Dibete to test for primary mineralisation.

In addition to the new interpretations at Dibete, coverage over the Crescent prospect has been acquired and will be further interpreted in relation to previous drilling carried out by BML.

Trenching is planned for Dibete across both the ground EM axes and across the satellite imagery linears, now considered to be faults. This program is to be completed in the September quarter and is aimed at identifying the nature of the structures that control mineralisation. To date 100 metres of trenching has been completed.

PL 110/94 Magogphate

Airstrip Copper Prospect

During the June Quarter the Company undertook an 16 hole Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program (Holes ACRC053-70) totalling 1361 metres that was principally aimed at testing the supergene copper potential along a northwest-southeast anomalous corridor as defined by soil geochemistry and surface outcrops (including trenches) of secondary copper mineralisation.

Many of these supergene targets are close to previously identified IP conductors that are due to be drilled later this month in a program of combined diamond and RC drilling.

This drill program intersected secondary copper mineralisation in several holes but didn’t define an extensive high grade blanket of supergene copper as seen at the Dibete prospect. Results of the drilling are listed in Table 1 and include:-

  • ACRC069 5m @ 0.31% Cu and 0.98g/t Ag from 3m

  • ACRC070 5m @ 0.25% Cu and 1.4g/t Ag from 14m

  • ACRC057 3m @ 0.35% Cu and 0.2g/t Ag from 25m

By far the most significant hole, ACRC067, intersected 6 metres of primary mineralisation at the western end of IP conductor C12 (Figure 4). This hole intersected:-

  • 6 m @ 2.66% Cu and 71.9g/t Ag from 68m

  • Including 3 metres @ 3.77% Cu and 92.6g/t Ag from 69m

  • Including 1 metre @ 8.83%Cu and 214g/t Ag from 70m

Previous intersections to the east of ACRC067 in holes ACRC004 and 005 (Figure 4) are low grade, which is now recognised from additional work at the Discovery Conductor (C6) as a probable halo of lower grade or thinner veins surrounding high grade mineralisation.

Some minor gold to 0.45g/t found over 1 metre was intersected in the primary zone but was not associated with either Cu or Ni or Zn anomalies in the drill cuttings.

Ten additional trenches to obtain geological/geochemical data were completed across a series of IP Resistivity low axes or conductors, that are to be drilled in the September quarter. The Airstrip Copper discovery was made by drilling one of these IP conductors. A total of 670 metres of trenches were excavated (Figure 2) with visible copper mineralisation in trenches T2, T5 and T9.

Soil sampling to the west and south west of the existing grid has also been completed with a total of 1278 samples collected. Assay results are currently being assessed.

VTEM interpretations were completed at Airstrip Copper and elsewhere in PL 110/94 following receipt of the final data from Geotech Airborne Surveys. Targets were defined in detail and now require drilling. One VTEM target is present at Airstrip Copper and will be drilled in the September quarter.

Additional IP is also planned for the Airstrip Copper prospect to extend coverage to the west and south west over the new soil grid. The anomalies in the Resistivity survey were not closed off in this direction previously and additional mineralised zones are anticipated in this new IP survey area.

Detailed interpretation of previous soil geochemistry was undertaken to assist with targeting of the recently completed supergene copper drill program at Airstrip Copper. Trends in both the regional structural direction of NE as well as in a NW direction are evident.

Compilation of intersections of supergene copper in previous trenches was also undertaken to assist with drill targeting.

Drilling of highly ranked IP conductors is to commence in the last week in July. Figure 4 shows the location of the target zones and the relationship to previous drill holes.

Maibele North

Mapping of old workings was carried out at Maibele North as potential for supergene copper is thought to be present. Pits excavated previously had fragments of malachite present in the soils confirming that copper had been the target in this previous work. The following map shows the distribution of the old workings in relation to drill holes. Few if any of the holes would have tested for the supergene potential under the old workings.

Figure 6 shows the distribution of old workings on two different horizons over a strike length of 90 metres at Maibele North.

The VTEM final data was received and interpreted to accurately model the anomalies. At Airstrip Copper one anomaly was identified in relatively close proximity to the discovery conductor, but apparently as a separate parallel conductive body. This conductor is to be drilled in the September quarter.

At Maibele North two separate conductors were identified that when modelled were shown to be at a significant angle to the regional structural trend but with a similar trend to the known mineralisation. These two conductors were not adequately drilled in the past and will also be drilled in the September quarter.

In addition prospect 20B has now been shown to contain two VTEM anomalies, which are associated with an extensive base metals anomaly in both soils and stream sediments. Drilling of the VTEM anomalies is scheduled for the September quarter.

VTEM anomaly 10470-a lies on a different structural trend than the 20B prospect and could be a new zone of mineralisation. Ground follow up over this anomaly will be carried out next quarter.

PL 54/98 Takane

VTEM interpretation was completed over the tenement with identification of new targets and better definition of old targets. Twenty seven of the identified 46 targets modelled in the Magogaphate VTEM Block lie within PL 54/98 (Figure 7).

An extensive program of ground follow up of the targets within this tenement is now being planned. Some follow up has been carried out previously by BML and will be used to assist in drill hole planning.

Grid recovery has been carried out on Makhantlele and Kudumane grids to use the previous geochemical data with the current geo-referenced data sets. Recovery of the Mmatsiane and Jumbo grids was successfully carried out in the past.

Figure 7. Location of VTEM anomalies and previous prospects on PL47/2004 Gobe Shear.

One RC hole was drilled targeting VTEM anomaly 10555-a on the Dibete East prospect without encountering significant mineralisation. Further assessment of this area will be undertaken to determine whether satellite linears recently identified are significant in terms of mineralisation. Linears identified will be followed up by soil sampling and possibly drilling.

In addition a further VTEM anomaly, No. 11340-a, was located at the intersection of NW trending and NNE trending satellite linears. The NW trending linears are along strike from the linear identified on Line 6100E at Dibete prospect which is strongly mineralised. The prospect lies approximately 2km along strike of the satellite linear from DBRC006 at Dibete prospect.

Further ground follow up on this prospect is to be carried out in the September quarter.

PL59/2008 Shashe South

Soil sampling was carried out on a grid that covered potential extensions of a known ultramafic body in PL 46/2004 that is thought to be mineralised. Soil sampling was carried out over 6 lines with a total of 844 samples collected. Results are currently being interpreted (Figure 8).

PL46/2004 Sampowane

Six RC drill holes for a total of 420 metres were drilled on mafic bodies and base metal anomalies defined by soil sampling (Figure 9). The holes intersected amphibolites, serpentinites and probable altered equivalents of amphibolites. Geochemical analyses showed no significant anomalies. Additional follow up of the potentially mineralised horizons is warranted.

A regional stream sediment follow up survey was completed in the June Quarter. The aim was to test around areas previously found to have anomalous values and to restrict the search area to be tested with additional follow up techniques such as soil sampling, mapping and ground geophysics.

An extension application was made over the tenement which is now subject to determination by the Department of Geological Survey.

PL44/2004 Shashe East

A desktop review and data compilation was undertaken in the Quarter.

Ultramafic bodies containing gossans are known in the tenement application area adjoining PL 44/2004 to the north.

A review of previous GEOTEM data does not indicate anomalous responses within PL 44/2004. Interpretation of satellite imagery suggests that there may be very iron rich rock types present in the NW corner of the tenement that could be part of the ultramafic sequence previously located outside PL 44/2004. Follow up of this area is planned for the September Quarter.

PL 47/2004 Gobe Shear

Dibete East Prospect

One drill hole was drilled into VTEM anomaly 11555-a to test an alternate interpretation of the anomaly. This hole was 150 metres deep and did not intersect any significant mineralisation.

Interpretation was also undertaken on VTEM anomaly 11340-a with a very low order response found that did not warrant drilling.

Further work on satellite imagery interpretation is in progress and is expected to assist in further evaluation of the Dibete East prospect area.

PL48/2004 Shashe West

Two RC holes were drilled targeting VTEM anomalies associated with an amphibolite horizon. Previous Gold prospecting has been reported to have taken place which is not surprising given the gold and arsenic anomalies obtained by BML drainage sampling close to the amphibolite horizon. Drilling intersected graphite and minor sulphides with no significant levels of gold.

PL 14/2003 Majante

The VTEM survey covered part of this tenement and the anomalies related to the Mmamanaka prospect were reinterpreted and then reconciled against previous drilling. It was found that only one of the 11 holes previously drilled is likely to have adequately tested its target. The previous IP data when used in conjunction with the new VTEM data gives a more accurate interpretation.

Additional checking of the targets is now required using soil geochemical data to determine ranking of the new target areas.

PL 70/2008

No significant work was undertaken during the quarter. Previous soil samples were dispatched to the laboratory and will be further interpreted when results are available.

Recovery of the 20B grid on the adjoining PL110/94 is in progress and will allow use of extensive geochemical data obtained by a previous explorer that is thought to cover the anomalous part of PL 70/2008.

PL360/2008 Mmadinare

Soil sampling was carried out on a grid that covered potential extensions of a known ultramafic body in PL 46/2004 that is thought to be mineralised. Soil sampling was carried out over 6 lines with a total of 844 samples collected (Figure 8). Results are currently being interpreted.

PL158/2009 Lepokole

Drainage sampling on the Lepokole tenement to target the interpreted amphibolite units was completed with a total of 66 samples. Some of the samples were taken to follow up a significant silver anomaly recovered from the previous stream sediment sampling program. Sample locations are shown on Figure 10. Results have not yet been received from the laboratory.

Additional satellite imagery interpretation to look for structures similar to those controlling mineralisation at Dibete is in progress.
