TODD RIVER EXPANDS STRATEGIC EXPLORATION FOOTPRINT NEAR McARTHUR RIVER ZINC MINE

Highlights

  • New tenure secured adjoining the existing McArthur River Project.

  • Total ground position more than doubled to 584km[2] .

  • Results from recent SkyTEM airborne survey over existing McArthur River tenements expected shortly.

Todd River Resources Limited (ASX: TRT) is pleased to advise that it has applied for two new Exploration Licenses that adjoin its existing McArthur River Project tenure (EL 27711 and 30085), significantly expanding its strategic exploration footprint in this highly prospective zinc-lead province.

The additional tenements will expand its 100%-owned McArthur River Project area to 584.32km[2] , adding 361.04km[2] and more than doubling the area of its existing granted tenure (see Table 1). Figure 1 shows the location of the new Exploration Licence Applications (ELA 31703 and ELA 31704), which adjoin the existing two tenements (EL 27711 and EL 30085).

Both the new licenses contain the target stratigraphic unit known as the Wollogorang Formation, which contains both strataform/stratabound copper (see TNG ASX releases 16 February 2015, 9 June 2015) and zinc-lead-silver mineralisation (see TNG ASX release 14 July 2016) and which is being targeted by current Todd River Resources work programs on existing tenure.

This stratigraphic sequence is highly prospective for zinc-copper-lead-silver massive sulphide deposits of a style similar to the world-class McArthur River (HYC) deposit, being mined by Glencore, as well as the newly discovered Teena deposit. Todd River’s tenure is located 60-90km to the south-west, and on the opposite margin of the Batten Fault Zone from the HYC deposit.

Next Steps

The two new tenements should be granted prior to the end of the coming wet season, allowing field exploration to commence in the second quarter of 2018. The prospective sequence on the new ground will be geologically mapped and sampled in 2018, with airborne EM geophysical surveys also being considered. Results from a recently completed SkyTEM airborne survey over existing tenure are expected shortly.
