High-Grade Extensions at Depth and Along Strike Increase Size Potential at Sims Find
-
Reconnaissance RC drilling at the Sims Find gold prospect has returned high-grade intercepts at depth and up to 1.4km north west along strike from known mineralisation. Highlights include;
-
➢ 6m @ 8.97g/t Au from 172m including 1m @ 40.02g/t Au (YRLRC1011)
-
➢ 1m @ 10.25g/t Au from 81m (YRLRC1007)
-
High-grade mineralisation has now been intersected over 1.8km along strike, to maximum vertical depths of 250m and is open in all directions
-
The results improve the prospectivity of the greater Sims Find area and preparation has commenced for a detailed drone magnetic survey over a 7km by 4km area to assist with new target generation ahead of follow-up RC drilling
-
High-impact RC drilling has commenced at the Mt McClure gold project to test for extensions to known mineralisation
Yandal Resources’ Managing Director; Mr Lorry Hughes commented:
“Sims Find is a high-grade system and the new results demonstrate the depth and strike potential could be far greater than we initially thought. The high-grade nuggetty nature of the mineralisation will require us to conduct infill drilling to generate robust estimates on the continuity and grade of the most promising lodes.
Initially we conducted detailed drilling over 400m of strike on 50m spaced lines which returned some spectacular results up to 129g/t Au[1] . This follow-up program was much more widely spaced at 400m along strike and it has returned similar results directly along strike from a limited number of holes.
We interpret the same mineralising system is present within the widely spaced drilling areas as there is in the closer spaced drilling areas. By increasing the density of drilling it is likely we can increase the number of high-grade intercepts.
The controlling structures and features of the Sims Find mineralisation are not well understood and future exploration programs will be directed towards understanding the geological framework of the greater area including the margins to the intrusive granite to the south which is known to host historic mineralisation”.

At the Sims Find Prospect results have been received from the final eight reverse circulation (“RC”) drill holes completed in the June Quarter as follow-up to earlier shallow high-grade RC intercepts[1] completed along strike and beneath historic workings (Figures 2-6).
The holes were drilled on three 400m spaced lines north west along strike of the Sims Find historic shallow underground workings and beneath the workings themselves to test for large-scale mineralisation extensions. Several high-grade intervals were returned including;
-
➢ 6m @ 8.97g/t Au from 172m including 1m @ 40.02g/t Au and 1m @ 10.89g/t Au 2m @ 1.49g/t Au from 182m including 1m @ 2.81g/t Au 2m @ 2.21g/t Au from 293m including 1m @ 4.28g/t Au (YRLRC1011)
-
➢ 2m @ 1.07g/t Au from 22m including 1m @ 1.98g/t Au 2m @ 2.86g/t Au from 207m including 1m @ 5.59g/t Au (YRLRC1013)
-
➢ 1m @ 10.25g/t Au from 81m
-
1m @ 1.17g/t Au from 102m (YRLRC1014)
The results are considered to be highly encouraging as the limited drilling has intersected high-grades within a mineralised system extending over 1.8km in strike and to depths exceeding 250m vertically (Figures 3-4). All new results are listed in Table 1.

The earlier closer spaced RC drilling returned some spectacular shallow intercepts within multiple quartz veins, sulphides and shears hosted within a dolerite and basalt sequence. Similar geology has been observed within the new holes providing strong encouragement for the identification of additional highgrades with infill and extensional drilling. Highlights from the December Quarter 2020 RC drilling included;

Figure 4 – Sims Find prospect schematic cross section plan (B – B’, refer Figure 2 for location) over interpreted geology, weathering domains and interpreted mineralisation envelopes. Drilling results on this section have all been previously released by Yandal Resources.
A downhole televiewer three-dimensional logging program was conducted on a number of recent holes to assist with the compilation of a robust geological interpretation of the structural aspects controlling the highgrade mineralisation[1] . The logging confirmed a consistent perpendicular to hole axis south westerly dip of the narrow mineralisation zones and will be used for follow-up target generation at depth and along strike.
In light of the encouraging results, to assist with compilation of regional geological interpretation and new exploration targets surrounding the Sims Find prospect, preparation has commenced to complete a detailed drone magnetic survey once approvals are in place.
The survey will extend over a 7km by 4km area, cover possible strike extensions of the Sims Find mineralisation and include the margins of 4km long intrusive granite located only 1km to the south (Figures 5 & 6).

At the Cash Prospect one 304m RC hole was completed beneath historic workings which is located 1.5km north along strike from Northern Star Resources Ltd’s (ASX: NST, or “Northern Star”) Corboys gold deposit (Figure 6). A number of significant intervals were returned from the upper section of the hole including;
- ➢ 2m @ 1.18g/t Au from 26m including 1m @ 1.90g/t Au 3m @ 2.26g/t Au from 56m including 1m @ 4.55g/t Au (YRLRC1016)
Recent RC drilling by Northern Star has returned downhole intercepts including 34m @ 4.0g/t Au[1] , 5m @ 21.1g/t Au[1] and 26m @ 3.4g/t Au[1] . All results from hole YRLRC01016 are tabulated in Table 1 and refer to ASX announcement dated 1 July 2021 for a more detailed location map.

– Mt McClure Gold Project HMS Sulphur, Success and Parmelia Prospects
The 100% owned Mt McClure project is located 20km via existing haul roads from the Bronzewing processing facility owned by Northern Star and contains three historic open pit mines over a 12km long mineralised trend on granted Mining Leases (Figures 1 & 7).
A high-impact RC program has commenced to follow-up a number of significant results returned from a successful RC program completed in the March Quarter[1] . A total of 26 angled RC holes were completed at the HMS Sulphur, Success, Parmelia and Challenger prospects which has provided a number of excellent exploration targets beneath and adjacent to the historically mined open pits.
Currently ~4,000m of deep RC drilling holes to a maximum depth of 350m are planned to test the size potential of the highest priority targets, some of which are shown in Figures 8-11. Drilling is expected to be complete by mid-September with results available in the December Quarter.
