Highlights
-
Southern
Crown
has
completed
a
detailed
ground
magnetic
survey over
the
Luna–Luna
East
prospects. -
Magnetic
survey
has
highlighted
a
major
NE
fault
and
dyke
system, analogous
to
an
IRG
system
and
a
potential
breccia
pipe. -
A
scout
geochemical
sampling
program
commenced
during
August
to test
the
top
of
the
bedrock
and
target
follow-‐up
exploration. -
The
Company
has
completed
an
over-‐subscribed
placement,
receiving commitments
for
$650,000
to
meet
exploration
expenditure.
The
Directors
of
Southern
Crown
Resources
Limited ("Southern
Crown" or “the Company”) are
pleased
to
report
the
results
of
the
detailed
ground
geophysics survey
conducted
on
the
Luna-‐Quicksilver
project
during
August
2014.
The
Luna-‐Quicksilver
project
consists
of
the
50
Luna
claims,
owned
by
Kisa
Inc, the
70
Quicksilver
claims
owned
by
Black
Peak
LLC
and
13
North
Quicksilver claims
owned
by
North
Fork
LLC,
totaling
an
area
of
86km[2] ,
all
100%
optioned by
Southern
Crown.
The
Luna-‐Quicksilver
project
is
located
in
the
Tintina
Gold
belt,
a
belt
which hosts
a
number
of
world
class
intrusion
related
gold
(“IRG”)
systems
including Donlin
Creek
(45Moz@
2.21g/t),
Pogo
(5Moz
@
12.45g/t),
Fort
Knox
(produced over
5Moz),
Livengood
(20Moz
@
0.55g/t)
and
Shotgun
(0.7Moz
@1.02g/t).
The
ground
magnetic
survey
at
Luna-‐Quicksilver
has
highlighted
the
potential for
felsic
dykes
and
sills
within
the
altered
surrounding
sediments
(Figure
3).
In addition,
the
survey
has
highlighted
a
major
NE
trending
structural
break
SE
of Luna-‐Quicksilver
that
can
be
observed
readily
in
the
field.
Several
cross
cutting structures
and
a
potential
breccia
pipe
have
been
interpreted
from
the magnetic
data
requiring
field
validation.
Southern
Crown’s
Chairman,
Rhod
Grivas
commented: “ The
ground
geophysics has
provided
a
better
understanding
of
the
Luna-‐Quicksilver
prospects
and has
highlighted
a
number
of
areas
in
addition
to
the
outcropping
sulphidic veins
that
warrant
testing
with
the
scout
geochemical
program.
We
have
made
good
progress
on
completing
a
number
of
exploration initiatives
during
the
remaining
field
season,
this
includes
the
ground magnetics
but
also
channel
sampling,
scout
geochemical
drilling,
surface geochemical
sampling
and
local
and
regional
geological
mapping.”

**LUNA-‐QUICKSILVER
PROJECT**
The
Luna-‐Quicksilver
project
has
undergone
sporadic
exploration
since
2006
with
no
previous
drilling,
hamstrung by
limited
budgets
and
lack
of
focus.
Several
phases
of
geological
mapping,
stream
and
rockchip
geochemistry, channel
sampling
and
geophysics
have
highlighted
mineralization
over
5km
of
strike
in
a
much
larger
40km mineralised
structure.
A
shear
zone
with
over
700m
of
width
has
been
mapped
along
the
river
beds
underneath alluvial
cover,
representing
the
potential
for
a
big
target
system
close
to
the
surface
(Figure
2).
GEOPHYSICS
Although
a
number
of
geophysical
programs
have
been
conducted
at
Luna–Quicksilver
including
regional magnetics,
helimagnetic,
and
wide
spaced
ground
magnetics,
IP
and
EM,
no
detailed
survey
existed
directly
over the
Luna
and
Luna
East
sulphidic
vein
sets.
During
early
August
SJ
Geophysics
on
behalf
of
Southern
Crown, completed
a
102
line
km
survey
on
38
lines
spaced
100m
apart,
with
a
12.5m
sampling
frequency.

The
resulting
levelled
magnetic
response
(Figure
3)
shows
a
very
clear
structural
‘break’
striking
NE,
representing
a fault
(Luna
Fault).
The
current
geochemical
scout
drilling
has
shown
the
weathering
to
increase
in
proximity
to
the fault
zone
and
evidence
of
the
fault
can
be
seen
in
geological
outcrops.
To
the
SE
of
the
fault
a
lower
magnetic
unit characterized
by
the
green
blue
coloration
is
disrupted
by
higher
magnetic
NE
lineation’s,
which
appear
to
be associated
with
dyke
systems.
Scout
drilling
has
been
extended
across
these
features.
Passing
through
the
middle
of
the
survey
striking
north-‐south
is
a
major
cross-‐cutting
structure
close
to
the
Luna outcrop
and
extending
north
into
the
Quicksilver
helimagnetic
survey
area,
impacting
the
major
Luna
Fault.
In addition,
the
northern
section
of
the
survey
area
hosts
a
discrete
magnetic
‘low’
which
looks
similar
to
features
at Quicksilver
which
have
been
mapped
as
breccia
pipes.
**EXPLORATION
PROGRESS**
During
August
channel
sampling
commenced
along
the
river
banks
below
the
overburden.
The
channel
sampling involves
digging
away
up
to
0.5m
of
overburden
to
expose
underlying
bedrock.
Work
done
during
the
due-‐diligence has
indicated
that
this
is
an
effective
way
of
channel
sampling
and
geological
mapping
of
the
bedrock,
similar
to what
would
be
achieved
by
trenching
several
metres
through
the
overburden.

To
date
a
total
of
1600ft
(487m)
of
bedrock
channels
have
been
exposed
from
strategic
locations
along
the
stream cut
banks
around
Luna-‐Luna
East.
Samples
were
collected
at
10ft
(3m)
intervals
for
a
total
of
160
samples.
Samples are
in
transit
to
an
ALS
laboratory
in
Fairbank,
Alaska.
During
August
an
auger
rig
was
transported
to
the
Luna-‐Quicksilver
prospect
to
conduct
geochemical
scout
drilling through
the
cover
to
test
the
top
of
bedrock.
Early
geological
logging
has
located
the
Luna
Fault
and
associated fault
clays,
sulphides
associated
with
the
Luna
outcrop
and
dykes
located
SE
of
the
Luna
fault.
Samples
are
being collected
for
analysis.
**CAPITAL
RAISING**
The
Company
successfully
completed
an
oversubscribed
placement
to
raise
$650,000
to
provide
funding
for
the exploration
and
ongoing

the
Alaskan
projects.

subject
to
shareholder
approval,
with
a
shareholders meeting
scheduled
for
17
October
2014.

| Sampling techniques |
•Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. •Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. •Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |

Reporting
of
Exploration
Results
| Criteria | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Mineral tenement and land tenure status |
•Afranex employs a permit manager who ensured the tenure documentation is up to date. The claims can be viewed on the Alaska department of Natural Resources website. ACA Howe completed an independent review during April 2013, no independent review has been completed since. |
| Exploration done by other parties |
•Afranex engaged ACA Howe to write a 43-101 standard report on the projects. It details all exploration by other companies. A database and reports has also been provided by previous explorers. |
| Geology | •The mineralisation is located in a major NE regional shear zone associated with the bounding faults of the Tintina gold belt. Intrusions into the regional belt have hornfels and altered surrounding sedimentary country rock. Mineralisation has been emplaced in and around the intrusions suggesting the Luna-Quicksilver prospects have the potential to be IRG systems. |
| Drill hole Information |
•No drilling has been conducted by Southern Crown or Afranex. Historical drillhole information does not relate to Luna-Quicksilver. |
| Data aggregation methods |
•No data aggregation methods have been used. |
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
•No drilling has been conducted by Southern Crown or Afranex. Historical drillhole information that relates to Kisa represents wide low grade mineralization contained within a breccia pipe. |
| Diagrams | •Diagrams provided show location of projects, location of ground geophysics and some rockchips results. |
| Balanced reporting |
•Exploration is at an early stage and surface geochemistry and geophysics has been collected over all prospects over a 7 year period. Details have been provided in separate release on 20 Aug 2014. |
| Other substantive exploration data |
•Data provided on 20 August details early stage exploration including other geophysics, geological mapping and surface geochemistry. No drilling has been conducted by previous explorers at Luna- Quicksilver |
| Further work | •Company is conducting the next stage of exploration which includes geological mapping, surface and bedrock geochemistry to better locate follow-up targets. |
