FIELD VISIT AND PROPOSED DRILLING OF MORTIMER HILLS PROJECT
Zeus Resources Ltd (ACN 139 183 190) (ASX: ZEU ) (“ Zeus ” or “the Company ”) is pleased to announce that the Company has carried out a field trip, will submit a Program of Works (POW) application to drill on E09/2147 at its Mortimer Hills Project approximately 130 km northeast of Gascoyne Junction in Western Australia.
Zeus’ proposed RC drilling program will test previously mapped pegmatites in the Pooranoo Metamorphics along the contact with the Thirty Three Supersuite granite.
Zeus has applied for two new tenements (E09/2791 and E09/2798). The tenement applications cover approximately 18.69 km[2] and 24.92 km[2] respectively of the Durlacher and Thirty-Three Supersuite granitic rocks that are regionally associated with lithium and REE bearing pegmatites (Figure 1).
About fourteen companies have applied for the tenement of E09/2791 and thirteen companies have applied for the tenement of E09/2798, which are subject to ballots to determine the successful applicants.
“ We are very pleased to see the drilling will be starting in our highly prospective lithium and REE project area. The potential to add more tenements to our Mortimer Hills Project will also help us build up our lithium and REE assets portfolio. ” said Mr Jian (Daniel) Liu, Executive Director of Zeus .
MORTIMER HILLS PROJECT (E09/2147, E09/2791 & E09/2798)
During March 2023, the Company geologists carried out a field trip to confirm earlier mapping of pegmatites, take selected rockchip, soil and stream sediment samples for chemical analysis and to plan access for the planned RC drilling program.
GEOLOGY
The Zeus tenements lie within the heart of the Proterozoic Gascoyne Province, posi�oned more broadly within the Capricorn Orogen — a major zone of tectonism formed between the Archean Yilgarn and Pilbara cratons. The Mor�mer Hills Project sits along the northern edge of the Mutherbukin Zone, along the Ti Tree Syncline and dominated by the Thirty-Three supersuite, a belt of plutons comprised primarily of foliated metamonzogranite, monzogranite and granodiorite in contact with the Pooranoo Metamorphics. Rare-earth and lithium bearing pegma�tes have been ASX: iden�fied, in par�cular the Yinnietharra Lithium Project being developed by Red Dirt Metals ( RDT ) (htps://reddirtmetals.com.au/our-projects/yinnetharra-lithium/), in the district associated with the Thirty Three supersuite granites (Figure 1).

The pegmatites mapped in 2022 were confirmed during the field trip, and since the creeks had recently flowed some of these pegmatites were better exposed and several previously buried pegmatites have now been exposed (Figure 2 and Figure 3).

PLANNED DRILLING PROGRAM
==> picture [452 x 386] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 4: Planned RC drilling at Mortimer Hills.
Once all the necessary approvals have been obtained, Zeus intends to progressively RC drill on an appropriate grid, along strike of the Yinnietharra Lithium Project ( RDT ) pegmatites, along the contact between the Thirty Three supersuite granites and the Pooranoo Metamorphics. The initial drilling for about 1,700 m will concentrate on the mapped pegmatites centrally located in E09/2147 and across the granite greenstone contact in the northwest of E09/2147 closer to the RDT’s Yinnietharra tenement (Figure 4 and Table 2).
All the drilling will be Reverse Circulation (RC) with the holes inclined at 60 degrees to the west. The hole depths and spacing along the section lines is designed to have 100% horizontal coverage such that the base of a hole is directly below the collar of the next hole along the section line. This configuration ensures that any vertical pegmatites or dipping towards the east (as indicated by the field mapping) will be intersected by this drilling.

WILUNA PROJECT (E53/1603 & E53/2197)
Geological exploration is continuing at the Wiluna Project, located near the township of Wiluna approximately 540 km north of Kalgoorlie, next to the Lake Way Project (previously owned by Salt Lake Potash Limited ( ASX: SO4 ) (https://so4.com.au/projects/lake-way/ ) and recently acquired by Czech Investment Company Sev.en Global Investments.
Air-core drilling in September 2022 identified a free-flowing aquifer containing sulphate of potash brine flowing in a basal sand paleochannel approximately 3.5 km from the northerly margin of Salt Lake Potash’s Lake Way SOP deposit. This aquifer is suspected to be part of the underground feeder system for Lake Way’s SOP deposit.
Further exploration and activities including a detailed gravity survey and drilling is subject to the granting of the E53/2197 Exploration Licence.

BLUE HILLS PROJECT (E59/2804 & E59/2806)
Zeus has applied for two tenements (E59/2804 and E59/2806) approximately 60 km west of Paynes Find. These tenements cover approximately 90 km[2] southern end of the Warriedar Fold Belt along the contact between greenstones and granitic rocks that are considered to be highly prospective for lithium and REE bearing pegmatites, gold, and base metals.
Once the tenements have been granted, Zeus intend to carry out detailed mapping and geochemical sampling to determine accurately the granite/greenstone contact and locate any pegmatite outcrops. This mapping will be initially concentrated in the northwest of E59/2804 where a beryl in pegmatite sample was found.
After the extent of the greenstones has been accurately determined, soil sampling on an appropriately spaced grid will be carried out over the greenstones and adjacent granite to locate any geochemically anomalous areas that will be followed up with RC drilling.
MUSGRAVE PROJECT (E69/4147 & E69/4148)
Zeus has applied for two tenements (E69/4147 and E69/4148) 1,000 km northwest of Kalgoorlie and 1,600 km northwest from Perth in the Musgrave region of Western Australia. These tenements cover approximately 281 km[2] and 120 km[2] respectively and lie within one of Australia’s last underexplored and highly prospective frontier regions, the West Musgrave Province.
The Musgrave Province orogenic belt lies at the junction of three stable crustal landmasses or cratons that collided during an active period of plate tectonics in the Proterozoic. During this tectonically active period, magma from the upper mantle intruded the belt forming numerous massive mafic and ultramafic intrusions and volcanics. These rocks sourced from the mantle are rich in iron, base metals including copper and nickel, gold, platinum group elements (PGE), some rare earth elements (REE), chromite and vanadium.
Once the tenements have been granted and all the necessary agreements with the Traditional Owners and environmental agencies are in place, Zeus intend to carry out reconnaissance mapping and geochemical sampling to determine the outcropping lithologies.
This initial reconnaisance exploration will be followed up with targeted Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) soil sampling, based mainly on interpreting available geophysical data, on appropriately spaced grids to locate any geochemically anomalous areas. The MMI soil sampling technique uses an inovative analytical method that better discriminates metal anomalism in soils that may overcome the difficulties experienced by Rubicon in their soil sampling. Any MMI anomalous areas will be subsequently followed up with Aircore/RAB and eventually RC drilling.
