Exploration Program
Exploration efforts during the Quarter have focussed on the review of exploration data acquired during the previous Quarter, planning of follow up exploration programs and conduct of aboriginal heritage clearances.
1. Wiluna Project
Zeus’ proposed Program of Works (PoW) detailing proposed follow up drilling on the Lake Way and Yeelirrie South Projects was approved by the Department of Mines & Petroleum (DMP) in the previous Quarter.
During the Quarter, Zeus conducted an aboriginal heritage clearance on its’ Wiluna tenements with a total of 26 locations cleared for Zeus’ follow-up drilling program proposed for 2016.
2. Narnoo Project
Exploration efforts during the quarter have focussed on review of available drill data to facilitate planning of exploration drilling in 2016.
A proposed Program of Works has been submitted to the DMP for review and approval prior to drilling commencement in 2016.
Planned work is likely to involve a preliminary drilling program to confirm uranium grade and thicknesses at Narnoo South prior to completing a drill-out to define the mineralised area (s) within the Driller’s Palaeochannel. Additional potential exists for a lignite resource within the palaeochannel and will also be tested by planned drilling.

3. Gascoyne Project
Work during the quarter comprised ongoing review, data capture and analysis of historical exploration data within the region. Follow up field work and mapping of previously identified Iron-Oxide hosted Uranium and Base Metal prospects (Figure 3) is planned for Q2 2016 in order to facilitate exploration drilling of these targets.
Zeus’ new tenement application (E09/2147) covering outcropping base metal mineralisation at the Reid Well prospect, has continued to progress.
