Exploration Program

No fieldwork was completed during the quarter on tenements managed by Zeus Resources Ltd, however a stream sediment geochemical sampling program was undertaken at Mortimer Hills by joint venture partner Segue Resources Ltd.

Wiluna Project

Zeus continues to explore options for follow up drilling on the Lake Way and Yeelirrie South Projects.

The proposed drilling is a follow up to a successful drilling program conducted in December 2014 where prospective reduced sediments were determined to be widespread at depth within the Lake Way and Yeelirrie Palaeochannels, with two regionally extensive target sand horizons determined to be restricted to the palaeovalley.

The follow up drill program has been planned to target these prospective reduced palaeochannel sandstones within the Kukububba (Lake Way) and Yeelirrie South Palaeochannels.

Approval for this drilling program has been granted by the DMP, and Aboriginal heritage clearance also obtained for these drill locations within the Lake Way and Yeelirrie South Project areas.

Narnoo Project

The Narnoo South project remains an area of strong interest for Zeus, and as at the Wiluna Project options for follow up drilling of the Narnoo South (E28/2097) uranium prospect are currently being explored.

The follow up drilling program of 12 (priority 1) holes at Narnoo South is designed to confirm uranium grade and thicknesses within the Driller’s Palaeochannel which was identified during the drilling program conducted in May 2015.

Approval for this drilling program has been granted by the DMP for these drill locations and Zeus currently plans to undertake the proposed drilling in the first half of 2017.

Gascoyne Project

During the reporting period, joint venture partner Segue Resources Ltd carried out a stream sediment survey and a geochemical review over E09/1618. A total of 160 Stream sediment samples were collected over the tenement at an average sample density of 2.5 samples per square kilometre.

Results from the stream sediment program over E09/1618, and the wider project region, showed a strong correlation amongst the LCT Pegmatite pathfinder elements Li‐Cs‐Ta + Be, Rb, Nb, Sn. More specifically the samples collected over E09/1618 highlighted some weak anomalism in the vicinity of Camel Hill where stream sediment sampling did not quite cover the entire prospective area (see Figure 2 below).

This work has continued to support the projects prospectivity to host LCT pegmatites.

A follow‐up stream sediment sampling program is anticipated to be completed in the next quarter by Segue Resources to allow further evaluation of the prospectivity of the Camel Hill Prospect to be undertaken.

It is estimated that a further 20‐60 stream sediment samples will be collected and analysed from E09/1618 to allow evaluation of the Camel Hill Prospect.

Discussions with Segue Resources Ltd will also take place during the next quarter with regard to potentially incorporating newly granted tenement E09/2147 in to the Mortimer Hills Joint Venture.
