Wilthorpe

 

Situated 25km south of the 1Mtpa mothballed Fortnum gold treatment plant, a 2.4km x 500m bedrock gold anomaly has been identified at Wilthorpe overlying an extensive sheeted vein and stringer system.

Systematic RAB drilling of this large anomaly has so far identified two zones with resource potential at Harrods Central and Harrods South.  RC drilling of these two zones identified resources totalling 61,600ozs of gold.

The information that relates to mineral resources is based on information compiled by Lynn Widenbar BSc, MSc, DIC, MAusIMM, employed by Widenbar  & Associates who are consultants to Meteoric Resources NL. Lynn Widenbar has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 edition of the ’Australasian Code of Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves.’ Lynn Widenbar consents to the inclusion of this information in the form and context in which it appears in this summary.

 

A concept study of the identified resources indicates potential for a modest open pit mining operation. Developments options are being examined.

 

Bullfinch

 

Drilling at the Rutherfords Find prospect, some 8km east of the 1.4Moz Copperhead gold mine has intersected encouraging gold grades with a best intercept of 4m at 10.1g/t from 71m.  The drilling highlighted the potential of this under explored area.  Geochemical sampling has identified a new 600m-long gold anomaly near Rutherfords.  A second weaker anomaly may represent a strike extension to Rutherfords.
