Contributing factors – Pre-discovery
• Updated compilation and validation of all available exploration data
• Knowledge from previous exploration on a regional and deposit scale (eg. Toweranna)
• Updated geological interpretation and targeting
• Strong board support - funding and encouragement of regional exploration, focus on drilling
• Large scale heritage surveys clearing large areas for grass roots exploration
• Importance of effective drilling and sampling, over broad areas
• Importance of scale
45
Contributing factors – Syn-discovery
• Data capture and validation procedures reasonably streamlined and effective
• Early recognition of “Hemi-style” lithologies, alteration and mineralisation by rig geologists
• pXRF for As - allowed rapid follow up drilling before assays back
• Pre-existing relationships with drilling and assay companies
• Minimal Covid impact in WA
• Detailed geochem analysis – assist targeting at both regional and deposit scale
• Drill, drill, drill. Since Jan 2020 – 330km AC, 274km RC, 70km DD core
46
The Hunt for the next Hemi
▪ Geophysics and geochemistry
utilised to target prospective areas
▪ Identify new, mineralised intrusives
with wide-spaced aircore
▪ Test prospective areas with RC and
diamond drilling
▪ Step out and test along strike and
down dip of mineralisation
▪ Potential for mineralised intrusive
below sediments with minimal
anomalism
47
Looking ahead – MallinaProject
▪ Prefeasibility Study underway
▪ Hemi deposits still remain open, particularly at depth
▪ Numerous targets across tenements – Intrusion and shear-hosted
▪ Very low discovery cost of ~$8.50 per resource ounce
▪ Drilling ongoing (12-14 rigs) - Hemi, Greater Hemi and Regional
▪ Looking forward to adding ounces and the next discovery
48
Metallurgy
▪ Flotation to recover sulphide concentrate
(8% feed mass)
▪ Oxidation by pressure oxidation (POX),
bacterial oxidation (BIOX®), or ultra-fine
grinding (Albion®).
▪ Oxide samples are free milling, can bypass
the flotation and oxidation circuits
▪ 92.5% gold recoveries overall to date
