EPM26180 MT APLIN FINAL REPORT FOR PERIOD ENDING 03 AUGUST 2022

EPM 26180 Mt Aplin project was obtained to explore for a range of different styles of mineralisation. Exploration has focussed on phosphate mineralisation in the along the margins of the Cambrian Georgina Basin and base metal mineralisation within the Proterozoic in areas of the tenement with less than 200 m of Phanerozoic sediments. Desktop studies included a prospectivity assessment for phosphate mineralisation and Proterozoic IOCG exploration targets that could support current operations at Osborne. Previous explorers have completed significant work including modern geophysical surveys, RC drilling and diamond drilling. Numerous targets have been well-tested by these previous explorers with limited success. The EPM is considered to possess low potential for economic phosphate or IOCG mineralisation.
