MinRex Resources Limited announced that after some considerable delays on the part of the contracted field team, the results have now been received from the fourth evaluation and sampling program at its 70% owned East Pilbara tenements. This team subsequently spent four weeks on site, visiting all of the project areas to conduct metal-detecting, surface sampling and mapping. During this work, five small gold nuggets were recovered at the Marble Bar North (P45/3040) Project area, adding to the six nuggets collected there in the previous metal detecting exercise, in December 2017. Gold-bearing quartz rock specimens were also recovered and a buried basal gravel layer, about 30-35cm thick was identified (inP45/3040), which may be the source of the gold nuggets. The other project areas were also visited and extensive metal detecting was conducted, but without the recovery of any further nuggets. Further exploration programs are due to commence at MinRex's East Pilbara Project areas as soon as possible after the summer months. This earlier metal detecting work, in December 2017, recovered six gold nuggets totaling 22.7g from the Marble Bar North tenement (P45/3040). The team also collected 20 rock chip samples from the Marble Bar South Project area (P45/3039) and also recovered one gold nugget at the Daltons Project exploration licence (E45/4681), as announced on the 15 January 2018. Marble Bar North: At the Marble Bar North Project (P45/3040) a total of five small gold nuggets, totaling 1.5gm in weight, were recovered during the current October 2018 exploration program. Also two quartz rock specimens were collected, these activated the metal detector, and when examined closely these were seen to contain small particles of gold on their surfaces. A total of 11 gold nuggets, weighing 24.2gms have now been recovered from the Marble Bar North Project area (P45/3040). Closer examination of the soil and gravel layers where these gold nuggets were discovered suggests that there is a thicker (80-90cm thick) coarse-grained layer of mainly quartz cobble scree at the surface which overlies a thinner finer-grained, sandy gravel layer (30-35cm thick); this basal layer sits directly on bedrock and is thought to be the layer that hosts the nuggets. Further sampling of this basal gravel layer is planned for subsequent exploration programs. Marble Bar South: At the Marble Bar South Project (P45/3039) extensive metal detecting was again conducted along the ridge line and over the slopes surrounding the old McKays Find gold mine workings. No nuggets were recovered during this work, which was hindered by the extensive amount of metallic rubbish and debris that occurs within this lease area; it is thought that this area has been used as a dumping ground in the past as it contains extensive deposits of old metal, bottles, building materials and other debris. Daltons Project: At the Daltons Project (E45/4681) extensive metal detecting was again conducted along the entire length of the old workings, some 1,500m of strike length. Again this work was hindered by the presence of metallic debris in the vicinity of most of the old workings. It was also noted that extensive metal detecting had been completed recently by other parties within the area of the old workings. It was recommended that a pattern soil sampling program be completed over the area of the old workings in the project area to better determine the most anomalous areas. Bamboo Creek Project: A number of anomalous gold assays have been received, in previous sampling programs, from various rock samples collected in the northern portion of the Bamboo Creek Project area, both along strike from the old Bamboo Creek gold mines and within the quartz vein hosted Norms Find and BC07 prospect areas. This northern part of the project area was subjected to extensive metal detecting in the vicinity of these previous anomalous results, but without the recovery of any gold nuggets.
