CANOBIE DRILL PROGRAM COMPLETED

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Two diamond holes completed at Kalarka magnetic-gravity-EM target
  • Mafic / ultramafic intrusive intersected analogous to nearby Tea Tree Ni-Cu Prospect
  • Multi-elementassays including Platinum Group Elements expected mid-December

Strategic Energy Resources Limited (ASX: SER) is pleased to announce completion of diamond drilling at the Kalarka Prospect within the Canobie Project, Northwest Queensland.

The two drill holes, which were collared 535m apart and totalled 1574m of drilling, were designed to test the Kalarka Prospect, a discrete 750 x 600m, 40nT aeromagnetic response characterised by an elevated Electromagnetic (EM) response and partially coincident anomalously higher density.

Drill holes CNDD001A and CNDD002 both intersected mafic / ultramafic intrusive units with evidence of disseminated and semi-massive magmatic sulphides as shown below (Fig 1,2). Simplified lithological logs are detailed in Appendix 1 & 2. The drill holes contain inherent similarities in host rocks and sulphide mineralisation style to the nearby Tea Tree Nickel-Copper Sulphide Prospect (Fig 3, Table 1) which recorded a 10.4m intersection at 0.25% Nickel and 0.28% Copper in drill hole TT00D11, located approximately 2.75km southeast of Kalarka.

Figure 1: CNDD001A at 635.9m down-hole showing matrix-textured sulphide zone (NQ core ~48mm diameter)

Visual estimates of sulphide potential and lithological logs are preliminary and final assays are required to determine the grade and thickness of any mineralisation.

The presence of a Tea Tree equivalent mafic system at Kalarka greatly increases the size of the known prospective mafic system. This expands the prospective search area worthy of further exploration for repeats or thicker/higher grade intersections of the mineralisation at Tea Tree and Kalarka.

Diamond core will be orientated, geologically logged, structurally logged and have petrophysical measurements taken. The basement core will be sampled and assayed for a multi-elemental suite that includes nickel, copper and platinum group elements using fire assay / inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The lithological descriptions will be confirmed following receipt of geochemical results and petrographic investigations which are expected to start arriving mid- December. Hole CNDD002 was terminated earlier than planned at 667.6m due to adverse hole conditions. Semi-massive sulphides were observed ~5m from the End of Hole at 662.2m downhole.

The drilling at Kalarka is co-funded through the Queensland Government Collaboration Exploration Initiative.2

The Canobie Project

The Canobie Project consists of seven exploration licences (1640km2) that cover an entire belt of the northern buried extension of the Mt Isa Eastern Succession. The area is located approximately 150km NNE of Cloncurry in northwest Queensland. The NNE trending magnetic belt on which the Canobie Project is located also hosts the giant Glencore & Evolution owned Ernest Henry Copper- Gold mine approximately 140km to the south. SER is targeting Iron Oxide Copper-Gold (IOCG) and

Ni-Cu-PGE sulphide mineralisation hosted in basement rocks buried beneath younger sedimentary cover of the Carpentaria Basin.

The basement geology within the project area is poorly understood and has been interpreted from geophysical datasets and limited deep diamond drilling. The nearest exposure of Mt Isa basement rocks is estimated to be over 70km to the southwest. Historical drilling has shown that basement rocks are buried beneath Mesozoic and younger sediments (comprising siltstone, sandstone, conglomerate and carbonate units of the Carpentaria Basin).

Less than 30 drillholes in the entire district have penetrated Proterozoic basement which include multiple high-grade gold hits at Saxby, Ni-Cu sulphides at the Tea Tree Prospect and numerous intersections of copper and uranium mineralisation in isolated drillholes within intensely altered rocks that have never been followed up. This extraordinary strike rate of intersecting mineralisation from a limited number of holes over a large area led SER to secure the entire belt.

Tea Tree Nickel-Copper Prospect

The Tea Tree Prospect was first identified by MIM Exploration through diamond drilling in 1994. Drillhole TT001D intersected 10m @ 0.28% Cu @ 0.25% Ni (from 508.2m). Mineralisation is associated with disseminated to semi-massive sulphides dominantly pyrrhotite with accessory chalcopyrite and pentlandite, hosted in a mafic / ultramafic intrusive system.

In 1995 MIM followed up with two additional drill holes, drilled approximately one kilometre southwest (TT004D) and northeast (TT005D) of drillhole TT001D. Both holes intersected the equivalent gabbroic mafic system with sulphides, with a best intersection of 1.2m @ 0.2% Ni and 798ppm Cu from 547m (TT004D).

Later drilling by Falcon Minerals further tested the Tea Tree Prospect with drill hole SMD02, located 500m north of TT001D. The drill hole was designed to test the magnetic anomalism rather than the initial gravity feature tested by MIM and intersected the equivalent magmatic sequence with a best intersection of 2m @ 0.23% Ni and 0.15% Cu from 516m (Table 1).

All historical holes at the Tea Tree Prospect have intersected some form of nickel and copper mineralisation.
