Adelaide Resources Limited: SA Mining and Exploration Conference Presentation
01.12.2016 | ABN Newswire
Adelaide - Adelaide Resources Ltd. (ASX:ADN) is pleased to provide the company's SA Mining and Exploration Conference Presentation.Eyre Peninsula gold
Large project in Central Gawler Gold Province
- Substantial 2,807km2 project
- Barns Camp gold deposits (Barns, Baggy Green, White Tank) all 100% owned
- Deposits found in early 2000's by testing calcrete gold geochemical anomalies
Barns - assessment done May 2016
- Deposit model assessed by Independent resources industry experts Mining Plus Pty Ltd and Maptek Pty Ltd who then respectively analysed and reviewed the results of the modelling and of each other's work.
- The results of these investigations were positive and provided confidence to advance the project.
- Assessment recommendations
1. Estimate a JORC Mineral Resource
2. Metallurgical assessment
3. Find more shallow ounces at Barns or nearby
Baggy Green prospect history
Located <6km from Barns
- Originally indicated as 3km long gold anomaly in regional calcrete geochemical survey
- Aircore drilling defined coherent zones of gold mineralisation in saprolite
- Potentially economic grade and width intersections recorded in 2004 RC drill holes when project in JV with Newmont
Baggy Green - recent RC programme
Recent drilling programme completed
- Results include the two best intersections achieved to date at Baggy Green
- Down-dip and along strike continuity of mineralised zone confirmed
Barns/Baggy Green pros and cons
Pros
- Coherent zones of relatively shallow mineralisation
- Excellent opportunity to grow camp resource base and improve economics - Barns and Baggy Green remain open. Other satellite targets identified
- Gentle dips (particularly at Baggy Green) are good for minimising strip ratios and pit depths, and maximising ounces/vertical metre
- Upper shallow depleted zone is soft saprolite clay
- Indications that metallurgy will be positive
- Good location and supportive landowners
Cons
- Higher gold grades would be nice - lower grades limit pit depths
- Pre-strip required to remove depleted clay zones
- Grade variation in plane of mineralisation - (positive or negative?)
- Single ore source preferred to multiple sources (shallow ounces important)
- Requires construction of stand-alone treatment facility
Andromeda Metals
- Adelaide Resources has completed its 20th year listed on ASX
