Miramar Resources Limited<\/strong> (ASX:M2R, \u201cMiramar\u201d or \u201cthe Company\u201d) is pleased to advise that ground electromagnetic (EM) surveys have identified multiple drill targets at the Company\u2019s large 100%-owned Mount Vernon and Trouble Bore Projects in the Gascoyne region of Western Australia. <\/p>\n

Miramar\u2019s Executive Chairman, Mr Allan Kelly, said the Company was excited about the district-scale opportunity evolving within the Bangemall Projects and looked forward to the maiden drilling campaign.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhilst many nickel producers are under pressure at the moment, mafic intrusion-hosted deposits such as Nova and Nebo Babel can be large and very valuable, due to the mix of metals present, which makes them immune to short-term fluctuations in the nickel price,\u201d <\/em>he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt Mount Vernon and Trouble Bore, we are seeing all the ingredients needed for the formation of this type of deposit,\u201d <\/em>he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have nickel and copper-bearing dolerite sills intruding into sulphidic sediments, evidence of differentiation, including mafic cumulate rocks, and indications of accumulations of conductive sulphides within and\/or beneath the sills,\u201d<\/em> he added.<\/p>\n

Miramar is exploring for mafic intrusion-hosted nickel, copper, cobalt and platinum group element (Ni-Cu- Co-PGE) sulphide mineralisation related to 1070Ma aged Kulkatharra Dolerite sills, part of the Warakurna Large Igneous Province and the same age as the large Nebo-Babel deposits in the West Musgraves.<\/p>\n

Geophysical contractor Wirelines Services Group has finished a ground EM survey comprising a mixture of Fixed Loop (FLTEM) and Moving Loop (MLEM) methods which tested five airborne EM anomalies within the Mount Vernon and Trouble Bore Projects (Figure 1).<\/p>\n

The survey has confirmed and refined each of the airborne EM anomalies and outlined large shallow conductive drill targets consistent with Miramar\u2019s Norilsk-style Ni-Cu-Co-PGE deposit model (Figure 2).<\/p>\n

Target D is the last target to be tested within the Mount Vernon Project as part of the current programme.<\/p>\n

The FLTEM survey at Target D covered part of a large airborne EM anomaly at the western end of the Project (Figure 3). The FLTEM survey refined the location of the southern VTEM anomaly, which remains open to the east.<\/p>\n

When modelled, the FLTEM data indicates the presence of two large shallow, sub-horizontal plates with strong conductances, up to approximately 1600 Siemens (Figure 4).<\/p>\n

Upcoming work programme<\/strong><\/p>\n

Miramar\u2019s initial aim is to show \u201cproof of concept\u201d of the Norilsk-style deposit model by discovering Ni-Cu- Co-PGE sulphide mineralisation.<\/p>\n

Over the previous 24 months, the Company has progressed from regional-scale area selection to collection of project-scale datasets and, more recently, to delineation of individual drill targets.<\/p>\n

Upcoming work includes systematic rock chip sampling and preparation for the maiden drilling campaign. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
