Roe Gold Project.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Christopher McFadden, Chief Executive Officer commented, \u201cOur phased approach to evaluating the Mt Roe properties continues to support gold being shed from the Mt. Sholl ridge. The stream silt samples are defining key portions of the ridge with the potential to host gold mineralisation. The identification of vein structures in the \u2018Specimen Area&#8217;, Dryblower area, and 80oz area among others, supports the existence of primary gold mineralisation on the property. With the addition of the UAV geophysical survey we continue our methodical approach towards a discovery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Highlights from the preliminary mapping and Phase I trenching program are listed in the table below, descriptions of each area follow with a full results table appended.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Area<\/td>\n<td>SampleID<\/td>\n<td nowrap>Au g\/t<\/td>\n<td nowrap>Ag g\/t<\/td>\n<td nowrap>Cu %<\/td>\n<td>note<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Specimen<\/td>\n<td>18SH024<\/td>\n<td>102.2<\/td>\n<td>12.7<\/td>\n<td>\u2013<\/td>\n<td>Selective sample of structure; visible gold<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Specimen<\/td>\n<td>18NX004<\/td>\n<td>0.992<\/td>\n<td>\u2013<\/td>\n<td>\u2013<\/td>\n<td>1m horizontal chip across inferred structure approximately 10m from 18SH024<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dryblower<\/td>\n<td>18SH001<\/td>\n<td>0.215<\/td>\n<td>\u2013<\/td>\n<td>\u2013<\/td>\n<td>Selective sample of 5cm wide vein in shear in Dryblower gully; all samples in this area are above background<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dryblower<\/td>\n<td>18SH010<\/td>\n<td>0.394<\/td>\n<td>15.2<\/td>\n<td>1.54<\/td>\n<td>&lt;0.1m wide, +13m long vein in shear zone<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Conglomerate<\/td>\n<td>18SH012<\/td>\n<td>0.017<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>~1.5m chip across thickness of upper pebble conglomerate-quartzite bed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Highlights of the assay results from the stream sediment sampling program.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Area<\/td>\n<td>SampleID<\/td>\n<td>Visible grains<\/td>\n<td># gold grains<\/td>\n<td>Au (ppb)<\/td>\n<td>note<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>80oz area<\/td>\n<td>2135<\/td>\n<td>N<\/td>\n<td>0<\/td>\n<td>470<\/td>\n<td>In area of known nugget collection<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>North<\/td>\n<td>2144<\/td>\n<td>N<\/td>\n<td>0<\/td>\n<td>427<\/td>\n<td>New area<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>80oz area<\/td>\n<td>2139<\/td>\n<td>Y<\/td>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>411<\/td>\n<td>In area of known nugget collection<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dryblower<\/td>\n<td>2104<\/td>\n<td>Y<\/td>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>240<\/td>\n<td>In area of known nugget collection<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ridge<\/td>\n<td>2115<\/td>\n<td>Y<\/td>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>156<\/td>\n<td>In area of epithermal veining<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Breccia Dyke<\/td>\n<td>2122<\/td>\n<td>Y<\/td>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>154<\/td>\n<td>In area of known nugget collection<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The preliminary mapping program resulted in the collection of twenty-eight property wide distributed samples consisting of eleven quartz vein samples, five breccia samples and twelve lithological type samples with minor veining or mineralisation.
