RED FOX RETURNS SIGNIFICANT BUTCHERS BORE GOLD RESULTS

Chase Mining Corporation Limited (ASX: CML, "Chase Mining" or "Company") provides the following update on Red Fox Resources Pty Limited ("Red Fox"), in which Chase Mining holds 40%.

  • Gold values up to 17g/t Au in rock chip samples, numerous results over 1g/t Au
  • Gold associated with anomalous cobalt, bismuth, molybdenum and tungsten
  • Rock chips show mineralised system at least 3km long
  • Soil anomaly further refined over 1km strike with values up to 1.05g/t Au in soils

Red Fox today announced that it has received some significant gold results from a sampling and mapping program at the GW Gossan prospect, completed March 2022 at Butchers Bore EPM 26397. Red Fox has been concentrating its work in this EPM on the GW Gossan prospect since returning good sampling results from activities in late 2021 in the area. The EPM is located in the Cloncurry district of northwest Queensland.

Attached is a copy of the Red Fox announcement, which can also be found on their website together with further information on the company at http://www.redfoxresources.net.au/

Red Fox returns significant gold results at GW Gossan - Butchers Bore EPM 26397

  • Gold values up to 17g/t Au in rock chip samples, numerous results over 1g/t Au
  • Gold associated with anomalous cobalt, bismuth, molybdenum and tungsten
  • Rock chips show mineralised system at least 3km long
  • Soil anomaly further refined over 1km strike with values up to 1.05g/t Au in soils

Red Fox is pleased to announce that it has received some significant gold results from a sampling and mapping program at the GW Gossan prospect, completed March 2022 at Butchers Bore EPM 26397. Red Fox has been concentrating its work in this EPM on the GW Gossan prospect since returning good sampling results from activities in late 2021 in the area. The EPM is located in the Cloncurry district of northwest Queensland.

Highlights of the program:

  • Gold values up to 17g/t Au in rock chip samples, numerous results over 1g/t Au
  • Gold associated with anomalous cobalt, bismuth, molybdenum and tungsten
  • Rock chip sampling has shown that the mineralised vein system has now been extended to the southeast and west over a strike of 3km
  • Anomalous rock chips at the eastern end (possibly still open further east) returned 17.1g/t Au and 10.5g/t Au which included high cobalt values to 370ppm Co, bismuth to 83ppm Bi and tungsten to 500ppm W
  • Anomalous rock chips south of the Duck Creek Fault returned 10.25g/t Au and 7.27g/t Au associated with high cobalt to 1090ppm Co, bismuth to 267ppm Bi, molybdenum to 51ppm Mo and tungsten to 930ppm W
  • Rock chips from the GW structure - main vein 3.86g/t Au and 1.43g/t Au (reported previously) with high cobalt to 973ppm Co
  • West end 6.0g/t Au with high cobalt to 120ppm Co, tungsten to 800ppm W
  • Soil anomaly further refined with values up to 1.05g/t Au in soils
  • Soil anomalies define a complex folded and faulted zone with an apparent strike length of 1km anomalies associated with zone of mafic volcanics/intrusives

The recent work program consisted of infill soil sampling, extension soil sampling, geological mapping and rock chip sampling.

125 soil samples were taken from sample sites, with one sample at -80# (180um) for gold and multi- element analysis taken (see Figure 3 and 4). The previous soil survey had combined the use of BCL soils and -80# soils however results were found to be comparable and the -80# soils have a much quicker turnaround, so the BCL technique was discontinued.

29 additional rock chip samples were also collected, mainly selected on veining and alteration characteristics and covered a much larger area than the soil lines (see Table 1 of anomalous results).

EXPLORATION · INNOVATION · DISCOVERY

Mapping and sampling has extended the east-west striking structural zone (named the GW structure) to the east and west and also defined a probable flexure centred around the Duck Creek Fault. The structure is characterised by variable quartz, ± calcite, ± haematite veining, brecciation and alteration with high gold values and moderate copper values. The zone is poorly outcropping but appears to be from 1 to 3m wide.

This zone is sub-parallel to the strike of the lithologies and occurs in an area which is strongly affected by faulting and dolerite intrusion. Lithologies present are feldspathic and fine grained quartzose sandstones and quartzites of the Mitakoodi Formation (Plnq), fine grained psammitic and pelitic phyllites and calcareous sandstones of the Timberoo Member (Plnt) and possible metabasalts of the Cone Creek Metabasalt (Plnc). The Timberoo Member and Cone Creek Metabasalt units are preferentially intruded by later dolerites.

Veining along the GW Structure consists of quartz, calcite and haematite veins, gossanous in part (see Plate2) with variable goethite. Quartz is made up of transparent silica veins, buck quartz veins, large areas of open space veining (see Plate 1 and 3) and massive carbonate (calcite) veins in the central part of the prospect. The veins show evidence of multiple events of quartz veining (see Plates 1 and 3), fracture and brecciation (Plate 1) and reactivation along the structures (see Plate 3).

The veins are sub-parallel to the dominant foliation (D2) being east-west and east-north-east trends across the zone west of the Duck Creek Fault. To the east of the Duck Creek Fault the veins trend south-east, changing back to east-south-east further to the east, away from the fault. This represents a flexure or fold in the lithologies and veining about the fault with an increased frequency of veining close to the fault.

Better gold values appear associated with elevated iron oxide and manganese oxides and haematite silica goethite alteration. Milky quartz and buck quartz varieties including some quartz-haematite and quartz calcite biotite chlorite veins can be un-mineralised and are probably earlier events.

Importantly, the current program has identified a metal association of gold with anomalous cobalt and tungsten and in parts anomalous copper, bismuth, molybdenum and arsenic (see Table 1). Although no granitic intrusives are known in the vicinity this metal association is typical of intrusion related gold (IRG) systems.

Soil Sampling Results

Results of the soil sampling program are presented in Figures 3 (gold) and 4 (copper). The 2022 program has not changed the pattern of gold distribution significantly from the previous report however significant addition of detail has occurred including much higher values returned for the central part of the GW Structure immediately adjacent to the mapped vein (0.79g/t Au and 1.05g/t Au). In addition, a broader distribution of anomalous results has been defined, south of the Duck Creek Fault with indications that this zone strikes to the southeast following the veins.
