Another deep hole (KJD627D2) completed 36 meters below and to the south-east of the current deepest
hole at Rockface (KJCD575W1) intersected mineralisation. Assays are pending.
KGL Resources (ASX:KGL) is pleased to announce the intersection of a high-grade massive sulphide zone at
Rockface North Lodes. Drill hole KJD627D1 intersected a massive sulphide brecciated vein at the down deep
margin of Rockface North Lodes, containing high-grade copper and gold together with significant grades of zinc,
lead and silver.
Holes KJD227D1 and KJD227D2 also intersected high grade copper as part of the infill drilling program
completed at Rockface to increase the geological confidence of minerals resources categories for a future
resource update.
Rockface North Lode
Drill hole KJD627D1 was targeted at the midpoint between previous intersections (KJCD556 & KJCD556D4) to
confirm the lateral continuity of high-grade copper mineralisation below the bottom margin of the Rockface north
resource model (Figure 2).
ASX announcement dated 27/09/2022 previously reported robust copper results in Rockface drillhole KJCD556
with a 12.38m zone of massive, semi-massive and stringer sulphides comprised mainly of chalcopyrite (copperiron-sulphide) and pyrite (iron-sulphide):
• 12.38m @ 2.60% Cu, 23.8 g/t Ag, 0.34 g/t Au from 978.26m
8.74m @ 3.20% Cu, 29.7 g/t Ag, 0.42 g/t Au from 978.26m including
5.75m @ 3.86% Cu, 34.4 g/t Ag, 0.51 g/t Au from 978.26m including
4.70m @ 4.26% Cu, 35.3 g/t Ag, 0.59 g/t Au from 979.41m

High-grade copper-silver-gold-zinc-lead massive sulphide intersection
at Rockface Deeps
High-grade copper-silver-zinc-lead massive sulphides were also previously announced (ASX Announcement
dated 08/11/2023) in deep Rockface drillhole KJCD556D4:
• 4.1 m @ 3.59% Cu, 199.9 g/t Ag, 0.65 g/t Au, 20.49% Zn, 4.32% Pb from 990.0 m
Drill hole KJD627D1 intersected a massive sulphide-magnetite brecciated vein, containing significant
chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena (Figure 3, Figure 5). The intersection is located to the north of the current
resource model.
The massive shoot exhibits a sharp contact with barren Pelite in the hanging wall (HW). In contrast, the footwall
(FW) contains another quartz-magnetite vein, which is less mineralised. The low-grade mineralisation (Cu <1%)
continued for tens of meters in the footwall. Another thin zone of high-grade copper was intersected
corresponding to Rockface Main Lode strike. The best assay results were:
•
5.08 m @ 6.74% Cu, 330.63 g/t Ag, 5.36 g/t Au, 18.41% Zn, 8.42% Pb From 1013.05 m (HW) including
3.66m @ 8.72% Cu, 454.72 g/t Ag, 0.83 g/t Au, 25.06% Zn, 11.60% Pb
•
0.66 m @1.59% Cu, 11.90 g/t Ag, 0.09 g/t Au From 1020.37m (HW)
•
0.80 m @ 1.21% Cu, 6.50 g/t Ag, 0.08 g/t Au From1028.00 m (FW) and
•
0.80 m @ 1.02% Cu, 5.30 g/t Ag, 0.16 g/t Au From 1033.00 m
•
1.28 m @ 2.67% Cu, 13.04 g/t Ag, 0.40 g/t Au From 1043.53 m (Rockface Main Lode strike).
Massive sulphide zones have previously been identified at Jervois as higher-grade domains in which the primary
copper mineralisation has been remobilised by later structural reworking. The new intersection (KJD627D1),
together with KJCD556D4, opens the potential for a new high-grade domain at the bottom of current resource,
subject to further infill drilling, with the possibility of increasing tonnages and mine life.
Drill holes KJD227D1 and 227D2 were targeted primarily at gaps in Rockface North Lodes to increase confidence
in the minerals resource model (Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 4).
Hole KJD227D1 was targeted at the center of North Lodes and extended further through to Main Lodes (Figure
2, Figure 4). The extension along the Rockface Main Lode strike intersected background grade mineralisation
only. However, a thick zone of high-grade copper mineralisation was intersected at North Lode hanging wall and
two thin zones of mineralisation intersected corresponding to north lodes footwall, separated by low grade
(<1% Cu). Best results from the hole were:
•
4.16 m @ 2.17% Cu, 23.08 g/t Ag, 0.19 g/t Au From 711.82 m (HW).
•
0.92 m @ 1.02 % Cu, 8.40 g/t Ag, 0.12g/t Au From 718.40 m (HW) and
•
1.85 m @ 1.11% Cu, 6.95 g/t Ag, 0.14g/t Au From 722.00 m (FW)
Hole KJD227D2 was targeted at a gap 34 meters below the hole 227D1 in the center of North Lodes (Figure 2,
Figure 4), intersecting a thick zone of sulphide brecciated vein yielding strong copper mineralisation in line with
the footwall. Two thin but high-grade zones of mineralisation intersected above and below the main sulphide
breccia vein. The assay results from the three intersections were:
•
0.78 m @ 2.01% Cu, 27.30 g/t Ag, 0.07g/t Au From 735.21 m (FW) and
•
4.14m @ 6.14 % Cu, 48.26 g/t Ag, 0.48g/t Au from 737.30 m (FW) including
2.65 m @ 8.68 % Cu, 65.23 g/t Ag, 0.65 g/t Au and
•
0.73 m @ 1.27% Cu, 4.60 g/t Ag, 0.12 g/t Au From 745.47 m (FW)
The style of mineralisation in the holes reported are consistent with Rockface type sulphide-magnetite brecciated
shoots and chalcopyrite being the main copper mineral.
High-grade copper-silver-gold-zinc-lead massive sulphide intersection
at Rockface Deeps
Newly appointed Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Philip Condon, commented:
“The continuation of outstanding high-grade copper drilling results at Rockface Deeps demonstrates the
exciting exploration potential at this high-grade deposit, which remains open at depth.
Also at the southern end of the Jervois mineralized field, gravity and magnetic data has identified a large
geophysical anomaly which may be the source of the high-grade mineralising fluids at Rockface. In the
second half of 2024, we intend to finalise the inversion study and develop targets to test this large
geophysical anomaly. A drill program to test the targets is subject to the development of the targets and
funding.”
Next Steps
Rockface has not been closed off at depth by drilling and DHEM geophysics carried out on the previously deepest
holes (KJCD575W1) indicates that conductive mineralisation continues substantially below the level of current
drilling. KJCD575W1 also intersected strong copper with gold credits:
•
5.0m @ 2.43% Cu, 18.1 g/t Ag, 0.55 g/t Au from 1,132.5m including
2.1m @ 3.53% Cu, 21.5 g/t Ag, 1.01 g/t Au from 1,134.54m
The newly drilled deepest hole (KJD627D2) was completed 40 meters below KJCD575W1 to validate the DHEM
conductor model and extend the resource further down-dip. Assay results for hole KJD627D2 are pending and
will be reported when they are received.

Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random
chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement
tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as
down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments,
etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample
representivity and the appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are
Material to the Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this
would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling
was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was
pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other
cases more explanation may be required, such as where
there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems.
Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (e.g. submarine
nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information.

•
At Reward diamond drilling and reverse
circulation (RC) drilling were used to obtain
samples for geological logging and
assaying. The core samples comprised a
mixture of sawn HQ quarter core, sawn NQ
half core and possibly BQ half core
(historical drilling only). Sample lengths are
generally 1m, but at times length were
adjusted to take into account geological
variations. RC sample intervals are
predominantly 1m intervals with some 2
and 4m compositing (historical holes only)..
All 3 holes reported in this
announcement are NQ and sample half
core.
Mineralisation at all deposits is
characterized by disseminations, veinlets
and large masses of chalcopyrite,
associated with magnetite-rich alteration
within a psammite. The mineralisation has
textures indicative of structural
emplacement within specific strata i.e. the
mineral appears stratabound.
Mineralisation in the reported intersections
are semi-massive to massive sulphide
brecciated veins/shoots.

No evidence has been found for any
relationship between sample recovery and
copper grade and there are no biases in
the sampling with respect to copper grade
and recovery.
The KGL RC samples were not weighed
on a regular basis but when completed no
sample recovery issues were encountered
during the drilling program.
Jinka Minerals and KGL split the rare
overweight samples (>3kg) for assay.
Since overweight samples were rarely
reported no sample bias was established
between sample recovery and grade.
All KGL RC and diamond core samples
are geologically logged. Logging in
conjunction with multi-element assays is
appropriate for mineral resource
estimation.
Core samples are also orientated and
logged for geotechnical information.
All logging has been converted to
quantitative and qualitative codes in the
KGL Access database.
All relevant intersections were logged.
Paper logs existed for the historical drilling.
There is very little historical core available
for inspection.
The following describes the recent KGL
sampling and assaying process:
–
RC drill holes are sampled at 1m
intervals and split using a cone
splitter attached to the cyclone to
generate a split of ~3kg;
–
RC sample splits (~3kg) are
pulverized to 85% passing 75
microns.
–
Diamond core was quartered with a
diamond saw and generally sampled
at 1m intervals with samples lengths
adjusted at geological contacts;
–
Diamond core samples are crushed
to 70% passing 2mm and then
pulverized to 85% passing 75
microns.
–
Two quarter core field duplicates
were taken for every 20m samples
by Jinka Minerals and KGL
Resources.
–
All sampling methods and sample
sizes are deemed appropriate for
mineral resource estimation
Details for the historical sampling are not
available.
The KGL drilling has QAQC data that
includes standards, duplicates and
laboratory checks. In ore zones standards
are added at a ratio of 1:10 and duplicates
and blanks 1:20.

Hole twinning was occasionally conducted
at Reward with mixed results. This may be
due to inaccuracies with historic hole
locations rather than mineral continuity
issues.
For the resource estimation below
detection values were converted to half the
lower detection limit.
For the KGL drilling surface collar surveys

collars. There are virtually no preserved
historic collars for checking.
There is no documentation for the
downhole survey method for the historic
drilling.
Topography was mapped using Trimble
DGPS and LIDAR
Drilling at Rockface was on nominal 50m
centres with downhole sampling on 1m
intervals.
Drilling at Reward was on 25m spaced
sections in the upper part of the
mineralisation extending to 50m centres
with depth and ultimately reaching 100m
spacing on the periphery of mineralisation.
For Reward shallow oxide RC drilling was
conducted on 80m spaced traverses with
holes 10m apart.
The drill spacing for all areas is appropriate
for resource estimation and the relevant
classifications applied.

Commentary
•
A small amount of sample compositing has
been applied to some of the near surface
historic drilling.
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased
sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is
known, considering the deposit type.
If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the
orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to
have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed
and reported if material.
•
Holes were drilled perpendicular to the
strike of the mineralization; the default
angle is -60 degrees, but holes vary from 45 to -80.
Drilling orientations are considered
appropriate and no obvious sampling bias
was detected.

Sample security
•
The measures taken to ensure sample security.
•
Samples were stored in sealed polyweave
bags on site and transported to the
laboratory at regular intervals by KGL staff
or a transport contractor.
Audits or reviews
•
The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques
and data.
•
The sampling techniques are regularly
reviewed internally and by external
consultants.

Criteria
Mineral tenement
and land tenure
status
JORC Code explanation
• Type, reference name/number, location and ownership
including agreements or material issues with third parties
such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties,
native title interests, historical sites, wilderness or national
park and environmental settings.
• The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along
with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate
in the area.
Exploration done
by other parties
•
Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other
parties.
Geology
•
Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.
Commentary
• The Jervois Project is within EL25429 and
EL28082 100% owned by Jinka Minerals
and operated by Kentor Minerals (NT),
both wholly owned subsidiaries of KGL
Resources.
• The Jervois Project is covered by Mineral
Claims and an Exploration licence owned
by KGL Resources subsidiary Jinka
Minerals.
• Previous exploration has primarily been
conducted by Reward Minerals, MIM and
Plenty River.
• EL25429 and EL28082 lie on the Huckitta
1: 250 000 map sheet (SF 53-11). The
tenement is located mainly within the
Palaeo-Proterozoic Bonya Schist on the
northeastern boundary of the Arunta
Orogenic Domain. The Arunta Orogenic
Domain in the north western part of the
tenement is overlain unconformably by
Neo-Proterozoic sediments of the
Georgina Basin.
• The stratabound mineralisation for the
project consists of a series of complex,
narrow, structurally controlled, sub-vertical
sulphide/magnetite-rich deposits hosted by
Proterozoic-aged, amphibolite grade
metamorphosed sediments of the Arunta
Inlier.
• Mineralisation is characterised by veinlets
and disseminations of chalcopyrite in
association with magnetite. In the oxide
zone which is vertically limited malachite,
azurite, chalcocite are the main Cuminerals.

A summary of all information material to the understanding of
the exploration results including a tabulation of the following
information for all Material drill holes:
o easting and northing of the drill hole collar
o elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea
level in metres) of the drill hole collar
o dip and azimuth of the hole
o down hole length and interception depth
o hole length.
If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that
the information is not Material and this exclusion does not
detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent
Person should clearly explain why this is the case.
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging
techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg
cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material
and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high
grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the
procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and
some typical examples of such aggregations should be
shown in detail.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent
values should be clearly stated.
These relationships are particularly important in the reporting
of Exploration Results.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill
hole angle is known, its nature should be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported,
there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole
length, true width not known’).
Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations
of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery
being reported These should include, but not be limited to a
plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate
sectional views.

not practicable, represent
