EPM 28673, known as "Sophia," is located 15km northeast of Charters Towers, covering 10,000 hectares. The tenement is positioned within a structurally complex gold-bearing region, historically known for mesothermal quartz-gold veins and breccia-hosted mineralisation.
 

Key Highlights
 

• High-Grade Gold:

  • Rock chip samples returned up to 8.5 g/t Au, with associated copper (1,000 ppm Cu) and lead (4.95% Pb).

  • Stream sediment surveys identified gold anomalies exceeding 10 ppb Au.
     

• Historical Drilling Results:

  • RC drilling in nearby areas recorded up to 16m @ 8.6 g/t Au and 28m @ 2.86 g/t Au.

  • Track Pit Prospect drill holes intercepted up to 3 g/t Au in quartz-carbonate veins.
     

• Untested Magnetic Anomalies:

  • Geophysical data shows two strong magnetic anomalies, possibly related to hidden intrusive-hosted gold deposits.
     

• Proximity to Historic Gold Mines:

  • Close to known gold deposits, Hadleigh Castle (~0.3 Moz Au) and Charters Towers (7.1 Moz Au).
     

EPM 28675, known as "George," is a high-priority magnetic anomaly exploration target in the Bowen Basin, covering 19,000 hectares. The tenement contains one of the largest untested magnetic anomalies in the region, indicating a potential deep-seated intrusive system with high mineralisation potential.
 

Key Highlights
 

• Large-Scale Magnetic Anomaly (3.5 km x 4.0 km):

  • A high-intensity magnetic feature that has been unexplained since its discovery in 1994.

  • The anomaly aligns with deep-seated gabbroic intrusions, commonly associated with nickel, copper, and platinum group elements (PGEs).

  • Magnetic lows surrounding the anomaly suggest hydrothermal alteration zones, reinforcing the likelihood of mineralization.
     

• Structural and Geological Favorability:

  • The anomaly is positioned along major fault zones, creating ideal conditions for fluid migration and ore deposition.

  • The contrast between high-magnetic and low-magnetic zones suggests a combination of intrusive and hydrothermal mineralization systems.
     

EPM 28737, known as "Bentley," is a high-potential gold exploration project covering 2,500 hectares in the Charters Towers district. The tenement is strategically located along the Alex Hill Shear Zone (AHSZ), a major gold-bearing structure associated with multi-million-ounce gold deposits.
 

Key Highlights
 

• Exceptional Gold Grades in Surface Samples:

  • Rock chips and stream float samples returned up to 17 g/t Au (The Range) and 12 g/t Au (Banana prospect).

  • Acacia prospect assays recorded up to 14.77 g/t Au in ferruginous quartz veins.
     

• Historical Drilling Results (Nearby Deposits):

  • Mt Wright (~1 Moz Au) is a deep intrusion-related breccia deposit, with gold hosted in brecciated quartz veins at depths of 300-500m.

  • The Charters Towers district has deep-seated gold mineralization extending to over 1,000m depth.
     

• Geophysical Anomalies Indicate Potential Deep Gold System:

  • Strong magnetic and radiometric anomalies align with high-grade surface samples.

  • Structures in Bentley EPM are similar to nearby multi-million-ounce deposits, supporting deep drilling exploration.
