• The Cassia gossan contains up to 1.34g/t gold, 23g/t silver, 5.77% lead and 0.21% zinc.

• It was discovered through systematic lag sampling and has been subject to only limited reconnaissance RC drilling. Best results to date were returned from hole WARC043; 2 metres at 5.24% zinc, 96g/t silver, 1.42% lead, 0.70g/t gold and 0.06% copper from 207m.

• Mineralisation at Cassia is again hosted by a pyritic felsic volcanic horizon and remains open along strike and down-dip. Future drilling will target these potential extensions with the aim of locating wider zones of this mineralisation.
