- Drilling continues as part of the regional program testing new targets across the portfolio inclusive of Darter, Honeyeater, Teal East, Windanya, Olympia, Menzies, Goongarrie and Scotia with further results expected in the September Quarter 2019 (see Note 4 below)

Commenting on the latest results, Intermin Managing Director Mr Jon Price said:

"The Binduli area is certainly shaping up as a genuine contributor to our mine development and production pipeline as part of the consolidated Feasibility Study work currently underway. The drilling has improved geological confidence and demonstrated excellent width and grade continuity and we look forward to receiving further results as drilling continues."

Overview

In 2018, Intermin commenced drilling at the historic Crake prospect where previous work had located encouraging gold mineralisation within a porphyry host rock. The drilling totalled 85 RC holes for 8,096m, and produced an initial Mineral Resource estimate of 1.12Mt @ 1.59 g/t Au for 57,700oz at a 1g/t lower grade cut-off(see Note 3 below). An independent first pass mine optimisation of the resource showed positive results and highlighted areas where further drilling could improve geological confidence and extend the mineralisation.

In May Intermin commenced a 25-hole (2,550m) RC program designed to infill and build on the resource base and test selected areas for deeper ore at Crake (see Figure 2 in link below). 4m composite assays are still pending from 10 holes with final results expected in the September Quarter 2019.

Project Geology

The geology at Crake is similar to the 390,000oz Janet Ivy open pit, located approximately 1,500m to the south, where the gold is hosted in a structurally controlled feldspar porphyry. At the nearby Fort William and Fort Scott open pits, where over 100,000oz have been produced to date, gold is hosted within sheared units of volcanics and clastic sediments.

At Crake, the gold mineralisation strikes NW and dips shallowly to the SW. A poorly developed southern plunge is tentatively interpreted. The gold lodes are often tabular shaped and 20m thick but can blow out to >60m width. High grade shoots appear to results from intersecting structures. The Crake drilling focussed on a mineralised, variably altered pink porphyry with minor amounts of pyrite and magnetite. Higher grades usually coincide with stronger pyrite mineralisation (up to 3% by volume).

Summary of Results(see Note 5 below)

The preliminary Crake results appear to have good agreement with the current block model. Also consistent with the 2018 RC program are the lenses of high grade ore interspersed throughout the ROM grade mineralisation (1-2 g/t Au) as confirmed by the recent intercepts such as 4m @ 11.3 g/t Au (BRC19021) and 8m @ 5.78 g/t Au (BRC19025) (see Figure 2 in link below).

Diamond drilling has been planned to help determine the structure of these high grade shoots.

Composite RC samples were submitted to Independent Metallurgical Operations for initial metallurgical testwork such as gravity concentration and leaching response. The Crake resource block model will be updated with all new data and mine optimisation and design studies completed as part of the consolidated Feasibility Study due for completion in the March Quarter 2020. Given the close proximity of Binduli to the large Boorara project, the Binduli project area has demonstrated the potential to provide additional high grade ore feed to a centralised processing plant.

At the historic Coote prospect, the Company drilled 9 holes for 1,045m to test previous drilling and also some exploration step out drilling (see Figure 3 in link below). The geology is similar to Crake and Janet Ivy with a mineralised pink porphyry hosting the gold. The results are considered encouraging with several holes recording narrow shoots of ROM grade mineralisation within a broad zones of lower grade gold (0.5-1.0 g/t Au). A follow up RC program is planned.

Next Steps(see Note 4 below)

Further exploration and resource drilling has been planned at both Coote and Crake. Recent observations from historic holes and mapping suggest the "prospective pink porphyry" is much larger than areas indicated by our drilling. Historic holes, where the pink porphyry has been sited, appear to have been too short to capture any significant bedrock mineralisation. Diamond drilling has also been planned to help understand the nature of the high grade shoots and stacked mineralisation at Crake and Coote and supply physical data for use towards the Feasibility study. This study will assess optimal mining and processing pathways for open cut mine development.

The Company has also commenced work on converting part of the current exploration licence (E26/168) to a Mining Lease.

Further results from the Binduli project area are expected in the September Quarter together with first pass metallurgical test work results.
