New gold prospect outlined at Lyons River in Gascoyne

_____________________________________________________________________________

Highlights

  • New gold prospect (Goodbody) outlined

  • Systematic sampling on a 250m X 100m grid has identified:

    • o 1.5km long gold anomaly

    • o Peak value of 93ppb Au

  • Results from a review of base metal geochemistry from previous exploration at Goodbody include:

    • o Up to 6.25g/t Au in rock chips

  • Follow-up exploration to commence in the June Quarter.

Dalaroo Metals Ltd (ASX: DAL or "Company") has finalised a review of geochemical data from previous exploration undertaken at its Lyons River Project. The Company has identified the high-priority Goodbody gold prospect which has a strike length of 1.5km. Goodbody is located five kilometers to the west of its Four Corners BHT/SEDEX Pb-Zn base metal prospect.

The Goodbody gold prospect has been outlined from a review of soil geochemical sampling which was previously completed on a pattern of 250m X 50 to 100m over several campaigns by Serena Minerals Limited (period 2017 to 2021) with a peak value of 93ppb Au (Figure 1). Rock chip sampling of quartz veins by Audalia Resources Limited (ASX: ACP) during 2014 to 2015 1&2 returned anomalous gold values of 0.40 g/t and 0.32 g/t, with subsequent rock chip sample results of up to 6.25 g/t at Goodbody (Figure 1).

The results of soil geochemical, rock chip sampling and geological mapping campaigns have been combined with our 50m spaced high resolution aeromagnetic data. This compilation highlights a broad east-west structural corridor containing gold anomalism over a strike length of several kilometres with the potential to host gold deposits (Figure 2).

Next Steps

The Goodbody gold anomaly remains open to the west. On a number of the sampling lines, soil samples were assayed for base metals only and not for gold. Sample pulps of this phase of previously completed sampling have been delivered to the laboratory for gold analysis.

Further exploration comprising infill soil geochemical sampling at Goodbody will commence in the June Quarter. Aircore drilling of this compelling gold target is also proposed, once site relevant access approvals are in place.

"Gold prices continue to rise as a safe-haven as a result of geopolitical uncertainty and we are excited about conducting more lab testing on the existing samples as well as doing more follow-up field exploration," said Managing Director, Harjinder Kehal.

About the Lyons River Project

Lyons River is located approximately 1,100km north of Perth and approximately 220 km to the north-east of the coastal town of Carnarvon, Western Australia. The Lyons River Project lies within the Mutherbukin Zone of the Gascoyne Province, which is the deformed and high-grade metamorphic core zone of the early Proterozioc Capricorn Orogen (Figure 3).
