St George Mining Limited announced that a SAMSON EM survey is scheduled to commence this week at the Mt Alexander Project, as part of a new round of exploration activities and drilling scheduled for the Project over the coming months. The high-powered SAMSON EM survey will cover an area comprising a 3km strike length of the Cathedrals Belt and an additional 1km strike across the Ida Fault. This area extends westwards from the Investigators. Prospect ­ where 14 drill holes have already intersected high grade nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE mineralisation - up to the western boundary of the Project tenements. The survey area includes the intersection of the Cathedrals Belt and the Ida Fault which may be an important regional geological control on the mineralised ultramafics within the Project tenements. A number of magnetic anomalies have been identified in the survey area from the high resolution magnetic data generated by the airborne magnetic survey completed by St George in 2016. These magnetic anomalies have never been drilled and are priority exploration targets. Similar magnetic anomalies along strike at the Investigators, Stricklands and Cathedrals Prospects have been confirmed by drilling to represent mineralised ultramafics hosting high grade nickel-copper-cobalt- PGE massive sulphides. The general trend of the mineralised ultramafics in the Cathedrals Belt is one of increasing depth towards the west. The SAMSON EM survey is designed to search for conductive targets up to 500m below surface using a high-powered transmitter and sensitive receiver that has the capability to deliver greater EM depth penetration than that achieved by conventional EM systems. The survey will use fixed transmitter loops of 1000m x 1000m with 100m line spacing and 50m or 100m station spacing. Prominent magnetic anomalies are clearly defined within the survey area, and may represent mineralised ultramafics similar to those drilled elsewhere in the Cathedrals Belt. Any EM targets identified by the SAMSON survey will be added to the upcoming drill programme. Diamond drill programme: The next drill programme at the Cathedrals Belt - scheduled to commence in October 2017 - will include testing of several new EM conductors as well as further extensional drilling of known mineralisation. Some of the drill ready targets are outlined below. In addition, this drill programme will include some deep stratigraphic drill holes to investigate areas far beyond the depths drilled at the Cathedrals Belt to date. The design of these drill holes will be finalised following a review of the data from the SAMSON EM survey. Anomaly 11: One of the new EM conductors to be drilled is Anomaly 11 which was detected by the recent MLEM survey over the east-northeast structural corridor 1km to the south of the Cathedrals Belt. The conductor is co-incident with a magnetic anomaly that may represent ultramafic rocks. The EM plate for Anomaly 11 is modelled with conductivity of 4,700 Siemens and dimensions of 113m x 91m. It is located at a depth of 98m below surface. Investigators: Next month's drill programme will also include drilling of several untested EM conductors at the Investigators Prospect. One of these EM targets is on the same drill section and potentially up dip from MAD60 which intersected 5.3m @ 4.95%Ni, 2.75%Cu, 0.16%Co and 4.55g/t total PGEs from 157.9m including 3m @ 6.40%Ni, 3.55%Cu, 0.21%Co and 5.25g/t total PGEs from 159.38m. Stricklands: Drilling at Stricklands earlier this year identified a significant zone of channelised magma flow, which is the key control on nickel sulphide deposits. MAD49 intersected a thick ultramafic unit from 14.5m to 54.2m. The ultramafic was weathered from 14.5m to 31.8m. The remainder of the unit was in fresh rock, and hosts disseminated, matrix and massive nickel- copper sulphides with assays confirming 18.86m @ 0.42%Ni, 0.16%Cu, 0.02%Co and 0.36g/t total PGEs from 31.8m and 3.36m @ 2.09%Ni, 1.18%Cu, 0.09%Co and 1.82g/t total PGEs from 50.66m. The upcoming drill programme will test the potential northern extent of this mineralised ultramafic to identify any continuity and potential for further mineralisation. Cathedrals: Extensive high grade nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE mineralisation has been intersected at the Cathedrals Prospect, commencing from a shallow depth of 30m from surface as well as at depth in the footwall fault. Drilling planned for next month will test extensions to the known mineralisation at the Cathedrals Prospect. This will include the testing of a new off-hole DHEM plate modelled from MAD58 which intersected mineralisation in the footwall fault, and which may represent further mineralisation on this surface.
