LCR · Price

Executive Summary

  • Lancaster Resources Inc. has completed and filed its maiden National Instrument 43-101 technical report for its 100%-owned Lake Cargelligo gold project in New South Wales, Australia.
  • The report, prepared by independent consultant Geos Mining, outlines significant historical geochemical results and identifies four priority target areas for an upcoming Phase I exploration program.
  • The release highlights a strategic timing element, noting the completion coincides with gold prices reaching an all-time high of $4,300 USD per ounce.

Key Details

  • Report Status: Maiden NI 43-101 technical report completed and filed; prepared by Sydney-based Geos Mining.
  • Licence Status: Transfer of licence from Mac Minerals Pty. to Lancaster's wholly owned subsidiary, Lancaster Gold Australia Pty. Ltd., has been initiated and is expected to be completed shortly.
  • Historical Geochemical Results:
    • Compilation of drilling and historical sampling with channel intercepts up to 16 metres at 5.83 grams per tonne Au (gold) and 7.20 g/t Ag (silver).
    • Rock sampling results up to Au 204 g/t and Ag 273 g/t.
    • Data derived from a total of 4,176 geochemical samples.
    • Note: These historical results have not been verified by a qualified person.
  • Mineralization Opportunities Identified:
    • Large-scale shear-hosted gold mineralization associated with enriched silver, copper, lead, and zinc.
    • Intrusive-related gold systems associated with contact zones between Silurian Ungarie granite and altered Ordovician Abercrombie formation turbidite sediments.
    • Orogenic-style gold hosted by quartz veins and stockworks within structural zones such as anticlinal fold hinges.
    • Intrusion-related tin/tungsten deposits as veins, disseminations, and greisen zones in the carapace of granitic intrusions.
  • Future Exploration Plan (Phase I):
    • Four priority target areas outlined: Josephine Moulder, Josephine Moulder East, Avoca, and Mount Wilga.
    • Recommended work programs include geophysics (IP and airborne magnetics), geochemistry, and an initial Reverse Circulation (RC) and diamond drill program.
  • Project Assets: Lancaster holds a 100% interest in the Lake Cargelligo project covering approximately 62,300 hectares.

Notable Quotes
