SUMMARY
A program of air pboto interpretation, field mapping, rock chip and soil
sampling and one percussion drill hole was completed on EL 19/97 during licence
Year 1.
Two areas of outcropping Cabbage Tree Formation siliciclastic sedimentary
rocks were delineated and a coincident rock chip gold + arsenic / soil arsenic
anomaly was generated on Cabbage Tree Formation sandstone at Winkleigh.
A 60 metre vertical RC percussion drill bole tested the Winkleigh anomaly. No
mineralisation was encountered but the hole confirmed that the Cabbage Tree
Formation sandstone is thrust over younger Flowery Gully Limestone at the
anomaly site. The surface anomaly is interpreted to be sourced from the NE
dipping thrust or associated shear structures.
Further exploration on the Winkleigh thrust structure and the application of
magnetics to test structural signatures on mineralised sits in the region will be
conducted in licence Year 2.
TENEMENT INFORMAnON
EL 19/97 covers 16 km2 of freehold fann land and eucalypt plantation centred on
Winkleigh, west of the Tamar Valley (Figure 1).
The licence was awarded to Beaconsfield Gold NL in September 1997, to ex.plore for
gold in the probable southerly extension of the belt of Ordovician sedimentary rocks
which host the Tasmania Reef at Beaconsfield.
Infrastructure and services are well established throughout the area. Access to the
north of the tenement is via Rookery Road and to the south, via Winkleigh Road.
Both roads connect directly to the East Tamar Highway and consequently any part of
the EL can be accessed all year round within one hour from either Launceston or
Beaconsfield.
Beaconsfield Gold NL holds 100% equity in the licence.
This report deals with exploration conducted to date during licence Year 1 which ends
on 19 September 1998.
EXPLORATION PHILOSOPHY AND AIMS
The primary aim of the Company is to explore EL 19/97 for gold deposits in similar
stratigraphic and structural settings to the Tasmania Reef at Beaconsfield. It is also
recognised that potential exists within the pre Permian rocks west of the Tamar River
for mineralisation styles other than the high grade fault fill quartz reef style. In
addition to Tasmania Reef replicas; stockwork systems, saddle reefs, disseminated gold
in sandstone and limestone skams are valid exploration targets. Zinc-silver-lead hosted

in the Flowery Gully limestone is rated a secondary target within the EL Broadly, the
prospective geology comprises the NW-SE striking belt of thrust deformed CambrianDevonian sedimentary rocks south of Beaconsfield (Gee and Legge, 1971, Guilline,
Bravo & Naqvi, 1973). The geology of the Tasmania Reef is described in detail by
Hills (1998).
It is apparent from both the original Department of Mines Beaconsfield and Frankford
1:63,360 sheets and the recent 1:25,000 compilation (McClenahan, 1973) that two
major regional geology issues affect the design of an exploration strategy within EL
19/97.
I. The target rocks outcrop over approximately 20% of the tenement. Elsewhere
they are covered by a blanket of Permian and Cainozoic sediments of unknown
thickness, with the Permian rocks being locally intruded by Jurassic dolerite.
2. Ordovician sandstones and siltstones (probable Cabbage Tree Formation
correlates) have been interpreted to change abruptly along strike at the map sheet
boundary to Silurian-Devonian Eldon Group correlates.
The Year I exploration strategy has been to focus on the Ordovician (and possible
Siluro-Devonian) sedimentary units which outcrop/subcrop within the licence area and
to simultaneously improve the regional scale mapping and explore these rocks for gold
at a prospect generation level of intensity.
PREVIOUS PROSPECTING AND EXPLORATION
Despite a location some 10 km along strike from the Tasmania Reef host rocks no
evidence has been obtained, either from field work or library literature, of historical
gold production or prospecting within the area now covered by EL 19/97.
Minor prospecting occurred in 1925 at The Rookery, NW ofEL 19/97 and on Permian
mudstone (Mcintosh-Reid, 1925). No record of mineralisation is documented. In
1928 a 5 metre adit was driven on a north striking 30-60 cm wide quartz vein, known
as Nevilles Prospect, somewhere between Glengarry and Winkleigh (Scott, 1928 and
G. Purvis, pers. comm. 1998). The location and geology are poorly described but the
site is interpreted to be south of EL 19/97 and the host rocks are probably Cabbage
Tree Formation cleaved siltstones. Vein quartz sample assays reported by Scott
(1928) returned no gold and trace silver.
Modern reconnaissance scale exploration was conducted over the OrdovicianDevonian rocks between Beaconsfield and Mt Careless in the late 1980s by
Beaconsfield Gold Mines Ltd on behalf of the joint venture evaluating the Beaconsfield
Mine at that time.
As the operators of EL 17/73, Beaconsfield Gold Mines Ltd flew an
aeromagnetics/radiometrics survey, compiled the published regional geology and
conducted stream sediment geochemistry over a broad area, including that currently
within EL 19/97 (Hicks, 1989). All of the post Cambrian - pre Permian rocks within
EL 19/97 were assigned to an undifferentiated Ordovician aged "younger than
Cabbage Tree Formation" unit (Hicks, 1989). Sixteen drainage sites within or just

downstream from EL 19/97 were sampled and assayed for gold (BLEG) and copper,
lead, zinc and arsenic (-80#). The highest gold values recorded are 1400 and 1100
parts per trillion in creeks draining Jurassic dolerite and Permian mudstone, in the SE
and NE comers of the EL respectively. None of the base metals gave a worthwhile
response but slightly elevated arsenic values of 35 and 20 ppm were achieved in two
creeks in the Winkleigh area. Both creeks drain probable Cabbage Tree Formation
rocks.
A combined fixed wing aeromagneticslradiometrics survey was flown by Austirex
International Ltd in 1988, at 100 metres mean terrain clearance. A generalised
interpretation of the magnetic intensity data, by consultant geophysicist Dr. John
Bishop, produced a set of NE-SW and NW-SE magnetic grain linears not
corresponding to the positions of faults on the published geology (appendixed in
Hicks, 1989 - TCR 89-3011).
Some experimental imaging of the 1988 data was undertaken in the current licence
year by Dr R Richardson, Mineral Resources Tasmania. Map I shows a NE sun angle
image of the regional data. The data are overwhelmed by the effects of; the Andersons
Creek Ultramafic belt which runs into the western comer of EL 19/97, the dolerite
intrusions related to the Tamar Graben (including the large magnetic high in the SE
comer ofEL 19/97) and the E-W linear artifacts reflecting the 150 metre E-W traverse
spacing. Nevertheless, a prominent NW-SE trend exists through the Ordovician rocks
in the Winkleigh area and the margin of the on-lapping Permian cover is also
discernible. The prominent spot high in the NNW corner ofEL 19/97 is probably due
to the Westhaven dairy. Further work will be carried out in licence Year 2 on this data
set to attempt to filter out the mafic rock responses and enhance structures in the
Ordovician target rocks.
EL 19/97 YEAR 1 EXPLORATION RESULTS
a) Photogeology
In September 1997 a photo geological interpretation of the region containing EL 19/97
was completed by consultant geologist Dr Fred Baynes. The study was based on 1976
1:30,000 black and white and 1994 1:25,000 colour photography supplied by Tasmap,
Department of Environment and Land Management. Map 2 shows lithological and
stratigraphic units, bedding attitude and faulting as interpreted by a combination of
geomorphic domain recognition and photolinear analysis. In contrast to the published
Beaconsfield and Frankford geological map sheets, Map 2 shows 1) the Flowery Gully Limestone and Eldon Group correlate extending further
along strike and into EL 19/97, and
2) the SE striking pre Permian rocks in the NW corner of the EL are
interpreted as Cabbage Tree Formation and Flowery Gully Limestone.
The main difference in structural geology is that the major NW-ESE fault through the
centre of EL 19/97 is offset some 500 metres to the SE on Map 2, where it defines a
Cabbage Tree Formation Eldon Group correlate contact.

Given the high degree of uncertainty as to the stratigraphic affinities and structural
relationships of the pre Permian rocks, a program of mapping and rock chip and soil
sampling was designed to attempt resolution of the basic geology whilst at the same
time screening the target rocks for any preliminary indications of mineralisation.
b) Mapping and Sampling
The results of field mapping and interpretive geology are shown on Maps 3 and 4. The
Permian and younger geology has been given only a cursory check in the field,
sufficient to confirm the general distribution as shown on the published Geological
atlas maps.
Four lithological associations were recognised within the two sectors of Pre Permian
rocks outcropping within EL 19/97 and nearby to the NW, within the Beaconsfield
Mine Joint Venture tenement EL 20/94 Salisbury Hill.
I)
Black-dark grey slate grading to slatey shale and siltstone.
A
characteristic bleached weathering rind and linear 1-2 cm oxidised markings on
fracture surfaces are distinctive features of this lithology. No evidence of
fossils or bioturbation has been observed but this unit occurs along strike from
a belt of black slate containing Silurian-Devonian marine invertebrate fauna and
named the Com Hill Beds by Hills (1982). The slates within EL 19/97 are
assigned to the Corn Hill Beds but it is recognised that, in the absence of fossil
control, the slate could be a litho correlate with parts of the Blyths Creek
Formation or the Grubb Shale at Beaconsfield.
A NE dipping outcrop of quartz sandstone centred at 486,700mB,
5,328,850mN has been included in the Corn Hill Beds on Map 4, suggesting a
lutite dominant turbidite sequence similar to parts of the Mathinna Beds east of
the Tamar River. It is possible however that the sandstone body is a sliver of
Cabbage Tree Formation sandstone structurally emplaced within the Corn Hill
Beds.
2)
Dark grey to medium blue grey crystalline impure micritic limestone
with variable clots and veins of white calcite subcrops in a NW-SE trending
corridor in the central NW part of the EL (Map 4). The limestone unit pinches
out to the SE where it appears to be structurally truncated. The unit
corresponds to a line of drainage including sink holes and fresh rock was
mapped only around the several farm dams which have been developed along
the corridor. Most of the limestone underlies a thin flat lying blanket of
Permian mudstone.
Approximately I krn NW of the EL boundary, the limestone outcrops and
bedding dips at 50° towards the ENE. The limestone within EL 19/97 is a
strike extension of the Flowery Gully Limestone.
3)
Pink to greenish grey cleaved siltstones, in part phyllitic, were mapped
in two sectors within the EL (Map 4). The siltstones are distinctively
bioturbated and contain oxidised porous zones of low density residue from

carbonate dissolution. At three sites (Map 3) small (0.5-2 cm) ribbed orthid like brachiopods were recovered and have been sent to John Laurie, AGSO, for
identification. At the time of writing a preliminary examination suggests the
fossils are Lower Ordovician and belong to the Cabbage Tree Formation
(Laurie, 1996(a) and (b».
At Beaconsfield, orthid brachiopods are used in core logging as stratigraphic
markers for Lower Transition Beds sandstone and the calc siltstones are mainly
confined to the stratigraphically higher Upper Transition Beds (P. Hills, pers.
comm. 1998).
4)
Generally NE dipping quartz sandstones are interstratified with the
siltstones described in 3) but are independently assigned to the Cabbage Tree
Formation Lower Transition Beds on the basis of quartz lithic granule and
pebble interbeds. The sandstones are typically thickly bedded (0.5 - 2 metres),
well sorted and form topographic strike ridges. Secondary silicification has
overprinted much of the primary textures, at least in outcrop where the rocks
are aptly described as orthoquartzites. The secondary silica is commonly greyblue colour. Quartz veining and veinlet stockworking, brecciation and laminar
fabric occur locally within the sandstone near major faults (Maps 3 and 4)
The existence of apparently conformable NE dipping interstratified Cabbage Tree
Formation calc siltstones and quartz sandstones in EL 19/97 suggests intra Cabbage
Tree facies change along strike. Synclinal folding could explain the distribution of
siltstone and sandstone units but where bedding was observed in the field a
conformable NE dipping sequence is indicated. The only outcrop dipping west is a
fault bounded sandstone body (487,200mE, 5,328,400rnN - see Map 4).
In addition to the major magnetic highs discussed previously, a major NW-SE trending
photo linear corresponding to a drainage corridor is recognised at the Com Hill Beds Flowery Gully Limestone contact in the central NW comer of the EL. This feature
was extended along strike to the SE and interpreted as a thrust fault after the drilling of
WDH-l (to be discussed later in this report) confirmed stratigraphic reversal of
Cabbage Tree Formation sandstone and Flowery Gully Limestone.
The NE dipping thrust appears to be disconforrnable at a low angle with the footwall
limestone, as the limestone unit is thinning to the SE. In the overthrust block a series
of NE trending faults juxtapose the Com Hill Beds against the Cabbage Tree
Formation.
In the Pentlands Road area, within EL 20/94, east dipping Cabbage Tree Formation
sandstone overlies subcropping black slates. The basal sandstones exhibit tectonite
fabric and the contact is interpreted as a thrust, parallel to and 1 km NE of the
"Winkleigh Thrust". The "Pentlands Road Thrust" is on trend with the post Jurassic
normal fault in the SE of the EL, suggesting reactivation of Devonian structures. On a
larger scale, Devonian thrusts penetrating deep into the crust have probably controlled
the position of Jurassic dolerite intrusions and Cainozoic graben development along the
Tamar Valley.
The distribution of mapped Cabbage Tree Formation rocks in two sectors, separated
by Permian cover in the central part of the EL (Map 4), could be explained by dextral

fault offset or monoclinal folding. A set of NE-SW trending shear structures parallel
to the principal thrusting compression direction appears to have juxtaposed Corn Hill
Beds against the Cabbage Tree Formation in the southern sector and could be part of
the offset structure. Thrust related NE trending shears within Lower Transition Beds
is essentially the structural/stratigraphic setting of the Tasmanian Reef and therefore an
attractive exploration environment.
Thirty-seven composite chip samples were taken and at the time of writing, assays for
34 are available (Table 1, Appendix 1). Gold anomalies ranging from 170 - 200 ppb
were achieved from three samples (WG-l. -2 and -8) taken at two sites - Pentlands
Road (cfRookery Road) and Winkleigh Road (see Map 6). At both sites the rocks
are sandstone orthoquartzites, pervasively silicified, quartz veined and in part
stockworked and brecciated. A characteristic is local development of a grey blue
colour in the secondary silica. Both sites are interpreted as sitting in the structural
hangingwall ofNE dipping thrusts, near the fault subcrop position.
Similar rocks (but with less deformation) were sampled from the two road gravel
quarries adjacent to Bulls Road, in the northern sector of Cabbage Tree Formation
rocks. Only two samples (WG-4, -7) scored above level of detection but the results of
50 and 20 ppb Au are not considered anomalous, given that 19 hand picked composite
samples were taken from the two quarries.
Arsenic shows an erratic correlation with gold. At the Winkleigh Road site very high
arsenic values (965, 575 ppm) coincide with the gold anomalies but at Pentlands Road,
WG-8 returned 200 ppb gold and < 1 ppm arsenic. Apart from the Winkleigh Road
anomaly there is no reliable pattern in the arsenic data.
A population of results sits in the range < I to 5 ppm and sporadic elevation to values
ranging from +20 ppm to a maximum of 142 ppm occurred in 9 samples. These
samples included abundant vein quartz but many of the other samples were similarly
enriched in vein quartz and yet contain no arsenic.
Base metal assays were acquired on the first 9 samples only, in response to their
generally inferior performance to arsenic as indicator metals for gold at Beaconsfield.
A moderate lead anomaly of 269 ppm occurs in one of the Winkleigh Road anomaly
samples but not the other.
A conclusion ITom the rock chip sampling is that several samples should be taken from
every site where the rocks show any evidence of alteration or deformation which could
be associated with mineralising fluids. Minor concentrations of gold can be expected
in some samples of vein quartz without being related to genuine exploration anomalies.
c) Soil Survey
Nine soil sampling traverses totaling 315 samples were completed on Cabbage Tree
Formation rocks. Maps 5 and 6 show that most ofthe sampling followed strike ridges
in an attempt to follow the sandstone/conglomerate units considered correlates of the
Lower Transition Beds. Traverses A and F however act as tie lines and are close to
the dip orientation. Traverses A and D extend across the EL boundary and Traverse
E is entirely within the adjoining EL 20/94. These traverse locations are intentional, to

tie in with earlier ridge top soil sampling conducted by the Beaconsfield Mine Joint
Venture on EL 20/94 Salisbury Hill. Traverse E successfully repeated the "Rookery
Road South" arsenic anomaly generated in EL 20/94, which in tum was largely
responsible for the soil survey on EL 19/97.
Samples of BIC horizon soil were taken at 20 metre spacing. Soil profiles typically
ranged from podzolic to duplex and where developed over Cabbage Tree Formation
sandstones, the soils typically have a thin (1-10 cm) organic rich horizon, a dominant
bleached lower A horizon (10-50 cm) and weakly to moderately developed ferruginous
combined B-C horizon (5-20cm) above regolith. Typically it is not possible to
discriminate between Band C horizons.
Samples were taken by mattock, with an initial cut used to expose the soil profile and
target the sample position, followed by an adjacent cut to take the samples. Samples
were screened in the field through a 3 mm sieve and approximately I kg of -3mm
product was retained and assayed for gold and arsenic by Analabs.
It was noted that polymict lithic pebbles and grit were commonly encountered on the
surface and in the surficial soil materials and these are interpreted as lag detritus from
the weathering of Permian pebbly mudstone, which formerly covered all of the pre
Permian rocks currently exposed in the EL.
Assay data are attached in Appendix I and summarised on Maps 5 and 6. Gold
geochemistry (Map 5) shows very little character, with all samples scoring < 5 ppb.
The highest concentration of values above level of detection is in the central part of
Traverse B whereas on Traverse F, all samples scored below level of detection. No
useful conclusions can be made from these data.
Arsenic geochemistry (Map 6) shows two anomalous sites (Rookery Road South and
Winkleigh Road) which coincide with the rock chip anomalies discussed in the
previous section The anomalies are arbitarily defined as those samples scoring 40-90
ppm arsenic, against a background with the majority of samples scoring < 10 ppm
arsenic. In general, soils over the southern sector of Cabbage Tree Formation rocks
appear to contain more arsenic than in the northern sector.
A possible explanation for the lack of gold encountered in this survey is the dilution or
contamination effect of the soil component derived from weathered Permian rocks..
This theory requires that arsenic is sufficiently abundant in the Cabbage Tree
Formation sandstones and sufficiently mobile in the overlying soil to produce coherent
anomalies.
Any further soil work on the EL will endeavour to auger samples deeper into the soil
profile to avoid the Permian detritus
d) Drilling
In May 1998 a 60 metre vertical RC percussion drill hole (WDH-I) was completed on
the site of the Winkleigh Road soil/rock chip anomaly. The hole was collared on
Cabbage Tree Formation sandstone and intersected Flowery Gully Limestone at 43
metres. The contact appears to be faulted, with a minor pyrite increase in the

structural hanging wall and calcite> quartz veining in the foot wall. If the Cabbage
Tree pick is correct the fault must be a thrust, as the stratigraphy is reversed. The
structure dips to the NE and the surface anomaly site is close to the Cabbage TreeFlowery Gully contact.
Composite two metre sample splits for the total hole were assayed by Analabs but no
significant gold is present. Only one sample scored above level of detection (8-10
metres = 20 ppb Au), suggesting slight supergene concentration at the base of
oxidation (Figure 2, Table 2).
Arsenic shows an erratic enrichment within the fresh Cabbage Tree Formation
sandstones, with several samples between base oxidation and the limestone contact
scoring> 100 ppm. It was also noted that the Ti/Zr ratio increased markedly along
with the visible pyrite content and water flow (?fracturing) some 8-10 metres above the
thrust contact.
e) Expenditure
Total exploration expenditure from 19 September 1997 to 30 June 1998 was $41,315,
of which 12% was spent on drilling. Because of the timing of reporting requirements
and the fact that the licence year and the financial year do not coincide, documented
expenditure in Year I represents less than 10 months exploration activity. This
discrepancy will correct itself in the licence Year 2 and in all future Annual Reports,
where expenditure statements will relate to the 12 months ending on 30 June.
f) Conclusions
Although no gold mineralisation was encountered in WDH-l, there is reasonable
evidence that weakly mineralised fluids have permeated the sandstones above the
thrust. This interpretation is consistent with the position and nature of the surface
anomalies and consequently there remains potential for mineralisation within the plane
of the thrust or within NE-SW trending structures parallel to the principal
compressional direction.
Current underground mapping at Beaconsfield is revealing I cm wide quartz veins
grading approximately 2 ppm gold at distances of <1 00 metres from the Tasmania Reef
(G McDonald, pers. comm., 1998).
If these veins are diluted by sequential cracking and the inflow of barren silica, then a
vein of 1 metre @ 20 ppb gold can easily be formed. This concept can explain the
magnitude and style of the rock chip anomalies at Winkleigh and Pentlands Road.
Exploration of the Wink:leigh thrust system will be the priority of the Year 2 work
program on EL 19/97.

YEAR 2 WORK PROGRAM AND BUDGET
Regional scale work will concentrate on improving our understanding of the fault
styles associated with known mineralisation north of EL 19/97 and exploration
anomalies within the EL. Further imagery and interpretation of the 1988 aeromagnetic
data will be compared with the detailed helimag and ground magnetics currently in
progress at Beaconsfield, with the aim to define a magnetics readable structural
signature over the Tasmania Reef
At the prospect scale, the priority is to follow up the Winkleigh Road anomaly and its
associated thrust structure. A program of basal soil sampling on lines oriented in the
thrust dip direction will be conducted in September 1998 and any reasonable
geochemical anomalies will be drilled during Year 2.
Ground magnetics will be tried at Winkleigh if convincing results are achieved from the
Beaconsfield survey.
Year 2 cost estimates are tabled below.
