As per World Gold Council guidelines ASX:DRM Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report Doray Minerals Limited (ASX: DRM, “Doray”, “the Company”) is pleased to announce its Quarterly
Activities Report for the period ended 30 September 2014.
The September Quarter’s gold production from Andy Well was 18,265 ounces with C1 cost of $773/oz and
All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC) of A$1,384/oz. A record total of 73,835 tonnes of ore were milled during the
Quarter with a head grade of 7.82g/t.
Doray’s Managing Director, Mr Allan Kelly, said the September Quarter gold production and costs were in
line with guidance forecasts for 2014-15.
“Doray continues to meet both its production and cost forecasts and is pleased the Quarter also produced
record mill throughput,” Mr Kelly said.
“Doray sold 18,962 ounces during the Quarter, at an average gold price received of A$1,508 per ounce,
producing revenue from gold sales of A$28.6M.
“Net debt was reduced to $12M, which is now repayable over 12 months to September 2015.”
Mr Kelly said production for 2014-15 financial year was expected to be in the range of 77,000-85,000oz,
with forecast average cash operating costs (C1) in the range of A$700-800/oz.
“The increase in forecast operating costs, compared with the 2014FY, results from lower grade material
being mined from underground in the second year, as predicted in the 2012 BFS,” he said.
“This increase in costs will be partially offset during the second half of the financial year by mining and
processing of high-grade ore from the Stage 2 Open Pit.”
During the Quarter, improvements in dilution control resulted in an increase in the head grade and a
subsequent decrease in operating costs.
During the Quarter, the high-grade Judy Lode Resource was converted into an initial Ore Reserve and
Doray announced an updated Resource and Reserve increasing the Resource inventory at Andy Well by
75,000 ounces, replacing the depletion of mining over the past 12 months.
“The maiden high-grade Judy Lode Reserve effectively replaces the depletion from the first year of
underground mining at Wilber,” Mr Kelly explained.
“This is a great result for the Company and we have identified further potential for future mine life
extensions. Recent drilling identified the potential for substantial depth extensions to the Wilber Lode
Resource and a third high-grade gold Resource within the Suzie Zone,” he said.
“Deep diamond drilling extended the Wilber Lode by at least 200m below the current mine plan and drilling
campaigns in the northern Murchison were also active. The maiden Horse Well JV drilling campaign was
completed with diamond drilling intersecting a major gold bearing structure.”
“The Quarter confirmed that Doray is delivering on stated gold production and costs, and is active in its
exploration programs which are providing significant potential to extend mine life at Andy Well. The
Company remains in a strong position and looks forward to providing further updates on exploration and
production success,” Mr Kelly said.
During the Quarter, Mr Peter Lester was appointed as a Non-Executive Director to the Doray Board. His
corporate and business development experience will complement the Board as the Company enters its
next period of growth.
ASX:DRM Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report 1. ANDY WELL GOLD PROJECT
The Andy Well Gold Project is located approximately 45km north of Meekatharra, in the northern
Murchison region of Western Australia and is the first new gold operation in the Murchison in over 10
years. Doray commenced mining and site works in November 2012 with first gold production in August
2013, approximately 3.5 years after the initial discovery of the high-grade Wilber Lode gold deposit in
March 2010.
The Company is targeting production in the order of 75,000-80,000 ounces per annum from Andy Well.
The discovery of depth extensions to the Wilber Lode and numerous parallel mineralised structures
provides confidence that the Project will surpass the initial 3.7 year mine life indicated in the Bankable
Feasibility Study (“BFS”).
1.1. Safety
The Andy Well Gold Project incurred no Lost Time Injuries (“LTI”) during the Quarter, and had achieved
387 consecutive days without an LTI to 30 September 2014. The Project has had no mining-related
LTI’s since the commencement of construction and mining in November 2012.
1.2. Wilber Lode Underground Gold Mine
During the Quarter, ore was hauled and processed exclusively from the high-grade Wilber Lode
underground gold mine. The Company continued with underground development and stoping to both
northern and southern panels of the Wilber Lode, as well as preparing for mining of the Stage 2 Open Pit
cut-back during the 2015 financial year.
Mining and Development
The Wilber northern decline advanced down to 1157RL, 283m below surface, with the southern decline
accessing Wilber ore lode south of the central dolerite dyke also advancing down to 1266RL, 174m
below surface (Figure 1). Mining through the central dyke from the north, approximately 100metres
below the current southern workings, started by month end in order to open up more areas for stoping.

Development drives were deepened to 6.5m deep by 3m wide replacing drives previously mined at 4m
deep by 3m wide. These were subsequently benched below the drives using development jumbo rigs in
order to place cemented rock fill (CRF) sill pillars below each level. Where geological faults and
structures occur adjacent to the ore veins, CRF sill pillars have proved successful in strengthening local
ground support required to decrease unplanned stoping dilution.
An updated geological model was completed during the quarter and used to reschedule the mining plan
for ore extraction from the Wilber Lode. This model incorporated the experience of the thickness and
grade variability and underground engineering conditions encountered during the first year’s production.
The plan also takes into account the increased milling capacity achieved through debottlenecking the
processing plant so that forecast gold production can be achieved even if more tonnes are required to
be treated as a result of unplanned dilution.

1.3. Stage 2 Open Pit
Recent grade control drilling of the future Stage 2 Open Pit, combined with the experience from mining
the Stage 1 Open Pit, suggests the near surface lens of high grade ore contains more ounces than
forecast within the original BFS model.
Approvals to amend the original Mining Proposal submitted during FY14 and to approve the required
Project Management Plan for this work are expected early in October.
A tender process has commenced to appoint an open pit contractor to commence mining during the third
quarter.
A small length of the Great Northern Highway, adjacent to the pit area, will be realigned to allow this
open pit to proceed. Preliminary approval was received and final documentation submitted to the Main
Roads WA in order for this roadwork to be carried out starting early in the second quarter. Tenders for
the realignment were received and a preferred contractor appointed.
1.4. Processing and Gold Production
Gold production came from stoping of ore from the northern panel of the Wilber Lode, down to 1315RL,
and from the very high-grade “hanging wall” lode down to 1255RL. Development continued within the
southern panel in preparation for commencement of stoping.
A total of 75,817 tonnes were crushed during the Quarter at a rate of 66.9 tonnes/hr. A record total
73,835 tonnes were milled during the Quarter at a rate of 34.6 tonnes/hr (well above design capacity)
with availability of 98.9% and a reconciled mill head grade of 7.82g/t.
ASX:DRM Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report Recoveries continued to be very high with 79.1% recovered from the gravity circuit out of a total gold
recovery of 98.1%.Reagent consumptions continued generally at or below budgeted rates.

1.5. Production and Cost Guidance for FY2015
Gold production and costs achieved during the Quarter were in line with forecasts for 2014-15.
Improvements in mining methods resulted in improved monthly operating costs (Figures 2 and 3) and an
average cash operating cost of A$773/oz for the Quarter. Average All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC) were
A$1,384/oz.
Doray expects production for 2014-15 financial year to be in the range of 77,000-85,000oz, including
approximately 14,000 ounces from the Stage 2 Open Pit. Forecast average cash operating costs (C1)
for the 2014-15 financial year will be in the range of A$700-800/oz. The increase in forecast operating
costs, compared with the 2014FY, results from lower grade material being mined from underground in
the second year, as predicted in the 2012 BFS. This increase in costs will be partially offset during the
second half of the financial year by mining and processing of high-grade ore from the Stage 2 Open Pit.

ASX:DRM Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report 2. EXPLORATION AND NEW BUSINESS
Doray has an exploration tenement portfolio covering a total of approximately 4,000km2 in both Western
Australia (WA) and South Australia (SA). In the northern Murchison Region of WA, Doray is actively
exploring for gold mineralisation which has the potential to provide additional near-term development
opportunities for the Andy Well Gold Project. The Company continues to explore for large, stand-alone
development opportunities over its entire exploration portfolio in WA and SA.
2.1. Andy Well Exploration
2.1.1. Andy Well Footwall Corridor
Final results have been received from the Andy Well Corridor RC drill program drilled during the June
2014 quarter (see Figure 4 below). Drilling was designed to test the prospective structures identified in
the footwall to the Wilber and Judy Lodes. In the context of the broad spaced drilling over the majority of
the target area, results received to date are considered encouraging, with confirmation that the various
structures host gold mineralisation over a significant strike length. Significant intersections returned
include:


MNRC311 – [email protected]/t Au from 51-52mdh (Suzie Zone North)
MNRC309 – [email protected]/t Au from 283-284mdh (Suzie Zone North)
Infill drilling is planned along strike from MNRC311 which is interpreted to represent the northern
extension of the Suzie mineralised structure.
Drillhole details, along with significant intersections, are tabulated in Appendix A to this report, with
relevant technical details summarised in the attached JORC Code Table 1.
Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report Figure 4. Andy Well Project – Footwall Corridor RC Drilling.
ASX:DRM Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report 2.1.2. Suzie
During the quarter, five diamond holes were drilled to target the down dip extension of the Suzie Zone
mineralisation and following up on a previous RC intersection of [email protected]/t Au including [email protected]/t
Au (previously reported in the June 2014 Quarterly report) (Figure 5).. All 5 holes successfully
intersected the targeted Suzie structure with significant results including:



MNDD148 – [email protected]/t Au from 319.8-320.3mdh
MNDD150 – [email protected]/t Au from 413.5-414mdh
MNDD149 - [email protected]/t Au from 494-494.8mdh
The Suzie Zone is the third high-grade gold deposit to be discovered by Doray at Andy Well and is
located parallel to the Wilber Lode, currently being mined, and the Judy Lode, which contains a second
high-grade gold Reserve.
Figure 5. – Suzie Zone – Long section with recent diamond drilling results
The Suzie Zone is interpreted to continue to the south and is hosted within a similar structural setting to
that seen at the Judy South deposit. Drilling is currently being planned to test the southern extension
within an area that has not been previously explored. Drillhole details, along with significant intersections,
are tabulated in Appendix A to this report, with relevant technical details summarised in the attached
JORC Code Table 1.
ASX:DRM Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report 2.1.3. Resource and Reserve Update
Doray announced an updated Resource and Reserve during the Quarter, increasing the Resource
inventory at Andy Well by 75,000 ounces and replacing the depletion of mining over the past 12 months.
Additionally, the high-grade Judy Lode Resource was converted into an initial Ore Reserve and replaces
the first year of underground production from the Wilber Lode (ASX announcement on 6 August 2014).
Potential for substantial depth extensions to the Wilber Lode Resource and a third high-grade gold
Resource within the Suzie Zone have also been identified by recent drilling.
Total Mineral Resources at Andy Well are now estimated at 1.273 Mt @ 10.8g/t Au for 440,000
contained ounces. The revised Resource includes a re-estimation of the Wilber Lode deposit,
incorporating an increased understanding of the orebody after 12 months of mining as well as relevant
increased data density in parts.
This process has resulted in an increase in the Wilber Lode Resource of approximately 55,000 ounces
effectively maintaining the current high-grade underground Resource inventory of Andy Well at the preproduction level.
In addition, the increased data density in the currently active mining areas has allowed classification of a
higher-grade portion of the in-situ Wilber Resource into the Measured category for the first time.
Approximately 78% of the updated Wilber Lode Resource is now classified as “Measured and Indicated”.

Note: Wilber Lode reported above a 0.1g/t Au, Judy Lode reported above 0.0g/t Au. Upper cut-off
grades vary, and are documented in JORC Table 1 (Wilber – attached; Judy - ASX release 6/8/14).
Rounding errors may occur. All Mineral Resources are inclusive of those used to determine Ore
Reserves.
Total Ore Reserves at Andy Well are estimated at 797Kt @ 8.6g/t Au for 220,000 contained ounces.
The updated total Reserve inventory encompasses a depletion of the in-situ Wilber Reserve due to
mining of the stage 1 open pit and underground depletion up to 30 June 2014.
The maiden high-grade Judy Lode Reserve effectively replaces the depletion from the first year of
underground mining at Wilber (ASX announcement on 6 August 2014).
Longer term, and scheduled within the current mine design, Doray expects the mine life will be extended
by mining additional underground Inferred Resources which are not included within the updated
Reserves as shown in Table 4.

Several near-term targets exist for immediate extensions to the Resource and Reserve base at Andy
Well, through extensions to existing deposits. As illustrated in Figure 6 below, the revised Resource
estimate for the Wilber Lode, in conjunction with the ongoing diamond drilling campaign at the Wilber
Deeps target has highlighted several immediate targets for extensions to the current Resource and
defined Reserves:



The area of the Wilber Lode between 19450mN and 19700mN, and below 200m depth, has
highlighted a significant pod of mineralisation within the southern end of the Wilber Lode
Resource at a grade of +10g/t Au, equating to approximately 38,000ozs at an average grade of
20.2g/t Au (Indicated and Inferred only). This zone has not been evaluated as part of the
current Ore Reserve and subsequent underground mine design.
As reported to the ASX on the 6 August 2014, the current diamond drilling targeting the depth
extensions of the Wilber Lode has returned the first intercept from MNDD159 of 0.9m @ 57.0g/t
from 762.9mdh. Further results for this drilling will be released upon completion and receipt of
assays. As the current Ore Reserve finishes at the base of the Indicated Resource boundary
(see Figure 4), Doray is confident that with increased drilling in the Inferred portion of the Wilber
Lode and below, that the grade and width of mineralisation currently being mined will continue
at depth, allowing for further extensions to the underground mine life.
Work on the recently discovered Suzie Zone, located immediately east of the Judy Lode, is
continuing. Work being planned will focus on extensions to the known mineralisation, with the
aim of increasing the strike of defined mineralisation and enabling estimation of a maiden
Mineral Resource.
Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report Figure 6. Wilber Mineral Resource Estimate 2014, long section view.
Note the area estimated outside of the Inferred Resource boundary is not of sufficient confidence level
to allow classification according to the JORC Code (2012) and hence is not included in the Wilber
Mineral Resource.
2.1.4. Wilber Lode Extensional Drilling
During the Quarter, Doray commenced a six hole diamond drilling programme aimed at increasing the
depth of data coverage below the current Resource and current mine plan for the Wilber Lode deposit.
This programme was designed to test three identified depth extension target zones below the current
Resource with two holes each, testing a total depth of approximately 250m below previous drilling, or
greater than 700m below surface.
As at the end of the Quarter, five of the six planned holes had been drilled (see Figure 2). The target
structure has been intersected in all of these holes, with the intersections demonstrating the same
geological characteristics as material currently being mined from the Wilber Lode.
The results of the first hole, MNDD159, were received during the Quarter (see ASX release 6 August
2014), and returned an assay result of:

0.9m @ 57.0g/t Au from 762.9-763.8m.
Core processing and assaying of the remaining drill holes was still in progress as at the end of the
Quarter.
ASX:DRM Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report This result from MNDD159 is considered highly significant, as it confirms the persistence of high-grade
mineralisation in the Wilber Lode at significant depth below the current mine plan, and thus the potential
for an extension to the current Ore Reserve and mine life at Wilber, which is the current mainstay of
mining activities at Andy Well.
2.2. Northern Murchison Exploration
Abbotts Project (E51/1277, E51/1043 Doray 100%)(E51/1334 Doray 80%)
Regional Aircore Drilling
Regional-scale, broad spaced aircore drilling across numerous previously untested or poorly tested
structural targets within the Abbotts Project area is ongoing with several significant intervals returned this
Quarter. To date, 416 holes have been completed for a total of 25,586 m, constituting approximately
90% of the first pass program. Infill drilling will follow once all results are returned, compiled and
interpreted.
Figure 7 below, along with Table 5, show the best of the intervals returned to date from the Jasper Star,
Garden Gully and Abbotts North areas. No results of significance have been returned so far from
Abbotts South or Abbotts West.

Bourke’s Find Project (M51/831, M51/530 Doray 100%)
Drilling was completed at two prospects within the Bourke’s Find Project area. A total of 61 holes for
4992m were completed at the Golden Bracelet and Stillsons Prospects.
Golden Bracelet Prospect
The Golden Bracelet Prospect is based around a small shaft and associated workings. Historical drilling
indicated the potential for shallow, low-moderate grade Au mineralisation (Figure 8).
Deeper aircore holes recently drilled by Doray returned a number of significant intersections that suggest
the potential for a small resource to be delineated at Golden Bracelet remains. Further work including
additional aircore and RC drilling, is warranted.
Stillsons Prospect
Drilling at the Stillsons Prospect did not return any significant intervals and no further work will be
conducted.

Dusk til Dawn Prospect (E69/2492)
Diamond Drilling
Diamond hole ACDD001, was collared between two previously drilled RC holes in order to increase the
understanding of the style and nature of alteration, mineralisation and structure within the Dusk til Dawn
system and to inform the subsequent aircore drilling program.
ACDD001 intersected an “envelope” of highly anomalous gold along much of its length with a semicontinuous interval of 120m @ 0.60 g/t Au being returned from 105-225m (Figure 9).
Mineralisation was accompanied by strong shearing and potassic alteration including biotite, feldspar,
quartz and pyrite and was hosted in both the meta-sedimentary package and also the accompanying
granitic intrusives, similar to the Crack of Dawn prospect to the south.
Structural data from ACDD001 indicates that the hole was drilled oblique (approximately 0450) to a
major gold bearing shear that could be a feeder to a significant gold deposit along the granite contact
further to the northwest. The structure is at least 50m in true thickness, has a northwest strike and subvertical dip.
Further details can be found in the ASX release dated 10/09/2014.
Doray Minerals Ltd – Sept 2014 Quarterly Report Figure 9. Dusk til Dawn Prospect, Cross Section 263,200mE, looking east.
Aircore Drilling
Aircore drill testing at Dusk til Dawn to the northwest, along strike from ACDD001 has now been
completed. This program was part-funded through an Exploration Incentive Scheme (EIS) grant from the
Western Australian Government. Three lines were completed immediately northwest of ACDD001 at
approximately 200m intervals with holes collared “top to tail” along the lines in order to achieve 100%
drill coverage. A total of 64 holes were drilled for 2908m.
Many of the holes intersected strongly foliated intermediate volcanics adjacent to the granite contact,
with significant pyrite, biotite and silica alteration observed. Samples have been submitted for analysis
with results still pending.
Regional Program (E69/2492, E69/2820, E69/2765)
Aircore Drilling
As part of the EIS funded drilling programme, a series of traverses were completed more regionally,
targeting the granite contact on either side of the intrusion as well as a significant apparent
demagnetised target to the east of the main granite intrusion. A total of 83 holes for 4264m were drilled
(For further details of these targets refer to the DRM announcement of the 10/09/2014).
Significant alteration has been identified in chips on the eastern contact with mafic and ultramafic rocks
intersected adjacent to the granite with biotite, chlorite, pyrite and silica alteration prominent.
Drilling across the demagnetised target to the east indicated that talc-chlorite schists were dominant with
the subdued magnetic response possibly due to the interaction of carbonate dominated fluids with
serpentinised ultramafic rocks. These types of fluids are common during metamorphism but are also
typical in many hydrothermal systems that form gold deposits in the Yilgarn.
Assay results from the regional aircore program are pending.

Nuckulla Hill
Doray has now completed surface geochemical sampling on all areas of regolith deemed amenable
within the Nuckulla Hill Project area. Sampling involved the collection of fine fraction material from
approximately 100mm – 200mm below the surface. This work followed on from orientation studies
completed during 2013 to determine the effectiveness of this method of sampling in the region.
Samples were initially collected on a nominal 400m x 100m grid with areas of anomalism infilled,
typically to 100m x 50m. The material was sieved in the field (however, where the sample was wet due
to rain, samples were sieved by Genalysis at the Adelaide Sample Prep facility) and the samples
analysed by a proprietary method by Genalysis Laboratory Services in Perth (details appear in JORC
2012 Summary Table 1 below).
Two significant anomalies have been defined as a result:
The Bluebush Prospect soil anomaly (Figure 10) is approximately 150m x 1400m N-S and is located
within a flexure in the same structure that hosts the Bimba Prospect 8km to the north. The Bluebush
anomaly peaks at approximately 7-10 times background (7.89 ppb Au). A single N-S line of shallow RAB
drilling was completed by previous workers in the vicinity of the southern end of the Bluebush anomaly.
This drilling targeted a magnetic feature and does not directly test the soil anomaly.
The Mulga Prospect soil anomaly (Figure 10) is situated approximately 4km to the south and along
strike from Bluebush. The anomaly is approximately 250m x 600m, peaks at 10 – 12 times background
(up to 8.9 ppb Au) and is truncated to the south, at its widest point, by overlapping aeolian sand dunes.
The regulatory and Native Title approvals processes are now underway to allow drill testing of these two
prospect areas and other, smaller anomalies.
2.4. Business Development
Doray maintains an active business development program and examined a number of potential
tenement, project and corporate-scale opportunities during the Quarter.
The program has so far resulted in the purchase of the majority interest in the Gnaweeda Gold Project
and negotiation of the Horse Well JV.
Gnaweeda JV Project Purchase
During the Quarter, Doray announced it had executed an agreement to purchase a majority interest in
the Gnaweeda Gold Project JV (“Gnaweeda”), located in the Northern Murchison region of Western
Australia. Doray will purchase 88% of the project for $500,000 and has the right to earn up to 100% of
the project (see ASX release 16 July 2014).
The Gnaweeda Project covers a largely buried greenstone belt located approximately 10 kilometres
south-east of Doray’s high-grade Andy Well Gold Mine (Figure 11), which is currently in production..
Exploration for gold mineralisation at the Project has been carried out by various companies since the
mid-1980s, including Dominion Mining Ltd, Newcrest Mining Ltd, Helix Resources Ltd, Teck and
Archean Star, with most explicitly targeting a stand-alone gold operation. The recent commissioning of
Doray’s nearby Andy Well Gold Mine has significantly altered the strategic importance of the Gnaweeda
Project. Several existing prospects have been identified and will be targeted by Doray’s exploration team
in the near term, with a view to delineating potential satellite mining operations for the Andy Well project.
To date, extensive gold mineralisation has been identified by previous explorers at two main prospects:
“Turnberry - St Annes”; and “Bunarra”.

Criteria
JORC Code explanation
Sampling
techniques
 Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random
chips, or specific specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under
investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or
handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should
not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
 Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample
representivity and the appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
Drilling
Commentary
 Reverse circulation (RC) percussion drill chips collected
through a cyclone and cone splitter. Samples are
collected on a 1m basis.
 Half core sampled diamond core, 0.5m to 1.3m down hole
length; defined by the geologist.
 RC chips undergo a mass decrease through cone splitting
to approximately 3kg. Splitter is levelled at the beginning
of each hole
 Drill core is measured by tape and compared to downhole
core blocks consistent with industry standards.

Material and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of
high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results,
the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated
and some typical examples of such aggregations should
be shown in detail.
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal
equivalent values should be clearly stated.
These relationships are particularly important in the
reporting of Exploration Results.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the
drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are
reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect
(eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’).
Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and
tabulations of intercepts should be included for any
significant discovery being reported These should include,
but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar
locations and appropriate sectional views.

observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical
survey results; bulk samples – size and method of
treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density,
groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics;
potential deleterious or contaminating substances.
