ASX Announcement
Assays confirm high grade uranium at NE Myra, Drilling re-commences on Tin Camp Creek Project Drilling Re-commences on Tin Camp Creek Project
Assay results received for NE Myra and Orion North Drilling
Best intersection of 3m @ 1489ppmU3O8 at NE Myra confirming presence of uranium mineralisation.
Drilling underway at Orion South prospect.
Further drilling to be undertaken at Mintaka to test down dip extensions of mineralisation followed by initial drill testing of Orion East.
Alligator Energy Ltd (AGE) is pleased to provide a further update of exploration activities at the Tin Camp Creek Project.
Assay results confirm presence of uranium mineralisation at NE Myra
Laboratory assay results have been received for drill samples obtained from recent drilling in the NE Myra Orion North area.
A best intersection of 3m @ 1489ppm U3O8 from 60m was returned from drill hole OBR14-111 located on the eastern most drill line completed at the NE Myra prospect. An intersection of 2m @ 1005ppm U3O8 from 93m was returned from OBR14-108 which is located approximately 500 metres to the west and along strike from OBR14-111. These two intersections are hosted in altered schists and are interpreted to be linked by a mineralised structure. Further potential exists further to the northeast and along strike of existing drilling.
Anomalous uranium mineralisation (>200 - 1000 ppm U3O8) was also intersected over narrow intervals in four additional drill holes in the Orion North-NE Myra area.
The presence of high grade uranium mineralisation worth pursuing in the NE Myra area is encouraging. However, in the Orion North area although anomalous uranium mineralisaton was encountered, potential for high grade mineralisation has been
downgraded.
Both targets were derived from the recent SAM - MMR airborne geophysical survey results and give great confidence that this technology coupled with geochemical information is providing good quality drill targets. Planning and prioritisation of further work in the NE Myra area will be undertaken following completion of drill testing and assessment of the Orion South, Mintaka and Orion East targets. No further work is planned for Orion North
Drill hole locations are shown on Figure 1 and a summary of assay results are provided in Table
Alligator has re-commenced drilling at the Tin Camp Creek Project. Drilling over the next month will include initial testing of two new target areas (Orion South and Orion East) as well as further drilling to test the down dip extensions of uranium mineralisation identified at Mintaka in September. A further 1500 metres of RC and diamond drilling is planned in this campaign over the next four to six weeks.
Drilling has commenced to test the Orion South area. Drilling is testing SAM/MMR and EM
targets defined by recent surveys. Two 300 metre drill holes are to be completed.

Alligator Energy Ltd is an Australian, ASX listed, exploration company with uranium exploration tenements in the world class Alligator Rivers Uranium Province in Arnhem Land, Northern Territory. The Alligator Rivers Uranium Province hosts nearly 1 billion pounds of high grade uranium resources and past production, including the Ranger Mine and Jabiluka. The company's flagship project is the Tin Camp Creek Project. Since listing in February 2011, the company has completed in excess of 15,000m of drilling, defined a maiden high grade, JORC compliant resource at Caramal (6.5Mlb U3O8 at 3100ppm U3O8) and discovered new mineralization at Mintaka and Orion East. High Grade mineralization also occurs at the historic South Horn and Gorrunghar prospect which remain only partially tested.
The company has in excess of 1000km2 of Exploration Licence applications and is also in Joint Venture with Cameco Australia Pty Ltd for the Mamadawerre Project, also within the Alligator Rivers Uranium Province
