Peel Mining Ltd. reported a maiden Indicated & Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate for its 100% owned Wirlong copper deposit located 70km SSE of Cobar in Western NSW. The MRE provides Peel with further foundation to its copper first development strategy, adding further copper-rich resources to Peel's high-grade Mallee Bull copper deposit. Wirlong is located within Peel's 100%-owned EL8307 and EL8126. Peel was initially drawn to the area by the presence of historic copper workings, a topographic high, a >2km multi-element surface geochemical anomaly and coincident or semi-coincident magnetic (>3km), radiometric, gravity, IP and electromagnetic anomalies. Exploratory drilling at Wirlong in early 2015 identified significant primary copper mineralisation with follow-up drilling in late 2015 yielding strong copper mineralisation and confirming the potential of the prospect. Mineral Resource Estimate drilling to date has focused on a relatively confined zone covering 350m of strike of the greater prospect area. Higher grade intervals from recently reported drillhole WLDD040 were included in the MRE, however the influence of this mineralisation was moderated by its relative location on the edge of the block model. The Wirlong mineral system remains open along strike and down dip of the MRE study area and infill and extensional drilling remains ongoing at the time of reporting, with further processing of core and assay results pending for 20 drillholes. Results from drilling received beyond that included in the MRE will inform subsequent MRE updates as Wirlong continues to evolve. The MRE has been constrained and reported within mineable shapes generated at AUD 90/t NSR with a minimum mining width of three metres and includes internal dilution. The MRE for the Wirlong deposit is reported in accordance with the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves.
