Announcement PDF ASX ANNOUNCEMENT ASX : CXO 2nd September 2015 Core now funded to drill Yerelina and Jervois projects after SPP and Underwriting successfully raises $600,000 Core Exploration Limited (ASX: CXO) is pleased to announce that the Company’s shareholder Share Purchase Plan (SPP) and underwriting has successfully raised $600,000. These funds will be immediately applied to two exciting drilling campaigns underway this month in SA and NT. Core Exploration will have two drilling campaigns underway during September in some of the most prospective geological terrains for base metals and uranium in Australia. Core’s 1,000m diamond drilling program is commencing this week on the Yerelina Zinc Project in SA. The diamond core holes will be targeted under the known outcropping high grade zinc mineralisation identified by Core in mineralised breccia and surface gossans hosted within fault zones interpreted to be up to 1.5km long. Core is also planning to commence a 4,000m RC/RAB drilling campaign in September on the Company’s Jervois Domain Project in NT. 14 potential drill targets have been identified within a 15km strike length of the prospective Big-J fold. The high priority targets have a range of geophysical characteristics consistent with the Sedex/VHMS style of copper mineralisation identified at KGL’s nearby Jervois project. Diamond drilling at Yerelina Zinc Project in SA is expected to take 3-4 weeks to complete with assay results expected to start arriving during October. Core has also been awarded a grant of $75,000 for this drilling as part of the SA Government’s PACE Discovery Drilling 2015 program. Core’s Jervois Domain drilling in NT is commencing in late September and assay results are expected to start arriving toward the end during October. KGL has also recently announced plans to commence drilling of new geophysical targets in the Bellbird area at Jervois.
