Labyrinth is pleased to announce that it has signed an Option Agreement with Rocktivity whereby Orminex West Pty Ltd (“Orminex”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Labyrinth, will, subject to paying the relevant fee under the Option Agreement and Labyrinth obtaining all necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals and confirmations, be granted an Option to acquire 100% of Olympio’s Mulwarrie and Mulline projects in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia (“Projects”).
- Labyrinth Resources Limited (“Labyrinth” or “the Company”) has signed a binding option agreement (“Option Agreement”) with Rocktivity Gold Pty Ltd (“Rocktivity”), a wholly- owned subsidiary of Olympio Metals Limited (ASX: OLY) (“Olympio”) to be granted a 3- month call option to acquire 100% of Olympio’s Mulwarrie and Mulline projects in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia (“Option”).
- The Mulwarrie project is located ~55km west of Labyrinth’s Comet Vale Project and 10km north-west of the Davyhurst Project that is currently owned and operated by Ora Banda Mining Limited (ASX: OBM).
- The Option represents a strategic addition to Labyrinth’s portfolio and is consistent with the Company’s strategy to consolidate and grow underexplored gold tenure across the Menzies, Leonora and Leinster corridor that are close to infrastructure.
Labyrinth’s CEO, Charles Hughes, said:
“This strategic, low-cost Option aligns with our stated objective of acquiring underexplored gold tenure in the Eastern Goldfields.. We look forward to advancing the Option and creating value for shareholders with further exploration.”
The Projects comprise 3 exploration licenses (E30/511, E30/512 and E30/513) and 3 prospecting licenses (P30/1141, P30/1142 and P30/1143) (“Tenements”).
Mulwarrie Project
The Mulwarrie project (E30/511) is located 120km WNW of Kalgoorlie and lies 10km north-west of the Davyhurst Project that is currently owned and operated by Ora Banda Mining Limited (ASX: OBM). Most work conducted within and surrounding the Mulwarrie project occurred between 1982 and 1990, was conducted by Pancontinental Mining and focused on gold exploration and resource evaluation.
The Mulwarrie project has previously been covered by soil, auger soil or lag sampling. There are several strong, consistent +10ppb Au soil anomalies interpreted throughout the Mulwarrie project area. The Au soil anomalies and associated structural trends correlate with known historic prospects and geological contacts within the areas providing immediate drilling targets.
Mulline Project
The Mulline project (E30/512 and E30/513) is located a further 15km from Mulwarrie along the unsealed Davyhurst-Mulline road. The Mulline project has previously been covered by soil, auger soil or lag sampling. There are several strong, consistent +10ppb Au soil anomalies interpreted throughout the Mulline project E30/512 tenement area. The E30/512 tenement has a strong and coherent +10ppb soil anomaly that stretches over 9.2km over the same lithological sequence as seen at Mulwarrie.
