HIGHLY PROSPECTIVE LARGE-SCALE PORPHYRY AND EPITHERMAL PROSPECTS.

RECENT RESULTS FROM NEARBY YANDAN PROJECT (198m @ 2.0 g/t Au and 214m @ 1.6 g/t Au) INDICATES EXCELLENT PROSPECTIVITY.
Copper Gold Porphyry Project
A highly prospective 1,912-hectare Exploration Permit for Minerals tenement situated within the Connors Arc region in Central Queensland.
Mount Clark West hosts a potentially significant geophysical anomaly, coincident with Cu-Au geochemistry. Exploration Target defined – 400Mt @ 0.4% Cu Eq to 650Mt @ 0.6% Cu Eq.
Historic exploration included 1,283m of drilling (4 holes) and 8-line km Ground IP/Resistivity.
21-line km MIMDAS geophysics survey with readings to depths of greater than 700m.
Interpretation of the geochem, geophysics and drill results suggest that the previous drillholes intersected the outer shell of a porphyry system.
FEG’s Exploration Target is based upon a hypothetical model of either a large single porphyry system or three adjacent porphyries consistent with the Cadia-North Parkes district porphyry deposits in NSW which is also located on the New England Fold Belt
POSSIBLE 3 SEPARATE PORPHYRY CENTRES
Each center represented by a resistive and low-magnetic core area. Target 3 is possible remnant mag feature. Halo of pyrite bearing alteration shell developed around each as inferred by MIMDAS survey.
Zones of high magnetics adjacent to core areas could reflect magnetite bearing (potassic) alteration closely associated with main zone of mineralization.
3 porphyry center scenario deemed more likely and is consistent with the Cadia-North Parkes district porphyry deposits in NSW.
Proposed holes 1- 8 to test drill targets located from phyllic zone through mag high.
The Independent Geologist Report into FEG’s tenements prepared by Measured Group noted:
“A similar geophysical signature is observed at the Mt Leyshon mine in QLD”.
The Mt Leyshon mine produced over 2.5M oz of gold from 1987 to 2002
