RE:Cobbler's Gold - YarraloolaI've added the
CZR - Shepherds Well prospect to the map.
HIGHLIGHTS
Soils (-2mm) underlying basalts at the base of the Fortescue Group report gold (between 5 ppb and 737 ppb) over 23km at Shepherds Well, representing an emerging target for coarse-grained “melon-seed” gold in conglomerate in the Pilbara.
The horizon on E08/2361 maps an ancient topography of ridges along with broad and narrow valleys. Higher numbers of samples and higher grades of gold are reported from the broad valleys.
Coziron has an advanced understanding of the prospective targets and exploration techniques that can effectively explore areas with prospectivity for conglomeratic gold in the Pilbara.
Future work will systematically map and sample the interval under the basalts at the base of the Fortescue Group investigating opportunities for conglomeratic rocks with “melon-seed” gold particles in ancient valleys at Shepherds Well.
Coziron is also reviewing the distribution of gold on its other tenements located in the Pilbara that host the Fortescue Group to identify targets along the basal contact with the potential to host coarse-grained “melon-seed” gold in conglomerate.

Soil-based Gold Results (max 1.75g/t) from Cobblers Prospect HIGHLIGHTS
- Gridded soil sampling on a 200m by 50m spacing has identified a gold anomaly over 2km long and 1km wide reporting a peak Au value of 1.75g/t.
- Soil-based gold anomaly overlies a sequence of pillow-basalts within more massive units of the Fortescue Basalts on the eastern part of the Yarraloola Project area.
- Continued assaying of RC drill samples from the May-June programme which intersected graphitic and sulphidic shales indicates widespread gold and base-metal anomalism.
