1. Introduction<br />

The <strong>Kingsrose</strong> <strong>Mining</strong> Limited Sand<br />

Queen Project is a joint venture with Reed<br />

Resources Ltd over part of their Comet Vale<br />

project.<br />

The Reed Resources Ltd Comet Vale<br />

Project comprises 20 separate tenements<br />

covering an area of approximately 37 km 2<br />

is located about 100 km north-northwest<br />

of Kalgoorlie within the Norseman-Wiluna<br />

Greenstone Belt, Eastern Goldfields region,<br />

Western Australia Figure 1 (map of WA)<br />

and Figure 2. The main gold exploration<br />

targets currently being developed are<br />

extensions to and strike repetitions of the<br />

gold lode originally marked as the Sand<br />

Queen – Gladsome Mines, along a host<br />

structure referred to as the “Comet Vale<br />

Shear Zone”. The initial discovery, made<br />

in 1893, quickly led to a gold rush in the<br />

area that was followed by the discovery of<br />

a significant number of auriferous reefs, as<br />

well as, alluvial deposits that were worked<br />

by dryblowing. In addition to the Sand<br />

Queen and Gladsome mines a number of<br />

other gold mines were worked with Mines<br />

Department rewards showing that, between<br />

1910 – 1920, some 118,000 tonnes of<br />

ore was treated for a recovery of 101,675<br />

ounces of gold at an average grade of 26<br />

oz/t Au.<br />

The <strong>Kingsrose</strong> <strong>Mining</strong> Limited Farm<br />

in and Joint Venture agreement is over<br />

the underground resources of the three<br />

tenements containing the high grade<br />

portion of the ore which has been identified<br />

(currently 2007) as Indicated and Inferred<br />

Resources from the Sand George/ Sand<br />

Queen underground mine workings totals<br />

360,200 tonnes at a weighted average grade<br />

of about 12g/t Au for a recoverable 136,500<br />

ounces of gold.<br />

The tenements the subject of this joint venture are M29/321, M29/52 and Miscellaneous Licence L29/67, (the<br />

“Initial Tenements”).<br />

The Comet Vale Project comprising three tenements (M29/52,M29/321 and L29/67) covering an area of<br />

approximately 106 ha is located about 100 km north-northwest of Kalgoorlie within the Norseman-Wiluna<br />

Greenstone Belt, Eastern Goldfields region, Western Australia ( Figure 1).<br />

The current (2007) identified Indicated and Inferred Resources from all lodes the Sand George/ Sand Queen<br />

underground mine workings totals some 360,200 tonnes having a weighted average grade of approximately<br />

12g/t Au for 136,500 ounces of gold.<br />
