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 />
