High-Grade Tungsten Resource at Attunga - 24th April 2008

Latest News:

The Board of Peel Exploration is pleased to announce the completion of a resource estimate by Geos Mining Mineral Consultants for  the Attunga Tungsten Deposit, also known as Attunga Prospect 1. The resource estimate is a global resource estimate for tungsten and molybdenum mineralisation. Results include: 1.29 Mt grading 0.61% WO3 and 0.05% Mo for 9,400t contained WO3 equivalent using 0.2% WO3 equivalent cutoff.

An expansion of mineralisation at a range of WO3 equivalent1 cutoff grades is contained below.

Peel Exploration is currently planning additional work to be undertaken over the next 3-6months including:
  • testing for extensions to the known mineralisation to the west and east of the main zone, as well as around AP1-023.
  • testing nearby tungsten targets along the contact between the Inlet Monzonite and sediments.
  • metallurgical testwork to determine likely recoveries of ore minerals.
