Panex Acquires Crackerjack Gold Project in the Kimberley Mineral Field,
Western Australia and Invests A$500,000 in Burey Gold Limited
Cape Town, South Africa – December 3, 2015 – Panex Resources Inc. (the "Company," or "Panex") (OTC Pink DBGF) is pleased to announce that it has acquired a 100% interest in the Crackerjack Gold Project, Halls Creek, Western Australia located within the highly prospective Kimberly Mineral Field. Gold has been intermitently mined from a number of historic workings within the licence boundary.
Crackerjack Gold Project
The Crackerjack Gold Project consists of a single, underdeveloped, granted exploration licence (EL80/4675) and is located 85km to the south west of Halls Creek, Kimberley Mineral field, Western Australia. The project area lays within the Halls Creek Mobile Belt, which is a major deformation, multiple fault zone bounding the eastern edge of the Kimberley Craton. Gold mineralisation is focused within felsic volcanic rocks along the boundary of the Biscay and Olympio Formations where economic mines are confined to a narrow zone along their boundary over a 15km2 area. The contact zone transgresses the entire Crackerjack licence from NE to SW as shown in Figure 1.
Gold has been mined from three distinct horizons within the licence area, namely alluvial/elluvial zone at surface, gold enriched zone at the water table interface and from the primary bedrock zone. Gold mineralisation is confined to steeply dipping, small quartz fissure veins containing pyrite and small amounts of galena, sphalerite and chalcopyrite. Most of the veins are concordant with the foliation and bedding and are commonly folded. There is strong stratigraphic control on mineralisation, without exception the between the Biscay and Olympio Formations.
Gold has been historically mined over a combined strike length of 1km within the licence area, from veins averaging 1-4m in width. Gold values from channel samples taken from various workings ranged from 0.2-16.5g/t Au. Base metals and silver reported up to 11% lead, 0.4% copper and 213g/t silver. Previous explorer, Maldon Minerals NL, drilled 2 percussion and 14 RC drill holes on the project. Best results included 3m @ 3.79g/t Au, 3m @ 19.2g/t Au, 2m @ 3.98g/t Au and 2m @ 2.45 g/t Au.
The Company believes the Crackerjack Project is underexplored and has excellent potential to host moderately sized gold resources of high grade within a mining friendly jurisdiction. Once sufficient funds have been raised the Company will commence soil sampling and channel sampling programs to better define drilling targets within the area.
Placement in Burey Gold Limited
During November the Company re-invested Aud$500,000 in Burey Gold Limited where funds will be used on Burey's Giro Gold Project in Democratic Republic of Congo. Panex agreed to buy 20,000,000 New Shares with an attached Option at an Issue price of Aud$0.02 per share (or Aud$400,000), together with 20,000,000 New Options at an issue price of Aud$0.005 per New Option (or Aud$100,000) for a total of total of Aud$500,000. Options can be exercised at Aud$0.05 and expire in July 2017. Burey will pay a 5% fee for the transaction.
The Giro Gold Project comprises two exploitation permits covering a surface area of 610km² and lays within the Kilo-Moto Belt, a significant under-explored greenstone belt in NE Democratic Republic of Congo.
At the Giro and Peteku target areas, the focus of the exploration has been on drilling and geochemical sampling in areas mined historically during Belgian rule and in areas currently being mined by artisanal means. Soil sampling programmes carried out by Burey defined a >200ppb gold in soil anomaly over 2,000m x 900m, while best results from Burey's RC drilling programme over the main IP anomaly include:
o
|
GRRC058 97m at 2.56g/t Au from surface
|
o
|
GRRC075 47m at 4.13g/t Au from 25m, incl. 29m at 5.93g/t Au from
25m
|
o
|
R02 16m at 3.95g/t Au from 15m and 35m at 2.28g/t Au from
81m, incl. 13m at 4.17g/t Au from 103m
|
o
|
GRRC068 33m at 1.59g/t Au from surface and 56m at 2.39g/t Au
from 64m incl. 9m at 5.20g/t Au from 66m
|
Initial work supports a broad zone of mineralization associated with a strong NNW trending chargeability anomaly at the Kebigada target. The Giro Prospect is cross-cut by numerous high grade ENE trending structures currently mined by artisanal miners. One such vein at Peteku reported 4m at 21.7g/t Au within granite.
A major northwest trending structural corridor is interpreted to transgress both tenements over at least 30km (Figure 2). The Giro deposits mined historically lie within this corridor while a number of extensive alluvial workings were identified to the north within the structural corridor. Burey will expedite soil sampling programmes for complete coverage of the corridor to identify additional zones of mineralisation which potentially sourced gold in alluvial workings.
To the north, Belgian colonials mined two deposits on PE 5049 up to the end of the colonial era in the 1960's. These were the Mangote open pit where historic drilling results included 0.6m at 37g/t Au and 0.35m at 485g/t Au. There is no record of methods used to obtain these results. Only quartz veins were sampled historically by the Belgians although subsequent sampling of wall rock adjacent to quartz veins currently mined by artisanal miners confirmed potential for a broader zone of mineralization surrounding high grade quartz veins.
Other Events
On November 5th, 2015, Panex hired Nigel Ferguson as a consultant. Mr. Nigel Ferguson, is a senior geologist with over 29 years global experience including project generation, grass roots exploration, resource drill-outs management of feasibility studies and the listing and financing of junior exploration and development companies.
