CATALYST DISCOVERS NEW GOLD TARGET AT MINNIE CREEK
- Up to 21.5g/t Au at surface
Catalyst Metals Ltd (“Catalyst”) (ASX code: CYL) is pleased to announce further
exciting results from recent exploration at the Minnie Creek project in the
Gascoyne region of Western Australia.
The ‘Woods’ prospect was one of four new zones of gossanous outcrop
discovered during reconnaissance soil and rock geochemical surveys and
announced to the ASX on 20 September 2006.
Assay results received from 5 samples of the discovery gossan at ‘Woods’ were
significantly anomalous for gold and copper, with the gold grade ranging from
0.15g/t Au to 21.5g/t Au. Each sample was a rock grab of 1-2kg from outcrop
and details are in table 1 below.
Table 1.
The outcrop occurs as a 50m long area of massive gossan, sulphidic chert and
quartz veining exposed on the edge of a creek system, within a zone of
structurally disrupted granite expressed as an aeromagnetic geophysical
anomaly.

CR6053 7334311 377431 0.15 179
CR6054 7334336 377437 1.09 290
These gold grades are amongst the highest returned to date from the 972Km2
project area held by Catalyst, where a number of gold and polymetallic
gossans have been located since 1995. Some of the most notable gold
prospects include:
‘Neptune’ - a sulphidic vein stockwork discovered in granite returned anomalous
gold and copper values up to 7.0 g/t Au.
‘Harpo’ – an untested 1500m to 4000m long gold in soil anomaly along a
sheared and altered granite/metasediment contact.
From the perspective of the exploration potential of the Minnie Creek project
area it is very encouraging that all 5 chip samples were anomalous in gold and
copper. Nevertheless, much more work is required to determine the significance
of the zone.
In this regard these prospects will be further explored in the upcoming field
seasons in conjunction with work progressing the Minnie Springs molybdenum
prospect, where drilling is scheduled to commence shortly.
(Samples were analysed by ALS Chemex in Perth for Cu by 4-acid digest/ICPAES
finish and for Au by 30gm charge Fire Assay with AAS.)
Yours faithfully
Howard Dawson
Chairman
