HALF YEARLY REPORT 2019
NEW TALISMAN GOLD | 3

Rehabilitation work to provide access to the Dubbo and Mystery areas

at Talisman was substantively completed in the last quarter of FY2018.

The primary effort in the first half of the 2019 financial year has been

directed towards securing a means of processing the ore produced at

the mine. This has involved procurement, consenting and operation of

a pilot processing plant to verify previous metallurgical testwork results.

The ability to replicate the results is of primary importance to the consent,

design and commissioning of a commercial scale gold processing plant

capable of processing the mines planned output.

Phase 1 of the testwork has been successfully completed and has proven

that recovery of 64% of contained gold into 15% of the ore mass is

reliably achievable through the gravity circuit. An average feed grade

of approximately 10g/t yielded a primary concentrate of approximately

40g/t from the centrifuge. This concentrate can be further upgraded by

passing it over the shaker table. 40kg of primary concentrate was treated

in two batches yielding 650g and 600g of secondary concentrate at

grades of 989g/t gold and 4,120g/t silver, and 876g/t gold and 2800 g/t

silver respectively.While further optimisation of the process is planned

these results are sufficient to underpin the design and procurement of a

suitable, commercial scale plant.

Phase 2 of the metallurgical testwork which aims to gather data on the

plant outputs sufficient to meet council requirements for a resource

consent for a larger volume plant, has commenced. The sampling from

processing small quantities of various ore grades will ensure sufficient

sample size for ore treatment data to be collected and included as part

of final plant application.

Once the required data is sufficient, final design work can be carried out

for the larger gravity plant. Initial design work is underway with Terra Firma

who have expressed interest in working with the company to develop a

larger capacity plant and, with completion of Phase 1, both parties are

now in a position to progress discussions on commercial terms.


Other efforts have focused on the detailed design and costing of the short

decline system from BM35 crosscut to access the extension of the Dubbo

shoot approximately 7m below number 8 level. A key risk identified in

this process is the potential for encountering unknown excavations below

8 Level. In order to quantify those risks NTL has aligned with a local

company to investigate the possibility of deploying digital electro seismic

mapping underground to identify possible extensions of the vein systems

within the mine and to assist with the mapping of unknown excavations.

If successful, this innovative approach will greatly assist with identifying

exploration opportunities and aid mine planning.

Work also continues on the planning and costings to attain a resource

consent application for full mining in line with the 15 years remaining on

the mine permit . The NZ political climate towards the minerals industry

continues to be ambiguous with a bias towards the negative, and highlights

the importance of ongoing security of tenure to ensure continuity of the

operation on completion of the bulk sampling programme.

During the period the company progressed discussions with a number of

parties who have approached the company on the Talisman Mine project,

once the initial metallurgical testwork and independent review of the

resource estimate currently underway is complete the board will be in a

better position to contemplate commercial proposals.

Metallurgical Testwork Pilot Plant

Resource consent for operation of the pilot plant was granted in early July. The plant was commissioned

shortly after that and processing of samples taken from the Talisman Mine commenced early in the

September quarter.

The pilot plant comprises scaled-down processing units (jaw crusher, rod mill, centrifuge, shaker table)

that replicate the operations of a commercial plant to the same design as was used in metallurgical

testwork carried out in South Africa,

The process schematic is shown below.

As detailed in previous announcements (please see https://www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20190920/

pdf/448ph1pf0k83hn.pdf) The process for separating metals from ore extracted from the Talisman Mine,

as advised by Peacock and Simpson, to suit the very fine (sub 150 micron) grain size at which gold can

be most efficiently recovered is as follows:

1. Ore is passed through the crusher which breaks it down to sub 10mm particle sizes;

2. The crushed ore is passed through the rod mill where steel rods in a rotating drum break it down

further to sub 150-micron sizes;

3. The ground ore is passed through a 150 micron screen before entering the centrifuge which rotates

at between 25,000 and 50,000 rpm and uses the gravitational forces generated by that rotation to

trap the heavier metallic elements into a primary concentrate while discharging the lighter clay and

silica particles to waste;

4. The primary concentrate is passed over the shaker table which uses the effect of differing specific

gravity to further separate metals from host minerals resulting in a cleaner secondary concentrate.

Testwork Results

Phase 1 of the testwork is now complete and the results have demonstrated that the recovery rates

achieved by Peacock can be replicated and as such met the basis for proceeding with gravity-based

treatment of the ore. Recovery rates as high as 72% were achieved with an average above 60%. It is

expected that further optimisation of the pilot plant, primarily through increasing the capacity of the

centrifuge during phase 2 testwork, recovery rates will continue to improve with an aim of achieving an

average of 73%.

Grind size

Grind size achieved in the phase 1 testwork was successful in confirming the grind size for Talisman mine

ore of under 100 micron is required for achieving optimal recovery rates using gravity.

Previous testwork has indicated that a grind size of 106 μm is sufficient to liberate the electrum (gold/

silver alloy) from host rock.

The technical team were delighted with the results of the initial grind test work upon which is the one

of major deliverables required to finalise the metallurgical process to be used in a larger scale plant.

The completion of the grind testworks allows for the final designs for ore crushing and grinding circuit

are well underway.

Gold Recovery

The major component in completing phase 1 testwork was the % of gold recovered in order to confirm

the results of testwork completed overseas can be replicated in field settings at a plant scale and can

produce the data of required size to base the design of a larger scale plant to meet the production

planned during bulk sampling. This is achieved in 2 areas Primary recovery and concentrate.

Primary Recovery

In order to quantify the effectiveness of gold recovery into the primary concentrate a total of nine test

batches were run, six on ore sourced from the Dubbo Zone and three from Mystery. The results are as

follows:

• On average 64% of the gold and 38% of the silver is recovered into 15% of the ore i.e. each tonne

of ore treated yields 150kg of concentrate;

• The average feed grade for Maria Ore was 10.05 g/t and for the Mystery Vein 9.61g/t both measured

through sampling of mill output;

• Concentrate grade of 41.5g/t was achieved for the Maria vein and 40.7g/t for the Mystery Vein;

• There was no significant difference in recovery between the two ore types;

• There was considerable variance between batches, with gold recovery ranging between 48% and

79% for Maria ore, and between 56% and 78% for Mystery ore. There is no relationship between

feed grade and recovery, so this variance is attributable to the presence of coarse gold.

The results prove that the process is capable of producing a concentrate that can be sold directly to a

third-party operator with the above specifications exceeding the minimum specifications [provided to

the company by a NZ buyer of gold concentrate.

Secondary Concentrate processing testwork

Testing of the effectiveness of further processing primary concentrate over the shaker table was

quantified in phase 1 through the treatment of approximately 40kg of primary concentrate in two

batches which yielded 650g and 600g of secondary concentrate at grades of 989g/t gold and 4,120g/t

silver, and 876g/t gold and 2800 g/t silver respectively. High levels of other metals such as iron, copper

and zinc are reported in the concentrate. Further data will be sampled as phase 2 metallurgical testwork

required to gain additional data which will form the basis for an application for final plant consent.

It is important to note as a New Zealand company New Talisman can acquire land for use in its activities

without further OIO approvals required by a foreign owned company.

HALF YEARLY REPORT 2019
NEW TALISMAN GOLD | 7

Phase 1 of the metallurgical testwork has successfully achieved commercial recovery rates of optimal

grind size of the equipment. Whilst improving on those results is of importance the primary focus of

phase 2 is test work on the outputs of metals concentrate, bullion and sand processed from the ore

(which can be used in a variety of building and civil works applications ) with the data from further

batches processed through the pilot plant forming the basis for the higher volume plant design consent

and construction.

Talisman Underground

operations

Design and costing of the decline

from BM35 crosscut to access the

Dubbo shoot approximately 7m

below number 8 level is well under

way. The decline, which will be

developed on vein where possible,

aims to intersect a high-grade ore

block in the area intersected by

borehole TM002, drilled by NTL

in 2004, which averaged 85g/t and

117g/t Ag over a 1.0m intersection

on the Maria vein( please see https://

www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20170712/

pdf/43kl6294htcscp.pdf for further

details).

HALF YEARLY REPORT 2019

The decline can then be extended downwards in 7m lifts progressively exposing more of the ore body

for sampling and delineation of extractive blocks. The work completed during the bulk sampling phase

creates a solid platform for the Company’s full scale mine plans contemplated in the Prefeasibility Study.

Underground 3d Mapping of Dubbo

A key risk to this work programme is the potential occurrence of unknown excavations in the area. In order

to quantify and mitigate these risks the company has aligned with ATS, a local company to investigate

the possibility of deploying digital electro seismic mapping underground to identify possible extensions

of the vein systems within the mine and to assist with the mapping of unknown excavations. A beta test

of the technology application for the Talisman mine is underway and results have shown promise. This

technology is traditionally used for aquifer mapping, but an initial test has indicated that the system can

potentially be adapted to work in the underground environment. A detailed test regime was developed

to enable seismic readings to be correlated with known features identified in exploration boreholes

which will allow the equipment to be calibrated to interpret the Talisman Mines geological environment.

If successful, this innovative approach will greatly assist with identifying exploration opportunities and

aid mine planning.

Figure 4 - Seismic Survey testing

Mystery Vein

Updating of the mineral resource estimate for the Mystery vein, compliant with JORC 2012 reporting

standards, is progressing well. The estimate will inform further development and exploration of this

vein system which poses the most significant potential for mine expansion given the positive results

achieved on proving the extension of high-grade gold and silver mineralization.

The Mystery Vein was discovered in the 1980’s and sits approximately mid-way between the historically

productive Maria and Crown vein systems. It is believed that this vein had not been identified previously

because of its location on the boundary between the two historic mining permits, although there is

evidence that the vein may have been encountered in the lower levels of the Talisman Mine. The vein

HALF YEARLY REPORT 2019
NEW TALISMAN GOLD | 9

has been exposed over a strike length of some 50m and regular sampling carried out by New Talisman

(then called Heritage Gold) identified samples on the face of Mystery with grades of up to 50 g/t. Recent

check sampling of ore exposed at the drive face yielded grades of up to 40 g/t Au (please see https://

www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20180508/pdf/43tvlpmv420f4f.pdf. )

Corporate

During the period after analysis of the commercial data available following phase 1 , Terra Firma Limited

expanded the original proposal to include a number of commercial options including both contract

mining and processing. These are being further advanced as the data from the pilot plant has provided

the finer details upon which to base any commercial terms.

Annual Review Meeting

In September 2019 the company completed its annual review meeting with NZPAM. At that meeting the

agreed work programme for the previous 12 months had been completed. Stakeholders who attended

the meeting were most supportive of the progress made and compliance with the permit conditions

confirmed.

Looking Ahead

• Peer review of Talisman resource expected to be completed by year end.

• Completion of the costings and timings for lodgement of full mine consent aligned

with the 15 years remaining on the permit is expected by end April.

• The detailed planning and design work for the decline development into the Dubbo

area is progressing well and will be completed over the next quarter

• Completion of larger scale plant design following completion of phase 2 pilot plant

testwork.
