Dr Chris Baker April 2019 LEFROY EXPLORATION LTD LEX:AU, $0.20. Market cap A$16.2 m Air core results confirm two gold trends under Lake Lefroy Recent site visit confirms prospectivity of other LEX targets - Gold Fields has released its first tranche of drill results from air core drilling on the LEX-JV, east of the world class St Ives gold project. - Results confirm the existence of two gold-anomalous trends beneath Lake Lefroy. - The immediate target is a 3km zone along the inferred Woolibar Fault centred on the Zanex prospect. - The Eastern Shoreline Trend has identified a +3km zone of gold anomalism. - Both trends are worthy of follow-up with RC or diamond drilling, likely to happen in 2H19 - LEX will continue to focus on Lucky Strike and other 100%-owned projects to the east of Lake Lefroy. A 2000m RC/diamond programme is currently underway. - LEX is a very inexpensive WA exploration play strongly leveraged to GFI’s aggressive exploration programme on Lake Lefroy, and to exploration within its 100%-owned tenements in the Mt Monger area. Expect plenty of exploration news over the rest of the year. Warm colours (red/purple) signify higher gold grades. Source: From ASX release 15 April 2019 LEFROY EXPLORATION (ASX: LEX) | Research report FIRST EXPLORATION RESULTS FROM THE GOLD FIELDS JOINT VENTURE LEX holds tenements covering nearly 600km2 to the east of and adjoining Gold Fields’s 100%-owned St Ives gold mine and were recently joint ventured with Gold Fields (GFI).
