Porphyry Copper-Gold Drill Target Defined at Glenlogan
S2 Resources identifies compelling geophysical drill target
Highlights
•
Recently completed ground geophysics has highlighted an untested anomaly located on the northeast
flank of the main magnetic anomaly at the Glenlogan Projectiii.
•
The survey was a combined Tensor Induced Polarisation (TIP) and Magnetotelluric (MT) surveyiii.
•
The anomaly is characterised by semi-coincident conductive, chargeable and resistive zones on the
shoulder of the interpreted Ordovician aged magnetic alkaline gabbroic-diorite intrusioniii.
•
The anomaly is northeast of the drill hole completed in mid-2024 which identified i:
o
300m of increasing quartz-diorite porphyry (QDP) dykes, hydrothermal alteration and
disseminated pyrite to end-of-hole.
o
increasingly anomalous levels of copper, gold and other chalcophile/pathfinder elements
o
widespread presence of very fine-grained late magmatic/hydrothermal chalcopyrite
intergrown with propylitic-style alteration assemblage.
•
These features may represent the fringes of a nearby potentially mineralised and undrilled porphyry
that sits 55km southwest of the globally significant Cadia-Ridgeway deposits within the Macquarie Arc.
•
Work by T. Hoschke, A. Harris and J. Hoye ii reported zones of elevated resistivity on the margins of the
Cadia-Ridgeway and North Parkes E22 porphyry copper-gold deposits respectively, and zones of high
chargeability associated with the Cadia East porphyry copper-gold deposit. These case studies provide
the Company and S2 with good support for additional geophysical surveys and drill testing.

Legacy Minerals Holdings Limited (ASX: LGM, “LGM”, “the Company” or “Legacy Minerals”) is pleased to
report an update on geophysical results at the Glenlogan Project (EL9614) completed by earn-in partner S2
Resources Ltd (S2R) iv.

Management comment – Legacy Minerals CEO & Managing Director, Christopher Byrne said:
“We are very pleased to report that a compelling porphyry Cu-Au geophysical drill target has been defined
by the S2 team. The target sits off the shoulder of the large alkalic intrusion drilled mid last year and northeast of the first drill hole which intercepted large zones of hydrothermal alteration with characteristics
consistent with porphyry copper-gold style alteration.
The implication of this drilling is that we may be near a potentially mineralised porphyry intrusion which is
further suggested by the recently completed geophysics. The target now presents a clear focus for future
work and a detailed dipole-dipole IP survey is intended to be completed prior to drill testing.
We look forward to updating our shareholders on the project as it progresses.”

Key Joint Venture Termsiv
•
•
•
S2 can spend $6 million over 5 years to earn a 70% interest in EL9614 in two stages:
o Stage 1 – $2 million over 2 years to earn a 51% interest; and
o Stage 2 – $4 million over 3 years to earn a further 19% interest.
Minimum commitments include 1,200m of diamond drilling in Stage 1 and 8,000m in Stage 2.
At the decision to progress towards mining and completion of stage 2, Legacy Minerals has the
option:
o to retain it its 30% interest level and contribute or be diluted or;
o be 20% loan-carried with interest to be repaid through future production revenue.
