This infill drilling on 20 metre centres confirmed the predicted NI 43-101 inferred resource estimate from the AMC Consultants Pty. Ltd.'s 2014 geology block model. Grade and thicknesses have approximately a 92% and 97%, respectively, correlation between the drilling and the AMC block model within the same boundaries.
This extremely close correlation of resource estimates from infill drilling and predicted results from the block model are relatively rare. With these initial results, Woulfe's confidence is significantly increased that AMC's NI 43-101 Inferred Resources are as stated to date and the current and future drilling will upgrade them to the indicated resource category.
The eight diamond drill holes confirmed a well-defined resource of 419,000 tonnes at a grade of 0.66% WO3 in the HW Deposit.
These extremely encouraging results from the Phase 6 Drilling Programme are from drilling in one area of AMC's approximately 11 million tonnes of Inferred Resources. Woulfe will only re-assess the conversion rate of Inferred Resources to potentially mineable resources when a number of areas within the Inferred Resources have been drill tested and correlated to the AMC 2014 block model.
Until new reserves, potentially mineable resources or other project related metrics are announced, Woulfe will continue to rely on the financial returns predicted in the December 17, 2014 press release.
