Jul. 24, 2012 - Archer Exploration Limited are pleased to provide the quarterly activities report for the period ending 30th June 2012.
EXPLORATION
GRAPHITE
Resource drilling totalling 27 RC drill holes for 2,387 metres was completed in two drill programmes at the high grade Campoona Shaft area of the Campoona graphite deposit during the Quarter.
Drilling has resulted in a nominal 50m x 20m drill coverage.
Diamond drilling at Campoona Shaft commenced on 27th June 2012 with the first hole (in progress) intersecting intense graphite mineralisation from 24m. Six diamond drill holes will provide samples across the length, breadth and depth of the deposit for metallurgical test work.
Resource drilling at Campoona Shaft is scheduled to be completed by mid-August 2012. A JORC Measured and Indicated Resource is planned for the December quarter. Resource drilling at Central Campoona will commence once the 2012 harvest has been completed.
Concentrates grading 95%TGC (Medium Flake), 96%TGC (Fine Flake) and 97%TGC (Amorphous) were produced from RC drill samples from RC drill holes into the Campoona graphite deposit.
MAGNESITE
Test work continued on samples of Leigh Creek magnesite. Calcining of HPGR samples produced high grade magnesia grading >95% MgO and ~2.5% SiO2.
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Archer completed the Sale of five West Roxby tenements to BHP Billiton Olympic Dam Corporation Pty Ltd on 22nd June 2012 for a cash consideration of $8 million.
