Harmony intersects highly significant copper gold mineralisation in PNG
exploration program
Johannesburg. 11 March 2015. Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited advises that it has
intersected a highly significant zone of copper-gold mineralisation at the Kili Teke Exploration
Prospect on one of its exclusively owned exploration licence areas in Papua New Guinea.
Initial diamond drill testing of the Kili Teke prospect is currently underway. Assays received
from the first 4 holes have all returned broad porphyry style copper gold intercepts with
mineralisation extending to surface. The mineralisation contains higher grade intervals of
copper-gold mineralisation up to 202m @ 0.74% Cu and 0.57g/t Au. At this stage the
mineralisation remains open through the drill pattern over 500m, and at depth. The following
intercepts have been recorded:
KTDD004:
38m @ 0.28% Cu, 0.17 g/t Au from surface
KTDD005:
255m @ 0.24% Cu, 0.15 g/t Au from 146m
KTDD006:
259m @ 0.35% Cu, 0.26 g/t Au from 172m
KTDD007:
422m @ 0.55% Cu, 0.43 g/t Au, from 131m
Including
202m @ 0.74% Cu, 0.57g/t Au, from 137m
“Our current resources are finite and it is essential to have a project pipeline that balances
early-stage and more immediate prospects so as to replace reserves mined,” said Harmony’s
Chief Executive Officer, Graham Briggs. “In an environment where there is very little being
spent on exploration and with the paucity of new major copper and gold discoveries, the results
coming from this grassroots prospect are very encouraging. Given the extent of the surface
copper-gold geochemical footprint yet to be tested, there is potential to develop this find into a
major copper-gold deposit similar to Golpu, OK Tedi or Frieda River which have resource cut-
off grades of/around 0.2% Cu. New discoveries are one of the best avenues to create
shareholder value.”
