Quarterly Report - Period Ending 31 December 2019
Highlights Collerina Copper Project – NSW
❑ The next phase of RC drilling targeting new zones of high grade copper commenced in
December. Drilling is testing extensions to copper mineralisation surrounding the
Maiden Resource Estimate block model.
o Maiden Resource of 2.02Mt at @2.03% Cu and 0.1g/t Au (Indicated and Inferred) refer
table A in Appendix 1. Currently 40kt contained copper – open in multiple directions.
❑ Ongoing drill program is designed to prove scale and increase the resource base within the
broader Exploration Target* in order to advance Collerina toward initial economic studies.
o Exploration Target* additional 2- 5Mt at similar grades (1.5-3% Cu)* to a depth of 450m
from surface at Collerina (refer ASX announcement 11 June 2019).
o Key events for first half of 2020: drilling, initial metallurgical testing and preliminary mine
studies to support a subsequent Resources Estimate upgrade.
❑ Regional auger soil surveys continue targeting additional copper systems along the Collerina
Copper Trend.
o First-pass auger soil samples collected covering the Tindalls, Widgelands and Collerina
South areas. Initial results have highlighted several new copper trends requiring urgent
follow-up.
o A further 110 samples were collected on the Homeville trend. Results are pending.
o Forward program includes infill soil auger sampling and prioritising of Collerina Trend
regional targets for initial drill testing in 2020 field season.
Regional Prospects – NSW
❑ Rochford Prospect: Scout mapping undertaken on extensions of previously reported pXRF
readings of brecciated ironstone sub-crop samples that returned Cu (up to 0.17%), Pb (up to
0.18%) and Bi (up to 0.12%).
o Additional ironstone subcrop and prospector pits discovered 1.5km along strike, nearby
to first-pass auger soil samples returning anomalous copper readings in pXRF (up to
580ppm Cu).
o Further mapping, infill auger sampling and surface geophysics planned to prioritise
areas for first-ever drilling at Rochford in 2020 program.
Samuel Project – Chile
❑ A 1250m fully JOGMEC funded DDH drilling program recently completed at Samuel Project.
JOGMEC has approved additional US$315,000 budget to the end of March 2020.
❑ Comprised an 800m, first ever deep hole, testing a large copper porphyry target in the
southern portion of the Project area, and a 450m hole testing copper mineralisation
prospective for Manto or IOCG-style copper systems.
❑ Drilling has intersected copper bearing sulphides and strong alteration, in favourable
geological settings in both holes. Core has recently been logged, photographed and cut for
assay. Results are pending
Joshua Project – Chile
❑ Helix retains 100% ownership of the Joshua. The Joshua Project is one of several projects
being showcased by the Chilean Mines Department at PDAC in March 2020.
Corporate
❑ The Company raised $1m in a placement to fund drilling in NSW and working capital.
*Cautionary Statement: Whilst the near-surface strike continuity and geological controls of the Collerina mineralisation are well understood. The potential
quantity and grade of the Exploration Target remains conceptual until drill tested. Geophysical and structural evidence is present to provide confidence in
the geometry and dimensions, however, there has been insufficient drilling within these plunge extensions to estimate Mineral Resources in the broader
shape to date. Therefore it should be considered uncertain if further exploration drilling will result in defining additional Mineral Resources within the broader
Collerina Deposit extensions.

Quarterly Activities
Collerina Copper Project – NSW
The current drilling program is aiming to drill test extensions to copper mineralisation in the Exploration
Target surrounding the initial Maiden Resource Estimate wireframe at the Collerina Copper Deposit.
Drilling Program
Down-Dip Plunge Parallel Target
A significant outcome from this phase of drilling is the intersection of massive, semi-massive and
disseminated copper sulphide mineralisation in targeted zones approximately 180m down-dip from the
resource wireframe of the Central Zone. This is consistent with the revised geological and structural model
and provides real scope to increase the scale of Collerina mineralisation as drilling continues. Selected
zones have been sampled and sent to the Laboratory for assay.
DHEM surveys will be undertaken in selected holes to assist in vectoring toward further zones of massive
sulphide accumulation on this new (and open) emerging copper zone.
Figure 1: Schematic long section of the Collerina Copper Deposit showing the initial exploration target corridor (blue shape), with high
priority targets surrounding the Maiden Resource (yellow shape).Current drilling campaign (Red traces), have intersected zones of
massive, semi-massive and stringer copper sulphide in the Plunge Parallel Target from shallow depths.
Northwest Extension
The drilling also tested the northwest extension of the Collerina Deposit. This extension is coincident with
an airborne/moving loop EM trend and is trending toward a bulls-eye magnetic feature.
A previously drilled hole, CORC036 located on the western edge of the Collerina Deposit, intersected
broad oxide copper mineralisation returning 23m @ 0.5% Cu from 37m, including individual 1m intervals
of up to 3.6% Cu (from 56-57m) for oxidised (weathered) copper mineralisation¹.
Holes drilled on this extension have intersected zones of oxide and transition copper mineralisation
(including native copper) in two fence lines of drilling. This extends the known Collerina mineralised
system by approximately 150m to the west/northwest.
Significantly, drilling is vectoring toward a magnetic anomaly a further 190m WNW of the recent drilling.
This magnetic feature is interpreted as a possible feeder structure, and was recently modelled as a pipe-

like body dipping steeply to the north (70-80 degrees) and modelled from a depth of 50-60m below
surface. A drill hole is now being planned to test this zone at the end of the current drilling phase.
Figure 2: Schematic Plan showing location of current drill traces (red lines) from initial program targeting shallow extensions and parallel
positions in the Exploration Target (blue shape) surrounding the Maiden Resource wireframe (yellow shape) overlain on aeromagnetic
image. Magnetic feature has been modelled as a north dipping cylindrical feature (possible VMS feeder feature?). Insert image shows
native copper flecks intersected at 66m downhole in a 10m mineralised zone from 58m in the second hole of the current program.
This extension zone remains open to the west-northwest. Further drilling is planned after the DHEM
surveys to test the plunge and dip of this zone deeper into fresh rock. Similar oxide widths and copper
grades improved significantly below 80m from surface in the nearby Central Zone.
Footwall Target Zone
A broad zone of oxide copper mineralisation has been observed in a hole drilled approximately 40m W-
SW of CORC009 (53m @ 0.5%Cu from surface, incl. 5m @ 4.2% Cu from 48m to EOH). Copper oxides
were observed in hematised sediments from 4m to 60m in the new hole before transitioning into a
laminated cherty horizon. The host geology is similar to the Central Zone, however appears to be
overturned, consistent with a fold closure.
This possible footwall fold position is poorly drill tested down dip/plunge. This new intersection of oxide
copper mineralisation may represent the near surface expression of an off-hole DHEM conductor below
the Central Zone that was identified in earlier drilling at the deposit. This position could represent another
fold thickening zone of sulphide accumulation plunging parallel in the footwall of the Central Zone of the
Collerina Deposit.
Figure 3: Schematic Plan showing location of the footwall Target; plunge of this position is poorly drill tested to date

DHEM Surveys
Downhole Electromagnetics (DHEM) is an effective tool for targeting thicker higher grade the copper
sulphide at Collerina.
Helix is continuing to use DHEM to vector drilling toward zones of massive sulphide accumulation as the
drill program progresses. A program to survey strategic holes in the recently completed initial program
is underway in January 2020.
Figure 4: Recent Soil Auger on Collerina Copper Trend with copper in soil anomalies emerging from ongoing regional soil programs. New copper targets areas circled in yellow.
Region Auger Soil Programs
Regional auger sampling has outlined four brand new copper targets, along the Collerina Trend. Initial portable
XRF (pXRF) readings* form coherent copper-in-soil anomalies at each prospect (refer Figure 4).
These copper anomalies are coincident with geological/structural targets and are supported by
geophysics(magnetics and airborne EM) including:
• At Collerina South, copper-in-soil anomalism coincides with intense folding in the SE extension of the
Collerina Deposit host rocks;
• At Widgelands NE, a copper anomaly has been identified where the Collerina Trend splits into the
regionally extensive host trends containing both the Tritton Mine and Kurrajong Deposit
• At Tindalls, a 1km long copper-in-soil anomaly coincides with untested copper workings and two
historic mine shafts
![Page 5: NSW - Helix...o Exploration Target* additional 2- 5Mt at similar grades (1.5-3% Cu)* to a depth of 450m from surface at Collerina (refer ASX announcement 11 June 2019). o Key events](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050123/5f52e9c97b579439ce3b9a10/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Ongoing Collerina Programs
Further auger soil sampling is continuing over the summer period, testing areas including the Homeville Trend
extension, a trend north of the Collerina Deposit.
During the pause in drilling over the festive period, 110 samples were collected on the Homeville Trend
extension, considered a priority geological setting for a Collerina-style repeat mineralised system. Results from
this recent work are pending.
Up to 2000 additional samples are expected to be collected during this next phase of regional sampling. Robust
copper-in-soil anomalous areas will be assessed, tested by surface EM surveys and prioritised for initial drill
testing.
This work continues to illustrate the high value potential targets that are being generated from within Helix’s
asset portfolio. The new prospect areas being targeted have not been subject to any modern exploration.
Regional Copper Projects – NSW
During the Quarter, scout mapping was undertaken within the 1.7km x 0.7km copper in soil anomaly called
Rochford, 7.5km SE of the Canbelego Deposit was undertaken. The prospective zone was initially identified
from a cluster of pXRF readings from the Auger soils completed in 2019, with readings of up to 580ppm Cu.
Importantly the copper anomaly is coincident with the subtle ridgeline hosting a brecciated ironstone.
Initial pXRF readings taken from the sub-cropping brecciated ironstone returned Cu (up to 0.17%), Pb (up to
0.18%), Zn (up to 0.08%) and Bi (up to 0.12%).
Figure 5: photos of gossan from locations flanking a subtle ridge line running NW, within the Rochford copper in soil anomaly.
Scout mapping has identified several additional areas where ironstones sub-crop. Including an area with an
historic prospector pit, close to an anomalous copper-in-soil reading.
Further mapping is planned in early 2020, with infill auger soils and surface geophysics also planned. A work
program for drilling at Rochford has been submitted to the mines department for approval.
The presence of the anomaly over the strike of the host ridgeline all the way to the south eastern boundary of
the tenement has led to Helix applying for a small tenement (ELA5879) directly east of EL8633. The 12 unit
application covers the extensions of this copper trend for approximately another 6km. The tenement is
expected to be granted in the first quarter of 2020.

Figure 6: New Copper Target(Rochford Prospect) – Sub-copping ironston, anomalous in Cu, Pb, Zn & Bi, approximately
7.5km southeast of the Canbelego Copper Deposit (new auger soils – squares - pXRF, previous soils – circles- Lab assays).
At the Canbelego Copper deposit (7.5km northwest), copper mineralisation is developed as structurally
controlled, sub-vertically plunging, semi-massive to massive pyrite and chalcopyrite shoots. The material noted
on surface at this new target zone, has a similar texture - brecciated iron-rich material surrounded by a matrix
of iron dominated material (refer Figure 5). The iron-rich units identified at surface, may relate to similar massive
sulphide accumulation in primary rock below.
Samuel Project – Chile
Japanese organisation and JV Partner JOGMEC has funded a further 1,250m drilling program, completed in
early January 2020, from a budget of US$435,000 (AUD$640,000). The drilling targeted a remaining target from
the Stage 2 target areas for 450m, and an 800m hole into a large porphyry target in the southern portion of
the project area. Core from these holes have been logged, photographed and cut for assay. Results from the
program are pending.
The program’s first hole was an 800m diamond hole into the Southern Porphyry target. The hole passed
through the porphyry type alteration, hosting disseminated and stringer vein copper sulphides visually
identified in the core as the hole entered the porphyry system below (Refer Figure 7). Results from this drilling
are pending.
The drilling confirms the presence of porphyry related copper mineralisation at the Samuel Project, and is the
second green-field copper porphyry system discovery by Helix in Chile.
