TREK METALS
Trek Metals Limited (“TKM” or “Company”) has entered into a share sale agreement to purchase 100% of TM Resources Pty Ltd which holds four exploration tenement applications in the Northern Territory known as the Lawn Hill Project. The tenements contain highly prospective geology with the potential to host large scale sediment hosted zinc-lead deposits similar in style to the World Class Century deposit (> 150Mt @ 8.2% Zn + 1.2 % Pb + 33g/t Ag).

Summary
Rocks of the Lawn Hill Platform, hosting the Century Zinc Deposit to the south-east of the tenement applications in Queensland (Figure 1) are mapped across much of the tenement applications that form the Lawn Hill Project. In addition to being correlated with the rocks hosting Century, the Fickling Group sediments within the Lawn Hill Project can also be correlated with those of the McArthur Group which contain one of the World’s largest sediment hosted base metal deposits at McArthur River (HYC Deposit, > 200Mt @ 13% Zn+Pb).
​
Almost No Previous Exploration
Previous exploration has been sparse across the tenement applications with only one major phase of work being completed during the 1980’s. This work was very broad-brushed and resulted in only two drillholes being completed.
​
Numerous Zn, Cu and Pb occurrences are described on the Queensland side of the border (Figure 2), including the Walford Creek Project (73 Mt @ 1.4% Cu eq) currently being explored by Aeon Metals Limited, with nothing on the Northern Territory side, due, simply, to a lack of exploration.
​
