Peel Exploration Limited (ASX:PEX) Quarterly Report For The Period Ending 30 September 2009

Perth, Nov 2, 2009 AEST (ABN Newswire) - During the quarter, Peel Exploration Limited (ASX:PEX) announced it had reached conditional agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the May Day gold-base metal deposit from Imperial Corporation Ltd (ASX:IMP). The May Day gold-base metal deposit (comprising a 100 hectare mining lease - ML1361), is located approximately 100km south of the mining town of Cobar in central NSW. Peel also lodged an exploration licence application (ELA3776) covering approximately 84 km2, encompassing the May Day deposit.

May Day was discovered in 1898 and was initially developed as an underground copper-lead-silver mine. Exploration in the 1970s identified high grade gold-base metal mineralisation to a depth of about 250m below surface. Exploration in the late 1980s defined a shallow gold resource, which eventually lead to the development in 1996 of a small-scale mining operation comprising an open pit with a heap leach gold circuit. No drilling directly targeting the May Day Deposit has been completed since 1989.

Peel believes that the May Day deposit offers excellent potential to be rapidly advanced to development. Desktop studies indicate substantial gold-base metal mineralisation immediately below the historic open pit, with deeper drillhole intersections demonstrating depth continuance of high-grade gold-base metal mineralisation. Peel plans to complete a full dataset compilation, followed by an extensional drilling programme, in order to commence resource definition.

The May Day deposit exhibits similarities to the nearby Hera gold-base metal deposit (1.8 Mt at 6.7 g/t Au, 0.2% Cu, 2.5% Pb, 2.8% Zn, 14 g/t Ag) which YTC Resources Ltd (ASX:YTC) recently acquired for A$12 million. Peel considers the May Day deposit to potentially represent the upper levels of large-scale Cobar-style mineralisation such as CSA, Peak and Endeavor.

The terms of the sale agreement will see consideration of 2.75 million fully paid ordinary Peel shares and replacement of the environmental bond relating to ML1361 (A$43,000) in exchange for the full transfer of ML1361 to Peel. Conditions of the agreement include the completion of due diligence investigations and the renewal of ML1361.
