Exploration Portfolio PERU AUSTRALIA San Mateo Mining District: Western Australia: • Minera Chanape SAC – Central Project • Mt Andrew (Ni-Cu-gold) • San Damian – Regional tenements • Mt Webb (IOCG)
Peruvian Projects Ashburton Minerals Ltd, with overwhelming shareholder approval, acquired all of the shares in unlisted Platypus Resources Ltd ( PRL ) in October 2013 through the issue of 1.75 Bn ATN shares, and changed name to Platypus Minerals Ltd ( PLP ) to reflect the change in primary focus to copper exploration in Peru.
Peruvian Projects – tenure position PRL has secured two projects in Peru: Central Project 1. Central Project (3,450 ha), surrounding Inca Minerals (ASX:ICG) through an agreement to acquire Peruvian private company Minera Chanape SAC ( MC ); and 1. San Damian Project (20,000 ha), owned by PRL and held in trust for PRL by MC.

Chanape area– geology Simplified geology, highlighting multi-phase intrusive and volcanic activity, and continuity of Chanape features into Platypus ground. Inca Minerals Ltd Chanape porphyry ‘discovery’ hole, CHDDH01: 380m – 600m (EOH), 220m @ 0.13% Cu, 120ppm Mo. Drilled through porphyry copper style alteration zone. ( Inca Minerals Ltd presentation, 13 March 2013 ).
Chanape area - geophysics Magnetics at 375 m Chargeability at depth. The annulus 150 m depth, might represent a highlighting concentration of predominant NE- magnetite in a zone SW trends in the of propylitic general area. alteration ( High Ridge, 2008 ). surrounding a porphyry deposit. ( High Ridge data, remodelled by Inca Minerals. Inca Minerals ASX release 30 November 2012 ). Geophysical data over the Chanape area shows continuity of prospective features into MC (Platypus) ground.
Inca extensions Example of extension of mineralisation from Inca’s ground into the Platypus ground includes recent surface rock chip sampling in the NE corner. Gold grades of 31.6 g/t, 13.7 g/t and 19.4 g/t occur adjacent to boundary, with regional NE-SW structural trends promoting continuity to the NE into Platypus ground. (Inca Minerals Ltd Quarterly Report September 2013).
Central Project – Platypus Targets In addition to targeting the obvious continuations of Chanape mineralisation, Platypus will initially investigate two priority targets wholly within its own ground, and Shullac separate to Chanape: 1. Cerro Molle – a large alteration anomaly 2. Shullac – a broad area of epithermal mineralisation associated with several artisanal silver-lead-zinc mines.
Cerro Molle – visible from satellite Modelling of Aster satellite spectral data by MC suggests the presence of a separate, and larger, porphyry target at Cerro Molle within the northwest part of the Platypus tenements.
Shullac Mine The Shullac mine veins are hosted within a mineralized breccia and lie on the NE-SW trend typical of the general Chanape area. Surface rock chip sampling within the Minera Chanape (Platypus) ground at Shullac returned up to: 1.0 g/t Au 45.8 g/t Ag The main portal at the Shullac 2.17% Pb mine provides access to 12.25% Zn workings throughout the 0.14% of Cu . mine area.
