BLACKRIDGE GOLD PROJECT (IPT 100% and option for 95%)
1.1 Bulk Sampling
During the Quarter a first pass programme of bulk samples weighing about 8.5 tonnes in total was
collected from Impact’s Blackridge conglomerate-hosted gold project located about 30 km north of
Clermont in central Queensland (Figures 1, 2 and 3).
The samples were collected at or near the gold-bearing contact (unconformity) between an upper
younger unit of Permian conglomerates and a lower unit of schist, part of the older Anakie
Metamorphic Group (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Outcrop of free-digging conglomerate. Unconformity at base of cliff.
The samples were chosen on the basis of the presence of gold nuggets discovered by prospectors and
also for their rock mechanics properties to help determine likely processing routes for larger sampling
programmes. Three main sample types have been identified: free digging samples; hard indurated
(solid) rock; and clay-rich samples.
The majority of the samples comprise free digging material of friable conglomerate and it is evident
that large volumes of this material are present on Impact’s licences. These samples were wet processed
in a facility in Queensland and the initial results reported on October 23rd 2018. Further consideration
will be given to the other sample types in due course.
Work by companies such as Novo Resources Corporation in the emerging conglomerate-hosted gold
province of the Pilbara region of Western Australia, has shown that very large samples may need to be
processed in order to overcome the signficant “nugget effect’ that is a major factor in the exploration
for this style of deposit. Impact has shown that the nugget effect was an important factor in previous
exploration drilling at Blackridge (ASX Release May 29th 2018).
Figure 2. Examples of Sample Sites at Blackridge including samples taken from previous workings.
1.2 Purchase of Granted Mining Lease ML2386
During the Quarter Impact also acquired a 100% interest in Mining Lease ML2386 that covers about
500 metres of the gold-bearing unconformity at Blackridge (Figures 4 and 5).
The Mining Lease, which is fully granted and was acquired from a local prospector for a cash payment
of $30,000 and replacement of environmental bonds of approximately $7,000. Ministerial consent for
the purchase was recently received and the lease is now registered in Impact’s name.
The granted Lease is an excellent strategic acquisition as it allows immediate access for large bulk
samples, a key factor in determining grade in conglomerate-hosted gold deposits.
A test work programme is being designed which in the first instance will comprise trenching to expose
and map the unconformity throughout the Lease. Samples from these trenches will be processed
accordingly to determine the gold content. This will be an important first step in the search for a
mineable resource at Blackridge.
1.3 Evidence for Hydrothermal Gold at Blackridge
Previous exploration work by Denison Resources Limited (Herbert, 1989: Geology and Gold
Potential, Blackridge, Clermont, Queensland #CR20347) which included extensive RC drilling,
opening up of some of the underground workings, bulk testing, mineralogy, geochemistry and isotope
analysis suggested that some of the gold at Blackridge may be related to a delicate interplay between
sedimentary and hydrothermal processes.
A similar phenomenon has recently been proposed for some of the gold in conglomerates in the
Pilbara (unpublished public presentation by researchers working for Novo Resources Corporation).
A detailed study of Blackridge was completed in the mid 1990’s by researchers from James Cook
University in Queensland who showed that some of the gold mineralisation had indeed been derived
from hydrothermal fluids and were not transported nuggets. In particular it was documented that major
faults and veins of iron carbonate (siderite) were closely associated with the gold and that the gold had
been precipitated from hot fluids (Zhou et al Journal of Economic Geology Volume 89 pp 1469-1491).
This is an important factor in exploration for this style of deposit and a cornerstone to Impact’s
forward programme. In particular it suggests that the gold at Blackridge may have a more predictable
distribution and allow resources and reserves to be calculated in a straightforward manner.
ABOUT THE BLACKRIDGE PROJECT
The Blackridge Project is an advanced conglomerate-hosted gold project that covers the historic
Blackridge and Springs mining camps which produced about 185,000 ounces of gold from 1879 to the
early 1900’s from surface down to depths of about 70 metres in small shafts and related underground
workings (Figure 4).
Further discoveries were made in the Clermont region including the Springs field in the 1930’s and the
total production from conglomerates in the region is estimated by the Geological Survey of
Queensland to be more than 300,000 ounces of gold (ASX Release May 29th 2018).
Impact’s project covers 91 square kilometres and comprises one 100% owned Exploration Permit
(E28806) and one Exploration Permit (E26066) and four Mining Lease applications (ML 100158, 59,
60 and 61) for which Impact has an option to buy 95% from Rock Solid Holdings Pty Limited
(Figures 4 and 5; ASX Release May 29th 2018).
Figure 3. Location of the Blackridge and Clermont/Retro Projects in central Queensland.
In addition, the project also includes the newly acquired Mining Lease ML2836 which lies in the
centre of the project area (Figure 5 and ASX Release 31 August 2018)).
Figure 4. Location and geology of the Blackridge Project.
The gold produced at Blackridge was mostly hosted in basal conglomerates of Permian-aged
sedimentary basins which include the mined coal measures that unconformably overlie the Anakie
metamorphic rocks of Middle Ordovician age and older (Figures 4 and 5).
The unconformity between the conglomerates and underlying schist is present at surface over about
1,500 metres of trend at Blackridge. Much of the lease is covered by loose gravel with only a few
outcrops of conglomerate and schist in places. This cover, within which small gold nuggets have been
found by prospectors over many years, has hindered previous exploration and there has been no recent
systematic exploration in the area.
Figure 5. Location and geology of the Blackridge mining centre showing ML2386. Impact also has an
option to purchase 95% of the two mining lease applications MLA10058 and 10059. Also shown are
the collar locations of previous drill holes. This data is being compiled.
The basal conglomerates at the unconformity are reported to contain most of the gold. Average mining
grades at Blackridge were between 10 g/t and 20 g/t gold with higher grades of up to 10 ounces per
tonne (320 g/t) gold in places, for example at the Bantam shaft (Figure 3) as recorded by Lionel Ball
of the Geological Survey of Queensland. Ball completed detailed studies of the gold field at
Blackridge in a report published in 1905 (Geological Survey of Queensland Publication No. 201:
publically available).
Figure 6. Section from the Bantam shaft at Blackridge (from Ball, 1905 Geol Surv. Qld Publ. 201).
The section covers the basal two metres of a shaft about 70 metres deep.
Figure 6 is a coloured reproduction of a figure from Ball’s report showing the distribution of gold
within the basal six feet (1.8 metres) of sedimentary rock at the Bantam shaft (Figure 3). There are
high grades of gold throughout the sequence with very high grades of up to 10 ounces per tonne in the
basal conglomerate “wash” which also contains narrow units of black shale.
Progress has also been made on the grant of the four MLA’s under option from Rock Solid Holdings
Pty Ltd as well as the Compensation Agreement with the landowner. Native Title negotiations are also
underway. Work will commence on these Leases and the Exploration Licences as soon as these
arrangements are completed.

COMMONWEALTH GOLD-SILVER-BASE METAL PROJECT, N.S.W. (IPT 100%)
High grade assay results from the eight diamond drill holes completed at Impact Minerals Limited’s
(ASX:IPT) 100% owned Commonwealth Project located 100 km north of Orange in New South
Wales, have confirmed significant extensions to the mineralisation at the Main Shaft, Silica Hill and
Commonwealth South Prospects and importantly have identified a second massive sulphide body
below Main Shaft (ASX Release September 18th 2018).
The mineralisation at all Prospects is still open along trend and at depth and further drilling is required.
Figure 7. Location of new drill assays at Main Shaft and Silica Hill (yellow labels).
The Main Shaft Prospect covers the area labelled “Massive Sulphide Resource”. The Silica Hill
Prospect is in the centre of the map. The Commonwealth South Prospect lies just south of the map.
Main Shaft Massive Sulphide Unit
At Main Shaft four diamond drill holes were completed to test for extensions at depth and along trend
from the previously identified gold and silver-rich massive sulphide lens1.
All four holes intersected varying widths of massive and/or semi-massive sulphide mineralisation at
the upper eastern contact of the Commonwealth porphyry. The second massive sulphide unit, which
was intersected in one hole in this programme, lies immediately below the lower western contact of
the Commonwealth porphyry (Figures 7 and 8). The other 3 holes did not penetrate to the lower
contact.
Drill hole locations are shown in Figure 7 and other details are given in the tables at the end of this
report.
Figure 8. Cross section showing the upper and lower massive sulphide units at Main Shaft (see Figure
7 for section location). Both lenses are open at depth.
Hole CMIPT084 was drilled 15 metres north of the massive sulphide lens2,3 and intersected
5.7 metres true width of massive sulphide from 52.1 metres down hole at the hanging wall contact of
the Commonwealth porphyry unit (Figures 7 and 8). Figure 9 shows the pyrite-rich and sphalerite-rich
styles of mineralisation for comparison.
Hole 84 has returned:
5.7 metres at 3.8 g/t gold, 347 g/t silver, 10.8% zinc and 3.7% lead from 52.1 metres down hole;
including 0.7 metres at 15.6 g/t gold, 245 g/t silver, 8.6% zinc and 1.9% lead from 52.5 metres;
and 0.5 metres at 4.9 g/t gold 917 g/t silver 10.2% zinc and 4.6% lead from 56.9 metres down
hole.
This has extended the massive sulphide lens at Main Shaft for 15 to 20 metres along trend to the north
and importantly for any future mining operation, the mineralisation is within 30 metres of surface.

54.3m-54.4m
Figure 9. Hole CMIPT084: Photographs of end-member styles of massive sulphide mineralisation:
massive pyrite (bronze colour) with fine grained sphalerite and galena (upper) and massive sphalerite
(red-brown) with galena (silver grey) (lower). Similar styles of mineralisation occur in all four drill
holes at Main Shaft.
Hole CMIPT082 was drilled 20 metres down dip from previous high grade drill intercepts3 and
intersected two metres true width of semi-massive sulphide with surrounding disseminated sulphide
(Figure 8).
Hole 082 has returned:
4 metres at 3.3 g/t gold, 129 g/t silver, 7% zinc and 1.9% lead from 96.4 metres down hole;
including 2.1 metres at 5.1 g/t gold, 239 g/t silver, 12.8% zinc and 3.5% lead from 98 m down
hole.
Hole CMIPT083 was drilled 20 metres along trend from Hole 082 and intersected 2.6 metres true
width of semi-massive sulphide.
Hole 083 has returned:
2.6 metres at 7.9 g/t gold, 164 g/t silver, 5.3% zinc and 3.1% lead from 96.9 metres down hole.
Importantly, these intercepts all indicate the upper massive sulphide unit at Main Shaft extends from
surface to a depth of about 100 metres and is still open below and to the south (Figures 7 and 8).
Hole CMIPT085 was drilled in an area of little drilling about 70 metres along trend to the south of the
massive sulphide lens at Main Shaft (Figure 7). This hole intersected 1.5 metres true width of
brecciated massive sulphide and is the first indication of massive sulphide in this area. This is
encouraging as it suggests there is potential here for further near surface mineralisation.
Hole 085 has returned:
1.7 metres at 1.8 g/t gold, 72 g/t silver, 1.5% zinc and 0.5% lead from 49.3 metres down hole.
Second Massive Sulphide Unit
In addition to the intercept of the massive sulphide unit at Main Shaft, Hole CMIPT083 also
intersected a 20 metre thick zone of alteration and patchy sulphide mineralisation from 130 metres
down hole below the Commonwealth porphyry (Figure 8).
Within the zone is a one metre thick zone of brecciated massive sulphide comprised mostly of
sphalerite with patches of chalcopyrite (Figure 10).
Figure 10. Hole CMIPT083: massive and brecciated massive sphalerite (red-brown) with lesser
galena. Up to 3% chalcopyrite (yellow) is present in places.
In this zone Hole 083 returned:
1 metre at 3.1 g/t gold, 57 g/t silver, 9.4% zinc, 4.3% lead and 0.3% copper from 143 metres
down hole. This includes a narrow zone of massive high grade sphalerite which returned
0.3 metres at 0.8 g/t gold, 150 g/t silver, 30.2% zinc and 13.6% lead.
The massive sulphide unit is the first confirmed presence of a high grade gold-rich massive sulphide
unit below the Commonwealth porphyry. It occurs within a copper-rich mineralised horizon that is up
to 50 metres thick and has been intersected in 12 previous drill holes.
The previous drill holes contain higher grade intercepts in places which are interpreted to be alongtrend continuations of Hole 083.
For example Hole CMIPT006 returned 31 metres at 0.13% copper and 5 g/t silver including
1 metre at 1% copper, 1.1% zinc, 0.4% lead, 34 g/t silver and 0.4 g/t gold; and
Hole CMIPT050 returned 49 metres at 0.1% copper including
0.8 metres at 2.5% copper, 4% zinc, 0.5% lead, 39 g/t silver and 0.2 g/t gold.2,3,4
The results suggest the massive sulphide unit is increasing in grade, gold content and potentially
thickness with depth (Figure 8).
All of this indicates significant exploration potential for another thicker massive sulphide unit down
plunge and below the level of current drilling (Figures 7 and 8).
Silica Hill
At Silica Hill two diamond drill holes were completed to test down dip and along-trend extensions to
the previously discovered high grade gold and silver mineralisation4,5.
Hole CMIPT081 was drilled 65 metres along trend from previous high grade drill intercepts4,5 and
intersected an eight metre thick true width zone of disseminated and wispy bands of up to 20% pyrite
in places from 202 metres down hole. A stronger mineralised zone about five metres thick was
intersected from 212 metres down hole.
Hole 081 has returned:
5.5 metres at 1.3 g/t gold and 170 g/t silver from 212 metres down hole
including 0.5 metres at 2.5 g/t gold and 773 g/t silver.
Hole CMIPT080 was drilled 125 metres along trend from Hole 081 and intersected a 24 metre thick
true width zone of patchy to pervasive silica-sericite-sulphide alteration with disseminated and narrow
veins of pyrite with trace pathfinder metals arsenic, zinc and lead from 317 metres down hole. This
includes a 0.5 metre thick quartz sulphide vein with visible silver minerals at 317.5 metres down hole.
Hole 080 returned a broad alteration zone of 93 metres at 0.04 g/t gold and 3 g/t silver with a narrow
zone of 0.6 metres at 0.6 g/t gold and 48 g/t silver.
Both of these holes demonstrate a continuation of the Silica Hill mineralised system for at least
200 metres along trend. However the zone is narrower than previous drill holes to the west (Figure 7).
The mineralisation is open at depth, in particular to the west, and this is a key target for follow up
drilling. The mineralisation at Silica Hill is still open in all directions and further deeper drilling is
required.
Commonwealth South
At Commonwealth South, located 400 metres south of Main Shaft, the two diamond drill holes tested
the down plunge extension of a previous high grade drill intercept of 7 metres at 25.5 g/t gold, 62 g/t
silver, 3.8% zinc and 1.6% lead in Hole CMIPT0176.
Hole CMIPT086 intersected 2.5 metres of semi-massive pyrite and zinc sulphide with lesser lead
sulphide in an 8 metre thick zone of disseminated and vein-hosted sulphide from about 96 metres
down hole.
Hole CMIPT087 intersected about 10 metres of vein and stringer mineralisation with narrow zones of
semi-massive sulphide from about 96 metres down hole.
In addition both holes intersected a second zone of disseminated sulphide and stringer vein
mineralisation deeper in the drill holes, below the porphyry unit. This is encouraging.
The mineralisation is dominated by thicker layers of pyrite interlayered with up to 15% fine grained
zinc sulphide (sphalerite) and up to 5% lead sulphide (galena). In a few places there are also zones
with thick layers of sphalerite with lesser galena and pyrite.
Assays from these final two holes are due shortly, following a delay in the laboratory.
All eight diamond drill holes successfully intersected mineralisation in the drill programme.
DISCUSSION AND NEXT STEPS
All of these results indicate the potential to increase the Inferred Resources at Commonwealth both for
the overall resource, which extends from Main Shaft to Commonweath South, and for the higher grade
massive sulphide resource within it, at Main Shaft (Figure 7).
The Inferred Resource was prepared in accordance with the JORC 2012 Code by independent resource
consultants Optiro2. At a 0.5 g/t gold cut off the entire Inferred Resource is:
720,000 tonnes at 2.8 g/t gold, 48 g/t silver, 1.5% zinc, 0.6% lead and 0.1% copper.
The resource extends from surface to an average depth of 90 metres, has a strike length of 400 metres
and is up to 25 metres thick.
A separate Inferred Resource (included within the overall resource) was also calculated for the
massive sulphide lens at Main Shaft alone to demonstrate the high grade nature of such deposits that
are the principal target for Impact’s exploration programme. The Main Shaft Inferred Resource is:
145,000 tonnes at 4.3 g/t gold, 142 g/t silver, 4.8% zinc, 1.7% lead and 0.2% copper.
Upon receipt of the final assays a detailed synthesis and interpretation of all data collected will be
commenced with a view to a resource upgrade by Q1 2019. In addition further drilling is required at
all prospects. Impact will look to drill these areas in 2019.

3.
CLERMONT GOLD PROJECT, QUEENSLAND (IPT 100%)
A drill programme to test five target areas for vein-hosted gold mineralisation at the Clermont Project
located 30 km south of the town of Clermont in central Queensland was completed during the Quarter.
The project is located in the southern part of the Drummond Basin in Central Queensland, a prolific
epithermal gold-silver belt which hosts several world class gold deposits such as Pajingo (VeraNancy) (>5 Moz), Mt Leyshon (>3 Moz) and Mt Wright (>1 Moz) (Figure 3).
The five target areas being drill tested were identified on the basis of anomalous soil and rock chip
geochemistry and Induced Polarisation ground geophysical anomalies together with previous drill
results where available (see ASX Release July 18th 2018).
Assays are still being received and interpreted by respected epithermal and porphyry mineralisation
specialist Dr Gregg Morrison. Final interpretations are expected to be completed in November.
4. MULGA TANK PROJECT (IPT 100%)
A reconnaissance aircore drill programme was completed during the Quarter at Impact Minerals
Limited’s Mulga Tank project located 200 km north east of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia.
The programme tested five targets for gold and nickel-copper-cobalt mineralisation hosted in
Archaean greenstones and as identified in magnetic and gravity data together with anomalous drill
results from previous explorers and work completed by Impact.
This work has shown that the style of mineralisation and the nature of the rocks in the greenstone belt
are similar to those that host the significant nickel deposits at Perseverance (1 Mt of contained nickel)
and Mt Keith (>2 Mt of contained nickel) near Leinster in WA (Figure 1). In addition the project area
occurs in the same geological terrain as the recently discovered Gruyere deposit of more than 5 million
ounces of gold.
Poor drilling conditions were encountered in a number of areas and each target area was only tested by
a few drill holes and the nickel targets were not effectively tested. No significant gold results were
returned and the project is being reviewed.
5. COMPLETION OF SALE OF PILBARA GOLD PROJECT TO PACTON GOLD INC
The Share Sale Agreement for sale of the Company’s Pilbara gold project to Pacton Gold Incorporated
as announced to the ASX on May 29th 2018 was completed during the Quarter.
Under the terms of the Share Sale Agreement, Pacton has purchased a 100% ownership interest in
Impact’s wholly owned subsidiary Drummond East Pty Limited which holds seven 100% owned
granted Exploration Licences in the Pilbara region of Western Australia (E45/4971-72-73; E46/117172; and E46/1188-89).
The total consideration to be paid by Pacton to Impact for the purchase was CAD$350,000 and
2,125,000 common shares of Pacton. In addition a payment of CAD$500,000 is due if an Inferred
Resource of 250,000 ounces or greater is discovered on the licences.
Impact will return a 2% NSR with Pacton retaining the right to buy back 1% of the royalty for
CAD$500,000 at anytime.
Impact also will provide on-going technical advice to Pacton’s team and looks forward to working
with them as exploration in the Pilbara progresses. Pacton has a strong business plan for its
exploration in the Pilbara and is well funded following a recent CAD$5.5 million raising including
CAD$2 million from Eric Sprott, a major direct and indirect shareholder in Novo Resources
Corporation.

COMMONWEALTH APPENDIX 1 - SECTION 1 SAMPLING TECHNIQUES AND DATA
Criteria
JORC Code explanation
Commentary
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or
specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate
to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma
sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not
be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
Rock chip samples
Random grab samples were taken at surface which represented favourable geology and alteration to known mineralisation in the region.
Samples are variably weathered.
Soil Samples
About 250g of soil was taken from 15-20cm below surface and sieved to - 2mm size. Samples put in plastic snap seal bags. Samples were
subsequently sieved to -250 micron at SGS Laboratories for assay by aqua regia digest.
RC Drilling
Reverse Circulation (RC) percussion drilling was used to produce a 1m bulk sample (~25kg) which was collected in plastic bags and
representative 1m split samples (12.5%, or nominally 3kg) were collected using a riffle splitter and placed in a calico bag. The cyclone was
cleaned out with compressed air at the end of each hole and periodically during the drilling. Holes were drilled to optimally intercept
interpreted mineralised zones.
Diamond Drilling
