Auroch Minerals (ASX: AOU) drilling intersects veins of Zinc-Lead mineralization at Bonaventura. Submit questions for Live Webinar.

Cadence Minerals (AIM/NEX: KDNC; OTC: KDNCY) is pleased to note the update published today by Auroch Minerals (ASX:AOU) 'Auroch' that it has successfully completed its maiden drilling programme at its 100%-owned Bonaventura Project in South Australia, intercepting significant base-metal mineralisation at its Dewrang and Grainger Prospects.

Highlights:

· Drilling at the Grainger Zinc Prospect (Bonaventura Project) intersected significant vein sets of zinc-lead mineralisation in fresh rock at shallow depth, best intercepts include:

o 6.0m at 1.53% zinc and 0.21% lead from 28.3m, including 1.0m at 4.50% zinc and 0.34% lead from 33.3m.

o 7.0m at 1.65% zinc and 0.26% lead from 64.2m, including 1.0m at 4.14% zinc and 0.66% lead from 70.2m.

· Further drilling at the Dewrang Prospect (Bonaventura Project) intersected significant base-metals mineralisation coincident to a previously defined 1.5km geophysical IP anomaly.

Auroch is planning a structural geology study of the Grainger Prospect in order to better understand the deformational history of the target area and the structural control over mineralisation in order to potentially define target areas of thicker mineralisation and/or higher grades. Samples will also be tested in order to determine which geophysical survey method might be used to best define potential zones of base-metal mineralisation and thus locate possible drill targets for the next phase of drilling at the Grainger Prospect.

The Dewrang Prospect remains a priority target area for Auroch since the drilling has demonstrated that the 1.5km long IP chargeability anomaly appears to correlate with base metals mineralisation. Additionally, historic surface soil-sampling highlighted the area as highly-anomalous in both zinc and lead. The geology team will continue to build the geological database, in order to develop these targets and define new target areas within the large tenement package, with the intent of defining targets for the next phase of drilling at the Bonaventura Project in the first half of 2019.

Cadence currently owns 6.6% of the equity in Auroch Minerals, which is an exploration company targeting principally zinc, cobalt and lithium.

Cadence Minerals CEO Kiran Morzaria commented: "The portfolio of assets owned by Auroch Minerals continue to add value to the investment proposition. Following from last week's news of the new license areas at the Lake Torrens IOCG tenement, Auroch has intersected and confirmed base metals mineralisation at its two highest-priority targets at Bonaventura. We look forward to further developments from Grainger and Dewrang prospects following the report from Auroch's geology team"
