SA Metals Limited has commenced drilling on its Aurora project on the Northern Limb of the Bushveld Complex. The drilling programme is aimed at exploring the Iron (Fe), Vanadium (V) and Titanium (Ti)
potential resulting from the initial grab sampling exercise that indicated:
- Fe2O3 ranged from 73.4% to 76.4%. (approximately 52% Fe equivalent)
- V2O5 ranged from 0.72% to 1.03%.
- TiO2 ranged from 16.3% to 19.2%.
Reported that aeromagnetic survey interpretation indicates that there is approximately 6km of
strike of the Main Magnetite Layer on Nonnenwerth. In addition to the Main Magnetite Layer, there are several parallel magnetite layers underlying the property indicated by the survey.

Reported that preliminary exploration of the magnetite layers of the Upper Zone of the Bushveld Complex, carried out during the quarter on the Nonnenwerth property shows favourable vanadium, iron ore and titanium potential. Outcrop of the magnetite layers is poor in a generally sand covered terrain and limited
largely to magnetite rubble zones indicating the underlying magnetite layers. Grab sampling of the available magnetite rubble zones on traverses across the regional strike was undertaken.
