Dear Sir

Strong Gold Mineralisation at Duplex South Prospect


Australian Mines Limited is pleased to announce the results from recent drilling at Duplex Hill South, which is 30 km South East of Kalgoorlie and 7 km from the company’s Blair underground nickel mine.

To date four traverses of RC resource definition drilling have defined a shallow, strongly mineralised NE striking reef system with a strike length of 100 metres. The mineralisation is open both along strike and at depth.

The company is currently examining the results in detail to plan the next phase of drilling to delineate a gold resource, and plans to recommence drilling as soon as possible thereafter.


Tabled below are significant intersections from the RC drilling program of September 2005:
