Kate Lens Definition Drilling Continues to Impress:

26.6m of Massive Sulphides Intersected

Intercepts from recent drilling into the Kate Lens:

o 21.8m of Copper Sulphides from 377.8m and 4.8m of Polymetallic

Sulphides from 406.6m, WNDD0071 (assays pending)

o 9.0m of Polymetallic and Copper sulphides from 369.8m, WNDD0073 (assays pending)

Recent Assays received from Kate Lens drilling:

Heron Resources Limited (ASX:HRR TSX:HER, "Heron" or the "Company") is pleased to provide a summary of recent results of the Phase II resource definition drilling at its wholly owned Woodlawn Project, located 250km south-west of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

Phase II Drilling

The Phase II drilling program (comprising approximately 19,000m of Diamond drilling) at Woodlawn is now 68% completed, with 13,000 metres having been drilled, reflecting on-time and on-budget progress.

The objective of the Phase II drilling is to delineate sufficient Measured and Indicated Resources which can then be converted into an initial underground Mineral Reserve within the Feasibility Study, allowing the Project to support commercial bank debt and proceed to mine construction. In undertaking this program, the Company has focused on minimising time and costs through targeting relatively shallow depth positions in the numerous lenses with the in-fill drilling required to upgrade a portion of the underground Mineral Resource to an Indicated Resources classification. In addition, shallow mineralised positions that have the potential to provide ready-access production in the early part of the planned underground operations are also being tested.

New assays and massive sulphide intercepts from Kate Lens (refer Figure 1 for locations):

5.4m @ 27.7% ZnEq from 351m (15.1% Zn, 1.5% Cu, 6.0% Pb, 1.0g/t Au, 70g/t Ag), WNDD0039

21.8m of Copper Sulphides from 377.8m & 4.8m of Polymetallic Sulphides from 406.6m, WNDD0071

9.0m of Polymetallic and Copper sulphides from 369.8m, WNDD0073

These results are encouraging and confirm the extent and tenor of the Kate Lens polymetallic mineralisation. In addition, the thick (21.8m) zone of copper mineralisation in WNDD0073 (approx. true width; assays pending) visually suggests it contains economic grades of copper which will contribute to the separate zone of copper mineralisation now being defined


1 Zn equivalents (ZnEq) in this release are based on the formula: Zn(%) + 0.81 x Pb(%) + 3.12 x Cu(%) + 0.86 x Au(g/t) + 0.03 x Ag(g/t). All these metals are expected to be recoverable. Refer to the announcement of 22 April 2015 entitled "Preliminary Economic Assessment Delivers Strong Business Case for the Woodlawn Zinc-Copper Project" for further information.

within the lower and south end of the Kate Lens. Importantly, this copper mineralisation was not part of the of PEA Mineral

Resource estimate and is likely to add to the overall economic viability of the Kate Lens.

G2 Lens - recent assays

5.7m @ 12.3% ZnEq from 76m (5.9% Zn, 0.2% Cu, 3.9% Pb, 0.4g/t Au, 73g/t Ag), WNDD0042

2.6m @ 7.4% ZnEq from 95m (3.6% Zn, 0.1% Cu, 2.4% Pb, 0.2g/t Au, 50g/t Ag), WNDD0045

The G2 Lens is a newly recognised southern extension to the main G Lens and was identified through downhole electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys. G2 represents a new style of "stringer" sphalerite (Zn) and galena (Pb) mineralisation which has the potential to be of economic interest. The shallow position and proximity of G2 to the proposed box cut, positioned on the western side of the open pit, has made this an area of focus in recent weeks. Similar mineralisation has been observed in subsequent drill holes in this area with assays pending.

H Lens - recent assays

1.1m @ 52.0% ZnEq from 117m (24% Zn, 4.3% Cu, 12.9% Pb, 1.5g/t Au, 97g/t Ag), WNDD0044

5.3m @ 10.0% ZnEq from 103m (1.4% Zn, 1.6% Cu, 0.9% Pb, 1.3g/t Au, 63g/t Ag), WNDD0050

These recent results are in line with our expectations of H Lens being thin, but often high-grade at shallow depths, and positioned close to the early stage mine development. Additional drilling is planned for this area in the coming weeks.

Forward program

The recent focus of the drilling has been the conversion of the Kate Lens resource to an Indicated Resource category, and it is anticipated that the PEA estimate of Kate Lens will be considerably improved by incorporating the thicker zones of mineralisation found in the current drill program. The mineralisation is open in a number of directions, both along strike and down plunge, and further upside exists. Additional drilling is also planned on a number of the shallow lenses (E, G, G2 and H) in an attempt to bring these to an Indicated Resource category.

The Woodlawn system continues to demonstrate its potential with recent DHEM survey results providing extensional targets to known lenses and highlighting new targets which require further assessment and possibly drill testing.

A program of deeper drill testing of the Kate Deeps DHEM plates is also being considered.

Notes: True width is an estimate of the actual thickness of the intercept based on interpreted lens orientation (approximately 80% to
90% of downhole width, with 80% used in this table as a general guide); grades are weighted average grades, weighted by length of samples intervals downhole, which are nominally 1 metre. No weighting was applied for differences in specific gravity which is most
cases are relatively low. * = Previously reported results.

government legislation, taxation, controls, regulations, political or economic developments in Canada, Australia or other countries in which the Company does business or may carry on business in the future, operational or technical difficulties in connection with exploration or development activities, employee relations, the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, obtaining necessary licenses and permits, diminishing quantities and grades of mineral reserves, contests over title to properties, especially title
to undeveloped properties, the inherent risks involved in the exploration and development of mineral properties, the uncertainties involved in interpreting drill results and other geological data, environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins and flooding, limitations of insurance coverage and the possibility of project cost overruns or unanticipated costs and expenses, and should be considered carefully.
