GRENFELL RESOURCES LIMITED

QUARTERLY REPORT - 30 SEPTEMBER 2001... Following the discovery of high grade shallow gold in drilling on the Soyuz prospect, the company undertook geochemical and geophysical surveys to define the likely orientation and extent of the mineralised system. Continued drilling was not considered appropriate due to the range of possibilities in orientation, width and extent of the mineralisation. The Soyuz area is a remarkably hostile environment for surface geochemistry, so the follow-up approach comprised an orientation geochemical survey which resulted in the choice of a specialised partial leach technique for the survey covering the inferred prospective area. This survey has been completed in conjunction with ground magnetic traverses and the results show a discordant north-south trending magnetic peak which is flanked by a coherent gold anomalism to the west and particularly to the east. Copper anomalism is also present to the northeast of the discrete magnetic anomaly. The overall anomalous area defined is approximately 600 x 750m. ASX Announcement or COMPANY WEB SITE

I attach a notice of General Meeting in regard to the above company of which you are a shareholder. You may be aware that Receivers and Managers were appointed to the company by Bank West on 25 June 2001. Since that time it is by no means apparent that the remaining Directors have achieved anything in terms of facilitating arrangements which might put value back into our shares. Certainly there has been no communication with shareholders and as time passes and the Receiver advertises "our" asset for sale my real concern is that the asset, principally in the form of a share in the Joint Venture, will be sold to others who will have no interest in delivering any residual value to the existing shareholders. A fairly similar picture exists in regard to the other Joint Venture party Allstate Exploration NL where an administrator has been appointed by its directors. Again communication with Allstate shareholders as to what is happening is minimal. ASX Announcement or COMPANY WEB SITE

MAGELLAN PETROLEUM AUSTRALIA LIMITED

Magellan Petroleum Australia Limited reports that the Crane 1-14 well in Baca County, Colorado, USA, was tested through casing on 20 October 2001. The well was perforated across three sands in the Permian-aged Glorietta Formation from 1,834 feet to 1,900 feet (559 metres to 579 metres). After acidizing, the well was swabbed for four hours and recovered about 3 bbls of load water. There was a slight blow at surface with pressure gradually building to 30 psi after 45 minutes. Mainly inert gas flowed at a rate of approximately 5 Mcf/D. The tubing was pulled from the hole and the well was shut in to allow pressure build-up and stabilisation. Gas analysis indicated a composition of 99.4 percent CO(2). This initial gas recovery may be the result of acid action on the near-hole formation matrix or the casing cement. A return to the well in two weeks will give conclusive results. ASX Announcement

BLIGH OIL & MINERALS NL

NEW ZEALAND - PEP38719, TARANAKI BASIN, BLIGH INTEREST: 5.00%... The Rimu B3 well is currently being plugged back and sidetracked at a depth just below the 64 metre interval of sandstone beginning at 1,581 metres where substantial hydrocarbon shows were observed in the mud log, free oil in the mud cuttings and electric log analysis indicated porosities of 27%. Numerous sidewall core samples, showing oil fluorescence of up to 80%, have been taken in this interval and are currently being analyzed for porosity and permeability. Drilling operations will resume as soon as additional equipment is installed on the rig to handle a synthetic oil-based mud system. The well was initially designed to target the Upper Tariki sand, but did not encounter either the Upper Tariki sand or Upper Rimu limestone in the upper thrusted section. The well, which was drilled to a total measured depth of 4,535 metres, encountered hole problems, and electric logs could not be obtained in the deeper horizons below 3,185 metres and drilling operations were suspended. Paleontology analysis of the cuttings indicated the well had encountered Eocene sands at a measured depth of 4,455 metres with coal and hydrocarbon shows observed in the mud log. The Upper Tariki is anticipated to be encountered in the sidetrack at an approximate measured depth of 3,740 metres, which is approximately 1,040 metres north of the Rimu-B1 well. ASX Announcement

MOUNT BURGESS MINING NL

CHICKEN RANCH PROSPECT (MOUNT BURGESS MINING NL 60% /NORMANDY GOLD EXPLORATION PTY LTD 40%)... At the Chicken Ranch prospect a further 225 metres of RC drilling in 5 holes was completed to infill portions of a steeply dipping, NW-SE striking variably mineralised corridor identified over a length of at least 200 metres.

Three of the 5 drillholes returned intersections in excess of 1 g/t Au (analysis by the aqua regia/AAS assay method with fire assay repeats for results >1 g/t Au, 0.01 ppm detection limit):

Drillhole	Northing	Easting	Orientation	Width	From	To	Au
	(Local)	(Local)	(dip/local grid bearing)	(m)	(m)	(m)	(g/t)
CRRC 019	6,510	9,793	-60^o/090^o	1	0	1	2.75
				2	10	12	2.99
				3	24	27	6.42
			(including)	1	26	27	17.7
CRRC 020	6,530	9,793	-60^o/090^o	3	27	30	3.26
CRRC 021	6,550	9,812	-60^o/270^o	1	22	23	2.71

Tim's Dome Prospect
(Mount Burgess Mining N.L. 100%)

At Tim's Dome 189 metres of RC drilling in 2 holes was completed to confirm previously identified gold mineralisation in a steeply-dipping structure.

Due to poor ground conditions, the drilling bit in drillhole TDRC 052 was lost at 85m depth and the target zone was not reached. RC drillhole TDRC 053 also encountered problematic ground conditions within the target horizon and was terminated prematurely at a depth of 104m.

Prior to abandoning the drillhole, TDRC 053 intersected and finished within a 20m zone of gold mineralisation >0.1 g/t Au. Within the mineralised envelope a 6m intersection returned:

Drillhole	Northing	Easting	Orientation	Width	From	To	Au
	(Local)	(Local)	(dip/local grid bearing)	(m)	(m)	(m)	(g/t)
TDRC 053	27,500	6,385	-60^o/090^o	6	89	95	1.56

Gold analysis was determined by the aqua regia/AAS method with fire assay repeats for results >1 g/t Au, 0.01 ppm detection limit.

The presence of a 20m mineralised zone (open at depth) provides significant encouragement for further work at Tim's Dome, particularly as TDRC 053 was drilled 25m grid east from previously drilled TDRC 034.

Previously reported results from TDRC 034 are:

Drillhole	Northing	Easting	Orientation	Width	From	To	Au
	(Local)	(Local)	(dip/local grid bearing)	(m)	(m)	(m)	(g/t)
TDRC 034	27,500	6,360	-60^o/090^o	24	102	126	1.65

INTRODUCTION... Nickel and cobalt dispatched for sale amounted to 524 and 35 tonnes respectively. Circuit inventories of nickel increased by about 10 tonnes for the month. Plant throughput was affected by mechanical availability in the leach circuit with unscheduled maintenance being required as a consequence of the collapse of baffles in the intermediate heater vessel, and heater pump seal failures. Restrictions in the partial neutralisation circuit also affected plant performance. Performance of autoclave feed pumps was improved with the installation of valves made from advanced materials.

MOUNT BURGESS MINING NL

Recovery of a Macrodiamond and 5 Kimberlitic Garnets from Percussion Drilling
(Tsumkwe Diamond Project – Namibia, MTB 75%, Kimberlite Resources Pty Ltd 25%)

The Company has recovered a macrodiamond, without any signs of abrasion or frosting, and 5 pyrope garnets which exhibit only very minor abrasion or other signs of travel on their surfaces, in a 3 metre composite drill sample recovered from between 29 to 32 metres depth in drill hole TKN 146 at the Tsumkwe Project area.

TKN 146 was drilled to test a magnetic anomaly in July of this year and the kimberlitic mineral grains recovered are believed to be sourced from the basal portion of the Kalahari Formation which overlies this area. The drill hole was terminated at a depth of 45 metres in Karoo basalt.

The diamond is an oblong fragment of blue/white colour about 0.5 mm long. No striations or resorption features can be distinguished on the surface. The pyrope garnets are similar in size to the diamond and range in colour from deep purple to pink. All have been optically classified as kimberlitic.

The recovery of these kimberlitic minerals, particularly from a 6.5” diameter drillhole, is seen as extremely significant. A diamond bearing kimberlite source close to TKN 146 is inferred.

A pattern of drillholes surrounding TKN 146 is planned as soon as a rig can be mobilised. The basal Kalahari unconformity, from which the kimberlitic material in TKN 146 was derived, will be carefully sampled. The drill samples will be processed through the Company’s field jig at Tsumkwe before final dense media separation in Windhoek.

The Company now has an independent mineral sorter and surface textures observer operating in Windhoek (Namibia) to enable rapid turnaround of results and prioritisation of samples. A trail of kimberlitic material should be established from this sub-surface sampling which may lead to the kimberlite source.

A second, close-spaced aeromagnetic programme, in the order of 10,000 line kilometres, extending detailed survey coverage of basement rocks in the eastern portion of the EPLs, has recently been completed by the Company . A number of encouraging magnetic anomalies have been generated and will be drill tested in the forthcoming programme. DETAILS - COMPANY WEB SITE
