Chief Executive Officer Mr James Wilson commented: “Completion of due diligence and receipt of the $0.5M payment marks a key milestone in our partnership with Newcam Minerals. This investment not only provides immediate funding to advance planning and exploration but also validates the strong potential of our Bryah Iron Ore assets. With planning well advanced and field teams recently on site, we are looking forward to commencing drilling shortly.
Importantly, should Newcam exercise the option Alchemy will receive another $0.5M payment and retain a 40% free-carried interest through to a Decision to Mine, ensuring the Company remains exposed to the significant upside of any development success while minimising capital risk.
The combination of Newcam’s operational capability and Alchemy’s established project pipeline positions the Bryah Iron Ore Project as a compelling growth opportunity.”

BRYAH IRON ORE (Alchemy 100%)
In May 2024, Alchemy geologists conducted a mapping and sampling trip to Valley Bore. Twenty (20) rock chip samples were collected from outcrops within the Valley Bore prospect on M52/844-I and E52/4090. This area is dominated by two northeast trending ridges comprised of banded iron formation (“BIF”), banded chert, siltstone, haematitic shales, and massive hematite lenses.[1]
Northern Ridge Target:
The northern ridge in the Valley Bore area is characterised by numerous banded iron and banded chert formations which outcrop for approximately 1.5km along strike. Hematite and goethite rich units of BIF are observed. These lenses are between 5m and 15m thick and are interpreted to extend along strike to the southwest, with historic sampling of hematite outcrop returning grades up to 61.91% Fe (Figure 3, Figure 4 and Figure 5).
Southern Ridge Target:
The southern ridge of the Valley Bore area is dominated by laterally extensive hematite units, several BIFs and banded chert units (Figure 4). The massive hematite unit can be followed along strike for over 800 metres in strike and ranges from 10m to 100m wide (Figure 4). High grade rock chip assays were received, including up to 65.3% Fe in sample VB005. This unit is interpreted to continue along strike with mapping confirming hematite outcrop assays up to 60.2% Fe in sample VB001, approximately 750m to the southwest of Southern Ridge Target (Figure 3, Figure 4, Figure 5 and Figure 6).
Old Highway Target:
The Old Highway target lies in the south-east corner of tenement E52/4090 (Figure 3). The area is dominated by a long, northeast trending ridge consisting of inter-bedded siltstone, banded chert, and minor BIFs. Iron enrichment and hematite lenses are observed within the BIFs and on the eastern end of the ridge. High grade iron ore enrichment is related to hematite within a fold hinge on the eastern side of the prospect. Previous sampling returned grades within the high-grade hematite zone up to 64.09% Fe (Figure 8)[2] .
