ASX RELEASE

Final survey results confirm potential extensions of carbonatite mineralisation at Myoff Creek Niobium/Rare Earths Project, British Columbia

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Airborne survey : A helicopter-borne high resolution aeromagnetic and radiometric survey covering 70-line kms was recently flown across the Myoff Creek tenure area. Preliminary survey results were announced to ASX on 23 September 2025. Final survey data has now been received and assessed by AuKing.

  • Carbonatite mineralization confirmed : Final survey results are consistent with previously interpreted and drilled near-surface carbonatite mineralization in the northern area of the project area which contained notable intercepts of niobium and total rare earth oxides. ( See ASX release by AuKing dated 22 July 2024).

  • Potential carbonatite extension: The survey has also highlighted previously untested anomalous areas of additional carbonatite mineralization in the central and southern areas of the Myoff Creek project area, providing potential extensions of carbonatite mineralisation and creating fresh exploration targets for follow-up.

  • Cloncurry Gold Project acquisition progressing: As per AuKing’s 18 September 2025 ASX announcement, the Company has entered into a binding agreement to acquire 100% of Orion Resources. This transaction will deliver full ownership of the Cloncurry Gold Project, removing previous joint venture complexity.

AuKing’s Managing Director, Mr Paul Williams, said “ The strong levels of market interest in the exploration and development of rare earth elements (REEs) in North America provide a solid backdrop for the Company releasing final survey results from the recently-completed aeromagnetic and radiometric survey at Myoff Creek in south-eastern British Columbia. The survey results are consistent with historical drilling that outlined a 1.4km by 0.4km nearsurface Nb-REE bearing carbonatite zone, while also highlighting the potential for significant extensions of mineralisation across the broader tenure. AuKing will now assess the extent of future exploration activities based on these potentially exciting results”.

Myoff Creek Project

Strategically located in south-eastern British Columbia, Canada, the Myoff Creek project is situated in the South Central Mining Region, well known for mineral extraction and processing. This region is host to some major mining operations including; Teck Resources Limited’s Highland Valley Copper Mine, and Hudbay Minerals Inc’s Copper Mountain Mine.

The nearest township of Seymour Arm, which is accessible by road from the claims, has accommodation and logistical support. Kamloops (population 108,000), the major commercial centre for the region, has numerous resources such as equipment and professional services for mining and exploration activities.

Airborne Survey Results

On 23 September 2025, AuKing announced preliminary survey results at Myoff Creek derived from the conduct of a helicopter-borne high resolution aeromagnetic and radiometric survey. Precision GeoSurveys Inc. provided these survey services.

The survey comprised 70-line kms flown in a systematic low-level grid pattern across the entire Myoff Creek tenure area. With that survey having been completed, AuKing has now received the final results that are set out below.

The presence of uranium and thorium is often associated with carbonatite-hosted rare earth mineralization. Figure 2 on the left below illustrates the surveyed uranium-equivalent mineralisation across the Myoff Creek project area and the location of historic drilling holes where the Nb-REE mineralisation was detected (See AuKing release to ASX on 24 July 2024). It should be noted that the drill holes appear to be situated on a contact zone where the previously-interpreted carbonatite mineralisation had been identified. Figure 3 on the right below, illustrates the surveyed thorium-equivalent mineralisation across the Myoff Creek project area. There are surveyed areas of anomalous uranium and thorium that have not been previously identified in historical exploration and provide significant potential for extensions of the historically-interpreted carbonatite mineralisation to the north.

Next steps

The high-resolution airborne radiometric survey has provided critical data for identifying and prioritising drill targets across the Myoff project area, with a specific focus on features associated with rare earth mineralisation.

By analyzing the patterns and ratios from the radiometric survey, AuKing can begin to delineate the geometry and strike extension of the key rare earth-hosted carbonatite unit. This integrated approach allows AuKing to focus its initial proposed drill program with

maximum precision, testing the strongest radiometric anomalies that represent the highest potential for significant rare earth discovery and expansion of the known mineralisation.

Cautionary note re historical exploration results

In relation to the historical exploration results mentioned in this release, AuKing notes the following:

  • Historical results have not been reported in accordance with the JORC Code 2012;

  • A Competent Person has not done sufficient work to disclose the exploration results in accordance with the JORC Code 2012;

  • It is possible that following further evaluation and/or exploration work that the confidence in the prior reported exploration results may be reduced when reported under the JORC Code 2012;

  • Nothing has come to the attention of AuKing that causes it to question the accuracy or reliability of the former owners’ exploration results; and

  • AuKing has not independently validated the former owners’ exploration results and therefore is not to be regarded as reporting, adopting or endorsing those results.

Geology
Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.

Myoff Creek lies within the Proterozoic
(Aphebian) age metamorphic carbonatite
belt of the Shuswap Metamorphic Complex,
a belt of high-grade and intensely deformed
metamorphic and intrusive rocks in the core
of the Columbian Orogen in south-eastern
British Columbia. This is a known area for
Nb-REE-P-Ti bearing carbonatites. The
Shuswap Complex, along its eastern margin,
is characterized by a series of fault-bounded
domal culminations that expose mixed
paragneiss, granitic gneiss and migmatite of
Paleoproterozoic age.

There
are
two
types
of
carbonatite
recognized in the area. Type I, the intrusive
phase (the REN carbonatite) and Type II, the
extrusive
phase
(the
Mount
Grace
carbonatite – MGC). These carbonatites are
generally rich in rare earths and other critical
minerals with low impurities, while remaining
close to the surface. Myoff Creek is a
Nephelinitic and ultramafic carbonatite-
hosted deposit type up to 200m thick. This is
similar
to
the
Aley
and
Wicheeda
carbonatites – both situated in northern
British Columbia.

this exclusion does not detract from the
understanding of the report, the Competent
Person should clearly explain why this is the
_case. _
Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting
averaging techniques, maximum and/or
minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of
high grades) and cut-off grades are usually
Material and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short
lengths of high grade results and longer
lengths of low grade results, the procedure
used for such aggregation should be stated
and some typical examples of such
aggregations should be shown in detail.
The assumptions used for any reporting of
metal equivalent values should be clearly
stated.

Not applicable
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths
These relationships are particularly important in
the reporting of Exploration Results.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with
respect to the drill hole angle is known, its
nature should be reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths
are reported, there should be a clear statement
to this effect (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width
not known’).

Not applicable
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales)
and tabulations of intercepts should be included
for any significant discovery being reported.
These should include, but not be limited to a
plan view of drill hole collar locations and
_appropriate sectional views. _

Diagrams have been included within the
main body of text and are considered
preliminary only. Final corrections and
processing are still to be completed.

drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys),
trenches, mine workings and other locations
used in Mineral Resource estimation.
Where
comprehensive
reporting
of
all

practicable,
representative reporting of both low and high
grades and/or widths should be practiced to
avoid misleading reporting of Exploration
Results.
