DIRECTORS’ REPORT

FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

2. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Exploration highlights include:

  • Subsequent to the half year, an ongoing 12,000 metre Resource definition diamond drilling program was completed at the Stawell Corridor Gold Project, targeting a maiden mineral resource at Resolution Lode on the eastern flank of the Irvine basalt dome.

  • Navarre was granted tenure over the main producing areas of the historical 400,000 ounce St Arnaud Goldfield (EL6819), in a competitive bidding process.

  • Completion of a maiden 3,444 metre AC program at the Jubilee Gold Project.

  • A 20,000 metre regional reconnaissance AC drilling program commenced, with drilling completed at Langi Logan, Jubilee and at the Morning Bill prospect on the Glenlyle tenement.

  • (a) Stawell Corridor Gold Project (ELs 5476, 5480, 5497, 6525, 6526, 6527, 6528, 6702, 6745, 7125, ELAs 6530 & 6843) (Navarre 100%)

The Company is searching for gold deposits in an extension of a corridor of rocks that host the six million ounce Stawell and one million ounce Ararat goldfields – the Stawell Gold Corridor – where seven potential Magdala gold deposit analogues have been identified within the 70 kilometre long tenement package (Figure 2).

Irvine Basalt Dome (ELs 5476, 6525, 6526, 6527, 6528 & ELA 6530)

The Irvine basalt dome is the location of Navarre’s most advanced prospects where the Company is currently drilling two discoveries, the Resolution and Adventure lodes (Figure 2).

Resolution Lode

Resource definition diamond drilling continued to deliver strong, consistent grades of gold mineralisation in an ongoing 12,000 metre diamond core program, with Navarre targeting a maiden mineral resource in early 2021.

Results reported during the half included:

  • 5.0m @ 10.0 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) from 273.9m in RD027

  • 9.4m @ 5.3 g/t Au from 355.6m, including 3.4m @ 9.2 g/t Au in RD028

  • 10.8m @ 4.5 g/t Au from 483.6m, including 4.2m @ 7.5 g/t Au in RD028

  • 0.9m @ 9.4 g/t Au from 251.4m in RD026

  • 0.6m @ 55.0 g/t Au from 494.1 metres in RD032

  • 7.9m @ 4.3 g/t Au from 441.4m, including 1.0m @ 11.7 g/t Au in RD032

  • 3.7m @ 3.8 g/t Au from 381.3m in RD030

Refer to ASX announcements dated 23 December 2020 and 25 September 2020.

These intercepts complement previously reported drill results (see ASX releases of 8 July 2020 and 27 April 2020).

Subsequent to the half-year, the Company completed its 12,000 metre resource definition diamond core drilling program, revealing grades of up to 55 g/t Au at Resolution’s South Shoot. The latest results confirm the strike length of gold mineralisation at Resolution Lode’s South Shoot (the bigger of Resolution’s two lode channels) to be approximately 1.3 kilometres, extending from surface to beyond 400 metres depth, remaining open down-plunge (see ASX release of 11 March 2021; Figure 3).

2. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Adventure Lode

The 1.3 kilometre long Adventure Lode discovery is four kilometres south of Resolution Lode, on the eastern flank of the Irvine basalt dome.

A 2,000 metre extension diamond drilling program commenced at Adventure Lode in December 2020, following mobilisation of a third diamond drilling rig.

Previously reported drill intercepts included 4.75m @ 3.5 g/t Au from 206.9m, encompassing 1.15m @ 9.8 g/t Au (see ASX release of 20 December 2019; Figure 4).

Subsequent to the half-year, the Company completed its 2,000 metre expansion diamond core drilling program and reported results for the first three holes, which delivered two of the highest grade intercepts recorded to date (see ASX release of 11 March 2021).

2. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Langi Logan Basalt Dome (ELs 5476, 5480, 6702, 6745, 7125 & ELA 6843)

The Langi Logan gold prospect is the next major basalt dome south of Irvine, located 40 kilometres south of Stawell (Figure 2). The majority of the prospect is concealed under recent unmineralised cover and has yielded several shallow, high-grade gold results of up to 33.6 g/t gold in early phase exploration (see ASX release of 12 February 2019; Figure 5).

==> picture [283 x 428] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 5: Gravity image of Langi Logan showing drill results (including historical) and geological interpretation

The Langi Logan prospect is in an area of significant historical deep lead gold production, with 133,000 ounces of gold recorded.

The prospect consists of four, potentially fault-bound segments of a Cambrian basalt dome structure, with a combined 14.5 kilometre strike length.

During the half-year, a 3,404 metre reconnaissance AC drilling program was completed at Langi Logan testing the prospective east and west margins of the Langi Logan north basalt dome.

The results were reported in January 2021 (see ASX release of 14 January 2021). Peak intercepts included 2 metres @ 1.2 g/t gold and 1 metre @ 2.4 g/t gold .

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

2. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Morning Bill prospect (formerly Glenlyle) (EL 5497) (Navarre 100%)

The Morning Bill prospect is located within the Glenlyle tenement, 25 kilometres north of Stavely Minerals Limited’s (ASX:SVY) Thursdays Gossan project and 20km west of Langi Logan (Figure 2).

During December 2020, Navarre commenced a program of reconnaissance AC drilling, designed to expand and scope the shallow lateral expanses of gold and silver mineralisation discovered in 2018 at the Morning Bill prospect and to test several other similar geophysical anomalies.

Subsequent to the half-year, the Company completed its 8,388 metre AC drilling program and reported results from 42 of the 102 holes completed, with strongly anomalous gold, silver, lead and zinc grades detected (see ASX releases of 4 February 2021 and 4 March 2021).

(b) Tandarra Gold Project (RL 6660) (Navarre 49%)

The Tandarra Gold Project is a joint venture with manager, Catalyst Metals Limited (ASX: CYL).

The advanced project is 40 kilometres north of the 22 million ounce Bendigo Goldfield and approximately 50 kilometres northwest from Kirkland Lake Gold’s Fosterville Gold Mine (Figure 6).

The project contains three main prospects referred to as the Tomorrow, Macnaughtan and Lawry prospects.

Macnaughtan Prospect

A reconnaissance AC drilling program tested the southerly extension of the Macnaughtan prospect on seven traverses spaced 100 to 270 metres apart, and confirmed significant gold mineralisation over a 1.4 kilometre strike length (Figure 7).

Gold mineralisation was intersected on most traverses, with the higher grades concentrated in a 500 metre interval in the centre of the prospect. Key intersections included:

  • 13m @ 7.8 g/t Au , including 2m @ 44.8 g/t Au from 78m in ACT464

  • 2m @ 2.1 g/t Au from 106m in ACT446

Refer to ASX announcement dated 13 October 2020.

FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

2. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Lawry Prospect

Results from AC drill testing of the newly discovered Lawry Zone, 200 metres east of the Tomorrow Zone, continues to return significant areas of gold mineralisation.

Key AC drill intersections include:

  • 31m @ 1.40 g/t Au from 56m in ACT378, including 5m @ 3.2 g/t Au & 1m @ 10.5 g/t Au at blade refusal

  • 2m @ 1.84 g/t Au from 91m in ACT376

The mineralisation encountered remains open to both the north and south (Figure 7).

Refer to ASX announcement dated 13 October 2020.

Tomorrow Prospect

Results from a 1,302 metre, four-hole expansion diamond drilling program confirmed a further 400 metre strike extent of a large discordant west-dipping fault, thought to control the emplacement of gold mineralisation (Figure 8). The best intersection was 1m @ 82.30 g/t Au from 261m in DDT026.

Refer to ASX announcement dated 13 October 2020.

2. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

(c) St Arnaud Gold Project (ELs 6556, 6819, ELAs 7431, 7436, 7496 & 7567 ) (Navarre 100%)

The St Arnaud Gold Project surrounds the historical St Arnaud Goldfield, where high-grade gold was mined from quartz lodes in a structural setting consistent with most gold deposits in Central Victoria, including Bendigo and Fosterville (Figure 1).

Following a competitive application process, Victoria’s minerals regulator granted Navarre tenure over the main areas of the historical St. Arnaud Goldfield, which has produced 400,000 ounces in the past.

Navarre lodged four adjacent exploration licence applications over more than 1,200 square kilometres which would double the size of the St Arnaud Gold Project when granted.

Subsequent to the half-year, the Company commenced a 2,000 metre diamond drilling campaign to follow up rich legacy gold hits, such as one metre at 1,174 grams per tonne (see ASX release of 11 February 2021).

(d) Jubilee Gold Project (EL 6689) (Navarre 100%)

During the half-year, the company finalised acquisition of the Jubilee Gold Project (Figure 1).

A geophysics program and 3,444 metre AC drilling program was also completed, as part of a 12,000 metre regional campaign announced to the ASX on 5 October 2020.

Encouraging maiden results were announced subsequent to the half-year, with all three targets returning strongly anomalous gold grades of up to 1.5 grams per tonne (see ASX release of 2 February 2021).

The Jubilee Gold Project includes the historical 619 metre deep Jubilee Gold Mine (mined 1887-1913) that produced approximately 130,000 ounces of gold at a recovered grade of around 12 grams per tonne.

(e) Stavely Arc Project (ELs 4590 & 5425)

Black Range Project (EL 4590) (Navarre 100%)

Subsequent to the half-year, the Company announced the divestment of the Black Range Project to Resource Base Limited (see ASX announcement of 16 February 2021).

Stavely Project (EL 5425)

Capturing multiple untested targets, EL 5425 is subject to an agreement where Stavely Minerals Limited (ASX: SVY) may earn an 80 per cent interest by spending $450,000 over five years.

There was no significant activity during the half-year at the Stavely Project.

(f) Significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the half-year

During the half-year, the Company raised $8,303,260 (before transaction costs) through capital raising initiatives, as detailed below (under the heading “Share Issues”). Proceeds from the capital raisings will be applied to future exploration and evaluation activities on the Stawell Corridor Gold Project and other priority projects in Victoria and ongoing corporate expenses.

2. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

(g) Events subsequent to balance date

On 16 February 2021, Navarre announced the execution of a binding agreement with Resource Base Limited (Resource Base) for the sale of the Company’s Black Range base metal exploration tenement (EL 4590) in western Victoria, which includes the Eclipse prospect.

As consideration for acquiring 100% ownership in the Tenement, Resource Base (who will seek admission to the ASX) will provide Navarre the following consideration, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions precedent:

  • $1,520,000 in Resource Base shares on settlement (at proposed Resource Base Initial Public Offering price of $0.20 per share);

  • 2,500,000 Resource Base shares on the announcement of a JORC compliant Mineral Resource of 100,000 tonnes of any minerals of economic interest from the Tenement within 5 years of the settlement date; and

  • 6,000,000 Resource Base shares on delivery of a definitive feasibility study within 5 years of settlement which indicates a project net present value of greater than $250,000,000.

In addition, Navarre will be entitled to nominate one non-executive director to sit on the Board of Resource Base.

There were no other significant matters that arose subsequent to 31 December 2020 and up until the date of this report.

3. OTHER MATTERS

Share Issues

In July 2020, Navarre raised $8,000,000 (before transaction costs) from a share placement to institutional and sophisticated investors, resulting in the issue of 64,000,000 ordinary shares at an issue price of $0.125 per share.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF

NAVARRE MINERALS LIMITED

Report on the Financial Report

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Navarre Minerals Limited (the company) and its subsidiaries (the Group) which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2020, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the Group comprising the company and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the half-year.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2020 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of Navarre Minerals Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations act 2001, which has been given to the directors of Navarre Minerals Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report .

Conclusion

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Navarre Minerals Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2020 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001 .
