VTEM Survey Preliminary Data Highlights:

  • Preliminary line data indicates mid to late channel bedrock conductors at several new undrilled locations.

  • At the new Droughtmaster Prospect a strong late time conductor identified on the southern end of the Magna Lynn VTEM survey and coincident with undrilled historical copper workings.

  • At the new Speckle Park Prospect a moderate late time conductor has been identified over 3 consecutive 200m spaced VTEM lines .

  • At the new Charolais Prospect a new conductor over five consecutive 200m spaced VTEM lines has been defined. No previous exploration has been recorded over this area.

  • The 435 line km aerial VTEM survey was completed over a >20km section of the Magna Lynn southern corridor which stretches for over 75km of essentially unexplored terrain south of the Nil Desperandum deposit.

  • The VTEM survey was funded by the Queensland government Collaborative Exploration Incentive ( CEI ) grant program.

  • VTEM has been highly effective in the Greater Duchess region for identifying Iron Oxide Copper Gold mineralisation, exemplified by the discovery of the Mohawk Prospect in 2024 (see ASX release 5 August 2024).

The Company’s Managing Director, Rob Watkins commented:

“The extensive 435 line km VTEM survey targeting the extremely underexplored 75km southern Magna Lynn corridor south of Nil Desperandum has unearthed several new high priority conductors at the newly named Droughtmaster, Speckle Park and Charolais Prospects . We thank the Queensland government for their support in funding regional exploration programs in the NW minerals province of Queensland. VTEM has been highly successful in the Greater Duchess region highlighted by the recent discovery of the Mohawk Prospect in late 2024, where the first drill hole recorded 21m @ 2.0% Cu, 0.6g/t Au. We look forward to receiving the processed VTEM data and ground truthing the significance of these newly identified prospects. First pass surface field exploration programs will involve soil and rock geochemistry and mapping followed by first pass drill programs.”

GREATER DUCHESS COPPER GOLD PROJECT

An extensive aerial VTEM survey was completed over the Magna Lynn Southern corridor south of Nil Desperandum, where a total of 435 line km of helicopter VTEM surveying was undertaken at 200m line spacing at three separate locations named St Andrews, Magna Lynn and Makbat (Figure 1).

The VTEM survey was completed by UTS Geophysics and supervised by ExploreGeo. Detailed processing of the VTEM data is underway and is estimated to take approximately one month to receive the final data and images. Due to the requirement to validate and process the data,

only preliminary line data observations can be presented below which have been provided by independent consultant ExploreGeo. These are also tabulated in Table 1 of Appendix 1.

St ANDREWS VTEM SURVEY

The St Andrews VTEM survey consisted of twelve VTEM lines at 200m spacing targeting a major fault conjugate confluence zone and stratigraphic strike change evident in aeromagnetics (Figure 3). The St Andrews Fault is a regional scale NE striking fault that parallels the adjacent Railway Fault that is interpreted to be an important control on the Duchess and Ivanhoe IOCG deposits located 8km to the NE.

SPECKLE PARK PROSPECT

A moderate mid channel conductor has been detected at the newly named Speckle Park Prospect traceable across three consecutive 200m spaced VTEM lines (Figure 2). The anomaly is located under shallow alluvial cover and is located on a major geological boundary between the highly magnetic Corella Formation to the east and potentially the Argylla Formation to the west. This major geological contact is considered to be a highly favourable location for IOCG mineralisation in the district. The Speckle Park VTEM conductors are associated with a discrete 900 nT magnetic anomaly as shown in Figure 2.

Historical exploration in this area was conducted by Mount Isa Mines Limited ( MIM ) in 1990 and consisted of vertical mini RAB drilling on a 300m x 100m grid with a single sample collected at the bottom of each hole. Average depth of the drilling was only 7m and it is unclear whether all holes reached basement below the cover sequence. A maximum result of 2,000 ppm copper from bottom of hole was intersected in STANDREW078 (see publicly available report CR021583 accessible via Geological Survey of Queensland). Full results from the MIM historical RAB drilling program are presented in Table 2 of Appendix 1.

Carnaby will complete first pass reconnaissance of the VTEM anomaly area and undertake early stage mapping and sampling to investigate the significance of this new prospect and the likely source of the VTEM conductor prior to first pass drill programs or ground EM.

MAGNA LYNN VTEM SURVEY

The Magna Lynn VTEM survey was the largest of the three VTEM survey areas and targeted a 20km strike length of the interpreted southern extension of the Nil Desperandum IOCG structural and stratigraphic corridor (Figure 1). This potentially mineralised corridor is essentially unexplored using modern day exploration techniques and very little or no historical exploration has been recorded in this entire area (Figure 1).

A total of 100 consecutive VTEM lines were flown at 200m line spacing covering an area of approximately 77km[2] of the Magna Lynn corridor (Figure 3).

Preliminary analysis of the VTEM data has highlighted at least two areas of apparent basement conductors, each evident over several consecutive 200m spaced VTEM lines as discussed below.

Carnaby expects to receive the final processed VTEM data in approximately one month.

DROUGHTMASTER PROSPECT

A strong late channel conductor has been detected at the newly named Droughtmaster Prospect (Figure 3). The basement conductor is traceable over three consecutive 200m spaced VTEM lines and is spatially coincident with historical copper workings. The copper workings are traceable over 400m of strike with recent rock chip samples collected by Carnaby assaying up to 10% copper (see ASX release 4 July 2024).

No previous systematic exploration has been recorded in this area, including no historical soil sampling or drilling. Carnaby will initially complete first pass reconnaissance programs of mapping, soils and rock chip sampling to verify the significance of this new prospect and the likely source of the strong VTEM conductor prior to a first pass drill program.

CHAROLAIS PROSPECT

A weak to moderate mid channel conductor has been detected at the newly named Charolais Prospect (Figure 3). The basement conductor is traceable over 1km of strike across five consecutive 200m spaced VTEM lines.

No historical exploration has been recorded in this entire area.

The Charolais Prospect is located within the Magna Lynn interpreted structural and stratigraphic IOCG corridor. The Prospect is coincident with a high magnetic unit and favourably located at a major regional scale bend in the stratigraphy from NW striking to NS striking (Figure 3).

Carnaby will complete first pass reconnaissance to the VTEM anomaly and undertake mapping, soils and rock chip sampling to verify the significance of this new prospect and the likely source of the VTEM conductor.

MAKBAT VTEM SURVEY

The Makbat VTEM survey consisted of six VTEM lines at 200m spacing targeting a large previously unexplored circular coincident magnetic and gravity target (Figure 1). Preliminary interpretation of a circular conductor feature evident in the VTEM results and coincident with the circular magnetic and gravity anomaly is a surficial source however, further investigations are required.

VTEM RESULTS DISCUSSION

It should be noted that the relative strength of the VTEM conductors is not necessarily a direct correlation with copper grades because typical copper sulphide (chalcopyrite) is magnitudes less conductive than gangue sulphide (pyrrhotite). This is demonstrable by the previous orientation VTEM lines over the Nil Desperandum Prospect, which generated only a weak to moderate late channel conductor over the known deposit (see ASX release 21 October 2024). Equally, pyrrhotite is not always present as a gangue sulphide mineral in IOCG deposits where pyrite is often the main gangue sulphide, which is not conductive. Therefore, a moderate level or even weak VTEM conductor can be very significant.

The Greater Duchess deposits also have distinct footwall and hangingwall magnetite alteration which can also be highly conductive, as such further investigations are required to determine the exact root cause of the conductors that have been defined.

However, the overwhelming finding from all the electrical geophysics completed to date in the region, including aerial, ground and downhole EM methods, is that electrical geophysics has been working exceptionally well at locating copper bearing mineralisation at Greater Duchess, with a 100% success rate to date. This bodes well for the VTEM conductors that have been generated by the survey that are yet to be drilled, and we look forward to receiving the processed VTEM data and completing first pass field programs and drilling of these high potential targets.

APPENDIX TWO

JORC Code, 2012 Edition | ‘Table 1’ Report

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections)

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling
techniques

Nature and quality of sampling (e.g., cut channels,
random chips, or specific specialised industry
standard measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as down hole
gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc).
These examples should not be taken as limiting
the broad meaning of sampling.

Include reference to measures taken to ensure
sample
representivity
and
the
appropriate
calibration of any measurement tools or systems
used.

Aspects of the determination of mineralisation
that are Material to the Public Report.

In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been
done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse
circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples
from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g
charge for fire assay’). In other cases more
explanation may be required, such as where there
is coarse gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation
types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant
disclosure of detailed information.

The conductors reported are preliminary
interpretations of preliminary data provided to
the company by ExploreGeo Pty Ltd.

This survey was flown by completed by UTS
Geophysics Pty Ltd using a Versatile Time-
Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM Max) system.

VTEM Max was flown covering 435 line km with
200m east-west line spacing and a sensor
height of 35mAGL.

Historic Rotary Air Blast (RAB) holes were
sampled by taking 2-3kg of uncontaminated
bedrock material from the final 1.5m of each
drill hole.
Drilling
techniques

deposit type.

If the relationship between the drilling orientation
and the orientation of key mineralised structures
is considered to have introduced a sampling bias,
this should be assessed and reported if material.

Acknowledgment
and appraisal of
exploration by
other parties.

Acknowledgment and appraisal of
exploration by other parties.

There has been exploration work conducted over the
Greater Duchess project regions for over a century by
previous explorers. The project comes with significant
geoscientific information which covers the tenements and
general region, including: a compiled database of 6658
drill hole (exploration and near-mine), 60,300 drilling
assays and over 50,000 soils and stream sediment
geochemistry results. This previous exploration work is
understood to have been undertaken to an industry
accepted standard and will be assessed in further detail as
the projects are developed.
Geology
Deposit type, geological setting and
style of mineralisation.

The Greater Duchess Project is in the Mary Kathleen
domain of the eastern Fold Belt, Mount Isa Inlier. The
Eastern Fold Belt is well known for copper, gold and
copper-gold deposits; generally considered variants of
IOCG deposits. The region hosts several long-lived mines
and
numerous
historical
workings.
Deposits
are
structurally controlled, forming proximal to district-scale
structures which are observable in mapped geology and
geophysical images. Local controls on the distribution of
mineralisation at the prospect scale can be more variable
and is understood to be dependent on lithological
domains present at the local-scale, and orientation with
respect to structures and the stress-field during D3/D4
deformation, associated with mineralisation.
Most of the mineralised zones are primary with
chalcopyrite being the main copper bearing mineral.
Portions of the Mount Hope deposit have been weathered
resulting in the formation of secondary sulphide minerals
including chalcocite.

The Magna Lynn Southern Corridor is comprised of a
central package of NNW trending stratigraphy including
the Leichhardt Volcanics, Magna Lynn Metabasalt, Argylla
Formation and Stanbroke Sandstone. These units are
bounded to the west by the older Kalkadoon Granite and
to the east by the younger Birds Well and One Tree Granite
Intrusions. NNW trending faults have been interpreted
throughout the tenement as well as smaller NS fault splays.
Occasional major NE and NW trending faults have been
interpreted to transect the northern half of the corridor.

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 clearlystated.

Historic RAB results are reported from a single, 1.5m end
of hole sample taken at each hole.
Average
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’).

The geometry of mineralisation with respect to the
historic RAB drilling is unknown.
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.

See the body of the announcement.
Balanced
reporting

Where comprehensive reporting of all
Exploration Results is not practicable,
representative reporting of both low
and high grades and/or widths should
be practiced to avoid misleading
reportingof Exploration Results.
