Continuity of Gold Confirmed at Miranda Target

Corporate Highlights

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • 5 drill holes totalling 398m of Reverse Circulation ( RC ) drilling were completed at the Miranda extensional target area.

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • Drilling aimed to test the extents of the Miranda Target, located ~1km north of the planned Stage 1 Starter Pit, by stepping out from previous intersections.

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Miranda Target holes were drilled as part of the greater 4,647m RC near mine extensional drill program completed at the Crawford Gold Project during the fourth quarter of 2025. Significant intercepts from the Miranda area drilling included:

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • 6m at 1.29g/t gold from 27m, inc. 1m at 3.44g/t gold (25CFRC44)

  • 2m at 1.06g/t gold from 61m and 1m at 1.02g/t gold from 77m (25CFRC47)

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • All assay results from the recent Crawford drill program have now been reported.

Daniel Tuffin, Executive Technical Director and CEO, commented:

“This small step-out drill program was designed to test the extents of the Miranda Target, following up on drilling by the Company in 2023. Results from holes 25CFRC44 and 25CFRC47 confirm continuity of gold mineralisation over 100m of strike, a small portion of the 500m extensional corridor target which potentially links into the current Crawford Mineral Resource.

These results, along with those from the Northern and Southern Development Areas, continue to support meaningful long-term upside well beyond the Stage 1 starter pit and current Resource.

Coupled with the recent execution of the Native Title Agreement with the Wangkatja Tjungula Aboriginal Corporation, the Company is now well positioned to continue to progress Stage 1 toward mining operations, while near-mine exploration planned at Miranda and other prospective targets throughout 2026 will continue to underpin the project’s long-term growth potential well beyond the current project life.”

Cautionary Statement:

The production target and forecast financial information referred to in this announcement comprise Indicated Mineral Resources (99.8%) and Inferred Mineral Resources (0.2%) within the planned Stage 1 starter pit at the Crawford Gold Project. There is a low-level of geological confidence associated with Inferred mineral resources and there is no certainty that further exploration work will result in the determination of Indicated mineral resources or that the production target itself will be realised.

Miranda Area Drill Results:

The Miranda Target Area is located 1km along strike to the north-northwest of the Stage 1 Starter Pit (see Figure 1 ).

Previous Cavalier drilling in this area in 2023 was wide spaced and reconnaissance in nature with 23CFRC0002 returning intersections of:

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

4m at 0.85g/t gold from 26m, including: 1m at 2.31g/t gold from 28m 5m at 1.08g/t gold from 77m, including: 1m at 3.07g/t gold from 81m 1m at 1.35g/t gold from 93m

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

The recent round of step out drilling in this area aimed to systematically test mineralisation extents along strike and across section as a precursor to future drilling programmes which would infill drilling to the extent required to support a Mineral Resource Estimate.

A total of 5 holes were drilled in this area for 398m as detailed in Appendices 1 and 2, with best results including:

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

6m at 1.29g/t gold from 27m, inc. 1m at 3.44g/t gold (25CFRC44)

==> picture [9 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

2m at 1.06g/t gold from 61m and 1m at 1.02g/t gold from 77m (25CFRC47)

These results from the Miranda drilling define continuous mineralisation over a strike length of over 100m of along trend of the Crawford Mineral Resource, of which the current northern end sits some 700m to the southeast of Miranda.

Only limited previous drilling has been carried out between Crawford and Miranda and these new results aid in defining the mineralised structures for future drill targeting.

Previous drilling may have missed these structures as mineralisation is now confirmed to be hosted in discrete, steeply dipping lodes. It is likely closer spaced drilling is required to identify and delineate mineralisation.

Mineralisation remains open along strike and depth in this area with no drilling carried out for over 400m along strike to the north of Miranda.

All assay results from the 4,647m RC near mine extensional drill program completed at the Crawford Gold Project during the fourth quarter of 2025 have now been reported. There are no further outstanding results, and current activities comprise updating of the geological model for the Crawfords deposit and planning follow up drilling.

Revised Pre-Feasibility Study

The Company completed a revised Pre-Feasibility Study ( PFS ) in April 2025, incorporating the prevailing gold prices at that time and updating the mining and heap leach capital cost estimates. The physical pit design of Stage 1 and the subsequent Ore Reserve estimate remained unchanged for the purposes of the update.

The key outputs of the revised PFS are set out in Table 1 overleaf and include a range of comparisons based on various gold prices, all of which are well below the current spot price.

Crawford Ore Reserve

The Ore Reserve relates specifically to the conversion of Indicated Resources to Probable Ore Reserves only within the Crawford Stage 1 pit design and includes consideration of the modifying factors.

Table 2: Crawford Ore Reserve

Reserve Classification Ore Tonnes Gold (g/t) Gold Produced (Oz)
Probable 1,002kt 0.91 29,300
Total 1,002kt 0.91 29,300

Some errors may occur due to rounding. Mineral Resources are reported inclusive of Ore Reserves. Ore Reserves are based on a gold price of $2,900/oz. A cut-off grade of 0.3g/t was calculated based on the base case cost and processing recovery inputs and was used to generate the production schedule and calculate the Ore Reserve. Note that Ore Reserves are susceptible to geological, economic, geotechnical, permitting, metallurgical, mining, processing and other factors.

Appendix 3: JORC Table 1

JORC Table 1 Section 1

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 downhole
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 (e.g. ‘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 (e.g.
submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailed information.
Sampling of Reverse Circulation (RC) drill holes was
comprised of one metre (1m) cone split samples, as
drilled. Approximately 3.0kg of sample was collected over
each sampled interval. Sampling techniques are
considered to be in line with the standard industry
practice and are considered to be representative.
Cavalier Resources RC chip samples are crushed, dried
and pulverised to a nominal 90% passing 75µm to
produce a 50g sub sample for analysis by FA/AAS.
All drill holes are accurately located and referenced with
grid coordinates recorded in the standard MGA94
Zone51 grid system. Samples are collected using a
standard face hammer, they are split/bagged/logged at
the drill site. Samples were Fire Assayed (50-gram
charge) for Au only.
All samples and drilling procedures are carried out in
accordance with Cavalier Resources sampling and
QAQC procedures as per industry standard.
Drilling
techniques
• Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole
hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc)
and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or standard
tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or
other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by
what method, etc).
Surface drilling was completed by standard RC drilling
techniques. RC drilling used a face-sampling hammer
over a 94mm diameter drill hole with samples collected
using a cone splitter for 1m composites.
Drill sample
recovery
• Method of recording and assessing core and chip
sample recoveries and results assessed.
• Measures taken to maximise sample recovery
and ensure representative nature of the samples.
• Whether a relationship exists between sample
recovery and grade and whether sample bias may
have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of
fine/coarse material.
Sample recovery is measured and monitored by the drill
contractor and Cavalier representatives, where bag
volume is visually estimated and recorded as a
percentage. Sample recovery was generally very good.
The volume of sample collected for assay is considered
to represent a composite sample. Sample recovery is
maximized by using best-practice drill techniques,
whereby the hammer is pulled back at the completion of
each metre and the entire 1m sample is blown back
through the rod string. Known standards are inserted at
constant intervals at a rate of four per one hundred
samples.
Measures were taken to suppress groundwater and
minimize moisture within samples. Samples were
collected and stored in numbered calico bags and
removed from the field daily.
No relationship was observed between sample recovery
and grade.

Criteria JORC Code Explanation Commentary
Logging • Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of
detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource
estimation, mining studies and metallurgical
studies.
• Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in
nature.
Logging of RC chips records lithology, mineralogy,
texture, mineralisation, weathering, alteration, veining,
grid coordinates, sample interval and depth. Data is
physically and electronically logged and stored. The level
of logging detail is considered appropriate for exploration
drilling. Logging of geology and colour are interpretative
and qualitative, whereas logging of mineral percentage is
quantitative. Chips from all RC holes are stored in chip
trays for future reference.
Sub-sampling
techniques and
sample
preparation
• If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter,
half or all core taken.
• If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary
split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry.
• For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness
of
the
sample
preparation
technique.
• Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-
sampling stages to maximise representivity of
samples.
• Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is
representative of the in-situ material collected,
including
for
instance
results
for
field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
• Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain
size of the material being sampled.
See Sampling techniques in the above section.
The sample collection methodology is considered
appropriate for RC drilling and is within today’s standard
industry practice. Split one metre sample (1m) results are
regarded as reliable and representative. RC samples are
split with cone splitter at one metre intervals as drilled.
Analysis was conducted by Intertek Perth At the
laboratory, samples are dried, crushed and pulverised
until the sample is homogeneous. Analysis technique for
gold (only) was a Fire Assay 50- gram charge AAS finish
(Lab method FA50/0E04).
Most samples were collected dry; on occasion ground
water was encountered and a minimal number of samples
were collected wet. It was, however, not considered by
Cavalier to be of sufficient concentration to affect the
sampling process. Field standards were submitted with
the sample batch, the assay laboratory (Intertek) also
included their own internal checks and balances
consisting of repeats and standards; repeatability and
standard results were within acceptable limits.
No
issues
have
been
identified
with
sample
representatively.
The
sample
size
is
considered
appropriate for this type of mineralisation style.
Quality of assay
data and
laboratory tests
• The nature, quality and appropriateness of the
assaying and laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered partial or total.
• For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld
XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in
determining the analysis including instrument make
and model, reading times, calibrations factors
applied and their derivation, etc.
• Nature of quality control procedures adopted (e.g.
standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory
checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy
(i.e. lack of bias) and precision have been
established.
Geochemical analysis of RC chip samples was
conducted by Intertek in Perth. Sample preparation
included drying the samples (105°C) and pulverising to
85% passing 75µm. Samples were then riffle split to
secure a sample charge of 50 grams. Analysis was via
Fire Assay with AAS finish. Only gold analysis was
conducted (ppm detection). The analytical process and
the level of detection are considered appropriate for this
stage of exploration.
Fire assay is regarded as a complete digest technique.
No geophysical tools were used to determine any
element concentrations.
Internal laboratory quality control procedures have been
adopted. Certified reference material in the form of
standards and duplicates are periodically imbedded in the
sample batch by Cavalier at a ratio of 1:15.

electronically in the company database using Cavaliers
protocols. The sampling and assay data has been
compiled,
verified,
and
interpreted
by
company
geologists.
No holes were twinned. No adjustments, averaging or
calibrations are made to any of the assay data recorded
in the database. QA/QC protocol is considered industry
standard with standard reference material submitted on a
routine basis.
Location of data
points
Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill
holes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches,
mine workings and other locations used in Mineral
Resource estimation.
• Specification of the grid system used.
• Quality and adequacy of topographic control
Drill hole collars were located and recorded in the field
using a handheld GPS with a three metre or better
accuracy. The grid coordinate system utilised is GDA94
Zone51. Hole locations were visually checked on ground
and against historic plans for spatial verification. No
topographic control (i.e., RL) was required, a nominal field
RL of 380 to 385m is assumed for the ground surface.
Data spacing
and distribution
• Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.
• Whether the data spacing and distribution is
sufficient to establish the degree of geological and
grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource
and
Ore
Reserve
estimation
procedure(s) and classifications applied.
• Whether sample compositing has been applied.
The drill hole spacing is project specific; the RC drilling
patterns employed were dependent on previous drilling
and geological interpretation. The sample spacing is
considered close enough to identify significant zones of
gold mineralisation. The drill program is a follow
up/ongoing exploration exercise that was designed to
identify areas of geological interest and extensions to
known mineralisation at the Crawford deposit. Closer
spaced drilling on surrounding cross sections may be
required to further delineate the extent, size and
geometry of some areas within the identified zones of
gold mineralisation. The AC drilling pattern employed was
on a 200m x 100m spaced grid for the purpose of
sterilisation of areas planned for future infrastructure as
part of the Stage 1 open pit development.
Drill spacing and drill technique is sufficient to establish
the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate
for the mineral resources and ore reserve estimation
procedures and classifications applied, however the
mineralised system remains open and additional infill
drilling is required to close off and confirm its full extent,
particularly at depth.
Samples were taken at 1m intervals, and no sample
compositingwas applied.
Orientation of
data in relation
to geological
structure
• Whether the orientation of sampling achieves
unbiased sampling of possible structures and the
extent to which this is known, considering the
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.
Drilling within the central Crawford project area was both
vertical (-90 degrees), to intersect generally flat lying
mineralisation, and also at -60 degrees dip to intersect
interpreted
steeply
dipping
mineralisation.
No
relationship between mineralised structure and drilling
orientation has biased the sample.

Sample security • The measures taken to ensure sample security. Samples are prepared on site under supervision of
Cavaliergeological staff. Samples are selected,bagged
into tied numbered calico bags then grouped securely
and collected by a dedicated freight company directly to
the laboratory. Sample submissions are documented via
laboratory tracking systems and assays are returned via
email.
Audits or reviews • The results of any audits or reviews of sampling
techniques and data.
Sampling methodologies and assay techniques used in
this drilling program are considered to be mineral
exploration industry standard and any audits or reviews
are not considered necessary at this early exploration
stage. No audits or reviews have been conducted at this
stage apartfrom internal reviews andfield quality control.

• Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by
other parties.
Previous exploration was completed by Goldfields
Exploration, Newcrest, Golden State Resources, Roman
Kings, Kingwest Resources and Specrez Resources.
Drilling by previous explorers resulted in the identification

broad zones of intense alteration.
Historic work is of a generally good standard and has
been used in the Mineral Resource Estimate for
Crawford.
Geology • Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.
The Crawford Deposit is hosted in an intensely altered
(sericite‐fuchsite‐silica‐carbonate‐sulphide) shear zone
within the eastern boundary of the Keith-Kilkenny
Tectonic Zone (KKTZ).
Gold mineralisation is disseminated in the vicinity of the
shears and localized within them. Quartz is present as
fine
veins,
associated
with
pyrite,
gold,
silver,
arsenopyrite and minor scheelite in the shear zone.
Within the weathered zone there has been remobilisation
and depletion of gold resulting in the formation of
horizontal supergene zones of elevatedgold

Drillhole
Information
A summary of all information material to the
understanding of the exploration results including
a tabulation of the following information for all
Material drill holes:
• easting and northing of the drill hole collar
• elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above
sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar
• dip and azimuth of the hole
• down hole length and intercept depth
• hole length
• If the exclusion of this information is justified on
the basis that the information is not Material and
this
exclusion
does
not
detract
from
the
understanding of the report, the Competent Person
should clearlyexplain whythis is the case.
The location of all drillholes is presented as part of the
significant intersection table in the body of the report.
Significant down hole gold intersections were reported in
the table of intersections. All hole depths referred to down
hole depth in metres. All hole collars are GDA94 Zone51
positioned. Elevation is a nominal estimate. Drill holes are
measured from the collar of the hole to the bottom of the
hole.
Data aggregation
methods
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting
averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum
grade truncations (eg 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.
All significant intercepts have been length weighted with
a minimum Au grade of 0.4ppm. No high grade cut off has
been applied. Intercepts are aggregated with minimum
width of 1m and maximum width of 2m for internal
dilution.
There are no metal equivalents reported in this release.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept lengths
• These relationships are particularly important
when reporting 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 (eg ‘down hole length, true width not
known’).
Generally, the mineralised intervals are close to the true
width, especially so for vertical holes within the oxide
zone.
Oxide mineralisation at Crawford is modelled as
horizontal.

The impact of outliers in the sample distributions used to
inform each domain was reduced by the use of grade
capping. Grade capping was applied on a domain scale
and a combination of analytical tools such as histograms
of grade, Coefficient of Variation (COV) analysis and log
probability plots were used to determine the grade caps
for each domain.
A top cut of 10 g/t was used
A Parent block size was selected at 5mE x 10mN x

Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource based on data
quality, sample spacing, and lode continuity.
The input data is comprehensive in its coverage of the
mineralisation and does not favour or misrepresent in-
situ mineralisation. The definition of oxide mineralised
zones is based on high level geological understanding
producing a robust model of mineralised domains. This
model has been confirmed by infill drilling which
supported the interpretation. Validation of the block

Complete extraction of ore within pit designs is planned.
Ore will be trucked directly from its mined location to the ROM pad on the
surface.
Waste material will be stockpiled on the surface adjacent to the pit.
No drill and blast operations will be required, cross ripping by dozers may be
required.
Mining will be undertaken in two stages to reduce pre-stripping period.
An overall wall angle of 38° has been proposed based on completed
geotechnical studies.
The pit design contains benches up to a maximum of 20m high at a batter
angle of 45° with a 5m wide berm at the 365, 345 and 325mRL.
Mining recovery of 95% was applied to the optimisations, production schedule
and Ore Reserve.
A mining dilution factor of 10% was applied to the optimisations, production
schedule and Ore Reserve.
Inferred material was treated as waste during optimisations, designs and
scheduling.
As heap leaching is the proposed method of processing, no tailings storage
facility will be required.

and
The level of study carried out as part of this Ore Reserve is to a Pre-
Feasibility Study level. The relative accuracy of the estimate is reflected in
the reporting of the Ore Reserves as per the guidelines re: modifying factors,
study levels and Competent Persons contained in the JORC 2012 Code.
This statement relates to global estimates of tonnes and grade.
Sensitivity studies were carried out. Standard linear deviations were
observed.
Globally, the project is susceptible to fluctuations in commodity price.
