ASX Announcement
CLASSIC MINERALS CONFIRMS 80 % GOLD RIGHTS OVER FORRESTANIA GOLD PROJECT TENURE
Classic Minerals Limited (ASX: CLZ, “Classic” or “the Company”) confirms that it holds an 80 % beneficial interest in the gold rights “Gold Rights” across the Forrestania Gold Project (FGP), including the Mining Lease over Lady Ada and Lady Magdalene, in Western Australia. The Company’s interest remains valid and enforceable under the existing legal and tenement framework and forms the foundation of its regional processing and toll-treatment strategy.
Background
Classic was granted the 80% Gold Rights under a Binding Heads of Agreement executed in 2015 with among others Reed Exploration Pty Ltd (a subsidiary of Hannans Ltd). Subsequently Gold Rights were assigned to Classic[1] . The Gold Rights give Classic the right to explore, drill, develop and mine.
Since 2017, Classic has conducted all exploration, drilling, and development activities across the project area, which includes Lady Ada , Lady Magdalene , Storm Breaker , The Matrix , and Van Uden West targets. Furthermore, a Mining Lease (M77/1310) was granted over Lady Ada and Lady Magdalene in 2024[2] .
Tenement Schedule – FGP Gold Rights (80% held by Classic)
| Tenement | Project / Target |
|---|---|
| M77/1310 | Lady Ada / Lady Magdalene |
| E77/2220 | The Matrix |
| E77/2219 | Van Uden West |
| E77/2207 | Tangerine Trees |
| E77/2239 | Storm Breaker |
Confirmation of Rights
As stated in the Company’s ASX announcement dated 3 October 2023 :
“In 2017, Classic acquired 80 % of the gold rights on the FGP Tenements from a third party, with Reed Exploration retaining its 20 % interest in the gold rights associated with the FGP Tenements.”

Operational and Strategic Progress
Classic remains the operator and sole funder of the FGP gold rights and is continuing its program of drilling, development, and corporate consolidation to secure 100 % ownership of the FGP tenure under the Agreement signed on 03 October 2023.
The Company has also executed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)[3] with Bain Global Resources Pty Ltd (“Bain”) to evaluate toll treatment of ore through Classic’s Goldbridge Processing Facility, located approximately 7 km from Bain’s Rama Gold Mine.
This collaboration underpins Classic’s broader Forrestania Gold Hub strategy and demonstrates regional confidence in the processing infrastructure and technical capacity already established at Goldbridge.
In parallel, Classic is also progressing discussions toward a Right-to-Mine (RTM) arrangement with a third party , which would enable the commercial extraction and treatment of ore from within the Forrestania Gold Project under Classic’s gold rights framework.
Legal and Operational Position
Classic continues to pursue its Supreme Court proceeding (CIV 1381/2025) to ensure transfer of full legal title to all the FGP tenements. Regardless of those proceedings, the 80 % gold rights remain valid and enforceable under Western Australian law and provide Classic’s operational basis for ongoing fieldwork and development planning.
Next Steps
Classic will continue advancing:
-
exploration drilling and resource definition at Lady Ada, Lady Magdalene, and priority regional targets (Storm Breaker North, Matrix, Van Uden West);
-
technical and commercial evaluation of the Bain toll-treatment MoU ; and
-
negotiations toward a Right-to-Mine agreement enabling near-term gold production within the Forrestania Gold Project.
ENDS:
This announcement has been authorised by the Board.
