Background to Disposal of the Main Undertaking
Background
The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Zanthus Resources Pty Ltd ( Zanthus ), holds an 85% interest in the Yarraloola Joint Venture which comprises the Robe Mesa Project. The Robe Mesa Project is an iron ore, low strip ratio, low capex Direct Shipping Ore (DSO) project, with a rapid, lowcost path to production. The Robe Mesa Project has an Ore Reserve of 33.4Mt at 55% Fe (61.6% Fe.ca).[ 1] Refer to the Company's announcement on the ASX market announcements platform on 10 October 2023 for further information.
1 The information in this Notice relating to the Ore Reserves has been extracted from the Company's announcement on the ASX market announcements platform on 10 October 2023. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the previous announcement and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the previous announcement continue to apply and have not materially changed.
3
In addition to the Robe Mesa Project, the Company also holds a majority interest in the following mineral projects in Western Australia, which are held in a joint-venture with the Company's major shareholder, Mr Mark Creasy (via entities controlled by Mr Mark Creasy):
(a) Croydon Project (70%)
The Croydon Gold Project is located in the Mallina Basin between Karratha and Port Hedland. The region contains De Grey Mining Limited’s Hemi gold deposit with a recently updated and increased JORC Resource of 10.5 Moz Au (refer to De Grey Mining Limited's announcement on the ASX market announcements platform on 21 November 2023). The Mallina Basin has the potential to emerge as a major gold province and the Company's Croydon Project covers approximately 40km strike of the Mallina Basin, about 50km south-east of Hemi.
Gold mineralisation at Hemi is hosted in a series of intermediate intrusions associated with sulphide (pyrite and arsenopyrite) stringers and disseminations within brecciated and altered quartz diorites that intrude into the surrounding Archaean aged Mallina Basin sediments. The Company's Croydon Project has a similar geochemical signature, with very strong gold and arsenic in soil anomalies, particularly at the Top Camp prospect where initial drilling returned primary gold mineralisation, including:
-
8m at 10.2g/t Au from 135m in CRC007;
-
2m at 22g/t Au from 7m in CRC021; and
-
28m at 0.6g/t Au from 147m in CRC022.
During FY23, the Company completed a ground-based gravity survey, targeting large intrusions that may host gold mineralisation similar to Hemi. Two target areas were assessed:
-
Western Target : Known gold mineralisation from drilling at Top Camp, Bottom Camp and Franks Patch with strong gold and arsenic soil geochemistry. Mineralisation is hosted in overlying Malina Sediments, with gravity survey to test for buried intrusions beneath the sediments.
-
Eastern Target : Similar structural and lithological setting to Hemi, with ultramafic and felsic intrusions in an area of structural complexity. Due to shallow sand cover, there is little to no outcrop or surface geochemical response, but minor gold occurrences at the Murph and Martin prospects.
Initial survey results have identified gravity anomalies along a NE trend, confirming the prospectivity of Eastern Targets in a similar geological setting to Hemi. Gravity results from the Western Target require further infill and terrain correction due to the steep topography (Eastern Target is relatively flat). Interpretation of the preliminary results indicate a series of folds with gold mineralisation from previous drilling at Top Camp associated with a gravity high anomaly.
The Company has designed a drill program to initially test the gravity high associated with the primary gold mineralisation at Top Camp. Once this drilling is complete and the geological and mineralisation units mapped, further gravity targets will be drill tested. The Company has also designed a series of aircore drill traverses across the Eastern Targets to better inform the geology and significance of the gravity anomalies, before testing with reverse circulation and/or diamond drilling.
Further details on the Croydon Project are detailed in the Company's Annual Report for the period ended 30 June 2023 as released on the ASX market announcements platform on 22 September 2023.
If Resolution 1 is passed and the Proposed Transaction proceeds, the Company proposes to use a portion of consideration received from the Proposed Transaction to advance exploration on the Croydon Project, and will continue to develop and explore the Other Projects and look for new opportunities.

(b) Buddadoo Project (85%)
The Buddadoo Copper-Vanadium Project covers an area of 303km[2] , approximately 200km east of Geraldton and 60km from a rail siding at Morawa. The tenements are accessible all year by bitumen-road and is prospective for orogenic lode-style gold (Deflector Gold Mine – 5km west) and VMS style base metal deposits (Golden Grove 40km east). The Buddadoo Project covers approximately 25km of the regional-scale Salt Creek shear zone and also contains a 6km long, 300m wide gabbro with bands of coarse-grained, massive and disseminated, vanadium rich titanomagnetite (VTM). The Buddadoo mafic complex is located within the emerging Mid-West vanadium province, close to Australian Vanadium Limited (AVL) proposed processing plant (190km) and the port of Geraldton (230km).
A total of 57 holes for 6,176m have been drilled into Buddadoo mafic complex, with two mineralised zones identified. Significant results include 188m at 0.34% V2O5 from the Main Zone and 22m at 0.47% V2O5 from the Eastern Zone. The Company completed metallurgical test work in 2018 and 2019, with high quality concentrates produced. At -45 microns, which is typically an optimal feedstock grain-size for either roast-leach or iron-ore pellets, Davis Tube Wash (DTW) produces magnetite concentrates from screened Buddadoo RC samples with Fe from 66 to 68%, V2O5 from 0.8 to 1.86%, TiO2 from 1.4 to 5.7%, contaminants SiO2 and Al2O3 at less than 1% and mass yields up to 46%. Refer to the Company's announcement on the ASX markets announcement platform on 7 February 2019 for further information.
The focus of current work being undertaken by the Company is to generate geological, geochemical and metallurgical data that can be utilised for the generation of a JORC-compliant Mineral Resource and scoping study for a mining and processing operation. The results from the metallurgical work will be used to determine whether the optimum business model for Buddadoo is the production of either a vanadiferous titanomagnetite concentrate for shipping (DSO) from the port of Geraldton or justifies the development of a standalone or shared downstream processing facility.
Further details on the Buddadoo Project are detailed in the Company's Quarterly Activity Report for the period ended 30 September 2023 as released on the ASX market announcements platform on 31 October 2023, and the Company's Annual Report for the period ended 30 June 2023 as released on the ASX market announcements platform on 22 September 2023.
If Resolution 1 is passed and the Proposed Transaction proceeds, the Company proposes to use a portion of consideration received from the Proposed Transaction to advance exploration on the Buddadoo Project, and will continue to develop and explore the Other Projects and look for new opportunities.
(c) Ashburton Magnetite Project (85%)
Ashburton Magnetite deposit is an 11km long, outcropping magnetite schist, located 20km north of the Company's Robe Mesa Project, 50km south of Citic Pacific’s Sino Iron magnetite mine and close to critical energy, water and transport infrastructure.
An extensive technical review completed by the Company during the September 2023 quarter found Ashburton has the potential to become a substantial deposit, capable of producing highquality magnetite concentrate. Refer to the Company's announcement on the ASX market announcements platform on 2 August 2023 for further information.
Drilling at the Ashburton Magnetite deposit, undertaken from 2014-2016, included 29 reverse circulation (RC) and 3 diamond drill holes for 7,349m, intersecting extensive magnetite mineralisation. Comprehensive Davis Tube Recovery (DTR) and bench-scale magnetic separation test work has been completed on drill hole samples, with concentrates reporting +65% Fe on a mass yield ranging from 26% to 39% from magnetite separation.
The review has resulted in an Exploration Target of 450Mt – 880Mt at 24-30% Fe, generating a magnetite concentrate of 65-68% Fe at a 25-30% mass yield, based on geological modelling of drill holes to a depth of 200m, guided by magnetic and gravity data and metallurgical test work. The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature as
5
there has been insufficient work completed to estimate a Mineral Resource. It remains uncertain that further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.
Further details on the Ashburton Magnetite Project are detailed in the Company's Quarterly Activity Report for the period ended 30 September 2023 as released on the ASX market announcements platform on 31 October 2023.
The Ashburton Magnetite Project has been excluded from the Proposed Transaction, which is further described in Section 2.2.
If Resolution 1 is passed and the Proposed Transaction proceeds, the Company proposes to use a portion of consideration received from the Proposed Transaction to advance exploration on the Ashburton Magnetite Project, and will continue to develop and explore the Other Projects and look for new opportunities.
(d) Shepherd's Well Project (70%)
The Shepherd’s Well Project is a multi-commodity (Gold, Nickel and Rare Earths) prospect which covers an area of 77km[2] , located 60km south-west of Karratha and covers 15km of a regional shear zone. The Shepherd’s Well Project’s geology is dominated by mafic volcanics and sediments to west of the shear and a granitic intrusion to the east. All these rocks are overlain in parts by sub-horizontal rocks from the Fortescue Group that forms the base of the Hammersley Basin.
The Company has completed programmes of surface sampling and mapping along sections of the shear zone identifying a nickel prospect at Dorper, a lead-zinc prospect at Suffolk and a rare-earth prospect at Awassi. Refer to the Company's announcements on the ASX market announcements platform on 21 March 2017, 13 September 2016, 11 October 2017 and 25 November 2019 for further information.
Further details on the Shepherd's Well Project are detailed in the Company's Annual Report for the period ended 30 June 2023 as released on the ASX market announcements platform on 22 September 2023.
If Resolution 1 is passed and the Proposed Transaction proceeds, the Company proposes to use a portion of consideration received from the Proposed Transaction to advance exploration on the Shepherd's Well Project, and will continue to develop and explore the Other Projects and look for new opportunities.
(e) Yarrie Project (70%)
The Yarrie Iron Ore Project covers a total of 144km[2] , about 160km east of Port Hedland. Yarrie is serviced by bitumen and gravel roads, a natural gas pipeline between Pt Hedland and the Telfer coppergold mine, and a BHP-owned rail connection between Yarrie mining area and Port Hedland.
The Yarrie Project tenements are held for their potential to host high-grade (+62% Fe) ironore and have historical high-grade RC drill intercepts at the Cabbage Tree and Kennedy Gap (Y10N) prospects. Refer to the Company's announcement on the ASX market announcements platform on 6 August 2014 for further information. The Company has completed a geophysical review of the Yarrie Project assessing priority iron ore and non-iron ore exploration targets. This resulted in partial tenement relinquishments, with a focus on priority iron ore and rare earth element (REE) targets. The Company has submitted a program of work and heritage clearance notification to drill test some of these targets.
Further details on the Yarrie Project are detailed in the Company's Annual Report for the period ended 30 June 2023 as released on the ASX market announcements platform on 22 September 2023.
If Resolution 1 is passed and the Proposed Transaction proceeds, the Company proposes to use a portion of consideration received from the Proposed Transaction to advance exploration
6
on the Yarrie Project, and will continue to develop and explore the Other Projects and look for new opportunities,
(together, the Other Projects ).
For further information on the Robe Mesa Project and the Other Projects, please refer to the Company's website (https://www.czrresources.com/) and announcements on the ASX market announcements platform.
The Other Projects do not form part of the Proposed Transaction.

Proposed Transaction
On 11 January 2024, the Company announced that it had entered into a share sale agreement ( Share Sale Agreement ) with Miracle Iron pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell, and Miracle Iron has agreed to purchase, 100% of the issued share capital in Zanthus, and indirectly its controlling interest in the Robe Mesa Project ( Proposed Transaction ).
Miracle Iron, based in Perth, Western Australia, is an emerging resource development company. Its parent company, Shenzhen Naaojianglan Investment Co. Ltd. ( SNIC ), is headquartered in Shenzhen City, China. SNIC is the investment subsidiary of Xinjiang Jiangna Mining Corporation Limited ( XJMC ), a Chinese incorporated company with total assets of over USD$800m as at 30 September 2023.
The Proposed Transaction is subject to various conditions precedent including, but not limited to, Shareholder approval for the purposes sought in Resolution 1, Miracle Iron obtaining approval from the Foreign Investments Review Board and regulatory approvals from the People's Republic of China in relation to the Proposed Transaction. Refer to Schedule 1 of this Notice for further information.
The total consideration for the Proposed Transaction is A$102,000,000, which comprises of:
-
(a) A$81,600,000 payable at Completion ( Completion Cash Payment ); and
-
(b) A$20,400,000 payable on the earlier of 30 June 2025 or the first commercial shipment of iron ore mined from M08/519 or M08/533 being loaded onto a vessel for export ( Deferred Amount ). This Deferred Amount will be secured against the assets and shares of Zanthus.
Up until Completion occurs or the 'sunset date' for the satisfaction of the conditions precedent (being, 31 May 2024, unless otherwise extended in accordance with the Share Sale Agreement) ( Sunset Date ), Miracle Iron will provide funding to Zanthus of up to $3.9 million to cover the expenditure of the Robe Mesa Project during the pre-completion period ( Budget Expenditure Amount ).
The Company has also obtained a parent company guarantee from XJMC to guarantee Miracle Iron's obligations under the Share Sale Agreement.
In consideration of the Company providing certain exclusivity rights to Miracle Iron, Miracle Iron has agreed to pay the Company an exclusivity fee of A$1,000,000 subject to Miracle Iron receiving regulatory approval from the People's Republic of China. Miracle Iron's exclusivity rights (which are further detailed in Schedule 1 of the Notice) require the Company, amongst other things, not to engage with third parties during the exclusivity period, subject to customary fiduciary carveouts. The exclusivity period commences on the date of the Share Sale Agreement and expires on the earlier of Completion, the Sunset Date and the date the Share Sale Agreement is terminated.
A summary of the material terms of the Share Sale Agreement is set out in Schedule 1 of this Notice.
Additionally, the Company has also entered into an agreement with SQ1 Group Pty Ltd ( SQ1 ) as an adviser to the Proposed Transaction and has agreed to pay SQ1 a fee equal to 2.3% of the cash consideration actually received by the Company from Miracle Iron for the Proposed Transaction provided the Proposed Transaction completes within 12 months of the initial introduction which occurred in October 2023 ( SQ1 Fee ).

Rationale
The Company has undertaken a strategic review of its operations and has resolved to enter into the Proposed Transaction to dispose of its interest in Zanthus, and consequently the Robe Mesa Project, based on the following considerations:
-
(a) (Premium) the total consideration for the Proposed Transaction, being $102 million is equal to approximately $0.43 per Share (on an undiluted basis, excluding costs and taxes), and represents a significant premium to the Company's current market capitalisation:
-
(i) 120% premium to the Company's 10-day VWAP;
-
(ii) 93% premium to the Company's 30-day VWAP;
-
(iii) 130% premium to the Company's 90-day VWAP; and
-
(iv) 112% premium to the Company's last capital raising (refer to the Company's announcement on the ASX market announcements platform dated 5 October 2022);
-
(b) (Other Projects) the Proposed Transaction allows the Company to release any additional working capital and focus on its Other Projects; and
-
(c) (No dilution) the Proposed Transaction funding will allow the Company to meaningfully advance its exploration and Other Projects without the need for further dilutive capital raisings.
With the above considerations in mind, the Board has resolved to instead focus on its Other Projects and any other potential exploration opportunities in Australia.
==> picture [15 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
Advantages and Disadvantages of the Proposed Transaction
The Board believes that the following non-exhaustive list of advantages and disadvantages, together with the rationale points above may be relevant to a Shareholder's decision on how to vote on Resolution 1:
-
(a) the Proposed Transaction produces an imminent financial outcome and lower risk alternative for Shareholders as compared to the Company developing the Robe Mesa Project itself when both debt and equity would have to be considered to advance the project;
-
(b) proceeds from the Proposed Transaction will enable the Company to focus on its Other Projects and on its extensive exploration interests, which the Board believes have the potential to add significant future value for Shareholders, as well as other potential exploration opportunities in Australia;
-
(c) the Company will be well funded, and will avoid dilutionary capital raisings in a currently challenging traditional capital market for junior resource stocks;
-
(d) monetisation of the Robe Mesa Project gives the Board the option to make a return of capital, or pay a special dividend to Shareholders consistent with its stated objectives; and
-
(e) there are currently no proposed changes to the Board and/or senior management of the Company as part of, or in connection with, the Proposed Transaction, thus preserving the collective experience and intellectual knowledge within the Company for the ongoing benefit of Shareholders.
The Board believes that a potential disadvantage that may be relevant to a Shareholder's decision on how to vote on Resolution 1 is that the Proposed Transaction involves the Company disposing of its Robe Mesa Project, being its main undertaking and cornerstone project, which may not be consistent with the investment objectives of all Shareholders.
==> picture [15 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
Directors' recommendation and voting intention
The Board considers that the Proposed Transaction is in the best interest of Shareholders, and unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1 in the absence of a Superior Proposal.
8
Each member of the Board will vote, or procure the voting of, any Shares held or controlled by them or held on their behalf in favour of Resolution 1 in the absence of a Superior Proposal.

Resolution 1 – Disposal of Main Undertaking
General
Listing Rule 11.2 requires a listed company to obtain the approval of its shareholders to a disposal of its main undertaking. The Proposed Transaction, if completed, is a disposal of the Company's main undertaking, namely the Robe Mesa Project, for these purposes.
Resolution 1 seeks the required Shareholder approval to the Proposed Transaction under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 11.2.
Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.
The Chair intends to vote all available undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1.
If Resolution 1 is passed and the conditions to the Proposed Transaction are satisfied or waived, the Company will be able to proceed with the Proposed Transaction and:
-
(a) the Company will cease to hold an interest in Zanthus and the Robe Mesa Project;
-
(b) the Company will receive the Completion Cash Payment and will be entitled to receive the Deferred Amount; and
-
(c) the Company will focus on advancing and developing its Other Projects in Western Australia and will consider other exploration and development opportunities.
If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the Proposed Transaction and:
-
(a) the Company will maintain its interest in Zanthus and consequently the Robe Mesa Project;
-
(b) the Company will have to continue to fund its share of the Robe Mesa Project, which may include raising additional capital which may have a dilutionary effect on Shareholders;
-
(c) any Budget Expenditure Amounts paid by Miracle Iron for the benefit of Zanthus during the period prior to Completion must be repaid by Zanthus (and if Zanthus does not repay, the Company must repay) within 10 business days of the earlier to occur of:
-
(i) the date that the Company or its Related Bodies Corporate enters into a Competing Proposal; and
-
(ii) on completion of the first capital raising (of at least the lesser of $4,000,000 or the amounts advanced by Miracle Iron pursuant to the budget) undertaken by the Company or its Related Bodies Corporate after the termination of the Share Sale Agreement. Under the Share Sale Agreement, the Company is required to undertake a capital raising (of at least the lesser of $4,000,000 or the amounts advanced by Miracle Iron pursuant to the budget) within three months of the Share Sale Agreement being terminated;
-
(d) the Company may seek alternative opportunities to dispose of the Robe Mesa Project; and
-
(e) the Company will continue to focus on advancing and developing its Other Projects and will consider other exploration opportunities.

Specific Information Required by ASX
Pursuant to and in accordance with section 7.2 of ASX Guidance Note 12, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:
- (a) Parties
The parties to the Proposed Transaction are the Company and Miracle Iron.
9
(b) Financial effect of the Proposed Transaction on the Company
An unaudited proforma statement of financial position has been prepared based on the Company's unaudited consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 November 2023, which sets out the financial effects the Proposed Transaction is expected to have on the Company and is included as Schedule 2.
(c)
Effect of interests of Shareholders
The Proposed Transaction will not impact the capital structure of the Company or the holdings of Shareholders in the Company.
(d)
Change to business model
Following Completion, the Company intends to continue to develop its Other Projects as a mineral exploration company focused on strategic and critical minerals (including iron ore, gold, magnetite, copper-vanadium, nickel and rare earth elements).
Listing Rule 12.1 requires that an entity's operations are sufficient to continue quotation of its securities and its listing. The Company has obtained confirmation from ASX that its existing and planned exploration activities on its Other Projects as a mining exploration entity are sufficient to continue quotation of its securities and its listing.

-
4 ( Fiduciary Exception ) The no-talk and no-due diligence restrictions do not apply to the extent they restrict the Company or the Board from taking or refusing to take any action with respect to a bona fide Competing Proposal (which was not solicited, invited, facilitated, encouraged or initiated by the Company or its associates (or their representatives) in a contravention of the Share Sale Agreement), provided that the Board has determined, acting in good faith, that:
-
(a) the Competing Proposal is or could reasonably be considered to become a Superior Proposal; and
-
(b) after receiving written legal advice from the Company's external legal advisers, failing to respond to the Competing Proposal would be reasonably likely to constitute a breach of the Board's fiduciary duties or statutory obligations.

Each successive material modification of any third party expression of interest, offer or proposal in relation to a Competing Proposal will constitute a new Competing Proposal.

-

-

The Exclusivity Fee is a nonrefundable fee paid by Miracle Iron as consideration for the Company entering into and granting the exclusivity rights in favour of Miracle Iron. The Exclusivity Fee shall only be repayable by the Company to Miracle Iron if the Share Sale Agreement is terminated because the Company pursues a Competing Proposal or the Company changes its recommendation (refer to paragraphs 10(b), 10(c) and 10(d) for further details).
9 ( Budget Expenditure Amount ) Until Completion, the Company and Zanthus will incur expenditures in accordance with an agreed budget for the benefit of Zanthus up to $3,900,000. Miracle Iron will pay into Zanthus's account the forecast expenditure amounts for each relevant month in the agreed budget (or such other revised amount as may be agreed between the parties). If Completion occurs, all budget expenditure amounts will remain due by Zanthus to Miracle Iron. However if the Share Sale Agreement is terminated such that Completion does not occur, Zanthus must repay (and if Zanthus doesn't repay, the Company must repay) all budget expenditure amounts within 10 business days of a Competing Proposal being entered into or the next capital raising (of at least the lesser of $4,000,000 or the amounts advanced by Miracle Iron pursuant to the budget) after the termination of the Share Sale Agreement, such capital raising to be undertaken by the Company within three months of termination of the Share Sale Agreement.

-
(b) the Company, if the Board determines that a Competing Proposal is a Superior Proposal that is not matched by Miracle Iron provided that the Company has complied with its exclusivity obligations under the Share Sale Agreement;
-
(c) the Company, if the majority of the Board publicly changes, withdraws or modifies their recommendation that Shareholders vote in favour of the Proposed Transaction due to a Competing Proposal having emerged and the Company entering into a legally binding agreement to undertake or give effect to the Competing Proposal after having complied with the exclusivity provisions of the Share Sale Agreement;
17
-
(d) Miracle Iron, where any Director fails to recommend the Proposed Transaction, withdraws, adversely revises or adversely modifies their recommendation of the Proposed Transaction, or makes a public statement indicating that they no longer recommend the Proposed Transaction or recommend, endorse or support a Competing Proposal;
-
(e) Miracle Iron, if there is a material breach by the Company of the prohibited actions under the Share Sale Agreement or there is a material breach of any of the warranties provided by the Company, which is not remedied within 10 Business Days of receipt by the Company of notice from Miracle Iron setting out details of the breach and requesting the Company to remedy that breach;
-
(f) the Company, if Miracle Iron materially breaches its obligations to pay the Exclusivity Fee or the Budget Expenditure Amounts of the agreed budget, or there is a material breach of the warranties provided by Miracle Iron which is not remedied within 10 Business Days of receipt by Miracle Iron of notice from the Company setting out the details of the breach and requesting Miracle Iron to remedy that breach; or
-
(g) Miracle Iron, if there is a project authorisation granted on terms and conditions, or a material part of the Robe Mesa Project is subject to an environmental assessment, where the impact of these matters results in the net present value of the Roba Mesa definitive feasibility study announced on 10 October 2023 being reduced to less than $125,000,000.
-
11 ( Other ) The Share Sale Agreement contains other clauses customary for a transaction of this nature including, but not limited to, warranties, limitations of claims and indemnities.
