HIGHLIGHTS

  • Omahola comprises the Ongolo, MS7 and Inca deposits and provides Deep Yellow with another significant exploration target to unlock further value across its Namibian portfolio

  • 220-hole, 7,426m shallow exploration drilling program completed at the Omahola Project, a Reptile basement exploration target zone

  • 50ppm isopach representing 47% of holes drilled outlines a large, highly prospective zone for follow up

o three priority targets identified for immediate drilling

  • Omahola occurs within the highly prospective “Alaskite Alley” corridor, which includes the major uranium deposits of Rössing, Husab, Etango and Valencia

INTRODUCTION

Since late 2016, current management of Deep Yellow Limited (ASX: DYL) ( Deep Yellow ) have focused on the progression of a dual-pillar growth strategy involving organic growth of the Company’s Namibian project portfolio and inorganic growth through targeted merger and acquisitions, to establish a global, multi-platform 5-10Mlb per annum, low-cost, tier one uranium producer.

The Company has experienced excellent growth particularly through the organic pillar, exploring and developing the shallow targets occurring within the Tumas palaeochannel (located within EPLs 3496 and 3497). This has resulted in a near four-fold increase in the Mineral Resource, demonstrating similar characteristics to Langer Heinrich-style deposits (see Figure 1).

The Tumas Project remains the priority focus with the continued progression of the DFS, expected to be completed during the latter part of CY2022.

Between 2009 and 2013 previous management also identified significant uranium mineralisation in basement lithologies, associated with alaskite intrusions similar to Rössing/Husab style of mineralisation. Three discrete deposits were discovered, collectively called the Omahola Project ( Omahola ) and located on EPL 3496, held by Deep Yellow through its wholly owned subsidiary Reptile Uranium Namibia (Pty) Ltd.

OMAHOLA BASEMENT PROJECT (OMAHOLA)

Omahola occurs in the highly prospective “Alaskite Alley” corridor which includes major uranium deposits Rössing, Husab, Etango and Valencia as shown in Figure 1. These deposits contain more than 800Mlb U3O8, with the Rössing mine alone having produced in excess of 200Mlb U3O8.

Uranium mineralisation at Omahola occurs across three deposits including Ongolo, MS7 and Inca (Figures 1 & 2). It is associated with sheeted leucogranites, locally known as alaskites, and hydrothermal skarn formation.

Omahola provides Deep Yellow with another significant exploration target type to unlock further value, with potential for resource expansion considering the substantial accumulation of uranium and the underexplored nature of this extensive prospective Alaskite Alley.

Omahola occupies a structural zone with favourable lithological contacts extending 35km by 14km and trending northeast-southwest within the Alaskite Alley. Only a small section of this favourable zone has been adequately drilled in the past. A comprehensive review of existing

Page 2 of 23

data showed that both alaskite- and skarn-hosted uranium mineralisation, are primarily structurally controlled. Identifying the presence of structurally weak zones, e.g., lithological contacts of marble and gneiss as well as the proximity to a fold hinge will be a key criterion guiding delineation of new targets.

A study of historical Omahola drill results carried out over the existing deposits of Ongolo, MS7, and Inca, clearly showed that the deposits are generally detectable at an average drilling depth of 25m using the 100ppm U3O8 bottom hole result. In addition, previous extensive studies of the discoveries of large nearby uranium deposits showed, from the early reconnaissance drilling the explorers applied, that the 50ppm U3O8 marker was also a strong indicator of significant underlying mineralisation.

Based on both these studies it was decided that the most effective way to isolate potential within the large prospective Omahola corridor was to carry out a shallow 25m-35m deep drilling program and use the 50ppm and 100ppm geochemical isopachs to isolate the high priority follow-up areas for further drilling investigation.

This recent re-interpretation of available geological data has highlighted significant potential for both expansion of existing deposits and discovery of new deposits in the remaining untested area.

In anticipation of moving exploration focus toward Omahola, on 4 November 2021 Deep Yellow announced a review of the Omahola resource status with the mineral resources upgraded from JORC 2004 to JORC 2012 category. This work reported a combined Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resource base of 125.3Mlb at 190ppm U3O8 at a 100ppm U3O8 cut-off grade (Appendix 1).

SHALLOW RC DRILLING PROGRAM

On 5 October 2021 Deep Yellow announced the commencement of exploration activities at Omahola through a shallow reverse circulation (RC) drilling program, targeting extensions of the known deposits testing for new uranium mineralisation along an extensive prospective zone.

The program aimed at testing the lithological-structural target zone occurring between the three known Omahola deposits, which are largely under cover and extend over a 10km strike length.

The shallow drilling program was completed on 14 December 2021 involving 220 shallow holes for 7,426m. A drill spacing 400m by 100m hole was applied, with holes drilled 25m into basement lithologies to identify uranium mineralisation.

104 holes, or 47% of the holes drilled, returned greater than 50ppm eU3O8 over 1m or more, an exceptional result signifying the highly uraniferous nature of the prospective zone targeted. 34 of these holes (15%) intersected uranium mineralisation greater than 100ppm eU3O8 over 1m (Appendix 2, Table 1). Of these, 26 holes are in basement lithologies with the remaining eight holes intersecting mineralisation within the overlying alluvial cover sediments.

Figure 2 shows the current and historic drill hole locations outlining the key 50ppm and 100ppm eU3O8 over 1m contours, resulting from the shallow exploration drilling and clearly shows the extensive high priority zones identified for follow-up work.

The anomalous holes occur in three distinct clusters, each representing a priority target for follow-up drilling in 2022.

The most highly anomalous cluster identified is a significant east-west trending anomalous zone identified in six consecutive drill lines approximately 4km west of the MS7 deposit with 17 holes reported greater than 50 ppm eU3O8 over 1m generating a 2km by 1km target of high exploration interest. Within this 50ppm isopach, ten holes intersected mineralisation greater than 100ppm eU3O8 over 1m and these will be the initial focus of follow-up drilling.

Two of the clusters are located south of the Inca deposit and both are associated with structural features including folds and faults. The cluster closest to the Inca deposit is located 1km to the south, giving an approximate 2km south westerly extension to the previously identified Inca South prospect. This confirms the significance of previous positive drill results in this area, including a historic intersection of 65m at 550ppm U3O8 (refer ASX announcement 4 November 2021). Magnetic data indicate that the cluster is associated with a northeast-southwest trending sheared fold.

The cluster further to the south extends over 1km as observed in three consecutive drill lines in Figure 2 and is associated with a hinge zone interpreted from airborne magnetic data.

The mineralised eU3O8 intersections greater than 50ppm eU3O8 are shown in Table 1 of Appendix 2. Locations of RC drill holes of the current program are listed in Table 2, Appendix 2. All equivalent uranium values are based on down-hole radiometric gamma logging carried out by a fully calibrated AusLog gamma logging system.

CONCLUSIONS

The shallow drilling program has been very successful both in confirming the highly prospective nature of the broader Omahola target zone and in delineating three substantial target zones outlined by the 50ppm contour line further supported by some intersections greater than 100ppm eU3O8.

This work indicates strong potential exists for the possibility of discovering new deposits within the Omahola Project area. Follow-up drilling planned in early 2022 will target these priority zones following review of geophysical and geological data to help define optimal drilling locations.

Auslog probes were again re-calibrated at the calibration pit located at Langer

September 2019.
During the drilling, the probes were checked daily against a standard source.
Gamma measurements were taken at 5cm intervals at a logging speed of
approximately 2m per minute.
Probing was done immediately after drilling mainly through the drill rods and in
some cases in the open holes. Rod factors have been established once
sufficient in-rod and open-hole data were available to compensate for the
reduced gamma counts when logging was done through the drill rods. No
correction for water was done. The majority of drill holes were dry.
All gamma measurements were corrected for dead time which is unique to the
probe.

Criteria JORC Code explanation  Commentary
 All corrected (dead time and rod factor) gamma values were converted to
equivalent eU3O8 values over the same intervals using the probe-specific K-
factor.
Chemical assay data
 Geochemical samples were derived from Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling at
intervals of 1m. Samples were split at the drill site using a riffle splitter to obtain
a 0.5kg sample of which an approximately 25g subsample was obtained for
portable XRF-analysis at Reptile Mineral Resources and Exploration Pty Ltd

estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied.
Whether sample compositing has been applied.

The data spacing and distribution is optimized to test the selected exploration
targets.
The total gamma count data, which is recorded at 5cm intervals, was used to
calculate equivalent uranium values (eU3O8) which were composited to 1m

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.

The basement target mineralisation is vertical to steeply dipping and the
vertical drill holes are aimed at identifying shallow mineralisation for future
follow-up. The intersections do not represent the true width and have to be
evaluated for each hole depending on the structural and geological setting.
All holes were sampled downhole from surface. Geochemical samples are
being collected at 1m intervals. Total gamma count data is being collected at
5cm intervals.
Sample security The measures taken to ensure sample security.
1m RC drill chip samples were prepared at the drill site. The samples are stored
in plastic bags. Sample tags were placed inside the bags. The samples were
placed into plastic crates and transported from the drill site to RMR’s site
premises in Swakopmund by Company personnel for analysis by portable XRF.
Upon completion of the assay work the remainder of the drill chip sample bags
for each hole will be packed back into crates and then stored in designated
containers in chronological order, locked up and kept safe at RMR’s dedicated
sample storageyard at RockyPoint located outside Swakopmund.
Audits or reviews The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques In October 2021 Patrick Brunel (PhD SEG) conducted an audit of gamma
and data. logging procedures and log reduction methods in Namibia, as used by Deep
Yellow Limited.
He concluded that in his opinion that RMR’s gamma logging system and
procedures are professional and satisfactory and that the equivalent uranium
grades reported by RMR from their gamma logging program are reliable and
likelywithin a fewpercent to the truegrade.
