  • Demand fundamentals for Lithium remain strong, underpinned by global decarbonisation efforts

  • Securing a reliable supply of Lithium is growing in importance for all downstream users

  • Countries and companies are scrambling to secure lithium supply

  • Significant offtake interest from a diverse range of global customers

Red Dirt’s primary goal is “Speed to Market”

Mt Ida Lithium Project

  • Mt Ida represents a new lithium province with considerable scope for exploration growth

  • Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate of 12.7Mt @ 1.2% Li2O completed within 12 months

  • Located on existing granted Mining Leases, Heritage surveys completed - no additional surveys required, environmental studies completed

  • Drilling and other works ongoing to support Scoping Study and Pre-feasibilities to begin shortly

Red Dirt Metals is focused on delivering an accelerated path to market, timing is critical to maximise value

Sister Sam Pegmatite

  • The Sister Sam (SS) Pegmatite underpins the MRE, with 5.7Mt @ 1.3% Li2O

  • Large thick tabular LCT pegmatite with high spodumene content and excellent Li2O grades, high grade core

  • Pegmatites outcrop with high Li grades commencing 55m below weathered cap

  • No internal waste, potential to be very selective during future mining operations

  • Exploration efforts are focused on discovering repeats of the SS pegmatite

  • Initial metallurgical studies indicate amenability to DMS and flotation

MRE within 12 months from first drillhole

==> picture [113 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

  • Maiden resource achieved that provides critical mass to progress development planning

  • Sister Sam forms the bulk of the resource, with contributions from Timoni and Sparrow

  • Upcoming drilling to concentrate on converting Inferred resources to Indicated in Q4 2022

  • Heritage approval in place, saving considerable time in development pathway

Block Models with Ind (Red) + Inf (Blue)

  • Results from recent regional Aircore drill programme pending

POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL GROWTH THROUGH REGIONAL EXPLORATION

  • Sister Sam, Timoni & Sparrow deposits remain open at depth

  • Inferred resources are expected to be upgraded into Indicated categorisation to underpin PFS

  • Potential increase in size with additional drilling currently underway

  • Planned extensional drilling aiming to find repeats of LCT pegmatite mineralisation

  • The Project includes six tenements covering an area of 520km[2]

  • Large high tenor lithium geochemical anomaly delineated, open in all directions around current prospects

  • Initial drill programme underway

  • 7km of outcropping pegmatites mapped containing Spodumene

  • Thick intervals of up to 35m have been previously intersected

  • Heritage clearance already approved

  • 44 LCT pegmatites mapped

  • 34 historical holes drilled to 80m vertical depth

  • Drilling commenced mid November to confirm LCT mineralisation

  • 15 diamond holes completed by end of December

  • Substantial campaign in 2023 planned

  • Drilling will test width, depth and grade of mineralisation

==> picture [105 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

Next Steps

Mt Ida Lithium Project

  • Investigation of Direct Shipping Ore (DSO) pathway

  • Scoping Study to delineate development options underway

  • Aiming for fast-track production to take advantage of buoyant Lithium prices

Yinnetharra Lithium Project

  • Initial Yinnetharra drilling commenced within 6 weeks of acquisition

  • Extensive regional and local prospects require aggressive first pass drill programme throughout 2023

Unlocking Resources for a Greener Future

SPEED TO MARKET FOCUS

  • Global demand for lithium remains strong, supply options remain limited; therefore, market shortages are likely to persist

  • The Mt Ida discovery represents a new lithium province – 12.7Mt @ 1.2% Li2O drilled within 12 months of project acquisition

  • We are in a race to develop, produce and deliver to market – granted Mining Lease and Heritage approval gives a significant head start

  • Yinnetharra offers additional exploration upside and future growth

  • Strong balance sheet with $18.7m cash (30 September 22)

  • The Red Dirt team has a proven history of bringing mines online
