WOODLAWN RESTART KEY UPDATE RESULTS

  • Pre-tax NPV increases by 11% to A$728m

  • Pre-tax free cashflow increases to A$1.1b

  • Updated NPV is based on consensus prices forecasts used in April-24 to enable like-for-like comparisons of the two NPV results

  • Both copper and zinc spot prices are +10% higher than when the April NPV was released

  • The pre-production capital and max cash down increase by $A11m to A$78m due to increases in processing and optimising mining sequence

• With this debt, existing cash of A$30.5m and a profitable mining services division which will grow cash in FY25, Woodlawn is now fullyfunded through to production and cashflow in Mid-2025 (subject to final investment decision)

A QUALITY PROJECT FOR THE ENERGY REVOLUTION

SITE UPDATE

  • Processing upgrade work well underway

  • Excellent progress with internal package and

  • Total GRES package now 36% complete

  • Options under review for acceleration of

  • Underground Development is underway and

  • Employment of operational staff progressing

A QUALITY PROJECT FOR THE ENERGY REVOLUTION

SULPHUR SPRINGS ZINC-COPPER PROJECT

==> picture [39 x 38] intentionally omitted <==

  • The project is a high-grade Zinc and Copper Resource of 17.4Mt @ 5.8% Zn, 1.0% Cu & 21gpt Ag located in the Tier 1 mining district of WA

  • This was the sole asset Venturex recapitalised on (market cap A$40M) in Jun-21 it resulted in the initial A$38M funding package from new shareholders

  • Develop has spent A$15M over the past two years on our operational goals

  • All major project approvals are granted (Ministerial environmental approval, Mining Proposal and Mine Closure plan)

  • This resulted in a substantial increase in Resources and Reserves

  • Changed the mine plan to underground mining only, simplifying the execution

  • Jun-23 Definitive Feasibility Study delivered a post-tax NPV of A$523M. Mine life of 8 years and upfront capital requirement of A$296M.

  • Once the mine is built it generates ~A$147Mpa of pre-tax cashflow; commodity prices are substantially higher since this DFS was released

  • Only 135kt of zinc is subject to an offtake agreement, no offtake for copper. This makes the project highly desirable for offtake partners

  • Further opportunities to add value through exploration and increasing plant capacity. Kangaroo Caves and Sulphur Springs open pit were not in the DFS
