Dreadnought Resources Limited (“ Dreadnought ”) is pleased to announce that assays have continued to confirm thick, high-grade REE mineralisation at Yin, within its 100% owned Mangaroon Project in the Gascoyne Region of Western Australia.

Assay results from 91 holes of 120 RC holes drilled along the first ~3kms of Yin have now been reported. The RC rig has moved on to the C1-C5 carbonatites where first-pass, pattern drilling is ongoing. The diamond rig continues to drill twin holes at Yin in preparation for an initial JORC Resource due in the December 2022 quarter.

Dreadnought’s Managing Director, Dean Tuck, commented: “Yin continues to deliver exceptional REE results. With 91 of 120 holes reported, we remain on schedule to deliver our initial JORC resource at Yin in the December 2022 quarter. Importantly this initial JORC Resource will only cover ~3km of the interpreted ~16km of strike of Yin. RC Drilling of C1-C5 carbonatites and diamond drilling at Yin is progressing well with updates expected shortly.”

SNAPSHOT - MANGAROON RARE EARTHS

100% Controlled by Dreadnought

  • Mangaroon REE are 100% owned and controlled by Dreadnought.

  • Readily accessible and located 5-20kms from the Cobra-Gifford Creek Road.

Genuine Scale Potential Already at Yin Ironstone Complex

  • Yin discovery contains 3km of confirmed mineralised strike and remains open along 16kms of strike – JORC Resource in December 2022 quarter, extensional drilling over 13km of strike planned.

  • Sabre and Y8 discoveries contain a combined ~3km of confirmed mineralised strike and both remain open along strike – JORC Resource in June 2023 quarter, extensional and infill drilling planned.

  • Long term incentives fully triggered at JORC Resource of at least 30Mt @ >1% TREO, 31 December 2024.

- Significant, Step Change, Growth Potential Beyond Yin Ironstone Complex

  • Seven carbonatite targets (C1-C7) may be the regional source of REE – drilling underway.

  • Confirmed mineralisation at 22 outcropping targets with another 10 prospective targets requiring further work – drilling planned.

  • 100 additional targets prospective for REE identified – under assessment.

High-Grade TREO Potential

  • Numerous thick, high-grade assays already at Yin - 91 out of 120 RC holes reported to date.

- High grade Neodymium and Praseodymium Concentrate Potential

  • Yin, like the Yangibana REE project controlled by the ~$450M Hastings Technology Metals Ltd (ASX.HAS), (“ Hastings ”) is a globally unique REE deposit due to the high proportion of neodymium and praseodymium in the total rare earth oxide (NdPr ratio). NdPr values up to ~46%, nearly double the global average, have been intersected at Yin.

Positive Metallurgy Results

  • Initial metallurgical test work from Yin performed well, achieving a recovery of 92.8% at a concentrate grade of 12.3% Nd2O3 and an average 40% TREO.

  • Yin is predominantly hosted in monazite which is amenable to commercial processing.

Analogous to a Globally Unique, Commercially Viable Development 25kms Away

  • Yangibana is Dreadnought’s immediate neighbour located only 25km to the northeast of Yin and currently has a JORC Resource* of 29.93Mt @ 0.93% TREO with 0.32% Nd2O3+Pr6O11 (34% NdPr:TREO).

  • Yangibana is under construction and development with first production planned for 2024.

Global Strategic Imperative Driving Rare Earth Growth & Prices

  • Supply chain security and low carbon transition are imperatives against a backdrop of heightened geopolitical tension pushing supply away from China.

RC Assay Results (YINRC001-YINRC091)

The first RC program at Yin has comprised 120 RC holes for ~12,255m (red and blue dots on Figure 2) of which assay results for 91 holes have been received (red dots on Figure 2).

The program commenced on Section 7350200mN in June 2022 and successfully intersected broad, high-grade REE ironstones.

==> picture [480 x 394] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 3: Cross section 7350200mN shows a shallowly dipping 20-40m wide western and a 10m-wide steeply dipping eastern ferrocarbonatite that is weathered to an oxide ironstone in the top 80 vertical metres.

Subsequent lines were drilled to the north and south covering ~3km at ~100-200m spacings and have been infilled to 50-100m spacings in preparation for an initial JORC Resource in the December 2022 quarter. Figures 3-11 show representative cross sections which indicate some pinching and swelling along with a strong consistency of mineralisation over the 3km of outcropping ironstones.

Subsequent analysis of the Yin trend indicates over ~16kms of strike potential of which only ~3kms has been drilled to date.

Technical Discussion on the RC Drill Program (YINRC001-YINRC120)

Yin is interpreted to be a >16km long REE bearing ironstone swarm that both outcrops and extends under shallow cover. Yin shows evidence for parallel or stacked ironstone horizons (see Figures 3, 5, 6, 9, 10 and 11). Rock chips collected in 2021 showed consistent mineralisation over ~2.5km of outcropping ironstone with values up to 13.0% TREO and a general trend of the NdPr:TREO ratio increasing to the north.

==> picture [452 x 175] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 12: Chip tray from YINRC001 showing mineralised oxidized ironstone from 1-34m and grading into dark fenitic alteration.

Drilling to date has confirmed the presence of the main REE bearing lode horizon along ~3km of strike often with multiple parallel lodes intersected. The main lode horizon pinches, swells and changes dip and orientation along strike and ranges in thickness from 1-54m. The parallel lodes have been intersected above and below the main lode and often exhibit a similar orientation as the main lode with thicknesses ranging from 1-10m.

The REE bearing ironstones consist of goethite and hematite dominated oxide zones near the surface (top ~80m) transitioning into a fresh ferrocarbonatite dyke (fresh REE ironstone), comprised of ankerite and siderite below the base of oxidation. The ironstones are surrounded by a variable zone of fenitised country rock. Both the ironstone and the fenite immediately surrounding the ironstone are mineralised with each ironstone and ferrocarbonatite containing at least one central interval of higher-grade mineralisation.

Yangibana REE ironstones (E09/2448, E09/2450, E09/2535: DRE 100%)

The Yangibana ironstones are readily accessible and located 5-20kms from the Cobra-Gifford Creek Road. The ironstones were first explored in 1972 for base metals. The REE potential of the ironstones was first assessed in 1985 and has seen substantial work by Hastings since 2011. The ~$450M Hastings controls the Yangibana REE Project and is Dreadnought’s immediate neighbour being to the north of the Lyons River Fault.

Yangibana currently has a JORC 2012 Mineral Resource* of 29.93Mt @ 0.93% TREO with 0.32% Nd2O3+Pr6O11 (34% NdPr:TREO) and is under construction and development. The high NdPr ratio (used for electric vehicle magnets and renewable power generation) is an important component of Yangibana’s economics.

Prior to Dreadnought, no significant REE exploration was undertaken south of the Lyons River Fault being the point at which the Yangibana REE ironstones were considered to terminate.

The outcropping Yangibana REE ironstones have a distinctive radiometric anomaly and appear as gossanous iron rich outcrops visible in ortho-imagery. From June to September 2021, Dreadnought announced the identification of the Yin, Y2 and Sabre (Y3) REE ironstones using wide spaced 1990s government radiometric data and modern ortho-imagery. Subsequently, Dreadnought undertook a ~43,000-line kilometre magneticradiometric survey resulting in the identification of seven - carbonatite targets to date (C1 C7).

Dreadnought has recently completed a project wide targeting exercise of the substantial and detailed magnetic-radiometric survey which has resulted in the identification of 140 anomalies prospective for REE mineralisation. To date, only 40 of these anomalies have been mapped and sampled resulting in the confirmation of outcropping REE mineralisation at 22 targets with an additional 10 targets determined to be prospective but requiring further work and 8 targets considered un-prospective. Most of these targets make up and are located around Yin, Y2, Sabre (Y3) and C1-C5. There remain 100 targets to be mapped and sampled and all are located within the 40km radius of the Yin Ironstone Complex.

Mapping and sampling of the remaining 100 targets is ongoing with further results throughout 2022.

INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS

Kimberley Ni-Cu-Au Projects

Dreadnought controls the second largest land holding in the highly prospective West Kimberley region of WA. The main project area, TarrajiYampi, is located only 85kms from Derby and has been locked up as a Defence Reserve since 1978.

Tarraji-Yampi presents a rare first mover opportunity with known outcropping mineralisation and historic workings from the early 1900’s which have seen no modern exploration.

Results to date indicate that there may be a related, large scale, Proterozoic Cu-Au-Ag-Bi-Sb-Co system at TarrajiYampi, similar to Cloncurry / Mt Isa in Queensland and Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory.

==> picture [271 x 361] intentionally omitted <==

Mangaroon Ni-Cu-PGE JV & REE Au 100% Project

Mangaroon is a first mover opportunity covering ~4,900sq kms located 250kms south-east of Exmouth in the vastly underexplored Gascoyne Region of WA. Part of the project is targeting Ni-Cu-PGE and is subject to a joint venture with First Quantum Minerals (earning up to 70%). The joint venture area contains outcropping high tenor Ni-Cu-PGE blebby sulphides in the recently defined Money Intrusion. Dreadnought’s 100% owned areas contain outcropping high-grade gold bearing quartz veins along the Edmund and Minga Bar Faults and outcropping high-grade REE ironstones, similar to those under development at the Yangibana REE Project. Recently six potentially REE bearing carbonatite intrusions have been identified which may also be the source of the regional rare earths.

Central Yilgarn Gold, Base Metals, Critical Minerals & Iron Ore Project

Central Yilgarn is located ~190km northwest of Kalgoorlie in the Yilgarn Craton. The project comprises ~1,600 sq kms covering ~150km of strike along the majority of the Illaara, Yerilgee and Evanston greenstone belts. Central Yilgarn is prospective for typical Archean mesothermal lode gold deposits, VMS base metals, komatiite hosted nickel sulphides and critical metals including Lithium-CaesiumTantalum.

Prior to consolidation by Dreadnought, the Central Yilgarn was predominantly held by iron ore explorers and remains highly prospective for iron ore.

The pXRF instrument is calibrated and serviced annually or more frequently as required with daily instrument calibration checks completed.

This procedure is in line with normal industry practice and deemed fit for purpose for preliminary analysis in first pass exploration drilling.

  • In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems.

information. Two sampling techniques were utilised for this
program, 1m metre splits directly from the rig
sampling system for each metre and 3m composite
sampling from spoil piles. Samples submitted to the
laboratory were determined by the site geologist.
1m Splits
From every metre drilled a 2-3kg sample (split) was
sub-sampled into a calico bag via a Metzke cone
splitter from each metre of drilling.
3m Composites
All remaining spoil from the sampling system was
collected in buckets from the sampling system and
neatly deposited in rows adjacent to the rig. An
aluminium scoop was used to then sub-sample
each spoil pile to create a 2-3kg 3m composite
sample in a calico bag.
A pXRF is used on site to determine mineralised
samples. Mineralised intervals have the 1m split
collected, while unmineralised samples have 3m
composites collected.
All samples are submitted to ALS Laboratories in
Perth for determination of Rare Earth Oxides by
Lithium Borate Fusion XRF (ALS Method ME-
XRF30).
All mineralised samples are also submitted for 48
multi-elements via 4 acid digestion with MS/ICP
finish (ALS Code ME-MS61) to assist with
lithological interpretation.
Drilling
techniques

Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation,
open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger,
Bangka, sonic, etc.) and details (e.g. core
diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of
diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other
type, whether core is oriented and if so, by
what method, etc.).
RC Drilling
Ausdrill undertook the program utilising a Drill Rigs
Australia truck mounted Schramm T685WS drill rig
with additional air from an auxiliary compressor and
booster. Bit size was 5¾”.
Drill sample

Measures
taken
to
maximise
sample
recovery and ensure representative nature
of the samples.

Whether a relationship exists between
sample recovery and grade and whether
sample bias may have occurred due to
preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.
RC Drilling
Drilling was undertaken using a ‘best practice’
approach to achieve maximum sample recovery
and quality through the mineralised zones.
Best practice sampling procedure included: suitable
usage of dust suppression, suitable shroud, lifting
off bottom between each metre, cleaning of
sampling equipment, ensuring a dry sample and
suitable supervision by the supervising geologist to
ensure good sample quality.
At this stage, no known bias occurs between
sample recovery and grade.
Logging
Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a
level of detail to support appropriate Mineral
Resource estimation, mining studies and
metallurgical studies.

Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative
RC chips were logged by a qualified geologist with
sufficient experience in this geological terrane and
relevant styles of mineralisation using an industry
standard logging system which could eventually be
utilised within a Mineral Resource Estimation.

grain size of the material being sampled.
Preliminary pXRF analysis
pXRF
analysis
of
pulverised
and
partially
homogenised reject RC sample piles is fit for
purpose as a preliminary exploration technique.
pXRF is a spot reading on raw (unprocessed) RC
sample piles with variable grain sizes and states of
homogenisation. High grade results were repeated
at multiple locations to confirm repeatability. The
competent person considers this acceptable within
the context of reporting preliminary exploration
results.
RC Drilling
From every metre drilled, a 2-3kg sample (split) was
sub-sampled into a calico bag via a Metzke cone
splitter.
QAQC in the form of duplicates and CRM’s
(OREAS Standards) were inserted through the ore
zones at a rate of 1:50 samples. Additionally, within
mineralised zones, a duplicate sample was taken
and a blank inserted directly after.
2-3kg samples are submitted to ALS laboratories
(Perth), oven dried to 105°C and pulverised to 85%
passing 75um to produce a 0.66g charge for
determination of Rare Earth Oxides by Lithium
Borate Fusion XRF (ALS Method ME-XRF30) and
to produce a 0.25g charge for determination of 48
multi-elements via 4 acid digestion with MS/ICP

mineralisation. A 3-beam, 35 second reading time
was used with a single reading on unprepared raw
RC chip sample piles. High grade samples were
repeated to confirm repeatability of grade.

reporting
Exploration
Results,

techniques,
maximum
and/or
minimum
grade
truncations (e.g. cutting of high grades)
and cut-off grades are usually Material
and should be stated.

Where aggregate intercepts incorporate
short lengths of high-grade results and
longer lengths of low-grade results, the
procedure used for such aggregation
should be stated and some typical
examples of such aggregations should
be shown in detail.

The assumptions used for any reporting
of metal equivalent values should be
clearly stated.
All results with a preliminary pXRF value over
0.2% TREO have been reported.
Significant intercepts are length weight averaged
for all samples with a preliminary pXRF value
>0.2% TREO with up to 3m of internal dilution
(<0.2% TREO).
No metal equivalents are reported.
Relationship
between
mineralisation widths
and intercept lengths

These
relationships
are
particularly
important in the reporting of Exploration
Results.

If the geometry of the mineralisation with
respect to the drill hole angle is known, its
nature should be reported.

If it is not known and only the down hole
lengths are reported, there should be a
clear statement to this effect (e.g. ‘down
hole length, true width not known’).
Drilling is undertaken close to perpendicular to
the dip and strike of the mineralisation.
