YIN DRILLING COMPLETE, SIGNIFICANT GROWTH POTENTIAL – MANGAROON 100% DRE
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Initial JORC Mineral Resource (“Resource”) RC drilling (120 holes, 12,255m) at the Yin Rare Earth Element (“REE”) prospect has been completed over an initial 3kms of strike with mineralisation remaining open in all directions and at depth.
-
Magnetic data indicates that the main Yin trend extends >16kms in strike, with significant growth potential beyond the initial 3km of Resource drilling. Initial JORC Mineral Resource over the first 3kms of Yin expected in the December 2022 quarter.
-
Additional targets identified (Figure 1): ironstones north of Yin (Y7); possible connection between Y3 and Yin (Y8); and Y42 located 10 kms east of Y3. Seventh carbonatite target (C7) identified 5kms southeast of C5. Assay results of rock chips over these new targets expected in September 2022.
-
A recently completed detailed magnetic-radiometric survey has resulted in the identification of 140 anomalies prospective for REE mineralisation. REE mineralisation has been confirmed at 22 of the targets and ~100 out of the 140 targets remain to be inspected.
-
RC rig currently mobilising to Y3 (rock chips up to 39.7% TREO (6.30% Nd2O3+Pr6O11)) with first pass drilling of five carbonatite targets (C1-C5) to commence in September 2022. Importantly, the carbonatites could be the source REE intrusions for the region.
Dreadnought Resources Limited (“ Dreadnought ”) is pleased to announce that infill RC drilling has continued to intersect thick, mineralised, REE ironstones at Yin, within its 100% owned Mangaroon Project in the Gascoyne Region of Western Australia.
Dreadnought’s Managing Director, Dean Tuck, commented: “With over 12,000m of drilling now complete at Yin, our understanding of the petrophysical properties has significantly improved. This understanding has led to the identification
==> picture [421 x 330] intentionally omitted <==
of the Yin trend extending for ~16kms in strike, on which to date we have only drill tested ~3kms. We have also identified three new ironstone trends, including a possible link between Yin and Y3 and a new carbonatite target at C7. We look forward to receiving assay results from our new targets and to inspecting the remaining 100 targets in our database.”

100% Controlled by Dreadnought
- Mangaroon REE are 100% owned and controlled by Dreadnought.
Genuine scale potential already at >16km Yin with initial Resource expected in the December 2022 quarter
- Yin already contains 3km of mineralised strike and remains open along strike and at depth.
- Significant, Step Change, Growth Potential Beyond Yin
-
Mineralised Y2 and Y3 REE ironstones confirmed - drilling in August 2022.
-
Seven carbonatite targets (C1-C7) may be the regional source of REE – drilling in September 2022.
-
Confirmed mineralisation at 22 outcropping targets with another 3 prospective, undercover targets – drilling planned.
-
100 additional anomalies prospective for REE identified – currently under assessment.
- High Grade TREO potential
-
Previously reported assays from first line of drilling at Yin containing high-grade REE include:
-
YINRC005: 15m @ 4.08% TREO from 105m
-
YINRC001: 10m @ 6.05% TREO from 11m
-
YINRC002: 7m @ 3.47% TREO from 29m

YINRC003: 11m @ 3.11% TREO from 58m
-
Rock Chips up to 39.7% TREO (6.30% Nd2O3+Pr6O11) from Y3.
- High grade Neodymium and Praseodymium Potential
- Yin, like the Yangibana REE project controlled by the ~$450M Hastings Technology Metals Ltd (ASX.HAS), (“ Hastings ”) appears to be a globally unique REE deposit due to the high proportion of neodymium and praseodymium in the total rare earth oxide (NdPr ratio).
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.
-
Minerals hosting the REE at Yin are predominantly monazite which are 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.
-
Yangibana currently has a JORC Resource* of 27.42Mt @ 0.97% TREO with 0.33% Nd2O3+Pr6O11.
-
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.

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 2 and 4). 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 neodymium and praseodymium to TREO ratio (“Nd2O3+Pr6O11:TREO”) increasing to the north.

Figure 3: 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 down hole. The main lode horizon pinches, swells and changes dip and orientation along strike and ranges in thickness from 1-45m. The parallel lodes have been intersected above and below the main lode and often exhibit a similar orientation as the main lode with thickness 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 a 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 Ironstone 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 27.42Mt @ 0.97% TREO with 0.33% Nd2O3+Pr6O11 and is under construction and development. The high proportion of Nd2O3+Pr6O11 (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 Y3 REE ironstones using wide spaced 1990s government radiometric data and modern ortho-imagery. From September to November 2021, Dreadnought undertook a ~43,000-line kilometre magnetic-radiometric 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, Y3 and C1-C5. There remain 100 targets to be mapped and sampled and are all located within a 40km radius of Yin, Y2, Y3 and C1-C5.
Mapping and sampling of the remaining 100 targets is ongoing with further results expected from August through October 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 ~4,500sq 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.
Illaara Gold, Base Metals, Critical Minerals & Iron Ore Project
Illaara is located 190km northwest of Kalgoorlie in the Yilgarn Craton and covers 75kms of strike along the Illaara Greenstone Belt. Illaara is prospective for typical Archean mesothermal lode gold deposits, VMS base metals and critical metals including Lithium-Caesium-Tantalum.
Dreadnought has consolidated the Illaara Greenstone Belt mainly through an acquisition from Newmont. Prior to Newmont, the Illaara Greenstone Belt was predominantly held by iron ore explorers and remains highly prospective for iron ore.

| Sampling techniques |
• Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. • Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. • Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. • 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. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed |
Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling was undertaken to produce samples for assaying. Preliminary pXRF analysis Preliminary assays were obtained using an Olympus Vanta M Series pXRF analyser. The pXRF was placed on the reject sample piles from the rigs Metzke cone splitter. One 3 beam, 30 second measurement was completed for each drill metre sample. The pXRF instrument is calibrated and serviced annually or more frequently as required with daily instrument calibration checks completed. Additionally, silica blanks and OREAS standards, appropriate to the style of mineralisation are routinely analysed to confirm performance. This procedure is in line with normal industry practice and deemed fit for purpose for preliminary analysis in first pass exploration drilling. This report relates to exploration results of a preliminary nature. pXRF analysis is a preliminary technique which will be superseded by laboratory analysis when it becomes available.

| 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 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 recovery |
• Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. • 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.

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 finish (ALS Code ME-MS61). Standard laboratory QAQC is undertaken and monitored. |
| Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
• The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total. • For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc., the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc. • Nature of quality control procedures adopted (e.g. standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (i.e. lack of bias) and precision have been established. |
Preliminary pXRF analysis Olympus Vanta M Series pXRF analyser is used to provide preliminary quantitative measurement of mineralisation. A 3-beam, 30 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. Calibration checks of the pXRF are undertaken daily, a silica blank and certified REE standard OREAS 461 is routinely analysed to monitor pXRF performance.

| Verification of sampling and assaying |
• The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel. • The use of twinned holes. • Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols. • Discuss any adjustment to assay data. |
Preliminary pXRF analysis Analytical data was collected directly by the Olympus Vanta M Series pXRF analyser and downloaded by digital transfer to an excel spreadsheet with inbuilt QAQC. All data was checked by the responsible geologist and filed on the company server. Logging and Sampling Logging and sampling were recorded directly into a digital logging system, verified and eventually stored in an offsite database. Significant intersections are inspected by senior company personnel. No twinned holes have been drilled at this time. No adjustments to any assay data have been undertaken. |
| Location of data points |
• Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation. • Specification of the grid system used. • Quality and adequacy of topographic control. |
Collar position was recorded using a Emlid Reach RS2 RTK GPS system (+/- 0.2m x/y, +/-0.5m z). GDA94 Z50s is the grid format for all xyz data reported. Azimuth and dip of the drill hole was recorded after the completion of the hole using a Reflex Sprint IQ Gyro. A reading was undertaken every 30thmetre with an accuracy of +/- 1° azimuth and +/-0.3° dip. |
| Data spacing and distribution |
• Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. • Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied. • Whether sample compositing has been applied. |
See drill table for hole positions. Data spacing at this stage is not suitable for Mineral Resource Estimation. |
| Orientation of data in relation to geological 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. |
Drilling was undertaken at a near perpendicular angle to the interpreted strike and dip of the ironstone outcrops and modelled magnetic data. No sample bias is known at this time. |

An overview of the drilling program is given within the text and tables within this document. |
|
| Data aggregation methods |
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging 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. The true thickness of the mineralisation intersected in drill holes cannot currently be calculated. |
