~~Proterozoic Mobile Belt~~ s

  • Proterozoic mobile belts are attractive with the potential to host world class deposits across a range of commodities

  • Mangaroon compliments the Kimberley

  • Both have potential Tier 1 discoveries

  • Both have been historically underexplored despite outcropping mineralisation

  • Dreadnought has acquired a substantial first mover land package in both provinces

  • Recently announced Option/JV Agreement regarding base metal rights with First Quantum Minerals

  • Dreadnought to manage early-stage exploration and retains certain rights to gold discoveries

  • First Quantum Minerals to fully fund exploration through decision to mine
