DRILLING RESULTS – ILLAARA Au-Cu-IRON ORE PROJECT

HIGHLIGHTS

• Encouraging results from first pass drilling along Lawrence’s Corridor with significant results including:

• LWRC030: 3m @ 3.6 g/t Au from 30m

• LWRC026: 1m @ 3.7 g/t Au from 5m

• LWRC005: 18m @ 0.2 g/t Au from 30m

• Interpretation of Lawrence’s Corridor incorporating new detailed magnetics data indicates that several north-south trending mineralised shears control the higher-grade intercepts and gold in soil anomalies.

• Furthering drilling within the Lawrence’s Corridor will target these structural intersections.

Dreadnought Resources Limited (“ Dreadnought ”) is pleased to announce the results from RC drilling at Lawrence’s Corridor, Metzke’s Find and Black Oak, all part of the Illaara Au-Cu-Iron Ore Project (“ Illaara ”).

At Lawrence’s Corridor, the first pass fence line drilling program was designed to identify mineralised structures under 14 gold in soil geochemical anomalies. In addition, 5 holes for 965m were drilled to test the continuation of Metzke’s Find at depth.

Drilling has confirmed at least 3 mineralised north-south trending shears running the length of the ~10km long Lawrence’s Corridor. Higher grade intercepts are controlled by proximity to cross cutting structures as identified in the recently flown detailed magnetics survey. Follow up drilling and further targeting within the Lawrence’s Corridor will focus on these structural intersections.

Drilling at Metzke’s Find intersected the mineralised structure at depth, however no significant intercepts were returned. Metzke’s Find is a shallow high-grade deposit potentially amenable to open cut mining. A Mineral Resource estimate for Metzke’s Find will be released in the September 2021 quarter.

At Black Oak, the first batch of 1m splits produced higher grade intercepts within the broad zones of oxide mineralisation further supporting the potential of the ~3km long Black Oak prospect to host significant mineralisation.

Lithium-Caesium-Tantalum (“ LCT ”) results from the Peggy Sue LCT pegmatite prospect remain outstanding and will be reported in June 2021.

Dreadnought Managing Director, Dean Tuck, commented: “ We are pleased with intersecting significant mineralisation at three areas in such an early stage within the Lawrence’s Corridor. The program has also successfully identified the structures controlling gold mineralisation. These results, combined with the recently flown detailed magnetics survey, will allow for detailed targeting of highgrade lodes within the Lawrence’s Corridor. In addition, Resource estimation work will be undertaken at Metzke’s Find. Pleasingly, results from 1m splits confirmed the potential of Black Oak.

We are now shifting our attention to the Kimberley with drilling to commence in June 2021.”

Drilling at Lawrence’s Corridor (E30/476: 100%, E30/485: Option to acquire 100%)

Lawrence’s Corridor was defined by the previous owner (Newmont) over a ~10km long camp scale anomaly situated over a major structural corridor at the southern end of the Illaara Greenstone Belt. Lawrence’s Corridor derives its name from Lawrence’s Find, a historical digging on a sugary quartz sulphide vein within sheared and biotite altered mafic amphibolites. Outside of these historical workings, the Lawrence’s Corridor has received no significant exploration, nor effective historical drilling.

==> picture [234 x 550] intentionally omitted <==

The recent program consisted of 45 RC holes for 3,864m to test 14 lithostructuralgeochemical anomalies within the Lawrence’s Corridor. First pass, fence line drilling is designed to identify the mineralised structure responsible for the gold in soil anomalism for follow up drilling.

Drilling within the Lawrence’s Corridor intersected fine grained foliated mafic amphibolites crosscut by numerous felsic intrusions. The amphibolite package has undergone pervasive silicification and potassic alteration. Several holes intersected quartzsulphide veins with associated pyrite-biotite alteration or intensely sheared, veined and altered porphyritic felsic intrusions.

Significant intercepts include:

• LWRC030: 3m @ 3.6 g/t Au from 30m

• LWRC026: 1m @ 3.7 g/t Au from 5m

• LWRC005: 18m @ 0.2 g/t Au from 30m

The program successfully confirmed 3 mineralised structures with significant intercepts controlled by cross cutting secondary structures as seen in new high resolution magnetics imagery. Follow up drilling will be targeted on these controlling structural intersections.

1m splits will be collected from all of the recent mineralised intercepts.

Drilling at Metzke’s Find (E29/1050: 100%)

Gold mineralisation at Metzke’s Find has now been confirmed over 400m strike length and to a depth of over 100m. Mineralisation is contained within a 5-10m wide shear zone defined by biotite and sulphide alteration with high grades hosted in sugary quartz-sulphide veins within the shear. Previous intercepts include:

• MZRC030: 2m @ 10.8 g/t Au from 102m • MZRC028: 1m @ 10.9 g/t Au from 89m

• • MZRC019: 2m @ 39.2 g/t Au from 45m • MZRC015: 1m @ 24.8 g/t Au from 51m

• MZRC021: 3m @ 13.8 g/t Au from 108m • MZRC016: 3m @ 21.0 g/t Au from 85m

• • MZRC022: 2m @ 20.7 g/t Au from 19m • MZRC017: 7m @ 7.5 g/t Au from 51m

Recent drilling at Metzke’s Find consisted of 5 RC holes for 965m to test the plunge at depth. Low tenor mineralisation was intersected within the targeted shear zone confirming the continuation of the mineralised structure. However no high-grade mineralisation was intersected at depth.

Metzke’s Find has proven to host shallow high-grade mineralisation potentially amenable to open pit mining. A Mineral Resource estimate for Metzke’s Find will be released in the September 2021 quarter.

Drilling at Black Oak (E29/957: 100%)

Black Oak is a large coherent and high tenor gold-in-soil anomaly over 3kms in strike and open to the south. The anomaly is situated to the east of Metzke’s Find in a package of sheared sediments and ultramafic volcanics. First-pass drilling in 2020 confirmed thick, shallow oxide gold mineralisation within a deep weathering profile. The recent drill program was designed to test the extensions of oxide mineralisation as well as the sheared ultramafic-sediment contact which could potentially host fresh bedrock mineralisation.

==> picture [225 x 560] intentionally omitted <==

Results of 1m splits from this recent program have been received for the holes which produced the higher grades from within the broad mineralised zones. Significant intercepts included:

• BORC009: 5m @ 0.8 g/t Au from 70m,

• including 1m @ 3.3 g/t Au from 73m

• BORC010: 18m @ 0.3 g/t Au from 138m,

• including 1m @ 1.8 g/t Au from 141m

Results of 1m splits from remaining holes are expected in June 2021.

A review of the detailed magnetics with the goldin-soil anomalies highlights multiple mineralised shears with anomalism peaking near bends and cross structures. Only one of these shears has been tested and then only over a limited strike extent.

Regolith mapping has also highlighted a strong control over gold-in-soil anomalism, with deeper weathering and cover to the west likely subduing gold-in-soil anomalism compared with the exposed saprolite targeted in recent drilling.

Work to date has highlighted a large mineralised system which has been inadequately tested by drilling. Future work programs at Black Oak will likely include wide spaced air core drilling to test for oxide mineralisation along the >3km strike length and to identify targets for RC drilling.

Background on Illaara

Illaara is located 190 kms from Kalgoorlie and comprises seven tenements (~900 sq kms) covering over ~75km of strike along the entire Illaara Greenstone Belt. The Illaara Greenstone Belt has now been consolidated through an acquisition from Newmont and subsequently the purchase of Metzke’s Find and an option to acquire 100% of E30/485 and E29/965.

Recent gold exploration within the Illaara Greenstone Belt was spurred on by a ~55km long Au-As-Sb anomaly generated from regional regolith sampling by the Geological Survey of Western Australia.

Prior to Newmont, the Illaara Greenstone Belt was held by Portman Iron and Cleveland Cliffs who were looking to extend their mining operations north as part of their Koolyanobbing Iron Ore Operation. Given the long history of iron ore mining in the region, Illaara is well situated in relation to existing road and rail infrastructure connecting it to a number of export ports.

Historically gold was discovered and worked at Metzke’s Find and Lawrence’s Find in the early 1900s. In addition to gold, outcropping VMS base metals mineralisation was identified and briefly tested in the 1980s with no subsequent exploration utilising modern techniques.

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, Tarraji-Yampi, 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 1900s which have seen no modern exploration.

Three styles of mineralisation occur at Tarraji-Yampi including: volcanogenic massive sulphide (“ VMS ”); Proterozoic Cu-Au (“ IOCG ”); and magmatic sulphide Ni-Cu-PGE. Numerous high priority nickel, copper and gold drill targets have been identified from recent VTEM surveys, historical drilling and surface sampling of outcropping mineralisation.

==> picture [261 x 358] intentionally omitted <==

Illaara Gold, VMS & 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 and base metals VMS mineralisation.

Dreadnought has consolidated the Illaara Greenstone Belt mainly through an acquisition from Newmont. Newmont defined several camp-scale targets which were undrilled due to a change in corporate focus. Prior to Newmont, the Illaara Greenstone Belt was predominantly held by iron ore explorers and has seen minimal gold and base metal exploration since the 1990s.

Rocky Dam Gold & VMS Project

Rocky Dam is located 45kms east of Kalgoorlie in the Eastern Goldfields Superterrane of Western Australia. Rocky Dam is prospective for typical Archean mesothermal lode gold deposits and Cu-Zn VMS mineralisation. Rocky Dam has known gold and VMS occurrences with drill ready gold targets including the recently defined CRA-North Gold Prospect.

Mangaroon Ni-Cu-PGE & Au Project

Mangaroon is a first mover opportunity covering ~4,000sq kms of tenure located 250kms southeast of Exmouth in the Gascoyne Region of Western Australia. Mangaroon is prospective for magmatic NiCu-PGE mineralisation and high grade gold with evidence of both outcropping within the project area and virtually unexplored for the past 40 years.

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 information.	samples were submitted along with a blank. 3m and 6m Composites (Outside Target Zone) Outside the target zone, all remaining spoil from the sampling system was collected in buckets 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 or 6m composite sample in a calico bag. QAQC samples, in addition to the target lode duplicates and blanks, consisting of duplicates and CRM’s (OREAS Standards) were inserted through the program at a rate of 1:50 samples. Samples were then submitted to the laboratory and pulverised to produce a 50g charge for Fire Assay at ALS Laboratories in Perth (Au-ICP22). Samples that were identified as pegmatites were submitted to the laboratory and pulverised to produce a 0.2g charge for sodium peroxide fusion with an ICP-AES and ICP-MS analysis at ALS Laboratories in Perth (MS91-PKG)
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 recover and quality through the ore 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 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 in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc.) photography. • The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged.	RC chips and diamond core 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. Lithology, mineralisation, alteration, veining, weathering and structure were all recorded digitally. Chips were washed each metre and stored in chip trays for preservation and future reference. Logging is qualitative, quantitative or semi- quantitative in nature.

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 each ore zone, a duplicate sample was taken of the lode and a blank inserted directly after. 2-3kg samples were then submitted to ALS laboratories (Perth), oven dried to 105°C and pulverised to 85% passing 75um to produce a 50g charge for Fire Assay with ICP-AES finish (Au- ICP22). Samples that were identified as pegmatites were submitted to the laboratory and pulverised to produce a 0.2g charge for sodium peroxide fusion with an ICP-AES and ICP-MS analysis at ALS Laboratories in Perth (MS91-PKG) 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.	Assay technique is Fire Assay which is a ‘Total Technique’. Sodium peroxide fusion is the standard technique for analysing lithium bearing pegmatites. Standard laboratory QAQC is undertaken and monitored by the laboratory and by the company upon assay result receival. All QAQC is deemed to have passed internal DRE standards.
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.	Logging and sampling were recorded directly into a digital logging system, verified and eventually stored in an offsite database. LMDD001 was drilled as a twin of LMRC005 approximately 1m north and did not confirm similar mineralisation. 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 Z51s 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 EZ Gyro. A reading was undertaken every 30-40thmetre 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.	See drill table for hole positions. Data spacing at this stage is not suitable for Mineral Resource Estimation.

	• Whether sample compositing has been applied.
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 sub-perpendicular angle to the interpreted strike and dip of any interpreted mineralised structures or lithologies. Lithologies generally are steeply dipping (~70-80°) and thus true widths of mineralisation will have to be extrapolated from any assay results.
Sample security	• The measures taken to ensure sample security.	All samples from collection at rig through to submission at the laboratory have been under the supervision of Dreadnought personnel or sub- contractors associated with the company. All samples are sealed in polyweave bags and stored in bulka bags for storage and transport.
Audits or reviews	• The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data.	The program is continuously reviewed by senior company personnel.

Geology	• Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.	• The Illaara Project is located within the Illaara Greenstone Belt within the Southern Cross Domain of the Youanmi Terrane approximately 60kms west of the Ida Fault. • The Illaara Project is prospective for orogenic gold, VMS and potentially komatiite hosted nickel mineralisation. • Mineralisation at Metzke’s is quartz vein hosted within sheared undifferentiated mafic rocks.
Drill hole information	• A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: o easting and northing of the drill hole collar o elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar o dip and azimuth of the hole o down hole length and interception depth o hole length. • If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.	• 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 have been reported above 0.1g/t Au. • No top cutting has been applied. • All reported results have been length weighted (arithmetic length weighting). • No metal equivalent values 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 sub-perpendicular to the dip of the mineralisation. • The true thickness of the mineralisation intersected in RC drill holes is currently unknown; however, thicknesses may be smaller than the reported intercepts within this report. • The true thickness of mineralisation intersected in diamond drill holes is >80% of downhole thickness.
