MULTIPLE CONDUCTORS IDENTIFIED AT ORION Ni-Cu-PGE
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Fixed Loop Electromagnetic (“FLEM”) survey over Orion Ni-Cu-PGE target has defined three strong, large conductors, coincident with magnetic anomalies within the Ruins Dolerite.
-
These are the three strongest conductors defined to date at Tarraji-Yampi, additional FLEM surveys to be undertaken at Orion once field crews mobilise in June 2021.
-
All approvals received for Orion drilling to commence June 2021.
Dreadnought Resources Limited (“ Dreadnought ”) is pleased to announce the results of the ground based FLEM survey at Orion, part of the Tarraji-Yampi Project in the Kimberley Region of Western Australia. This program was designed to define Ni-Cu-PGE targets at Orion ahead of the 2021 RC drilling program.
The FLEM survey has defined three large, strong conductors at Orion which are coincident with magnetic anomalies within the Ruins Dolerite. The correlation of the FLEM and magnetic anomalies is supportive of massive pyrrhotite mineralisation as seen in magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE systems. Previous mapping at Orion identified blebby pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite mineralisation within the Ruins Dolerite, further supporting the potential of the system.
Dreadnought Managing Director, Dean Tuck, commented: “Dreadnought is pleased to have defined

three conductors at Orion ahead of the 2021 drilling program. These are the strongest conductors defined to date at Tarraji-Yampi and are highly encouraging of a mineralised Ni-CuPGE system at Orion. There are other prospective areas at Orion which will also be in June 2021. We look forward to testing these targets as part of the drilling program commencing in June 2021.

FLEM Survey at Orion Ni-Cu-PGE (E04/2315: 80%)
In April 2021, three FLEM surveys were undertaken at Orion covering coincident VTEM and airborne magnetic anomalies to define drill targets ahead of planned drilling in June 2021.
The FLEM survey successfully defined three highly conductive anomalies, the strongest defined yet at Tarraji-Yampi. The anomalies sit within the Ruins Dolerite which is prospective for massive sulphide Ni-Cu-PGEs mineralisation. Encouragingly, these FLEM conductors correlate with magnetic anomalism suggesting massive pyrrhotite sulphide which is often associated with magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE mineralisation. Previous mapping at Orion identified blebby pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite sulphides within the Ruins Dolerite further supporting a fertile system.

| Plate Name | Orion A | Orion B | Orion C | Texas |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Depth to Top | -75m | -105m | -65m | -40m |
Due to time constraints, not all VTEM-mag anomalies at Orion were surveyed. Additional surveys will be undertaken when field crews mobilise to site in June 2021. Any additional drill targets defined will be drilled as part of the June 2021 RC drilling program.

Background on Texas and Orion Ni-Cu-PGE targets (E04/2315: 80%)
Texas and Orion are magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE targets hosted within the Ruins Dolerite. In 2015, an airborne VTEM survey was flown resulting in the identification of Texas and Orion as multiple EM anomalies +/- coincident magnetic anomalies hosted within a thick Ruins Dolerite sequence.
In 2019, Dreadnought conducted a detailed airborne magnetics survey and a FLEM survey at Texas identifying a strong conductor within the Ruins Dolerite.
Recent field work at Orion identified outcropping disseminated and blebby sulphides in sub-cropping Ruins Dolerite in close proximity to the airborne VTEM anomalies. This indicates sulphur saturation within the Ruins Dolerite and means the VTEM anomalies may be associated with massive sulphide accumulations.
With all approvals in place, drilling will commence as soon as the roads are opened after the late wet season in June 2021.

Background on Tarraji-Yampi
Tarraji-Yampi is located entirely within the Yampi Sound Training Area (“YSTA”), a commonwealth owned Defence Reserve in the West Kimberley, ~80kms from the port of Derby. The YSTA is the second largest defense reserve in Australia after Womera in South Australia and was been off limits to mineral exploration from 1978 to 2013.
Copper was discovered and mined in the early 1900s with the only significant exploration since undertaken by Western Mining Corporation in 1958 and Australian Consolidated Minerals in 1972 with both parties exploring for copper. Since opening up for exploration in 2013, Dreadnought has managed to secure the largest footprint within the YSTA and developed strong working relationships with both the Department of Defence and the Dambimangari People. Dreadnought has completed successful drilling programs at the Chianti-Rufina VMS and Grants Cu-Au targets. In addition, geophysical and geochemical surveys have resulted in the definition of over a dozen drill targets.
The Texas and Orion Ni-Cu-PGE, Fuso and Paul’s Find Cu-Au and Chianti-Rufina VMS have all approvals in place for drilling to commence in June 2021.

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.
