Dynamic Metals Limited (ASX: DYM) (“ Dynamic ” or “the Company ”) is pleased to provide a report on its activities for the quarter ending 30 June 2024.
WIDGIEMOOLTHA PROJECT
The Widgiemooltha Project is located approximately 550km east of Perth and centred 100km south of Kalgoorlie. The Project lies within a known corridor of world class komatiitic nickel sulphide deposits and orogenic gold deposits and historic exploration activities have been centred on these two commodities. More recently, the area has emerged as a significant lithium belt with three lithium-caesium tantalum (“ LCT ”) pegmatite related mines developed in the past few years.
In March 2024[3] , Dynamic entered into a binding terms sheet for a farm-in and joint venture (“ Agreement ”) with ACN 654 242 690 Pty Ltd (“ HoldCo ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mineral Resources Limited, and MinRes (as guarantor of the initial cash payments), under which the Company was to, following the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, sell 40% of all lithium mineral rights held by Dynamic on the Widgiemooltha tenement package (see Annexure B) (“ Tenements ”) for $5M cash consideration (the “ MinRes Transaction ”).
Following completion (15 July 2024), HoldCo and Dynamic formed a 40% / 60% unincorporated joint venture. HoldCo can increase its stake to 65% by sole funding an additional $15M of exploration expenditure on the Tenements over the 4 years following completion. HoldCo has the further ability to elect to increase its stake to 80% by sole funding expenditure through to a Decision to Mine. Upon HoldCo earning 80% interest Dynamic must elect to either remain in Joint Venture and contribute to Joint Venture expenses or convert its interest into a royalty.

The MinRes Transaction only covers the lithium rights for the Project, with Dynamic retaining the rights for all other minerals.
With the completion of the MinRes Transaction, Dynamic has turned its attention to the gold potential of the package. The Company is in the process of evaluating and prioritising the multiple gold targets across the Widgiemooltha Project with the intention of drill testing targets over the next quarter.
LAKE PERCY PROJECT - 100% DYM
The Lake Percy Project is located approximately 120km west of Norseman, along the Hyden-Norseman Road. The Company’s tenements are centred around the northern extension of the Lake Johnston greenstone belt, which hosts the Emily Ann and Maggie Hays nickel mines and the more recent Medcalf spodumene discovery by Charger Metals[4] . The project is also near the Mt Day LCT pegmatite field 20km southeast, as well as the Earl Grey Lithium Project located approximately 60km to the west (currently under development by Covalent Lithium Pty Ltd, a joint venture between subsidiaries of Sociedad Quimica y Minera de Chile S.A and Wesfarmers Limited[5] ).

During the quarter, the Company confirmed and extended a large historical lithium soil anomaly at the Lake Percy Project[2] , part of its strategy to systematically evaluate the lithium potential of Dynamic’s substantial land package in Western Australia. An infill and orientation soil sampling program has been completed at the project with a total of 762 samples taken at 40m spacings on sample lines, with line spacings between 200m and 400m apart (Figure 3). The results from this program confirmed the presence of a significant lithium anomaly greater than 100ppm Li2O over an area of 2.5km by 2km.

DEEP WELL PROJECT - 80% DYM
The Deep Well Project is located approximately 30km east to southeast of Meekatharra and is a joint venture between M61 Holdings Pty Ltd (“ M61 ”) and Dynamic. The project area covers the southern extension of the Gnaweeda Greenstone Belt, which lies along the north-eastern most boundary of the Archaean Murchison Domain with the Southern Cross Domain part of the Youanmi Terrane within the Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia.
In the June quarter Dynamic embarked on the first heritage survey at Deep Well project with the Yugunga-Nya People, recognised as the Traditional Owners of the land upon which the project is situated, with the goal to minimise potential impacts on cultural heritage.
During the survey, a culturally sensitive discovery was made. With due respect to the Yugunga-Nya people, Dynamic chose to pause, then terminate the planned survey. The Company is considering alternative exploration targets at the project.

GENERATIVE WA
As part of the long-term growth strategy, Dynamic makes opportunistic tenement applications adjacent to or along strike of existing mining operations or advanced projects. Tenements that do not fall into one of the three main projects (Widgiemooltha, Lake Percy or Deep Well) are referred to collectively as Generative.
During the quarter the Company commenced target generation activities based on gold and lithium prospectivity at the Lindsays Project. In addition, a high resolution UAV magnetic survey was complete in the Leinster area. The Company also continues to pursue opportunities to capitalise non-core assets.
JV PROJECTS
The Dynamic Metals self-funding exploration model divests non-core assets, retaining exposure to upside via the exploration activities by partners. The Company has the following Joint Venture and Farm-In Agreements (Table 1).
| Project | Commodity | Company | DYM Interest |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deep Well | Nickel-Copper-PGE | M61 Holdings Pty Ltd | 80% |

Prospect Ridge JV - 70% GWR / 30% DYM
The Prospect Ridge Magnesite project area is located in northwest Tasmania, 40 km southwest of the Port of Burnie. It sits upon granted Exploration Licence EL5/2016 and covers 51 km[2] . The project consists of two magnesite deposits, the Arthur River and Lyons River deposits containing the third largest magnesite inventory in Australia.
The Arthur River prospect is a large high-grade magnesium deposit where previous exploration has identified an Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 25.1Mt @ 42.4% MgO[7] .
During the quarter, GWR released significant Phase 1 diamond drilling program results at the Arther River deposit, which consisted of four HQ3 diamond drill holes for 485.3 m (AR035 to AD038), results included[8] :
-
AR035, 118.7 m at 43.3% MgO from 6.3 m
-
AR036, 61.5 m at 42.9% MgO from 11.3 m
-
AR037, 30.8 m at 43,7% MgO from 92.7 m
-
AR038, 34.5 m at 42.1% MgO from 75.5 m
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, a Phase 2 drilling program at the Arthur River deposit commenced[8] consisting of six holes for 900m, with a third phase drilling program comprising of an additional 21 holes proposed to be undertaken. The Phase 3 drilling program will assist in increasing the confidence in the current JORC resource at the Arthur River deposit.
In parallel to the current and planned drilling programs, a Scoping Study[9] has been initiated using inputs from previous feasibility studies, recent drilling and from the Federal government funded Regional Research Collaboration Grant.
In addition, metallurgical testwork by Nagrom and CODES commenced with 97 sample pulps submitted to Nagrom, Perth for Au, Ag, Cu, Pb, Zn and Ni analysis, following up on anomalous sulphur and iron intercepts from the 2023 program and to investigate IOCG potential[10] .
CORPORATE
Payments to related parties totalled $93K for the quarter and consisted of remuneration paid to the Executive Director in line with her service and employment agreement and payments for services provided by NonExecutive Directors.
Use of Funds Comparison
As per Listing Rule 5.3.4, the Company has prepared a comparison of the Company’s actual expenditure on the individual items in the “Use of Funds” statement since the date of admission to the official list against the estimated expenditure on those items in the “Use of Funds” statement in the IPO Prospectus (Table 2).
In general, expenditure is on track and in line with expectations and budget for an active exploration company. Expenditure has increased on Generative WA as new projects are generated and evaluated.
At a macroeconomic level, general costs have increased in recent times, and the Company will monitor these factors and manage its forecast expenditure and cashflow requirements as required.

ABOUT DYNAMIC METALS
Dynamic Metals (ASX: DYM) is a dedicated exploration company focused on advancing an underexplored portfolio of minerals critical to decarbonisation and the growing battery metals market.
Dynamic’s flagship project, Widgiemooltha, covers an extensive area of ~800km[2] extending between Norseman and Kambalda. The Widgiemooltha region is highly prospective for nickel and gold and more recently emerged in significance for its lithium mineralisation and prospectivity. In early 2024, Dynamic entered into a binding joint venture and farm-in agreement with Mineral Resources Limited (ASX: MIN) (MinRes), whereby Dynamic will sell 40% of its lithium rights on the Widgiemooltha Project for $5m. MinRes can increase its interest to 65% by spending $15m and then to 80% by sole funding to a Decision to Mine.
In addition to Widgiemooltha, Dynamic holds an extensive portfolio of exploration tenure in Western Australia, including several joint venture positions in Western Australia where other parties are funding ongoing exploration to earn-in interest in the project. These projects are prospective for gold, nickel, lithium, iron ore and diamonds.
