OVERVIEW

Eagle Mountain Chief Executive Officer, Tim Mason, said:

“We are pleased to present our first quarterly report as 100% owners of the Oracle Ridge Copper Mine Project. Through acquisition of the remaining 20% interest in the Project, the Company has increased its attributable copper metal by 81 million pounds of contained copper at an effective acquisition price of US$0.10/lb copper in JORC Resources and now has full exposure to the exploration upside at Oracle Ridge. The simpler ownership structure will also facilitate progression of the Project through to production. I sincerely thank the Vincere team, our former joint venture partners, who remain a supportive shareholder of our Company.

We see significant potential for further mineralisation to be discovered at Oracle Ridge. As part of our exploration activities, we have engaged the services of Dr Larry Meinert, a world-renowned expert on this style of mineralisation, to review our geological models and provide specialist guidance. Following extensive review, Dr Meinert concluded that there is further prospectivity for additional high-grade mineralisation to be discovered, supporting the decision to accelerate our exploration program.

Activities have certainly ramped-up over the quarter with three drills now turning on a full-time schedule. There are plenty of results pending with 11 holes awaiting assays, several with very encouraging “visuals”. We have recently seen a significant increase in the laboratory turnaround time for core cutting ahead of assays. For this reason, we are planning to transition to in-house cutting in September 2021 once our own automated core saw is delivered and installed in our Tucson core processing facility.

Arizona has experienced a heavy monsoon season this year which has led to minor drilling delays later in the quarter. We have earthwork equipment on site to undertake road repairs and minimise delays to drilling activities, with the monsoon typically runs from June to early September. The Arizona team has done very well to manage these challenging conditions.

I remain very optimistic for exciting months ahead as we begin to see the fruits of the accelerated exploration program which was the focus for the last quarter. I thank our great team and loyal shareholders who have enabled Eagle Mountain to really begin to see the potential of Oracle Ridge.”

Eagle Mountain Mining ( ASX:EM2 ) (“ Eagle Mountain ”, the “ Company ”) is pleased to provide shareholders and investors with an exploration and operations overview to accompany the Appendix 5B for the quarter ending 30 June 2021.

EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES

Oracle Ridge Copper Mine Project

Eagle Mountain aims to become a sustainable low-cost copper producer at the Oracle Ridge Copper Project (“Oracle Ridge”, “Project”). To achieve this goal, the Company continues to undertake various exploration activities around the mine with the aim of growing the existing high-grade mineral resource base.

Page 2

Oracle Ridge has significant infrastructure in place, including approximately 18 kilometres of underground development, access roads, tailings facility (since closed), underground electrical and water services.

Exploration activities at Oracle Ridge continued to expand and progress during the Quarter with the following key activities:

  • Accelerated drill program

  • Report received from skarn expert on prospectivity

  • Ongoing roadworks to access additional drill pads

  • Engaging additional geologists and support personnel for accelerated exploration

  • Ongoing surface diamond drilling program

Accelerated Drilling Program

Following ongoing positive exploration results, an accelerated drilling program commenced during the Quarter (see ASX announcement 22 April 2021). The decision to accelerate diamond drilling at Oracle Ridge follows a combination of:

  • Multiple strong assay and drilling results outside the existing JORC Resource;

  • Prospectivity for further mineralisation supported by a report from skarn expert, Dr Larry Meinert (see ASX announcement 19 May 2021); and

  • Increasing pipeline of high-priority targets within a few kilometres of the underground mine portals.

The accelerated exploration program will concentrate on the following areas:

  • Leatherwood Contact – The discovery of strong mineralisation along the Leatherwood contact in the southern area of Oracle Ridge opens significant potential for further mineralisation in this area and across the Project.

  • Resource Upgrade– Infill drilling with the view of establishing a Measured Resource within the next upgrade to the Mineral Resource Estimate. This program will be completed in preparation for mining studies in the areas likely to be mined early in the potential production profile. Metallurgical test work will also be undertaken to optimise the processing methods.

  • Oracle Ridge Extension “OREX ” – Prospective for additional skarn-hosted copper-silvergold mineralisation in a geological setting which is similar to the Oracle Ridge mine. Recent geological mapping and sampling identified outcropping mineralisation along a fourkilometre zone with copper grades up to 10.6% Cu (refer ASX announcement 20 March 2021). Further work will include geophysics, data compilation, drill targeting and drilling.

  • Golden Eagle – This area contains high-grade, shallow gold-copper mineralisation near historical mine workings. Following a review of the results of the recently completed mapping and drone magnetic programs in the area, drilling commenced in June 2021.

  • Red Hawk – Very strong geophysical anomaly which is prospective for a large copper mineralised porphyry system. The technical team is currently assessing additional

Page 3

exploration activities in the area including a selection of suitable drill pad locations for a first pass drill program.

The aim of the accelerated drilling program is to:

  • Expand the existing JORC Resources

  • Establish a Measured Resource category in the next Mineral Resource Estimate;

  • Drill test high-priority targets within a few kilometres of the existing mine; and

  • Assist vectoring towards potential deeper sources of mineralisation.

The accelerated drilling program includes mobilising additional diamond drill rigs during 2021. A second rig mobilised in late May 2021 with a third rig mobilised in early July 2021. The fourth and fifth rigs are planned to be mobilised later in 2021.

To support the accelerated drilling program, extensive roadworks continued during the Quarter to establish new drilling pads. Some of the zones with very high copper assay grades could not be followed up previously due to the location of access roads at the time. The recently installed roads will now enable targeting of these prospective areas. The Company is also currently seeking permits from the United States Forest Service required for drilling on parts of OREX prospect.

Further Prospectivity concluded by Skarn Expert

During the Quarter, the Company received a technical report from Dr Larry Meinert, a worldrenowned expert on skarns and associated mineralisation. Dr Meinert’s review included examination of drill core, mapping of underground formations and assay analysis. Key conclusions from Dr Meinert’s report include:

  • The southern extension to the Oracle Ridge mine area is prospective for additional copper-rich mineralisation

  • Potential for additional skarn-hosted mineralisation exists in the central and southern part of the Oracle Ridge mine area beneath the Leatherwood intrusive and forms a prime target for deeper drilling

  • Aeromagnetics is an effective tool in targeting copper mineralisation at Oracle Ridge

  • Detailed logging of minerals across the deposit will allow vectoring towards copper-rich zones

Dr Meinert will continue collaborating with Eagle Mountain’s technical team to improve the knowledge of the mineralisation system, evaluate exploration results at near-mine targets such as OREX and define new prospective areas in the Oracle Ridge region.

Exploration Drilling

The surface diamond drill program continued during the Quarter with the aim of expanding the existing mineralisation. One drill focused on resource expansion drilling during the Quarter and a second rig mobilised in late May 2021 to target other prospective zones around the mine. A third drill commenced in early July 2021.

17 holes totalling of 4,615 metres were drilled during the period.

Selected assays results received during the Quarter include[1] :

  • 10.6m at 2.10% Cu, 16.92g/t Ag and 0.58g/t Au from 231m (WT-21-15)

  • 21.2m at 1.33% Cu, 12.53g/t Ag and 0.22g/t Au from 297.7m (WT-21-15)

  • 5.7m at 4.44% Cu, 44.87g/t Ag and 0.93g/t Au from 314.6m (WT-21-12)

  • 3.3m at 3.71% Cu, 25.26g/t Ag and 0.47g/t Au from 198.7m (WT-21-09)

Extensional drilling on the eastern Talon area intersected high-grade mineralisation (5.7m at 4.44% Cu, 44.87g/t Ag and 0.93g/t Au) along the Leatherwood-Sediments contact. This intercept was approximately 45 metres to the south of the previous intersections which included[2] :

  • 13.3m at 2.43% Cu, 52.6g/t Ag and 0.94g/t Au from 348.7m (WT-20-10)

  • 12.7m at 3.96% Cu, 49.11g/t Ag and 1.38g/t Au (WT-21-06)

The results from WT-21-12 continue to confirm the Leatherwood-Sediments contact as a richly endowed geological feature in the eastern Talon area. Mineralisation along the contact remained open to the east and to the south with some potential for expansion towards the west.

Drilling on the western side of the Talon indicated the potential for stacked lodes with multiple mineralised zones in hole WT-21-15. Subsequent to the end of the Quarter, assay results for nearby holes WT-21-16 and WT-21-17 (refer ASX announcement 29 July 2021) also confirmed the presence of stacked mineralised lodes the area. This is extremely encouraging as the stacked lodes have the potential to add significant tonnes to the existing JORC resources. Follow up drilling is planned to the south of this area.

Two holes (WT-21-13 and WT-21-14) were abandoned as they intersected a fault zone that had not been previously recognised. Given that the structures define the ‘plumbing system’ for this style of mineralisation, this zone may be very important and has been incorporated into the geologic model.

Near Mine Mapping

Results of a detailed mapping program at the OREX prospect and parts of Golden Eagle were received during the Quarter. Approximately 100 grab samples were collected with many returning high-grade mineralisation. The mapping delineated a four kilometre contact along the lower Leatherwood with extensive outcropping mineralisation. Multiple high-grade rock chip samples were received. The prospectivity for additional skarn-hosted copper mineralisation at OREX is enhanced from these results. (see ASX announcement 16 April 2021)
