ASX Announcement

HISTORICAL SAMPLES FROM THE IVITTUUT PROJECT RETURN HIGHGRADE RARE EARTH RESULTS

Highlights

  • Eclipse confirms high-grade polymetallic rare earth mineralisation at Ivittuut for the first time, with new samples from historical drilling returning results of 536.30 ppm total rare earth elements, 3.54% tin and 3680 ppm tungsten

  • Samples of historical drill core from Gronnedal-lka returned high-grade results of up to 22,695 ppm TREO (Total Rare Earth Oxides) with significant europium values (Eu)

  • Samples of quartz core from the Ivittuut pit area returned silica analyses ranging from 99.12 to 99.7% SiO2

  • Maximum uranium value of 24.3ppm out of all results is well below the Greenland Government legislated maximum of 100ppm

  • Eclipse is progressing petrological and mineralogical determinations as a guide for future exploration

  • Further field sampling program presently in progress

Eclipse Metals Ltd (ASX: EPM ) ( Eclipse Metals or the Company ) is pleased to announce that laboratory analysis of samples from historical diamond drill core from its exploration licence MEL2007-45 in southwestern Greenland, have returned high-grade rare earth results and confirmed the project’s potential to contain deposits of high-grade quartz, cryolite, siderite, sphalerite and carbonate material.

Eclipse collected samples from historical drill core stored in a Greenland Government facility in Kangerlussuaq (ASX announcement 7[th] October 2021) for analysis by an Australian laboratory using MEMS81, ME-ICP06, and ME-XRF26 methods to identify multi-commodity mineralisation within the project area. Very low uranium values ranging from 0.7 to 24.3ppm are well below the Greenland Government legislated maximum of 100ppm

Sample analysis from selected sections of drill core returned significant values for a range of heavy and light rare earth elements ( HREE and LREE ) in both the the Ivittuut mine precinct and nearby GroneddaleIka carbonatite area. Core from the Ivittuut mine precinct which contained fluorite yielded a total REO (Rare Earth Oxides) value of 536.6 ppm. This is the first time that REE mineralisation has been confirmed within the Ivittuut mine sequence. Samples from Gronnedal-Ika carbonate returned values up to 22,695ppm total REO.

IVITTUUT SAMPLES

Samples of diamond drill core from the historical Ivittuut cryolite pit returned high grades of SiO2 (silica) (Table B) plus, unexpectedly, significant values for rare earth elements. Evaluation of the quartz body below the cryolite pit is a primary aim of exploration. Refer Figure 3 for drillhole locations around the Ivittuut pit.

This area has not been systematically explored for other commodities, including the REE mineralisation ofthe carbonatite complex, which has been well noted in academia (Goodenough, 1997). At Ivittuut the Company’s sampling program was centred on the quartz body below the pit, samples of which returnedassay of 99.7%, 99.39% , 99.65% and 99.12% SiO2 (Table B).

Both heavy and light rare earth elements were noted in assays from Ivittuut core samples; see Summary Table above.

A sample from the Ivittuut pit environment returned a high Tin of grade of 3.54% Sn.

GRONNEDAL-IKA SAMPLES

Samples of core from three of the diamond cored holes drillied in the Gronnedal-Ika carbonatite complex in the 1940s returned very significant analysis for rare earth elements with up to 22,695ppm total rare earth oxides (sample IVT 21 - 3). These holes were originally drilled to explore for deposits of magnetite (iron ore) which had developed in the contact area of later intrusive dolerite dykes.

The magnetite intersections were shown to be narrow and intermittent but recent sampling has returned very significant analyses of light and heavy rare earthe elements (see Tables A and B)

Eclipse’s ASX announcement dated 2 March 2021 described a magnetically anomalous zone identified by the Company’s geophysical re-interpretation. Figure 4 below clearly shows the strong correlation between REE mineralisation and magnetic zones - this will be used as the main geophysical tool in exploration for further REE mineralisation.

Historical sampling results also indicate very high europium values compared with other REE deposits. Europium has been recognised throughout the carbonatite intrusion at several times greater concentration than average for rocks elsewhere in this part of Greenland and many times that normally expected in carbonatites. Europium is in extremely short supply around the world.

Overall, the results confirm there is excellent REE potential at the surface in Gronnedal-lka. The REE prospectivity fits well with our mission to excel in the commercialisation of metals and minerals demanded in the production of green energy and required by industry to reduce pollutants. Historical exploration records indicate the potential for rapid development and production of cryolite, fluorite, quartz, REE, carbonate, zinc and siderite.

ABOUT THE IVITTUUT PROJECT

Ivittuut is located in southwestern Greenland and has a power station and fuel supplies to service this station and local traffic to support mineral exploration. About 5.5km to the northeast of Ivittuut, the twin settlements of Kangilinnguit and Gronnedal, respectively provide a heliport and an active wharf with infrastructure. The Gronnedal-lka carbonatite complex is less than 10km from Ivittuut and only 5km from the port of Gronnedal. This complex is also one of the 12 larger Gardar alkaline intrusions in Greenland and is recognised as one of the prime REE targets in Greenland by GEUS along with Kvanefjeld and Kringlerne (Tanbreez).

GRONNEDAL-IKA CARBONATITE COMPLEX

The Gronnedal-Ika carbonatite / nepheline syenite complex and later dolerite dykes are intruded into crystalline Archean basement rocks centered on 48º03’W: 61°14’N, about 10km to the northeast from Ivittuut.

The drill holes examined in this first visit were originally sited to obtain samples of nepheline syanite for ceramic manufacture but intersected contact areas of later olivine dolorite dykes carrying magnetite.

REE occurs throughout the carbonatite complex, especially in late-stage veins where it occurs as various strontium REE carbonate minerals.

Minerals identified within the complex include apatite, monazite, stronianite and synchysite which host LREE, as well as zircon and monazite which host HREE (LREE = light rare-earths. HREE = heavy rareearths).

Carbonate rock from this complex could also provide a neutralising agent for mine and process water for other operations in the region.

Analysis of geophysical data from Gronnedal-Ika carbonatite/dyke geological units has confirmed this complex to be far more extensive than previously known which is further encouragement for potential REE and sulphide mineralisation. An historical Dighem survey defined seven conductive targets which are recommended for follow up exploration and ground truthing.

Petrological and mineralogical determinations are continuing and will be used as a guide for future exploration.

RECENT EXPLORATION

A recent helicopter borne reconnaissance field program included collection of samples from the Ivittuut mine dumps and the Gronnedal-lka carbonatite intrusive outcrops.

Eclipse’s drill core sample analyses has provided additional significant information on the prospectivity of both the Ivittuut mine environ and the carbonatite occurrence and mafic dykes. Availability of an extensive core library from this project area will save considerable costs in providing a guide to future drilling to delineate REE mineralisation in this prospect.

Further surface samples from Gronneddal-Ika and from the Ivittuut low-grade tailing dump are being dispatched to Australia for analysis for REE elements, cryolite and quartz. The Company will announce progressive results from testing in due course.

This initial evaluation of drill core has provided significant additional information on the prospectivity of the Gronnedal-Ika carbonatite and mafic dyke occurrence which will save considerable future costs in exploring this REE deposit. Encouraging silica analyses and REE results from the Ivittuut pit environs provide strong enclouragement for future development.

Identification of scarce heavy REE’s has cemented the conclusion of the uniqueness of the polymetallic nature of the Ivittuut pit precinct. These results highlight the potential for much of the mineralisation within the pit to have economic value, thus enhancing potential economics for re-development of this mine. Future exploration will include evaluation of the granite and greisen wall-rocks of the pit for REE potential.

The results from Gronnadal-Ika have confirmed the potential for magnetically anomalous zones to be associated with REE mineralization, which will be used as a guide for future exploration drilling. A priority for further examination will be splitting and analysis of samples from core drilled during the 1940s.

FORWARD STRATEGY

Given the continued advancement of the Greenland development plan, the Company is continuing to review its asset portfolio to assess ways to best extract value from its projects for shareholders, including a potential repositioning of assets to ensure an appropriate exploration and development focus can be maintained in relation to the Ivittuut Project.

As part of that review, the Company is in early-stage discussions with third parties with respect to potential joint venture partnerships and other opportunities that will further advance our Australian projects and add value for Shareholders. The Company will keep the market updated as these discussions progress.
