The Company also holds gold exploration licences in New South Wales. The Company aims to create shareholder value through the exploration and development of its current portfolio whilst continuing to evaluate corporate and exploration opportunities within the new economy and critical minerals sector.
Competent Person’s Statements
EQ Resources’ exploration and resource work is being managed by Mr. Tony Bainbridge, AusIMM, AIG.

Mr. Bainbridge has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in JORC Code 2012.
The technical information contained in this announcement relating exploration results are based on, and fairly represents, information compiled by Mr. Bainbridge. Mr. Bainbridge has verified and approved the data disclosed in this release, including the sampling, analytical and test data underlying the information. The diamond core samples are assayed at the ALS Laboratory in Brisbane, Australia. Mr. Bainbridge has consented to the inclusion in this release of the matters based on his compiled information in the form and context in which it appears in this announcement.

Mr. Bainbridge confirms there is no new information or data in this announcement that materially affects the historical results from the report issued by the Company (formerly known as Icon Resources Limited) titled, ‘Mt Carbine Project Resource Estimate by Geostats Services, October 2010’. The information included in this announcement and all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning this interpretation do not change this 2010 global resource estimate.
Forward-looking Statements
This announcement may contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements address future events and conditions and therefore involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated in such statements. Particular risks applicable to this announcement include risks associated with planned production, including the ability of the Company to achieve its targeted production outline due to regulatory, technical or economic factors. In addition, there are risks associated with estimates of resources, and there is no guarantee that a resource will have demonstrated economic viability as necessary to be classified as a reserve. There is no guarantee that additional exploration work will result in significant increases to resource estimates. Neither the Australian Securities Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in policies of the Australian Securities Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this announcement.
