ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
27 January 2026
High-Grade Antimony, Copper and Silver Confirmed at US Antimony Project
Up To 15.05% Sb, 17.8% Cu and >10,000ppm Ag, Dollar Project, Nevada. Follow up planning underway
HIGHLIGHTS
-
High-grade antimony, copper and silver assays returned from initial reconnaissance visit to Dollar Antimony project.
-
Rock chip samples from historic working dumps returned exceptional grades, including:
-
15.05% Sb (antimony) from a quartz-stibnite vein float.
-
17.8% Cu (copper), 8.96% Sb and >10000ppm Ag (overlimit) from historic dump material.
-
7.34% Sb from outcropping 15cm vein in a historical adit roof.
-
Results strongly support the presence of a prospective polymetallic vein system containing high-grade antimony, copper and silver.
-
Gold (Au) mineralisation is evident, though fire assays for gold are pending resubmittal for QA/QC verification review.
-
Project is 12km from Kinross Gold’s Round Mountain Gold Mine and 7km from a sealed road in Nevada, one of the most favourable mining jurisdictions in the world.
-
Detailed follow-up exploration, including a systematic soil sampling program, is scheduled to commence in March/April 2026.
EV Resources (ASX: EVR) (“EVR” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce highly encouraging assay results from an initial site visit to its 100%-owned Dollar Antimony project in Nevada, USA.
The reconnaissance program, conducted in November 2025 by Managing Director, Mike Brown, and a consulting geologist, was designed to validate historical workings and assess the style of mineralisation. The results have successfully indicated the presence of high-grade polymetallic veins, enriched with critical metals – specifically antimony and copper – along with a significant precious metal endowment. The property has historic adits dating back to World War 2, with no modern exploration reported.
Managing Director and CEO, Mike Brown, commented: “The results are very promising in terms of indicating the presence of high-grade antimony, copper, silver and gold values on the Dollar project. All these metals are near all-time price highs and receiving significant attention, with all four metals on the US Government’s Critical Minerals list. The favourable location of the Project, when combined with the focus the US Administration is putting on these metals, provides a very positive environment for the Company to advance activities. We are now commencing planning for a detailed soil survey to cover the property.”
Reconnaissance Sampling Results
In November 2025 Mike Brown and a consulting geologist collected rock chip samples on a reconnaissance trip to the Dollar project from Reno, Nevada. The project area was reached via sealed roads, then 10km on public gravel roads to the Company’s claims. Historical workings were accessible by internal access tracks. All workings have been filled in or gated by Forest Service.
Primarily sampling of dumps was undertaken given the first pass nature of the site visit, and while this is not considered to be representative of the actual grades, it serves to indicate the type and nature of mineralisation present. Whilst structural measurements were taken from the fault zone shown in Figure 2, orientations of other structures from historical workings are inferred until further work can confirm these. Significant assays results returned indicate highly prospective mineralisation (see Table 1). The results suggest that there are at least two mineralisation styles being present on the property with distinct orientation and mineralisation (see Figures 4, 5 and 6);
a) Polymetallic mineralisation consisting of Cu, Sb, Au and Ag, and, b) Quartz-stibnite vein system.

Cautionary Statement: Au_ppm* results reported by the laboratory are currently subject to a quality investigation due to under-reporting of Au fire assay in a QA/QC standard. Updated gold values will be released if necessary once verified.
The highest antimony assay, 15.05% Sb, was returned from sample D-18, a quartzstibnite/stibiconite-limonite vein float, see Figure 2b, located in the refilled adit shown in Figure 2. This sample is interpreted to be derived from the same vein structure sampled in sample D-19 (Figure 2a), based on identical geochemistry and the vein morphology.

Strategic Significance & Next Steps
The Dollar project results strengthen EVR’s vision of becoming a significant antimony supplier to the critically under-supplied North American markets. Developing a domestic (US) based project could also qualify EVR for financial and permitting incentives under current US legislation aimed at reducing their dependence on Chinese supply chains. Based on these very promising early
results the Company is planning to undertake a detailed soil geochemical program and mapping. This is likely to start in March or April.

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections)
| Criteria | JORC Code Explanation | Commentary |
| Sampling techniques | • Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specifc specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. • Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. • Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report • In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fre assay’). In other cases, more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information |
• Float and dump samples were collected as random representative samples. • Channels were between 50cm to 100cm long, 10cm wide, and 3cm deep. Surfaces were cleaned. The channels were sampled on a continuous basis. • The samples were collected and bagged and labelled. • Sampling avoided over or under representation of soft/hard mineral phases. |

| Exploration done by other parties |
• Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. |
• The licences have been subjected to small scale informal mining over several decades, but no systematic exploration has been conducted. • The USGS undertook regional geochemical sampling work in between 1983 and 1984, with initial stream sediment samplingbeingfollowed upwith a rock chipsample taken |
| in 1985. Rockchip reported >10,000ppm. The property reportedly produced 30ton of antimony during WWII- this has not been confirmed by the Company. • There are no other reports of other exploration activity to the Company’s knowledge. • The prospect is located in the Jett Mining District on the eastern slope of the Toiyabe Range in Nye County, Nevada. The regional geology map indicates the prospect lies at the contact between Tertiary volcanic rocks and unconsolidated Quaternary sediments. The Toiyabe Range is a horst block composed primarily of uplifted Paleozoic sedimentary rocks, including limestone, shale, and siltstone, which are bordered and locally overlain by Tertiary volcanic rocks. • Mineralization in the district, particularly for antimony, is structurally controlled and hosted in shear zones and faults. A notable occurrence, the Dollar antimony-silver mine, is located at the mouth of Boyd Canyon and features stibnite mineralization along a shear zone at the contact between silicified limestone and shale. This geological setting, involving Paleozoic sediments intruded or overlain by Tertiary volcanics with significant structural preparation, is characteristic of many precious and base metal deposits in the Great Basin |

| Drill hole Information | • A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: • easting and northing of the drill hole collar |
| • No drilling has been conducted. • No data aggregation has been applied to the results. |
|||
|---|---|---|---|
| • elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar • dip and azimuth of the hole • down hole length and interception depth • hole length. • If the exclusion of this information is justifed on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case. |
• No drilling has been conducted. | ||
| Data aggregation methods |
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g., cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. • Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high- grade results and longer lengths of low-grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. • The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
• No data aggregation has been applied to the results. |
| • Channel sample widths are representative of true thickness. • Diagrams in the report include location maps, regional maps and detailed project area maps. These provide an adequate visual representation of the exploration areas. • The reports provide a balanced presentation of early-stage geological observations with sample data reported in full. • No selective reporting was used that could misrepresent the overall results. • All available samples and results have been disclosed. |

|---|---|---|---|
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
• These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. • If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. • If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |
• Channel sample widths are representative of true thickness. |
|
| Diagrams | • Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any signifcant discovery being reported. These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
• Diagrams in the report include location maps, regional maps and detailed project area maps. These provide an adequate visual representation of the exploration areas. |
|
| Balanced reporting | • Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results. |
• The reports provide a balanced presentation of early-stage geological observations with sample data reported in full. • No selective reporting was used that could misrepresent the overall results. • All available samples and results have been disclosed. |
| • No other activity has been conducted on the Property apart from a reconnaissance trip and the samples reported in this table and release. • EV Resources intends to pursue standard early-stage exploration activities in order to define potential drill targets. These include detailed soil sampling grid and mapping. If results are positive the appropriate geophysical method for narrow mineralised systems might be conducted prior to a future drilling campaign. |

|---|---|---|---|
| Other substantive exploration data |
• Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geologicalobservations; geophysical surveyresults; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances. |
• No other activity has been conducted on the Property apart from a reconnaissance trip and the samples reported in this table and release. |
|
| Further work | • The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateralextensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling). • Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive. |
• EV Resources intends to pursue standard early-stage exploration activities in order to define potential drill targets. These include detailed soil sampling grid and mapping. If results are positive the appropriate geophysical method for narrow mineralised systems might be conducted prior to a future drilling campaign. |
