ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

28 January 2026

High-Grade Critical Metals Results Enhance US Pipeline

Up To 9.82% Sb, 24.00% Cu and 434ppm Ag, Milton Project, Nevada. Follow up planning underway

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Reconnaissance rock chip sampling has returned high-grade antimony, copper and silver assays from the Milton Antimony project.

  • Significant results from historic workings including:

  • 9.82% Sb (antimony) from an historical adit stockpile.

  • 24.00% Cu (copper), 1.53% Sb and 434ppm Ag from within a 2m wide mineralised fault at entrance to an historic adit.

  • Assays strongly support the presence of a prospective polymetallic vein system where no modern exploration has been recorded.

  • Milton is located 35km from the Company’s Dollar project, which has recently reported exceptional critical metal results from a similar first pass sampling program.

  • Excellent access via sealed and gravel roads and only 80km from the Hawthorne Critical Metals Army Depot, creating a significant opportunity for the projects to potentially support domestic US supply.

  • Systematic soil sampling program is now being planned to commence in March/April 2026.

  • Lirios update: Results of re-assaying of antimony overlimit samples still pending from ALS Laboratories- to be released when received.

EV Resources (ASX: EVR) (“EVR” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce high-grade assay results from an initial site visit to its 100%-owned Milton Antimony Project in Nevada, USA. The program was designed to validate historical workings and assess the style of mineralisation.

Encouragingly, the results have confirmed the presence of high-grade polymetallic veins with significant critical metals, specifically antimony (Sb), copper (Cu) and silver (Ag). The property hosts at least three generations of historic mining dating back to the 19[th] Century and World War 2, yet no modern exploration reported on the claims.

Managing Director and CEO, Mike Brown, commented: “The initial reconnaissance visit and sampling old workings points to Milton offering significant prospectivity for critical metals. There appears to have been at least 3 generations of mining activity on the property, with no recent activity observable. The results are very promising in terms of indicating the presence of high-grade antimony and copper values on the Milton Project. The proximity to our Dollar project also provides good future synergies and potential. The project area is only 80km from the US Army Critical Metals Depot at Hawthorne and in a very favourable mining jurisdiction with good access. We are excited to commence follow up activities in late March to understand the potential scale of the systems that have been historically mined. Planning has commenced for an initial detailed soil survey to cover the property as the first step to properly evaluate the potential.”

The Milton Project is located in a favourable mining jurisdiction in Nye County, Nevada, 2.3km south of the historic Grantsville silver-lead mine, old township and remanent of the processing plant (see Figure 1). Access is excellent via sealed roads and public gravel roads. The Grantsville mine, which has more recently been worked as an open pit, is located on the northern edge of Grantsville Ridge, the main topographic north-south high running through the Project. A network of old access roads on the eastern side of Grantsville Ridge are in varying state of repair, and mostly passable using 4WD.

Reconnaissance Sampling Results

In November 2025, Managing Director, Mike Brown and a consulting geologist conducted a site visit to the Company’s domestic US antimony projects to assess mineralisation styles and access. The team focused on sampling dumps adjacent to historic shafts, adits, and pits, as well as exposed outcrop. While dump sampling is not considered representative of in-situ grades, these results serve to indicate the high-grade nature of mineralisation present on the project.

Two significant samples highlight the potential of the project area. Sample M-05 returned 9.82% Sb from a quartz-stibnite cobble located on a dump beside an infilled adit. This sample displayed massive stibnite and stibiconite mineralisation (see Figure 2).

Sample M-11 returned 24.00% Cu, 1.53% Sb and 434ppm Ag from a 15cm wide channel sample from the wall of a gated adit, known as the Tramway adit (see Figure 3). This sample was taken from the central part of a fault within a broader 2m wide weakly faulted zone and also returned arsenic values (>10,000ppm).

Visual observations at the Tramway adit indicate copper oxide mineralisation and staining extend along strike of the structure for at least 200m south of the adit entrance (see Figure 3). The adit appears to have had modest production based on size of waste dump, and the presence of tramway tracks relative to other historic workings observed on the project.

Strategic Significance

The Milton Project is situated just 35km from the Company’s Dollar Project, where sampling results from a concurrent reconnaissance program identified high-grade polymetallic mineralisation (see ASX release 27 January 2026). This proximity offers significant operational synergies.

Furthermore, the project is only 80km from the Hawthorne Critical Metals Supply Depot. Developing a US-based project in this location aligns with EVR’s strategy to support North American supply chains and may qualify EVR for incentives under current US legislation aimed at reducing their dependence on foreign supply.

Upcoming US Work Programs

The Milton Antimony project results support follow-up work given both the grades and the size of the workings at the Tramway adit. The Company is planning to undertake a detailed soil geochemical program and mapping at both projects. This work is scheduled to commence in March/April 2026 and will be used to delineate targets for future drilling. Other key catalysts include:

  • Q1 2026: Receipt of verified gold assays from Dollar Project samples.

  • March/April: Commence of detailed soil geochemical survey and geological mapping program at Dollar and Milton Projects to delineate drill targets.

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.
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
