7 COMPANY PRESENTATION | NOVEMBER 2024
High-grade Mineral Sands Discovery
Underexplored world class minerals province
-
Victoria’s Murray Basin hosts several major mineral sands projects with associated Critical Minerals including Rare Earth Elements ( REE ) at advanced stages of development
-
Several of these are adjacent to Falcon’s northwestern permits including WIM Resource, VHM, ACDC and Iluka
-
FAL announced in May 2024 a high-grade mineral sands discovery at the Farrelly Deposit, 12km south of Boort:
==> picture [65 x 23] intentionally omitted <==
----- Start of picture text -----
Farrelly
----- End of picture text -----
-
Previously explored by CRA in 1980’s
-
Despite intersecting some high-grade zones, limited follow-up
-
FAL completed regional mineral sands reconnaissance drilling in late 2023, testing several zones which returned multiple thick high-grade intercepts
-
Initial grain counting and mineralogical assessment shows potential for high value mineral suite similar to other Murray Basin deposits
-
Follow-up drilling in May 2024 confirmed high-grade Farrelly discovery, open in several directions
==> picture [88 x 34] intentionally omitted <==
COMPANY PRESENTATION | NOVEMBER 2024

Farrelly Mineral Sands Deposit
Shallow high-grade discovery
-
Of 91 holes announced in May 2024:
-
33 holes contained intersections >10% THM
-
11 holes contained intersections >20% THM
-
Thick continuous zone of high-grade mineralisation defined over 1,200 x 600m
-
Open in several directions with some of the best holes on the edge of the currently defined high-grade zone
-
Drill holes grades appear significantly higher than other deposits in the region at this scale
-
Planning for extensional drilling underway subject to cropping, land access and weather
-
Continuing to seek access to conduct low impact exploration drilling

Farrelly Mineral Sands Deposit
Positive Sighter tests
-
Preliminary metallurgical assessment completed on ~65kg bulk sample in August 2024 grading ~12.2% THM :
-
Heavy mineral concentrate ( HMC ) produced from conventional processing methods
-
High recoveries of zircon, ilmenite, rutile and monazite in the test work HMC
-
Coarser grain size relative to other Victorian deposits, with negligible HMC content in the fine fraction (<38 µm),
-
Potential for simplified processing and higher recoveries
-
Slimes (<38 µm) were easily treated and demonstrated high settling rates with no issues expected using conventional technology and methods
-
Next steps
==> picture [247 x 289] intentionally omitted <==
-
QEMSCANS (Scanning Electron Microscope) underway to look at minerals/elements in concentrates and potential deleterious elements

The Opportunity
Fosterville – ultra high-grade
-
Grade gradually increased with depth from 2012-2016
-
Discovery of Swan Zone in 2017 led to massive grade increase with highlights including 8.8m @ 991g/t incl. 0.95m @ 9,115g/t[1]
-
Reserve increased to 2.7Moz @ 31g/t[2] in 2018 with free milling ore and abundant visible gold
-
For several years Fosterville was the highest grade and most profitable mine in the world with cash costs <$200/oz
-
Led to land rush in Victoria and significant increase in gold exploration
-
Reminder of the potential of Victoria to host high-grade gold deposits

PHAC1975 3m @ 8.1g/t Au from 121m; including
1m @ 24.0g/t Au from 123m
(at end of hole, significance is uncertain)
- First pass drilling 3km to the northwest of PHAC1975 also intersected a highly anomalous zone:
• PHAC1977 3m @ 0.64g/t Au from 94m; including 1m @ 1.20g/t Au from 94m

New Gold Zones Identified
Two new trends in the north
Loddon Vale
-
Located 20km northwest of Pyramid Hill, the Loddon Vale trend now 8km long and a regional scale target
-
Flagged as a high priority area in 2023 but follow-up drilling locations were limited due to eastern tenement boundary and presence of nearby creek
-
Ground position now expanded with granting of EL008303 to the southeast and signing of Macorna Option for part of EL006549
Mead
-
Located 9km to the west of Cohuna, this is the northern most primary gold intercept in the Bendigo Zone
-
PHAC2813 2m @ 0.86g/t Au from 84m; including
- 1m @ 1.50g/t Au from 84m
-
Further follow-up drilling planned at both prospects

Karri Prospect
Large scale prospect with significant primary gold zones intersected over 3.5km of strike
-
Diamond and AC drilling has identified multiple primary gold zones over 4km of strike
-
Gold mineralisation coincidental with strongly elevated arsenic anomalism and remains open along strike and at depth
-
Diamond drilling has returned some exceptional results including 5m @ 14.0g/t Au from 100.9m incl. 2.2m @ 32.1g/t Au[1]
-
Results from 2022 drilling showing strengthening of alteration and mineralisation in central Karri
-
Review underway with plans for further infill aircore drilling to optimise drillhole location to vector in on highgrade mineralisation
