Lanthanein Resources Ltd (ASX: LNR) ( Lanthanein or the Company ) is pleased to announce assay results from the roadside drilling programme at the Murraydium Project in the Southeast of South Australia (Figure 3). The drill program targeted ionic clay hosted rare earths within the Loxton-Parilla Sands unit in a region which is host to an extensive mineralised system at Koppamurra (Figure 2).
A total of 215 Air Core drill holes totalling 3,709 metres (Table 2) were completed. Results confirm the REE regional prospectivity where 40 drillholes returned greater than 500ppm TREO and five holes greater than 1000 ppm TREO (Figure 1).
Results include (Table 1):
-
SBT199: 2m @ 1,560ppm TREO including 1m @ 2,420 ppm TREO from 19m depth, with combined 23% Neodymium/Praseodymium (Nd/Pr) and 1.8% Dysprosium (Dy)
-
SBT190: 2m @ 808 ppm TREO including 1m @ 1264 ppm TREO from 14m depth, with combined 21% Nd/Pr and 2.5% Dy
-
SBT082: 1m @ 1085 ppm TREO from 23m depth, with combined 22% Nd/Pr and 2.2% Dy
-
SBT100: 1m @ 1080 ppm TREO from 15m depth, with combined 25% Nd/Pr and 2.8% Dy
-
SBT048: 1m @ 1055 ppm TREO from 19m depth with combined 14% Nd/Pr and 0.6% Dy
Proportions of Neodymium ( Nd2O3 ) from the mineralised intersection also range from 11% to 23% of TREO
The shallow nature of the rare earths (0 to 29m depth) will help with rapid exploration drilling to explore for a mineral resource where there has been support from landowners through consistent and transparent communication.
The Murraydium Project is located in the south-eastern region of South Australia with EL 6717 covering an area of 872 km[2] of the Murray Basin (Figure 3). The region is seeing continued activity in the exploration for REE minerals with the success of Australian Rare Earths (ASX:AR3) at their 100% owned Koppamurra Project, host to a total mineral resource of 101 Mt @ 818 ppm TREO (Figure 2), plus other successes with Resource Base Ltd (ASX:RBX) announcing a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate of 21Mt @ 767 ppm TREO at their Mitre Hill Deposit in the Murray Basin in Victoria.
The project area forms part of an extensive Tertiary strand plain comprising a series of sandstone‐dominant fluvial and beach‐dune strand complexes. The sand units commonly form undulating sand ridges interspersed with low lying areas of clay, mud and sand. The Koppamurra Deposit of REE‐bearing clays that contain the Yellow Tail and Red Tail deposits occurs within the lower part of the Loxton‐Parilla Sand unit (Figure 2). The Loxton‐Parilla Sand is a very extensive unit widely distributed across the southern Murray Basin. Extensive areas of Loxton‐Parilla Sand are exposed at surface within the Bordertown Block where it typically forms rolling terrain of low sandy hills and ridges.

Regolith Hosted REE Deposits - Background
There are several known types of regolith hosted REE deposits globally including, ion adsorption clay deposits, alluvial and placer deposits. The development of potentially economic regolith-hosted REE deposits requires a combination of a REE enriched protolith and weathering processes that concentrate the REE in the regolith. Ion adsorption type REE deposits are the dominant source of heavy REE currently mined in the world, with all economic examples of this type of deposit confined almost exclusively to areas underlain by granitic rocks in southern China. REE mineralisation in the Murray Basin at Australian Rare Earths (ASX:AR3) Koppamurra Project is hosted by clay material interpreted to have been deposited onto a limestone base (Gambier Limestone) and accumulated in an interdunal, lagoonal or estuarine environment. The mineralogy of the clay is indicative of formation under mildly alkaline conditions in a marine or coastal environment from fine grained sediments either river transported or windblown thereby supporting this interpretation.
Mineralogical test work conducted on a clay sample from the Koppamurra Project area established that the dominant clay minerals are smectite and kaolin, and the few REE-rich minerals detected during the SEM investigation are not considered inconsistent with the suggestion that a significant proportion of REE are distributed in the sample as adsorbed elements on clay and iron oxide surfaces. Work to date suggests that the source of the REE at Koppamurra is most likely basalt associated alkali volcanics of the Newer Volcanics Province in south-eastern Australia, with the wider Koppamurra project area being considered prospective for rare earth mineralisation.
However, whilst Koppamurra clays display ionic character, and the deposit shares a number of similarities with both ion adsorption clay deposits and volcanic ash fall placer deposits, there are also a number of differences, with further work required before a genetic model for REE

mineralisation at Koppamurra and the broader Murray Basin can be conclusively defined. In addition, further work is required to better define metallurgical recoveries, process flow sheets, effective mining methods, and project economics.
Previous Reported pXRF Results
As reported previously on 1 May 2023 (“Encouraging XRF Results from Drilling at Murraydium Rare Earths Project”), the Company conducted XRF testing of samples collected in chip trays from the first phase of the roadside Aircore drilling. With the publishing of the certified assay results it is now evident that there was a significant over reporting of the Nd/Pr values at that time. The Company has previously had a strong correlation between XRF measurements and certified assay values in the past, particularly on hard rock occurrences in WA, but also by the Company’s exploration consultants on sediment hosted REE occurrences in SA. Discussions with other operators exploring for REE mineralisation in the ionic clay hosted environments particularly in the southeast of SA, has now cast doubts on the validity of the testing procedure using commonly available XRF instruments.
Subsequent information obtained by the Company suggest that a XRF instrument with a higher energy 55kV x-ray tube is required to accurately measure levels of Lanthanides in ionic clay hosted environments. The Company is currently investigating the issue of the over reporting of Nd/Pr levels taken with the standard 50kV x-ray tube instrument by cross checking samples with instruments with both energy ratings.
This announcement has been authorised for release by the Directors of the Company.

JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1 report template
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 specific 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 fire 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. |
• The RC Aircore drilling program was undertaken by McLeod Drilling using industry standard air core drilling methods. To date, a total of 215 AC drill holes for 3,709m have been drilled at the Murraydium Project • Drill spoil from each 1m from drill rig was collected in buckets in rows adjacent to the rig. An aluminium scoop was used to then sub-sample each spoil pile to create a 2-3kg 1m sample in a calico bag. A further smaller sample was collected with a spoon and placed in chip sample tray. • All samples are submitted to Bureau Veritas Laboratories in Adelaide. • At the laboratory, the samples are oven dried at 105 degrees for a minimum of 24 hours and secondary crushed to 10mm. The samples are submitted for analysis using ICP Scan (Mixed Acid Digest – Lithium Borate Fusion). • Commercially obtained standards are inserted by the laboratory at a rate of ~ 1 in 15 into the sample. |
| Drilling techniques |
• Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face- sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc). |
• LNR has completed air-core drilling, an industry standard technique. • McLeod Drilling used a Toyota Land air core rig and support vehicle for the Aircore drilling. • All drill holes were 3 inches in diameter. • Aircore drill rods used were 3m long. • AC drilling employed rotary blade type bit, with compressed air returning the chip samples through a reverse circulation up the innertube to a cyclone for sampling. • All Aircore drillholes were vertical with depths varyingbetween 6m and 30m depths. |
| Drill sample recovery |
• Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. • Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. • Whether a relationship exists between |
• No water was encountered during the drilling process, all drill samples were dry samples. • Sample recovery is expected to have minimal negative impact on the sample representativity. No significant loses of samples were observed due to the shallow drilling depths (≤30m) |

| sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material. |
• Samples weights were not measured or weighed due to the preliminary nature of the project at the time of drilling. • Drilling was undertaken using a ‘best practise’ approach to achieve maximum sample recovery and quality through the mineralised zones. • Drill spoil from each 1m from drill rig was collected in buckets in rows adjacent to the rig. An aluminium scoop was used to then sub-sample each spoil pile to create a 2-3kg 1m sample in a calico bag. A further smaller sample was collected with a spoon and placed in chip sample tray. • Best practise sampling procedure included: suitable usage of dust suppression, suitable shroud, lifting off bottom between each metre, cleaning of sampling equipment, ensuring a dry sample and suitable supervision by the supervising geologist to ensure good sample quality. • At this stage, no known bias occurs between sample recovery and grade. |
|
| Logging | • Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. • Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography. • The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged. |
• AC chips were logged by a qualified geologist with sufficient experience in the geological terrane and relevant styles of mineralisation using an industry standard logging system which could eventually be utilised within a Mineral Resource Estimation. • Lithology, mineralisation, alteration, veining, weathering and structure were all recorded digitally. • Chips for each metre were stored in chip trays for preservation and future reference. • Logging is qualitative, quantitative or semi- quantitative in nature. Every drill hole was logged in full and logging was undertaken with reference to a drilling template with codes prescribed and guidance to ensure consistent and systematic data collection. |
| Sub- sampling techniques and sample preparation |
• If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. • If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. • For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample |
• Single metre samples were collected from the drill spoil using a ‘scoop’. • Scoop sampling was carried out by contract field assistant. The scoop samples were collected by taking a cross section of the drill spoil, to ensure a representative sample of the full 1m sample was collected. |

| preparation technique. • Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. • Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling. • Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. |
• The Competent Person considers scoop sampling acceptable method for representative sample given the low natural inherent variability of the mineralisation. • Sample preparation is to be carried out by Bureau Veritas Laboratories. • Drill spoil from each 1m from drill rig was collected in buckets in rows adjacent to the rig. An aluminium scoop was used to then sub-sample each spoil pile to create a 2-3kg 1m sample in a calico bag. A further smaller sample was collected with a spoon and placed in chip sample tray. |

Laboratory Analysis • ICP Scan (Mixed Acid Digest – Lithium Borate Fusion) is considered appropriate for REE determination. • Samples are digested using a mixed acid digest and also fused with Lithium Borate to ensure all elements are brought into solution. The digests are then analysed for the following elements in ppm or in % when shown (detection limits shown in ppm): Ag(0.2), Al%(0.005), As(1), Ba(20), Be(0.5), Bi(0.1), Ca%(0.01), Cd(0.5), Co(1), Cr(20), Cs(0.1), Cu(2), Fe%(0.01), Ga(0.2), Hf(0.2), Ln(0.05), K%(0.01), Li(10), Mg%(0.005), Mo(0.5), Na%(0.01), Nb(0.5), Ni(2), P%(0.005), Pb(1), Rb(0.2), Re(0.1), S(50), Sb(0.1), Sc(1), Se(5), Si%(0.005), Sn(0.1), Sr(0.5), Ta(0.1), Te(0.2), Yh(0.1), Ti%(0.005), Tl(0.1), U(0.1), V(5), W(0.5), Y(1), Zn(2), Zr(10), La(0.1), Ce(0.1), Pr(0.05), Nd(0.05), Sm(0.05), Eu(0.05), Gd(0.2), Tb(0.02), Dy(0.05), Ho(0.02), Er(0.05), Tm(0.05), Yb(0.05), Lu(0.02). • Bureau Veritas completed its own internal QA/QC checks that included a Laboratory repeat roughly every 22 samples and a standard reference sample roughly every 6 samples and a blank roughly every 40 samples prior to the results being released. • Analysis of QA/QC samples show laboratory data to be of acceptable accuracy and precision. • No standards or blanks were submitted Lanthanein Resources. • Assays are covered under the NATA scope of accreditation. Documents procedures are in accordance with ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems. |

| Relationship between mineralisatio n 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’). _ |
• Drillhole angle relative to mineralisation has been almost perpendicular, with vertical drillholes through the flat horizontal mineralisation related to the regolith. Generally, the stratabound intercepts are close to true width. |
| Diagrams | • Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
• Refer to figures within this report. |
| 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 accompanying document is a balanced report containing drilling results that are consistent with the JORC guidelines. Where data may have been excluded, it is not considered material. |
| Other substantive exploration data |
• Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; 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. |
• All material results are reported in this release. |
| Further work | • The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions 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. |
