ASX Release
21 October 2025
DRILLING CONTINUES TO INTERCEPT ANTIMONY AT COONAMBULA
This critical mineral discovery puts DTM as a potential candidate to deliver on the Australia-USA critical minerals pact signed overnight by US President Donald Trump and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, which will see Australia and USA invest $4.6 billion over the next six months into mining & processing projects as well as set a minimum price floor for critical minerals.
Dart Mining NL ( ASX:DTM ) ( Dart Mining or the Company ) is pleased to announce ongoing drilling success at the Coonambula Antimony-Gold Project located in Central Queensland. The project is a Farm-In Joint Venture agreement with Great Divide Mining ( ASX:GDM )(ASX: DTM 12 Mar 2025). HIGHLIGHTS

Dart Mining’s Chairman, James Chirnside, commented: “Drilling Continues to intersect antimony mineralisation at Coonambula, with massive Stibnite intersected in veining from drill holes 1, 2 and 3 in line with our geological interpretation. The Company is eager to continue the diamond drilling program across the Banshee Site, whilst awaiting first assays to be returned, and released to the market.”

Figure 1: Location plan showing planned hole locations and preliminary interpretation of mineralisation
Drilling has continued to progress rapidly at Coonambula and nearing the completion of hole 3. All holes to date have intersected antimony mineralisation in line with interpretation.
Antimony mineralisation is presenting as massive stibnite veining, with proximal disseminated stibnite in laminated quartz veins along major structures as shown in Figure 1 above and Figure 3 below. As previously reported the first hole, CBADD001, intersected mineralisation 0.6m of massive sulphide observed to be approximately 70% Stibnite at 42m. A second zone of stibnite massive sulphide veining was intersected at 70m downhole (ASX: DTM 2 Oct 2025). Assay results are expected to be returned in November.

COONAMBULA ANTIMONY-GOLD PROJECT
The Coonambula Antimony-Gold Project ( Coonambula or Project ) is located approximately 390km by road north-northwest of Brisbane, Queensland. Coonambula is 70km southeast of the multi-millionounce Cracow gold mine and 25km southwest of the Eidsvold goldfield (Figure 3). The Project is comprised of five granted Exploration Permits: EPM 15203, EPM 16216, EPM 25260, EPM 26743 and EPM 28433 covering 282 sq.km., and application EPM 29186 covering an area of 227sq.km.

Visual estimates also potentially provide no information regarding impurities or deleterious physical properties relevant to valuations.
Geology – New England Fold Belt geology hosts high grade quartz veins containing Sb-Au at Hillgrove and Wild Cattle Creek in NSW, and Antimony at Neardie near Gympie QLD. Mineralisation at Coonambula is hosted within intrusive granodiorites and holds the potential to host a large intrusion related gold system, with attractive magnetic signature and structural geology.
Two distinct types of reef mineralisation occur: Gold associated with arsenopyrite in quartz and highgrade antimony with calcite in quartz. Disseminated stibnite is recorded in the gold lodes (Malnic, 1985).
Banshee is one of the largest historical antimony mining complexes in Central Queensland, located 70km Southeast of the Cracow gold mine and 25km SW of Eidsvold. Banshee is a historic high-grade direct shipping ore antimony mine (worked variously between 1876 and 1983, The Banshee Mine when reopened in 1983 produced 20t of ore containing 4t of Antimony ( GDM Prospectus 2023 ). 12 RC and 1 diamond drill hole have been drilled over 650m of strike length at Banshee.
Directly east of Banshee lies another Antimony-Gold prospect called Lady Mary (previously called Lady May). This prospect lies 1km along strike from Banshee, potentially along the same E-W Banshee structure. Surface rock chip samples from old mine dumps at Lady Mary have returned up to 49.6% Sb and 1.3 g/t Au ( GDM Sep 2024 ). The area between Banshee and Lady Mary has not yet been explored and is a high priority target being assessed by the current IP survey.
The Perseverance mine was mined to 132m depth with mining widths up to 10m wide ( GDM Prospectus 2023 ). Past production of gold from the mine was reported as 20kt @ 20g/t Au (Malnic, 1985) however only 3 drill holes have been completed to date.
5 | P a g e
Total strike of the prospective antimony-gold-silver zone is approximately 5km with historic mines either side of Banshee. Lady Mary located 900m east of Banshee with additional historic mines occurring some 3km west of Banshee giving a potential E-W strike of 5km. Individual high grade antimony shoots are interpreted as having a strike length of 30-100m each based upon Banshee drilling where 3 shoots of this length exist in the central core zone.
In GDM’s 2023 prospectus ( GDM Prospectus 2023 ) consulting company Derisk stated that it: “ Considers that the Coonambula project tenements are prospective for mesothermal vein and stockwork gold and gold-antimony deposits, as well as intrusion-related and epithermal gold deposits. Most work at this project has focused on areas in and around historical mine workings. Derisk considers there is potential to define extensions or repetitions of known mineralisation at some of the historical workings. There is also potential to discover new mineralisation but exploration for these targets is at a very early stage. ”

NEXT STEPS
Dart Mining will progress farm-in exploration at Coonambula. In the first year of the farm-in Dart Mining intends to:
-
Complete and interpret IP Survey results.
-
Continue to drill and test the Banshee Antimony-gold trend
-
Conduct channel sampling across in-situ exposures of the mineralised zone
-
Refine the drill plan on results of IP Survey, with additional drilling targets expected to be generated
-
Develop a 3D model of the Banshee mineralisation and, if possible, declare a JORC (2012) Resource based upon the drilling results.

About Dart Mining
The Triumph Gold Project is Dart’s first step into an advanced intrusion related gold system project in Queensland. Dart will look to develop a regional presence in Queensland through advanced stage intrusion related and epithermal gold projects. Dart is farming into the Coonambula Antimony-Gold Project in Central Queensland. Dart Mining will continue to evaluate several historic goldfields in Central and Northeast Victoria including the Rushworth Goldfield and the new porphyry and lithium province in Northeast Victoria identified by Dart. The area is prospective for precious, base, and strategic metals. Dart Mining has built a strategic and highly prospective gold exploration portfolio in Central and Northeast regions of Victoria, where historic surface and alluvial gold mining indicates the existence of potentially large gold endowment.
