Olympus Scandium Project Update

Access discussions Underway

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Access discussions commenced: Discussions with Ngaanyatjarra Council on access to the Olympus project have begun with a precedent Native Title Agreement currently being reviewed by Hawk

Olympus has potential to host a new scandium province: Olympus highlighted by a large 7km × 4km +500 ppm Sc scandium soil anomaly (pre-JORC 2012 pXRF analyses) with select RAB intercepts up to 11 m @ 934 ppm Sc from surface (1m RAB samples to 2,164 ppm Sc).

  • Strategic fit: aligns with HWK’s plan to drive near-term value by adding scalable critical-minerals upside in a Tier-1 jurisdiction.

  • Scandium is a strategic high value rare earth (or ‘critical’) metal with applications in lightweight aluminium alloys, fuel cells and advanced technologies. Reliable new supply is scarce, giving Hawk the opportunity to create significant value by advancing a large-scale scandium discovery.

Immediate work program : Continue access discussions with the Ngaanyatjarra Council to enable due diligence soil sampling to confirm historical results and follow-up across priority zones.

Hawk Resources Limited (ASX: HWK) ( Hawk or the Company ) is pleased to announce that it has commenced discussions with the Ngaanyatjarra Council ( NG Council )) on gaining approval from the Traditional Owners to carry out exploration on the Olympus scandium project ( Olympus ). A precedent Native Title Agreement ( NTA ) has been provided by the Council which the Company is currently reviewing ahead of commencing negotiations.

Cautionary Statement: In relation to the disclosure of pXRF results, the Company cautions that estimates of mineral abundance from pXRF results should not be considered a proxy for laboratory assay results. Lab assay results are required to determine widths and grades of

  • . mineralisation. Some variation from results presented in this announcement would be expected from laboratory analyses.

ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 29 January 2026

==> picture [115 x 71] intentionally omitted <==

Hawk announced the acquisition of an option to earn up to 80% of the Olympus scandium project in Western Australia’s West Musgrave region ( Option ) on 17[th] October 2025.[1] Accompanying this announcement was a capital raise linked to the acquisition which was completed on 28[th] November, 2025[2] . Hawk’s focus from the start of 2026 has been initiating discussions with the Council to understand and progress the approval process for exploration on the project.

Olympus has potential for the discovery of a major new scandium province. It was previously explored for copper, nickel, cobalt, platinum group elements (PGE) and gold between 2001-2009. A review of pXRF analyses of soil, lag and RAB samples has identified a 4km x 7km scandium soil anomaly with grades up to 1,284ppm Sc and peak RAB assays of 2,164ppm Sc over 1.0m sample intervals (see Figure 1).

Managing Director of Hawk Resources, Scott Caithness, commented:

“Following the Olympus option acquisition and accompanying capital raise in Q4, 2025, Hawk has now commenced discussions with the NG Council on gaining the approval of the Traditional Owners to explore the project. The Ngaanyatjarra lands are private and there is a requirement for explorers to have a Native Title Agreement and complete a Cultural Heritage Survey prior to commencing work. Hawk has been provided with a precedent Native Title Agreement by the NG Council which is currently under review. A Cultural Heritage Survey will also be required over the area of exploration focus.

“Hawk has some confidence that Native Title Agreement negotiations and the Cultural Heritage Survey will progress as there are other companies already exploring under agreements in Ngaanyatjarra lands and the Olympus area had an access agreement and underwent a cultural heritage survey prior to work done by the previous explorer almost 20 years ago. While this process may take some months to complete, it is important that Hawk develops and maintains strong local relations so that its exploration can move forward with community support.

“Olympus has the potential to be a major new scandium province hence it is critical that the Company gets this phase of work right.”

Olympus Exploration Access Process

Following initial discussions with the NG Council, Hawk has been advised that within Ngaanyatjarra lands ( NG Lands ), explorers must negotiate an NTA with the Traditional Owners of the land on which they want to explore and complete a Cultural Heritage Survey ( Survey ) prior to commencing exploration activities on the ground. The NTA sets out the terms and conditions governing companies working on NG Lands while the Survey will ensure that cultural heritage is protected.

To facilitate this process, Hawk has received a copy of the precedent NTA from the NG Council which is currently under review ahead of commencing negotiations. This will involve engagement with the Traditional Owners of the area in which the exploration will take place before being signed off by the Board of the Ngaanyatjarra Council. Once these negotiations are completed Ministerial consents to conduct exploration and enter the Ngaanyatjarra Lands can be sought

==> picture [568 x 67] intentionally omitted <==

from the departments of Indigenous Affairs and Mines and Petroleum within the Western Australia state government.

Following completion of the NTA, a Survey will be carried out over the land to be explored to ensure that cultural heritage sites are protected.

While it is too early for Hawk to predict the outcome of the NTA or Survey, it is worth noting that an access agreement was negotiated by the previous explorer in 2004 and a Survey was carried out in 2007 ahead of exploration over the area.[3] These agreements were terminated when the exploration licence was relinquished in 2009 however it provides Hawk with some confidence that a Native Title Agreement can be reached and the area will be open for exploration. Also, there are a number of companies actively exploring within NG Lands approximately 60km to the south of the Olympus area.

Olympus Background

Olympus is located in the West Musgrave region of Western Australia approximately 285km west of Yulara and 150km northeast of Warburton (see Figure 2). Access is via the unsealed Great Central Road. The nearest airstrip lies 45km to the northwest at the Warakurna Roadhouse and Warburton is also serviced by a sealed airstrip.

Olympus was previously explored by Redstone Resources Limited for nickel, copper, cobalt, platinum group elements (PGE) and gold between 2001-09. This work was reported prior to and not in compliance with JORC 2012. Redstone’s exploration included geological mapping, grid soil and lag sampling, rock chip sampling, ground magnetics and 42 shallow RAB holes on 7 lines. Highly anomalous Niton pXRF scandium results were reported in soil, lag and RAB samples.

This highly anomalous scandium in soil and lag occurs in a distinct 7km x 4km zone grading greater than 500ppm Sc. Within this there are five discrete zones grading +1,000ppm Sc as highlighted in Figure 1. The soil sampling lines were widely spaced 1.6km apart and samples were collected on average every 400m along lines. Infill was carried out where anomalous copper, nickel, cobalt, PGE or gold was located. Samples were analysed for scandium using a Niton pXRF analyser and Hawk cautions that the estimates of mineral abundance should not be considered a proxy for laboratory assay results. Lab assay results are required to determine

widths and grades of mineralisation and variation from the pXRF results would be expected from laboratory analyses.

Followup of anomalous targets included drilling 42 shallow RAB holes on seven lines. Twenty four of these holes on 4 lines were sampled at 1m intervals and analysed for scandium by Niton pXRF (sections A-B, C-D, E-F and G-H on Figure 1). The exploration was not targeting scandium and consequently the RAB lines did not test the 4km x 7km scandium soil anomaly however Line A-B was drilled just off the western edge of the anomaly and Line E-F traversed a separate scandium soil anomaly.

Figure 2 : Olympus project location plan

All four RAB lines intersected highly anomalous near surface scandium over 800m wide zones (See Figures 3-6). All pXRF analysed holes contained anomlaous scandium with intersections ranging from 2m to 11m thick and grading from 300ppm to 948ppm Sc. The highest individual 1m sample graded 2037ppm Sc. Significant RAB hole intersections include:

Scandium Projects in Australia

Scandium is a rare strategic critical mineral, unique because it has no primary mines globally (US Geological Survey[4] ). Current supply relies solely on by-product extraction from rare earth operations (China, Russia) or processing stockpiles.

Scandium’s importance and supply vulnerability has led to its formal designation as a critical mineral by the U.S., EU and Australian governments.

==> picture [568 x 67] intentionally omitted <==

Scandium key uses are in strengthening aluminium to provide exceptional strength-to-weight ratios, solid oxide fuel cells and global 5G and emerging 6G networks. It has vital applications in the automotive, aerospace and defence industries and is used in solid oxide fuel cells to stabilize zirconia electrolytes enabling next-gen fuel cells to achieve 60–70% electrical efficiency which is key to decarbonisation efforts. In 5G and 6G networks scandium components improve signal quality and energy efficiency.

The price of scandium metal on the Shanghai Metals Market is quoted at over US$3,000/kg[5] . It is produced as by-product from nickel and titanium mining with grades typically below 100ppm in the primary ore.

There are a number of stand alone scandium projects under exploration and feasibility in Australia with the majority near the town of Fifield in central New South Wales. This area is referred to as ‘Scandium Valley’ and project owners include Sunrise Energy Metals and Rio Tinto. The focus of project owners is on maximising the grade of their projects to improve viability.

Work Program and Next Steps

Hawk’s next steps at Olympus will include:

  • Negotiate and execute a Native Title Agreement with the NG Council and Traditional Owners of the Olympus exploration area (H1, 2026)

  • Complete a Cultural Heritage Survey over the Olympus exploration area (H1, 2026)

==> picture [568 x 67] intentionally omitted <==

  • Carry out due diligence soil sampling over the Olympus scandium anomaly (Q2-Q3, 2026)

Cautionary Statement: In relation to the disclosure of pXRF results, the Company cautions that estimates of mineral abundance from pXRF results should not be considered a proxy for quantitative analysis of a laboratory assay result. Assay results are required to determine the actual widths and grade of the mineralisation. Some variation from the results presented in this announcement would be expected from laboratory analysis of the samples.

The Olympus project is located in the West Musgrave Ranges in Western Australia approximately 300km west
of Yulara and 170km northeast of Warburton. It is held through two exploration licences (E69/3987 and
E69/3988) owned by Beau Resources (Beau) covering a total area of 309km2which were granted on the 16th
of October 2024 for a period of 5 years.
Unlisted Australian public company Opal Resources (Opal) has an exclusive binding option agreement with Beau
Resources Pty Ltd (Beau) enabling Opal to acquire 100% of the Olympus tenements. Hawk has executed a
binding Heads of Agreement (HoA) with Opal to earn an 80% interest in the Olympus scandium project in
Western Australia’s West Musgrave region.
Olympus lies within the Musgrave Block, an arcuate belt of Proterozoic metamorphic and intrusive rocks
covering approximately 140,000km2 in central Australia. The West Musgrave Region is flanked by
Neoproterozoic and Palaeozoic sedimentary basins, including the Officer Basin to the south, the Canning
Basin to the west and the Amadeus Basin to the north.
Compared with other Proterozoic terranes in Australia, the geology of the area is only moderately understood,
with relatively little research or detailed work having been undertaken. It has limited geological exposure however
the cover is generally considered thin and composed of a combination of sand, pisolitic laterite and calcrete in

style of mineralisation.
The project contains part of the Giles Intrusive Complex in the West Musgrave Bock. The main rock types are
gabbro, fractionated gabbro, granite, pegmatite and gneiss. While past exploration found anomalous copper
and PGE in soils, no known economic mineral deposits for the targeted commodities were discovered.

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:
This announcement covers Niton pXRF scandium assays for 29 RAB drilled in 2007-08 to followup copper,
PGE and base metal anomalies in 469 DLag soil samples assayed by Niton pXRF.
All soil and RAB hole sample details and pXRF assays are outlined in Appendices 1 and 2 of this
announcement. No new exploration data has been generated for this announcement - all relevant historical
data is referenced in the body of the announcement.
Easting and Northing of the drill hole
collar. 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
and_hole length._
If the exclusion of this information is
justified 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.
Not applicable. All relevant data has been reported and referenced in this announcement.
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.
The RAB hole scandium assays reported in the announcement have been calculated by simple averaging Niton
pXRF assays for 1m intervals over the reported mineralised interval.
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 RAB hole scandium assays reported in the announcement have been calculated by simple averaging the
Niton pXRF assays for 1m intervals down the holes over the reported mineralised interval.
The assumptions used for any reporting
of metal equivalent values should be
clearly stated.
Not applicable – no metal equivalent grades have been calculated for this announcement.

Relationship between
mineralisation widths
and intercept lengths
These relationships are particularly
important in the reporting of Exploration
Results.
The RAB hole scandium assays reported in the announcement have been calculated by simple averaging the
Niton pXRF assays for 1m intervals down the holes over the reported mineralised interval.
If the geometry of the mineralisation with
respect to the drill hole angle is known,
its nature should be reported.
All RAB holes are vertical. The mineralisation geometry is interpreted occur in near surface sub-horizontal zones
based on the drill hole intercepts. Infill drilling will be required to confirm this interpretation.
If it is not known and only the down hole
lengths are reported, there should be a
clear statement to this effect (e.g. ‘down
hole length, true width not known’).
All RAB holes are vertical. The mineralisation geometry is interpreted occur in near surface sub-horizontal zones
based on the drill hole intercepts. Infill drilling will be required to confirm this interpretation as the true thickness
of the mineralisation is not yet known.
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.
Maps are presented in the text of this ASX release.
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.
All new data has been reported in this announcement.
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.
A ground magnetic survey was carried out by Redstone Resources over the project area and regional
aeromagnetics from the WA Geological Survey has been used to assist in interpreting geology.

Further work The nature and scale of planned further
work (e.g. 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
