Cactus Drill Permitting Underway: Five copper-gold targets in Utah with drilling planned to start in December 2025. Targets include:
-
Cactus – Resistivity anomaly interpreted to extend 400m from the historical Cactus deposit which mined 1.3Mt grading 2.0% copper, 0.3g/t gold, 7g/t silver plus the untested and larger Wasp resistivity anomaly
-
Copperopolis – Three large scale linked chargeability anomalies below Copper grades up to 1,000ppm in soils (16x background) and an Historical drill hole on margin which intersected 30m grading 0.2% Cu
-
CZ-1 – Cactus analogy with intense magnetic low plus two high order
-
resistivity low anomalies at a structural intersection with copper in soils grading up to 332ppm Cu (5x background)
-
NYW - Potential extensions to Hawk’s 2024 drill holes at New Years prospect which intersected 26m @ 1.3% Cu and 30m @ 0.78% Cu
-
N-1 – Chargeability anomaly at structural intersection with copper grades in soils up to 875ppm (14x background)
-
Binding Heads of Agreement: Option executed to earn up to 80% of the Olympus Scandium Project in the West Musgrave region, Western Australia
-
Olympus has potential to be a major new scandium province : Olympus hosts a large 7 km × 4 km scandium in soil anomaly (+500 ppm Sc) defined by historical (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)
-
Successful completion of Placement: Hawk has received firm commitments to raise $5.0M (before costs) through a strongly supported placement of 250.0M shares at an issue price of $0.02 per Share.
Cautionary Statement: All historical assays for rocks and drill holes are regarded as indicative of exploration potential only and will be used to guide future exploration. 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 results presented in this announcement would be expected from laboratory analysis.

Hawk Resources Limited (ASX: HWK) ( Hawk or the Company ) is pleased to report on its activities for the quarter ending 30 September 2025.
Managing Director of Hawk Resources, Scott Caithness, commented:
“Permitting is underway at Cactus to enable five high potential copper-gold targets to be drilled. Based on geophysical modelling the highest priority Cactus, Copperopolis and CZ-1 targets could represent large tonnage high grade copper-gold rich breccias or intrusive sources for the copper-gold mineralisation historically mined in the district.
“The targets represent a series of untested resistivity, chargeability and magnetic geophysical anomalies with associated structures and highly anomalous copper in soils in a known historical high-grade copper-gold-silver mining district. The drilling is planned to commence in December.
“The opportunistic acquisition of the Olympus scandium project fits neatly with Hawk’s strategy of copper now plus critical-minerals optionality moving forward. Olympus offers Hawk a genuine large-scale opportunity for a high value rare earth element in a Tier-1 jurisdiction. Scandium has the unique ability to strengthen and reduce the weight of aluminium alloys, is used in solid oxide fuel cells and also in next-generation 5G/6G telecom networks. Global supply is constrained hence any scalable primary source of scandium offers strong strategic value and leverage to future demand growth.
“Historical work at Olympus defines a ~7km × 4km anomaly above 500ppm Sc (pXRF), supported by shallow RAB results including 5m @ 948ppm Sc and 11m @ 934ppm Sc from surface. Hawk’s first steps are to obtain permit-to-enter with the Ngaanyatjarra, run confirmatory laboratory assays to validate pXRF, and then execute a systematic program to test thickness and continuity.”
Cactus Drill Targets[1]
The historical Cactus mine within the Cactus district produced 1.3Mt of ore grading 2.07% Cu, 0.33g/t Au, 7.36g/t Ag. Hawk’s work on its Cactus project during the quarter identified five copper-gold targets which have the potential for both Cactus style tourmaline breccia hosted deposits plus intrusive related deposits which could be sources of the copper-gold mineralisation in the district (see Figure 1). None of the targets have been tested by past drilling.

The targets all have either resistivity, chargeability and/or magnetic geophysical anomalies which are supported by anomalous copper in soil sampling. They are also typically associated with structures intepreted from the magnetics and geological mapping.
==> picture [489 x 494] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 1: Hawk’s drilling targets on a base of copper soil geochemistry. The Cactus, Copperopolis and CZ-1 targets are the highest priority due to the large scale of the geophysical anomalies. The estimated background copper grade in soils is 60ppm and assays range up to 0.9% Cu at the Cactus mine.

A brief description of each target is outlined below. For context background levels across the project area include 60ppm Cu in soils, 5mV chargeability and 500Ωm resistivity.
Cactus Target
The Cactus mine was the major producer in the Cactus mining district with reported production between 1905 and 1920 of 1.3Mt of ore grading 2.07% copper, 0.33g/t gold and 7.36g/t silver. The Cactus chalcopyrite and chalcocite mineralisation is hosted by tourmaline breccia. It has associated magnetic and resistivity low anomalies, occurs at the intersection of NW and NNW trending structures and has highly anomalous copper and gold in soils with grades up to 0.9% Cu and 1.24g/t Au.
Hawk’s exploration has highlighted that a resistivity low anomaly associated with the Cactus mineralisation extends for approximately 400m northeast beyond past drilling. The Wasp anomaly is a second significantly larger discrete resitivity low approximately 700m northeast of the Cactus mine.
Hawk’s has planned two holes to test the extension of the resistivity anomaly associated with the Cactus mine mineralisation plus a hole to test the Wasp anomaly.
Copperopolis Target
Copperopolis is highlighted by a +60mV chargeability anomaly made up of three distinct high zones which become larger and more intense at depth, copper in soil grades up to 1,000ppm and a 1974 diamond hole which intersected 30m grading 0.2% Cu on the margin of the chargeability anomaly (see Figure 2).
Copperopolis is potentially an intrusive source of primary copper mineralisation throughout the Cactus district and based on the chargeability and soil results, Hawk’s exploration target is 300-350Mt @ 0.5-1.0% Cu. Hawk has two holes planned to test the two shallower chargeability anomalies.
CZ-1 Target
CZ-1 is strongly analogous to the Cactus target and consists of two resistivity low anomalies, the most intense magnetic low anomaly in the project area, a structural

31 October 2025
==> picture [142 x 89] intentionally omitted <==
intersection and anomalous soils grading up to 332ppm Cu. The structures coincident with the resistivity anomalies trend towards the Cactus mine 500m to the northwest.
Hawk has two holes planned which will test both resistivity lows. Based on the scale of the resistivity anomalies, Hawk’s exploration target is 300-350Mt @ 0.5-1.0% Cu.
==> picture [455 x 287] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 2 : Copperopolis planned drill holes on a section showing the chargeability geophysical anomalies supported by soils grading up to 1,000ppm copper and a 1974 drill intersection of 30m @ 0.2% Cu off the edge of the chargeability anomaly.
New Years West (NYW) and N-1 Targets
The NYW and N-1 targets are coincident structure controlled magnetic low, chargeability high and copper soil anomalies.
N-1 has a chargeability anomaly and copper rich soils grading up to 875ppm over an 800m x 400m area. The target lies at the intersection of a north-south trending structure and an east-west trending structure which trends through NYW and into the New Years prospect. Three holes are planned to test the target.
==> picture [586 x 67] intentionally omitted <==
ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
31 October 2025
==> picture [142 x 89] intentionally omitted <==
NYW lies immediately to the west of the New Years prospect and is associated with magnetic and chargeability low anomalies along an east-west trending structure that trends into N-1. The target is interpreted to be the potential sulphide rich down plunge extension of New Years mineralisation which was drilled by Hawk in 2024 with intersections of 26m @ 1.3% Cu from surface and 30m @ 0.78% Cu from 10m downhole (see Figure 3).[2] Three holes are planned to test the target.

Cactus Soils Arsenic, Silver and Antimony pXRF Assay Review
A review of Cactus soils pXRF arsenic, silver and antimony assays as pathfinders for potential gold mineralisation highlighted three anomalous arsenic zones (See Figure 4).[3] Antimony and silver pXRF assays were viewed as unreliable due to low and highly variable grades close to the analyser’s detection limit. The background arsenic grade for the overall soil grid is approximately 6ppm. The three zones are:
- a prominent +10ppm arsenic zone extending 1.5km west from Cactus to the western end of the soil grid with arsenic assays up to 168ppm at the Cactus mine. The anomaly coincides with an east-west arcuate structure extending from New Years interpreted from magnetics.

-
a second east-west trending anomalous arsenic zone at the northern end of the grid with grades ranging up to 26ppm.
-
a zone trending northwest from the southeastern corner of the grid defined by the +15ppm arsenic contour with grades up to 50ppm. It coincides with an interpreted structure which trends northwest to the CZ-1 drill target.
The two east-west trending anomalies coincide with interpreted landslip scree and it is unknown if high arsenic is a characteristic of the scree or whether it is due to underlying mineralisation masked by the landslip material.

Olympus Scandium Project Acquisition[4]
The strategic rationale for the Olympus acquisition includes:
-
Large surface footprint : coherent +500ppm Sc signature over ~7 km × 4 km, with multiple +1,000 ppm Sc zones and supportive shallow RAB results.
-
Undervalued dataset : historical programs did not target scandium; Hawk can rerun the data the right way with modern QA/QC and targeted verification.
-
Strategic commodity : scandium is a high value critical metal that strengthens aluminium alloys for auto, aerospace, defence and energy applications.
Olympus Background[5]
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.
The scandium in soil and lag anomaly grades greater than 500ppm Sc and occurs over a 7km x 4km surface area. Within this there are five separate zones grading +1,000ppm Sc with a peak grade of 1,284ppm Sc (see Figure 5). 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

Figure 5: Olympus past exploration soil sampling and RAB drilling highlighting a 4km x 7km scandium pXRF soil anomaly which grades >500ppm Sc.
Followup of anomalous target commodities 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 5). As scandium was not a targeted commodity the RAB lines were not located within the 7km x 4km soil anomaly however Lines A-B and E-F were drilled in anomalous scandium zones.
All four RAB lines intersected highly anomalous near surface scandium over 800m wide zones. All pXRF analysed holes contained anomalous scandium with intersections
