Medallion and IGO enter into exclusive negotiations on Forrestania

Key Points:

  • Medallion Metals Limited (Medallion) and IGO Limited (IGO) have entered into an exclusivity agreement regarding negotiating a potential transaction whereby Medallion acquires certain assets of the Forrestania Nickel Operation (FNO), specifically the Cosmic Boy Process Plant and associated infrastructure following completion of nickel processing by IGO at FNO

  • A unique opportunity to unlock significant value by utilising FNO’s existing infrastructure to process the established Mineral Resources at RGP, whilst enhancing RGP’s environmental credentials

  • Significant potential to accelerate commercial production from RGP whilst reducing capital, minimising operational risk and simplifying permitting

  • Consideration proposed to comprise upfront cash to a maximum of $15 million, the assumption of rehabilitation liabilities and deferred cash consideration (if any). Total consideration to be capped at $50 million.

  • Medallion’s exclusivity extends for a period of 9 months with the ability to extend for up to a further 3 months

  • Medallion and IGO to separately negotiate acquisition of gold and silver rights across the broader FNO tenure on a non-exclusive basis

  • Medallion to commence infill drilling, test work and studies considering development of the highgrade sulphide Mineral Resources at RGP and incorporating an options analysis assessing standalone processing at RGP versus trucking to the Cosmic Boy plant

  • RGP Mineral Resources reported in fresh rock and above a 2 g/t AuEq cut-off grade total 5.6Mt @ 4.3 g/t Au & 0.6 % Cu for 770 koz Au and 36 kt Cu contained metal and are considered available for potential underground mining

  • Opens up significant strategic growth opportunities through reinvigorating the gold potential of FNO and surrounds

Managing Director, Paul Bennett, commented:

“This is a transformational opportunity for Medallion. Bringing the established high-grade gold-copper resources at Ravensthorpe together with the Forrestania infrastructure has the potential to unlock significant value in a short space of time. Additionally, establishing gold processing capability at Forrestania creates an opportunity to commercialise stranded deposits in the region as well as reinvigorate gold exploration across the highly prospective Forrestania greenstone belt. We welcome the opportunity to partner with IGO to seek to create a new gold business at Forrestania while allowing IGO to continue to pursue its corporate objectives in the region.”

Medallion & IGO enter into Exclusivity Agreement

Medallion is pleased to announce that it has entered into an Exclusivity Agreement with IGO that grants Medallion a period of exclusivity in which to negotiate a proposed acquisition of certain assets of the Forrestania Nickel Operation (FNO) following completion of nickel processing by IGO at FNO. The exclusivity period is 9 months, with the ability to extend for up to a further 3 months (Exclusivity Period). An exclusivity fee of $1 million in cash is payable to IGO within 5 business days of executing the Exclusivity Agreement, which will be deducted from any deferred cash consideration if a transaction proceeds. The exclusivity fee is non-refundable except in the case of a breach by IGO of its exclusivity obligations.

Medallion regards the proposed transaction as an unique and attractive opportunity and believes there can be significant value unlocked from bringing FNO’s infrastructure together with Medallion’s established resources at its 100% owned Ravensthorpe Gold Project (RGP), situated 160km south of FNO by a predominantly bitumen sealed road.

FNO assets proposed to be acquired by Medallion include mineral tenure (being the Cosmic Boy Tenements shown in Figure 3) and infrastructure associated with the Cosmic Boy processing facility and associated infrastructure, subject to IGO preserving priority rights for its own activities at Forrestania.

Consideration proposed to comprise upfront cash consideration up to a maximum of $15 million, the assumption of rehabilitation liabilities and deferred cash consideration (if any). Total cash and liability assumption consideration to be not more than $50 million.

The proposed terms of the potential transaction are non-binding and subject to negotiation and formal agreement between the parties.

Medallion and IGO will also negotiate on a non-exclusive basis the grant of gold and silver rights across the FNO tenement package (being the Forrestania Tenements shown in Figure 3), subject to the existence of any pre-existing third-party rights.

Transaction Rationale

Bringing RGP ore together with FNO provides a unique opportunity for all stakeholders to materially extend operations at FNO following the natural conclusion of nickel production at the site.

The RGP Mineral Resource, when reported in fresh rock and above a lower cut-off grade (COG) of 2g/t AuEq, yields 5.6Mt @ 4.3g/t Au and 0.6% Cu (772koz Au and 36kt Cu contained) and is considered potentially available for underground mining[1] . With modification parameters from the October 2023 PFS[2] applied, Medallion believes a substantial underground mine plan will coalesce with grades that will sustain trucking to the Cosmic Boy processing plant located at FNO.

In addition to RGP, multiple strategic growth opportunities present themselves through the establishment of gold processing capability at FNO. The Forrestania greenstone belt is a historically significant gold producing region, which includes the Bounty Gold Mine (historical production approximately 1.4Moz at 5.1 g/t gold) and remains highly prospective for gold with multiple deposits and prospects situated within economic trucking distance of Cosmic Boy.

Additionally, Medallion holds 100% of the Jerdacuttup Project (Jerdacuttup), located approximately 10km to the south of RGP. Jerdacuttup is host to the Trilogy Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 5.6Mt containing 0.17Moz Au, 9.8Moz Ag, 67Kt Cu, 134Kt Pb and 78Kt Zn, contained within granted mining leases[3] . Some or all of Trilogy may be a candidate for processing at the Cosmic Boy flotation plant. Further work will be required however the regional opportunities at both FNO, RGP and Jerdacuttup have the potential to significantly enhance the merits of the proposed Transaction over the longer term.

Sulphide Mineral Resources

RGP Mineral Resources reported in fresh rock and above a lower cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t AuEq are shown in Table 1. All Mineral Resources reported are contained within the Kundip Mining Centre (KMC) granted mining leases.

The preceding statement of Mineral Resources by classification (Table 1) conforms to the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves, 2012 Edition (JORC Code). All tonnages are dry metric tonnes. Minor discrepancies may occur due to rounding to appropriate significant figures.

Figure 2: Isometric view (looking down and to the North-East) of the RGP MRE fresh component above 2.0 g/t AuEq COG (Blue = Indicated, Grey = Inferred, Red = historical workings, Yellow = PFS underground mining voids).

The RGP MRE fresh component is reported under conditions where the Company believes there are reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction through standard underground mining methods and the recovery of economic elements (gold, copper and silver) to saleable products through the application of industry standard process routes (gravity, flotation and cyanidation).

Mineral Resources have been reported above a cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t AuEq assuming full extraction by underground mining methods. Areas of historical mining have been depleted from the resource models (Figure 2).

Costs determined from the 2023 PFS were used to set the cut-off grade. The PFS considered underground mining by top-down sub level benching, with processing of mined ore on-site at KMC, in addition to placement of tailings and waste rock. The underground cut-off accounts for metallurgical recovery and includes costs associated with underground capital development, ore mining, processing, general and administration and royalties.

Gold equivalent (AuEq) grades that have been applied as cut-off criteria and used for reporting the resource were calculated using the following formula: AuEq g/t = Au g/t + (Cu % × 1.61) + (Ag g/t × 0.01). Refer to Annexure 3 (JORC Tables) for further information relating to the calculation of AuEq grades.

Sulphide Development Scenario

The sulphide development scenario isolates the highest value subset of the global RGP MRE (outlined in Annexure 2) While the overall inventory of metal available for consideration in any potential mine plan reduces from that outlined in the PFS, the residual fresh inventory of 770 koz of gold and 36 kt of copper is substantial.

Under this scenario, mining and processing will be simplified by employing a single mining method to extract ore made up of a single metallurgical domain. Deposit grade and geometric variability is low. The majority of historical metallurgical testwork has been carried out on fresh samples which is the most well understood and lowest risk metallurgical domain. By focussing on the sulphide material, the requirement to manage secondary copper minerals during cyanidisation of flotation tails is removed completely or becomes insignificant.

An underground development scenario will substantially reduce the disturbance footprint of the Project, removing open pit mines and significantly reducing waste dump and tailings storage facility sizes. This development scenario can easily be situated within the approved development envelope of Ministerial Statement 1143, the conditional approval for development of KMC under the Environmental Protection Act (WA) granted in June 2020.

Importantly, a sulphide development scenario does not impede future mining of oxide and transitional resources or below underground cut-off grade sulphide material, providing a low capital mine life extension opportunity. Oxide, transitional and lower grade sulphide material are all still capable of treatment via the same processing route (gravity, flotation and cyanidation) as contemplated in the PFS.

Additionally, the expected high value of the mined ore from KMC will sustain trucking costs over significant distances. Subject to the completion of the Transaction, the opportunity to leverage off established processing infrastructure at FNO is likely to further reduce up-front capital and enhance Project returns (Figure 2).

During the Exclusivity Period, Medallion will undertake an options analysis as part of its due diligence assessing the development of a stand-alone mining and processing operation at KMC versus mining sulphide ore from KMC and trucking it to FNO for processing through a modified Cosmic Boy processing facility.

The KMC PFS released in October 2023 modelled underground production rates peaking at 50kt per month at an average head grade of 3.5 g/t Au and 0.6 % Cu. Overall metallurgical recoveries for fresh, high copper (>0.3% Cu) were modelled as 98% for Au and 88% for Cu. The options analysis will target a production rate of approximately 80-85kozpa on a gold equivalent basis.

Next Steps

During the Exclusivity Period, Medallion intends to complete due diligence on the FNO assets in conjunction with advancing legally binding transaction documentation.

Additionally, work on an “Addendum” to the PFS that considers the sulphide-only development scenario and options analysis will be completed. The significant bank of recent study work will ensure this analysis has minimal cost and can be completed rapidly.

The Company intends to mobilise a drill rig to RGP in the first week of September (weather permitting) to commence approximately 15,000m of drilling, principally in-fill drilling at KMC with minor amounts of drilling allocated to extensional targets within KMC, collection of metallurgical test work samples and priority regional targets previously announced by the Company.

Medallion expects to appoint new additions to the senior management team to progress studies, permitting and prepare in advance for a requirement to assume control of the FNO assets that are the subject of the proposed transaction. The second half of calendar 2024 is expected to have strong news flow as drill results begin to be reported and the Exclusivity Period advances.

REPORTING OF GOLD EQUIVALENT GRADES

Gold Equivalent (AuEq) grades that are applied as cut-off criteria and reported for the resource were calculated using the following formula: AuEq g/t = Au g/t + (Cu % × 1.61) + (Ag g/t × 0.01). Cu equivalence to Au was determined using the following formula: 1.61 = (Cu price x 1% per tonne x Cu recovery) / (Au price x 1 gram per tonne x Au recovery). Ag equivalence to Au was determined using the following formula: 0.01 = (Ag price x 1 gram per tonne x Ag recovery) / (Au price x 1 gram per tonne x Au recovery). Metal prices applied in the calculation were: Au = 2,946 AUD per ounce, Cu = 16,768 AUD per tonne, Ag = 42 AUD per ounce. Metallurgical recoveries applied were: Au = 94.6%, Cu = 86.1%, Ag = 73.3%.

ANNEXURE 3: Ravensthorpe Gold Project JORC Table 1

Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data (Criteria in this section applies to all Kundip Mining Centre deposits).

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sampling techniques Nature and quality of sampling (e.g., 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
(e.g., ‘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
(e.g.,
submarine
nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed
information.

All drilling and sampling undertaken by Medallion Metals Ltd (“Medallion” or “the Company”) was either Reverse
Circulation (RC) or Diamond (DD).

Drilling was carried out under Medallion supervision with RC drilling completed by Precision Exploration Drilling
(PXD) and diamond drilling by PXD and West Core Drilling.

Reverse Circulation (RC) samples outside of mineralised zones were collected by spear from 1m “green bag”
samples from the drill rig cyclone and composited over 4m intervals. Sample weights range from 1-3kg.

RC samples within mineralised intervals as determined by a geologist were sampled on a 1m basis with samples
collected from a cone splitter mounted on the drill rig cyclone. 1m sample masses after splitting typically range from
2.5-3.5kg.

Diamond Drill holes (DD) at Kundip were completed by Medallion Metals which followed protocols and QAQC
procedures as per industry best practice.

Core samples were collected with a diamond rig drilling HQ3 (61mm) from surface within weathered and saprolite
material before casing off within hard rock and completing the hole with NQ2 (51mm) diameter core.

All DD have been reconstructed and orientated, logged geologically, and marked up for assay at a minimum sample
interval of 0.3m to ensure adequate sample weight and a maximum sample interval of 1m, constrained by geological
boundaries.

All DD core is stored in industry standard core trays and racks and is labelled with the drill hole ID and core intervals.

The independent laboratory pulverises the entire whole core sample for analysis as described below.

Industry prepared independent standards (CRMs) are inserted at a rate of approximately 1 in 20 samples.

Duplicate RC samples are collected from the drill rig cyclone, primarily within mineralised zones equating to a 1:33
ratio.

The independent laboratory then takes the samples which are dried, split, crushed, and pulverised prior to analysis
as described below.

Sample sizes are considered appropriate for the material sampled.

The samples are considered representative and appropriate for this type of drilling.

RC and DD core samples are appropriate for use in a resource estimate.
Pre-Medallion Drilling

The Competent Person is satisfied that historical RC and DD drilling used in the Mineral Resource Estimate is
appropriate for use in a JORC 2012 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate.

For additional information, refer to the Company’s Prospectus released on the ASX on 18 March 2021 for details
relating to the drillhole database that supports the current KMC MREs.
NOTE: Not all historical drilling completed has been used in resource estimations due to a lack of confidence in some
data.

Medallion completed 53,392.55m from 295 RC and DD drill holes at RGP throughout 2021 and 2022 since listing on
the ASX in March 2021. Of that total, 48,204.51m was carried out at KMC (33,171.4mm of RC and 15,033.11m of
DD) with the remainder completed at the Company’s regional targets.

RC holes were drilled by Precision Exploration Drilling (PXD) with a 5 1/2-inch bit and face sampling hammer.
Downhole surveys were completed with surveyed downhole by Downhole Surveys’ DeviGyro continuous Rate Gyro
tool

DD drilled in 2021 were carried out by PXD using HQ3 (61mm) diameter in weathered, broken ground before casing
off and drilling NQ2 (51mm) to end of hole. Downhole surveys by Downhole Surveys’ DeviGyro continuous Rate
Gyro tool. Diamond core was orientated by the drill contractor using the Boart Longyear TRUORE™ UPIX Orientation

Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the
grain size of the material being sampled.

RC sampling was carried out every 1m using a rig-mounted a cone splitter.

Within mineralised zones, 1m calico samples directly from the cyclone were submitted for analysis.

In barren zones spear samples were collected for 2-4m composites from the un-split portion of the sample using a
50mm PVC spear. On rare occasions when samples were wet, the sample was collected by grab sampling by the
site geologist. All drilling and sampling were completed under geological supervision.

DD core samples were collected with a diamond drill rig drilling NQ2 or HQ3 core. Core was processed for metre
marks and orientation lines before logging and photographing. The core was cut within a Discoverer® Automatic
Core Cutting Facility using a Corewise Auto Core Saw.

DD core was cut in half, with one half sent to the laboratory for assay and the other half retained.

Holes were sampled over mineralised intervals to geological boundaries on a nominal 1m basis with a minimum of
0.3m and maximum of 1m. Samples were consistently sampled from the same side of the tray once cut.

The ‘un-sampled’ half of diamond core is retained for check sampling if required.

Field QAQC procedures involve the use of certified reference material (CRM) including standards, blanks and
duplicates inserted approximately 1 in 20 samples.

Each sample was dried, split, crushed, and pulverised.

Samples >3kg were sub split to a size that can be effectively pulverized.

For all samples, the entire sample is crushed to nominal <10mm, and rotary split ~3kg sample is pulverised to 75μm
(90% passing). The bulk pulverized sample is then bagged and approximately 200g extracted by spatula to a
numbered paper bag that is used for the 50g fire assay charge. 9 samples submitted in 2021/2022 were reduced to
a 10g fire assay charge due to high sulphur content.

Pulp duplicates and repeats are taken at the pulverising stage at the laboratory’s discretion for their internal QAQC.

Sample sizes are considered appropriate for the style of mineralisation (massive and disseminated sulphides-quartz
veins), the thickness and consistency of the intersections, the sampling methodology and percent value assay ranges
for the primary elements at Kundip.

RC and DD samples are appropriate for use in a Mineral Resource Estimate.

Drill hole spacings on deposits with a Mineral Resource estimate (MRE) vary between each deposit at Kundip.
Generally, a nominal 20m-40m spacing along trend of the orebodies and 20m-40m collar separation on section is
the norm. Extensional drill holes situated on the periphery of the Gem and Harbour View deposits are ~ 80m x 80m
step outs.

Drill spacing is considered adequate for Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation in the Indicated and Inferred
category.

No sample compositing has been applied except in the reporting of drill intercepts, as described in this table.

Whether the orientation of sampling
achieves unbiased sampling of possible
structures and the extent to which this is
known, considering the deposit type.
If the relationship between the drilling
orientation and the orientation of key
mineralised structures is considered to have
introduced a sampling bias, this should be
assessed and reported if material.

The spacing and location of drilling is variable across the deposits of KMC, ranging between 20m to 80m.

The majority of drilling was orientated at -60° and ranged between -53° and -90°.

The orientation of drilling over the resource areas is approximately perpendicular to the strike and dip of the
mineralisation where known.

Sampling is therefore considered representative of the mineralised zones.

The chance of bias introduced by sample orientation is considered minimal.
Pre-Medallion drilling

The Competent Person considers that the orientation of historical RC and DD drilling where applied in this MRE is
appropriatefor Mineral Resource estimates.
Sample security The measures taken to ensure sample
security.

Medallion has strict chain of custody procedures that are adhered to.

All samples are sealed in calico bags, which are in turn placed in large plastic bags for transport. Filled bags are
secured on wooden pallets and transported directly via road freight to the laboratory with a corresponding submission
form and consignment note. The submission form is additionally e-mailed to the laboratory.

The laboratory checks the samples received against the submission form and notifies the Company of any missing
or additional samples. Once the laboratoryhas completed the assaying,thepulp packets, pulpresidues and coarse

rejects are held in their secure warehouse. On request, the pulp packets are returned to the site warehouse on
secure pallets where they are stored.

Measures taken to ensure sample security during pre-Medallion drilling are unknown.

All retained core, RC chip trays and pulp samples are currently stored at the RGP and are available for verification if
required.
Audits or reviews The results of any audits or reviews of
sampling techniques and data.

No external audits or reviews of the drill database have been undertaken.

Historical exploration, underground and open pit mining was carried out at Kundip by various parties between 1901
and the 1990s.

Total production from KMC is reported as 127,000t of ore grading 18.2 g/t gold and containing 74,000 ounces of
gold (Younger 1985, Read 1987, ACH Minerals Pty Ltd 2020).

Refer to the Company’s Prospectus announced on the ASX on 18 March 2021 for further details regarding the
historical drillingundertaken at KMC moregenerally.
Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.

KMC is situated in the southeast of the Archaean Ravensthorpe Greenstone Belt at the junction of the South-West
Terrane and Youanmi Terrane of the Yilgarn Craton. Proterozoic sediments of the Albany-Fraser Orogen
unconformably overlie the Archaean to the south including at the Flag deposit.

Geology at KMC hosting gold-copper mineralisation is the Annabelle Volcanics which consist of a thick package of
basaltic to dacitic volcaniclastics and lavas intruded by a series of south dipping tonalitic, dolerite and microdiorite
dykes.

Primary mineralisation is structurally hosted sulphide-quartz veins that cut primary stratigraphy and occur within two
main styles.
o
North striking, steeply dipping, shear zones hosting the Harbour View (NNE), Gift North and Gem
Restored (NNW) deposits. The shears are host to major veins that are commonly laminated and
brecciated with parallel vein sets common in the wide shears. At Harbour View, the shear contains wide
zones of copper mineralisation.
o
East striking extension veins (Gem, May, Flag and Omaha) are characterised by parallel arrays and can
display short continuity. Veins display sharp margins, massive internal texture and with low grade, wide,
gold haloes common at Gem.

Grades are reported as down-hole length weighted averages.

Headline composite grades have been reported to a minimum cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t Au and maximum internal

No top-cuts have been applied in the reporting of assay results.

In establishing the 0.5 AuEq ppm cut-off for generating significant intercepts for reporting, the Gold Equivalent
(AuEq) grades are calculated using the following formula: AuEq g/t = Au g/t + (Cu % × 1.61) + (Ag g/t × 0.01). Cu
equivalence to Au was determined using the following formula: 1.61 = (Cu price x 1% per tonne x Cu recovery) /
(Au price x 1 gram per tonne x Au recovery). Ag equivalence to Au was determined using the following formula:
0.01 = (Ag price x 1 gram per tonne x Ag recovery) / (Au price x 1 gram per tonne x Au recovery). Metal prices
applied in the calculation were: Au = 2,946 AUD per ounce, Cu = 16,768 AUD per tonne, Ag = 42 AUD per ounce.
Metallurgical recoveries applied were: Au = 94.6%, Cu = 86.1%, Ag = 73.3%. Refer to the Company’s ASX
announcement dated28March 2022 for further information relating tometallurgical recovery.
Relationship
between
mineralisation 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 drillhole 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 (e.g., ‘down hole
length, true width not known’).

The mineralisation within diamond drill holes is interpreted to be approximately perpendicular to the strike of
mineralisation.

Drilling into the May lodes is oblique as drill holes were targeting the Harbour View lodes.

All mineralised intervals reported are approximate, but are not true width, as drilling is not always perpendicular to
the strike/dip of mineralisation.

If true widths are reported, they are estimates. Confirmation of true widths will only be possible when all results are
received, and final geological interpretations have been completed.

Geological data is stored centrally within a relational SQL database, MaxGeo’s Datashed 5. MaxGeo acts as
Medallion’s database administrator. DataShed software has validation procedures that include constraints, library
tables, triggers, and stored procedures. Data that does not pass validation tests must be corrected before upload.
All database updates and edits are requested in consultation with Medallion Senior Geologists.

Geological data is collected with Logchief software and uploaded digitally. The software utilises lookup tables, fixed
formatting, and validation routines to ensure data integrity prior to upload to the central database.

Medallion utilises the QAQC Dashboard within Datashed 5 software to analyse QAQC data, and batches which do
not meet passing criteria are requested to be re‐assayed. Sample grades are checked visually in three dimensions
against the logged geology and geological interpretation. Drill hole collar pickups are checked against planned and/or
actual collar locations.

The Mineral Resource estimate includes both Medallion and pre-Medallion reverse circulation and diamond hole
assay data.

Data validation processes are in place and run upon import into the database to be used for the MRE in Datamine

Overall, there is confidence at a global (domain-level) scale of the interpretations, with the expectation that they will
continue to be refined following the collection of additional data.

Interpretations for Flag, Gem, Harbour View, Gem Restored and Gift have been completed in 3D using Leapfrog
software. All available data has been used to help build the geological interpretation, with the integration of geological
logging, structural measurements and drill hole assay data. Geological logging (lithology, alteration and mineralogy)
and assays (gold, silver, and copper) from RC and diamond drilling data were used to inform the interpretations.

the other analytical and logging data. At Flag, underground face samples were available and were utilised in the
interpretations.

The interpretations are consistent with the known geology and a structural investigation executed by Lithify Pty Ltd.

RC and diamond drilling assays only were used in the estimates for Gem, Gem Restored and Harbour View. At Flag,
RC, diamond drilling and face samples were used in the estimate. At Gift, RC and AC drilling assays were used.

The data is considered to be robust due to effective database management, and validation checks to verify the quality
of the data. Original data and survey records are utilised to validate any noted issues.

Diamond drill holes have provided detailed information to assist in the development of the geological and
mineralisation interpretation. The confidence in type, thickness and location of host lithologies and mineralised
structures in the deposit area is good.

Underground mapping at Flag and Gem (Beryl and Hillsborough prospects) from Norseman Gold Pty Ltd from 1986-
1989, has provided localised 3D detailed information to confirm structural and mineralisation orientations.

The continuity of both grade and geology are most likely to be affected by structural controls and local complexity; a
number of cross cutting faults have been identified to offset mineralised lodes and limit the strike extent of
mineralisation.

The Gem estimate used OK grade estimation of top-cut 1.0m length composites. The zone interpretations defined
consistent zones of mineralised material as defined by logged geology and/or assay data. The drill density is at a sufficient
spacing that OK is considered appropriate to inform a local estimate.

All samples were assayed for gold, but silver and copper were not consistently available. Only recent drilling had the
full suite of assay data.

The relatively low coefficients of variation (CVs) and skewness for the individual domains supported the use of
ordinary kriging for grade estimation. The grade distributions for all variables were assessed for the need for top-
cutting to restrict the local impact of a limited number of outlier grades.

One metre downhole composite gold, copper, and silver grade data were interpolated into parent blocks using

MM8 had the full suite of assay data.

The relatively low coefficients of variation (CVs) and skewness for the individual domains supported the use of OK
for grade estimation. The grade distributions for all variables were assessed for the need for top-cutting to restrict
the local impact of a limited number of outlier grades.
A previous, in-house, Inverse Distance estimate was referred to check the results of the OK estimate. Material differences
between the results of the different estimation methodologies were not noted.
Block model and estimation parameters:

One metre downhole composite gold, copper, cobalt and silver grade data were interpolated into parent blocks using
ordinary kriging.

Treatment of extreme grade values – Top‐cuts were applied to 1 m composites selected within mineralisation
wireframes. The top‐cut level was determined through the analysis of histograms, log histograms, log probability
plots and spatial analysis. Top cuts applied to gold ranged from 15 g/t to 25 g/t, for silver at 50 g/t, copper at 2500
ppm and cobalt at 50ppm.

Criteria Commentary

Estimation technique for all mineralised domains – Ordinary Kriging‐considered the most appropriate method with
respect to the observed continuity of mineralisation, spatial analysis (variography) and dimensions of the domains
defined by drilling.

Kriging Neighbourhood Analysis was undertaken to optimise the search neighbourhood used for the estimation and
to test the parent block size. The search ellipse and selected samples by block were viewed in three dimensions to
verify the parameters.

Model rotation – no model rotation.

Parent block size for estimation of gold grades by OK‐10 mX by 20 mY by 10 mZ (parent cell estimation with full
subset of points).

Smallest sub‐cell – 1 mX by 1 mY by 1 mZ.

Parent cell discretisation‐3 X by 5 Y by 2 Z (using the number of points method).

Search ellipse – aligned to subtle changes in the mineralisation trend using dynamic anisotropy, dimensions; 250
mX by 280 mY by 30 mZ (plane of mineralisation).

Number of samples:
o
maximum per drill hole = 6, first search 12 min / 30 max, second search 10 min / 30 max and a volume
factor of 2, third search 3 min / 30 max with a volume factor of 4.

Maximum distance of extrapolation from data points – 40 m from sample data to Inferred boundary.
Domain boundary conditions – Hard boundaries are applied at all domain boundaries. Hard boundary application is
confirmed by geology and by contact analysis.
One metre downhole composite gold, copper, silver and cobalt grade data were interpolated into parent cells using
Ordinary Kriging (OK).
Block model validation was undertaken globally by comparing the mean OK block grade estimates to the declustered and
top-cut mean of the informing composite grades on a fault block grouped domain by domain basis. Local validation, via
swath plots, was also carried out for key domains.
An assumed correlation between gold, copper and silver is made through a single domain being utilised for the estimation
of all elements.
The following validation checks were performed:

Comparison of the volume of wireframe vs the volume of block model.

Checks on the sum of gram metres prior to compositing vs the sum of gram metres post compositing

A negative gold, copper, silver and cobalt estimated grade check

Comparison of the model average grade and the declustered sample grade by Domain.

Generation of swath plots by Domain, northing and elevation.

Visual checks of drill data vs model data inplan,section and three dimensions.

Comparison to previous unreleased models.
All validation checks gave appropriate results and confirmed the validity of the estimation. There has been no
reconciliation comparison with historic mining. Historical production for the combined Gem Restored line of workings
totalled 15,500 imperial tons of mineralised material grading at 16.7 g/t Au for 8,340 ounces gold, principally extracted
between 1907 and 1913,with the last recordedproduction in 1947(Western Australia Department of Mines,1954).
Moisture Whether the tonnages are estimated on a
dry basis or with natural moisture, and the
method of determination of the moisture
content.

Moisture was not considered in the density assignment (dry densities used). Bulk density values used are a
combination of local and regional data.
Cut-off parameters The basis of the adopted cut-off grade(s) or

RGP Total: Resources available for open pit mining are reported above a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t AuEq. Underground
resources are reported above a cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t AuEq.

RGP Fresh Component: Resources available for underground mining are reported above a cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t
AuEq.

Costs determined from the 2023 Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) were used to set cut-off grades. The FS considered
conventional open and underground mining methodologies with processing of mined ore on-site at KMC using
industry standard process routes as well as tailings and waste rock disposal.

The open pit cut-off accounts for metallurgical recovery and covers the cost associated with ore mining, processing,
general and administration (G&A) and royalties. The underground cut-off accounts for metallurgical recovery, ore
mining, processing, G&A and royalties in addition to underground capital development.

The AuEq cut-off grades have been calculated for all lithologies which contain potentially economic quantities of
gold, copper and silver.

The AuEq calculation is based on the following price assumptions in Australian dollars;
o
Gold, $2,946/oz
o
Copper, $16,678/t
o
Silver, $42/oz

The AuEq calculation is based on the following overall metallurgical recoveries;
o
Gold, 94.6%
o
Copper, 86.1%
o
Silver, 73.3%

It is always necessary as part of the process
of determining reasonable prospects for

the potential environmental impacts of the
mining and processing operation. While at
this stage the determination of potential
environmental impacts, particularly for a
greenfields project, may not always be well
advanced, the status of early consideration

KMC tenements are located in an environmentally sensitive area. This sensitivity arises due to the presence of
Threatened Ecological Communities and Priority Ecological Communities, both floral and faunal. It is noted that KMC
tenements which host the MRE have been extensively worked for over a century and are heavily degraded over
extensive areas in the MRE footprint.

The Company referred a proposed development scenario for KMC to the Environmental Protection Authority of
Western Australia (EPA) and 27 May 2020. The referral considered processing of mined ore on-site at KMC in
addition to disposal of mine waste and tailings within the footprint of the granted mining leases. The EPA published
its findings from the Environmental Impact Assessment process. The EPA recommended that the proposal may be
implemented subject to certain conditions.

Ministerial Statement 1143 was published on the EPA website on 21 July 2020 confirming the implementation
conditions. The proponent has five years to substantively commence the project approved under the Ministerial
Statement. Should material changes to the scale or scope of KMC occur as a result of altering the basis of the
referral, it may be necessary to seek an amendment to the approval under the EP Act, which may or may not be
forthcoming.

The Company will require additional statutory approvals typical for a gold mine in Western Australia before any
development of KMC can proceed. Key among these are approvals under the Mining Act 1978 (WA) (Mining Proposal
and Mine Closure Plan) and Mine Safety and Inspection Act 1994 (WA) (Project Management Plan). The Company
considers it will accordingly receive these and other necessary approvals, but no assurance can be given that they
will be received, or on conditions that the Companymayaccept.

Specific gravity values for KMC have been measured based on the Archimedean Principle using the immersion
method for individual core samples. A total of 5,289 density measurements were available for use, with the vast
majority of these being in fresh rock. Global data collected in the area have been used as the basis of the block
model bulk density. Dry bulk density factors have been applied to generate resource tonnages.

A clear relationship between weathering and density has been observed. Elevated density has been established for
the two different types of mineralisation observed in the Kundip project area.

A default bulk density of 2.20 t/m3was assigned to completely oxidised material.

A default bulk density of 2.50 t/m3was assigned to significantly oxidised material.

A default bulk density of 2.60 t/m3was assigned to partially oxidised material.

In fresh (volcanic) rock, a default bulk density of 2.70 t/m3was assigned.

In fresh (tonalite) rock, a default bulk density of 2.65 t/m3was assigned.

Mineralised domains described as Breccia lodes are assigned a density of 2.75 t/m3in fresh rock only.

Mineralised domains described asgold and copper lodes are assigned a densityof 2.95 t/m3in fresh rock only.

The low-grade domain mineralisation contributes up to 60% of the Mineral Inventory at Gem due to the high volume
of the low-grade halo material. Two methods of creating the low-grade domains were undertaken in Leapfrog, the
first using vein model interval selection and the second model using an indicator interpolant method constrained by
a structural trend. Both models were estimated and then comprehensively interrogated. The low-grade domain
created using the indicator interpolant was reconciled to observations from mapping in the pit and drill chips as it
represented a broader unconstrained low-grade halo.
