Activities Report

Atlas Development

Atlas is located approximately 170km north of Perth (80km north of Boonanarring) and has Ore Reserves of 5.5Mt at 9.2% heavy minerals (“ HM ”) (see Tables 2 and 3 and ASX: 21 December 2022: Revised Announcement – Atlas Project Ore Reserve Update).

The Company received final approvals required to commence construction at its 100%-owned Atlas Mineral Sands Project (“Atlas”), located approximately 170km north of Perth in the North Perth Basin. Contractors, including the mining contractor, were mobilised to Atlas during August to commence construction of the site entry road and clearance of the project area (see Photo 1).

Construction of the Atlas accommodation camp also commenced in August. The premises and associated facilities were completed on 20 September 2024, facilitating a ramp-up of construction activities and personnel. The camp is now referred to as Nambung Village (see Photo 2).

Dismantling of Boonanarring wet concentration plant (“ WCP ”) and associated equipment was completed in September in preparation for transport to Atlas (see Photo 3).

Atlas is considered the next stage in the Company’s mineral sands project development strategy, following the completion of mining activities and ore processing of all available Ore Reserves at Boonanarring.

Final ore processing at Boonanarring was completed in August 2023 and the final shipment of HMC was completed in November 2023. The Company closed out CY2023 with cash reserves of $46 million, with plans to self-fund the relocation of mining and processing equipment from Boonanarring to Atlas once permitting was finalised.

The permitting process for Atlas commenced in 2021. Despite permitting process delays of more than a year due to constraints on the regulatory department, all construction approvals for Atlas have been received and construction has accelerated.

The Company is expected to commence project commissioning and first HMC production in Q1 2025, followed by first Atlas HMC sale/shipment in March/April 2025.

Permitting Details

On 18 July 2024, Image received notice from the Commonwealth on its proposed conditions on land offset requirements for Atlas under the EPBC Act. On 19 July 2024, the Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (“DEMIRS”) advised the Mining Proposal for Atas has been approved. The proposal covers project construction and operation.

On 6 August 2024, Image received final approval for the Atlas project development from the Commonwealth as required under the EPBC Act, as well as approval of the Offset Environmental Management Plan from the EPA. In addition, on 8 August, Image received approval of the Banksia Woodlands Rehabilitation Environmental Management Plan from the EPA. Receipt of these approvals allowed commencement of construction at Atlas.

Subsequent to quarter’s end, the Company received approval of the groundwater operating strategy and received associated 5C water licenses for mine dewatering and water abstraction for civil construction and processing operations.

Additional Project Details

In December 2022, the Company announced an updated Ore Reserve estimate and key feasibility statistics for Atlas, including:

  • 5.5 million tonnes of Ore Reserves at 9.2% total HM

  • 11.9% zircon, 7.9% rutile, 4.9% leucoxene, 53% Ilmenite and 1.1% monazite in total HM

  • Forecast processing rate of 2.6 million tonnes ore per annum

  • Total HMC production of 446kt

Net project operating cashflow was estimated at $148 million.

Following receipt of long-lead items, including the innovative CT1 mineral separation spirals and flex plant by Mineral Technologies and camp accommodation/facilities, the updated remaining capital spend for Atlas from 1 July 2024 is estimated at A$35 million (including 15% contingency). Subsequent to the quarter, as announced on 24 October 2024, a US$20 million HMC Offtake Prepayment Facility agreement was secured with HMC offtaker Shantou Natfort Zirconium and Titanium Co., Ltd to provide working capital for Atlas.

The Company is committed to the development of Atlas, followed by the development of Yandanooka, with funding for Yandanooka being partly sourced from internally generated cashflows from Atlas, supplemented as necessary with debt and/or equity.

Yandanooka PFS

Yandanooka is located approximately 300km north of Perth in the infrastructure-rich North Perth Basin in Western Australia.

During Q2 2024, the Company completed a PFS for its 100%-owned Yandanooka mineral sands project (see Tables 2 and 3 and ASX: 19 April 2024: Strong Feasibility Results Yandanooka Project ).

Yandanooka has a shorter development timeline than the Company’s other projects, including Bidaminna, McCalls and Mindarra Springs, due to lower-level environmental sensitivities and minimal heritage considerations as it is located on private farmland.

Project economics are based on an initial 8-year mine life at a processing rate of 420 tph rougher head feed. The throughput rate was determined based on the existing Boonanarring WCP capability (using the available spirals and quantities for each spiral stage).

Yandanooka PFS Highlights:

  • Pre-tax NPV8: A$151 million

  • Pre-tax IRR8: 72%

  • Initial Development Capital: A$50.3 million

  • Capital payback (post first revenue): 15 months

  • Project EBITDA: A$277 million

  • Forecast mine-life: 8.2 years

  • Total HMC production: 1.04 Mt

Yandanooka Ore Reserve Estimate Highlights:

  • 30 million tonnes of Probable Ore Reserves at 3.9% total HM

  • Mineralisation from the surface with an average waste-to-ore strip ratio of 0.1:1

  • 90.5% valuable heavy minerals ("VHM") in HM

Level 2, 1 Walker Avenue +61 8 9485 2410 West Perth WA 6085 [email protected] www.imageres.com.au

ASX:IMA I Image Resources NL I ABN 57 063 977 579

ASX: IMA

  • High-value mineral assemblage with 14% zircon, 3.3% rutile, 27% leucoxene, 46% ilmenite, and 0.19% monazite in HM

Based on the positive results of the PFS, it is being upgraded to BFS standard based on the same development methodology as used for the successful Boonanarring project. However, given components of the Boonanarring plant are slated for use at Atlas, the initial Yandanooka development capital in the PFS is expected to increase by approximately $22 million, for replacement equipment, and will be captured in the BFS now expected to be completed Q1 2025 pending finalisation of land access.

Bidaminna BFS

In an effort to conserve cash for the development of Atlas, work on the Bidaminna BFS was temporarily curtailed. Results on the Bidaminna PFS were announced in June 2023 ( ASX: 27 June 2023: PFS Results - Bidaminna Mineral Sands Project) . The PFS was based on inaugural Ore Reserves of 123Mt at 1.8% HM with 4% slimes, 4% oversize, 93% VHM and 85% of the HM as high-quality ilmenite and leucoxene suitable as SR feedstock (refer Table 2). Results of the PFS were positive, with select highlights of pre-tax NPV8 of A$192 million, pre-tax IRR8 of 28%, project EBITDA of A$379 million for a 10.5-year mine life and 3.8-year capital payback period. Project revenue in the Bidaminna PFS was based on producing and using a simple business model of selling an HMC product.

The BFS will be based on a number of optimisation steps as well as an updated Mineral Resources estimate (MRE) which will build on the latest MRE announced in February 2023 (ASX: 28 February 2023: Mineral Resources Update Bidaminna Project) with total Mineral Resources of 109 million tonnes at 2.5% HM.

Value-Adding SR Innovation

Positive test results on upgrading Bidaminna ilmenite to SR have opened the door to the significant valueadding opportunity of upgrading ilmenite from Yandanooka, McCalls and Mindarra Springs. Importantly, the potential for multi-decade operating life from these projects could serve to support justification for capital expenditure for SR production in the event future feasibility studies and proposed demonstration plant operating results are determined to be positive.

The concept study for a potential SR production facility, with a significantly reduced carbon footprint compared to existing SR production technology, continued to progress during the quarter. Post the filing of an initial patent in Q4 2023 on a novel SR production process, further evaluation of the process has resulted in the drafting of a second patent application. A specialist, innovative technology development consultant has also been engaged to conduct an SR production scoping study. Initial work based on first principles, indicates the process is feasible both technically and economically and that the process could add significant economic benefits to Image’s future projects with HMC production.

During Q2 2024, the Company submitted an application for a dollar-for-dollar matching grant through the WA Investment Attraction Fund – New Energies Industries for the construction and operation of an SR production demonstration plant to verify Image’s provisionally patented innovative SR production technology. During Q3 2024, the Company was advised that it has advanced to the next stage of the grants process.

Environmental, Social & Governance (“ESG”)

Environment – Rehabilitation

Image is a significant landholder in the Boonanarring area and recognises its duty and responsibility to rehabilitate mined areas to a high standard and continue to work at improving the local environment outside of the mining lease where possible and practicable to do so.

A total of 85ha has been rehabilitated for the Boonanarring project to-date. There has been no further seeding 2024 due to the need to conserve cash for the development of the Atlas project.

Safety

There were no lost-time injuries (“ LTIs ”) recorded during the current quarter and no LTIs recorded since prior to 1 January 2023.

The Company remains vigilant with respect to COVID and influenza symptoms and maintains adherence to the modifications of its daily work practices and procedures when necessary to minimise potential negative impacts.

Image is committed to the promotion of a positive work, health and safety culture, including safety programs and procedures that encourage job safety analysis and planning as well as active incident reporting for the purpose of continual improvement of the health, safety and well-being of all employees, contractors, visitors and members of the community.

The Company tracks and reports its total recordable incident frequency rate (“ TRIFR ”), reported as the number of recordable incidents per 200k hours of work, to more closely align with actual work hours per year. The 12-month rolling average TRIFR on 30 September 2024 was zero, down from 1.6 as at 30 June 2024.

Community

Image continues to proudly contribute to the local communities in which it operates, including through local employment and support for local community events. Notable programs occurring or ongoing during this quarter include the following:

  • Leasing of Image’s unused land to the Gingin Recreation Group with profits supporting community programs;

  • Periodically providing certain stockpiled clayey materials to a local landowner to assist in demonstration testing to assess carbon sequestration enhancement techniques for local soils;

  • Sponsoring of Happiness Co Foundation in support of mental health within the Image workforce and in local communities and regional areas;

  • Support of various Gingin and Cervantes community groups and local area programmes;

  • Investigation of additional uses for Image landholdings for the potential generation of other renewable energy generation sources, such as the use of wind turbines or small-scale pumped hydro.

Modern Slavery Statement

Image continues to implement initiatives under the Modern Slavery Act. While the Company’s principal suppliers (Tier 1) are largely long-standing Australian-based companies, questionnaires continue to be rolled out to all Tier 1 suppliers to gauge each supplier’s potential to potentially harbour modern slavery practices. Fit-for-purpose software is also being used to help automate questionnaires mailings to Tier 2 and Tier 3 suppliers. This is a challenging area to manage, and results have been mixed. None-the-less, the process is continuing.

Image completed and lodged its 3rd annual Modern Slavery Statement for CY2023 in June 2024.The report can be viewed at https://modernslaveryregister.gov.au/statements/18076/ once published by the Australian Attorney’s General Department on the public register or it can be viewed on Image’s website at www.imageres.com.au/about/governance/ .

ESG & Sustainability Reporting

During Q4 2024, Image finalised its second annual Sustainability Report. The report was published on 11 October 2024 ( ASX: 11 October 2024: Sustainability Report CY2023 ).

Cashflows

Net Cash outflow was A$4.5 million for Q3 2024, including $6.2 million for plant and equipment, mainly Atlas related. Other expenditure during the quarter included A$1.1 million on Boonanarring rehabilitation, $0.7 million on exploration (mostly Yandanooka pre-development related) and $1.7 million on corporate costs. Expenditure during the quarter was partially offset by tax receipts of $4.8 million. Closing cash at 30

Corporate

On 6 September 2024 Image released the Half Yearly Report and Accounts for the six months ended 30 June 2024.

In September, the Company received tax refunds for CY2022 and CY2023 totalling $4.8 million.

The Company also secured a US$20 million HMC Offtake Prepayment Facility agreement with HMC offtaker Shantou Natfort Zirconium and Titanium Co., Ltd to provide working capital for the Atlas Project. The agreement was finalised and signed, subsequent to quarter’s end.

Corporate costs for Q3 2024 included $296,000 of related party transactions (all director salary or fee related).

Exploration

The Company’s exploration portfolio is primarily focused on mineral sands, with the exception of two exploration licences and two prospecting licences, located southeast of Kalgoorlie, which make up the Erayinia Gold Project. (see Table 1 – Tenement Schedule). All tenements are located in Western Australia, and all mineral sands related tenements are located in the North Perth Basin, across a combined area of 1,516 square kilometres.

With the expansion of the Company’s minerals sands portfolio through the strategic acquisitions of the Eneabba Tenements and McCalls Project in CY2022, the North Perth Basin tenements now consist of 23 named project areas, each with identified Mineral Resources as presented in Table 4.

Drilling Programs

No exploration or development drilling was carried out during Q3 2024. The Company has several drilling programs planned, in both green-fields exploration and resource development, but is waiting on access to resources prior to execution. These include 290 holes for approximately 20,000m at the Bidaminna project planned to upgrade all material inside the dredge pond limits to Measured Resource as defined by the JORC Code 2012, exploration drilling west of Yandanooka on the recently granted E70/6549, phase two exploration at the south end of Woolka on E70/4244 and deep target drilling at Erayinia in the Eastern Goldfields.

ASX: IMA

Yandanooka

The exploration team continues to support the rapid development of the Yandanooka project. Validation of the in-situ density algorithm, used in the 2024 MRE, was completed in August. Test work confirmed that the algorithm, which uses HM and Slimes values to calculate a density, correlates very well with the laboratory determined density values for samples taken from across the deposit. This removes the final barrier to upgrading a large portion of the Mineral Resource from Indicated to Measured as defined by the JORC Code 2012. Results from the resource upgrade will be made available in Q4, 2024. (Note, there will be no material change to the overall tonnes or grade of the MRE).

DEMIRS approval for the two high priority drill targets, identified from recent ground magnetic surveys, has been granted. Drilling is planned for Q1, 2025.

Certain statements made during or in connection with this communication, including, without limitation, those concerning the economic outlook for the mining industry, expectations regarding prices, exploration or development costs and other operating results, growth prospects and the outlook of Image’s operations contain or comprise certain forward-looking statements regarding Image’s operations, economic performance and financial condition. Although Image believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct.

Accordingly, results could differ materially from those set out in the forward looking statements as a result of, among other factors, changes in economic and market conditions, success of business and operating initiatives, changes that could result from future acquisitions of new exploration properties, the risks and hazards inherent in the mining business (including industrial accidents, environmental hazards or geologically related conditions), changes in the regulatory environment and other government actions, risks inherent in the ownership, exploration and operation of or investment in mining properties, fluctuations in prices and exchange rates and business and operations risks management, as well as generally those additional factors set forth in our periodic filings with ASX. Image undertakes no obligation to update publicly or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after today’s date or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
