QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES STATEMENT FOR THE PERIOD ENDING 30 JUNE 2023
Highlights:
Pilbara - Tambourah South Project
-
Infinity completed its maiden Lithium drilling program at Tambourah South in late 2022, with a total advance of 1,812 m RC drilling in 21 holes.
-
The reverse circulation (RC) drilling program was designed to test 36 stacked pegmatites that show over 2.6 km combined strike length, where Spodumene and Lepidolite lithium minerals were observed at surface.
-
Recent rock chip sampling of these surface pegmatites confirmed high grade lithium mineralisation up to 3.86% Li2O, 338.5ppm Cs, 174ppm Nb, 3013.5ppm Rb, 233.7ppm Ta.
-
The RC drill hole assay results of 486 samples returned anomalous Lithium, with over 50 assays of 1m RC samples returning between 0.20% Li2O and a maximum of 0.994% Li2O. A further 132 samples (1- 5 m composites) returned grades between 0.10% to 0.21% L12O.
-
Drilling also confirmed the presence of anomalous Caesium (Cs) Tantalum (Ta) and Rubidium (Rb), with up to 2123 ppm Rb, 155.8 ppm Ta and 235.9 ppm Cs.
-
An Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey was also completed at Tambourah South and interpretation of the data is underway.
Pilbara - Hillside Project
-
UTS Geophysics completed a helicopter-borne electromagnetic (VTEM Max) survey for Infinity Mining in October 2022 at several projects in the Pilbara including Hillside.
-
• A total of 125 late-time electromagnetic (EM) anomalies were identified during the quarter in the two new VTEM Max surveys at Hillside. Both Hillside surveys are dominated by strike extensive conductors which parallel the steeply dipping northsouth strike geology and associated structures.
-
A helicopter-borne EM survey (SkyTEM) flown by Infinity in 2018 also identified several concealed conductive EM anomalies which may represent buried sulphide mineralisation. A total of nine of the highest-priority SkyTEM targets were selected by Infinity for drill testing.

Tambourah South (E45/4848)
Maiden RC Drilling Program
During the quarter, Infinity announced the sample assay results from its maiden 2022 Scout drilling program at Tambourah South (E45/4848). Tambourah South is being explored for Pegmatite Hosted Li, Rb and Rare Earth Element (REE) deposits. Geological field mapping and recent rock chip sampling confirmed the presence of LCT and REE bearing pegmatites at surface with grades up to 3.86% Li2O, 338.5ppm Cs, 174ppm Nb, 3013.5ppm Rb and 233.7ppm Ta (see Figure 3 ).
The maiden RC drilling was designed to test 36 stacked Lithium-bearing pegmatite units, which show up to 558 m individual strike length, with a combined strike length of over 2.6 km. Drilling confirmed that these Li-bearing pegmatites at surface, with visible Spodumene and Lepidolite, continue at depth. A total of 41 individual pegmatite units were logged in 18 of the 21 drill holes, with down-hole intersections ranging from 1m to 35m. Drill hole details and full results are included in the Infinity ASX Announcements dated 2 November 2022 and 20 April 2023.

The down hole logging and assays also indicate that the outcropping Lithium bearing pegmatites are relativity steeply dipping and, in some areas, appear to merge at depth. Drilling also intersected blind or concealed pegmatites which do not outcrop. Figure 4 shows the currently mapped pegmatites on the western side of the licence, drill holes traces and position of cross-sections shown in Figures 5 and 6 . Infinity believes that these initial drilling results indicate that the project has high prospectivity for blind or concealed pegmatites and that currently exposed pegmatites may be the upper parts of larger more fertile system at depth.

Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) Survey
An Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey commenced on 24 March 2023 and finished in late April 2023. The ANT survey aims to generate 3D seismic images down to +200 m depth to help define the geometry of pegmatite zones at depth. The data will be used to interpret a 3D geological model of the pegmatite systems to assist with future drill targeting.
The ANT survey involved the deployment of Fleet Space Technologies’ ExoSphere geodes on the ground within the Tambourah South tenement area. The geodes utilise Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) to produce a 3D visualisation of the subsurface structures that may host lithium and rare earth element mineralisation in the pegmatite bodies.
The map shown below as Figure 7 outlines the positioning of the geodes across the project area. More details are included in the Infinity ASX Announcement dated 18 May 2023.

The seven survey areas shown on Figure 7 , were designed with geodes spaced approximately 220-240 m apart. Key areas identified by a white outline were resurveyed at alternate spacing for greater infill definitions. The data collected will allow Infinity Mining to estimate the size and orientation of pegmatite bodies, together with the identification of basement depth with specific targets to prioritise future drilling programs. The primary goal of the ANT survey is to map the pegmatite dykes at depth and identify areas where the pegmatites have formed large structurally controlled Lithium and Rare Earth Element deposits.
This dataset is currently being interpreted and the final results will be reported in more detail in the future.
Hillside (E45/4685, E45/4824, E45/4708 and E45/4709)
VTEM Survey Anomalies
During the quarter, Newexco Exploration Geophysical consultants completed interpretation of the October 2022 helicopter-borne electromagnetic (VTEM Max) surveys completed over four separate project areas of the Hillside, Panorama and Strelley Gorge project areas for a total of 967.8 line km. Two of the surveys were over the Hillside project and are located between two previous SkyTEM AEM surveys flown in 2018. The 2022 electromagnetic survey was flown to identify bedrock conductors which may be related to Volcanogenic Hosted Massive Sulphide (VHMS) and Magmatic Ni-Cu mineralisation. Details are included in Infinity ASX Announcements dated 10 May 2023.
An interpretation of the VTEM Max data by consultant geophysicists at Newexco Exploration in Perth identified 381 individual point anomalies across the 4 survey areas, many of which are aligned along geological trends.
A total of 125 anomalies were identified in the two new VTEM Max surveys at Hillside. Anomaly 28 in the northern block is unique, and along with anomalies 24, 33 and 36 is located west of a strike extensive conductor that runs through most of the northern Hillside block, see Figure 8 . Anomaly 15 in the southern survey is located alongside a strike extensive conductor that runs down the eastern side of the southern Hillside block, see Figure 8 . It appears to be part of a longer conductor and stands out on account of the high amplitude response in later survey times and exhibits a well-defined line profile.

Cultural Heritage Survey
A cultural heritage survey was undertaken with Heritage WA (Archaeological service providers) and representatives of the Nyamal Native Title Group over Infinity’s Hillside tenement E45/4824 in late March. Clearance was received during the quarter to support heavy equipment access and drill site clearing for Infinity to commence its first East Pilbara drilling program for 2023. Details are included in Infinity ASX Announcement dated 10 May 2023 and 18 May 2023.
Drill Targets
A helicopter-borne EM survey (SkyTEM) was flown by Infinity in 2018 and identified several concealed conductive anomalies which may represent buried sulphide mineralisation. A total of nine of the highest-priority SkyTEM targets were selected by Infinity for drill testing. The locations of the 9 proposed holes (HS22PDH03 to 12) are shown on Figure 9 . Two examples of the proposed holes are shown in more detail on Figures 10 and 11 below. These figures show an oblique 3D cross-sectional view of the conductivity depth-slice, looking north, and show the drill trace for the proposed drill hole that has been designed to intersect two of the EM conductive anomaly (circled area).

The main prospect of interest at Infinity’s Panorama licence E45/4779 is the Brisbane Nickel Prospect. Infinity’s previous exploration at the Brisbane Nickel Prospect confirmed the presence of a large Mg-rich ultra-mafic body (peridotite), with gossanous and silicified shear zones plus gossanous cherts along the peridotite contact. Rock chip samples from this area returned up to 7,636 ppm (0.764%) Ni, 8,918 ppm (0.892%) Cr and 2,569 ppm (0.257%) Zn (see Infinity ASX Announcement dated 15 December 2022).
A drilling program has been designed to drill test both the surface geochemistry and VTEM anomaly with 10 RC Holes. Six (6) of the holes are to be drilled at an incline under existing rock chip geochemistry and anomalous gossan to test down dip extensions of the peridotite. Four (4) holes will be drilled as inclined scissor holes to test the offset VTEM anomaly, see Figure 13 and Figure 14. Drilling has been planned but has not yet commenced.

Infinity has been granted $117,810 to undertake this proposed drilling program at the Brisbane Nickel Prospect on the Panorama Project (E45/4779). Infinity will fund the balance of the $268,720 program budget. Drilling is planned to commence later in 2023. Details are included in Infinity’s ASX Announcement dated 27 April 2023.
Strelley Gorge (E45/4735)
VTEM Survey Anomalies
During the quarter, Newexco Exploration Geophysical consultants completed interpretation of the October 2022 helicopter-borne electromagnetic (VTEM Max) surveys completed over four separate project areas of the Hillside, Panorama and Strelley Gorge project areas for a total of 967.8 line km. One of the surveys was over the Stelley Gorge project. This electromagnetic survey was flown to identify bedrock EM conductors which may be related to Volcanogenic Hosted Massive Sulphide (VHMS) and Magmatic Ni-Cu mineralisation. Details are included in Infinity ASX Announcement dated 10 May 2023.
A total of 60 late-time anomalies have been picked within the Strelley Gorge survey. Most anomalies have welldefined exponential decays with two anomalies displaying an exponential decay time constant higher than 7ms, (this is the time it takes for the size of the conductive response in the rocks to decay, and is proportional to the length, width and conductivity of the geological source).
The geology at Strelley Gorge is complex due to folding/faulting and as such there are various strike directions that make it difficult to link anomalies. In some cases, the marked anomaly position may also be the result of multiple sources. Although it is a small area, there are several conductive trends that may be stratigraphic. However, two anomalies (49 and 55) stand out, see Figure 15 . Located in the South-east, Anomaly 55 has a noticeably higher amplitude than surrounding anomalies. The decays are clearly exponential with a measured time constant of 4.33ms. The Southeast corner is of interest due to the proximity to the Sulphur Springs VHMS deposit currently owned by Develop Global Limited (ASX: DVP, formerly Venturex Resources Limited).
A five-year extension of term was granted during the quarter for tenement E45/4735, forming Infinity’s Strelley Gorge Project. Details are included in Infinity ASX Announcement dated 10 May 2023.

Acquisition of New Tenements
During the quarter, Infinity completed the acquisition of three new, highly prospective tenements in the East Pilbara, WA from TasEx Geological Services Pty Ltd (“TasEx” or the “Seller”). The new tenements include E45/5847, E46/1373 and E45/5720, see Figure 2 .
The new exploration licences add an additional 98.83km[2] in granted tenure, strengthening Infinity’s position in the Pilbara region to a total of 735.88km[2] (excluding applications). This new ground is considered highly prospective for shear hosted gold and VHMS deposits and paleo-placer gold deposits and adjoins the Company’s Tambourah South Lithium Project providing further Lithium discovery potential. Details are included in Infinity ASX Announcement dated 7 June 2023.
Tambourah North (E45/5324)
The Tambourah North Project is located 8 km north of the Tambourah South Project. The project covers a structural deformed section of a greenstone belt containing mafic and ultramafic rocks of the Euro Basalt. Work commenced within this project during 2022 and several potential pegmatites have been identified in satellite imagery. Further ground work is planned at Tambourah North later in 2023.
Noreena Downs (E46/1210)
No exploration work was conducted on the tenement during the quarter. The tenement was surrendered during the quarter on 12 June 2023.
Central Goldfields Projects – Leonora District

Great Northern – RC Drilling Results
The Great Northern project lies approximately 30 km east of Leonora (see Figure 16 ). The most recently drilled RC holes were designed to follow-up a 12-hole RC drilling program completed by Infinity in 2022, which returned several significant gold intercepts (see Infinity ASX Announcement dated 25 March 2022).
A total of five RC drill holes were completed in 2023 at the Great Northern Project on tenement P37/8310. The 2023 RC drilling results returned some significant gold intercepts, with a maximum 1m assay of 7.49 g/t Au in hole GN23RC112. Significant gold intercepts are shown below in Table 3 (0.1 g/t Au cut-off grade). A drill hole map showing the location of all drill holes at Great Northern is shown below on Figure 20 , including 11 drill holes completed by Melita in 1987, 12 RC holes completed by Infinity in 2022 and the five new RC holes completed by the Company in 2023.
Holes GN23RC112 and GN23RC113 were designed to test below the previous holes drilled by Melita in 1987 and those drilled by Infinity in 2022, to verify if gold mineralisation continues at depth. Both drill holes returned significant intercepts indicating that the gold mineralisation is still open at depth.
A SW-NE cross-section through the central part of the Great Northern gold mineralisation is included in Figure 21 , which shows that the NE-dipping gold-bearing zone of mineralisation is open at depth. A 3D interpretation of this gold system is underway, which will help design the next stage of drilling. The drilling to date has only tested mineralisation to shallow depths (maximum 80m), therefore further deeper drilling is well justified. Details are outlined in the ASX Announcement dated 1 June 2023.

Barlow’s Gully – RC Drilling Results
A total of nine RC drill holes were completed at the Barlow’s Gully Project on tenement P37/8278. The project lies within an Archaean greenstone belt along the Ursus Fault Zone, which is also host to several significant gold deposits along strike to the SSE, such as King of the Hills and Kailis (see Figure 16 ).
The 2023 RC drill holes were designed to test gold-bearing surface geochemical anomalies defined in 2022 (see Infinity ASX Announcement dated 30 June 2022)
The 2023 RC drilling results returned some significant gold intercepts, with a maximum 1 m assay of 3.54 g/t Au in hole BG23RC003. Details are outlined in the Infinity ASX Announcement dated 1 June 2023.
– Coppermine and Camel RC Drilling Results
A total of 3 RC drill holes were completed at the Coppermine Project, designed to test the drone magnetic target and area of the surface gossan. The 2023 RC drilling results returned a maximum 1m RC sample of 0.45% Cu from 1415m in hole CM23RC003, which was designed to test directly underneath the gossan. This interval also returned anomalous zinc (0.2% Zn) and gold (0.17 g/t Au). There were no other anomalous results in the other two drill holes.

A total of four RC drill holes were completed at Camel, designed to test the linear drone magnetic target and below some of the old gold workings. Recent RC drilling results returned a maximum 1m RC sample of 0.41 g/t Au from 55m depth in hole CA23RC001. There were no significant intercepts of greater than 1g/t Au in drill holes. However, some wide zones of low-grade gold >0.1 g/t Au were intersected, including 14m @ 0.19 g/t Au in hole CA23RC003. Further RC drilling will be considered at a later stage.
Anomalous Rare Earth Elements (REE)- Victor Bore
Anomalous Rare Earth Element (REE) assays were received from Victor Bore RC drill hole samples highlighting the potential for REE mineralisation at Victor Bore. A number of other Rare Earth projects occur in the Leonora area including the world-class Mt Weld Rare Earth Mine owned by Lynas Rare Earths (ASX: LYC), which is one of the highest grades REE deposits in the world (see Figure 22 ). Other REE projects in the neighbouring area include:

In May 2023, a small selection of 24 RC pulp samples were re-assayed using a more comprehensive multi-element package of 61 elements, which includes REEs. Note - only 24 pulp samples were re-assayed as an initial step to determine if any anomalous levels of REEs are present at Victor Bore.
The REEs assayed include the following elements: Cerium (Ce), Dysprosium (Dy), Erbium (Er), Europium (Eu), Gadolinium (Gd), Holmium (Ho), Lanthanum (La), Lutetium (Lu), Neodymium (Nd), Promethium (Pr), Scandium (Sc), Samarium (Sm), Terbium (Tb), Thulium (Tm), Yttrium (Y) and Ytterbium (Yb). The REE assay results for the 24 RC pulp samples are included in the Infinity ASX Announcement dated 15 June 2023.
The assay results show anomalous REE concentrations of up to 266.7 ppm Ce, 44.61 ppm Dy, 373.6 ppm La, 389.13 ppm Nd and 157.86 ppm Y. Two of the 24 RC samples returned assays of >1000 ppm total rare earth oxides (TREO) – see Figure x.
-
VB23RC008, 20 to 21 m depth, returned 1018 ppm (0.102 %) TREO (saprolite);
-
- VB23RC011, 53 to 54 m depth, returned 1582 ppm (0.158 %) TREO (felsic intrusion).
The anomalous REE assay in VB23RC008, 20-21m depth (1018 ppm TREO), is a strongly weathered, iron-bearing saprolite from the oxide zone at Victor Bore
The anomalous REE assay in VB23RC011, 53-54m depth, (1582 ppm TREO), was logged as a felsic intrusive rock (interpreted as a sub-volcanic dyke). The true composition of this igneous intrusive rock and its extent at Victor Bore is unknown at this stage and will be investigated by Infinity in the future.
Further work is planned by Infinity’s geology team to better understand the significance of these anomalous REE assays.
Other Projects – Central Goldfields
Many of the other tenements of the Central Goldfields (see Figure 16 ) have been subject to historical gold and copper exploration and small-scale historical mining activity. Geological data over these prospects are being compiled and interpreted by the Infinity geological team. Infinity is planning further exploration programs at the Central Goldfields later in 2023 and early 2024.
