DIGESTION TEST RESULTS GAOUAL HIGH GRADE CONGLOMERATE BAUXITE PROJECT

HIGHLIGHTS

• The digestion test work completed on the screened ores has confirmed they are Gibbsite dominant and suited well to both Low Temperature and High Temperature Bayer process alumina refineries.

• With the much-reduced silica levels in the screened ores, the Reactive silica percentage levels are now in line with the highest quality bauxites in Guinea .

• The Gaoual Project’s Bouba Conglomerate Bauxite Plateau has a high grade tonnage of 83.8 Mt[1] (45% Al2O3 Cut off grade – indicated category) which has the capacity to have the ore quality significantly upgraded using a simple screening process.

Lindian Resources Limited (ASX: LIN ) (“ Lindian ” or “ the Company ”) is pleased to advise it has received results of the Digestion test work on the screened ores from the Bouba Plateau within the Gaoual High Grade Conglomerate Bauxite Project in Guinea.

DIGESTION RESULTS SUMMARY

Digestion test work was completed upon the coarse fraction of the beneficiated bauxite ores from the primary screening test work completed in December 2020 - January 2021. This test work was completed so as to confirm the “digest-ability” of the ores in both Low Temperature and High Temperature digestion settings and to confirm the mineralogical make-up of the materials being tested.

Table 1: Summary of Digestion Results

A total of 28 tests were completed upon the coarse fraction bauxite ore samples, representing 4 samples from each of the 7 test pits sampled. Each sampled was digested at both low temperature and high temperature equivalents by Bureau Veritas – Perth with Total Available Alumina (“TAA”) and Reactive Silica (“RSi”) reported. A summary of the results is as below:

• The Low Temperature (“LT”) Digestions of the high grade (“HG”) test pits bauxite averaged 88% TAA recovery (51.2% TAA) and 59% RSi recovery (1.6% RSi). The High Temperature (“HT”) Digestions of the HG test pits bauxite averaged 93% TAA recovery (54.4% TAA) and 92% RSi recovery (2.6% RSi).

• The lower of recoveries in TAA in the LT Digestions of the HG pits bauxite ore is caused by a minor component of Boehmite. This is determined by the HT digestions having a smaller range of TAA recoveries and are those TAA recoveries themselves being very high (>90% TAA).

• The increasing RSi recovery from LT to HT digestions for the HG test pits indicates that there is only a small presence of coarse unreactive quartz, and quartz that is present may be very fine grained and able to be digested at the HT digestions.

• The LG test pits indicated that all of the coarse fraction bauxite samples were able to be digested easily with LT TAA recoveries ranging from 85-87% recovery (averaging 86%), and the HT TAA recoveries ranging from 88-90% recovery (averaging 89%),

The digestion test work completed upon the beneficiated ores has confirmed that these ores are gibbsite dominant and suited well to both LT and HT Bayer process alumina plants. With the much-reduced silica levels in the beneficiated ores, the RSi grades have now been decreased to levels in line with the highest quality bauxites being mined and exported from Guinea.

ABOUT LINDIAN RESOURCES LIMITED

Lindian Resources Limited (“Lindian”) is a bauxite focused exploration company listed on the Australian Stock Exchange under the ASX code LIN.

The combination of assets offers the opportunity for near term production via the Woula Project while simultaneously advancing the larger, multi-generational bauxite assets, the very high grade Conglomerate Bauxite Gaoual Project and the world class Tier 1 Lelouma Project.

Company Highlights

• Very high quality product available from Gaoual Project ( 58.4% Al2O3 & 2.8% SiO2 )

• • ~1Bt of high quality (JORC 2012) resources.

• • Strategic landholding in the premier bauxite province o 95% of African bauxite exports are from Guinea

• o Guinea the no.1 exporter to China

• o 7 bauxite export terminals in Guinea Figure 1 – Lindian Project Location Map[1]

GAOUAL PROJECT SCREENING TEST WORKS

Screening test work results from the Bouba Conglomerate Bauxite Plateau within the Gaoual Project confirmed that a simple screening process reduced SiO2 significantly (to 2.8% SiO2 ) and raised Al2O3 ( to 58.4%) in the conglomerate samples, with minimal loss of tonnage.

The Gaoual Project’s Bouba Conglomerate Bauxite Plateau has a high grade tonnage of 83.8 Mt[1] (45% Al2O3 Cut off grade – indicated category) which has the capacity to have the ore quality significantly upgraded using a simple screening process.
