Silver Equivalent Grades Used for Webbs Consol Silver Project[1]
Since the commencement of drilling at Webbs Consol Silver Project it was deemed that silver was the appropriate metal for equivalent calculations as silver is the most common metal to all mineralisation zones. This is still the case however zinc is becoming increasing dominant with depth and therefore LDR has decided to calculated both silver and zinc equivalent grades to demonstrate overall grades. Webbs Consol silver and zinc equivalent grades are based on assumptions: AgEq(g/t)=Ag(g/t)+32.31Zn(%)+27.47Pb(%)+87.05Cu(%)+83.05Au(g/t) & ZnEq(g/t)=0.031Ag(g/t)+Zn(%)+0.850Pb(%)+0.2.694Cu(%)+2.57Au(g/t) calculated from 12 February 2024 (previously 29 August 2022) spot metal prices of US$22.7/oz silver, US$2325/t zinc, US$2060/t lead, US$8100/t copper, US$2020/oz gold and metallurgical recoveries of 97.3% silver, 98.7% zinc, 94.7% lead, 76.3% copper and 90.8% gold which is the 4th stage rougher cumulative recoveries in test work commissioned by Lode and reported in LDR announcement 14 December 2021 titled “High Metal Recoveries in Preliminary Flotation Test work on Webbs Consol Mineralisation”. It is Lode’s opinion that all the elements included in the metal equivalents calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.

Montezuma Antimony Project
– a model for exploration
Structural geology
-
➢ Strong shearing and open space fracturing along the Montezuma Fault
-
➢ Montezuma structure (striking 012° grid, dipping 75° W), interception with surface modelled along strike
Geochemistry
-
➢ Historical antimony was rarely assayed – need to use geochemical associations Sb-Ag-Au-Pb-Cu-Zn-Sn
-
➢ Cassiterite (Sn) is relatively resistant to chemical weathering
-
➢ Sn anomaly over 500m strike
Modelled interception of Montezuma structure with surface is coincidental with Sn anomaly to the south

3 Montezuma Antimony Project, Tasmania Development Strategy and Next Steps at Montezuma
Exploration to include surface and development mapping/sampling, bring existing drilling up to JORC standards, surface and/or underground drilling
Aim to develop a mineable resource , supporting scaled up beneficiation plant
Development strategy
Montezuma already has the in-place regulatory approval to mine 1,000 tonnes of material
Development ore will initially be treated through a pilot scale beneficiation plant
Commodity traders have expressed strong off-take interest given tight global antimony supply
Next steps at Montezuma

5 Other Lode Resources Antimony and Precious Metals Projects Uralla Gold Project – Dominant Position In A Significant Goldfield
-
➢ The Uralla goldfield was one of the earlier goldfields discovered in NSW and a significant gold producer in the 1850’s. LDR’s holdings cover over 300 sqkm’s
-
➢ Uralla Granodiorite and other intrusives, which intrude Yarrowyck Granodiorite and Sandon Beds, are believed to be responsible for gold mineralisation in the Uralla Goldfield
-
➢ Characteristics of an Intrusive Related Gold System (IRGS) only been recently recognised. Tintina Gold Province of Alaska and Yukon is the best-known example of a IRGS with >50Moz of Au defined over the last 15 years − See https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2007/5289/SIR2007-5289A.pdf
-
➢ “Bonanza” Dyke, N-S Structure and Felsic dykes appear to be strong controlling features within the Uralla goldfield. Zonation of indicator metals Bi, As, Sb, Cu, Zn and Pb is a potential tool for vectoring towards larger targets
-
➢ Preliminary drill results show significant gold intercepts, highlighting the Project’s potential.
