GOLD ASSAYS ENHANCE HIGH-GRADE ANTIMONY AND SILVER DRILL INTERCEPTS

Lode Resources Ltd (‘Lode’ or ‘Company’) (ASX: LDR) is pleased to announce that the first batch of gold assays have now been received from the extensive drill programme currently underway at the Montezuma Antimony & Silver Project. These gold assays significantly enhance the first batch of previously reported high-grade antimony and silver drill intercepts.

Highlights

• Gold assays have been received from the first 9 holes in a 50-to-60-hole drilling programme (8,000m to 10,000m) which is in progress at the Montezuma Antimony & Silver Project located in Tasmanian’s premier West Coast Mining Province.

• These gold assays significantly enhance the previously reported high-grade antimony and silver drill intercepts encountered within the semi parallel hanging wall and footwall lodes as well as numerous stockwork vein zones.

• These intercepts include:

• ➢ 5.14% SbEq or 1825 g/t AgEq plus 1.31 g/t Au over 1.6m in drill hole MZS05

• ➢ 3.66% SbEq or 1301 g/t AgEq plus 0.40 g/t Au over 1.0m in drill hole MZS08

• ➢ 1.67% SbEq or 593 g/t AgEq plus 1.12 g/t Au over 0.9m in drill hole MZS09

• ➢ 4.39% SbEq or 1561 g/t AgEq plus 0.57 g/t Au over 1.6m in drill hole MZS10 ➢ 4.27% SbEq or 1519 g/t AgEq plus 0.85 g/t Au over 3.5m in drill hole MZS11 incl: 9.16% SbEq or 3254 g/t AgEq plus 1.54 g/t Au over 1.5m in drill hole MZS11

• ➢ 3.07% SbEq or 1092 g/t AgEq plus 0.91 g/t Au over 1.0m in drill hole MZS12 ➢ 1.69% SbEq or 599 g/t AgEq plus 3.26 g/t Au over 1.5m in drill hole MZS12 ➢ 2.27% SbEq or 806 g/t AgEq plus 1.13 g/t Au over 9.2m in drill hole MZS13 incl: 3.19% SbEq or 1133 g/t AgEq plus 1.72 g/t Au over 6.2m in drill hole MZS13 ➢ 0.81% SbEq or 287 g/t AgEq plus 0.58 g/t Au over 3.1m in drill hole MZS13 incl: 1.90% SbEq or 677 g/t AgEq plus 1.46 g/t Au over 1.1m in drill hole MZS13

• Further drill hole assay results are expected shortly. Drilling is on-going with the Montezuma antimony and silver lode remaining open both along strike and at depth.

• LDR is reporting both antimony and silver equivalent figures due to interchanging dominance of these two metals from intercept to intercept. Gold assay figures are not included in equivalent figures as gold was not assayed in an early flotation test.

• ALS Metallurgy in Bernie has been commissioned to complete comprehensive flotation tests on Montezuma Antimony & Silver mineralisation including the recovery of gold.

Lode’s Managing Director Ted Leschke said : “These gold assays substantially enhance the already high metal values in Montezuma’s mineralisation. Lode’s exploration and project generation is in alignment with the Tasmanian Government’s Critical Minerals Strategy*. In a relatively short period of time Lode has demonstrated a strong ability to generate projects that will enhance Tasmania’s critical resource credentials. Plans are underway to augment the Montezuma Antimony and Silver Project through the exploration of other areas that are prospective for critical minerals.”

Montezuma Antimony & Silver Project - High-Grade Intercepts Including Gold

The first batch of gold assays have been received significantly enhancing the previously reported first - batch of high grade antimony and silver drill assay results received from an extensive drill programme currently underway at the Montezuma Antimony & Silver Project located in Tasmania’s premier West Coast Mining Province.

A 50-to-60-hole drill programme (8,000m to 10,000m) is in progress at the Montezuma Antimony & Silver Project. The drilling programme is quantifying and extending the Montezuma deposit, both down dip and along strike.

These gold assays substantially enhance the previously reported high-grade antimony and silver drill intercepts encountered within the semi parallel hanging wall and footwall lodes as well as numerous stockwork vein zones.

All drilling to date has intercepted significantly mineralised intercepts and the mineralised structures remain open in all directions.

The highest-grade mineralised intercepts encountered in the first 8 drill holes on two sections are shown in Table 1 below. Note that antimony and silver equivalent figures do not incorporate gold assay figures. as gold recoveries have not yet been investigated

Antimony and silver are by far the most dominant metals however significant gold, lead and copper values do add substantially to the overall endowment of mineralisation.

A further 10 drill holes have been completed with assaying being performed by ALS in Burnie Tasmania as well as ALS in Brisbane and Townsville due to overwhelming large number of samples requiring assaying.

The Montezuma antimony-silver deposit is a structurally controlled lode, emplaced primarily within the well-known Montezuma fault and hosted by a sequence of turbidites, siltstones, sandstones and black shale units. Antimony is contained within Jamesonite, a lead-iron-antimony sulphide mineral (Pb4FeSb6S14) and is a late-stage hydrothermal mineral forming at moderate to low temperatures. Stibnite (Sb2S3) is also relatively abundant.

1Montezuma Antimony and Silver Metal Equivalent Grades

LDR is reporting both antimony and silver equivalent grade figures due to interchanging dominance of these two metals from intercept to intercept. Metal equivalent grade figures are a method of demonstrating overall metal endowment for all significant metals grades in a single grade figure for each intercept and thus allowing a simpler comparison between intercepts. Montezuma reported antimony and silver equivalent figures are based on conversion factors as follows:

• ➢ SbEq(%) = Sb(%) + 0.00281Ag(g/t) + 0.056Pb(%) + 0.29*Cu(%)

• ➢ AgEq(g/t) = Ag(g/t) + 355Sb(%) + 20Pb(%) + 101*Cu(%)

Metal equivalent conversion factors were calculated using 30 December 2024 metal prices of US$34,747/t antimony, US$29.1/oz silver, US$1,912/t lead and US$8,705/t copper. The antimony price was calculated as average of several antimony products in a number of markets including:

• ➢ antimony concentrate delivered China

• ➢ antimony ingot FOB China

• ➢ antimony trioxide FOB China

• ➢ antimony trioxide in warehouse Baltimore

• ➢ antimony ingot in warehouse Baltimore

• ➢ antimony trioxide in warehouse Baltimore

• ➢ antimony trioxide in warehouse Rotterdam

Metal equivalent conversion factors were calculated using a preliminary flotation test carried out by ALS Metallurgy (Burnie) in September 2019, where recoveries achieved were 74.5% antimony, 77.9% silver, 75.8% lead and 84.8% copper. It is Lode’s opinion that all the elements included in the metal equivalents calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.

The Montezuma Antimony Project

The Montezuma Antimony Project includes a high-grade antimony-silver deposit with initial development, advanced metallurgical test work and considerable beneficiation infrastructure. Access is via the Zeehan township located 1km to the west.

The Montezuma Antimony Project (2M-2023, EL7-2019) is located between well-known mining centres such as:

• Rosebery (Zn,Cu,Pb) owned by MMG Ltd

• Renison Bell (Sn) owned by Metals X Ltd and Yunnan Tin Group Company Limited

• Henty (Au) owned by Catalyst Metals Ltd

• Zeehan (Sn,Pb,Ag) owned by Stellar Resources Limited.

Antimony is classified as a critical metal by both the Australian Federal Government and the Tasmanian State Government, as well as almost every advanced western nation. Montezuma is Tasmania’s only antimony project.

The Montezuma Antimony and Silver Project includes a variety of mining and exploration equipment, and considerable beneficiation infrastructure located 15km northwest of the Zeehan township. Infrastructure includes connection to grid power, cone crusher, ball mill, gravity tables, spirals, tankage, raw water and a recently constructed tailings dam. Trial pilot scale beneficiation treatment of Montezuma mineralisation is planned once metallurgical parameters, flowsheet configuration and permitting are finalised.

The Montezuma antimony-silver lode is structurally controlled with strong shearing and open space fracturing along the Montezuma Fault. Modelling of this structure using drilling and surface mapping of the existing known mineralised lode shows that the Montezuma structure strikes approximately 350° and dips 65° E. Extrapolation of the interception between the modelled Montezuma structure and surface along strike was an exploration method used to map and sample lode extensions.

Historically, previous explorers focused primarily on tin (Sn) and lead-zinc (Pb-Zn) exploration and antimony was rarely assayed. Assays of mineralisation encountered in drilling to date has shown there is good geochemical associations between several elements, that being Sb-Ag-Au-Pb-Cu-Zn-Sn.

Cassiterite is a tin bearing mineral which is relatively resistant to chemical weathering due it being an oxide (SnO2) and resistant to physical weathering due its high density (7.3 g/cm[3] ). Historic soil sampling by Electrolytic Zinc Company of Australia Ltd in the 1980’s has revealed a strong Sn anomaly associated with the Montezuma mineralisation over 500m strike.

Previous Drilling (all assays previously reported[3-9] )

Previous drilling at the Montezuma Antimony and Silver Project focused on a relatively small but very high-grade section of the hanging wall lode (HW). Twelve drill holes returned bonanza antimony and silver grades over approximately a 25m strike x 20 depth area of the hanging wall lode.

Development Face and Bulk Sampling (all assays previously reported[3-9] )

Development of the portal box cut and exploration drive has provided an opportunity for development face and bulk sampling. Previously samples were taken from three development faces up to the initial adit face, each representing a 2.4m cut (drilled, charged, blasted, mineralised/waste rock removed and stockpiled).

These development face samples have graded up to 21.4% antimony (Sb), 2,478 g/t silver (Ag) and 44.3% lead (Pb). Antimony (Sb) grades ranged from 1.54% to 21.40%, lead (Pb) grades ranged from 2.13% to 44.3% and silver (Ag) grades ranged from 93 g/t to 2,478 g/t.

Total interval grades for face sampling are 9.3% antimony (Sb), 306 g/t silver (Ag) and 16.7% lead (Pb) over 1.85m for development face LT1, 7.8% antimony (Sb), 804 g/t silver (Ag) and 10.9% lead (Pb) over 2.20m for development face LT2 and 6.2% antimony (Sb), 301 g/t silver (Ag) and 11.7% lead (Pb) over 2.00m for development face LT3.

Previously representative sample assays of mineralisation mined during box cut and portal development averaged 4.75% antimony (Sb), 239 g/t silver (Ag) and 9.36% lead (Pb) for combined mineralisation/waste batches and representative sampling averaged 9.02% antimony (Sb), 769 g/t silver (Ag) and 15.47% lead (Pb) for mineralisation only batches. The latter reconciles well with corresponding face sampling – see LT1 Total Interval in Table 4.

Antimony - One of the World’s most critical metals

Antimony is classified as a critical metal by both the Australian Federal Government and the Tasmanian State Government, as well as almost every advanced western nation. Antimony markets have tightened further with China announcing the ban on antimony exports specifically to the United States on 3 December*. This curb strengthens the enforcement of existing limits on critical minerals exported from China announced last year and the more specific ban on certain antimony product exports early this year, all due to national security concerns. Antimony prices have now reached record levels due to tight supply conditions.

The Tasmanian Government recently outlined a Critical Minerals Strategy which includes the objective of growing exploration for critical minerals and supporting critical minerals projects. Montezuma, 100% owned by Lode, is Tasmania’s only antimony project**.

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results

(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)

Criteria	JORC Code explanation	Commentary
Mineral tenement and land tenure status	• Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material issues with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests, historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings. • The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operateinthe area.	• The Montezuma Project is located on tenements EL7/2019 and 2M/2023. • These tenements are 100% held by Spero Mining Pty Ltd, Granville Mining Pty Ltd and parties related to the recent 100% acquisition by Lode Resources Ltd. • Native title does not exist over the above tenements. • All leases/tenements are in good standing.
Exploration done by other parties	• Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties.	• The Montezuma deposit was discovered during extensive historic silver mining activity in the Zeehan-Dundas region in the 1880’s to the 1920’s. • Electrolytic Zinc Company (EZ) completed 3 diamond holes including MZP245a that intersected high grade antimony-silver-lead mineralisation in 1983. • Spero Mining established a costean on the mineralisation and drilled several short diamond holes.
Geology	• Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.	• The Montezuma Antimony Project deposit is a structurally controlled lode, associated with the Montezuma fault. Fault related fissure vein mineralisation is associated with Silurian granite intrusions associated with widespread Sn-W and Pb-Zn-Ag-Sb mineralising event in western Tasmania. Low temperature, high sulphidation Ag rich base -metal mineralisation is located distally to high temperature Sn-W deposits. Antimony and lead are contained primarily within Jamesonite, a lead-iron- antimony sulphide mineral (Pb4FeSb6S14). Stibnite (Sb2S3) is also relatively abundant. This project is also prospective for gold, zinc, copper, tin and tungsten.
Drill hole Information	• A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes, including, easting and northing, elevation or RL, dip and azimuth, down hole length, interception depth and hole length. • If the exclusion of this information is justified the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.	• See tables containing relevant drill collar details and intercept depths and grades in the body of this report.
Data aggregation methods	• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-offgrades are usuallyMaterial	• Intersection calculations are weighted to sample length. • No grade capping has been applied. • Montezuma reported antimony and silver equivalent figures are based on conversion

	and should be stated. • Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high-grade results and longer lengths of low-grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. • The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated.	factors as follows: • SbEq(%) = Sb(%) + 0.00281Ag(g/t) + 0.056Pb(%) + 0.29Cu(%) • AgEq(g/t) = Ag(g/t) + 355Sb(%) + 20Pb(%) + 101Cu(%) • Metal equivalent conversion factors were calculated using 30 December 2025 metal prices of US$34747/t antimony, US$29.1/oz silver, US$1912/t lead and US$8705/t copper. • Metal equivalent conversion factors were calculated using a preliminary flotation test carried out by ALS Metallurgy (Burnie) in September 2019 where recoveries achieved were 74.5% antimony, 77.9% silver, 75.8% lead and 84.8% copper. It is Lode’s opinion that all the elements included in the metal equivalents calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold. • .
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 drill hole 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 (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’).	• The azimuth and dip of all diamond drill holes was oriented approximately perpendicular to the strike direction of the mineralisation. • An Atlas Copco Diamec underground drill rig was used to allow shallow dipping holes in the steep topography to achieve industry best practice drill intercepts. • Down hole and estimated true width intercepts are included in the body of this report.
Diagrams	• Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported. These should include, but not be limited to plans and sections.	• Refer to plans and sections within this report.
Balanced reporting	• Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.	• All exploration results discussed in this report are included in the tables and figures associated with this report. • Exploration results previously reported in LDR ASX announcements are listed at the end of this report.
Other substantive exploration data	• Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances.	• Development of portal box cut and exploration drive has commenced with samples taken from three development faces up to the initial adit face, each representing a 2.4m mining cut. See LDR announcement 9 December 2024 titled “Montezuma Antimony Project Development Activities Commence”. • Development of a portal box cut and the commencement of an exploration drive has produced stockpiled mineralisation. • Preliminary metallurgical testwork including flowsheet design, test work and engineering plansfortheMontezumaAntimonyProjectwere
