Lode Resources Ltd (‘Lode’ or ‘Company’) (ASX: LDR) is pleased to announce that initial reconnaissance sampling at the Silver Cliffs prospect, located within the newly acquired Silver Hills Project in Tasmania, has returned exceptionally high grades of up to 9,370 g/t silver and 18.6% antimony .

Silver Cliffs represents Lode’s third high-grade silver-antimony project in Tasmania and significantly expands the Company’s growing portfolio of critical minerals assets in the State’s highly prospective West Coast mining district .

Lode Resources Managing Director Keith Mayes said: “The identification of high-grade silver and antimony mineralisation at the recently acquired Silver Hills Project highlights the effectiveness of Lode’s exploration targeting and reinforces the significant, yet underexplored, prospectivity of Tasmania’s West Coast.

Silver Hills is an exciting addition to Lode’s growing portfolio of high-grade projects in the area, and we have only just begun to evaluate the full potential of this highly prospective new asset.”

Executive Director - Exploration Ted Leschke said: “The silver grades returned from the Silver Cliffs workings are exceptional – the highest recorded to date across any of Lode’s projects – and are accompanied by very high antimony values.

The Silver Hills exploration license completely surrounds the historic Mt Bischoff Mine, further highlighting the prospectivity of the area. We are very excited about advancing the project and look forward to commencing drilling once approvals are in place.”

Super High-Grade Silver & Antimony Identifed at Silver Cliffs[5]

Initial reconnaissance sampling from historical waste dumps at the Silver Cliffs workings, the first prospect to be investigated within the recently acquired Silver Hills Project (EL6/2025), have returned exceptionally highgrade silver, antimony, lead and zinc assays (see Table 1 and Figure 2). These results highlight the strong potential for a high-grade mineralised system within the project area and further demonstrate the prospectivity of Lode’s newly expanded Tasmanian landholding.

Grab sampling is selective in nature with resultant assay grades considered to be indicative only, providing qualitative evidence of mineralisation, rather than representative grades of which may be lower or higher.

The Silver Cliffs prospect is located within the recently acquired Silver Hills Project (EL6/2025) located near the township of Waratah, part of Tasmania’s premier West Coast mining district. The Exploration License surrounds the historic Mt Bischoff tin mine held by Bluestone Metals on Mine Lease 12M/2006, highlighting the strong mineral endowment of the area and placing the project within an established and well-endowed mining province

The Silver Cliffs workings extend over more than 300 metres of strike and comprise a series of historical adits and waste dumps, indicating the presence of a potentially significant mineralised system. The prospect represents Lode’s third high-grade silver–antimony project in Tasmania , strengthening the Company’s growing portfolio of critical mineral assets.

Mineralisation at Silver Cliffs is characterised by high-grade epithermal silver, antimony, lead and zinc. Minerals present include jamesonite, galena, tetrahedrite, sphalerite and chalcopyrite.

Silver Cliffs mineralogy is similar to the Montezuma Silver & Antimony deposit, located near the township of Zeehan, and the Fahlore Silver & Antimony deposit, located near Rosebery – all three owned by Lode.

Fieldwork is ongoing at the Silver Hills Project, with the Company targeting additional mineralised systems that have not been subject to modern exploration techniques . In addition to Silver Cliffs, the Persic and North Valley prospects are of particular interest with historical records indicating the presence of silver and antimony as well as base metals.

About Lode Resources

Lode Resources Ltd (LDR) is an ASX-listed explorer focused on the highly prospective but under-explored New England Fold Belt in north-eastern NSW and the Montezuma Silver & Antimony Project located in Tasmanian’s premier West Coast Mining Province. The Company has assembled a portfolio of brownfield precious and base metal assets characterised by:

• 100% ownership;

• Significant historical geochemistry and/or geophysics;

• Under-drilled and/or open-ended mineralisation; and

• Demonstrated high-grade mineralisation and/or potential for large mineral occurrences.

This has resulted in a portfolio of assets with diverse mineralisation styles consisting of four core projects of current focus

1. Montezuma Silver & Antimony Project – Located on the west coast of Tasmania, a region well known for mining activity, the Project consists of a high-grade antimony-silver-lead deposit with initial development, advanced metallurgical test work and significant beneficiation infrastructure.

2. Uralla Gold – Located 8km west of the Uralla township, this goldfield was one of the earlier goldfields discovered in NSW and a significant gold producer in the 1850’s. Despite this long history the mineralisation style has only recently been recognised as being an Intrusive Related Gold System (IRGS) and this has strong implications for this project’s discovery potential. Lode’s holdings cover over 300 square kilometres.

3. New England Antimony Project – Located in one of Australia’s most prolific antimony producing provinces, 19 antimony prospects have already been identified within the Exploration Licences (EL) EL9662 and EL9319, both controlled 100% by Lode. The project is anchored by the Magwood Mine, discovered in the 1880s and mainly worked between 1941 and 1970, and was Australia’s primary producer of antimony.

4. Granville Tin Project – Located approximately 5 km west of Zeehan in Tasmania, this project is known for its high-grade tin skarn mineralisation. Infrastructure includes connection to grid power, ball mill, gravity tables, spirals, tankage, raw water and a recently constructed tailings dam.

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 thetime of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a • licence to operateinthe area.	• The Silver Hills Project is located on tenement EL6/2025. • These tenements are 100% held by Spero Mining Pty Ltd, a 100% owned subsidiary of 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 Waratah mining district has seen extensive albeit intermittent historic mining activity since the 1880’s up to 2010. The Mt Bishoff tin mine was the most dominant mine in the district.
Geology	• Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.	• The Silver Cliff silver and antimony deposit is a structurally controlled lode, associated with N-S fault structures. 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. The district is prospective for this under-explored style of mineralisation. This project area is also prospective forgold,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 and figures containing relevant sample locations 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-off grades are usually Material 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	• No grade capping, aggregating or averaging has been applied.

	clearly stated.
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’).	• Not applicable. This report refers rock chip samples.
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 maps 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 contaminatingsubstances.	• Structurally controlled lode silver and antimony mineralisation has not been subject to modern exploration. Lode is the first modern exploration company to initiate exploration on this style of mineralisation.
Further work	• The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling). • Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive.	• Lode has submitted an application for inaugural drilling at the Silver Cliffs prospect application with Mineral Resources Tasmania.
