MANAGING DIRECTOR, BARNABY EGERTON-WARBURTON, COMMENTED:
“The Lord Resources team have aggressively kicked off our exploration activities with just under 2,500m of RC Drilling at Jarama resulting in a follow up target for deeper RC drilling. The Company has also advanced the Horse Rocks project closer to grant and looks forward to getting on ground and starting our initial exploration program at the project.
The promised MLEM geophysical survey at the Cambridge Ni Project has been completed, and we eagerly await the results and interpretation. Gabyon has seen a preliminary reconnaissance program completed with drilling targeted for early Q4 2022, which leads the company into a very busy second half of the year.

Lord Resources Limited ( ASX: LRD ) ( “Lord” or the “Company ”) is pleased to provide an update on exploration activities at the Horse Rocks, Jarama, Cambridge and Gabyon Projects.
HORSE ROCKS LITHIUM PROJECT
Lord is please to advise the tenement granting process has advanced to the next stage, with the Company being notified that the Minister for Environment has provided the Minister for Mines and Petroleum with formal recommendations regarding consent for the tenement holder to access the Yallari Timber Reserve, subject to compliance with the Company’s Conservation Management Plan (CMP).
It is expected that the Minister for Mines and Petroleum will now recommend to the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety that it grant the tenement, subject to conditions, including compliance with the CMP.
Once the tenement has been granted, the Company has planned a comprehensive geochemical program to test for near-surface lithium anomalism.

Located within the highly fertile Kalgoorlie Terrane (Figure 2), the Horse Rocks Lithium Project contains mapped pegmatites that are yet to be tested for lithium. The Mt Marion, Bald Hill and Dome North lithium deposits are all within 100km of the Horse Rocks project, in similar geological setting.
JARAMA GOLD PROJECT
The inaugural drilling program for Lord has been successfully completed at the Jarama Project (E59/2501), in the Murchison Region of Western Australia. A total of 54 holes were drilled for 2,496m, testing for near surface mineralisation along the Banded Iron Formation (BIF) unit that runs through the tenement ( Error! Reference source not found. Appendix 1, Figure 3), and located 17km north of the recent Yidby discovery (ASX: SRN). The program was designed as aircore blade, however the lack of developed regolith gave a shallow blade refusal, and the program was pivoted to shallow RC (hammer).
Four lines of drilling, spaced 400m apart, were completed over the magnetic high unit, testing for gold anomalism. Samples were collected as composites and analysed for gold, with the end of hole sample submitted for multi-element analysis.
Drillhole 22JRC008 retuned an anomalous result of 0.59g/t gold from the end of hole (35-36m). This was within weakly sheared basalt with magnetite and biotite alteration and trace pyrite, near the contact with the BIF unit.

CAMBRIDGE NICKEL PROJECT
A Moving Loop Electro-Magnetic (MLEM) survey has been completed at the Cambridge Nickel Project, located southeast of Laverton, WA. The survey was designed to test for massive sulphide minerals near the contact of the metasediments and ultramafic units. A geophysical report is pending, which will aid with drill targeting.
GABYON GOLD PROJECT
The Company has completed an initial reconnaissance programme at the Gabyon Project and is now planning a RC drill program testing for gold mineralisation at the Woolgerong & Elya Bore prospects. We expect the drilling to occur in Q4 of this year, following cultural heritage and ground disturbing approval.
CORPORATE
The Company wishes to advise that pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 3.10A, 1,500,000 ordinary shares will be released from escrow on 19 August 2022. The company also advises that work on a prospectus for the options entitlement issue as detailed in the company’s IPO prospectus is underway and is expected to be completed in the next four weeks.

APPENDIX 2 – JORC TABLE 1
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| Sampling techniques |
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down-hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. |
• Sampling completed by Lord Resources Ltd (LRD) is conducted using industry standard practice, including the use of duplicates, blanks and CRM’s at regular intervals. The performance of QAQC is monitored on a batch-by-batch basis. • The sampling in this announcement has been carried out using reverse circulation (RC) drilling • A total of 54 holes were drilled, for 2496m (22JRC001-054), with depths ranging from 4m to 77m. • Sample quality was high with any sample loss or moisture recorded in the sample table. • All samples were analysed at ALS laboratories for gold, with end of hole samples analysed for multi-element analysis. |
| Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. |
• Drillholes were located using hand-held GPS. • Sampling was carried out under LRD protocols and QAQC procedures as per current industry practice. See further details below. |
|
| Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
• RC drilling was used to obtain 1m samples collected through a cyclone into buckets and placed on the ground as 1m samples, generally in rows of 10. Samples are collected with a scoop to generate 5m composite samples, or variable samples at EOH. The 2-3 kg composite samples were dispatched to ALS laboratories in Perth. These samples were sorted and dried by the assay laboratory, pulverised to form a 50gm charge for Fire Assay/AAS. |
|
| Drilling techniques | Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc.) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc.). |
• Inclined drilling was completed by Discovery Drilling Australia. • The initial program was designed as AC blade drilling. However, with the shallow depth to blade refusal, the program was pivoted to shallow slim- line RC hammer drilling. |
| Drill sample recovery |
Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. |
• The majority of samples were dry with sample quality recorded in the Sample Table. • Sample recoveries were visually estimated and recorded in the Sample Table. |
| Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure |
• The drill cyclone and buckets were cleaned between rod changes and at the end of each hole,to minimise contamination. |

| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| representative nature of the samples. |
||
| Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material. |
• At this stage, there is no observed relationship between recovery and grade in the drilling. |
|
| Logging | Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. |
• All holes were logged geologically by LRD geologists, using the companies logging scheme. |
| Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc.) photography. |
• Logging is both qualitative and quantitative in nature. • Logging includes recording lithology, mineralogy, mineralisation, weathering, colour and any other identifiable features, for the entire drillhole. • Aphotograph taken of the drill spoils for each drillhole |
|
| The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged. |
• All drillholes were logged in full. |
|
| Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation |
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. |
• No core samples were collected. |
| If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc. and whether sampled wet or dry. |
• Composite samples, 1m individual samples and EOH samples were collected using a scoop. Samples are recorded as dry, wet or damp. Results from the composite samples are used to identify which single metre samples will be submitted to laboratory. |
|
| For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique. |
• Samples were prepared at the ALS geochemical laboratory in Perth. • Samples were dried, and the whole sample pulverised to 90% passing 75um, and a reference sub-sample of approximately 200g retained. • A nominal 50g was used for the analysis (FA/ICP-AES). The procedure is industry standard for this type of sample. • The deepest sample (end of hole) also underwent multi-element analysis (ME-MS61L and MS61L-REE) |
|
| Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. |
• Certified Reference Materials (CRM’s) for gold were inserted at a ratio of approximately 1:50. • Samples are collected at 1 m intervals and composited into 5 m samples using a scoop to sample individual metre samples. CRM’s and/or blanks are analysed with each batch of samples. These quality control results are reported alongwith the sample values in the final report. |
|
| Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling. |
• Duplicate samples were collected at a ratio of approximately 1:50. • Compositing of samples involves collection of representative scoops from within the single sample meter pile. Samples weigh 2-3kg prior to pulverisation. |
|
| Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. |
• Sample sizes are considered appropriate to give an indication of mineralisation given the particle sizes and the practical requirement to maintain manageable sample weights. |
|
| Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total. |
• Gold analysis by fire assay is considered a total digest, and is considered appropriate for gold exploration. • Four acid digest and ICP-MS analysis is considered a near total method for the 52 elements assayed for. The method is considered appropriate for baseline exploration geochemistry. |

| minor siltstone and ultramafic volcanic rocks (Singleton Formation), which have been intruded by dolerite sills (Warriedar Suite). The north- northwest trending greenstone belt appears to be pinched out by monzogranite intrusive rocks to the west and northeast, presenting a potential fluid trap for hydrothermal mineralisation. • The regional scale north-northeast trending Fields Find (Monger) Shear runs through the centre of the tenure, correlating with the Monger Lake drainage system. A southeast Proterozoic dolerite dyke has transected the Project area, running parallel with what has been mapped as an ultramafic unit. There is a notable magnetic high signature within the tenure, indicating a change in lithology or alteration. • The Jarama Project is predominantly covered with depositional regolith units, including distal colluvial outwash fans that merge with playa-lake units within and surrounding Mongers Lake system. This transported cover has limitedprevious exploration. |

| Drillhole Information |
A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drillholes: • easting and northing of the drillhole collar • elevation or RL (elevation above sea level in metres) of the drillhole collar • dip and azimuth of the hole • down hole length and interception depth hole length. |
• An overview of the drill program is given within the text and tables of this announcement. |
| Data aggregation methods |
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. |
• Assays results are reported as down-hole length-weighted averages of grades. • No top-cuts have been applied. • The maximum gold value for each drillhole has been tabulated and depicted in the images. |
| 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. |
• Where reported intercepts contain a narrower internal of higher-grade material, a sub-interval is reported and tabulated in the text of the report |
|
| The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
• No metal equivalent values are used. |
|
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drillhole 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(e.g. |
• Due to the wide spacing of the drilling lines, the geometry of mineralisation is not known. • All intercept lengths reported are derived from downhole depths. • No true widths have been reported. |

| ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |
||
| 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 a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
• Refer to diagrams and figures in this announcement. |
| 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. |
• The report has been prepared to summarise the material results of drilling program. • |
| 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. |
• All material results from exploration at Jarama have been disclosed in this announcement. |
| Further work | The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step- out drilling). |
• Further work is likely to include deeper RC drilling to test the extent and geometry of mineralisation. |
