Caldeira Project Definitive Acquisition Agreement Signed

Highlights

  • Definitive Agreement signed with Togni Group of Companies for the acquisition of the Caldeira Project, a Tier 1 Ionic Clay Rare Earths Project located in Minas Gerais State, Brazil

  • Meteoric and Togni have further agreed to work together to enable Meteoric to fully leverage the benefit of Togni’s long mining experience and extensive local commercial and regulatory contacts

  • Relationship expanded to include Togni providing significant assistance with respect to the exploration, development and permitting of the Caldeira Project, as well as the potential acquisition of neighbouring Licences prospective for Rare Earths - Parties’ interests aligned with Togni to be issued 100m Performance Shares with significant milestones on Completion

  • Due Diligence progressing very well, diamond drilling continuing, and assay results from 398 check assays samples showing excellent correlation, confirming the high-grade nature of the Caldeira Project

  • Meteoric currently building out its management and technical team in readiness for Acquisition Completion

  • Completion of the Acquisition to occur immediately following receipt of the US$17.5m for the Juruena sale on 31 March

  • Maiden JORC Mineral Resource Estimation on historic exploration data to be released in late April

Meteoric Resources NL ( Meteoric or the Company ) (ASX: MEI ) is pleased to announce that the Definitive Agreement for the acquisition of the Rare Earths ( REE ) rights comprising the Caldeira Project has been signed. The material terms of the Definitive Agreement are set out in Appendix 1.

Dr Andrew Tunks Meteoric’s Director said, “The signing of the Definitive Agreement is a significant step for Meteoric and represents several months of hard work by all parties resulting in a comprehensive document focused on the path forward for exploration and development of the Caldeira Project. In this process, Togni and Meteoric have developed extremely strong ties which now enables Meteoric to leverage Togni’s remarkable 112-year history of mining in the area to fast track our efforts.

The technical, legal and financial due diligence is proceeding very well. On the technical front, work has focused on the ongoing diamond drilling of 26 twin holes to examine the depth potential of the REE mineralisation, as well as a significant assay verification exercise where 5% of samples from the original exploration were re-assayed at an alternate laboratory. Pleasingly, the results confirm the original work was of high quality with the new results being almost identical to the original assays.

The USD$17.5 million from the sale of Juruena on 31 March will be used to complete the acquisition of the Caldeira Project, with the payment of the first US$5 million instalment to Togni. The remaining funds, together with ~AUD$7.5m of in-the-money 2023 options, ensures Meteoric is well funded to hit the ground running on the exploration and development of this truly amazing Tier 1 project. We are also working hard to attract the best Rare Earths talent to our team to drive the project towards development.

Geological modelling for the estimation of a Maiden JORC Mineral Resource for the Caldeira Project is well underway. Senior representatives of Meteoric met with the Resource Group BNA Mining Solutions in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, recently to review the work, which is progressing very well and we anticipate the Resource will be available to the market in late April”.

DUE DILIGENCE UPDATE

RE-ASSAY OF HISTORICAL DATA

Results for 398 samples including both laboratory pulps (296) and coarse auger drilling rejects (102) were selected from 23 holes representing a broad geographical representation of historic exploration ( Figure 1 ). Holes were also selected to ensure that all grade ranges were represented across the Project. Results indicate excellent correlation between old and new assays for the samples, thereby increasing confidence in the previous work.

A plot showing original samples (SGS Laboratory) verses re-assay samples (ALS Laboratory) is shown in Figure 2 and indicates no statistically significant bias between the original exploration results and Meteoric’s re-assay data. (See JORC TABLE 1 for Sample Prep and analysis methods).

APPENDIX 1 MATERIAL TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT

The material terms of the Definitive Agreement for the Acquisition of the Rare Earth Rights comprising the Caldeira Project are as follows:

Togni S/A – Materiais Refratários (and various subsidiaries and affiliates) and Etgran Mineração, Importação E Exportação De Produtos Ltda (collectively Togni ) grant Meteoric the exclusive right to explore, develop and mine the Rare Earth Minerals ( REE ) on the 30 Licences (21 Mining Licences and 9 Mining Licence Applications) that comprise the Caldeira Project.

Any Licences within a 10km radius of the outer boundary of the Caldeira Project acquired by either Meteoric or Togni shall also be subject to the terms of the Agreement.

In consideration of the grant of the exclusive right, Meteoric shall pay Togni:

  • USD$5m on or before 10 April 2023 ( Completion ), USD$5m on or before 2 April 2024, USD$5m on or before 2 April 2025 and USD$5m on or before 2 April 2026, which amounts are deemed to be advance payments for (and therefore offset against) the Royalty; and

  • Upon production commencing, and subject to the advanced payments referred to above, a 4.75% Royalty based on the REO value, and benchmarked against the FOB-China pricing published in the Metal-Pages service provided by the Argus Metals publication ( Royalty ). In the first four years of production, Meteoric shall pay the Royalty based on a monthly minimum of 210 tons per month (being one quarter of the envisioned production subject to studies) even if production is less than this amount. From the fifth year onward Meteoric shall pay the Royalty on a monthly minimum of 420 tons per month (being half of the envisioned production subject to studies) even if production is less than this amount.

Meteoric shall expend a minimum of USD$5m on the Caldeira Project in the first two years, and USD$2.5m in subsequent years. Initial expenditure shall be focused on driving Resource growth towards Reserves as fast as possible, Metallurgical Testwork, Development Studies and Plant Design. Any annual expenditure exceeding the minimum amount shall carry over to the following years.

Togni shall do all things necessary to assist Meteoric in perfecting its title to the REE.

Eight of the thirty Licences are held by a third party, with Togni holding, amongst other things, the rights to the REE on these eight Licences. Meteoric acknowledges that it may be required from time to time to adjust or revise its proposed exploration, development and production programs to avoid interference with the third parties pre-existing exploration and mineral mining rights. It is noted that none of the eight Licences form part of the area in which Meteoric intends to initially explore, develop and produce.

Meteoric shall commence production within four years, failing which it shall make Royalty payments of USD$600,000 per month, which amounts are deemed to be advance payments for (and therefore offset against) the Royalties. If after eight years Meteoric has not commenced production then the Agreement shall terminate.

The Agreement contains standard representations and warranties.

The Agreement is legally binding and governed by the laws of Brazil.

Meteoric and Togni have agreed to work together so as to enable Meteoric to fully leverage the benefit of Togni’s long mining experience and extensive local commercial and regulatory contacts. Togni have agreed to provide every assistance to Meteoric with respect to exploration and development of the Caldeira Project, securing all licences, permits and any other form of permission required to enable Meteoric to explore, develop and mine the Caldeira Project as quickly and efficiently as possible, and seeking to expand the footprint of the Caldeira Project via the potential acquisition of neighboring Licences prospective for Rare Earths. In consideration of this invaluable assistance and so as to align the parties’ interests going forward, Meteoric has agreed to issue to Togni 100m Performance Shares at completion and pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 in the following tranches and subject to the following milestones:

APPENDIX 2 JORC Table 1

Section 1. Sampling Techniques and Data (Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

Criteria Commentary
Sampling techniques  Holes were sampled using a powered auger drill rig (open hole). Each drill site was cleaned,
removing leaves and roots at the surface. Tarps were placed on either side of the hole and
samples of soil and saprolite where collected every 1m of advance, logged, photographed
with subsequent bagging of the sample in plastic bags.
Drilling techniques  Powered auger drilling was employed. All holes are vertical and 4 inch in diameter. The
maximum depth achievable with the powered auger was 20m, and this was only
achievable if the hole did not encounter fragments of rocks/boulders etc. sitting within
the weathered profile, and / or the water table.
Drill sample recovery  Auger sample recovery calculated as length of sample recovered per interval drilled.
 Generally, within range of 75% to 100%.
Logging  For every 1m drilled, the material was described in a drilling bulletin, and photographed.
 The sample description is made according to the tactile-visual characteristics, such
as material (soil, colluvium, saprolite, rock fragments); material color; predominant
particle size; presence of moisture; indicator minerals; extra observations. If the
water level is reached, it will also be described.
Sub-sampling  The auger drill samples underwent a physical preparation process:
techniques and sample o
Samples were weighted.
preparation o
If the samples were wet, they were dried for several days on rubber mats.
o
Samples when dried were passed through a screen (5mm).
o
Homogenization occurs by agitation in bags, followed by screening to <3mm.
o
Fragments of rock or hardened clay that were retained in the sieves were
fragmented with a 10kg manual disintegrator and a 1kg hammer, until 100% of the
sample passed through the screening.
o
The sample was homogenized again by agitation in bags.
o
Sample then passed through a Jones 12 channel splitter, where 500g was
send to the lab (SGS geosol laboratory in Vespasiano – Minas Gerais).
o
Remaining samples were placed in 20 litre plastic buckets, clearly labelled by
hole ID and depth, and stored on site.
o
For re-assay the pulps were send directly to ALS Geochemistry laboratory in
Vespasiano – Minas Gerais.
o
For re-assay of the coarse rejects were prepared on-site by splitting into four
quarters from which 150 to 200g was collected from each quarter before sending
to ALS Geochemistry laboratory in Vespasiano – Minas Gerais.
 All samples had registered identification that was captured on internal control
spreadsheets. This identification was linked to the name of the hole and interval
to which the sample belonged.
Quality of assay data  Each batch analysed at SGS Geosol laboratory are composed of 43 samples, 37 of which
and laboratory tests belong to exploration intervals and 6 were QAQC` samples (duplicate, blank and standards).
 Duplicate samples were predetermined and identified in the splitting phase with two
samples, ~ 500g, receiving different identifications. Blank samples consisted of milky quartz,
two blank samples (100g each) were inserted into each batch. Two standard samples were
also inserted into each batch.
 After the physical preparation of the samples at Plant 2, in Poços de Caldas, batches with 43
samples were sent to the SGS-Geosol laboratory, located in Vespasiano – MG for splitting of
the natural sample into a Jones type splitter to remove an aliquot and later, pulverized in a
steel mill, 95% minus 150 mesh.
 The analytical methodologies used were identified by the codes IMS95A (determination by
fusion with lithium metaborate - ICP MS).
 For fusion with lithium metaborate, graphite crucibles were used, in which initially 0.5 g of
lithium metaborate, 0.1 g of pulverized sample and another 0.5 g of lithium metaborate were
inserted. Heated up to 950 °C. Molten content was placed in beaker with 100ml solution of
2% tartaric acid (C4H6O6), 10% nitric acid (HNO3) and 88% purified water for
homogenization.
 Two aliquots of 15ml each were transferred to test tubes and were sent for ICP analysis
(analytical referenceIMS95A).

Verification ofsampling and assaying Re-assay

  • After the physical preparation of the samples in Poços de Caldas,

  • Two batches, one with 294 pulp samples and another with 102 coarse reject samples were sent to ALS Geochemistry laboratory in Vespasiano – Minas Gerais for CRU-31 (fine crushing 85% passing through 2mm screen), SPL-21 (splitting the samples using a riffle splitter, PULP-31 (pulversising 285g, 85 passing through a 75 micron screen) and SPL-34 (splitting for the various analysis methods).

  • The analytical methodologies used were identified by the codes ME-MS81[TM] (determination by fusion with lithium metaborate - ICP MS) and ICM655 (2% ammonium sulfate leaching and reading by ICP OES / ICP MS).

  • For fusion with lithium metaborate, graphite crucibles were used, in which initially 0.5 g of lithium metaborate, 0.1 g of pulverised sample and another 0.5 g of lithium metaborate were inserted. Heated up to 950°C. Molten content was placed in a beaker with 100ml solution of 2% tartaric acid (C4H6O6), 10% nitric acid (HNO3) and 88% purified water for homogenization. Two aliquots with 15ml each were transferred to test tubes and then sent for ICP analysis (analytical reference MEMS81[TM] ).

  • There has been no adjustment to the REE assay results other than the accepted factors applied to report.

  • Location of data  All holes were picked up by Nortear Topografia e Projectos Ltda., planialtimetric topographic points surveyors. The GPS South Galaxy G1 RTK GNSS was used, capable of carrying out data surveys and kinematic locations in real time (RTK-Real Time Kinematic), consisting of two GNSS receivers, a BASE and a ROVER. The horizontal accuracy, in RTK, is 8mm + 1ppm, and vertical 15mm + 1ppm.

  • The coordinates were provided in the following formats: Sirgas 2000 datum, and UTM WGS 84 datum - georeferenced to spindle 23S.

  • For the generation of planialtimetric maps (DEM), drones were used to control points in the field (mainly in a region with more dense vegetation), in addition to the auger drillholes.

Data spacing  Hole spacing varies across the prospects from a maximum of: 200m by 200m, infill drilled to
and distribution 100m by 100m in some areas, with tighter spacing of 50m by 50m in the closest space areas.
 Given the substantial geographic extent and generally shallow, flat lying geometry of the
mineralisation, the spacing and orientation are considered sufficient to establish the geologic
and grade continuity.
 Samples were not composited.
Orientation of  The mineralisation is flat lying and occurs within the saprolite/clay zone of a deeply

structure  As such, no sampling bias was believed to be introduced.
Sample security  Samples were removed from the field and transported back to Plant 2 sample preparation and
sample storage facility of Togni SA Materiais Refratarios where they were checked and
organised on wooden pallets in a covered shed. After checking, all samples were weighed then
the samples underwent a physical preparation process including: drying, sieving,
homogenisation, and finally splitting before being packed in plastic bags, packed into batches of
43 samples, and despatched to SGS-Geosol for analysis.
 The remaining samples were stored in 20 ltr plastic buckets, labelled with the name of the
target, the hole name and sampled intervals. Samples were securely locked up in the storage
shed.

Geology The Alkaline Complex of Poços de Caldas represents in Brazil one of the most important geological
terrains which hosts deposits of: bauxite, clay, uranium, zirconium, rare earths and leucite. The different
types of mineralisation are products of a history of post-magmatic alteration and weathering in the last
stages of its evolution (Schorscher & Shea, 1992; Ulbrich et al., 2005), described below:
1.
Deuteric post-magmatic alteration and incipient hydrothermal alteration: potassium
metasomatism and zeolitization and, subordinately, formation of clays under oxidizing
conditions, with hematitization and hydrated iron oxides;
2.
Hydrothermal alteration: pyritisation, strong potassium metasomatism, mobilization and
concentration of U, Th, ETR, Zr and Mo;
3.
Emplacement of mafic-ultramafic dikes (lamprophyres);
4.
Development of lateritic surface and extensive saprolitization of the massif, supergene
remobilization and precipitation of uranium concentrations.
5.
The REE mineralisation focused on in this release is of the Ionic Clay type as evidenced by
development within the saprolite/clay zone of the weathering profile of the Alkaline granite
basement as well as enriched HREE composition.
Drill hole Drill hole information for all 1,396 powered auger holes drilled by previous explorers is presented
Information in previous release.
Data Previous release lists Mineralised Intercepts for all powered auger holes drilled by previous
aggregation explorers. For simplicity the mineralised intercepts reported are a weighted average grade of
methods the entire drill hole. No top- cuts have been employed and no restriction on the amount of
internal dilution. Inspection of the assay table shows there are only 26 samples of 12,964 total
samples which are <500 ppm TREO, therefore it is effectively a 500ppm bottom cut.
No Metal Equivalents are used.
Relationship The mineralisation is flat lying (reflecting topography and weathering) and occurs within the
saprolite/clay zone of a deeply developed regolith. As the drilling is vertical, down hole intervals
are assumed to be true widths.
