Extension to LOI for Ironclad Development
Neometals Ltd (ASX: NMT) (“ Neometals ” or “ the Company ”) advises that it has agreed a 30-day extension to the 90-day exclusivity period under the non-binding Letter of Intent (“ LOI ”) with BML Ventures Pty Ltd (“ BMLV ”) for the proposed development of the Ironclad Deposit at its 100% owned Barrambie Gold Project, as originally announced on 11 December 2025.[1 ]
Since entering into the LOI, Neometals has continued to advance its key technical and approvals workstreams for the Ironclad Deposit including an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Ironclad Gold Deposit.[2] The short extension will allow BMLV to finalise its commercial and technical due diligence while Neometals completes an internal Scoping Study for Ironclad.
The parties have continued to advance the drafting of definitive joint venture documentation consistent with the LOI, which they expect to execute before the end of the extension period. All other terms of the LOI remain unchanged.
Authorised on behalf of Neometals by Christopher Reed, Managing Director.
