Barrambie Gold Project (Neometals 100%)

Background

The Barrambie Gold Project is highly prospective for gold mineralisation and is located within Neometals’ 505 square kilometre tenure, which contains approximately 40km strike of Greenstone Belt. Minimal gold exploration has occurred since the 1980s with Neometals only commencing gold exploration activities in the second half of 2024.

==> picture [426 x 345] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 1 – Plan showing favourable location of Barrambie Gold Project relative to other gold producers and developers in the Murchison region

The potential for high-tenor gold mineralisation is demonstrated by several historic mining sites, with an average production grade of 24.8g/t[5] , and based on historic drill data, a gold Exploration Target for the Barrambie Project has been estimated at between 8Mt at 1.3g/t Au and 10.5Mt at 2.3g/t Au, for 335k and

775k ounces[5] . While the Company reported a 13,000 ounce Au Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (“ MRE ”) in respect of the Ironclad deposit[6] , this did not result in any modifications to the gold Exploration Target for the Barrambie. Neometals considers the Barrambie Gold Project to have the potential to host multiple gold occurrences and has resumed gold exploration for the first time in over 20 years, with a view to advancing and growing existing and new targets.

Activity Summary

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT- EXPLORATION TARGET

The Competent Person cautions that the potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target are conceptual in nature and insufficient gold exploration has been undertaken to support estimation of a gold Mineral Resource for the Barrambie Project (notwithstanding the initial Ironclad Inferred MRE[2] ) and that there is no certainty that future exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.

The Competent Person further cautions that exploration data relied on for this Exploration Target is based on activity undertaken by previous historical operators and have not or may not have been previously reported under the JORC Code or any of its precedents and the Competent Person considers that these data are indicative and not absolute measures of the presence of gold mineralisation.

During the quarter, the results of 760m diamond drilling (completed at the Ironclad deposit and at the Mystery prospect in the previous quarter) were announced[1] . Figure 2 below shows the location of the seven diamond holes drilled at the Ironclad deposit and significant drill intercepts.

ASX Announcement : 28 October 2025 Quarterly Activities Report

==> picture [34 x 34] intentionally omitted <==

All objectives of the drilling were achieved, that is: to verify higher-grade zones and to gain new knowledge regarding the nature of mineralisation, key structural associations and controls within the Ironclad Inferred MRE. At the Mystery prospect, the objective was to verify the continuation of mineralisation below underground workings as indicated by sparse historic drilling.

Also announced were the historical assay data for 61 reverse circulation (“RC”) drill holes at the Ironclad deposit which were sourced from archives of previously unreported internal company documents, adding 2,271 gold assays to the project dataset.[2] This is a valuable and material addition, equivalent to an increase of approximately 25% of the number of holes and assays in the Ironclad dataset and will be extremely helpful in informing future MRE updates and continued Mineral Resource extension drilling. Figure 3 illustrates the location of additional historic assays.

==> picture [426 x 257] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 3 - Ironclad deposit plan view showing geology, location of 2025 Ironclad Inferred MRE[6] and location of drill holes with additional historic assay data.

Further, a Mining Lease application was lodged over the Ironclad deposit, advertised and is currently in Native Title negotiation process. Metallurgical test work and waste rock characterisation has also commenced.

Next steps for the Barrambie Project include completion of 8,300m RC drilling which is currently underway[7] .

The scope of the current programme includes:

  • An Initial programme at the Golden Treasure historic high-grade gold mine which produced 15,326 ounces at 29.4 g/t Au[5] ;

  • Testing of mineralisation along the Barrambie Ranges gold trend;

  • Further testing of the Mystery gold trend, following-up recent drill results below the historic mine (10.2m at 2.72g/t Au from 83.3m, including 1.45m at 8.97g/t Au[1] ) and;
