SIGNIFICANT RESOURCE UPGRADE AT WAGGA TANK

KEY POINTS:

Drilling success has delivered an updated pit-constrained Indicated/Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate at Peel’s 100%-owned Wagga Tank deposit:

  • Wagga Tank pit constrained MRE of 3.56Mt at 0.59% Cu, 0.63g/t Au, 33g/t Ag, 0.64% Pb and 0.70% Zn (1.82% CuEq[1] ) .

  • Open Pit MRE contains approximately 21.1kt Cu, 72.5koz Au, 3.77Moz Ag, 22.9kt Pb, and 24.9kt Zn.

  • Updated Wagga Tank-Southern Nights MRE increased to 9.99Mt at 0.35% Cu, 0.41 g/t Au, 52 g/t Ag, 1.19% Pb and 2.78% Zn .

  • Updated global resource base increased to 22.91Mt at 1.03% Cu, 0.37g/t Au, 35g/t Ag, 0.72% Pb and 1.45% Zn

  • Global MRE contains approximately 235kt Cu, 271koz Au, 25.4Moz Ag, 166kt Pb, and 331kt Zn.

PEEL MINING TECHNICAL DIRECTOR ROB TYSON COMMENTED:

“Delineating a pit-constrained resource at Wagga Tank is a great outcome for the Company with approximately 21,100 tonnes copper, 72,500 ounces gold and 3.77 million ounces silver as well as significant lead and zinc defined within open pittable depths.

Importantly, the open pit resource has potential to transform Peel’s future mine development plans, offering a lower capital development cost than the current Pre-Feasibility Study work which assumes both Mallee Bull and Wirlong are developed as underground mines supplying ore to a new milling complex.

Work will continue at Wagga Tank including infill and metallurgical drilling and metallurgical testwork to optimise processing options.

Following the success at Wagga Tank, a review of gold and copper mineralisation associated with the Wagga Tank / Southern Nights area has identified several new targets for gold and copper exploration drilling.

These areas along with the nearby Nombinnie gold prospect will be investigated for their potential to add further near surface mineralisation.”

WAGGA TANK MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE

Peel Mining Ltd ( ASX Code: PEX ) ( “Peel” or “the Company” ) is pleased to report a new, pit constrained Indicated & Inferred Mineral Resource Estimates (MRE) for its 100% owned Wagga Tank deposit, centred around 130km south of Cobar in Western NSW.

The MRE for the Wagga Tank deposit, and its incorporation into the Company’s greater South Cobar Project MRE, is reported in accordance with the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (the JORC Code (2012)). The updated Wagga Tank MRE comprises Open Pit and Underground components. The Open Pit component represents estimates from a new block model reported at $A40/t and $60/t NSR cut offs within an optimal pit shell. The Underground component represents the January 2023 mineable shape (SSO) constrained Southern Nights-Wagga Tank MRE at A$80/t NSR cut-off depleted by the new Wagga Tank pit shell with no other changes to the resource model or optimal stopes.

Table 1 shows the Wagga Tank Open Pit Mineral Resource Estimate. Table 2 shows the updated combined Wagga Tank-Southern Nights Mineral Resource Estimate. Table 3 shows the updated South Cobar Project Global Mineral Resource Estimate. Table 4 is a comparison between the January 2023 Wagga Tanks-Southern Nights MRE and the updated April 2025 Wagga Tanks-Southern Nights MRE.

Note: South Cobar Project underground MREs are reported above A$80/tonne NSR cut-off and utilise mineable shapes, which include minimum mining widths and internal dilution to bound the MREs. May Day Open Pit utilised $40 and $50/t NSR cut-offs for oxide and sulphide resources respectively within an optimal pit. Wagga Tank Open Pit-constrained MRE utilised $40 and $60/t NSR cut-offs for Oxide and Transition/Fresh respectively within an optimal pit. Figures are rounded to reflect the precision of estimates and include rounding errors.

1 The CuEq calculation for Wagga Tank is based on copper, gold, silver, lead and zinc prices of A$14,458/t, A$3,647/oz, A$43.90/oz, A$3,283/t and A$4,267/t respectively. Metallurgical metal recoveries have been set for the Oxide, Transition and Fresh zones respectively as: 85/65/45% for Cu, 85/73/61% for Au, 85/81/77% for Ag, 0/39/78% for Pb, 0/45/90% for Zn. These parameters give the following formulae: Oxide: CuEq (%) = Cu (%) +(0.811 x Au (g/t) + 0.0098 x Ag (g/t); Transition: CuEq (%) = Cu (%) + 0.911 x Au (g/t) + 0.0122 x Ag (g/t) + 0.136 x Pb (%) +0.204 x Zn (%); Fresh: CuEq (%) = Cu (%) + 1.099 x Au (g/t) + 0.0167 x Ag (g/t) + 0.394 x Pb (%) + 0.59 x Zn (%). It is the Company’s opinion that all metals included in the copper equivalent grades have reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.

WAGGA TANK MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE – OTHER MATERIAL INFORMATION SUMMARY

A summary of other material information pursuant to ASX Listing Rules 5.8.1 is provided below for the updated Wagga Tank Open Pit Mineral Resource Estimate. The Assessment and Reporting Criteria in accordance with the 2012 JORC Code and Guidelines are presented in JORC Table 1, Sections 1 to 3 to this announcement.

GEOLOGY, GEOLOGICAL INTERPRETATION & MINERALISATION

The Southern Nights-Wagga Tank deposits are located in EL6695. Wagga Tank was discovered in 1968 by a local pastoralist while grading a fenceline and the prospect was subject to various phases of exploration until 1989 when significant work ceased. In 2016, Peel acquired the prospect with initial drilling confirming a significant mineralised system. The discovery in 2017 of the “blind” high-grade Southern Nights deposit, led to a switch of focus to the Southern end of the mineral system.

Southern Nights-Wagga Tank occur within the Mt Kennan Volcanics and comprises a package of largely volcanic derived subaqueous mass-flow deposits and local coherent rhyolites that are locally informally termed Vivigani Formation. These volcanic rocks are contained within deep water, rhythmically bedded turbidite facies shales, siltstones and sandstones that are referred to as underlying Eastern Formation and overlying Wagga Tank Formation. Metamorphic grade is lower greenschist facies and the area is of low strain, evidenced by a weak penetrative cleavage developed in turbidite facies shales.

Late early Devonian sandstones and conglomerates (Mulga Downs Group) outcrop prominently to the west of the deposit and are also believed to be locally juxtaposed against Wagga Tank Formation shales/siltstones in downfaulted blocks within the main project area. Together these units are unconformably overlain by transported sediments deposited in fluvial/lacustrine environments during the Tertiary period (McQueen, 2008) and aeolian and fluvial/sheetwash sands, gravels, clays and soils deposited throughout the Quaternary to the present day. The thickness of the Tertiary/Quaternary cover varies dramatically over the deposit from >100m at Southern Nights to areas of outcrop at Wagga Tank. A laterite profile is well developed but is commonly partly truncated.

Massive sulphide mineralisation in the Southern Nights-Wagga Tank area have been defined discontinuously over a strike length of approximately 2km at four principal locations: Wagga Tank, Link Zone, Southern Nights Central and Southern Nights South. Massive sulphide mineralisation occurs at the stratigraphic contact between the Vivigani Formation and overlying Wagga Tank Formation. This contact dips steeply WNW at Southern Nights rotating to steep NW/SE at Wagga Tank where minor overturning occurs. The contact marks a change in depositional environment that is coeval with the cessation of volcanic activity and the subsequent on-set of relative quiescence that allowed for the largely undisturbed accumulation of laminated to massive sulphides on the palaeo-seafloor. The massive sulphides are now preserved at the base of the deep-water turbidite facies shales and siltstones that are informally referred to as the Wagga Tank Formation and overlie discordant, intensely altered stockwork vein zones that are developed in the footwall permeable volcaniclastics of the Vivigani Formation.

At Wagga Tank, the contact massive sulphides have been subject to oxide and supergene weathering processes, causing enrichment of Au and depletion of Cu-Ag-Pb-Zn in the now-gossanous massive sulphides. Au is well preserved in the gossanous facies and forms the most near-surface expression of economic mineralisation at Wagga Tank.

Deeper in the weathering profile, the leached Cu-Ag has precipitated into either oxide-supergene mineralisation (i.e. malachite-azurite-cuprite) above the base of oxidation, or into sulphide-supergene mineralisation (i.e. chalcocite-covellite) below the base of oxidation.

The highest concentrations of supergene mineralisation are seen within or immediately adjacent to where the massive sulphide horizon crosses the base of oxidation. Additionally, supergene mineralisation is also seen spread laterally to the SE along this base of oxidation, stretching up to 100m from the massive sulphides.

As a result, mineralisation modelling in this MRE has been divided into Oxide, Transition and Fresh categories.

Facies analysis of the Southern Nights-Wagga Tank deposits has resulted in the identification of the Link Zone volcanic centre and multiple syn-volcanic faults that are spatially associated with stratiform massive and stockwork vein zone mineralisation. The textures and geochemistry of mineralisation and alteration at Southern Nights-Wagga Tank are strongly suggestive of a VAMS origin for mineralisation that formed during the basin rifting phase, however Pb isotope data provides a counterargument to this hypothesis and suggest an age that is consistent with the basin inversion phase. Further work is needed to resolve this issue.

Figure 1 and Figure 2 show an example cross section and long section of the simplified Wagga Tank A$40/60t Open Pit MRE and A$80/t Underground MRE extents relative to the pit shell constraining the Open Pit MRE, oxidation domains and drill traces coloured by current NSR composite values. Figure 3 shows a plan view of the drilling completed at Wagga Tank.

DRILLING TECHNIQUES

Since mineralisation was discovered at Wagga Tank in 1968, it has been owned and operated by several previous companies, including Newmont, Amoco Minerals, Homestake Australia, Cyprus Gold and Peel Mining. The table below (Wagga Tank MRE area only) sets out the companies that operated on the Project, the type, number, and metres drilled (Table 5).

Appendix A – “Significant Intercept Data – Wagga Tank” sets out in Table 9 the details of Significant Assays for Peel Mining and for Historic Drillholes used in the MRE.

Drilling completed by Peel, which comprises approximately 79% of the total drilling database, has been a combination of diamond (DDH) and reverse circulation (RC) or both (RCD). Reverse circulation drilling utilised a 5 1/2-inch diameter face sampling hammer. PQ, HQ and NQ coring was used for diamond drilling. Historic drilling, which comprises approximately 21% of the total drilling database, utilised a combination of DDH, RC or RCD. Historic DDH generally comprised NQ or HQ coring.

Drill spacing for Wagga Tank has been predominantly drilled at 40m x 40m spacing (although locally some drillholes are on a 20m x 20m spacing) on a 310/130 aligned grid.

Core drilled by Peel has been orientated predominantly using a REFLEX ACT™ system where data is stored on the controller and cannot be manipulated. Core samples were matched with orientation data using a spirit level jig. Diamond core was reconstructed into continuous runs on an angle iron cradle for orientation. Orientation quality was noted between orientation marks based on a tolerance. Any systematic failures were immediately raised with the drilling contractor.

A Garmin hand-held GPS is used to define the location of Peel’s drill holes with collars routinely picked up after drilling by DGPS. Down-hole surveys are conducted by the drill contractors using either a Reflex gyroscopic tool with readings every 10m after drill hole completion or a Reflex electronic multi-shot camera with readings for dip and magnetic azimuth taken every 30m down-hole. QA/QC in the field involves calibration using a test stand. The instrument is positioned with a stainless-steel drill rod so as not to affect the magnetic azimuth. Grid system used is MGA 94 (Zone 55). All down-hole magnetic surveys were converted to MGA94 grid. DGPS pick-up delivers adequate topographic control.

SAMPLING AND SUB-SAMPLING TECHNIQUES

The sample information used in resource estimation was derived from reverse circulation and diamond drilling. Aircore and RAB drillholes were used to assist in the geological interpretation but were excluded from the estimation. The Wagga Tank area has been subject to various drill programs, with Peel’s work accounting for the bulk of all drilling.

Peel’s diamond and reverse circulation drilling were used to obtain samples for geological logging and assaying. Diamond core was cut and sampled at 1m intervals on average or intervals determined by geological contacts. RC drill holes were sampled at 1m intervals and split using a cone splitter attached to the cyclone to generate a split of 2-4kg to ensure sample representivity.

Drill core was cut with a core saw with half core taken for analysis. The RC drilling rigs were equipped with an in-built cyclone and splitting system, which provided one bulk sample of approximately 20kg and a subsample of 2-4kg per metre drilled. All samples were split using the system described above to maximise and maintain consistent representivity. The majority of samples were dry. Bulk samples were placed in green plastic bags, with the sub-samples collected placed in calico sample bags. Field duplicates were collected by re-splitting the bulk samples from large plastic bags. These duplicates were designed for lab checks. Laboratory duplicate samples were riffle split using ALS method SPL-21d. These samples were selected by the geologist within moderate and high-grade zones. A sample size of 2-4kg was collected and considered appropriate and representative for the grain size and style of mineralisation.

SAMPLE ANALYSIS

Multi-element readings of samples in the field was by portable XRF instruments: Olympus Delta Innov-X or Olympus Vanta Analysers. Reading time for Innov-X was 20 seconds per reading with a total 3 readings per sample. Reading time for Vanta was 10 & 20 seconds per reading with 2 readings per sample. At least one daily calibration check was performed using standards and blanks to ensure the analyser was operating within factory specifications. The XRF readings are only used as indicative and assist with the geological

interpretation and selection of sample intervals for laboratory analysis. No XRF measurements are used in resource estimation.

Assay quality control procedures adopted by Peel include reference standards. Although there is some variability for individual samples, average assay results reasonably match expected values for all attributes. ALS Laboratory Services located in Orange NSW, was generally used for sample preparation, Au, and multielement analysis work. Analysis for sulphur by Leco or multi-element 4 Acid digest was undertaken at ALS Brisbane.

The laboratory preparation and analysis methods below are for all samples submitted to ALS by Peel and are considered appropriate determination of the economic minerals and styles of mineralisation defined at Wagga Tank. Sample preparation was generally undertaken at ALS Orange using the following process:

  • Crush entire sample nominal >70% passing 6mm.

  • If sample >3kg, Riffle split sample to maximum of 3.2Kg and pulverise split in LM5 to 85% passing 75µm. Retain and bag unpulverised reject (bulk master). If sample <3.2kg, entire sample is pulverised.

Routine assays were completed using either:

  • ME-ICP41 analysis, Aqua-regia digest (GEO-AR01) ICP-AES finish performed at ALS Orange. Over-limit assays were then undertaken using ME-OG46 analysis if triggered from above (i.e., Cu, Pb, Zn >1%, Ag >100ppm) Aqua-regia digest (ASY-AR01) with ICPAES finish performed in Brisbane from pulp split. Over-limit sulphur was undertaken with S-IR08 Leco Fusion (>10% S).

  • ME-ICP61 or ME-MS61, 4 acid digest (GEO-4 ACID) ICP-AES finish /ICP-MS finish performed at ALS Brisbane from pulp split. Over-limit assays were then undertaken using ME-OG62 analysis if triggered from above (i.e., Cu, Pb, Zn >1%, Ag >100ppm) 4 acid digest (ASY-4ACID) with ICP-AES finish/ ICP-MS finish performed in Brisbane from pulp split. Over-limit sulphur was undertaken with S-IR08 Leco Fusion (>10% S).

Samples with over-range assays for Ag which exceeded the upper limits of ALS analysis ME-OG62 were sent to SGS Laboratory in Perth for gravimetric analysis using the method GC_FAG38V (Control grade 30g Fire Assay with Gravimetric Finish).

QAQC samples were inserted in the form of Certified Reference Materials, blanks (sand and coarse) and duplicates. CRM and blanks were inserted at the rate of at least 1 blank and standard every 20 samples. Duplicates for percussion drilling were collected directly from the drill rig at a rate of 1 every 20 samples. The duplicate rate for drill core varies as they are selected by geologists to cover low, medium, and high-grade zones. These duplicates were split at the laboratory after the crushing stage. At a minimum there is one duplicate every 20 samples. Through high grade zones, additional blank lab wash is requested with analysis randomly selected on these washes by Peel to monitor cross contamination.

The standards generally performed well with results falling within prescribed two standard deviation limits and only random occurrences outside of these limits. The performance of the pulp and coarse blanks have been within acceptable limits with no significant evidence of cross contamination identified. ALS laboratories undertake internal QC checks to monitor performance. The results of these are available to view on ALS Webtrieve™ (an ALS online data platform).

Metallurgical testwork completed by Peel, primarily undertaken at ALS Burnie, has guided the metallurgical recoveries assigned to the Wagga Tank Pit Constrained MRE. Metallurgical samples at Wagga Tank have been taken from quarter core PQ and HQ diameter, and composited material from RC drilling. A total of 2 diamond holes plus 5 RC holes have been used for metallurgical testwork.

Work to date has comprised series of sequential and locked cycle flotation tests, as well as gravity and cyanide leach tests for gold/precious metals, and acid leach testwork for oxide copper minerals. Metallurgical testwork remains ongoing.

CUT-OFF VALUES

The Wagga Tank open pit MRE utilised A$40/t and A$60/t NSR cut-offs for Oxide and Transition/Fresh mineralisation respectively, reflecting various processing concepts relevant to the expected styles of mineralisation: oxide mineralisation is anticipated to be recovered via conventional cyanide leach (Au-Ag) and acid leach (Cu); transitional mineralisation is anticipated to be recovered by a combination of acid leach (Cu), gravity (Au), staged floatation (Cu-Pb-Zn) and cyanide leach (Au-Ag); fresh mineralisation is anticipated to be recovered by gravity (Au), staged floatation (Cu-Pb-Zn) and cyanide leach (Au-Ag).

Underground resources are reported within SSO shapes developed at A$80/t NSR cut off. The cut-off value selected for underground Mineral Resources reflects Peel’s interpretation of potential processing costs for fresh mineralisation, i.e., gravity (Au), staged floatation (Cu-Pb-Zn) and cyanide leach (Au-Ag); and conventional underground mining (long hole open stoping or similar).

The cut-offs were derived from the cost and revenue used for pit optimisation (Tables 6, 7 & 8), with appropriate rounding, to reflect interpreted potential operational practicalities.

NET SMELTER RETURN

For the reporting of the cut off values for the Wagga Tank Open Pit MRE, a Net Smelter Return (NSR) value has been used to reflect the polymetallic nature of mineralisation. NSR in A$/t, represents the potential economic value of mineralisation net of all costs after it leaves site, and was applied to each block within the block model after estimation.

Metal price assumptions were based on late 2024 Australian dollar metal consensus pricing (see Table 7).

Table 7 – Metal price assumptions used in the Wagga Tank Open Pit MRE

Commodity Assumption
A$ Copper Price $14,458 / tonne
A$ Gold Price $3,647 / ounce
A$ Silver Price $43.90 / ounce
A$ Zinc Price $4,267 / tonne
A$ Lead Price $3,283 / tonne

The NSR formula includes assumptions regarding metal prices, exchange rates, metallurgical recoveries, metal marketing terms (including payabilities and deductions/penalties), freight, smelting and refining charges, and royalties.

The NSR formula is: NSR = (metal grades x metallurgical recoveries x payabilities x A$ metal prices) less (concentrate freight and treatment charges, penalties, and royalties)

ASSESSMENT FOR REASONABLE PROSPECTS FOR EVENTUAL ECONOMIC EXTRACTION

To provide estimates with reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction consistent with JORC 2012 guidelines, the Wagga Tank Open Pit Mineral Resources was constrained within an optimal pit generated on the basis of the mining, trucking and processing costs and wall angles specified in Table 8, commodity prices in Table 7, and cut off values applied to resource block model. The MRE also assumes a 90% mining recovery.

Table 8 – Pit optimisation parameters

Oxide Transition Fresh
Mining cost ($A) Cost per bcm $12 $14 $16
Trucking + Processing + G&A cost ($A) Cost per tonne $40 $60 $60
Wall Angles Degrees 45o 50o 55o

Mining and processing costs were benchmarked against other Australian operations, and Peel’s assessment of recent industry costs. Open pit resources represent model estimates for oxide and transition/fresh material within the pit shell at NSR cut-off grades of A$40 and A$60/t respectively. The commodity prices are consensus derived pricing from late 2024.

The optimal pit extends over around 460 metres of strike with a maximum with of around 430 metres and reaches with a maximum depth of around 240 metres as shown in Figures 1 and 2.

The Wagga Tank underground MRE excludes mineralisation within the optimal pit shell but no changes to the previous underground mining assumptions have occurred in relation to the underground MRE.

The modifying factors (including metallurgical recoveries, mining recovery, metal pricing, NSR, and mining and processing costs) incorporated in the Wagga Tank Open Pit MRE underpin Peel’s opinion that all of the economic metals included have reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction.

OTHER MODIFYING FACTORS

The Cobar region has a long history of base and precious metals mining and there are not expected to be any environmental or land access issues that would prevent conventional open-pit mining or the construction of waste dumps.

WAGGA TANK OPEN PIT ESTIMATION METHODOLOGY & RESOURCE MODELLING

The block model informing open pit mineral resources is based on two metre down-hole composited assay grades from RC and diamond drilling available for the project in February 2025 as extracted from Peel’s master Geobank Database.

Subset to the general Wagga Tank area, the compiled database informing the estimates, which excludes six historic holes with limited assay coverage totals 71 RC and diamond holes for 22,626 metres of drilling including 26 RC holes for 4,169 metres drilled during 2024.

Mineral resources are primarily informed by data from Peel RC and diamond drilling which respectively provide around 63% and 23% of estimation dataset mineralised domain composites within the pit shell constraining mineral resources. Combined Homestake and Newmont RC and diamond drilling contribute around 1% and 13% respectively.

Modelling domains comprise oxidation surface interpretations provided by Peel, mineralised domains interpreted by Matrix with reference to interpretation by Peel geologists and a surface representing the base of surficial soils and clays interpreted by Matrix, which ranges from around 0.50 metres thick in the mineralised zone to locally around 7 metres in peripheral areas.

The oxidation domains comprise an oxide zone, which, within the resource pit shell averages around 80 metres thick, underlain by a transition zone averaging around 60 metres thick with fresh rock occurring at an average depth of around 150 metres.

The mineralised domains comprise a NE (035) trending, subvertical envelope capturing continuous zones of composited copper equivalent grades of greater than approximately 0.1%, which is subdivided into a generally higher grade, more continuously mineralised contact zone, and an eastern domain of more variable, commonly lower grade mineralisation, which is commonly not developed within the oxide zone. The contact zone is consistent with, and somewhat wider than mineralised domain utilised for underground resource modelling.

The combined mineralised envelope is interpreted over around 470 metres of strike and extends from the base of surficial material to around 560 metres depth. The contact zone averages around 23 metres thick, with horizontal widths of the eastern zone averaging around 30 metres.

The open pit block model comprises 10 metres by 20 metres by 5 metres (X,Y,Z) parent blocks aligned with the 035 trending mineralised domains. Parent block dimensions were selected on the basis of sample spacing in the more closely drilled portions of the deposit and were sub-blocked to minimum dimensions of 2.5 metres by 10 metres by 1.25 metres for precise representation of domain boundaries. Copper, gold, silver, lead and zinc grades estimated by Ordinary Kriging of two metre down hole composited assay grades within the mineralised domain with upper cuts selected by mineralisation and oxidation zone and generally approximating the 99.5th percentile of each dataset. For oxide portions of the eastern zone composites show generally low zinc grades and zinc grades for this zone, which does not contribute to Mineral Resources were estimated without upper cuts.

The Ordinary Kriging employed eight, progressively relaxed search passes with ellipsoids aligned with mineralised domain orientations The (cross strike, strike, down dip) radii and minimum data requirements of these search ellipsoids were respectively as follows 10 by 20 by 10 metres (8 data), 15 by 30 by 15 metres (8 data), 15 by 40 by 20 metres (8 data), 15 by 60 by 30 metres ((8 data), 15 by 60 by 30 metres (8 data), 15 by 60 by 30 (4 data) metres, 45 by 135 by 135 (4 data), metres, 45 by 135 by 135 metres (2 data). Blocks informed by search passes 1 to 3 provide the majority of combined Indicated Mineral Resources (92%) with search pass 3 informing 3%. Blocks informed by search passes 1 to 5 inform 97.3% of Inferred Mineral Resources with search pass 6 and 7 blocks providing 2.3 and 0.4% respectively. Search pass 8 does not inform Mineral Resources.

Oxide zone model blocks were assigned a density of 2.50 t/bcm on the basis of immersion density measurements of diamond core for this zone. Densities were assigned to transition and fresh model blocks by Ordinary Kriging of drill hole composites with density values assigned to composites from immersion measurements or density versus sulphur functions for composites without density measurements and with sulphur assays. For a comparatively small portion of the Wagga Tank mineralised envelope where diamond core shows numerous cavities and low-recoveries, assigned densities were factored by 40% reflecting average core-recoveries for this zone. The un-mineralised surficial zone which does not inform mineral resources was assigned a density of 1.8 t/bcm on the basis of the competent person’s experience of similar material.

The optimal pit used to constrain the Open Pit Mineral Resources was generated on the basis of block NSR values and conceptual cost and revenue, and mining parameters described in Table. It extends over around 460 metres of strike with a maximum with of around 430 metres and reaches with a maximum depth of around 240 metres.

Open pit resources represent model estimates for oxide and transition/fresh material within the pit shell at NSR cut-off grades of A$40 and A$60/t respectively. This approach is considered appropriate for providing estimates with reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction consistent with JORC 2012 guidelines.

The open pit resources include copper equivalent grades base on copper, gold, silver, lead and zinc prices of A$14,458/t, A$3,647/oz, A$43.90/oz, A$3,283/t and A$4,267/t respectively. Metallurgical metal recovery assumptions for the Oxide, Transition and Fresh zones are 85/65/45% for Cu, 85/73/61% for Au, 85/81/77% for Ag, 0/39/78% for Pb, 0/45/90% for Zn, and are based on metallurgical testwork completed at ALS Burnie. In the Company’s opinion that all elements included in the copper equivalent grades have reasonable potential to be recovered and sold. Copper contributes the most metal to the equivalent calculation. These parameters give the following formulae:

www.peelmining.com.au

Page 14

==> picture [596 x 75] intentionally omitted <==

Oxide: CuEq (%) = Cu (%) + 0.811 x Au (g/t) + 0.0098 x Ag (g/t) Transition: CuEq (%) = Cu (%) + 0.911 x Au (g/t) + 0.0122 x Ag (g/t) + 0.136 x Pb (%) + 0.204 x Zn (%) Fresh: CuEq (%) = Cu (%) + 1.099 x Au (g/t) + 0.0167 x Ag (g/t) + 0.394 x Pb (%) + 0.59 x Zn (%)

The Mineral resources make no allowance for recovery of lead and zinc for the oxide zone and lead and zinc estimates for this zone do not inform Mineral Resources.

Micromine software was used for data compilation, calculating and coding of composite values. GS3M was used for Kriging, and the estimates were then imported into a Micromine block model for pit optimisations and reporting.

OPEN PIT RESOURCE CLASSIFICATION

Classifications assigned to open pit resources reflect confidence in the reliability of the informing data, interpreted mineralisation continuity for each mineralised domain and drill hole spacing.

Indicated mineral resources are extrapolated to a maximum of around 20 metres from drilling with around 95% within 15 metres of drilling. Inferred mineral resources are extrapolated to a maximum of around 50 metres from drilling with around 93% within 30 metres of drilling.

Model blocks are classified as Indicated and Inferred by estimation search pass and cross-sectional polygons outlining areas of relative consistently spaced drilling. The classification approach assigns estimate for transition and fresh contact zone blocks tested by drilling spaced at around 30 by 30 metres and closer to the Indicated category with estimates for more broadly sampled zones, and all of the eastern mineralised domain and oxide zone, for which mineralisation is less well-structured classified as Inferred.

Indicated Mineral Resources are based on drilling spaced at around 30 by 30 metres and locally closer extrapolated to a maximum of around 20 metres from drilling with around 95% within 15 metres of drilling. Inferred Mineral Resources comprise estimates for the Main mineralised domain tested by drilling spaced at generally between around 30 by 30 metres and 60 by 60 metres and all estimates for the east domain which are based on drill spacing ranging from around 30 by 30 metres to rarely 100 metre spacing. Inferred Mineral resources are extrapolated to a maximum of around 50 metres from drilling. Around 93% within 30 metres of drilling.

SOUTHERN NIGHTS-WAGGA TANK UNDERGROUND ESTIMATION METHODOLOGY & RESOURCE MODELLING

The combined Southern Nights-Wagga Tank resource models informing underground resources are unchanged from those used for reporting Mineral Resources in January 2023. They include block models constructed for Southern Nights and Wagga Tank respectively with the Wagga Tank model rotated 35[o] from north-south reflecting general mineralised trends in this area. The models are based on 88,037 metres of RC and diamond drilling as extracted from Peel’s master Geobank Database, predominantly completed by Peel from the project’s acquisition in 2016 to 2022, Additional drilling undertaken since that time does not intersect the underground resource volume.

The models are based on sampling information and an oxidation surface interpretation provided by Peel and mineralised domains interpreted by Matrix with oversight by Peel. The mineralised domains capture

www.peelmining.com.au

Page 15

==> picture [596 x 75] intentionally omitted <==

continuous drill hole intervals with NSR values of nominally greater than A$60/t with lower grade intercepts included for continuity. These domains comprise main contact zones at Southern Nights and Wagga Tank and one main and four subsidiary eastern zones at Southern Nights. The Southern Nights contact zone includes three internal zones capturing higher grade, massive sulphide mineralisation.

For each block model zinc, lead, copper, gold and silver grades were estimated by Ordinary Kriging of generally 1m down-hole composited assays from RC and diamond drilling within mineralised domains. Densities were estimated by Ordinary Kriging with density values assigned to composites from immersion measurements or sulphur and zinc versus density functions for intervals without density measurements. Zinc, lead and silver grades, which are strongly positively correlated with density, were estimated by Kriging accumulation variables and metal grades back calculated. Copper and gold grades were directly Kriged.

Composites were assigned density values from immersion density measurements where available. The remaining composites were assigned densities from sulphur versus density functions or less commonly zinc versus density functions.

Estimation of each attribute included upper cuts selected on a domain-by-domain basis which generally approximate the 99th percentile of each dataset. These upper cuts reduce the impact of a small number of outlier composite grades. The combined estimation dataset comprises 3,992 composites of which most (85%) are from diamond drilling, and comparatively few (6%) are from historic holes drilled by previous tenement holders.

Attribute values were Kriged into parent blocks of 1 metre by 10 metres by 10 metres and the parent cells were sub-blocked to minimum dimensions of 0.5 metre by 2.0 metres by 2.0m metres for precise representation of domain volumes. Parent block dimensions were selected on the basis of the commonly narrow mineralised domains, sample lengths and drill spacing. The northing and elevation dimensions approximate half the drill intercept spacing in closely drilled portions of the mineralisation.

UNDERGROUND RESOURCE CLASSIFICATION

Classifications assigned to underground resources reflect confidence in the reliability of the informing data, interpreted mineralisation continuity and drill hole spacing. Estimates with consistently 40 metres by 40 metres and closer spaced drilling were classified as Indicated, and estimates tested by up to approximately 80 metres by 80 metres spaced drilling, extrapolated to around 40m from drill hole intercepts were assigned to the Inferred category. For Mineral Resource reporting, the underground block model is constrained within optimal stope shapes generated at A$80/t NSR cut-off with small peripheral zones excluded and trimmed below the optimal pit shell constraining open pit resources.

APPENDIX B – JORC CODE (2012 Edition) – Table 1 Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data

CRITERIA JORC CODE EXPLANATION COMMENTARY
Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (eg 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.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure
sample
representivity
and
the
appropriate
calibration of any measurement tools or systems
used.
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.
Peel Mining
Diamond and reverse circulation (RC) drilling were
used to obtain samples for geological logging and
assaying.
Diamond core was cut and sampled at 1m intervals on
average or intervals determined by geological
contacts. RC drill holes were sampled at 1m intervals
and split using a cone splitter attached to the cyclone
to generate a split of 2-4kg to ensure sample
representivity.
Multi-element readings were taken of the diamond
core and RC drill chips using an Olympus Delta Innov-
X portable XRF machine or an Olympus Vanta portable
XRF machine. Portable XRF machines are routinely
serviced,
calibrated
and
checked
against
blanks/standards.
Metallurgical samples at Wagga Tank have been taken
from quarter core PQ and HQ diameter, and
composited material from RC drilling. A total of 2
diamond holes plus 5 RC holes have been used for
metallurgical testwork.
Historic Explorers
Historic drilling referenced in this announcement
comprised percussion, RC and/or diamond.
Information regarding historic drilling has been taken
from original reports as per Table 13 “References to
Historic Explorers’ Drill Results”.
Drilling was completed between 1980 and 1989.
Sample weight, quality, collection method and
condition varied by company. It is assumed samples
were dispatched using industry standard chain of
custody documents to track samples.
Sample methods and sampling intervals / composites
varied by company. Standard industry sampling and
lab techniques were used. Anomalous composite
results were often followed up and some companies
did someQAQC re-assaying.
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).
Peel Mining
Drilling to date has been a combination of diamond
and reverse circulation. Reverse circulation drilling
utilised a 5 1/2-inch diameter hammer. PQ, HQ and NQ
coring was used for diamond drilling.
Core has been orientated predominantly using a
REFLEX ACT™ system where data is stored on the

controller and cannot be manipulated. Core samples
were matched with orientation data using a spirit level
jig. Diamond core was reconstructed into continuous
runs on an angle iron cradle for orientation.
Orientation quality was noted between orientation
marks based on a tolerance. Systematic failures were
immediately raised with the drilling contractor.
Historic Explorers
Historical drilling varied from RC, percussion, RAB to
diamond drilling. Bit sizes varied by company but
generally included HQ and NQ diamond holes.
Information regarding drilling data has been taken
from original reports as per Table 13 “References to
Historic Explorers’ Drill Results” included in this
release.
Drill sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing core and chip
sample recoveries and results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and
ensure 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.
Peel Mining
Core recoveries were recorded by the drillers in the
field at the time of drilling and checked by a geologist
or technician.
RC samples were not weighed on a regular basis, but
no significant sample recovery issues have been
encountered in drilling programs to date.
Diamond core was reconstructed into continuous runs
on an angle iron cradle for orientation marking and
depths are checked against the depths recorded on
core blocks. Rod counts were routinely undertaken by
drillers.
When poor sample recovery was encountered during
drilling, the geologist and driller endeavoured to

30g Fire Assay with Gravimetric Finish).
Assaying of samples in the field was by portable XRF
instruments: Olympus Delta Innov-X or Olympus Vanta
Analysers. Reading time for Innov-X was 20 seconds
per reading with a total 3 readings per sample.
Reading time for Vanta was 10 & 20 seconds per
reading with 2 readings per sample. At least one daily
calibration check was performed using standards and
blanks to ensure the analyser was operating within
factory specifications. The XRF readings are only used
as indicative and assist with the selection of sample
intervals for laboratory analysis.
QAQC samples were inserted in the form of Certified
Reference Materials, blanks (sand and coarse) and
duplicates. CRM and blanks were inserted at the rate
of at least 1 blank and standard every 20 samples.
Duplicates for percussion drilling were collected
directly from the drill rig at a rate of 1 every 20
samples. The duplicate rate for drill core varies as they
are selected by geologists to cover low, medium, and
high-grade zones. These duplicates were split at the
laboratory after the crushing stage. At a minimum
there is one duplicate every 20 samples. Through high
grade zones, additional blank lab wash is requested
with analysis randomly selected on these washes by
Peel to monitor cross contamination.

Geological
interpretation
Confidence in (or conversely, the uncertainty of) the
geological interpretation of the mineral deposit.
Nature of the data used and of any assumptions
made.
The effect, if any, of alternative interpretations on
Mineral Resource estimation.
The use of geology in guiding and controlling
Mineral Resource estimation.
The factors affecting continuity both of grade and
geology.
The majority of the Southern Nights-Wagga Tank
area is overlain by surficial cover, with only minor
bedrock exposures in the Wagga Tank area.
Geological interpretation is primarily based on
geological logging of diamond and RC drill holes.
The geological stratigraphic model built for the
Maiden MRE in June 2019, was built utilising 385 drill
holes within the Wagga Tank deposit and 381 drill
holes (inclusive of RAB) within the Southern Nights
deposit. Due to the infill nature of the recent Mineral
Resource drilling the geological stratigraphic model
was reviewed and updated for the current Wagga
Tank MRE.
The base of surficial soils and clays ranges from
around 0.50 m thick in the mineralised zone to locally
around 7 m in peripheral areas. The oxide zone,
which, within the resource pit shell averages around
80 m thick, is underlain by a transition zone
averaging around 60 m thick with fresh rock
occurring at an average depth of around 150 m.
Open pit resource modelling incorporates a NE
(035) trending, subvertical envelope capturing
continuous zones of composited copper equivalent
grades of greater than approximately 0.1 g/t, which
is subdivided into a generally higher grade, more
continuously mineralised contact zone, and an
eastern domain of more variable, commonly lower
grade mineralisation, which is commonly not
developed within the oxide zone. The contact zone is
consistent
with,
and
somewhat
wider
than
mineralised
domain
utilised
for
underground
resource modelling and is proximal to the contact
between the volcaniclastic breccias and sandstones
of the Vivigani Formation and overlying Wagga Tank
Mudstone.
Dimensions The extent and variability of the Mineral Resource
expressed as length (along strike or otherwise), plan
width, and depth below surface to the upper and
lower limits of the Mineral Resource.
The combined mineralised envelope used for open
pit resource modelling is interpreted over around
470 m of strike and extends from the base of surficial
material to around 560 m depth. The contact zone
averages around 23 m thick, with horizontal widths
of the eastern zone averagingaround 30 m.

oxidation zone and generally approximating the
99.5thpercentile of each dataset. For the oxide
eastern zone zinc composite grades, which do not
directly contribute to estimated resources are
generally low grade (averaging 0.03%) and this zone
was estimated without upper cuts.
Upper cuts were applied to oxide, transition and
fresh portions respectively of the eastern zone as
follows:

Cu %: 1.4,3.0 and 2.4

Au g/t: 3.5,30 and 2.5

Zn %: 0.4,2.5 and 6.6

Description of how the geological interpretation was
used to control the resource estimates.
Resource modelling incorporates
a NE (035)
trending, subvertical envelope capturing continuous
zones of composited copper equivalent grades of
greater than approximately 0.1 g/t, which is
subdivided into a generally higher grade, more
continuously mineralised contact zone, and an
eastern domain of more variable, commonly lower
grade mineralisation, which is commonly not
developed within the oxide zone. The domains were
subdivided by oxidation zone for assignment of
upper cuts. These domains are consistent with
geological understanding.
Discussion of basis for using or not using grade
cutting or capping.
Estimation of metal grades generally included upper
cuts
selected
by
mineralisation
domain
and
oxidation zone and generally approximating the
99.5th percentile of each dataset. For the oxide
eastern zone zinc composite grades, which do not
directly contribute to estimated resources are
generally low grade (averaging 0.03%) and this zone
was estimated without upper cuts. These upper cuts
reduce the impact of a small number of outlier
composite grades.
The process of validation, the checking process
used, the comparison of model data to drill hole
data, and use of reconciliation data if available.
Model validation included visual comparison of
model estimates and composite grades, and trend
(swath) plots.
Moisture Whether the tonnages are estimated on a dry basis
or with natural moisture, and the method of
determination of the moisture content.
Tonnages are estimated on a dry tonnage basis.
Cut-off
parameters
The basis of the adopted cut-off grade(s) or quality
parameters applied.
Open pit resources represent model estimates for
oxide and transition/fresh material within the pit

Peel routinely Peel routinely performed immersion
density measurements on air dried samples of drill
core with results available for 941 intervals of Wagga
Tank drill core ranging in length from 0.06 to 0.77m
and averaging around 0.24m.
Immersion density measurements are available for
around 16% of the combined composite estimation
dataset. The remaining assayed composites from the
transition and fresh zone were assigned densities
from sulphur assay grades using functions derived
from composites with both measurements as
follows:

Transition: Density (t/m3) = 2.60 + 0.022 x S(%), to
a maximum of 4.5 t/m3.

Fresh: Density (t/m3) = 2.70 + 0.041 x S(%), to a
maximum of 4.5 t/m3.
These functions represent an association between
increasing density and sulphur grade reflecting
increasing concentration of sulphide minerals
.
Oxide zone model blocks were assigned a density of
2.50 t/bcm on the basis of immersion density
measurements of diamond for this zone. Densities
were assigned to transition and fresh model blocks
by Ordinary Kriging of drill hole composites with
density values assigned to composites from
immersion measurements or density versus sulphur

for
composites
without

measurements and with sulphur assays. The un-
mineralised surficial zone which does not inform
mineral resources was assigned a density of 1.8
t/bcm on the basis of the competent person’s
experience of similar material.

integrity
Measures taken to ensure that data has not been
corrupted by, for example, transcription or keying
errors, between its initial collection and its use for
Mineral Resource estimation purposes.
Data validation procedures used.
The database of historical data has been validated by
reconciling all available hardcopy drill logs and assay
results. This data has been reviewed in 3D against
drilling undertaken by Peel.
Prior to 2019, geological and field data were entered
into Microsoft Excel spreadsheets with lookup tables
and fixed formatting. Data was then imported into a
customised
SQL
database
with
validation
undertaken on import. From 2019, Geobank mobile
has been used for the collection of data. Data is
validated during entry into Geobank with further
validation undertaken during synchronisation with
the main database.
Assay data were imported directly from original lab
files into the previous SQL database and now into
Geobank with no prior manipulation of results.
The Peel SQL database and recent Geobank
database have robust validation and constraints
incorporated into them to ensure validated data is
readily available for fit for purpose use. The database
is managed by a database administrator employed
by Peel Mining.
A complete drilling database was supplied by Peel
Mining to Mr Abbott in the form of text files exported
from the Geobank Database.
Mr Abbott’s checking of the compiled database
extract included checking for consistency within and
between database tables. These reviews showed no
significant discrepancies.

worked closely with Peel geologists familiar with the
project. Mr Abbott has previously visited Peel’s field
office and is familiar with Peel’s general drilling and
sampling
procedures.
With
no

would provide little additional information and Mr

Nature of the data used and of any assumptions
made.
The effect, if any, of alternative interpretations on
Mineral Resource estimation.
The use of geology in guiding and controlling
Mineral Resource estimation.
The factors affecting continuity both of grade and
geology.
The majority of the Southern Nights-Wagga Tank
area is overlain by surficial cover, with only minor
bedrock exposures in the Wagga Tank area.
Geological interpretation is primarily based on
geological logging of diamond and RC drill holes.
The geological stratigraphic model built for the
Maiden MRE in June 2019, was built utilising 385 drill
holes within the Wagga Tank deposit and 381 drill
holes (inclusive of RAB) within the Southern Nights
deposit. Due to the infill nature of the recent Mineral
Resource drilling the geological model was reviewed
and it was considered unnecessary to update the
stratigraphic model for the current MRE.
The base of weathering has been modelled using
information from the drill logs. The downhole points
of the top of fresh rock surface have been used to
create an oxidation bounding surface for the
deposit. Due to the infill nature of the recent Mineral
Resource drilling the oxidation surface used in the
maiden MRE, was reviewed and it was considered
unnecessary to update the stratigraphic model for
the current MRE. Minor supergene mineralisation is
located above this oxidation surface and has not
been considered as part of this MRE.
The base metal mineralisation at Southern Nights
has been interpreted to be sub-parallel to the
stratigraphy which dips steeply to the west.
The base metal mineralisation at Wagga Tank is
more structurally complex and has been interpreted
to be sub-vertical with a slight dip to the east in some
places.

contact zone is interpreted over approximately
1.6km of strike with widths ranging from around
rarely 2 to 28m and averaging around 5.5m. The

are
representative
of
the
mineralisation.
Classification The basis for the classification of the Mineral
Resources into varying confidence categories.
Estimated Mineral Resources are extrapolated to
generally around 40m from drill intercepts and
classified as Indicated and Inferred on the basis of
polygons defining areas of relatively consistent drill
hole spacing.
For the Southern Nights and Wagga Tanks contact
zone domains, estimates for mineralisation with
consistently 40 by 40m or closer spaced sampling are
classified as Indicated and estimates for more
broadly sampled mineralisation are initially classified
as Inferred. The interpreted low recovery/cavity zone
at Wagga Tank was re-classified to Inferred.
The
eastern
Southern
Nights
domains
are
comparatively broadly drilled and all estimates for
these domains are classified as Inferred.
Whether appropriate account has been taken of all
relevant
factors
(ie
relative
confidence
in
tonnage/grade estimations, reliability of input data,
confidence in continuity of geology and metal
values, quality, quantity and distribution of the
data).
The Mineral Resource classification accounts for all
relevant factors.
Whether the result appropriately reflects the
Competent Person’s view of the deposit.
The Mineral Resource classifications reflect the
Competent Person’s views of the deposit.
Audits
or
reviews
The results of any audits or reviews of Mineral
Resource estimates.
The Mineral Resource estimates have been
reviewed by Peel geologists and are considered to
appropriately reflect the mineralisation and drilling
data.
Discussion of
relative
accuracy/
confidence
Where appropriate a statement of the relative
accuracy and confidence level in the Mineral
Resource estimate using an approach or procedure
deemed appropriate by the Competent Person. For
example,
the
application
of
statistical
or
geostatistical procedures to quantify the relative
accuracy of the resource within stated confidence
Confidence in the relative accuracy of the estimates
is reflected by the classification of estimates as
Indicated and Inferred.

limits, or, if such an approach is not deemed
appropriate, a qualitative discussion of the factors
that could affect the relative accuracy and
confidence of the estimate.
The statement should specify whether it relates to
global or local estimates, and, if local, state the
relevant tonnages, which should be relevant to
technical and economic evaluation. Documentation
should include assumptions made and the
procedures used.
These
statements
of
relative
accuracy
and
confidence of the estimate should be compared with
production data, where available.
