PRE-DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

SOUTH COBAR PROJECT DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY

Peel's South Cobar Project (SCP), comprises the Mallee Bull, Wirlong, Southern Nights, Wagga Tank and May Day deposits and associated development-focused activities. Peel is seeking to establish critical mass via the definition of high-quality mineral resources at each of the Company's deposits to support an operation of sufficient economy of scale and mine life. The Mallee Bull and Wirlong copper dominant deposits present an opportunity to take advantage of a strong copper market, simplify the sequencing of the deposits and metallurgical processes and allows potential staging of capital. As a result of this, the Company is focused on developing the Mallee Bull and Wirlong copper assets as a priority.

Peel has begun the process of seeking regulatory approvals to establish exploration declines at both Mallee Bull and Wirlong, to enable future underground resource definition drilling and exploration of the deeper portions of the deposit.

After regaining 100% ownership of the Mallee Bull Copper Project and Wirlong Copper Project (Please refer to ASX announcement date 6th of January 2021 and 17th of August 2020 respectively), Peel has been focusing on completing baseline environmental field surveys and desktop data analysis for the exploration decline Review of Environmental Factors (REF), including biodiversity, heritage, water, air, and soils at Mallee Bull and Wirlong.

During the quarter, Peel has undertaken Water Monitoring Bore (WMB) drilling program at Mallee Bull and Wirlong prospects to investigate the pre-mining baseline groundwater environment and further to collect sufficient groundwater information for the Environmental Regulatory Compliance.

Further, the Company has commissioned R.W Corkery & Co. Pty. Limited to upgrade existing Review of Environmental Factors (REF) for the proposed Mallee Bull exploration decline and associated surface infrastructures. Subsequently, the company is also looking to seek regulatory approval to develop an exploration decline and associated surface infrastructures at Wirlong.

METALLURGICAL TESTWORK

During the quarter, the Company completed metallurgical testwork on its Wirlong Copper deposit, in anticipation of the planned release of a maiden mineral resource later this year. No previous metallurgical testwork had been conducted on samples from Wirlong.

The first pass metallurgical testwork consisted of a preliminary batch flotation test on one composite sample from Wirlong drillhole WLDD009. The mineralised interval from 265m to 290m was selected for testwork with initial assaying yielding an average copper grade of 2.79% Cu. The interval encompasses several metres of hanging wall and footwall on each end of the high-grade stringer chalcopyrite mineralisation.

The testwork program was conducted by ALS Metallurgy Lab in Burnie, Tasmania, and was designed to establish a preliminary flowsheet and assess recoverability of the Wirlong copper mineralisation into a flotation concentrate. This initial program was based around previous testwork performed on samples from Peel's Mallee Bull deposit. Following initial grind establishment, a high-quality copper concentrate was generated via sequential flotation processes. The sample was run then through a sequential flotation process which returned highly encouraging results:

Stage Cu Recovery % Cu Grade % Ag Recovery % Ag Grade g/t
Rougher 98.2 20.1 75.8 59
Cleaner 1 96.9 27.1 71.0 76
Cleaner 2 90.8 31.0 64.2 84

Table 1: Wirlong WLDD009 Flotation Results

Next Steps

Peel will look to undertake environmental assessments based on the collected baseline field survey data. Furthermore, it is looking to work together with its consultants to prepare and submit the Review of Environmental Factors (REF) for lodgement, for both Mallee Bull and Wirlong, in the coming months.

Additional samples of differing range of initial Cu grade have been selected for further metallurgical testwork on the Wirlong deposit. The aim of this work will be to optimise the recovery process.

Peel has recently submitted samples from Mallee bull and Wirlong projects to undergo ore-sorting trials at TOMRA sorting facility in Sydney. A PQ hole from each project was designed and drilled during the quarter to target intersect the known mineralised zone representative of their respective projects. Results are expected in the coming weeks and will be reported when ready.

EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES

WIRLONG - COPPER, SILVER; WESTERN NSW.

Wirlong is located ~75km south of Cobar, NSW and about 40km north of Peel's Mallee Bull copper deposit. Wirlong represents a classic Cobar-style Cu-Ag deposit analogous to the CSA mine. The prospect is preresource, however internal modelling shows good potential to establish a copper-rich Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate. Strong copper mineralisation commences at ~60m below surface and has been defined to at least 600m below surface. The deposit remains open along strike and at depth.

During the quarter drilling continued as part of a resource definition drilling programme to establish a Maiden copper-dominant resource at the Wirlong prospect. The resource definition program originally comprised ~15,000m of drilling and is anticipated to be completed in the later part of 2021. Drilling at Wirlong has been designed to drill test the upper ~300m of the Wirlong Central zone where high-grade copper (chalcopyrite) mineralisation is understood to be structurally controlled on a NW-SE orientation.

20 diamond drillholes and one diamond tail on a previous RC pre-collar were completed during the June quarter for a total of 7,524.5m. An additional 3 diamond drillholes were completed post quarter end with diamond drilling ongoing at the time of reporting. Assay results have been returned for 8 diamond drillholes completed in the previous quarter (WLDD009-WLDD016) and for 7 diamond drillholes drilled during the June quarter (WLDD017-WLDD022, WLDD025).

Highlights from diamond assays returned and released to the market during the June quarter include:

  • 11m @ 5.88% Cu, 17g/t Ag from 271m within 17m @ 4.00% Cu, 12 g/t Ag from 269m in WLDD009
  • 6.06m @ 2.51% Cu, 10g/t Ag from 283.94m in WLDD010
  • 28m @ 3.62% Cu, 12g/t Ag from 306m, and 4m @ 3.15% Cu, 13g/t Ag from 81m in WLDD011
  • 24.4m @ 3.68% Cu, 11g/t Ag from 350m in WLDD013
  • 11m @ 2.40% Cu, 14g/t Ag from 272m, and 26m @ 1.72% Cu, 6g/t Ag from 302m in WLDD015
  • 5.75m @ 5.54% Cu, 37g/t Ag from 353.25m in WLDD016
  • 10m @ 4.04% Cu, 24g/t Ag from 300m, and 7m @ 2.52% Cu, 7g/t Ag from 338.92m, and 5m @ 2.45% Cu, 5g/t Ag from 361m in WLDD017
  • 6.45m @ 5.01% Cu, 23g/t Ag from 272.6m from 260m, and 3.15m @ 2.49% Cu, 4g/t Ag from 494.55m in WLDD019
  • 11m @ 3.52% Cu, 16g/t Ag from 207m, and 1.82m @ 5.75% Cu, 48g/t Ag from 299m in WLDD022
  • 14m @ 3.11% Cu, 16g/t Ag from 210m in WLDD025

Recently returned assay results confirm significant copper mineralisation in multiple drillholes, including broad mineralised zones with higher-grade internal zones, and narrower mineralised zones including highgrade mineralisation. Significantly, mineralisation is consistent with the position of an electromagnetic conductor plate, and with a revised structural model, further supporting Peel's geophysical and geological modelling.

Next Steps

Drilling will continue during the September quarter in order to establish a maiden resource at the deposit. Further metallurgical testwork, as well as ore sorting trials, are planned along with resource modelling and estimation. This work will form the basis of a scoping study on the deposit.

MALLEE BULL - COPPER, SILVER, GOLD, LEAD, ZINC; WESTERN NSW.

Mallee Bull represents one of Australia's highest grade undeveloped copper deposits and is located ~100km south of Cobar, NSW and ~40km south of Peel's Wirlong copper deposit. The 2017 resource estimate for Mallee Bull (See Mineral Resource Estimates) comprises 6.76 Mt at 1.8% Cu, 31g/t Ag, 0.4g/t Au, 0.6% Pb, 0.6% Zn (2.6% CuEq) containing approximately 119,000t Cu, 6.6 Moz Ag, 83,000 oz Au, 38,000t Pb, 38,000t Zn) (using a 1% CuEq cut-off). Refer to 6th July 2017 announcement "Mallee Bull Resource Grows by 65% to 175,000t CuEq" for further details. Resource upgrade drilling is part of the Company's strategy to advance each of the Company's deposits to mineable resources in order to achieve critical mass.

The resource upgrade drilling program, comprising ~20,000m of diamond drilling, is primarily designed to convert Inferred classified resources to Indicated classification. Drilling is being undertaken by two, double shifting multi-purpose drill rigs, with initial focus on the zone between 300m and 500m below surface. 15 diamond drillholes were completed during the June quarter (MBDD033-MBDD047) for a total of 6341.7m or >30% of the planned drilling. A further 2 diamond drillholes were completed post quarter end with drilling ongoing at the time of reporting. As expected, visibly significant zones of strong copper mineralisation have been returned in recent drilling, however processing and sampling is continuing, with assays pending for all of the drillholes. Visual estimates and descriptions (previously reported) are shown in Table 10.

Next Steps

Resource infill drilling will continue with drilling anticipated to be completed in the December quarter. An existing internal scoping study for Mallee Bull will then be updated to reflect its potential contribution to the conceptual Hub and Spoke development model. Metallurgical testwork, geotechnical studies, and underground mining studies will be ongoing to assist the Company with collating and releasing a scoping study on the project as part of the broader South Cobar Deposit Concept Study.

SOUTHERN NIGHTS - ZINC, LEAD, SILVER, COPPER, GOLD; WESTERN NSW.

The Southern Nights deposit is located on the western edge of the Cobar Superbasin, ~130 km south of Cobar or ~30km northwest of Mount Hope and is host to the polymetallic VMS-type deposit. Mineralisation straddles a broad zone of intense tectonic brecciation and hydrothermal alteration (sericite-chlorite with local silicification) and occurs as sub-vertical elongate shoots/lenses. Drilling by Peel to date has focused on defining the geometry and extent of large-scale Zn-rich mineralisation at Southern Nights.

Drilling at Southern Nights South recommenced in early April and was primarily designed as a step-out program to systematically test the prospective sediment-volcanic horizon for southern extensions to the high-grade massive sulphide mineralisation discovered in late 2019. 5 holes were drilled for a total of 1,209.15m and comprised two RC pre collars (WTRC249 & WTRC250), two RC pre collar with diamond tail holes (WTRCDD247 & WTRCDD248) and one diamond hole from surface (WTDD002). WTDD002 and WTRCDD248 successfully intersected the sediment-volcanic horizon which hosted disseminated to locally semi-massive sphalerite-pyrite-galena. WTRCDD248 intersected an approximately 30cm interval of massive sphalerite-galena-pyrite (Figure 1) stratigraphically above the sediment-volcanic horizon confirming the potential for economic mineralisation hosted in the hanging wall turbidite sequence. Assays from this core is still pending.

Figure 6 - Massive sphalerite-galena-pyrite in WTRCDD248, 277m

Next Steps

Further infill and extensional drilling at Southern Nights is planned to commence early 2022. Detailed metallurgical testwork, focused on improved metal selectivity and recoveries, remains ongoing at the time of reporting.

WAGGA TANK REGIONAL

The Wagga Tank tenement (EL6695) is located on the western edge of the Cobar Superbasin, ~130 km south of Cobar and ~30km northwest of Mount Hope and is host to the Southern Nights and Wagga Tank deposits, as well as Fenceline, Siegals and May Day Tails prospects.

Regional exploration drilling at the Wagga Tank-Southern Nights project began in May 2021 and comprised four RC holes (WTRC251 - WTRC254) for a total of 1029m. The holes were drilled as part of a NSW Government funded New Frontiers Cooperative Drilling program and were designed to test the prospective sediment-volcanic horizon that had been traced outside the project drilling by geological mapping. All holes successfully intersected the sediment-volcanic horizon, validating Peel's geological mapping. Of the four holes, WTRC252 returned the most intense hydrothermal alteration and elevated sulphide content possibly indicating proximity to heat/metal source. Assays are pending for all holes. Infill and extensional IP surveying began in mid-June and was partially completed before wet weather conditions impacted access.

Next Steps

Completion of the IP survey that has been delayed due to wet weather and impeded access. Followed by a thorough review of the results to identify any significant anomalies for follow-up surface geochemistry and/or drilling. Planning for systematic step out drilling at Southern Nights South will continue with the

aim of extending the known mineralisation to the south. In addition to step out drilling, a significant IP anomaly at the west of Southern Nights South also remains to be drill tested.

CORPORATE

SALE OF NON-CORE ASSETS

During the quarter, the Company's 100% owned subsidiary, Peel Far West Pty Ltd ("PFW") completed the sale of its non-core Koonenberry Project exploration licences to Odin Metals Limited (ASX:ODM) ("Odin"). The Koonenberry Project exploration licences (EL8721, EL8722, EL8790, EL8791 and EL8909) are located East of Broken Hill, NSW and cover the under-explored Koonenberry Belt.

Odin Metals Limited issued 50,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares to Peel in consideration for a 100% ownership interest in the licences. Peel Mining Limited will retain a 1% net smelter return royalty, payable quarterly from the date on which saleable mineral or metallic product is first produced from the licences.

WITHDRAWAL FROM MUNDI MUNDI MOU

During the Quarter, Peel Mining Limited notified Australian Silver Mines and Twenty Seven Co Limited that it was terminating its Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which covered its Thunderdome tenement (EL8877) near Broken Hill, NSW. The MoU was signed in January 2020, but due to COVID19, and the companies focus on other areas, the conditions of the MoU were not met. Peel retains 100% ownership of its Mundi Mundi tenement.

WITHDRAWAL FROM SCRUBBY VALLEY FARM-IN

Post quarter-end, the Company advised the owner of EL8707 it would not progress to the next stage of the farm-in and would be withdrawing from the farm-in arrangement over the tenement. Although the Company was encouraged by the results from its reconnaissance over the tenement, it felt that its exploration resources would be better spent on its 100%-owned South Cobar Project tenure going forward. Peel would hold no future rights over the tenure.

FINANCE

At the end of the quarter the Company had approximately $16.8 million cash at bank. As mentioned in the previous quarter, the Company completed a rights issue during the quarter which raised AUD$1.71 million. The Company also received a $332,540.97 Research and Development (R&D) Tax Incentive Refund for activities during 2019/2020 year. The Company continued its R&D project during the current year.

Included in the Appendix 5B – Section 6 are amounts paid to the Directors of the Company during the March quarter totalling $290,392, comprising $259,947 of remuneration payments of Director and Managing Director fees and superannuation. Payments of $20,545 were made to Mr Simon Hadfield (Peel Mining's Chairman) for rental of office space and associated costs. $9,900 was also paid to RIU Conferences Pty Ltd, a Company which Mr Hadfield is a director, for conference attendance.

This announcement has been authorised by the Board of Directors of the Company.

Cpy = chalcopyrite; Po = pyrrhotite; Py = pyrite; Sph = sphalerite; Gn = galena. Pure chalcopyrite contains ~34.5% Cu. Pure sphalerite contains ~67% Zn. Pure galena contains ~86.6% Pb. In relation to the disclosure of visual mineralisation, the Company cautions that visual estimates of sulphide material abundance should never be considered a proxy or substitute for laboratory analysis. Laboratory assay results are required to determine the widths and grade of the visible mineralisation reported in preliminary geological logging. The Company will update the market when laboratory analytical results become available.
