PRE-DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
ENVIRONMENT AND PERMITTING
Review of Environmental Factors (REF) for Mallee Bull
During the quarter, the Review of Environmental Factors (REF) for the Mallee Bull exploration decline continued to be reviewed by the NSW Resources Regulator and relevant government agencies. The submission of the REF is a regulatory requirement for the Resource Regulator to assess and determine the permissibility of this activity under Part 5 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 . The Company expects an outcome on the REF in the upcoming coming quarter.
During the quarter, the Resource Regulator conducted a site visit to the Mallee Bull project area as part of the determination process for the REF. Following this site visit, Peel Mining submitted a draft Environmental Management Plan for the project to assist the Resources Regulator with the review of the REF and to demonstrate the proposed operational environmental management protocols.
A meeting has been scheduled with the Rehabilitation and Securities Panel (RASP) in early May 2023 as part of the determination process for the Mallee Bull REF.
Review of Environmental Factors (REF) for Wirlong and Southern Nights
Preliminary scoping works and studies have commenced for the permitting processes associated with REFs for exploration declines at Wirlong and Southern Nights-Wagga Tank. Specialist contractors have been engaged to commence the required studies for Wirlong. Engagement of consultants for the Southern Nights-Wagga Tank studies will occur in the next quarter. The approval path and documentation for these projects are expected to be the same as the process for the Mallee Bull exploration decline.
HYDROGEOLOGICAL
During the quarter, further water bore drilling was undertaken at Wagga Tank and Mallee Bull to establish a groundwater monitoring network across the South Cobar Project (SCP). Nine drillholes were completed for a total of 1,798m. Two of the nine drillholes intercepted moderate water flows, with the remaining seven drillholes producing low or insignificant water flows. A vibrating wire piezometer (VWP) was installed at Southern Nights which is designed to measure bore water pressure in order to detect the level and flow pattern of groundwater. All data produced from the VWP, along with the previously installed VWPs at Wirlong and Mallee Bull and existing water bores will be used to develop a detailed groundwater model for mining studies and EIS purposes.
PRE-FEASABILTY WORK
During the quarter detailed mine designs were completed for Mallee Bull, Wirlong and Southern Nights to an accuracy required for a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS).
Processing options are being actively assessed with GR Engineering Services engaged to provide a processing circuit design, and capital and operating costs for the PFS.
Detailed costing estimates for the surface infrastructure are being sort in readiness for the Mallee Bull REF and the PFS.

NSW CRITICAL MINERALS ACTIVATION FUND APPLICATION
During the quarter, Peel received the first installment of grant funding from NSW Government Critical Minerals and High-Tech Metals Activation Fund (CMAF) Stream 1. The installment was for $250,000 out of the $500,000 total as a contribution to undertaking PFS work on the South Cobar Project (SCP). Peel commenced PFS work on the SCP in late 2022.
EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES
WIRLONG & IRIS VALE NE GEOPHYSICS
During the quarter, Peel completed Induced Polarization (IP) surveys immediately north of its Wirlong deposit and at its Iris Vale NE prospect.
At Wirlong , four IP lines 200m (N-S) apart were completed extending coverage from earlier IP surveys. Preliminary results highlight several moderate intensity chargeable anomalies to the W and NW of Wirlong under topographic highs – these areas remain untested by drilling.
The top of the immediate Wirlong resource area is expressed as a near-surface, moderate to strong chargeable anomaly. The other notable features are NW/SE trending resistive features that appear to highlight the John Owen fault, and possibly a parallel structure immediately to its north, as well as conductive overburden in the eastern part of the survey. Wirlong data is still being merged with earlier IP data to generate 3D inversion models, which will be utilised for future exploration planning including potential drilling.

The Iris Vale NE prospect is defined by a 3.5km long magnetic anomaly and is located ~2.5km to the SW of Aurelia Metal’s Piney prospect. Two IP lines 800m apart were completed by Peel to provide coverage over stronger parts of the magnetic anomaly.
The two lines at Iris Vale NE have each highlighted discrete, near-surface, moderate chargeable responses coincident with the previously known magnetic anomalies. Resistivity data indicates that the surveys have not been adversely impacted by conductive cover.
Surface geochemical surveys are now underway at Iris Vale NE with results to assist with future exploration planning including potential drilling.

REGIONAL EXPLORATION AND TARGET GENERATION
During the quarter, the Company undertook near deposit and regional exploration and target generation on its South Cobar tenure. Peel has approximately 3,200km[2] of highly prospective tenure (see figure 4). Desktop analysis, field mapping and reconnaissance, surface soil sampling, rock-chipping, historic drillhole assaying and geophysics were completed at priority prospects including Double Peak, Wynwood, Armageddon, Mundoe, BMW, Gilgunnia Goldfield, Sandy Creek, Nombinnie, Marigold and Bedooba and Iris Vale NE. The Company will progress these exploration targets with a view to drill test the highest priority targets in due course.
