Meteor Meteor – – NS- - NS Cross Cross Section Section - - High High Grade Grade Mineralisation Mineralisation

METEOR - REE SOURCE ROCKS

Primary REE Mineralisation Potential

  • High Magnetic Relief Rocks Layered Mafic Intrusion
  • Diorite with significant rare earth bearing Apatite -Titanite minerals present. Up to 2% Apatite by volume estimated from optical microscopy.
  • May be an equivalent aged intrusion to the Muckanippie Anorthosite Complex?

Drilling of Basement Sequence at Meteor in

December to test for Primary REEs ! Photomicrograph from drill hole 22ACCR188 (30-32 metres depth). Actinolite (green) and biotite (brown) Note the significant number of small preserved primary apatite crystals ~ 2% of volume (colourless, high relief,stumpy prismatic crystal form).

COMET REE PROJECT SIGNIFICANT GROUND POSTION

  • Strong ground position in the Northern Gawler Craton, totalling 1,915 Km2.
  • Regional drilling activities to date have tested 130 km2, which is just 7 % of the total Project Holding.
  • Substantial upside potential for additional new REE discoveries to be made in the surrounding un-explored tenure.

MUCKANIPPIE PROJECT PROSPECTIVE ANORTHOSITE INTRUSION

  • New Project over centre of the highly prospective Muckanippie Anorthosite Complex won through a competitive bid
  • Globally anorthosite complexes are a major source of Ti-Fe-P-V ores with some including high concentrations of rare earths
  • Adelaide to Darwin railway 40 kilometres east of project area offers low-cost connection to markets

MUCKANIPPIE PROJECT PROSPECTIVE ANORTHOSITE INTRUSION

  • Historic drilling of mafic fraction includes substantial Ti-Fe mineralisation and Phosphate potential. Titanium grades up to 10.5 % TiO2 recorded.
  • Known mineralization extends from 4 metres to 130 metres depth and remains open. Sparsely drilled and follows a body of approximately 2 kilometres length
  • Sampling of historic drill core has additionally highlighted areas of anomalous rare earths up to 1000 ppm Total Rare Earth Oxide (TREO) in the overlying clay profile.

WOOMERA IOCG PROJECT HIGHLY PRIZED TENURE – in an area of MAJOR IOCGMINERALISATION

  • Multiple high priority gravity targets – 3 Target Styles !
  • Native Title Mining Exploration Agreement Completed June 2022
  • Drilling of targets scheduled from Q2 2023

WOOMERA IOCG PROJECT

  • 3 Distinct Styles of Mineralisation !
  • Target 1- IOCG Breccia Bodies Cu-Au-Ag-U (i.e. Olympic Dam / Carrapateena / Oak Dam & Prominent Hill)
  • Target 2 Stratabound IOCG's Cu-Au-Co (i.e. Emmie Bluff Deeps, Punt Hill & Hillside)
  • Target 3 Stratabound Cu-Au-Co in overlying cover rocks (i.e. Mt Gunson & Emmie Bluff – potentially remobilised from IOCG basement below !)

Significant historical IOCG copper intersections adjacent to Petratherm's Woomera Exploration Licence Area overlain on a Residual Gravity Image. High gravity areas may indicate zones of stratabound and breccia mineralization

WOOMERA IOCG PROJECT – TARGET 1COMPARISON WITH CARAPATEENA

• Target 1is an IOCG Breccia Body Target – Displays a Comparable gravity response to the Carrapateena Orebody !

• Steep gravity gradient on west side of Target 1may indicate additional shallow Stratabound mineralisation in the overlying cover strata. (i.e. Emmie Bluff, Mt Gunson Style Cu-Au-Comineralisation potential also!)

TARGET STYLE 2 : STRATABOUND IOCGs – A Potential Game Changer!

TARGET STYLE 2: STRATABOUND IOCGs – WOOMERA PROJECT TARGETS

Gravity Profile Modelling highlights several Stratabound IOCG Gravity Targets on the Woomera Project Area displaying higher magnitudes than the Winjabbie Anomaly

ARCOONA IOCG PROJECT

  • Arcoona Project (EL 6854) located within the world class copper-gold "Olympic Province" of South Australia
  • Project secured through a South Australian Government competitive bid process.
  • Tenement is close to major coppergold mines/occurrences and is prospective for Olympic Dam style Copper-Gold and Strata-bound Copper-Gold mineralisation.
  • One of the last areas in the region where no detailed gravity surveying has been undertaken to explore for Iron Oxide Copper Gold

SOUTH AUSTRALIA'S World-Class Olympic Dam Copper-Gold Province

  • Mabel Creek Large holding(2,852 km2), fertile for Iron Oxide-Copper-Gold (IOCG) mineralisation
  • Surrounded by Major World Copper Players – RIO, Oz Minerals & FMG
