AUSTRALIAN STOCK EXCHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT & MEDIA RELEASE

UNIQUE HIGH-GRADE GRAPHITE MINERALISATION CONTINUITY CONFIRMED AT ULEY

  • Assay results confirm strike extension of very high-grade flake graphite mineralisation at Uley Graphite site
  • Very high-grade near-surface mineralisation within Uley Pit 2 imply lower L.O.M. strip ratio
  • Very high grades of graphite along strike including grade exceeding 45% gC

Valence Industries Limited (Valence Industries or the Company) (ASX: VXL & VXLO) is pleased to announce further results from the targeted extensional drilling campaign at the Company's Uley GraphiteTM operation near Port Lincoln.

The campaign has been focused on the Uley Pit 2 area (see Figure 1). It is designed to confirm the dip and strike continuity of the Uley GraphiteTM lodes and provide data to allow a detailed mining schedule to be developed for Uley Pit 2. That mine schedule will target high-grade, near-surface mineralisation.

These most recent assay results continue to indicate very high-grade graphite mineralisation is continuous in a southerly direction, along strike from the optimised Uley Pit 2 and within the Exploration Target Area.

Near-surface mineralisation extends across the strike length of the resource area and with the Exploration Target area, minimising the volume of pre-stripping overburden removal prior to ore extraction within the optimised Uley Pit 2, and allowing Valence Industries to further progress Life of Mine studies at Uley Pit 2.

APPENDIX 1

JORC Code, 2012 Edition

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data

(Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.)

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Samplingtechniques Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels,random chips, or specific specialised industrystandard measurement tools appropriate to theminerals under investigation, such as down holegamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments,etc.). These examples should not be taken aslimiting the broad meaning of sampling.Include reference to measures taken to ensuresample representivity and the appropriatecalibration of any measurement tools or systemsused.Aspects of the determination of mineralisationthat are Material to the Public Report.In cases where 'industry standard' work has beendone this would be relatively simple (e.g. 'reversecirculation drilling was used to obtain 1 msamples from which 3 kg was pulverised toproduce a 30 g charge for fire assay'). In othercases more explanation may be required, such aswhere there is coarse gold that has inherentsampling problems. Unusual commodities ormineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules)may warrant disclosure of detailed information. Triple tube Diamond (HQ3) drilling was employed togenerate core for logging and sampling. Mineralisedsamples were submitted for assay on typically onemetre intervals. Duplicate and standard sampleswere inserted typically every 20th sample. Diamondcore was cut in half using a diamond impregnatedblade on a core saw and half-core samples were sentto ALS Global for assay.
Drillingtechniques Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-holehammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic,etc.) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple orstandard tube, depth of diamond tails, facesampling bit or other type, whether core isoriented and if so, by what method, etc.). Drilling was planned on a nominal 25m X 25m collarpattern, for a total of 5,748 diamond drilling metres.Drill holes were drilled at -60 degree dip on a 090azimuth. Diamond drilling was undertaken usingtriple tube HQ3 (61mm diameter) core from collar toEnd of Hole.
Drill samplerecovery Method of recording and assessing core and chipsample recoveries and results assessed.Measures taken to maximise sample recoveryand ensure representative nature of the samples.Whether a relationship exists between samplerecovery and grade and whether sample biasmay have occurred due to preferential loss/gainof fine/coarse material. Core recovery was recorded at the drill site andduring core logging and measured for every core run.Sample recovery is deemed to be adequate forresource estimation purposes.
Logging Whether core and chip samples have beengeologically and geotechnically logged to a levelof detail to support appropriate Mineral Resourceestimation, mining studies and metallurgicalstudies.Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative innature. Core (or costean, channel, etc.)photography.The total length and percentage of the relevantintersections logged. 100% of the drill holes were geologically andgeotechnically logged by qualified geologists,recording relevant data to a set database structure.All logging included lithological features, mineralassemblages, mineralisation percentage estimatesand geotechnical information suitable for thedevelopment of geology models and pit slope designcriteria.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Sub-samplingtechniques andsamplepreparation If core, whether cut or sawn and whetherquarter, half or all core taken.If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotarysplit, etc. and whether sampled wet or dry.For all sample types, the nature, quality andappropriateness of the sample preparationtechnique.Quality control procedures adopted for all subsampling stages to maximise representivity ofsamples.Measures taken to ensure that the sampling isrepresentative of the in situ material collected,including for instance results for fieldduplicate/second-half sampling.Whether sample sizes are appropriate to thegrain size of the material being sampled. Sample preparation is consistent with industry bestpractice. Field QC procedures involved the use ofcertified reference material assay standards, blanksand duplicates for Company QC measures, andlaboratory standards, replicate sampling and barrenwashes for laboratory QC measures. The insertionrate of each of these QAQC measures averaged 1:20.Half-diamond core samples averaged 1m in length,and are deemed appropriate for the material andanalysis method.
Quality of assaydata andlaboratory tests The nature, quality and appropriateness of theassaying and laboratory procedures used andwhether the technique is considered partial ortotal.For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheldXRF instruments, etc., the parameters used indetermining the analysis including instrumentmake and model, reading times, calibrationsfactors applied and their derivation, etc.Nature of quality control procedures adopted(e.g. standards, blanks, duplicates, externallaboratory checks) and whether acceptable levelsof accuracy (i.e. lack of bias) and precision havebeen established. The samples were prepared at ALS Global (Adelaide),including crushing entire sample >70% -6mm,splitting and retention of 50% sample weight, andpulverising. The prepared samples were sent to ALSglobal (Brisbane) for analytical procedures C-IR18, CCAL15, CIR17 and C-IR07 by LECO analyser todetermine graphitic carbon, inorganic carbon bydifference, organic carbon and total carbon. Thedetection limits and precision for graphitic carbonanalysis are considered to be adequate for thepurpose of future resource estimations. Thelaboratory procedures are considered to beappropriate for reporting purposes. Company QAQCsamples inserted at 5% representivity demonstratethe accuracy and precision of the graphitic carbon tobe satisfactory.
Verification ofsampling andassaying The verification of significant intersections byeither independent or alternative companypersonnel.The use of twinned holes.Documentation of primary data, data entryprocedures, data verification, data storage(physical and electronic) protocols.Discuss any adjustment to assay data. Significant mineralisation intersections were verifiedby two company personnel. No adjustments to theassay data have been made. All data was collected,sampled and assayed according to Companyprocedures and validated using a Microsoft Accessrelational database.
Location of datapoints Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locatedrill holes (collar and down-hole surveys),trenches, mine workings and other locations usedin Mineral Resource estimation.Specification of the grid system used.Quality and adequacy of topographic control. Topographical control is sufficient for this explorationdrilling. Collar location were set out using anindependent surveyor. All down-hole surveying wasundertaken using a Reflex multi-shot survey tool atnominal 25m intervals down hole.
Data spacing anddistribution Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.Whether the data spacing and distribution issufficient to establish the degree of geologicaland grade continuity appropriate for the MineralResource and Ore Reserve estimationprocedure(s) and classifications applied.Whether sample compositing has been applied. Drill collar spacing is generally 25m X 25m or 25m X50m where existing drill holes provide sufficientgeological confidence.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Orientation ofdata in relationto geologicalstructure Whether the orientation of sampling achievesunbiased sampling of possible structures and theextent to which this is known, considering thedeposit type.If the relationship between the drillingorientation and the orientation of keymineralised structures is considered to haveintroduced a sampling bias, this should beassessed and reported if material. The orientation of the drilling is not expected tointroduce sampling bias. Drilling has generallyintersected mineralisation perpendicular to strikecontinuity.
Sample security The measures taken to ensure sample security. Samples were packaged and stored in secure storagefrom collection through the chain of custody tosubmission. Laboratory best practice methods wereemployed by the laboratory upon receipt.
Audits or reviews The results of any audits or reviews of samplingtechniques and data. Company QAQC checks were undertaken during thedrilling, logging and sampling program. No externalaudit of the data has been undertaken. No significantissues in drilling, sampling or analytic technique havebeen identified.

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Mineraltenement andland tenurestatus Type, reference name/number, location andownership including agreements or materialissues with third parties such as joint ventures,partnerships, overriding royalties, native titleinterests, historical sites, wilderness or nationalpark and environmental settings.The security of the tenure held at the time ofreporting along with any known impediments toobtaining a licence to operate in the area. The Company owns 100% interest in the EL4778tenement. The tenement is in good standing andthere are no known significant impediments toexploration or mining in the area.
Exploration doneby other parties Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration byother parties. No other parties were involved in this explorationprogram.
Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style ofmineralisation. The Uley graphite deposit is a high-grade coarse-flakemineralised envelope within the broader "Mikkira"graphite resource. Uley graphite mineralisation ishosted by the Cook Gap Schist, a partially migmatisedmedium grained biotite+/-garnet+/-muscovite+/-sillimanite-quartzofeldspathic schist/gneiss withleucocratic pegmatite sweats.
Drill holeInformation A summary of all information material to theunderstanding of the exploration results includinga tabulation of the following information for allMaterial drill holes:oeasting and northing of the drill hole collaroelevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevationabove sea level in metres) of the drill holecollarodip and azimuth of the holeodown hole length and interception depthohole length.If the exclusion of this information is justified onthe basis that the information is not Material andthis exclusion does not detract from theunderstanding of the report, the CompetentPerson should clearly explain why this is the case. Refer to collar table within the text of this document.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary
Data aggregationmethods In reporting Exploration Results, weightingaveraging techniques, maximum and/orminimum grade truncations (e.g. cutting of highgrades) and cut-off grades are usually Materialand should be stated.Where aggregate intercepts incorporate shortlengths of high grade results and longer lengthsof low grade results, the procedure used for suchaggregation should be stated and some typicalexamples of such aggregations should be shownin detail.The assumptions used for any reporting of metalequivalent values should be clearly stated. No top cuts have been applied to the resultsreported in this announcement. A nominal 10%graphitic carbon lower cut-off has been applied inthe determination of significant intercepts. Highgrade intercepts within broader low grade intervalshave been separated as "including" results. No metalequivalent values are used in this report.
Relationshipbetweenmineralisationwidths andintercept lengths These relationships are particularly important inthe reporting of Exploration Results.If the geometry of the mineralisation with respectto the drill hole angle is known, its nature shouldbe reported.If it is not known and only the down hole lengthsare reported, there should be a clear statementto this effect (e.g. 'down hole length, true widthnot known'). Drill holes intersected mineralisation at nearperpendicular to the strike orientation of the hostlithologies. All drill holes were orientated at -60degrees on a bearing of 090.
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) andtabulations of intercepts should be included forany significant discovery being reported Theseshould include, but not be limited to a plan viewof drill hole collar locations and appropriatesectional views. See figures in release
Balancedreporting Where comprehensive reporting of all ExplorationResults is not practicable, representativereporting of both low and high grades and/orwidths should be practiced to avoid misleadingreporting of Exploration Results. Representative reporting of significant intercepts hasbeen effected within this report.
Othersubstantiveexploration data Other exploration data, if meaningful andmaterial, should be reported including (but notlimited to): geological observations; geophysicalsurvey results; geochemical survey results; bulksamples – size and method of treatment;metallurgical test results; bulk density,groundwater, geotechnical and rockcharacteristics; potential deleterious orcontaminating substances. The Company has previously reported a MineralResource in accordance with JORC (2012) guidelinesat the Uley 2 deposit.
Further work The nature and scale of planned further work(e.g. tests for lateral extensions or depthextensions or large-scale step-out drilling).Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas ofpossible extensions, including the main geologicalinterpretations and future drilling areas, providedthis information is not commercially sensitive. Further work programs are planned includingmetallurgical test work to ensure optimisation of theUley processing facilities.
