Review of operations

Review of operations

During the half-year ended 31 December 2024, the following activities occurred:

Exploration Activities in Western Australia

Andover Project

During the quarter the Company provided a progress report on its plans to drill the priority lithium-bearing pegmatite targets at the Andover South Project area (E47/4061 & E47/4062)[1] . The Company reported that the State Deed for the Andover South Lithium Project (E47/4062) had been executed by the Ngarluma Aboriginal Corporation (“NAC”) and the tenement vendor[1] . The State Deed was subsequently submitted to the Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (“DEMIRS”), and following this, tenement E47/4062 was granted. The Company also announced that tenement E47/4061 was renewed for a further five-year term. In parallel with the administrative advancement of the project, the Company completed its preparations for the drilling campaign on the key target areas, with drilling on Andover South commencing for an initial 5,000 metres with an election to expand the program to 10,000 metres[2] .

As a result of an ongoing mapping program, the Company announced the definition of a new high-priority target area on the Andover South lithium project - Target Area 7[3] . Target Area 7 – is located on the north-western part of E47/4062 tenement. The area is characterized by a swarm of North-West trending pegmatites over an approximate strike extent of 650m. According to K/Rb ratio analysis, the pegmatites are highly fractionated and considered to be highly prospective for LCT mineralisation. Management believe that Area 7 may represent a dislocated strike extent of high priority Target Area 1.

During the quarter, the Company announced the results of a district scale interpretation of the Andover Complex structural framework and controls on defined mineralisation[4] . The preliminary interpretation has identified that the pegmatites at Andover South on E47/4061 and E47/4062, appear to be hosted within the same structural North-East trend, which hosts mineralised lithium pegmatites of Azure Minerals Limited Andover Project, located on the adjacent tenement. Furthermore, in both instances, the mineralisation defined to date appears to be associated with second order north-east and north-north-east striking faults, which are further displaced by post mineralisation faulting.

The Company also announced that it had engaged a new technical team to lead the exploration program on the Andover North & South projects[5] . The team consists of geologists who have extensive experience in lithium exploration and in particular within the Andover Complex, on the Andover lithium discovery with Azure Minerals Ltd.

Raiden Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2024

==> picture [86 x 28] intentionally omitted <==

During the reporting period the Company initiated the maiden drilling program over the Andover South lithium-bearing pegmatite targets at the Andover South Project area (E47/4061 & E47/4062)[1] . The program was executed by multiple diamond drill rigs and >7,000 metres of diamond drilling was completed by the end of the quarter. The program focused on the highest priority targets, which were defined on the basis of field work executed over the previous year. The initial key targets were Target Areas 1 and 2, which are characterised by outcropping, highly fractionated pegmatites and that yielded high-grade Li2O rock samples over a multi kilometre trend. The Company further expanded the drilling program to drill test Target Area 3 with a single drill hole, as well as Target Area 7, where 4 drill holes were completed by the end of the quarter.

During the reporting period, the Company provided updates in regard to ongoing drilling progress on the project and available results.

Target Area 7

The first diamond drillhole completed in Target Area 7, ASDD023[3] , intersected a broad zone of what are interpreted to be a multiphase pegmatite, hosted by biotite-altered porphyritic dykes and intrusions. Individual pegmatite intersections within the zone are up to 57m thick[A] . Management’s current interpretation, is that these pegmatites are hosted within a significant structural corridor, which has accommodated significant pegmatitic intrusions.

ADownhole width is not equivalent to true thickness. Structural measurement and analysis of drill core is ongoing to establish the true orientation of the pegmatite.

Raiden Resources Limited Directors' report 31 December 2024

==> picture [86 x 28] intentionally omitted <==

The second hole drilled in Target Area 7, ASDD025[4] , is located approximately 315m along strike to the southeast of ASDD023. ASDD025 has intersected a swarm of pegmatites extending across 250 metres[A] downhole. The Company believes that this swarm of pegmatites may represent the strike extension of the pegmatite zone intercepted in ASD0023.

Target Area 1 and 2

During the reporting period assays received for the first 12 holes of maiden drill program at Andover South, where Initial drilling concentrated in the centre of tenement E47/4062 in Target Area 1 and 2. Widest intersection reported was 15.3 metres[A] @ 0.53% Li2O and highest individual grade assays above 2% Li2O[3] . Initial interpretation indicates that the pegmatite system in this area dips at a very shallow angle to the north and is hosted within massive and structurally undisturbed gabbro. This low-angle dip deviated from field observations to date, where steeply dipping pegmatites (that dip to the north and to the south) have been observed. Further pegmatite intersections at greater depths point to a potential stacked system with the potential for repetitions at depth. On the basis of these observations and the intercept of a major pegmatite-bearing zone within Target Area 7, management believe that the drilling to date conducted at Andover South Target Area 1 and 2 has only tested the upper parts of the system and the main structural targets remain untested and potentially located further south from limits of current drilling.

Mt Sholl Project

During the reporting period, the Company announced that First Quantum Minerals completed an archaeological/anthropological heritage survey, with the Ngarluma Aboriginal Corporation (“NAC”), over the priority copper-nickel-PGE targets at the Mt Sholl Project area[6] . First Quantum Minerals conducted the heritage survey as part of its activities under the memorandum of understanding (“MOU”)[7] , with First Quantum Minerals sole funding all the base metal related activities on the Mt Sholl project. The two-day Mt Sholl heritage survey was completed on the 17th August 2024 and covered those areas that First Quantum Minerals has been assessing for drill testing. Commencement of the drill campaign on the project was planned for the fourth quarter of 2024.

During the reporting period, the Company also announced receipt of the final heritage report for the Mt Sholl Project from the Ngarluma Aboriginal Corporation (NAC), which indicated that no areas of cultural heritage would impact on the planned drilling program[6] . Furthermore, the PoW for the planned program was approved. First Quantum Minerals commenced the drilling program on the Mt Sholl project, with 2,467 metres of Reverse Circulation drilling completed in 10 holes by the end of the working season in December. The program was designed to test new targets defined by First Quantum Minerals, as well as direct extensions of the mineral resource and the JORC Exploration Target previously defined by the Company. The program was managed and financed by First Quantum Minerals under the MOU in place relating to the Mt Sholl project[7] .

Arrow Project

During the reporting period, the Company announced that it had completed an archaeological/anthropological heritage survey[8] , with the elders and senior representatives of Kariyarra Pirnthurrna claimant group (“Pirnthurrna”), in conjunction with its partner Mallina Co Pty Ltd (“Mallina”)[9] , over its exciting gold targets at the Arrow Project area (E47/3476). Subject to the final report confirming the outcome of the heritage survey, Mallina intended to conduct an air-core drilling program before the end of 2024, to test potential gold targets. Mallina has committed to a minimum exploration expenditure of $600k, which shall include at least 3,000 metres of AC drilling within 12 months of execution of the agreement (Minimum Obligation period).

During the reporting period, the Company also announced that it had received all necessary regulatory approvals and heritage survey approvals for the Arrow gold project and that the Joint Venture partner (Mallina Co Pty Ltd)[10 ] had commenced with an aircore (“AC”) drilling campaign on the Arrow Gold Project. The objective of the AC drilling program was to evaluate Hemi-style orogenic gold targets previously identified by Raiden on tenement E47/3476. These targets are associated with felsic magnetic intrusive bodies, shear zones and hydrothermal alteration[12] .

The drilling program, was completed during the reporting period[11] and comprised of 79 drill holes for 3,007m, targeting six areas considered prospective for this style of mineralisation, which were previously based on soil sampling programs and magnetic data evaluations. The samples have been dispatched to the laboratory for analysis.

During the quarter, the Company undertook no further field activities on the project. The Company continued planning activities in regard to a drilling program scheduled to commence in Q1’2025. The Company has expanded the planned drilling program on the project for up to 3,000 metres from the initial 1,000 metres planned.

Zlatusha

Throughout the reporting period, no further work was undertaken on the project by Velocity Minerals, as per the option/earn-in agreement, as announced by the Company on the 24th of January 2023[13]

Under the terms of the agreement executed between the parties, Velocity Minerals have the option to earn into a 75% project level interest by sole funding and completing a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), which will be based on a minimum of 40,000 metres of exploration drilling, as well as making cash and stock payments of C$1m to Raiden over the term of the agreement. To date, Velocity has made the first stage payment of C$220k to Raiden in the form of Velocity stock and has also undertaken the maintenance of all Zlatusha project work program and environmental bank guarantees.

Exploration Activities in Serbia

Donje Nevlje

No field activities were undertaken during the reporting period. Management continues to engage with potential strategic partners regarding the Donje Nevlje project.

Note 1. Material accounting policy information

Statement of compliance

These general purpose financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2024 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Corporations Act 2001 , as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.

This half-year financial report does not include full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Therefore, it cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and cash flows of the consolidated entity as in the full financial report. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2024 and any public announcements made by the Company during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .

Basis of preparation

This half-year consolidated financial report has been prepared on a historical cost basis. Cost is based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets. The Company is domiciled in Australia and all amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.

The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, unless otherwise stated.

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted

The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

Note 2. Operating segments

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the Members of Raiden Resources Limited

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Raiden Resources Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Consolidated Entity) which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2024, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, notes comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration of the consolidated entity comprising the Company and the entities it controlled at the halfyear end or from time to time during the half-year.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Raiden Resources Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the Consolidated Entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2024 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , which has been given to the directors of Raiden Resources Limited, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.

Directors' Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of Raiden Resources Limited are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the Consolidated Entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2024 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
