EXTENSIVE PHOSPHATE AND RARE EARTHS MINERAL SYSTEM EMERGING AT CUMMINS RANGE WITH 384 METRE INTERSECTION

Record intercept in first diamond hole plus multiple 100m+ intercepts in RC drilling significantly expands the scale of the Project

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Phosphate intercept of 384.4m at 4% P2O5 and 0.3% TREO in diamond hole CDX0020

  • Multiple strong rare earths zones intersected including 11.6m at 1.9% TREO

  • Outstanding results also received from six reverse circulation (RC) holes including:

  • 153m at 11% P2O5 and 0.4% TREO (CRX0081) including:

    • 20m at 25% P2O5 and 10m at 31% P2O5
  • 4 6m at 1.1% TREO and 15% P2O5 (CRX0074) within a wider phosphate intercept of:

    • 108m at 10% P2O5
  • Results show that Cummins Range is emerging as major phosphate and rare earths system

  • Assays pending from multiple deep diamond holes

RareX Limited ( RareX , the Company ) (ASX: REE) is pleased to report significant new results received from diamond and reverse circulation ( RC ) drilling being undertaken as part of the 2022 growth drilling program at its 100%-owned Cummins Range Rare Earths and Phosphate Project in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.

The first assays for a complete diamond drill hole have been received for CDX0020, which returned an impressive intercept of 384.4m at 4% P2O5 and 0.3% TREO and a high-grade rare earths zone of 11.6m at 1.9% TREO .

Assays have also been received for six RC drill holes which returned wide and high-grade phosphate and rare earths intercepts including 153m at 11% P2O5 and 0.4% TREO from hole CDX0081.

Multiple broad intercepts over one hundred metres have the potential to significantly expand both the rare earths and phosphate components of the Cummins Range deposit and add to the current JORC 2012 Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (at a 0.5% TREO cut-off) of 18.8 million tonnes at 1.15% TREO and 10% P2O5 (ASX: 19 July 2021).

These outstanding results add further momentum to the Cummins Range Project following the delivery of the recent positive Scoping Study (ASX: 12 September 2022) and are expected to further enhance project economics.

RareX Managing Director, Jeremy Robinson, said the initial assay results from deeper drilling had further increased the scale of the Cummins Range deposit and confirmed the presence of a very large mineral system:

“Our deeper drilling has shown that carbonatite pipes are very large mineralising systems capable of hosting millions of tonnes of rare earth oxides and top-quality rock phosphate. We look forward to releasing further results from diamond holes to the south-east, closer to the centre of the system.

“The phosphate mineralisation on the Phos Dyke is shaping up to be a very large body of phoscorite, with the rare earths-rich carbonatite veins reported in this release and in our last announcement proving to be an added bonus.”

Diamond Drill-Hole CDX0020

CDX0020 has intersected numerous phosphate and rare earths zones including 384.4m at 4% P2O5 and 0.3% TREO. The wide zone is centred around the 80m wide Rare Dyke, as shown on Figure 1.

==> picture [596 x 106] intentionally omitted <==

The Rare Dyke and hanging wall/footwall positions have abundant coarse disseminations of apatite with 26 monazite/bastnasite mineralised zones ranging from 0.3m to 11.6m. These zones accumulate to a total of 43m at 1.7% TREO (significant intercepts shown in Table 1). The strongest mineralised zone of 11.6m at 1.9% TREO and 7% P2O5 is located on the hanging wall contact of the Rare Dyke. Multiple rare earth zones above are hosted in carbonatite bands proximal to the Rare Dyke.

Figure 1 shows phosphate intercepts for the drill-holes completed up-dip of hole CDX0020. All of these drill holes have strong phosphate and rare earths mineralisation including CRX0063, which intersected 121m at 7% P2O5 and 1.2% TREO.

All of the drill holes completed up-dip have been stopped in strong phosphate mineralisation, with the footwall position of the Rare Dyke remaining wide open.

Phos Dyke RC Results

Assays for the first three drill holes at the Phos Dyke (CRX0074, CRX0075 and CRX0081) have been received with all three generating intercepts of more than 100m of high-grade phosphate.

The most mineralised was CRX0081, which intersected 153m at 11% P2O5 and 0.4% TREO , including 20m at 25% P2O5 and 0.82% TREO and 10m at 31% P2O5 and 1% TREO. The drill intercepts are shown on Figure 3 and the Percent Metre Contour plan is shown in Figure 5. Significant phosphate intercepts are shown in Table 2.

An additional rare earths domain is also emerging to the north of the Phos Dyke, with the widest intersections being 46m at 1.1% TREO including 1m at 8.2% TREO in hole CRX0075.

A higher-grade zone of 7m at 2.5% TREO was also intersected in the upper 30m of hole CRX0074. Assays are pending for surrounding drill holes to support this new development.

Rare Dyke North-West RC Drilling

Assays have been received for the three RC drill holes (CRX0071, CRX0072 and CRX0073) drilled in the north-western extent of the Rare Dyke, testing along strike of hole CDX0013, which intersected 26m at 2.3% and 13% P2O5 (ASX: 18 January 2022). The location of these holes can be found on Figure 6.

Numerous mineralised zones were intersected in hole CRX0071, including 7m at 1.9% TREO and 6% P2O5, 29m at 0.9% TREO including 5m at 2% and 4m at 2% TREO. All of these intersections are located within a larger phosphate intersection of 98m at 8% P2O5 and 0.7% TREO.

CRX0072 was drilled in front of CRX0071 and intersected 76m at 5% P2O5 and 0.5% TREO, with rare earth intercepts of 4m at 1.4% TREO and 14m at 0.9% TREO.

CRX0073 had narrower rare earths mineralisation and weaker phosphate. These intercepts can be found in the significant intercept Tables 1 and 2. The weaker mineralisation likely marks the northwestern edge of the Rare Dyke.

Cummins Range Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
Criteria JORC Code Explanation
Sampling
techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels,
random chips, or specific specialised industry
standard measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as down hole
gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc).
These examples should not be taken as limiting the
broad meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure
sample representivity and the appropriate calibration
of any measurement tools or systems used.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that
are Material to the Public Report. In cases where
‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be
relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was
used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was
pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In
other cases more explanation may be required, such
as where there is coarse gold that has inherent
sampling problems. Unusual commodities or
mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may
warrant disclosure of detailed information.

The Cummins Range Rare Earth
deposit is being drilled tested with
RC drilling and diamond drilling.

The RC drill rig used a 5 ½ inch
diameter hammer. Each 1m bulk
sample was collected in a plastic bag.

Diamond drill sizes used are PQ, HQ
and NQ2

Each metre was analysed with a
portable XRF, and recovery and
geology logs were completed.

Sample interval selection was based
on geological controls and
mineralisation

Each 1m RC sample has a 4% cone
split from the drill rig. Samples
submitted to the laboratory vary in
length from 1m to 4m.

Each core sample was cut in half with
an automatic core saw. The half core
sample was sent to the laboratory
with intervals ranging from 0.3m to
1.3m.

Samples are assayed for 35 elements
using peroxide fusion with a ICP-OES
and ICP-MS finish
Drilling
Techniques
Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open- hole
hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc)
and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube,
depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other
type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what
_method, etc). _

Prefix CRX drill holes are reverse
circulation (RC) drilling

Prefix CDX are diamond drilling.
Drill Sample
Recovery
Method of recording and assessing core and chip
sample recoveries and results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and
ensure representative nature of the samples.
Whether a relationship exists between sample
recovery and grade and whether sample bias may
have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of
fine/coarse material.

Recoveries for all drill holes were
recorded for each metre.

Recoveries for the RC drilling in this
announcement are >95%

Recoveries for the Diamond drilling
in this announcement are >99%
Logging Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of

detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource
estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in
nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography.
The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.

All metres drilled had a geology log
completed. Geology logs were aided
using geochemical analysis from a
portable XRF.

The detail of logging is appropriated
for Mineral Resource estimation.
Sub-sampling
techniques
and sample
preparation
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter,
half or all core taken.
If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary
split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry.
For all sample types, the nature, quality and
appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.
Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-
sampling stages to maximise representivity of
samples.
Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is
representative of the in situ material collected,
including for instance results for field
duplicate/second-half sampling.
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain
size of the material being sampled.

A 4% split from the cone splitter on
the drill rig is used for the laboratory
assay. Samples are often composited
and samples can range from 1-4m.

This RC sampling technique meets
the industry standards and is
appropriate for this style of
mineralisation and for resource
estimation.

Diamond core was cut in half with an
automatic core saw and half the core
was sent to the laboratory. This is an
appropriate method for this style of
mineralization and for resource
estimation.
Quality of
assay data
and
laboratory
tests
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the
assaying and laboratory procedures used and
whether the technique is considered partial or total
For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF
instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining
the analysis including instrument make and model,
reading times, calibrations factors applied and their
derivation, etc.
Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg
standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory
checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie
lack of bias) and precision have been established.
The reported assays were analysed by
Nagrom. The following techniques
were used:

35 elements were assayed for using
peroxide fusion with a ICP-OES and
ICP-MS finish

In addition to internal checks by
Nagrom, RareX incorporates a
QA/QC sample protocol utilizing
prepared standards, blanks and
duplicates for 8% of all assayed
samples.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
The verification of significant intersections by either
independent or alternative company personnel.
The use of twinned holes.
The verification of significant intersections by either
independent or alternative company personnel.
Discuss any adjustment to assay data.

Significant intercepts were
calculated by RareX geological staff.

The intercepts have not been
verified by independent persons

There are numerous drill holes with
in the Cummins Range resource of
comparable tenure

All assay results are reported to
RareX in parts per million (ppm).

Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill
holes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine
workings and other locations used in Mineral
Resource estimation.
Specification of the grid system used.
Quality and adequacy of topographic control.

Drill hole collars were located by
handheld GPS and DGPS

All coordinates are in MGA Zone 52H
2020

Topographic control is maintained by
the use of previously surveyed drill
holes. The Cummins Range deposit is
located on flat terrain.

Down hole surveys were taken every
10m usingan Axis Gyro tool
Data spacing
and
distribution
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results.
Whether the data spacing and distribution is
sufficient to establish the degree of geological and
grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s)
and classifications applied.
Whether sample compositing has been applied.

CDX0020 was targeting closer to
CDX0016 but the hole dropped
significantly in the upper 300m,
resulting in a 200m gap between
hole CDX0020 and CDX0016. An infill
hole is being drilled between the two
to establish grade continuity. The
exploration team are seeing the
same geological positions
mineralised along strike, suggesting
RareX have a solid geological model,
however this is not supports by
assays as yet.

The purposed of the RC drilling on
the Phos Dyke is to extend the
phosphate and rare earths
mineralization to the north east. Drill
spacing of 40m x 40m grid is
appropriate to establish geological
and grade continuity.

2m to 4m RC composites were
completed in areas where higher
grades were not expected
Orientation of
data in
relation to
geological
structure
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves
unbiased sampling of possible structures and the
extent to which this is known, considering the deposit
type.
If the relationship between the drilling orientation
and the orientation of key mineralised structures is
considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this
should be assessed and reported if material.

The angled drill holes were directed
as best as possible across the known
geology.

CRA Exploration defined REO
mineralisation at Cummins Range in
1978 using predominantly aircore
drilling. Navigator Resources
progressed this discovery with
additional drilling after purchasing
the tenement in 2006. Navigator
announced a resource estimate in
2008. Kimberley Rare Earths drilled
additional holes and upgraded the

Geology Deposit type, geological setting and style of
mineralisation.

The Cummins Range REO deposit
occurs within the Cummins Range
carbonatite complex which is a 2.0
km diameter near-vertical diatreme
pipe that has been deeply
weathered but essentially
outcropping with only thin aeolian
sand cover in places. The diatreme
pipe consists of various mafic to

1000-2000ppm TREO and high
grade zones up to 17% TREO. The
current resource sits primarily
within the oxidised/weathered zone
which extends to 120m below the
surface. Metallurgical studies by
previous explorers and by RareX
show the rare earth elements are
hosted by monazite and bastnasite
which are a common and favourable
hosts for rare earth elements.
Drill hole
information
A summary of all information material to the
understanding of the exploration results including a
tabulation of the following information for all
Material drill holes:

easting and northing of the drill hole collar

elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation
above sea level in metres) of the drill hole
collar

dip and azimuth of the hole

down hole length and interception depth

hole length.
If the exclusion of this information is justified on the
basis that the information is not Material and this
exclusion does not detract from the understanding of
the report, the Competent Person should clearly
explain why this is the case.

All drill hole locations are shown on
the drill plan and collar details are
tabled within the announcement
Data
aggregation
methods
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging
techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade
truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off
grades are usually Material and should be stated.
Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of
high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results,
the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated
and some typical examples of such aggregations should be
shown in detail.

Significant intercepts were
calculated using weighted averaging

A lower cut off grade of 0.5% TREO
was used for the rare earths
intercepts with a maximum of 4m
dilution. The cut off grade and
dilution are thought to be
appropriate due to likely open cut
mining methods that would be used
on the outcropping ore body.

A lower cut off grade of 3% P2O5
was used for the phosphate
intercepts with a maximum of 6m
dilution. The cut offgrade and
The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent
values should be clearly stated.

dilution are thought to be
appropriate due to likely open cut
mining methods that would be used
on the outcropping ore body.

No metal equivalent values have
been used
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept
lengths
These relationships are particularly important in the
reporting of Exploration Results
If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to
the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be
reported.
If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are
reported, there should be a clear statement to this
effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’).

The angled drill holes were directed
as best as possible across the known
geology.

The true widths of the phosphate
and rare earths intercepts in this
announcement are likely >80% of
the true width. The current
geological model interprets the
Phos Dyke and surrounding
lithologies to be similar to the Rare
Dyke dipping to the south west.
Current drilling is aimed at 50
degrees and 60 degrees dip cutting
the interpreted lithologies at a high
angle.
Diagrams Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and
tabulations of intercepts should be included for any
significant discovery being reported These should
include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole
collar locations and appropriate sectional views.

A drill hole plan, sections and
contoured plan view of the Phos
Dyke are included.
Balanced
reporting
Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration
Results is not practicable, representative reporting of
both low and high grades and/or widths should be
practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration
Results.

Reporting is considered balanced
Other
substantive
exploration
data
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material,
should be reported including (but not limited to):
geological observations; geophysical survey results;
geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and
method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk
density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock
characteristics; potential deleterious or
contaminating substances.

RareX have a JORC compliant
resource of 18.8Mt at 1.15% TREO,
0.14% Nb2O3 and 10% P2O5.
