Antimony and gold assay results for the samples collected all contained elevated to high grade antimony contents ranging up to 36.5% Sb (Figure 3), and all contained detectable gold, with values reporting up to 1.12 g/t Au (Table 1).
As can be seen in Table 1, a sample collected from the Eastern Star tailings contains detectable (1ppm) silver and most samples collected contain minimal lead. This highlights both the silver and antimony prospectivity, as it suggests that historical miners effectively extracted silver and lead, leaving behind material dominated by stibnite within the siderite-quartz vein system.

*Cautionary Note on pXRF Data and Visual Estimates : While a handheld XRF can screen samples for geochemical anomalism, it does not provide an accurate elemental concentration, and all data should be viewed as indicative only and may not be representative of the material sampled. The inherit limitations are only a very small sensor window is used which may not represent the entire sample and spectral interference for other elements can interfere with X-ray signals especially since mineralisation is often inhomogeneous and the depth of sampling is restricted to the surface and many low abundance elements are below detection limits. Visual estimates of mineral abundance should never be considered a proxy or substitute for laboratory analyses where concentrations or grades are the factor of principal economic interest. Visual estimates also potentially provide no information regarding impurities or deleterious physical properties relevant to valuations.

Red Mountain’s US-based field team successfully located three historical underground mines and a pit within the Company’s Thompson Falls Antimony Project area[1] (Figure 2). The three underground mines are listed in the Idaho Geological Survey and Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology historical mines databases, with their produced metals listed as silver-lead (Eastern Star), antimony, and antimony-silver-copper-zinc-lead.

Figure 3: Red Mountain’s Thompson Falls Antimony Project and UAMY’s Smelter and Stibnite Hill Antimony Mine and the nearby Silver District. The commodities listed are from Idaho Geological Survey[2] and Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology[3] historical mine databases.
Most of the samples collected by Red Mountain from the Eastern Star closely resemble the quartzstibnite veins mined at UAMY’s Stibnite Hill deposit, ~7km east of Red Mountain’s Thompson Falls Project area, although these veins are not recorded as producing gold. However, the wide variety of listed produced metals for the three workings within the project area suggests that the Thompson Falls Project has potential for the silver-rich polymetallic vein mineralisation that is typical of the rich Coeur d’Alene mineral district that lies immediately west of Red Mountain’s claims (Figure 3).

Located in a prime position, in a globally significant mineralised Antimony-Silver belt
Red Mountain’s Thompson Falls Antimony Project lies at the eastern end of Idaho’s Coeur d’Alene mineral district, which is one of the globe’s largest silver provinces, accounting for ~18% of total accumulated US production, and has also produced significant quantities of lead, zinc, gold, copper and antimony. Recorded metal production for the Coeur d’Alene mineral district between 1884 and 2020[4] totals 1,257Moz Ag, 7.8Mt Pb, 3.0Mt Zn, 1.1Moz Au and 191kt Cu. Production figures for antimony are not readily available and the metal was historically treated as a by-product by many producers. Taylor and Hoffstra (2005)[ 5] estimate that 161kt Sb was produced from the Sunshine Mine, which was also one of the world’s richest and largest silver mines throughout the 20[th] Century before closing in early 2001. Only a small portion of Sunshine’s antimony production is recorded by the Idaho Geology Survey, who detail production of 5.5kt Sb[6,7] between 1982 and 2000. Taylor and Hoffstra (2005)[6] also note production of an unspecified quantity of antimony from the Bunker Hill - Last Chance and Crescent mines. More recently, UAMY and Americas Gold and Silver Corporation ( NYSE: USAS; Market Cap ~AU$3.4 billion ) announced plans to construct an antimony processing plant at USAS Galena Mining Complex in eastern Idaho[8] , which is located approximately 20km west

of Red Mountain’s Thompson Falls project. Galena has historically produced silver, copper and lead from tetrahedrite-dominant ore, treating antimony as a by-product.
As described in Reid (Ed., 1961)[ 9] , polymetallic orogenic vein mineralisation in the Coeur d’Alene mineral district is hosted in Middle Proterozoic (~1,400Ma) low grade metasedimentary rocks of the Belt Supergroup, with most mineralisation hosted in the St. Regis Formation, Upper Revett Formation, Lower Burke Formation and Prichard Formation. Mineralisation occurs as fault-controlled sideritequartz-sulfide veins, with sulfide mineralogy principally comprising silver-rich tetrahedrite [(Cu,Fe,Zn,Ag)12Sb4S13], galena [PbS], sphalerite [(Zn,Fe)S] and chalcopyrite [CuFeS2]. The mineral veins in the district consist principally of siderite (tan-colored iron carbonate) with quartz and sulfide minerals, principally tetrahedrite (a silver-rich, copper-antimony sulfide), galena (lead sulfide), sphalerite (zinc sulfide), and chalcopyrite (copper-iron sulfide). Veins can range in thickness from a few centimetres to several metres in thickness and can be laterally and vertically extensive, extending along strike over more than a kilometre and extending to depths of up to 1.5km. They typically show little evidence of vertical zonation, but can show lateral changes in sulfide mineralogy
Orogenic polymetallic vein-hosted mineralisation is known to extend from the Coeur d’Alene mining district into western Montana. Red Mountain’s Thompson Falls Antimony Project encompasses the Upper Prichard Formation, which hosts mineralisation within the Coeur d’Alene mineral district and is also the host for mineralisation at US Antimony’s nearby Stibnite Hill antimony mine (Figure 2).
Next steps for the Thompson Falls Antimony Project
With the spring season commencing, Red Mountain’s United States field team plans to undertake further reconnaissance exploration and sampling over the project area to locate any additional undocumented historical mines or mineralised exposures. Red Mountain also plans to further inspect and seek to sample the underground mines already located, to better understand the nature of mineralisation present at these prospects, prior to designing the next stage of exploration to explore the resource potential of the Thompson Falls Project. Red Mountain has already engaged specialist permitting talent, to assist with the anticipated drilling process at the Thompson Falls Antimony Project.

JORC Code, 2012 Edition - Table 1
1.1 Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| Sampling techniques |
• Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. 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. |
• Grab samples were collected from tailings associated with historical workings or nearby outcrop. The sampling was biased towards those samples with visible mineralisation or alteration that may contain mineralisation. • These grab samples are not considered representative of the mineralisation but were part of due diligence exercise to see if mineralisation exists and what metals were present. • Each sample consisted of approximately 1-2kg of rock, all samples were analysed at ALS in Twin Falls (USA) by multiple methods, Sb by AA08 potassium chlorate/HCL digest AAS finish, Au by AA25, lead flux fire assay and AAS, trace elements by 4 acid digest and ICP-AES finish (ME-ICP61a). • The pXRF readings quoted in this report was taken using a Niton pXRF from the grab sample and biased towards visible mineralisation. • The historical production and assays referenced in this report are not JORC compliant and details on the mining/sampling techniques are unknown. |
| Drilling techniques |
• Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open- hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (e.g. 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). |
• No drilling reported |
| 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 mayhave occurred due topreferential |
• No drilling reported. |

• Rock sample spacing was biased towards the known mining pit areas where antimony was recovered and adjacent outcrops. • The reporting of the results in this release is to indicate that mineralisation exists in the area, but no resource is presented in this release. The ground has been historically mined via an adit but no production figures appear to be reported. • No analytical compositing has been reported. |
| 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. |
• Rock samples biased to known exploited mineralisation areas and not oriented being taken from mine tailings or adjacent outcrop. • No drilling conducted. |
| Sample security |
• The measures taken to ensure sample security. |

1.2 Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results
(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)
| Criteria | JORC Code explanation | Commentary |
|---|---|---|
| Mineral tenement and land tenure status |
• Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material issues with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests, historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings. • The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area. |
• The licence area 702.44 acres consist of 36 mining claims, TED1-5, WIK1-14 & TF1-17 and straddle Idaho (Shoshone County) and Montana (Sanders County) The claims are wholly owned by RMX • The claims are granted, and no known impediments are recorded. |
| Exploration done by other parties |
• Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties. |
• No reported exploration or mine production is reported in the RMX claims. |
| Geology | • Deposit type, geological setting, and style of mineralisation. |
• Red Mountain’s Thompson Falls Antimony Project lies at the eastern end of Idaho’s Coeur d’Alene mineral district, known for polymetallic orogenic vein style mineralisation hosted in Middle Proterozoic (~1,400Ma) low grade metasedimentary rocks of the Belt Supergroup. Most of the mineralisation is in the St. Regis Formation, Upper Revett Formation, Lower Burke Formation and Prichard Formation. • Mineralisation occurs as fault-controlled siderite-quartz-sulphide veins, with sulphide mineralogy principally comprising silver-rich tetrahedrite, galena, sphalerite, and chalcopyrite. • Veins can range in thickness from a few centimetres to several meters in thickness and can be laterally and vertically extensive, extending along strike over more than a kilometre and extending to depths of up to 1.5km. They typically show little evidence of vertical zonation but can show lateral changes in sulphide mineralogy. |
| 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: |
• No drilling conducted |

o easting and northing of the drill holecollar o elevation or RL (Reduced Level –elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar o dip and azimuth of the holeo down hole length and interceptiondepth o 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 whythis is the case. |
||
| Data aggregation methods |
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (e.g. 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. • The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
• No aggregated methods are reported |
| 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 (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |
• No relationship is made between mineralisation width and intercept lengths |
| 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 |
• Appropriate location diagrams are presented in the text. These diagrams are indicative only as no assumptions of grade, extent or depth are made. |

| 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. |
• Only pertinent results are given as due to the relevance of the announcement. • Not all pXRF samples were tabled but key parameters have been tabled and selected images provided in the key elements |
| 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. |
• There is no other substantive exploration data provided or withheld as this announcement deals with this early phase exploration target. |
| Further work | • The nature and scale of planned further work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling). • Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive. |
• Additional rock chip assay results are pending from late 2025 sampling, these results may influence further work. • Ground access is subject to improving weather conditions. • Additional reconnaissance exploration and sampling is planned over the project area including targeting any additional undocumented historical mine workings and/or mineralised exposures. • The plan includes to further inspect and, where safe, access and sample the underground workings already located, to better understand the nature of mineralisation present at these prospects. • Diagrams of the sampling positions have been provided in the text. |
