Resource Observations

Resource Observations
-
Multiple mineralised lodes modelled, along 2.8 km
-
of strike length at surface, comprising the Mine Lode
and associated footwall and hanging wall lodes
along the main trend corridor
-
Maximum depth of the Mine Lode interpretation is
-
to approximately -600mRL, 1,060m below the natural surface
-
Opportunity for open pits to be mined concurrently with a high-grade underground operation
-
Longer term – larger scale open pit expansion
-
opportunity
-
Exploration is ongoing with Resource growth likely
-

Resource Observations (Cont’d)
Resource Observations
-
A significant increase in ounces per vertical metre was achieved in the recent resource upgrade to an average of 4,000 ounces per vertical metre (ovm) between surface and 160m below surface (2,900 ovm 160m to 750m below surface)
-
Resource growth to April 2022 being lateral in two aspects:
-
To the north including the Link area; and
-
New lodes discovered in the hanging-wall of the previously
- interpreted lodes
-
Ounce per vertical metre metrics compare favourably to existing Western
Australian gold operations and indicate robust conceptual economics

Metallurgy
==> picture [125 x 70] intentionally omitted <==
Main Ore Non - Sulphide Types at Youanmi Sulphide
Readily extractible via CIL. Most of this material is in the near surface resource. Some material also within quartz rich lodes in the Underground.
Fine gold associated with Pyrite (75%); and gold associated with Arsenopyrite (25%) which is easily floatable in a simple proven process flow circuit. Concentrate cleaned to make an easily marketable low As saleable concentrate.
==> picture [361 x 207] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [369 x 199] intentionally omitted <==
Concentrates achieve very high metallurgical recoveries, and with high Au con grades and low As impurity grades high payability is achievable – in the order of 95% gold content.
In today’s cost environment, with a keen focus on return for capital (capex reduction) concentrate sales presents as a compelling opportunity that wasn’t available to sulphide ores previously.
Combination of Concentrate Sales and CIL Bullion Production preferred process pathway for Youanmi as there is a substantial capital and operating cost benefit in comparison with other options.
• Based on 2021 testwork results refer ASX announcement 21[st] December 2021 ** Based on recent concentrate market public knowledge.
13
Gold Deportment and Past Observations
==> picture [125 x 70] intentionally omitted <==
From RXL’s recent work simplified metallurgy is as follows:
-
1.0Moz Au Near Surface Resource (surface to 160m depth) = free milling
-
2.2Moz Au Underground Resource = sulphide associated . Only 25% of this material is Arsenopyrite and needs extra oxidation. 75% is “conventional” milling .
-
With only partial Sulphur Oxidation (33%) gold leach extraction is 90-95%

Conceptual Process Flowsheet
==> picture [125 x 70] intentionally omitted <==
Process Flowsheet
- The process flow builds on a standard CIL circuit to include a sulphide flotation circuit which captures most of the gold bearing mineralisation into a concentrate which is then cleaned to optimise final gold grade. The concentrate is dried to a suitable moisture content, loaded into 1 tonne bulk bags which are stacked into standard 20 foot sea containers and trucked using triple road trains to Perth (Fremantle Port) where 95% payment is received. From there ships are loaded and make way to final destinations (depending on purchaser).

Scoping Study Update - Youanmi Gold Project
==> picture [125 x 70] intentionally omitted <==
Progress update
-
Given the current market conditions, which include significant cost pressures being experienced by producers, various options and trade-off’s are being studied, including:
-
an initial smaller scale operation, with low upfront capital expenditure that can then be scaled up once the operation is in steady state; and
-
larger scale initial operation with higher NPV albeit with higher upfront capital expenditure
-
Significant infrastructure is in place at Youanmi which can be leveraged off to reduce upfront capital expenditure
-
Scoping Study results anticipated to be announced to the market in 3[rd] quarter 2022

Drilling Campaign Ongoing
-
Drilling is ongoing at the Mt Fisher Gold Project with a focus on the Damsel, Dam and Galway target areas.
-
Exceptional results received from RXL’s December 2021 drilling campaign from these prospects.
-
MFRC081: 18m @ 6.99g/t Au from 69m, including 10m @ 10.27g/t Au from 74m at the Damsel Prospect
-
MFRC075: 13m @ 6.81g/t Au from 45m, including 9m @ 8.89g/t Au from 47m and 4m @ 2.59g/t Au from 67m at the Galway Prospect
-
High gold grades intersected across broad widths at the Damsel Prospect. Mineralisation is open down dip and down plunge .
-
Drilling intersected significant gold mineralisation at all target areas . The extensive nature and continuity of the gold mineralisation throughout the project area indicates the greenstone belt has strong potential for major new gold discoveries .
