Location of Rumble Projects - Multiple Avenues to Discovery


1. EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
1.1 Earaheedy Zn-Pb-Ag-Mn Project, Wiluna, Western Australia
The Earaheedy Project is located approximately 110km northeast of Wiluna, Western Australia. Rumble owns 75% of E69/3464 and Zenith Minerals Ltd (ASX: ZNC) owns 25%. Rumble has applied (100%) for two contiguous exploration licenses ELA69/3787 and ELA69/3862, south and west of E69/3464. The entire project area covers the inferred unconformity contact between the overlying Frere Iron Formation and underlying Yelma Formation of the Palaeoproterozoic Earaheedy Basin. On April 2021 Rumble announced a major Zinc-Lead Discovery with 'Tier 1' deposit potential at the Earaheedy Project (see ASX Announcement 19 April 2021) and since then have been rapidly advancing the discovery. There are three main prospects within E69/3464, Chinook and Magazine/Navajoh which lie 12km apart. Within the project area, Rumble controls 45km of prospective mineralised strike which has the potential for multiple large tonnage Zn – Pb deposits – (See image 1 and 2).

RC Drill Program – Chinook Zinc-Lead-Silver-Manganese Discovery
The current exploration drilling program at Earaheedy has been expanded to 40,000m (refer to ASX announcement from 23rd August 2021) and is designed to define the limits of the flat to gently northeast dipping Zn-Pb-Ag-(Mn) mineralisation associated with the unconformity that forms the hiatus between the overlying Palaeoproterozoic Frere Iron formation and the underlying Palaeoproterozoic Yelma Formation (lower section of the Tooloo Group) at the Chinook Prospect. Drill scoping is also occurring at the Magazine and Navajoh Zn-Pb Prospects that lie 7 and12km respectively southeast of the Chinook prospect, whilst also targeting new discoveries along the 17km strike of the interpreted mineralised unconformity within E69/3464 (see Image 2).
Latest Drilling Results - Chinook Prospect (E69/3464)
- Zinc-Lead (Zn-Pb) mineralisation envelope has increased by 224%, to 4.1km strike and 1.9km down dip length since the June Quarter and remains open in all directions
- Significant Zn-Pb mineralisation is modelled to extend west across the boundary of tenement E69/3464 (RTR 75% JV) into Rumble's 100% owned ELA69/3787, which has an additional 12kms of untested strike along the prospective unconformity to the Sweetwater Zn-Pb Prospect, providing further potential to significantly increase the known footprint at Chinook
- Nearly 35,000m of RC drilling has been completed at Earaheedy with only 9,000m of RC assay results (~25%) reported due to the high levels of exploration in Western Australia and industry wide laboratory turnaround issues (refer to RTR ASX Release 23/8/2021 - Exploration Update)
- RC drill results to date (>2% Zn + Pb Cut Off) include:
- 15m @ 4.02% Zn + Pb, 4.86 g/t Ag from 116m (EHRC089)⃰ within 27m @ 2.54% Zn + Pb from 115m

Multiple Mineralisation Styles and Potential in the District (image 2)
As the RC drill scoping has continued, the footprint of the very large Earaheedy Zn-Pb-Ag-Mn system has increased. Additionally, a number of styles of primary mineralisation have now been encountered over a broadly tested 17 km of strike between Chinook, Magazine and Navajoh.
Unconformity Hosted Zn-Pb-Ag-Mn Sulphide Types
• 21m @ 16 g/t Ag from 88m (EHRC251)⃰
- Carbonate Hosted Style Sphalerite-Galena-Pyrite-(Manganese) Dominant
- Silica Replacement of Carbonate Hosted Style
- Clastic Hosted Style Sphalerite-Galena-Pyrite
- o Higher grade associated with coarser grain siliciclastic sediment Matrix replacement
Shale Hosted Sulphide Type
- Footwall Shale Hosted Zinc-Galena-Silver-Pyrite
- o Footwall shale locally known as Purple Shale (oxidized)
- o Associated with footwall structures (feeders)
- o Increase in anomalous copper and elevated arsenic.
MVT Sulphide Type
Historic exploration (RGC) focused on the main carbonate units that lie deeper under the Frere Iron Formation. MVT (Mississippi Valley Type) Zn dominant mineralisation included
- MVT high angle Zinc-Lead-Pyrite sulphide breccias
- Stratabound (conformable) Zn
- o Zn replacement disseminated and dissolution controlled Silica Overprint.

Other Types
- Fault Related Epigenetic Cu-Ag
- o High grade Ag with strong Cu zonation
Exploration to the south of the Project area by Strickland Metals has also reported significant Zn-Pb-Ag-Mn mineralisation with assays including 23m @ 5.5% Zn + Pb in the Iroquois Carbonate Member at the Iroquois Zn-Pb-Mn Prospect – refer to image 2 for location (refer ASX announcement by Strickland Metals – ASX: STK – 14/10/2021). The drilling has demonstrated the lower Iroquois Carbonate Member is very prospective for MVT (Mississippi Valley Type) high-grade Zn-Pb-Ag lodes in association with basement/footwall feeder faults.
Within the Earaheedy tenement E69/3464, the top of the Iroquois Carbonate Formation has been intersected below the footwall shale in recent drilling (assays pending) by Rumble. At this stage the drilling by Rumble has not targeted MVT mineralization or the Iroquois Carbonate Formation. Based on the depth to the top of the Iroquois Carbonate Formation below the recent Rumble drilling at Chinook, Magazine and Navajoh on tenement E69/3464, the Iroquois Carbonate Formation is modelled to reach surface 2-5km to the south and southwest in Rumble's application ELA69/3787 (see images 1 and 2).
Ongoing Exploration Steps
- RC drill scoping of Chinook, Magazine and Navajoh
- o 40,000m RC program ongoing Likely to expand due to increase in mineralised footprint
- Diamond core drilling
- o Clastic hosted Zn-Pb-Ag and footwall shale hosted sulphide mineralisation to be targeted
- Sonic drilling
- o Reasonable recovery at EHS001 and EHS002 compared to diamond core drilling has given Rumble confidence to restart the Sonic drill testing.
- o Sonic drilling of different mineralisation styles, including oxide.
- Metallurgy
- o Diamond and Sonic drilling to be used for initial metallurgical sighter programs
- Geophysics
- o Airborne Magnetics planned over Applications
- o Analysis of Gravity and passive Seismic ongoing
First Stage Exploration Target
Rumble's Zn-Pb exploration target at the Earaheedy Project is between 100 to 120 million tonnes at a grade ranging between 3.5% Zn-Pb to 4.5% Zn-Pb. The exploration target is at a shallow depth (120m), and over 40kms of prospective strike (completely open) has been defined within the Earaheedy Project. The potential quantity and grade of the exploration target is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.
The exploration target, being conceptual in nature, takes no account of geological complexity, possible mining method or metallurgical recovery factors. The exploration target has been estimated in order to provide an assessment of the potential for large-scale Zn-Pb deposits within the Earaheedy Project. The exploration target has been prepared and reported in accordance with the 2012 edition of the JORC Code.

| Earaheedy Zn-Pb Project - Exploration Target | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Range | Tonnes | Grade | |||
| Lower | 100,000,000 | $3.5%$ Zn + Pb | |||
| Upper | 120,000,000 | $4.5%$ Zn + Pb |
Table 1: Near surface exploration target down to 100 metres - shallow depth
The potential quantity and grade of the exploration target is conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.
The exploration target is based on the current geological understanding of the mineralisation geometry, continuity of mineralisation and regional geology. This understanding is provided by an extensive drill hole database, regional mapping, coupled with understanding of the host stratigraphic sequence.
Included in the data on which this exploration target has been prepared is recent RC drilling of seventeen (17) holes for approximately 2,500m (RC/Diamond), thirty (30) holes for 2,690m (three RC stages), eighty-eight (88) RC holes for 14,988m recently completed (ongoing) and diamond drilling of four (4) holes for 1,199.8m completed by Rumble along with sixty-four (64) historic RC drill holes completed within the project area (E69/3464) by previous explorers (refer historical exploration results in previous ASX announcements dated 5 February 2019 and 12 October 2017, 23rd January 2020 which continue to apply and have not materially changed).
Some of the considerations in respect of the estimation of the exploration target include:
- Drilling results have demonstrated strong continuity of shallow, flat lying mineralisation;
- Over 45km's of prospective strike and open (refer image 2);
- Minimum 600m of width (based on shallow 7.5° and shallow depth to 120m, based on drilling results;
- True width (thickness) of mineralisation up to 34 metres received in drilling results; and
- Specific gravity (SG) of 2.5 (world average SG of sandstone not accounting for metal).
The Company intends to test the exploration target with drilling and this further drilling is expected to extend over approximately 12 months. Grade ranges have been either estimated or assigned from lower and upper grades of mineralisation received in drilling results. A classification is not applicable for an exploration target.
1.2 Western Queen Au Project, Mt Magnet, Western Australia
The Western Queen Gold Project lies 110km NW of Mt Magnet within the Yalgoo mineral field of Western Australia comprising two 100% owned mining leases M59/45 and M59/208 and 2 exploration tenements E20-0967 and E59-2443 which are also 100% RTR. The Project is located within a 110km radius of three operating gold processing facilities.
During the quarter Rumble announced an updated resource:
- A new independent Indicated & Inferred JORC 2012 Mineral Resource of 2.1Mt grading 2.42 g/t Au for 163,268 oz Au has been estimated for the 100% owned Western Queen Project
- Mineral Resource Estimate ounces increased by 35%
- Indicated ounces increased by 145%
- Western Queen South & Western Queen Central deposits remain open at depth
- Rumble owns 35km of the Western Queen Shear Zone which hosts the Western Queen resources, with exceptional potential for further discoveries & delineation of new mineral resources – See image 7

Next Steps
• Planned exploration on newly granted E20/967

1.3 Lamil Gold-Copper JV Project, Paterson Province, Western Australia
The Lamil Project is located in between the major mining operations of the Nifty Cu mine and the large Telfer Au-Cu mine within the Paterson Province, East Pilbara, Western Australia (see Image 8).
In July 2019 Rumble signed a $10m Farm Out of the Lamil Project with AIC Mines (ASX: A1M). AIC can earn a 50% interest by spending $6 million over 4 years. Thereafter AIC can earn a further 15% by spending $4 million over 1 year if Rumble elects not to contribute.
The Lamil Dome target exhibits the key structural features required to host a Telfer-style dome deposit (32Moz Au, 1Mt Cu resource) which lies 30km to the northeast of Rumble's Lamil

Dome Target (see Image 8). Image 8: Lamil Project location and Targets

Image 9. Lamil Project - Schematic cross section illustrating relative positions of Key Targets Areas with respect to interpreted geology
RC Drilling Program Commenced
During the quarter, JV Partner AIC Mines (ASX: A1M) announced a 10,000m reverse circulation (RC) drilling program had commenced in September 2021. A total of 23 holes for 4,738m were completed by the end of the September 2021 Quarter as per AIC's ASX announcement 20th October 2021. Further information is also contained in AIC's ASX announcement released on 6th September 2021.
Seven holes were drilled on the eastern margin of the Lamil Main Dome (Image 10) aimed at intersecting the mafic intrusive that was intersected in the 2020 drilling program, and which returned the better Cu-Au mineralisation.

The intrusive has now been defined over a strike length of approximately 4 kilometres and again chalcopyrite and pyrite were observed associated with the contact between the mafic and host sediments.
Thirteen holes were drilled at the Desert Pea target (Image 10). The aim of the program was to determine the nature of a magnetic anomaly associated with an interpreted NE trending fault. While the program appears to have been successful in confirming the presence of the interpreted fault, the cover depth was greater than modelled and contains a considerable component of magnetically responsive gravels which contribute to the overall magnetic response and makes the discrimination of basement responses from that of cover difficult. However, strong alteration and the presence of sphalerite and pyrite was intersected in two adjacent holes proximal to the fault.

Image 10: Location of prospects with planned and completed drilling on a RTP aeromagnetic image
Three holes were completed at the Goodenia target (Image 10), a conceptual base metal target defined by coincident magnetic and gravity anomalies located on the eastern margin of a soil Cu-Pb-Zn geochemical anomaly. Carbonaceous sediments were intersected in an area of shallower than modelled cover. Sulphides (predominately pyrite) associated with intervals of brecciation with silica-carbonate infill, and moderate to intensive intervals of bleaching and silicification were observed in the holes situated above the modelled gravity and magnetic anomaly centres.

Drilling is also planned at the Hovea target, a coincident magnetic and gravity anomaly at a prominent flexure in the NNW trending stratigraphy proximal to the regionally significant Table Top-Camel fault zone and a NE trending cross fault (Image 11). The target is interpreted as hosted within the Broadhurst Formation and thus represents a Niftystyle sediment hosted copper target.

Geophysics
• An Airborne Electromagnetic (AEM) survey was flown over the western margin of the northern tenement and the majority of the southern tenement on 250m spaced lines for a total of 2,600 line kilometres by Geotech Airborne in mid-August. The survey has the potential for both direct detection of sulphide mineralisation but will also complement other geophysical datasets for mapping stratigraphic units under cover sediments and thus provide context for future targeting. Processing is underway.
Next Steps
• The current drilling program is expected to be completed in November 2021. Given the large backlog of samples at Western Australian assay laboratories, assay results are not expected until very late in the December 2021 Quarter and probably into the March 2022 Quarter.

1.4 Braeside and Warroo Projects, East Pilbara Western Australia
The Braeside and Warroo Projects (see Image 12) are located east of Marble Bar in the East Pilbara Region of Western Australia. The Braeside Project is held 100% by Rumble and comprises of 4 granted exploration licences (E45/2032, E45/4368, E45/4873 and E45/4874) with an area of 670 km². The project hosts a regional scale porphyry epithermal and potential VMS province fracture system over 60km in strike and 8km wide.
Over 30 high priority base metal targets have been generated including:
- Barkers Well Prospect 800m long fracture zone with multiple high grade Pb breccia pipes
- Camel Hump Cu Prospect - Wide zone of oxide stringer copper mineralisation hosted in volcaniclastic siltstone and shale – VMS Potential
The Rumble 100% owned Warroo Project consists of 2 granted exploration licences (E45/5366 and E45/5689) with an area of 793 km². The host lithology to the copper mineralisation at Camel Hump has similar characteristics to the Warroo Hill Member lithologies. The Camel Hump and Warroo Hill Member lithologies lie within the same corridor with respect to strike and structure and represents a potential new VMS Province.
During the quarter:
- An orientation IP survey was completed to test both the north and south breccia zones at Barkers Well to aid in targeting deeper high-grade mineralisation positions for RC and Diamond drilling. Results will be announced once Rumble's technical team has analysed the data.
- Airborne TEM over the Camel Hump prospect and Warroo Synform (located within the Warroo project area) has been completed and was aimed at discovering conductors for drill testing. Results will be announced once Rumble's technical team has analysed the data.

Next Steps
• RC drilling of any high priority targets identified in the IP and Airborne TEM surveys

1.5 Munarra Gully Au-Cu-Ag-Zn Project, Cue District, Murchison, WA
The Munarra Gully Project is located some 50km NNE of the town of Cue within the Murchison Goldfields of Western Australia. Rumble owns 80% of E51/1677 and 100% of ELA51/1919 and ELA51/1927 (see Image 13).
At the Amaryllis Prospect, Rumble has defined a large-scale gold-copper-silver system over 2.3km's in strike that remains open under shallow cover (10 to 40 metres) coincident with a major north-south trending shear zone . This 2.3km of mineralised strike has only been partly tested by Rumble on wide spaced drill traverses. Recent regional reconnaissance exploration which involved mapping and relogging all available historic drill-holes has inferred the highly mineralised regionally extensive Amaryllis Shear zone extends over 15km to the north under cover. This priority target remains to be drill tested.
The style of mineralisation at Munarra Gully has very similar characteristics to the Chibougamau Au-Cu-Ag shear vein style deposits located in the eastern part of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt in Quebec, Canada. Of note: the Chibougamau Au-Cu-Ag shear vein style deposits have produced 3.5 million oz (gold) and 1 million copper metal tonnes at an average weighted grade of 1.76% Cu and 2.05 g/t Au. Some of the deposits at Chibougamau have been mined down to 1.1km in depth.

Table 1: Mineral Resource Estimate Tabulation for the Western Queen Project
Footnote: The pit optimisation has shown that much of the resource has the potential to be mined economically, and further mining studies are warranted to further progress the project. Mineral Resources that are not Ore Reserves have not demonstrated economic viability at this point. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues. Mining Method refers to either open cut (OC) or Underground (UG).
