Strategic Goal Setting

Objective:

Advanced-Stage Project Acquisition

  • The Company is seeking to complement its existing portfolio of early-stage exploration assets with a high calibre more advanced stage project.

  • We have spent the last several months undertaking a strategic search and have conducted due diligence on multiple (> 25) opportunities.

  • Search ongoing for the right asset.

  • Existing exploration projects (Meekatharra & Paddys Well) will be advanced in parallel

WHY?

  • Resources and team in place to quickly advance such a project

  • ➢ Significant technical experience (geology & metallurgy / processing) including several international projects

  • Market is seeking & rewarding advanced projects

  • Strong cash position (A$7M)

  • Very clean corporate structure

Project Portfolio - Australia

Primary Focus Project 1:

Meekatharra Project

  • Located in the prolific Gold & Critical Metals Murchison region in Western Australia.

  • Centrally located in a highly productive (35M oz +) and prospective Archean gold province with 4 camps hosting > 2Moz thus far.

  • Largely underexplored, despite its proximity to numerous historical and active open pits and underground mines, and geologically prospective structures.

  • Several reconnaissance rock chips have confirmed primary gold & copper mineralization

Primary Focus 2:

Paddy’s Well Project

  • Large landholding (1,300km[2] ) in highly active REE & uranium exploration ‘hotspot’.

  • Both primary carbonatite and clay-hosted REE potential, with additional Lithium prospectivity.

  • VSR has identified widespread anomalous REEs from drilling (~80m intervals from surface). Metallurgical testing showing REEs are extractable via leaching

  • Historical uranium drilling by reputable explorers like Cameco identified calcrete-hosted mineralisation

Joint Venture with ASX:DLI: Ti Tree Lithium Project

Other assets (non-core): Kooline, Talga, Nevada (USA)

  • Paddy’s Flat, Bluebird, South Emu, Triton, Big Bell, and Comet mines have produced >270Koz Au per year.

  • Located in the prolific Gold & Critical Metals Murchison region in Western Australia.

  • Largely underexplored, despite its proximity to numerous historical and active open pits and underground mines, and prospective structures.

  • Strategic Geological Setting : Significant portion of the Burnakura Shear Zone ⇒

  • (BSZ) within project highly prospective for gold.

  • Proven Gold Potential : Adjacent to substantial gold resources totalling 0.5M oz, incl. remnant 381k oz at Federal City, Burnakura, and North of Alliance deposits.

  • High-Grade Mineralisation : Extensive untapped potential in interconnected structures within the BSZ.

  • Untapped Exploration Targets : 7 km segment of the BSZ within E51/1909 remains largely unexplored, highly prospective for gold mineralisation.

  • Initial Sampling Highlights : Preliminary sampling at 'Eldinero prospect' shows primary gold mineralization, with several rock chip samples returning >1.2 g/t Au.

  • Intrusion Related Gold (IRG) Model: Significant I-type magnetic ovoid formation identified, suggesting potential for an IRG system.

  • Untapped Potential: Large non-magnetic zones in the Norie Pluton indicate possible sites for hydrothermal alteration and gold mineralisation.

Promising reconnaissance rockchips
from Eldinero prospect

Reconnaissance field work at Eldinero has discovered
visually promising outcrops from a brecciated quartz-
sulphide vein system up to 10m wide and 200m strike.

The veins are prospective for copper, gold & silver BRK0006
(assays pending).
----- End of picture text -----

  • Several historic & active quartz-vein hosted shearrelated gold deposits along strike, including Westgold’s Paddy’s Flat & Great Fingal

  • BRK0004 & BRK0006 rock chip samples shown*

  • Mineralisation appears linked to Burnakura Shear Zone within a wide package of dolerites over 10 km of strike

  • Next steps: extend and delineate mineralisation via further surface geochemical surveys

Uranium identified by Cameco, VSR & others

  • Previous exploration undertaken by Cameco and others returned significant U3O8 mineralisation from drilling.

  • Primary uranium mineralisation was demonstrated to be geochemically analogous to Jabiluka.

REEs already identified by VSR

  • Both primary carbonatite and clay-hosted REE potential.

  • Widespread REEs within clay identified from maiden drilling at ‘Neo’ & testing proved REEs are extractable via leaching.

Untapped Lithium potential

  • Several newly identified granites and pegmatites

  • Proximal to historical Tantalum mine / process plant (Arthur River)

Paddy’s Well Project

Historical uranium drilling at the ‘Area 16’ prospect

  • Historical drilling at ‘Area 16’, and a recent campaign by VSR targeting shallow REE mineralisation at ‘Neo’ to the west, returned several mineralised uranium intercepts

  • Each occurrence associated with distinctive radiometric anomalies.

  • Several additional radiometric peaks are also apparent from this data and warrant follow-up.

Next Steps at Paddys Well:

  • Follow-up on-ground systematic reconnaissance at identified radiometric anomalies focusing both on REE and uranium.
