-
Shallow samples from the oxidised (weathered) zone appear to be supergene enriched which opens up exploration potential for both shallow, high-grade supergene and deeper primary mineralisation
-
Samples from the top of all Luni holes LURC001 (0m to 121m), LURC002 (0m to 28m) and LUR003 (0m to 43m) have not yet been assayed
P1 Target
-
Three holes drilled at the P1 target intersected a major ironstone-magnetite rich unit with subtle anomalism
-
Further work is required to better understand the geophysical anomaly at P1 and its exploration potential
Upcoming Results and Activity
-
Composite assays for all seven drillholes have now been received
-
All single-metre splits from P2 and Luni have been submitted for analysis with assay results now expected during December
-
Assessment of results and planning for follow-up drill programs at these carbonatite discoveries is ongoing
WA1 Resources Ltd (ASX: WA1) ( WA1 or the Company ) is pleased to announce further composite assay results from its maiden West Arunta Project drilling program completed in August. This announcement follows on from the Company’s P2 Target discovery released to ASX on 26 October 2022.
WA1’s Managing Director, Paul Savich, commented:
“It’s an incredible outcome to have discovered two high-grade mineralised carbonatite systems with our first drill program in the West Arunta. The fact that we have encountered high-grade niobium and anomalous rare earths in all three holes at Luni which are drilled up to 1.3km apart bodes extremely well for the exploration potential of the ~3km long geophysical target.
“The confirmation of high niobium grades in the near-surface oxide material is also an exciting development as it opens up the potential for mineralisation to be present in both supergene and primary zones.
“Our conceptual targeting methodologies which identified the West Arunta as a prospective underexplored region have been validated, along with our capability to successfully execute our exploration plans.
All 1 metre splits, including those previously unassayed near top of holes at P2 and Luni, have now been submitted for analysis. We currently anticipate receiving the next round of results in December.
“We are now turning our thoughts to increasing our exploration efforts and maximising the potential of a new belt-scale critical minerals opportunity in Western Australia. In 2023

our objective will be to efficiently quantify the magnitude of these exciting initial discoveries and apply our knowledge to test other priority regional targets.”
Technical Discussion
WA1’s maiden drill program in the West Arunta comprised seven holes for a total of 1,745 metres. Drilling provided an initial test of two target zones at the Pachpadra Prospect (P1 and P2) and one target zone at the Sambhar Prospect (Luni).
The results provided in this announcement relate to three reverse circulation ( RC ) drill holes at the Luni target (LURC001, LURC002 and LURC003) and three RC holes drilled at the P1 target (PARC001, PARC002 and PARC004).

- Hole planned as vertical and deviated during drilling (see Figure 1)
Initial assay results for the one drill hole completed at the P2 target (PARC003) were released to the ASX on 26 October 2022.
Luni Target (Sambhar Prospect Area) Discussion
At the Luni target, a total of three RC holes were drilled for 803m, with all holes drilled to the maximum depth capacity of the rig. All holes were drilled vertically (with LURC001 deviating during drilling) to test the source of the east-west gravity anomaly which extends for approximately 3km long and 1km wide.
Assay results have confirmed that a mineralised carbonatite unit has been intersected at Luni, with highly elevated niobium, REE and phosphorus mineralisation encountered in all three drill holes. The downhole intersections confirm the intrusion over a lateral extent of at least 1.3km. For full details of key intersections refer to the highlights and Table 2.
Drillholes LURC001 and LURC002 targeted the peak of the interpreted gravity highs and a third hole, LURC003, was drilled 200m to the south of the eastern hole (LURC002) to test the gravity gradient interpreted in the residual modelling.
Orientation of the mineralisation (true and apparent width) is not able to be determined at this stage.

Figure 1: Plan View of Luni Drill Collar Locations Combined gravity (resUC200m, colour) and magnetic (residual contours) anomaly images
The Luni target is characterised by a discrete, high amplitude gravity anomaly with a limited but coincident magnetic response occurring adjacent to the eastern line and another between the west and east drill locations. Luni is located at the intersection of two key interpreted regional structural features. One of these structural features is orientated in a north-east trend (as is the case at the P2 target). This structure also intersects the Sambhar geophysical anomaly, a regionally significant anomaly located approximately 2km to the southeast of Luni which has not yet been drill tested.
Gravity surveying of Luni is currently limited to 400m x 400m stations, while the Luni target area is approximately 3km x 1km. An infill gravity survey, along with drilling and other geophysical surveys, will be incorporated into the exploration planning that is currently underway to follow-up these initial drilling results.
The significant gravity anomalies at Luni has been reinterpreted and modelled to potentially be a function of the denser carbonatite intrusion. No specific gravity data was able to be completed on the RC chip material to verify this hypothesis.

P1 Target (Pachpadra Prospect Area) Discussion
Three holes were drilled at the P1 target in a north-south oriented line. Holes were drilled at -60 degrees towards the south, considered to be the optimal drill orientation as determined via modelling of the geophysical datasets.
At this stage no structural or true thickness observations are able to be made from the RC chips.
The lithologies intersected at the P1 target have been identified as fundamentally different to the carbonatite intersected at the P2 target located 7km to the south-east.
Despite this, the P1 target area remains highly prospective with drilling conducted over 600m within a regionally significant complex magnetic anomaly that extends in strike for over 12km and within a folded sequence of metasediments containing multiple interpreted gravity anomalies, which remain to be drill tested and could be related to other carbonatite intrusions.
At P1 all holes intersected northern Aileron style stratigraphy, which included quartz rich metasediments of sandstone protolith, a high iron magnetite rich unit and a paragneiss unit consisting of quartz, garnet and sillimanite metamorphosed to amphibolite grade. Low level anomalism in TREO, Ni and Cu was encountered, refer to Table 2 for details.

While interpretation of data from drilling is ongoing, the Company does not currently intend to submit the remaining individual samples for each metre of the holes at P1 to the laboratory for assay.

West Arunta Project – Upcoming Results and Activity
Four metre composite assays for all seven drillholes completed in WA1’s maiden drill program in the West Arunta have now been received and reported.
All single-metre splits from P2 and Luni have been submitted for analysis with first assay results now expected during December. This includes results from the shallower weathered portions of the holes which have potential for supergene mineralisation and have not previously been assayed or reported.
Priority follow-up work includes geophysical surveys and an intensive review of the geochemical assay results. This work will ascertain the nature of the carbonatites intersected and determine if any spatial variation or zonation can be mapped.
Work will also commence on the design of the first drill program in 2023. This program will focus on determining the spatial and depth extent of the carbonatite intrusions intersected at Luni and P2.
Carbonatite Overview
Carbonatites are a type of igneous rock defined by their composition being rich in carbonate minerals, typically calcite or dolomite. They often occur as plugs within alkali intrusive complexes, or as dykes, sills, breccias or veins. They are generally associated with major crustal scale features in rift-related tectonic settings. Carbonatites may be mineralised with rare earth elements, niobium, phosphorus, tantalum, uranium, thorium, copper, iron, titanium, vanadium, barium, fluorine and zirconium.
The identification of mineralised carbonatite intrusions is a significant finding for the West Arunta region. The Company has multiple untested targets within the region and the potential for further discovery with future exploration efforts has been greatly enhanced by the results from Luni and P2.
Carbonatite deposits are an important source of REE and niobium production. This includes the world’s largest REE mine, Bayan Oho in Inner Mongolia, Lynas Rare Earths’ Mt Weld deposit and the world’s three major operating niobium mines.
Niobium Overview
Niobium (Nb) is a transitional metal used as a micro alloy with iron. Niobium is primarily used in the steel industry as the addition of small amounts of niobium (<1%) significantly increases the strength, decreases the weight, reduces corrosion and improves the heat resistance of steel products.
Niobium is a superconductor at very low temperatures, and as an alloy with titanium (NbTi) or tin (Nb3Sn) it produces superconducting magnets used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) equipment and particle accelerators such as the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Niobium is essential for advanced technology with additional uses in gas and wind turbines, space travel, and in the manufacture of rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles.

==> picture [206 x 75] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [596 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
The metal has been identified by the Australian Government and many other countries as a critical mineral, due to the concentration of supply from Brazil. There are currently three niobium producers globally: CBMM, Araxa, Brazil (66ktpa production[4] , +500Mt at 2.5% Nb2O5 resource, cost <$10/kg Nb)[3] , China Molybdenum Co., Catalao, Brazil (10ktpa production[4] , +50Mt at 1% Nb2O5 resource, cost <$10/kg Nb)[4] and Magris Resources Inc., Niobec, Canada (7ktpa production[4] , +75Mt at 0.56% Nb2O5 resource, cost <$19/kg Nb)[3] .
The main niobium product sold is in the form of ferroniobium (~65% Nb) which makes up approximately 90% of the market. Niobium prices range from US$45,000/t[3] per tonne for standard ferroniobium metal and over US$50,000/t[3] per tonne for niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5).

JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1
Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
| Criteria | Commentary |
|---|---|
| Sampling techniques | • All geological information referred to in this ASX Announcement was derived from a reverse circulation drill program. • From every metre drilled a 2-3kg sample (split) was sampled into a calico bag via the rig mounted cone splitter. • A 4m composite sample was collected using an aluminium scoop to sub sample each spoil pile located on the ground adjacent to the rig. Average sample weights are about 2-2.5kg. • Single metre samples were also collected and assayed as determined by the site geologist. • Comments on the mineralisation are observations of the major mineral(s) apparent in the RC chips. • The cover sequence was not composite sampled. The original metre splits have now been submitted to ALS Laboratories for analysis. • Samples have been sent to the laboratory for assay and will further inform geological understanding and interpretation. • Laboratory Analysis - Samples were initially submitted for 4 acid digest 61 element suite with REE’s - ALS method - ME-MS61r. Samples that triggered the upper detection limit for Ce (>500ppm) and Nb (>500ppm) underwent overlimit analysis via lithium borate fusion (ME-MS85), where Nb triggered the upper detection limit (>5000ppm) XRF was used for the final determination via ALS method ME-XRF30. The phosphorus overlimit method used was P-OG62. • All 1 metre samples from surface to EOH have been submitted to ALS Laboratories in Perth for analysis by lithium borate fusion (ME- MS81) with over limits determined by XRF (ALS Method ME-MS85). • All samples were initially analysed via ME-MS61r, however, upon internal review ALS advised that Nb values were under reported due to the partial 4-acid digest. |
| Drilling techniques | • Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling was completed at all holes to a diameter of 114mm. |
| Drill sample recovery | • Sample recoveries are visually estimated for each metre with poor or wet samples recorded in sample log sheets. • The sample cyclone was routinely cleaned at the end of each 6m rod and when deemed necessary. • No relationship has been determined between sample recovery and the mineralisation returned. • At Luni sample recovery was poor in the cover sequence where water was abundant. This was recorded on the sample sheet. • LURC002 – wet sample 48-53m, damp sample 53-70m, wet and poor sample recovery 148-184m, damp sample – 184–299m. |
| Logging | • Geological logging of drill holes was done on a visual basis with logging including lithology, mineralogy, texture, deformation, alteration, mineralisation, veining, colour and weathering. • Logging of drill chips is qualitative and based on the presentation of representative chips retained for all 1m sample intervals in the chip trays. • All drill holes were logged in their entirety. |

|---|---|
| Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation |
RC Drilling • From every metre drilled, a 2-3kg sample was sub-sampled into a calico bag via the drill rig cyclone splitter. • QAQC in the form of CRMs (OREAS Standards) were inserted at a rate of 1:50 samples. • 4m composite sampling was completed from spoil piles with samples submitted to the laboratory determined by the site geologist. Single metre samples were also collected and assayed as determined by the site geologist. |
| Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
• All samples were initially analysed via ME-MS61r, however, the partial digest failed to liberate all contained Nb. Where the upper detection limit for Nb was triggered, samples underwent lithium borate fusion a total digest which highlighted discrepancies between the results of the partial and total digestion methods. This resulted in initial under-reporting, select samples have since been analysed via lithium borate fusion. • All 1m splits will be analysed via lithium borate fusion with XRF determination where required, both are methods suitable for Niobium and REE analysis. Nb assays >500ppm underwent lithium borate fusion analysis and samples >5000ppm had XRF determinations via ME-XRF30 The phosphorus overlimit used was P-OG62. • The element promethium (Pm) is not included in the assays or TREO calculations. • Standard laboratory QAQC was undertaken and monitored by the laboratory and then by WA1 upon receipt of assay results. • Company standards were inserted and analysed as part of the ME- MS61r suite. No standards were inserted into the ME-MS85 and ME-XRF30 sequences as samples were not analysed via these methods en masse. Instead, for the lithium borate fusion and the ME-XRF methods, the laboratory standards have been reviewed by the company and have passed internal ALS QAQC checks. • Lab QAQC protocol for XRF analysis includes a quartz blank at the beginning of every run, whilst the XRF is calibrated using internal lab standards. • It is suspected samples that underwent ME-MS61r are significantly underreporting for Nb, therefore failing to trigger overlimit analyses. All 1m split samples will be analysed via lithium borate fusion with ICP or XRF determination where appropriate. • Over-limit assays were completed via Lithium Borate Fusion ALS Method ME-MS85), where the upper detection limit was exceeded XRF determinations were completed via ALS Method ME-XRF30 • Table 2 notes where method ME-XRF30 was used and reported. |
| Verification of sampling and assaying |
• Drill chips have been viewed and assessed by WA1’s Exploration Manager for mineralogy and alteration. • Mineralised intersections have been verified against the downhole geology. • Independent petrographic analysis of selected drill chips is being undertaken by A&A Crawford Geological Research Consultants Pty Ltd. • Portable XRF readings were taken in the field to aid interpretation. • Logging and sampling was completed manually in the field and then recorded directly into a digital logging system. • No twinned holes have been drilled at this time. • No sample bias is known at this time. |

| Criteria | Commentary |
|---|---|
| Location of data points | • Drill hole collars were surveyed and recorded using a DGPS. • All co-ordinates are provided in the MGA94 UTM Zone 52 co- ordinate system with an estimated accuracy of +/-5m. • Azimuth and dip of the drill hole was recorded after completion of the hole using a gyro. A reading was taken every 50m with an accuracy of +/-1 degree azimuth and +/-0.3 degree dip. |
| Data spacing and distribution |
• See drill hole table for hole position and details. • Data spacing at this stage is not suitable for Mineral Resource Estimation. |
| Orientation of data in relation to geological structure |
• The orientation of mineralisation is poorly constrained with only three RC holes having been drilled at the Luni and P1 targets, respectively. • See drill hole table for hole details and the text of this announcement for discussion regarding the orientation of holes. • Drill holes were designed based on observations from modelled geophysical data. • True and apparent widths have not been interpreted from the available data. |
| Sample security | • Sample security is not considered a significant risk with WA1 staff present during collection. • All geochemical samples were collected, bagged and sealed by WA1 staff, and delivered to Port Hedland for haulage directly to ALS Laboratories in Perth. • 1m splits were stored in a secure location. |
| Audits or reviews | • The program is reviewed on an ongoing basis by senior WA1 staff. |
Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results
(Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)
| Criteria | Commentary |
|---|---|
| Mineral tenement and land tenure status |
• All work completed and reported in this ASX Announcement was completed on E80/5173 which is 100% owned by WA1 Resources Ltd. • The Company also currently holds two further granted Exploration Licences and eight Exploration Licence Applications within the area of the West Arunta Project. |
| Exploration done by other parties |
• The West Arunta Project has had limited historic work completed within the Project area with the broader area having exploration focused on gold, base metals, diamonds and potash. • Significant previous explorers of the Project area include Beadell Resources and Meteoric Resources. Only one drill hole (RDD01) has been completed within the tenement area by Meteoric in 2009, and more recently a second hole proximate to the Project by Encounter Resources Ltd in 2020. • Most of the historic work was focused on the Urmia and Sambhar Prospects with historic exploration (other than RDD01) being limited to geophysical surveys and surface sampling. • Historical exploration reports are referenced within the WA1 Resources Ltd Prospectus dated 29 November 2021 which was released by ASX on 4 February 2022. |
| Geology | • The West Arunta Project is located within the West Arunta Orogen, representing the western-most part of the Arunta Orogen which straddles the Western Australia-Northern Territoryborder. |

| Criteria | Commentary |
|---|---|
| • Outcrop in the area is generally poor, with bedrock largely covered by Tertiary sand dunes and spinifex country of the Gibson Desert. As a result, geological studies in the area have been limited, and a broader understanding of the geological setting is interpreted from early mapping as presented on the MacDonald (Wells, 1968) and Webb (Blake, 1977 (First Edition) and Spaggiari et al., 2016 (Second Edition)) 1:250k scale geological map sheets. • The West Arunta Orogen is considered to be the portion of the Arunta Orogen commencing at, and west of, the Western Australia-Northern Territory border. It is characterised by the dominant west-north-west trending Central Australian Suture, which defines the boundary between the Aileron Province to the north and the Warumpi Province to the south. • The broader Arunta Orogen itself includes both basement and overlying basin sequences, with a complex stratigraphic, structural and metamorphic history extending from the Paleoproterozoic to the Paleozoic (Joly et al., 2013). |
