“We are excited to present these initial positive results firom our soil orientation survey completed in December 2024. The purpose ofi the orientation survey was to verifiy the historic base metal anomalies defiined by previous explorers across the Company's tenements.

“Our results confiirm elevated lead up to 709 ppm, copper to 680 ppm, silver to 250 ppb with anomalous gold and zinc. These fiindings also confiirm that mineralised corridors extend approximately 200m (north- south) at Mount Hope East and 400m (north-south) at Black Hill, both ofi which remain open in all directions. These results are consistent with the historical data, reinfiorcing the high prospectivity ofi our project and providing confiidence to advance the Stage 2 soil program.

“We have also successfiully demonstrated the efifiectiveness ofi the Ultrafiine+™ (UFF) analysis, which has never been trialled in our region. This ground-breaking assay technique, pioneered by LabWest h CSIRO, provides the Company with a fiast and cost-efifiective technique to cover large areas ofi concealed geology without drilling. This will ultimately have a positive efifiect on our expenditure moving fiorward, allowing us to conduct high-quality exploration work with reduced overhead.

“I look fiorward to providing fiurther updates as we progress our second stage ofi exploration at what is fiast becoming a prominent project in the prolifiic Cobar mining region.”
