Investor Insights
The continued positive outlook for gold, copper is creating a strong macro economic environment for Tempest Minerals supported by its highly prolific assets with potential for world-class deposits.
Overview
Tempest Minerals (ASX:TEM) is an exploration and development company based in Australia, with a diversified portfolio of mineral assets prospective for iron, gold, copper/base metals, rare earths (REE), lithium. The company has five projects located in prolific territories in Western Australia: Yalgoo (gold, copper, zinc, silver, iron ore, tungsten, rare earths and more), Mt Magnet (gold, REE), Five Wheels (gold, base metals) and Elephant (gold). Its flagship Yalgoo property is a large land package comprising several targets, located in the prolific Yalgoo Region of Western Australia. Tempest has defined a number of exceptional exploration targets and is currently progressing the newly discovered Remorse magnetite iron ore deposit.
Tempest Minerals is headquartered in Perth, Australia.
Tempest Minerals is led by an experienced board and management team with a history of exploration, operational and corporate success – key to executing the company’s mission to maximise shareholder value through focused, data and technology-driven asset exploration and development.
Company Highlights
- Tempest Minerals’ exploration and development projects are primarily located in Western Australia and highlight a multi-commodity strategy in regions with a strong mining history.
- The company’s strategy is to progress a project pipeline of high-growth assets utilising data driven and hands-on exploration and modern development methods.
- In 2024 TEM completed a 5,000-metre drilling campaign focused on the Remorse target at the company’s Yalgoo project leading to a significant new high-grade magnetite deposit discovery and exploration target.
- Work in 2025 will focus on developing the new discovery while conducting further exploration portfolio-wide to define additional targets.
Key Projects
Yalgoo Property
Tempest’s largely unexplored and 100-percent-owned Yalgoo property covers more than 1,000 square kilometres and is highly prospective for gold, base metals and iron with world-class potential. It is located four hours from Perth, close to major infrastructure and adjacent to world-class mines, including Golden Grove, Deflector, Mt Gibson, Minjar, Rothsay and Mt Mulgine.
The Remorse Target is a 5 km long exploration target where TEM completed an initial 4,005 meters of drilling in 2024 and identified a significant magnetite iron-ore deposit. The target also remains highly prospective for base metals.
Tempest also has a number of compelling exploration targets across the 1,000 sq km project including the Sanity target which is highly prospective for gold, with rock chip samples returning 7 grams per ton (g/t) gold, 0.2 percent copper, and more than 60 percent iron.
Mt Magnet
The 100-percent owned Mt Magnet project spans more than 20 square kilometres located within a world-class mining district and is 5 kilometres from a processing facility. A prolific mining destination with at least 6 million ounces of gold produced to date, the project is surrounded by multiple large-scale gold mines currently in operations, including Ramelius’ (ASX:RMS) Mt Magnet operations and Spartan’s (ASX:SPR) Dalgaranga. The project contains multiple drill targets, of which Wrangler will be a key focus of near-term work.
Elephant
The Elephant project is a 194 square kilometre property in the prolific Fraser Range region with large geological structures and multi-million-ounce targets. The project area itself has strong magnetic anomalies and an 8-kilometre gold in soil geochemical anomaly which could represent a large subsurface gold system.
Five Wheels
The 100-percent owned, 266-square-kilometre Five Wheels project is geologically similar to Rumble Resources’ zinc-lead-copper discoveries and sits within the boundaries of the Earaheedy Basin in Western Australia, a mineralised sedimentary basin. A major geophysics program is planned for the project, co-funded by the government.

Talon Metals Reports Record Assays from Historic Tamarack Discovery Grading 57.76% Copper Equivalent or 28.88% Nickel Equivalent over 34.9 Combined Meters
Total reported intercept of 47.33 meters grading 42.79% Copper Equivalent or 21.40% Nickel Equivalent
Talon Metals Corp. (TSX: TLO) (OTC Pink: TLOFF) (together with its subsidiaries, "Talon" or the "Company"), the majority owner and operator of the Tamarack Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project ("Tamarack Nickel Copper Project") in central Minnesota, is pleased to announce assays from the previously announced historic massive sulphide ("MSU") intercepts in drill hole 25TK0563 (see the Company's press release dated May 12, 2025) measuring a combined 34.9 meters grading 28.88% NiEq and 57.76% CuEq at the Tamarack Nickel Copper Project.

See Table 3 for further technical information
Drill hole 25TK0563 intersected a combined length of 34.90 meters across two zones of MSU starting at 762.34 meters grading 14.86% Ni, 15.37% Cu, 0.11% Co, 9.18 g/t Au, 16.31 g/t Pt, 8.65 g/t Pd, and 42.92 g/t Ag.
Of the two zones of MSU that were intercepted, the upper MSU starts at 762.34 meters and graded 26.70% NiEq (53.40% CuEq) over the 20.39 meter interval. The lower MSU starts at 795.16 meters and graded 31.95% NiEq (63.90% CuEq) over 14.51 meters.
These assays represent a portion of the mineralization encountered in hole 25TK0563 and further details may be provided as the remainder of the drill hole is assayed.
The drill hole was targeting Borehole Electromagnetic ("BHEM") anomalies identified from previous drill holes 25TK0562 and 16TK0250.
Drill hole 25TK0563 represents an approximate 68-meter step-out to the east from the intercept in drill hole 16TK0250.
A BHEM campaign has been initiated using multiple loops to help evaluate this new zone from various orientations. The results of this program will guide the future drill program.
"Intercepts of this scale and grade are extremely rare, and they don't come without deep technical understanding. Our in-house geophysics team helped vector us into this target, and our in-house drill team executed it flawlessly. This result validates both the geology at Tamarack and the integrated approach we've taken to exploration. Tamarack continues to exceed expectations and has raised the bar as to what high-grade means," said Brian Goldner, Chief Exploration and Operations Officer.
"A 34.9-meter intercept grading 28.88% nickel equivalent is truly world-class. Even when you compare it to historical data from globally significant nickel deposits, intercepts like this are few and far between. From a geologic perspective, this is a bonanza result by any standard," added Dean Rossell, Chief Geologist of Talon and credited with the discovery of Tamarack, Eagle and Boulderdash.
"As the United States accelerates efforts to secure domestic critical mineral supply chains for energy security and national defense, Tamarack stands out as a rare and essential piece of the puzzle. These assay results not only underscore the global significance of our deposit, but also its strategic importance to America's energy future," said Henri van Rooyen, CEO of Talon.

QUALITY ASSURANCE, QUALITY CONTROL AND QUALIFIED PERSONS
Please see the technical report entitled "November 2022 National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report of the Tamarack North Project - Tamarack, Minnesota" with an effective date of November 2, 2022 ("November 2022 Technical Report") prepared by independent "Qualified Persons" (as that term is defined in National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101")) Brian Thomas (P. Geo), Roger Jackson (P. Geo), Oliver Peters (P. Eng) and Christine Pint (P.G) for information on the QA/QC, data verification, analytical and testing procedures at the Tamarack Nickel Copper Project. Copies are available on the Company's website (www.talonmetals.com) or on SEDAR+ at (www.sedarplus.ca). The laboratory used is ALS Minerals who is independent of the Company.
Lengths are drill intersections and not necessarily true widths. True widths cannot be consistently calculated for comparison purposes between holes because of the irregular shapes of the mineralized zones. Drill intersections have been independently selected by Talon. Drill composites have been independently calculated by Talon. The geological interpretations in this news release are solely those of the Company. The locations and distances highlighted on all maps in this news release are approximate.
Dr. Etienne Dinel, Vice President, Geology of Talon, is a Qualified Person within the meaning of NI 43-101. Dr. Dinel is satisfied that the analytical and testing procedures used are standard industry operating procedures and methodologies, and he has reviewed, approved and verified the technical information disclosed in this news release, including sampling, analytical and test data underlying the technical information.
Where used in this news release:
NiEq% = Ni% + Cu% x $4.00/$8.00 x Cu Recovery/Ni Recovery + Co% x $20.00/$8.00 x Co Recovery/Ni Recovery + Pt [g/t]/31.103 x $1,000/$8.00/22.04 x Pt Recovery/Ni Recovery + Pd [g/t]/31.103 x $1,000/$8.00/22.04 x Pd Recovery/Ni Recovery + Au [g/t]/31.103 x $2,000/$8.00/22.04 x Au Recovery/Ni Recovery + Ag [g/t]/31.103 x $20.00/$8.00/22.04 x Ag Recovery/Ni Recovery
CuEq% = Cu%+ Ni% x $8.00/$4.00 x Ni Recovery/Cu Recovery + Co% x $20.00/$4.00 x Co Recovery/Cu Recovery + Pt [g/t]/31.103 x $1,000/$4.00/22.04 x Pt Recovery/Cu Recovery + Pd [g/t]/31.103 x $1,000/$4.00/22.04 Pd Recovery/Cu Recovery + Au [g/t]/31.103 x $2,000/$4.00/22.04 Au Recovery/Cu Recovery + Ag [g/t]/31.103 x $20.00/$4.00/22.04 x Ag Recovery/Cu Recovery
For Ni and Cu recoveries, please refer to the formulae in the November 2022 Technical Report. Recovery of Ni to the Cu concentrate was excluded from the NiEq calculation. The following recoveries were used for the other metals: 64.1% for Co, 82.5% for Pt, 69.3% for Pd and 72.6% for Au and Ag.

All samples were analysed by ALS Minerals. Nickel, copper, and cobalt grades were first analysed by a 4-acid digestion and ICP AES (ME-MS61). Grades reporting greater than 0.25% Ni and/or 0.1% Cu, using ME-MS61, trigger a sodium peroxide fusion with ICP-AES finish (ICP81). Platinum, palladium, and gold are initially analyzed by a 30g fire assay with an ICP-MS finish (PGM-MS24). Any samples reporting >1g/t Pt or Pd trigger an over-limit analysis by ICP-AES finish (PGM-ICP27) and any samples reporting >1g/t Au trigger an over-limit analysis by AAS (Au-AA26). For Ag, ICP-AES through Aqua regia digestion (ME-ICP 41).
