Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

Glossary of Terms

Term	Definition
Co-kriging	A method that is used to predict the value of the point at unobserved locations by sample points that are known to be spatially interconnected by adding other variables that have a correlation with the main variable or can also be used to predict 2 or more variables simultaneously.
Cut-off grade	Cut-off grade is the grade (i.e. the concentration of metal or mineral in rock) that determines the destination of the material during mining. For purposes of establishing “prospects of economic extraction,” the cut-off grade is the grade that distinguishes material deemed to have no economic value (it will not be mined in underground mining or if mined in surface mining, its destination will be the waste dump) from material deemed to have economic value (its ultimate destination during mining will be a processing facility). Other terms used in similar fashion as cut-off grade include net smelter return, pay limit, and break-even stripping ratio.
Dilution	Unmineralized rock that is by necessity, removed along with ore during the mining process that effectively lowers the overall grade of the ore.
Head grade	The average grade of ore fed into the mill.
Economically viable	Economically viable, when used in the context of Mineral Reserve determination, means that the qualified person has determined, using a discounted cash flow analysis, or has otherwise analytically determined, that extraction of the Mineral Reserve is economically viable under reasonable investment and market assumptions.
Indicated Mineral Resource	Indicated Mineral Resource is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of adequate geological evidence and sampling. The level of geological certainty associated with an Indicated Mineral Resource is sufficient to allow a qualified person to apply modifying factors in sufficient detail to support mine planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. Because an Indicated Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than the level of confidence of a Measured Mineral Resource, an Indicated Mineral Resource may only be converted to a probable Mineral Reserve.
Inferred Mineral Resource	Inferred Mineral Resource is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence and sampling. The level of geological uncertainty associated with an Inferred Mineral Resource is too high to apply relevant technical and economic factors likely to influence the prospects of economic extraction in a manner useful for evaluation of economic viability. Because an Inferred Mineral Resource has the lowest level of geological confidence of all Mineral Resources, which prevents the application of the modifying factors in a manner useful for evaluation of economic viability, an Inferred Mineral Resource may not be considered when assessing the economic viability of a mining project, and may not be converted to a Mineral Reserve.
Kriging	A method of interpolation based on Gaussian process governed by prior covariances. It uses a limited set of sampled data points to estimate the value of a variable over a continuous spatial field
Mine Call Factor	The ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the total quantity of recovered and unrecovered mineral product after processing with the amount estimated in the ore based on sampling.
Measured Mineral Resource	Measured Mineral Resource is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of conclusive geological evidence and sampling. The level of geological certainty associated with a Measured Mineral Resource is sufficient to allow a qualified person to apply modifying factors, as defined in this section, in sufficient detail to support detailed mine planning and final evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. Because a Measured Mineral Resource has a higher level of confidence than the level of confidence of either an Indicated Mineral Resource or an Inferred Mineral Resource, a Measured Mineral Resource may be converted to a Proven Mineral Reserve or to a Probable Mineral Reserve.
Mineral Reserve	Mineral Reserve is an estimate of tonnage and grade or quality of Indicated and Measured Mineral Resources that, in the opinion of the qualified person, can be the basis of an economically viable project. More specifically, it is the economically mineable part of a Measured or Indicated Mineral Resource, which includes diluting materials and allowances for losses that may occur when the material is mined or extracted.
Mineral Resource	Mineral Resource is a concentration or occurrence of material of economic interest in or on the Earth’s crust in such form, grade or quality, and quantity that there are reasonable prospects for economic extraction. A Mineral Resource is a reasonable estimate of mineralization, taking into account relevant factors such as cut-off grade, likely mining dimensions, location or continuity, that, with the assumed and justifiable technical and economic conditions, is likely to, in whole or in part, become economically extractable. It is not merely an inventory of all mineralization drilled or sampled.

Term	Definition
Modifying Factors	Modifying factors are the factors that a qualified person must apply to Indicated and Measured Mineral Resources and then evaluate in order to establish the economic viability of Mineral Reserves. A qualified person must apply and evaluate modifying factors to convert Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources to Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves. These factors include but are not restricted to; mining; processing; metallurgical; infrastructure; economic; marketing; legal; environmental compliance; plans, negotiations, or agreements with local individuals or groups; and governmental factors. The number, type and specific characteristics of the modifying factors applied will necessarily be a function of and depend upon the mineral, mine, property, or project.
Pre-Feasibility Study	A pre-feasibility study (or preliminary feasibility study) is a comprehensive study of a range of options for the technical and economic viability of a mineral project that has advanced to a stage where a qualified person has determined (in the case of underground mining) a preferred mining method, or (in the case of surface mining) a pit configuration, and in all cases has determined an effective method of mineral processing and an effective plan to sell the product. (1) A pre-feasibility study includes a financial analysis based on reasonable assumptions, based on appropriate testing, about the modifying factors and the evaluation of any other relevant factors that are sufficient for a qualified person to determine if all or part of the Indicated and Measured Mineral Resources may be converted to Mineral Reserves at the time of reporting. The financial analysis must have the level of detail necessary to demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that extraction is economically viable. (2) A pre-feasibility study is less comprehensive and results in a lower confidence level than a feasibility study. A pre-feasibility study is more comprehensive and results in a higher confidence level than an initial assessment.
Probable Mineral Reserve	Probable Mineral Reserve is the economically mineable part of an Indicated and, in some cases, a Measured Mineral Resource.
Proven Mineral Reserve	Proven Mineral Reserve is the economically mineable part of a Measured Mineral Resource and can only result from conversion of a Measured Mineral Resource.
Qualified Person	A qualified person is: (1) A mineral industry professional with at least five years of relevant experience in the type of mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and in the specific type of activity that person is undertaking on behalf of the registrant; and (2) An eligible member or licensee in good standing of a recognized professional organization at the time the technical report is prepared. For an organization to be a recognized professional organization, it must: (i) Be either: (A) An organization recognized within the mining industry as a reputable professional association; or (B) A board authorized by U.S. federal, state or foreign statute to regulate professionals in the mining, geoscience or related field; (ii) Admit eligible members primarily on the basis of their academic qualifications and experience; (iii) Establish and require compliance with professional standards of competence and ethics; (iv) Require or encourage continuing professional development; (v) Have and apply disciplinary powers, including the power to suspend or expel a member regardless of where the member practices or resides; and (vi) Provide a public list of members in good standing.
Tailings	Finely ground rock of low residual value from which valuable minerals have been extracted is discarded and stored in a designed dam facility.
Tailings Freeboard	The vertical height between the beached tailings against the embankment crest and the crest itself.

1Executive Summary

Section 229.601(b)(iii){B}(96)(1)

The Qualified Person (“QP”) of Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (“Harmony” or the “Company”) has

prepared this TRS to disclose the Mineral Resource estimates for the Company’s Eva Copper Project (the

'Project" or the "Eva Copper Project"). The TRS has been prepared in accordance with the U.S. Securities and

Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation, S-K 1300, with an effective date as at 30 June 2025. This TRS is a

2025 update to the previously filed 2024 TRS. This TRS updates the Technical Report Summary filed by

Harmony on the Eva Copper Project on 31 October 2023, named Exhibit 96.14 Technical Report Summary of

the Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves for the Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia,

which was effective on 30 June 2023.  This TRS is prepared to satisfy the requirement of Item 1302(e)(6) of

Regulation S-K. No material changes have occurred between the effective date and the date of signature of

this TRS.

The Project is 100% owned by Harmony Eva Copper Limited, a subsidiary of Harmony Gold Mining Company

Ltd. The Project is in North West Queensland, approximately 76 kilometres (km) northwest of Cloncurry, and

194 km northeast of Mount Isa.

The Project is in the Feasibility Study stage that is testing a multiple open pit operation feeding a copper

concentrator to produce copper concentrate for sale. There are seven deposits informing the Resource and

in  order of size are Little Eva, Blackard, Scanlan, Turkey Creek, Lady Clayre, Bedford, and Ivy Ann.

Existing major infrastructure closely surrounding the Project site includes the Burke Developmental Road,

located 8.5 km to the east of the Project, which connects Cloncurry with Normanton. A power transmission

line installed by MMG Limited for their Dugald River mine, located 11 km south of the Project. A water

pipeline that runs from Lake Julius to the Ernest Henry Mine traverses the southern portion of the Project

site. A residential area, known as the Mount Roseby Homestead, is located approximately 17.5 km to the

south of the Project plant site. Current infrastructure located on the Project site itself is minor, and includes

dirt tracks for exploration, water points, and fences.

Key Facts

Units of measurement used in this TRS conform to the metric system. All currency is United States dollars

Notes

1. Mineral Resources are reported in accordance with the SAMREC Code, 2016 and have an effective date of 30 June 2025.  For the

purposes of this TRS, the Mineral Resources have been classified in accordance with § 229.1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) (Item 1302(d)(1)(iii)(A) of

Regulation S-K). The Qualified Person is responsible for the estimate and has relied on data provided by Mr R Reid, Group Resource

Geologist, and employee of Harmony Australasia Services Pty Ltd.

2. Mineral Resources are reported on a 100% basis. Harmony holds a 100% interest.

5. Mineral Resources are reported exclusive of Mineral Reserves. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have

demonstrated economic viability.

6. Mineral Resources at the Project are reported assuming bulk open pit mining with metallurgical recovery for copper and gold by

sulphide flotation. Mineral Resources are reported above a variable copper grade cut-off based on the results of a profit algorithm NSR

calculation that equates to a marginal ore cut-off grade. The profit algorithm takes account of metal price, grade, ore processing route,

recoveries of 95% (Cu Sulphide), 56% (Cu Native Copper) and 78% (Au) and costs.  Metal price assumptions are USD1,941/oz gold,

USD5.10/Lb copper and a 0.68 USD/AusD exchange rate. Adjustments to these figures will potentially impact upon the economic cut-

off grade.

7. Tonnages are metric tonnes. Copper pounds, and Gold and silver ounces are estimates of metal contained in tonnages and do not

include allowances for processing losses.

8. Rounding as required by reporting guidelines may result in apparent differences between tonnes, grade and contained metal content.

Rounding is to three significant figures.

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

Project Overview

Eva Copper Mine Pty Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of Harmony Gold Company Mining Limited which owns

100% of the Project. Harmony acquired the Project from Copper Mountain Mining Pty. Ltd. ("CMMC") in

December 2022.

Eva Copper is located approximately 76 km northwest of Cloncurry in North West Queensland, Australia, and

has extensive exploration potential in the approximately 4,000 km2 (379,000 hectare [ha]) mineralised land

package (Figure 1-1).

CMMC reported a technically and financially viable operation through its 2020 Feasibility Study Update in

which it declared Reserves. This operation consisted of seven (7) deposits with ore processed through a

copper concentrator to produce a copper concentrate for sale. During its due diligence phase, Harmony

identified a number of risks and opportunities it wished to test in an update of the study. These studies are

ongoing and not yet complete. Harmony is not in position to declare Reserves at this point in time.

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

Property Description and Location

The Eva Copper Project is located 76 km northwest by road from Cloncurry, and 194 km northeast by road

from Mount Isa, a regional mining centre (Figure 1-1). Access to the Project is via the sealed Burke

Developmental Road from Cloncurry. This road passes 8.5 km to the east of the proposed processing plant

site and the Little Eva and Turkey Creek pits. The site is also 11 km north of the major operating Dugald River

zinc mine.

The Mineral Resources are within five granted Mining Leases ("ML"), except for the Ivy Ann pit, which is

within the Exploration Permit for Minerals ("EPM") 25760 (King). The MLs total an area of 143 km2 and are

situated across from two pastoral lease holdings and within one Native Title grant. There are two freehold

lots granted in the late 1800s, and 100% owned by the Company, that lie within the MLs; the first sits over

part of the Little Eva deposit, the second over part of the Longamundi deposit.

Necessary agreements are secured with the pastoral leaseholders and Native Title party (Kalkadoon People)

that set out conduct and compensation terms for the future mining activities to proceed.

Numerous royalties apply to the Project. Royalties on minerals are payable annually to the Queensland State

Government on an ad valorem basis, with various costs being permitted as a deduction from sales revenue.

Copper and gold royalty rates vary between 2.5% and 5.0% of value, depending on average metal prices, as

per Schedule 3 of the Mineral Resources Regulation of 2003. No state royalty on copper is applicable to the

two freehold lots owned by the Company. Several royalties also apply to the Project from purchase

agreements and are payable to several parties variably across portions of the Project area. These apply to all

of the deposits in the Project mine plan: a total 1.5% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty is applicable to the

Little Eva, Blackard, Scanlan, Turkey Creek, Bedford, and Lady Clayre deposits, and a 2% NSR royalty is

applicable to the Ivy Ann deposit. Compensation for the effects of mining activities on the Native Title of the

Kalkadoon People has been agreed upon.

Accessibility, Climate, Local Resources, Infrastructure, and Physiography

Current site access is by way of a new access road from a sealed road that passes 8.5 km to the east of the

proposed plant site. The site is also 11 km north of the major operating Dugald River zinc mine, owned by

MMG.

The town of Cloncurry is located on the railway line from Townsville to Mount Isa, and has container handling

facilities, an airport that hosts both commercial and fly-in/fly-out ("FIFO") jet aircraft services, and a regional

fuel depot. It also has schools, hospitals, and other services. The Project lies within the Shire of Cloncurry,

which is the local government administrative area. The Shire offices are also based in Cloncurry.

Grid power is generated in Mount Isa at two gas-fired power stations and is transmitted from Mount Isa to

Cloncurry. A 220 kV power line has been constructed from the Chumvale substation near Cloncurry to the

Dugald River mine.

The Cloncurry region is semi-arid, with a distinct hot, wet season from November to March, which is typical

of inland northern Australia. Average monthly temperatures range from 10.6°C to 38.5°C, with extremes

recorded from 1.8°C to 46.9°C. Rainfall in the wet season largely occurs as storms. Rainfall is highly variable

from year to year, with the region often experiencing both multi-year droughts and large-scale flooding from

major rainfall events.

The Project site is serviced by a complex system of surface drainages that flow generally northward. On the

western side of the processing plant and Little Eva pit is Cabbage Tree Creek, which is joined by other creeks

flowing northward to become a tributary of the Leichhardt River. Creeks and rivers flow only during, and for a

brief period following, the wet season.

The Project has groundwater sources from both hard rock fracture zone systems and from a graben-like

structure infilled with Phanerozoic sediments and alluvial deposits within a paleodrainage adjacent to the

current course of Cabbage Tree Creek.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

The mine site and broader operation area is gently undulating flat topography, with the predominant land

use being low-intensity cattle grazing, although exploration and mining activities have been conducted over

the area since the late 1800s. The site is currently crossed by several gravel roads from pastoral and

exploration activities. Additionally, SunWater Limited’s water pipeline from Lake Julius to the Ernest Henry

mine crosses the lease area from west to east.

History

The Project has a long history, and has been held under various tenures by a variety of exploration and

mining companies. Small-scale mining dating back to the early 1900s has occurred at deposits such as Little

Eva, Bedford, and Lady Clayre. Early explorers that contributed significantly to the Project with the discovery

of the copper-only or native copper deposits are Ausminda Pty. Ltd., and then CRA Exploration ("CRAE"), who

completed the first substantive work between 1990 and 1996, also defining a small resource at Little Eva.

CRAE sold its interest in the Project to Pasminco Limited ("Pasminco") in 1998. Universal Resources Limited

("URL") acquired the Project in 2001. URL also purchased the tenement hosting the Ivy Ann deposit from

Dominion Metals Pty. Ltd. ("Dominion") and Pan Australian Resources NL ("PanAust").

The remaining property was acquired by purchasing tenure from both Pasminco and Lake Gold Pty. Ltd. in a

50:50 ownership split between URL and Roseby Copper Pty. Ltd. ("RCPL"). In 2004, URL purchased RCPL, and

thus URL held 100% of the Eva Copper Project resources. Until 2009, work focused extensively on the copper-

only resources, with completion of two feasibility studies based on blends of sulphide ore and copper-only

ore. In 2010 URL merged with Vulcan Resources to become Altona Mining Limited ("Altona"), Altona took

over ownership of the Eva Copper Project. From 2010 to 2012, Altona carried out additional drilling, resulting

in Mineral Resource upgrades at the Little Eva, Bedford, Lady Clayre, Ivy Ann, Blackard, Legend, and Scanlan

deposits. Little Eva’s resource estimate was doubled based on the additional drilling.

In 2012, Altona completed a Feasibility Study based on the increased resources at the copper-gold sulphide

deposits, and excluding the Blackard and Scanlan deposits. Altona published Mineral Reserves for the Little

Eva, Bedford, Lady Clayre, and Ivy Ann deposits as part of the 2012 Feasibility Study. Altona published

updates to the Feasibility Study in 2014 and 2017. The 2017 update incorporated the subsequently

delineated significant Mineral Resource at Turkey Creek.

MLs and an EA were granted in 2012 based on the 2009 Feasibility Study mine plan. Following EA

amendments, the Project is currently authorised by EA EMPL00899613, granted 23 October 2024.

Altona completed a DFS update in 2017, incorporating the Turkey Creek deposit in the mine plan and

significant layout changes that included changes to the size and location of the TSF and a Cabbage Tree Creek

diversion channel at Little Eva pit. To support the previous studies, the Little Eva, Bedford, Lady Clayre, and

Ivy Ann deposits have had a number of formal Mineral Resource estimates that reflect stages of resource

definition dating from 2006 to 2017. The Mineral Resource estimate for Turkey Creek was completed in 2015.

Estimates were largely undertaken by external independent experts, initially by McDonald Speijers, and most

recently Optiro, based on data and geological models provided by the CMMC.

In December 2022 Harmony purchased the project from CMMC. In February 2023 Harmony commenced a

confirmatory and expansion drilling programme and other studies designed to progress the project to a

decision to mine.

Geological Setting and Mineralisation

The Project area is situated within the Mount Isa and North West Region of Queensland, Australia, an area

that is one of the premier base metal-bearing areas of Australia, with mining activities having taken place

since the discovery of copper and gold near Cloncurry in the 1860s. The Mount Isa area hosts numerous base

metal copper, zinc, and lead deposits of global significance, including the Mount Isa, Ernest Henry, Century,

Dugald River, Cannington, and Selwyn deposits. The Eva Copper Project is hosted by Proterozoic-aged,

metamorphosed and poly-deformed marine sedimentary and volcanic rocks of the Mary Kathleen domain of

the Eastern Fold Belt Inlier. Deformation, metamorphism, and plutonic activity took place during the Isan

Orogeny, approximately 1,600 to 1,500 million years (Ma) ago.

There are twelve known mineral deposits in the Project area, of which six have been included in the current

mine plan. Mineral deposits are grouped into two types: copper-gold, and copper only. There are five of the

copper-gold deposits, four of which are in the mine plan. These deposits are classified as iron oxide copper-

gold ("IOCG") deposits, where mineralisation is associated with regional-scale hematite and albite alteration

Effective date: 30 June 2025

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

(red-rock alteration), and localised magnetite alteration. Copper sulphide mineralisation, primarily

chalcopyrite with lesser bornite, occurs as veins, breccias, fracture fill, and disseminations in mafic to

intermediate volcanic or intrusive rocks. Gold is generally correlated with copper and is recovered in the

copper concentrate. Mineralisation appears to be localised and/or bounded by faults and other deformation-

related structures. The copper-only deposits are stratabound, locally stratiform, and most occur within

metamorphosed calcareous metasedimentary rocks, forming an approximately linear trend stretching over 7

km. The origin of these deposits is uncertain; they may be deformed and metamorphosed versions of

sedimentary or red-bed type copper deposits, or they could be more closely related to the IOCG deposits, but

with enhanced stratigraphic controls related to the calcareous beds being particularly reactive with

hydrothermal fluids.

All of the deposits have a 10 m to 25 m thick overlying zone of oxidation, where the rock is extensively

weathered, and copper sulphide minerals have been leached or converted to various oxide minerals that

cannot be recovered by flotation. The oxide zones are treated as waste, but tonnages and copper grades

have been estimated and the oxide mineralisation will be stockpiled separately. With the exception of the

Turkey Creek deposit, the copper-only deposits commonly have a significant thickness of supergene material,

where carbonate has been leached from the rock, reducing hardness and density, and the copper occurs as

native-copper, chalcocite, and other low-sulphur copper species. The carbonate-leached zone is separated

from the underlying sulphide zone by a thin transition zone. Each of these mineralogical zones has been

modelled so that resources can be estimated for each and the appropriate metallurgical recoveries can be

applied for reserve estimation.

Drilling

Although exploration work has been recorded within the Eva Copper Project area since 1963, usable drill

data dates back to 1988. Total drilling in the seven deposits with planned production includes 1,470 drill

holes for 208,637 m. All the drill holes used for Mineral Resource estimation have accurate collar and

downhole surveys, including the older holes, which were subsequently resurveyed by later exploration

companies (URL, or more recently, Altona). Most of the drilling was done by reverse circulation ("RC")

methods, with a small percentage being diamond drill holes ("DD").

Statistical analysis of the type of drilling, age, and operating company does not indicate any bias to the drill

hole assay data. Assay data from two DDs completed by Sichuan Railway Investment Group (SRIG) in 2017,

and two DD completed in 2018 by CMMC within the Little Eva deposit, provided material for metallurgical

testing and were used to verify the resource block model. Two holes were drilled in the Turkey Creek deposit

in 2018 and 2019 for grade verification and metallurgical material. Eighteen RC holes were drilled in the

Blackard deposit in 2019 by CMMC to upgrade resource classification. Assay data from the 2019 RC drilling

within the Blackard deposit is statistically indistinguishable from historical drilling. Since obtaining the

Project, Harmony has commenced an extensive infill drilling campaign designed to confirm, and extend

confidence in, the Resource and geological models. To date Harmony has drilled 724 drill holes across the

project for a total of 155,914m. These holes have informed the ongoing feasibility study (metallurgical and

geotechnical holes) and recent Resource model updates to grade estimates and classification.

Exploration

Mineral exploration on lands of the Eva Copper Project dates back more than 40 years. The exploration

database for the area contains information from numerous geological, geophysical, and geochemical surveys

carried out by the current and previous operators, in addition to regional government data on geology and

geophysics. Almost all data from historical geophysical and geochemical work is compiled in the Company

database and has been used in the design and guidance of current exploration work.

The most useful historical geophysical work includes ground and airborne magnetics and gravity surveys

which, when combined with soil geochemistry, provide good drill targeting tools. Induced polarization ("IP")

and electromagnetic ("EM") geophysical surveys have also proven to be useful or have some benefit in the

right circumstances. Continuous improvements in electronic instrumentation, computer data processing,

inversion technology for geophysics, and multi-element analysis (particularly in handheld, portable X-ray

fluorescence (XRF) units), provide significant rationale to continue geophysical and geochemical surveying on

the property.

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

Deposit Types

Copper deposits of the Eva Copper Project are of two types. The most significant are those of the IOCG type,

which are hydrothermal copper-gold deposits associated with relatively high contents of iron oxide minerals

(magnetite or hematite), a general lack of quartz, and extensive sodic alteration. The hydrothermal fluids are

believed to be sourced from, and/or driven by, magmatic systems with possible addition of basin brines;

however, mineralisation is commonly distal (or spatially distinct) from the causative plutonic rocks.

Mineralisation can take many forms, but the dominant ones are vein networks, breccias, dissemination, and

replacement. Both structure (fault or fracture systems) and lithology (chemistry and rheology) are key

features in localization of mineralisation. The second type of copper deposit is termed copper-only; these

deposits do not contain significant gold and are typically hosted within deformed and metamorphosed

calcareous sedimentary rocks as stratabound mineralisation. One deposit, Turkey Creek, is a strataform

copper-only deposit within calc-silicate and schistose rocks but has processing characteristics similar to those

for the copper-gold deposits.

There are 12 defined deposits within the Eva Copper Project, ranging in size from 0.7 Mt to over 100 Mt, six

of which are included within the current mine plan. Three are copper-gold deposits, and three are copper-

only deposits. Metallurgical recoveries for the copper-gold deposits are favourable, due to relatively coarse-

grained chalcopyrite and lesser bornite. All of the deposits have a thin, 10 m to 40 m weathered or oxide

zone at surface, for which tonnage and grades have been estimated, but which have been treated as waste

within the mine plan. The copper-only deposits hosted within calcareous metasedimentary rocks have

additional zones of weathering and/or acid leaching, which has removed carbonate, reducing rock strength

and density in addition to changing sulphide mineralogy. In the two such deposits, Blackard and Scanlan, a

supergene zone termed native copper occurs below the oxide zone, and contains abundant native copper in

addition to chalcocite, cuprite, and other low-sulphur copper species and some copper locked in

hydrobiotite. Extensive metallurgical testing has been carried out on these deposits, with appropriate

processing design and estimation of recoveries. Within these deposits a narrow transition zone occurs

between the copper zone and underlying sulphide zone.

Sample Preparation, Analyses, and Security

There is very little documentation about sample collection, preparation, and security for the pre-1997 drilling

campaigns, although the nature of the exploration programmes, preservation of data, and logging records all

indicate that the drilling programmes were carried out in a professional and competent manner. Later

exploration programmes by URL (beginning in 2002) and Altona (in 2011), which provided the vast majority

of the drill data, were carried out with above industry-standard sample collection methods, and appropriate

quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) protocols. RC drilling accounts for more than 90% of the

Project samples, and these samples were collected using standard cyclones and splitters at the drill site.

Samples lengths were initially 2 m for URL; however, they were changed to 1 m in 2003. Almost all of Altona’s

samples were 1 m in length.

Samples were bagged and sealed in the field, and shipped to commercial laboratories in either Townsville or

Brisbane. Regular duplicate samples of RC chips were inserted into the sample stream at a rate of 1 in every

20, and triplicate samples collected at the time of drilling were inserted into the sample stream at the rate of

1 in every 40. Appropriate reference standards and blank samples were inserted at rates of 1 in every 20 and

1 in every 45, respectively. Much of the sample material has been retained, mostly as pulp samples; however,

there is some coarse reject material, and it is stored in carefully organised warehouses, which also contain

split diamond drill core. All analytical information has been carefully archived in an electronic database,

which has been reviewed for accuracy by independent consultants and Harmony.

Data Verification

Historical drill locations were checked and resurveyed by subsequent operators, and assay data has been

examined and checked by third-party consultants involved in previous Feasibility Studies. There is no

apparent bias in the assay data from drill campaigns involving four different companies. The resource QP

examined drill core on site and found adequate agreement between geology and historical logs, and visual

estimates of copper grade were in agreement with assays. Assay results from drill holes completed to obtain

metallurgical samples in the Little Eva and Turkey Creek deposits in 2018, and in the Blackard deposit in 2019

and additional drilling completed by Harmony during 2023-2025, compare favourably to adjacent block

grades within the block models, supporting both the database and Mineral Resource estimation.

on the Project property. This report generalises the various ore sources into one of two classes for design

purposes: sulphides, and native copper. The various ore sources were studied from the perspective of newer

technologies including  direct flotation reactors for flotation.

The Little Eva deposit is the largest deposit in the Project. This deposit has been well studied, with 145

flotation tests from multiple sources that ranged in scope from benchtop to pilot plant. This mineralisation

consistently demonstrates high recovery performance with a high degree of liberation at relatively coarse

grinds. The average feed competency lies near the 50th percentile of the JK database, with medium to hard

Bond work indices. Copper is present as chalcopyrite with trace amounts of pyrite. Strong flotation kinetics

result in high recoveries, concentrating to a good final concentrate grade following a nominal regrind with no

pH modification. Overall, this material type presents low technical risk.

The sulphide satellite deposits, comprising Turkey Creek, Bedford, Lady Clayre, and Ivy Ann, are smaller

sources. These mineralisation types are generally similar to Little Eva from both a comminution and flotation

perspective. Some differences include a stronger deportment of copper to bornite, and varying grade

distribution. Overall, these deposits show average copper recoveries of 88% to 95%, and represent sources of

high recovery material. The specific recoveries for each pit are used as inputs into the mine schedule and

financial model.

The copper-only deposits, Blackard and Scanlan, are distinctly different from other deposits in the area,

containing oxide cap, native copper, sulphide transition, and sulphide zones. The native copper zones are the

largest copper-bearing zones within these deposits, containing a relatively fine distribution of native copper

with varying quantities of sulphides. These deposits were studied by previous owners; however, several

recent updates have been completed. In total, 410 flotation tests (including blended ore feed) have been

completed, ranging from benchtop to pilot scale work. On a flotation basis, the native copper zones typically

achieve 60% recovery, with an additional 2% to 3% achievable by gravity methods. Recovery is highly variable

as deportment shifts from native copper to sulphides, requiring flexibility within any processing flowsheet

between gravity and flotation operations to achieve an average of 56% overall recovery. This ore is typically

very soft, resulting in low comminution costs and high mill throughputs. Below the native copper- bearing

zones of both Blackard and Scanlan are sulphide zones containing bornite and chalcopyrite, behaving

similarly to Turkey Creek ore. The flotation response of the ore from the native copper to the sulphide

transition zone increases with sulphide content, as expected.

In total, the abovementioned work has been sourced from 25 metallurgical testing campaigns completed at

established metallurgical labs throughout Australia and British Columbia, Canada, from 1996 to 2019.

Concentrate Characterization

Detailed chemical analyses were performed on the concentrates produced from the testwork programmes,

and the results indicate that there appear to be no impurity elements present in the concentrate at a level

that will incur smelter penalties. Provision for separate dewatering and containment of gravity concentrates

is included in the plant design for future sampling or marketing opportunities.

Tailings Handling

Tailings generated from the bulk samples processed during the DFR testwork were sent to Paterson & Cooke

in Denver, Colorado, for tailings characterisation. The samples were examined both separately and as a

blend. In both cases no concerns were highlighted with tailings settling performance. A reasonable target of

63% solids was selected for tailings thickener underflow design.

Mineral Resources Estimate

Eva Copper Project Resources

Mineral Resource estimates for the three largest deposits (being Little Eva, Blackard and Turkey Creek) were

prepared by SRK and Harmony personnel, based on all drilling conducted up to January 2024. The Resource

models from CMMC have been audited and retained for the other deposits.The effective date of the resource

estimates is 30 June 2025. 

Effective date: 30 June 2025

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

The Mineral Resource for mineralisation, assumed to be amenable to open pit and underground mining

methods, is reported in situ.

The resource estimates were built using Ordinary Kriging for Little Eva, Blackard and Turkey Creek, all other

deposits utilised Inverse distance weighting. Block sizes were selected based on the drillhole spacing to

ensure the estimate is fully informed, Block sizes were matched to the anticipated mining methods and

mining equipment sizes. 

Resource domains were based on an assessment of the lithology, alteration, grade distribution and structure.

The grade-based domains resulted from an analysis of the grade distribution from the assay table. For the

IOCG deposits the domains were based on the 0.1% copper grade shell which equates to the first visual

occurrence of chalcopyrite in logging. Turkey Creek and Blackard were constrained by a 0.1% copper shell,

defined by statistical analysis of the drill hole data, the earlier CMMC resource models were defined by a

0.1% copper shell.

Analysis at the Little Eva deposit of the underlying lithology indicates it does not have a significant impact on

grade distribution and so lithology was not included in the domain construction, likewise for the oxidation

profile. There are, however, several significant faults that have an impact on the deposit and these were

incorporated into the estimate, dividing the Little Eva estimation domain into 3 parts.  While Turkey Creek

comprises of two sub-parallel high grade domains with a central low grade core, these domains were not

used in the estimate. Lithology and oxidation profiles, while assessed for impact were found to not be

significant contributors to grade distribution and did not inform the grade domains. A significant fault with

splays, the Turkey Creek Fault, cut across the northern end of the deposit and splits the domain into two

components.  Blackard and Scanlan are both native copper deposits and analysis of these deposits indicate a

0.1% copper shell was appropriate. Both these deposits are folded and comprise antiform/synform pairs that

were used to inform the estimate, Blackard utilised dynamic anisotropy, guided by the fold surface, Scanlan

was divided into several separate domains in order to handle the changing anisotropy. Lady Clayre comprises

five separate mineralised zones, defined by copper shells at 0.1% based on analysis of the grade distribution.

The geology is strongly deformed and the various domains define the different components of this folded

stratigraphy. The Bedford deposit is a narrow mineralised shear zone, and the estimation domain is

controlled by the 0.1% copper shell which defines the boundaries of the shear, the estimation domain is

entirely geologically based. The Ivy Ann deposit estimation domain is based on the 0.1% Cu shell equating to

the first occurrence of chalcopyrite and comprises several independent structural domains.

The constraining pit shells for defining the limits of Inferred resources and to define reasonable prospects for

economic extraction are based on copper prices, costs and metallurgical recoveries determined from work

carried out, and described, in this TRS. Resources were constrained by Whittle pit shells generated using

metal prices of US$5.10/lb Cu, US$1,941/oz Au and an exchange rate of 0.68 AU$:US$. The Whittle shell was

based on the following parameters:

•Plant throughput of 18 Mtpa, with a mining rate of 60 Mtpa

•A mining reference cost of AU$3.93/tonne

•Approximately AU$11.00/t Ore processing cost.

•Ore Haulage cost of AU$0.35/t/km

•Slope angles informed by historic studies with an average of 45 degrees. 

•Copper Recovery is dependant on copper mineralogy, 95% Sulphide and 56% native copper.

•A 10mx10mx10m diluted block model.

A zone of oxidation overlies all of the seven deposits in the Eva Copper Project. The base of the oxidised zone

is generally sharp (±2 m), and was modelled during resource estimation. In the current mine plan, the

oxidised material is treated as waste, as currently there does not appear to be any form of economic

extraction; however, grades have been modelled and tonnages tabulated for general interest and in the

event of a possible processing path being identified in the future. The tonnage and grade of oxidised material

were determined in the same manner and at the same time as the other resource estimations.

Notes:

Resources are reported at a cut-off grade are based on approximate NSR values which equate to a copper grade of 0.16% Cu for sulphide

material and 0.25% for native copper .

Mineral Resources:

1.SAMREC  and CIM definitions were followed for Mineral Resources.

2.Mineral Resources are exclusive of Mineral Reserves (however no Mineral Reserve are declared)

3.Mineral Resources are constrained within a Whittle pit shell generated with a copper price of $5.10/lb, a gold price of $1,941/oz and

an exchange rate of AU$1.00 = US$0.68

4.Density measurements were applied (ranges from 2.4 t/m3 to 3.0 t/m3).

5.Significant figures have been reduced to reflect uncertainty of estimations and therefore numbers may not add due to rounding.

6. Tonnes are Metric Units (1t = 1000Kg)

7. Mineral Resource tonnages and grades are reported in situ.

Mineral Reserve Estimate

Not applicable to this TRS

Mineral Reserves were declared by CMMC as reported in their 43-101 2020 Feasibility Update.

During Harmony due diligence prior to acquiring the Project, a number of risks and opportunities were

identified. Accordingly, upon purchase, Harmony planned and commenced a drilling programme to expand

and refine the resource and commenced studies to test processing, infrastructure, water and power

assumptions. Due to the significant potential change these studies may imply, it is deemed premature to

release the Reserves. It is anticipated that these studies will be completed in late 2025, upon which a Reserve

may be declared.

Royalties

State of Queensland royalties apply to all lands except freehold claims prior to 1904. State royalties range

between 2.5% and 5.0% of metal value, less certain allowable expenses. If the concentrate is processed in

Queensland (Mount Isa) there is a 20% reduction in the copper royalty. 100% of the royalty savings from the

Queensland Government is for the account of CMMC. Royalties are discussed in detail in Section 3.6.

Environment, Permitting, Social, or Community Impact

To support environmental assessments and project studies, flora and fauna surveys, groundwater

programmes and waste and tailings rock characterisation, amongst others, have been undertaken to support

an appreciation of the environment and its sensitivities, to predict impacts and inform mitigation and control

measures. This dataset continues to be supplemented by contemporary studies and monitoring data. 

All regional ecosystems mapped within the Project area are classed as Least Concern under the Vegetation

Management Act 1999. In accordance with the project's EA, significant residual impacts to prescribed

environmental matters, are not authorised with the exception of:

•Regional ecosystems (not within an urban area) within the defined distance from the defining banks

of a relevant watercourse on the vegetation management watercourse map.

•Habitat for an animal that is vulnerable wildlife – Purple-necked Rock-wallaby Monitoring programme

(Petrogale purpureicollis).

The maximum extent of impact to each authorised prescribed environmental matter must be offset in

accordance with the Environmental Offsets Act 2014 and the QLD Environmental Offsets Policy. Staged

delivery of offsets will be secured for the Project aligned with the Project execution schedule.

Tailings and waste characterisation work has shown the majority of samples to be geochemically benign. The

risks associated with release of contaminants into the environment have been considered with the tailings

storage facility ("TSF"), waste rock dump ("WRD"), and processing plant area designs incorporating surface

water management control dams, cut-off drains, monitoring, and low permeability base for the TSF.

Surface water and groundwater monitoring programmes have been in place since 2012 and are reviewed

frequently to align with the prevailing project design and the scale of any site activities. Additional

compliance and monitoring bores have been established during FY25.

The closest sensitive receptor to the Project is the Mount Roseby homestead, approximately 17.5 km

southeast of Little Eva pit and processing plant while the closest pit, Scanlan, is approximately 1 km west of

Mount Roseby. Noise and air quality monitoring is a requirement of the EA, and dust baseline monitoring has

been completed. A Compensation Agreement is in place which includes conditions to be implemented

throughout the life of mine ("LOM") with respect to the Mount Roseby station and its Lands.

The evidence of European history in the area is not of local or State significance. The recognised traditional

owners and Native Title holders of the Project area are the Kalkadoon People. The Company has a Cultural

Heritage and Access Agreement and Management Plan with the Native Title holders covering the full area of

the Project MLs. The ML area has been the subject of systematic Indigenous cultural heritage clearing which

remains ongoing.

In addition to managing environmental and heritage responsibilities the Company recognises and has

reflected the importance it places on building and training its workforce, supporting the local community and

stakeholders, and a commitment to achieve the highest standards of safety and health for its business

practices. Through our agreement with the Kalkadoon People, the Company will strive to provide

employment opportunities for local Indigenous people. The key community risk requiring management from

commencement of operations through the LOM will be the additional vehicular traffic along the Burke

Developmental Road and through Cloncurry.

Adjacent Properties

The Eva Copper Project is located within a world-class mineral province richly endowed with an attractive

number of commodities and deposit types. It is commonly known that the Mount Isa – Cloncurry region is

one of the premier base-metal producing districts in the world with mining dating back to 1867, first at

Cloncurry, then from the larger Mount Isa mining centre starting in 1923. There are numerous historical and

active mines in the region, with the major, internationally important mines closest to the Project being the

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

3Property description

Section 229.601(b)(96)(iii)(B)(3)(i-vii)

3.1Location

The Eva Copper Project is located 76 km by road northwest of Cloncurry, a town of about 3,000 inhabitants,

and 194 km by road from Mount Isa, a regional mining centre with a population of about 22,000 people

(Figure 3-1). Townsville on the east coast is 770 km from Cloncurry. Access to the Project is from the sealed

Burke Developmental Road, which originates in Cloncurry. This road passes 8.5 km to the east of the

proposed plant site, and current access is via cattle station and exploration tracks. The planned site for the

plant and major infrastructure is also 11 km north of the major Dugald River Zinc Mine, which was

commissioned in November 2017 and is owned by MMG Limited (MMG). The Eva Copper Project is situated

at a latitude of 19°51'26”S and longitude of 140°10’15”E.

Figure 3-1: Project Location

3.2Land Use and Mining Tenure

The Eva Copper Project consists of five MLs and one EPM. All six of the deposits are located within the

MLs, except for the Ivy Ann deposit, which lies within EPM 25760 (King).

Queensland state legislation requires that, where significant disturbance will occur from exploration and

mining activities, the license holder must reach agreement for “Conduct and Compensation” with the

pastoral leaseholder. Harmony has secured such agreements for all the MLs, the Ivy Ann deposit, and those

portions of the EPM where ground disturbance has occurred or is anticipated.

3.3Mining Leases

The MLs were granted in 2012 and are currently owned by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Eva

Copper Mine Pty. Ltd. ("ECMPL") (Table 3-1). The MLs total area is 143 km2 and are situated across from two

pastoral lease holdings and within one Native Title determination area.

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

4Accessibility, climate, local resources, infrastructure, and physiography.

Section 229.601(b)(96)(iii)(B)(4) (i‐iv)

4.1Accessibility and Infrastructure

The Project tenements are in North West Queensland and are shown in Figure 4-1. Access to the Project is by

the sealed Barkly Highway from Mount Isa to Cloncurry, then on the sealed Burke Developmental Road,

through Quamby. The highway passes 8.5 km to the east of the proposed plant site, and current access is by

way of a gravel road. The planned site for the plant and major infrastructure is 11 km due north of the Dugald

River zinc mine owned by MMG, which had first production in November 2017.

The Project is located about 65 km (76 km by road) northwest of Cloncurry, a town of about 3,000

inhabitants, and about 95 km (194 km by road) from Mount Isa, a regional mining centre with a population of

about 22,000 people.

Cloncurry is located on the railway line from Townsville to Mount Isa and has container handling facilities, an

airport (which hosts both commercial and FIFO jet aircraft services), and a regional fuel depot. Cloncurry also

has schools, hospitals, and other services. The Project lies within the Shire of Cloncurry local government

administrative area and the Shire offices are based in Cloncurry.

Quamby is a tiny hamlet to the southeast of the proposed plant site, with a now-closed roadhouse on the

highway, and a Telstra communications tower.

Kajabbi is a small hamlet to the north of the area and has stockyards that were used for loading cattle onto a

railway line that used to run south through Quamby to Cloncurry. The railway line from Cloncurry north to

Kajabbi has been removed, and all that remains is the easement, which is still owned by Queensland

Transport.

Grid power is reticulated from Mount Isa to Cloncurry, and power is generated in Mount Isa at two gas-fired

power stations. A 220-kV power line has been constructed from the Chumvale substation near Cloncurry to

the Dugald River mine, 11 km from Little Eva.

A water pipeline operated by SunWater passes within 4 km of Little Eva and is fed from Lake Julius, 41 km to

the west, and reticulated to the Ernest Henry mine, and the Cloncurry townsite. Dugald River also has a

water take-off from this pipeline. The pipeline has a capacity of seven gigalitres per year (GL/a).

4.2Climate and Surface Water

The Bureau of Meteorology weather station closest to the Project site is located on McIlwraith Street,

Cloncurry, and has records dating back to 1884. The mean annual maximum temperature is 32.2°C, and

the average annual rainfall for the region is 474 mm/a.

Mean temperatures in the dry season range from 26.2°C to 36.4°C from April to October. Temperatures

range from mean monthly highs of 26.2°C to 38.5°C, to monthly lows of 10.6°C to 24.8°C. Minimum and

maximum recorded temperatures range from to 1.8°C to 46.9°C. The hottest months correspond with the

wet season, between November and March.

Mean wind speeds measured at the Mount Isa Airport weather station shows that the later months of the

year exhibit the highest wind speeds, peaking in October at an average speed of 15.8 km/h. Wind speeds are

lowest in the cooler months of the year, at an average of 9.5 km/h in June. Maximum wind gusts range from

a low of 63 km/h in July up to 128 km/h in January.

The relative humidity at the Cloncurry weather station peaks in February, typically reaching 39% at 3:00 p.m.,

and 61% at 9:00 a.m. The peak fire season for the Project area is winter to spring (July to September), when

the vegetation is at its driest.

Rainfall is seasonal, largely occurring between November and March (wet season), and generally occurs in

large storms. Rainfall is highly variable from year to year, with the region often experiencing multi-year

droughts and large-scale flooding from major rainfall events. After the dry season, storm rains of

approximately 25 mm/d may occur, which may include intense periods equivalent to 24 mm/h, which would

generate runoff in the smaller creeks.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

The Project site is serviced by a complex system of surface drainages that flow generally northward. On the

western side of the plant and Little Eva pit is Cabbage Tree Creek, which is joined by other creeks flowing

northward to become a tributary of the Leichhardt River. The central parts of the ML drain into the Dugald

River. Numerous other minor ephemeral watercourses cross the Project area.

Creeks and rivers only flow during, and for a brief period following, the wet season. Intensive rains, with

cumulative falls up to 50 mm over a few days, generate flows in the larger creeks, such as Cabbage Tree

Creek and Dugald River. Peak flows are generally of short duration. Most stream flow ceases within days or a

few weeks after intensive wet periods, after which the flow channel breaks into isolated pools. The rivers and

creeks have a composite profile consisting of a steep-sided main channel 1 m to 1.5 m in depth in which

flows occur annually, often to bank height. Isolated pools in the riverbeds can persist through the dry season

in sand, gravel, and crystalline rock fractures. Water can generally be found below the riverbeds at a depth of

one to two metres.

The Project has groundwater sources from both hard rock fracture zone systems and from a graben- like

structure filled in with Phanerozoic sediments. In addition to this geological feature, the main creeks are

associated with extensive thin sheets of colluvial outwash and alluvial deposits, with groundwater present in

the deeper parts of these deposits.

4.3Landforms and Vegetation

The Project site and broader operation area is gently undulating, with the Knapdale range of hills rising quite

sharply from the plain to the south of the proposed operations area, with a length of approximately 12 km,

and rising to an average height of 300 Australian Height Datum metres above sea level (mASL). A discrete

north–south ridgeline, which includes Mount Rose Bee and the Green Hills, transects the area on the western

side of the Bedford deposit. Mount Rose Bee (approximately 285 mASL) is characterised by ridges of exposed

silicified rock.

The site is currently crossed by several access tracks from farming and exploration activities. SunWater’s

water pipeline from Lake Julius to the Ernest Henry mine crosses the lease area from west to east.

The predominant land use is low-intensity cattle grazing, although exploration and mining activities have

been conducted over the area since the late 1800s. Soils of the Project site are typically slightly acid to

moderately alkaline, and non-sodic and therefore non-dispersive in nature, meaning they are not chemically

predisposed to erosion. Most of the erosion potential of these soils originates from the short duration, high

intensity rainfall events that can occur during the summer period (December to March).

4.4Local Mining Industry

Mount Isa was established on the discovery of world-scale copper-zinc-lead deposits in 1923. A major mining

complex and a town of 22,000 people has grown on the site in the last 94 years, with multiple open pit and

underground mines, smelters, mills, flotation plants, and a sulphuric acid plant. The town of Mount Isa hosts

many mining suppliers, service organisations, and a number of skilled mining industry people, as well as

having two electric-powered generators supplied by a natural gas pipeline from South Australia, an airport,

rail line, and other services.

Cloncurry was established much earlier than Mount Isa, on the discovery of copper by Ernest Henry in 1867,

and the town was founded in 1884.

There are several active mines in the area, as shown in Figure 4-1. In addition to Mount Isa, there are five

major active mines: the Ernest Henry copper-gold mine and Lady Loretta lead-zinc-silver mine, both owned

by Glencore; the Cannington silver-lead mine owned by South 32; the Dugald River zinc-lead-silver mine

owned by MMG; and the Capricorn Copper copper-gold mine owned by Capricorn Copper. All are major,

internationally important mines.

Smaller operations (active and in care and maintenance) include: Osborne copper-gold mine, owned by

Inova; Mount Colin copper mine, owned by Aeris Resources Limited, Lady Annie copper-gold mine, owned by

Austral Resources; Mount Cuthbert Copper mine, owned by Mt Cuthbert Resources; Rocklands copper- gold

mine, owned by Mt Cuthbert Resources; and Eloise copper-gold mine, owned by AIC Mines.

Closed major mines include the Mary Kathleen uranium mine.

QP’s Opinion: In the QP’s opinion, the accessibility, climate, local resources, infrastructure, and physiography

of the Eva Copper Project are adequately described and present no unusual features that would compromise

the reporting of Mineral Resources. The conditions are typical of the Mount Isa–Cloncurry district and

provide a reasonable basis for disclosure of the Mineral Resource estimates

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

5History

Section 229.601(b)(96)(iii)(B)(5) (i‐ii)

5.1Prior Ownership and Changes

The Project area has a long history of exploration and development. Early work was undertaken by Ausminda

Pty. Ltd. and CRAE between 1990 and 1996. CRAE’s principal focus was the copper-only deposits where they

were successful in discovering a number of deposits. The Little Eva and Lady Clayre deposits were of

secondary interest to CRAE, who drilled the Little Eva deposit to define a small deposit of 9 Mt assayed at

0.70% copper (Cu), gold (Au) grade was not reported.

In 1996, the property was acquired by Pasminco, who undertook further exploration and drilling on the

copper-only deposits. Pasminco excised and retained the Dugald River zinc deposit and sold the remainder of

the tenements to URL in 2001. The Little Eva deposit was first fully delineated by URL. Pasminco was taken

over by Zinifex in 2002, and in 2008 Zinifex merged with Oxiana to become Oz Minerals. Oz Minerals’ interest

in the Dugald River zinc deposit was acquired in 2009 by MMG, a subsidiary of China Minmetals.

From 2001 to 2004, exploration work on the Blackard, Scanlan, and Longamundi copper-only deposits was

carried out under a joint venture (JV) between URL and Bolnisi Logistics. In 2004, URL acquired Bolnisi

Logistics and assumed full management of the Project. Bolnisi Logistics then changed its name to Roseby

Copper Pty. Ltd. URL focused its 2001–2004 drilling on the Little Eva and Bedford copper-gold deposits, and

completed a Feasibility Study in 2005 based on mining and processing a blend of sulphide ore from the Little

Eva and Bedford deposits with native copper ore from the Blackard and Scanlan deposits; however, URL did

not proceed with development.

URL entered into a JV Option Agreement with Xstrata in 2005, where Xstrata had the right to explore in the

central area of the tenements. Xstrata discovered the Cabbage Tree Creek prospect, and significant sulphide

mineralisation beneath the Blackard deposit. Xstrata elected not to proceed with the option to purchase an

interest in the Project in January 2013. URL completed a second Feasibility Study between 2007 and 2009

based on the same blend of sulphide ore and native copper ore used in the 2005 study.

In December 2009, URL merged with Vulcan Resources Limited, and the company name changed to Altona.

Altona drilled out the Little Eva deposit, doubling the Mineral Resource, and in 2012 completed a Definitive

Feasibility Study ("DFS") based on the increased resources of copper-gold sulphide deposits, with this TRS

excluding the Blackard and Scanlan deposits. Altona’s philosophy was to take a simpler approach that did not

rely on ore blending and to address mining and processing of native copper ores once operations were

established, in the context of extending mine life or increasing the production rate.

Altona completed drilling at the Bedford, Lady Clayre, Ivy Ann, Blackard, Legend, and Scanlan deposits, and

published Mineral Resource upgrades for all these deposits. Altona published Mineral Reserves for the Little

Eva, Bedford, Lady Clayre, and Ivy Ann deposits as part of their 2012 DFS. Altona discovered a significant

resource at Turkey Creek and published Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates for the deposit in

2015 and 2016, respectively. Altona also discovered and delineated major prospects at Anzac, Whitcher,

Matchbox, and Quamby from 2015 to 2016.

MLs and an EA were granted in 2012 based on the 2009 DFS mine plan. An EA amendment was granted in

2016 based on the revised 2012 DFS mine plan and the integration of Turkey Creek into the mine plan.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

Altona and the project was acquired by CMMC in 2018. The project was subsequently acquired by Harmony

in 2023.

Prior to the acquisition by Harmony, and excluding acquisition costs, approximately $63 million has been

expended on exploration, resource development, metallurgical and engineering studies, compensation

payments, and government fees and charges by the various parties involved over the past 27 years,

including:

CRAE (estimate)	$7.4 million
Zinifex/Pasminco	$0.7 million
Bolnisi	$4.1 million
URL	$24.2 million
Xstrata	$8.5 million
Altona	$18.4 million

5.2Mineral Resource Estimates History

5.2.1Little Eva Deposit

The Little Eva deposit has had several formal Mineral Resource estimates that reflect stages of resource

definition (Table 5-1). The 2008 and 2012 Mineral Resource estimates include both sulphide and oxide

material, while the 2014 estimate is for sulphide material only, with the oxide material excluded.

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

In March 2012, Altona, in conjunction with Optiro, reported a Mineral Resource that incorporated newly

acquired assay and geological data provided by extensive drill programmes. The published estimate of 108

Mt at 0.52% Cu and 0.09 g/t Au includes both sulphide and oxide mineralisation. This estimate formed the

basis of pit optimisations used in the 2012 DFS and 2014 DFS update.

In May 2014, Altona published a revised Mineral Resource estimate. Geological models were limited in

former estimates, because of inconsistent drill hole logging between multiple corporations and programmes.

The 2014 used a new geological model based on a detailed drill hole relogging programme by Altona in

2013-2014. The estimate of 105.9 Mt at 0.52% Cu and 0.09 g/t Au is for primary sulphide geotechnical

mineralisation only, and excludes oxide mineralisation, which is not amenable to processing through the

proposed Eva Copper Project plant. No additional drilling was added after the 2012 estimate leading up to

the 2014 estimate, and differences between the 2012 and 2014 Mineral Resource estimates were not

considered material; however, confidence in the geological models was improved. The 2014 estimate was

used for pit optimisations undertaken by Orelogy, and to relocate mine and waste dump layouts and develop

schedules to accommodate Turkey Creek into the mine plan. This work was undertaken for the 2016 EA

Amendment. These optimisations were not used in the mine design or financial modelling of the August 2017

Altona DFS.

In November 2018, CMMC published a Mineral Resource estimate, which incorporated limited newly

acquired assay and geological data provided by diamond core holes drilled for metallurgical, geotechnical,

and due diligence purposes. The published estimate of 121.8 Mt at 0.36% Cu and 0.07 g/t Au includes

sulphide mineralisation only. This estimate formed the basis of pit optimisations used in CMMC’s 2018

Feasibility Study and the 2019 Feasibility Study update.

Limited additional drilling was added after the 2014 estimate; differences between the 2014 and 2018

Mineral Resource estimates reflect a lower minimum reporting cut-off grade, different modelling approach,

and exclusion of material classified as Inferred from the reported total.

Harmony completed an update to the resource in February 2023 after project purchase. The estimate used

indicator kriging and resulted in an estimate of 167Mt @ 0.38% Cu and 0.07g/t Au. This model was used to

design new drilling with the aim of targeting under drilled areas of the deposit.

Harmony completed an additional update to the Resource in September of 2023 after stage 1 of the

additional drilling. This Resource, reported and classified in accordance with SAMREC 2016 and Regulation S-

K 1300, resulted in 163Mt @ 0.35% Cu and 0.07g/t Au.

Data from 13 new drill holes was included in the June 2024 Resource estimate. Differences between the

February 2024 and June 2024 Mineral Resource estimates reflect a change in corporate price guidance, a

different modelling approach, and changes to mining costs.

5.2.2Turkey Creek Deposit

Turkey Creek was discovered in September 2012 after the 2012 DFS was completed. The only Mineral

Resource estimate for Turkey Creek was completed in 2015 by Optiro and Altona. Altona was responsible for

the data and 3D geological model. Mineral Resource estimation and block modelling was conducted by

Optiro (Table 5-2). The estimate was 21 Mt grading 0.59% Cu, and it includes both sulphide and oxide

mineralisation.

The 2015 resource model was used by Orelogy to generate pit designs and waste volumes included in the

mine plan, and was used to generate a new layout of pits, waste dumps, and the TSF for the 2016 EA. The

Orelogy pit optimisations were based on primary sulphide mineralisation only. The sulphide resource was

estimated at 16.5 Mt at 0.59% Cu.

In November 2018, CMMC published a Mineral Resource estimate, which incorporated limited newly

acquired assay and geological data provided by diamond core holes drilled for metallurgical, geotechnical,

and due diligence purposes. The published estimate of 13.8 Mt at 0.46% Cu includes sulphide mineralisation

only and formed the basis of pit optimisations used in CMMC’s 2018 Feasibility Study and their 2019

Feasibility Study update.

The 2015 Mineral Resource for Turkey Creek included an oxide component, while the other deposits

modelled did not. There was a reasonable expectation of achieving acceptable recoveries from the oxide

material based on the mineralogy using the Controlled Potential Sulphidisation (CPS) technique for flotation

processing. However, initial metallurgical testing of this processing method produced poor recoveries, and

the oxide material was excluded from the 2018 Mineral Resource.

Limited additional drilling was added after the 2015 estimate, and differences between the 2015 and 2018

Mineral Resource estimates reflect a lower minimum reporting cut-off grade, different modelling approach,

and exclusion of material classified as Inferred from the reported total.

5.2.3Bedford Deposit

The Bedford deposit has had several formal Mineral Resource estimates completed that reflect stages of

resource definition, as shown in Table 5-3. The 2012 and 2017 estimates are for sulphide material only.

In October 2006, McDonald Speijers completed an initial Mineral Resource estimate. In May 2012, Optiro

completed an estimate based on nominal additional drilling. There was no significant change in the Mineral

Resource of 1.7 Mt at 0.99% Cu and 0.20 g/t Au.

Geological models forming the basis of these estimates were poorly constrained, with isolated individual

structures within a broader shear zone showing limited continuity.

*Total estimated Mineral Resource including Inferred; reported in accordance with JORC.

In February 2017, Altona completed a new Mineral Resource estimate of 4.8 Mt at a grade of 0.80% Cu and

0.21 g/t Au that includes primary sulphide mineralisation only. The increase from the 2012 estimate resulted

primarily from a better understanding of geological continuity and geometry.

Mineralised structures were better defined by mapping of surface workings and high-resolution copper- in-

soil sampling. An increase in tonnage was a result of more accurate bulk density data obtained from diamond

drill core, therefore replacing prior bulk density estimates.

In November 2018, CMMC published a Mineral Resource estimate of 3.0 Mt at 0.54% Cu and 0.14 g/t Au

includes sulphide mineralisation only.

No significant new drill data was added after the 2017 estimate, and differences between the 2017 and 2018

Mineral Resource estimates reflect a lower minimum reporting cut-off grade, different modelling approach,

and exclusion of material classified as Inferred from the reported total.

5.2.4Lady Clayre Deposit

The Lady Clayre deposit has had several formal Mineral Resource estimates that reflect stages of resource

definition, as shown in Table 5-4.

In October 2006, McDonald Speijers completed a Mineral Resource estimate that was reported in accordance

with JORC 2004 for the Lady Clayre deposit. This was incorporated into URL’s 2009 Feasibility Study.

Significant new drill data was added after the 2012 estimate; the updated CMMC model used the new drill

hole assay data but was not constrained by the revised geological model. Differences between the 2012 and

5.2.6Blackard Deposit

The Blackard deposit has had several formal Mineral Resource estimates that reflect stages of resource

definition, as shown in Table 5-6. While early estimates from 2003 included all mineralisation (oxide, copper,

transition, and sulphide zones) the 2012 Mineral Resource estimate only included native copper, transition

and primary sulphide, the oxide zone was excluded.

In December 2005, McDonald Speijers completed a Mineral Resource estimate for the Blackard deposit. In

February 2007, McDonald Speijers completed another Mineral Resource estimate update.

In May 2012, Optiro completed an estimate of recoverable resources for the Blackard deposit. The estimate

of 76.4 Mt at 0.62% Cu includes native copper, transition, and primary sulphide mineralisation only. This

estimate incorporated newly acquired data from substantial additional drilling since the 2006 estimate.

Data from 18 new drill holes was added to the 2019 resource estimate by CMMC. Differences between the

reported 2012 and 2019 Mineral Resource estimates reflect lower cut-off grades, different modelling

approach, and exclusion of Inferred resources.

The 202309 SRK Resource model included an additional 15 RC holes and relied on a new geological model

and a different modelling approach using variable anisotropy. The total included inferred material and was

reported using a global cut-off and a reporting constraint shell based on a copper price of US$5.55/Lb. As

input to a high-level study a global cut-off was used while various assumptions on metallurgical recovery,

mining costs and milling costs were tested.

The 202309 SRK model was replaced by the 202402 SRK model which has been built on the original 202309

model but with updates to the DH database, including 44 additional drillholes (many of which were

Metallurgical and geotechnical holes and did not inform the grade estimate), and amended collar coordinates

for a number of drillholes. Additionally, metallurgical and mining studies informed likely cut-off grades for the

different ore domains, and these have been used in the reporting of the 202402 Mineral Resource.

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

6Geological setting, Mineralisation, and Deposit

Section 229.601(b)(96) (ii)(B) (6) (i‐iii)

6.1Regional Geology

The Project is located within the Proterozoic rocks of the Mount Isa Province of Queensland, Australia. The

region is one of the world’s premier base metal provinces, with mining continuing uninterrupted since

discovery of copper and gold near Cloncurry in the 1860s. The Mount Isa Province hosts numerous copper

mines, including several of global significance. The Mount Isa Province also hosts the world’s two largest lead

producers, the second largest silver producer, and until recently was the world leading source of zinc.

Economic accumulations of various other commodities, including gold, molybdenum, rare earth elements,

uranium, and phosphate, occur throughout the area.

The Project is situated within the Mary Kathleen domain, and to a lesser extent the Canobie domain of the

late Palaeoproterozoic Eastern Fold Belt of the Mount Isa Inlier (Figure 6-1), which largely comprises

metamorphosed marine sedimentary and volcanic rocks some 1,590 to 1,790 Ma old.

Numerous granite and mafic intrusions were emplaced at various times before 1,100 Ma.

The Project area rocks have undergone polyphase deformation, metamorphism, and metasomatism during

the Isan Orogeny (1,600–1,500 Ma), which resulted in east-west shortening and extensive plutonism. The

orogeny formed the major north-south trending upright folds and structural domains that characterise the

province. Deformation and late- to post-orogenic plutonism is most pronounced in the Eastern Fold Belt

where it is associated with widespread high temperature sodium-iron metasomatism expressed as magnetite

or hematite alteration assemblages. Iron-oxide-copper gold ("IOCG") mineralisation is a variant of the Na-Fe

metasomatism and the Project deposits are examples of such mineralisation. IOCG mineralisation developed

in the waning stages of the Isan Orogeny and is prevalent throughout the Eastern Fold Belt.

North- and north-easterly-trending crustal scale faulting transects the Province, bounding and cutting

geological domains. The structures are the locus of major base and precious metal deposits. The deformation

recorded by faulting and folding is complex, dominated at different stages by extension, shortening, and

transcurrent faulting. The major faults have long reactivation histories during the Proterozoic, with evidence

of recurrent activity in the Phanerozoic. During the latter part of the Isan Orogeny, at the time of IOCG

mineralisation, the pre-existing faults were reactivated into a dominantly strike-slip wrench system, with

east-west to southeast-northwest directed shortening accompanying emplacement of the William Batholiths

(1,530–1,490 Ma).

The Project deposits are located within the Mary Kathleen ("MK") domain, which is an elongate belt on the

east side of the Kalkadoon-Leichhardt domain, has a length of 180 km and an approximate width of 20 km,

and was modified by the Wonga extensional event (approx. 1,740 Ma) which included emplacement of the

Wonga Suite granites. The MK domain hosts the Dugald River zinc deposit, the Tick Hill gold deposit, the

Mary Kathleen uranium deposit, and the Phosphate Hill phosphate deposit, in addition to the Project’s

copper-gold deposits.

The Canobie domain is located east of the Mary Kathleen domain, and the two are juxtaposed by the

Fountain Range and Pilgrim Faults. The Canobie domain is fault bounded, poorly exposed, largely defined by

highly magnetic and buried William-Naraku intrusions and is host to the Ernest Henry copper-gold deposit.

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

6.1.1Regional Stratigraphy

The Little Eva deposit, which contains most of the resources in the Eva Copper Project, lies within the

northern exposed portion of the Mount Isa Eastern Succession. Rocks within this area include a variety of

Palaeoproterozoic sediments and volcanic and intrusive rocks, as illustrated in Figure 6-2 and Figure 6-3. The

Palaeorproterozoic age (1,770±5 Ma) Corella Formation dominates the deposit area, and comprises scapolitic

calcareous metasediments, quartzites, and granofels (Betts et al., 2011).

Figure 6-2: Schematic Stratigraphic Diagram of the Little Eva Deposit Area

Approximately 1,740 Ma, deposition of the Mount Isa eastern succession was terminated by a period of

significant extension referred to as the Wonga Event. The Wonga Event was accompanied by dominantly

felsic extrusive and intrusive magmatism (Greenwood & Dhnaram, 2013). Sedimentation resumed following

the Wonga Event, with deposition of the Knapdale quartzite (feldspathic and micaceous sandstone and

quartzite) at 1,728±5 Ma (Greenwood & Dhnaram, 2013; Betts et al., 2012). Additional sedimentation

occurred with deposition of material that would become the Mount Roseby Schist, the Dugald River Shale

Member, (host to the Ag-Pb-Zn deposit of the same name), and the overlying Lady Clayre dolomite (host to

the Lady Clayre Cu-Au deposit), which has been dated at 1691±7Ma (Carson et al., 2011).

Sedimentation ended with the onset of the Isan Orogeny (approx. 1,600–1,510 Ma), which in its waning

stages was accompanied by widespread emplacement of potassium-rich “A-type” granites. Williams and

Naruku batholiths (approx. 1,550–1,500 Ma) are exposed east of the Project area (Malakoff granite). IOCG

mineralisation has a close temporal relationship with granite formation, and it has been proposed that

mineralising fluids were generated though magma mixing and/or fractionation.

Sedimentation was reinitiated during the Cambrian, with deposition of fine- to medium-grained sandstones

and limestone in basin grabens, including the Landsborough Graben located directly east of the Little Eva

deposit.

6.1.2Regional Deformation

Deformation of Proterozoic units within the Mary Kathleen domain resulted from the approximately 1,600–

1,510 Ma Isan Orogeny. On a regional scale, the orogeny can be divided into three broad stages characterised

by different principal stress directions and subsequent deformation responses. The Early Isan Orogeny (D1,

approximately 1,600–1,570 Ma) was accompanied by north-south to northwest- southeast compression,

which led to the formation of east-west trending folds and related axial plane cleavages. The Middle Isan

Orogeny (D2, approximately 1,570–1,525 Ma) involved east-west compression, resulting in the development

of north-south striking folds and foliation, ubiquitous in the Mary Kathleen domain. The Late Isan Orogeny

(D3, approximately 1,525–1,500 Ma) represented a transition to dominantly brittle deformation, with the

development of wrench-style faulting.

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

6.2Project Geology

The Project area straddles the northern part of a north-south striking corridor up to 10 km wide and 80 km

long, bounded to the east by the regionally significant Rose Bee Fault, and to the west by the Coolullah Fault,

which is also the eastern bounding fault of the Phanerozoic Landsborough Graben. These faults terminate

into the regional scale Fountain Range and Quamby faults, which continue south to intersect the Mary

Kathleen domain’s eastern margin (Figure 6-3 and Figure 6-4).

The Project area predominantly consists of variably metamorphosed sedimentary and igneous rocks of

Proterozoic age that typically outcrop with limited residual regolith cover. Regolith cover tends to thicken

east of the Rose Bee Fault and a thick sequence of Phanerozoic sediments overlies Proterozoic rock to the

west of the Coolullah Fault in the Landsborough Graben. The graben contains Cambrian limestone and

sandstone, mostly covered by Mesozoic and Cainozoic sediments.

Amphibolite facies schists of the Boomarra Metamorphic Belt are the oldest rocks within the area, outcrop

east of the Rose Bee Fault (Figure 6-3), and are unconformably overlain by metamorphosed fine-grained

sediments and intercalated volcanic rocks of the Corella Formation. The Little Eva copper-gold deposit is

hosted by intermediate to mafic composition volcanic rocks within the Corella Formation, similar to rocks

situated further to the south-east that have been dated, as coeval to the Wonga Suite intrusions

(approximately 1,740 Ma).

The Knapdale Quartzite is a metamorphosed sequence of massive siliciclastics forming a prominent, 12-km

long hill on the western side of the Project area, referred to as the Knapdale Range. The range is interpreted

as a nappe structure, with east-directed thrust faulting juxtaposing older siliciclastics over younger Mount

Roseby Schist (Roseby Schist).

The Roseby Schist, consisting of fine-grained, grey muscovite-quartz-biotite ± scapolite schists interbedded

with carbonate-rich layers, has been structurally juxtaposed against the Corella Formation by major faults.

The Roseby Schist within the Project area is overturned and contains distinctive scapolite porphyroblast-rich

units and is also distinguished by a lack of Wonga Suite felsic intrusions.

Figure 6-4: Project Area Geology with Outline of Project Tenure and Major Deposits

Overlying the Roseby Schist is the Dugald River shale member (carbonaceous zinc-rich slates), which hosts

the Dugald River zinc-lead-silver deposit of 63 Mt at 12.5% Zn, 1.9% Pb, and 31 g/t Ag. The Dugald River

deposit is localised along the highly deformed and faulted eastern margin of the Knapdale Range. On the

western side of the Knapdale Range, similar zinc-rich shales occur in the Coocerina Formation, which is also

overlain by dolomites, and therefore is likely a structural repetition of the Dugald River deposit host

stratigraphy.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

37

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

Dating indicates maximum ages for the Roseby Schist and the Dugald River Shale Member at approximately

1,686 Ma. The units have temporal equivalents (1,690–1,645 Ma) throughout the Mount Isa Inlier, which are

host to many of the region’s significant deposits, including Mount Isa, Hilton, Cannington, Lady Annie, Lady

Loretta, Osborne, and Mount Elliot.

The Neoproterozoic (approx. 1,500 Ma) Quamby Conglomerate forms a ridge in the southern part of the

Project area. Comprising polymictic conglomerate and medium- to coarse-grained sandstone, the Quamby

rocks are relatively undeformed, generally flat-lying with broad open folds. The conglomerate unconformably

overlies Corella Formation rocks in a small graben developed along the Rose Bee Fault during late Isan

Orogeny wrench-fault reactivation. The conglomerate hosts gold mineralisation that was initially mined by

prospectors in the 1920s, and then later in the 1990s.

The Rose Bee Fault is a prominent topographic feature forming linear ridges where it is pervasively silicified

and quartz veined. Locally, the silicification overprints copper mineralisation and may have developed during

the Phanerozoic reactivation of the fault.

6.2.1Little Eva Deposit Geology

The Little Eva deposit is currently the major example of hydrothermal IOCG mineralisation and is the largest

single copper deposit within the Eva Copper Project area. Little Eva is a close analogue of the Ernest Henry

deposit. Indicated and Inferred resources are 207 Mt grading 0.33% Cu and 0.06 g/t Au at a 0.14% Cu cut-off

grade. Gold is strongly correlated with copper and is recovered in the copper concentrate. The deposit is 1.4

km in length and between 20 m to 370 m wide with mineralisation extending from surface to the limits of

drilling at 350 m vertical depth below surface (165 mRL) (Figure 6-5 and Figure 6-6). The deposit is sub-

cropping on a flat plain with thin and variable (<3 m) in-situ soil and alluvium cover. Fresh rock is overlain by

a 5 m to 25 m thickness of weathered rock. Copper occurs as primary sulphide minerals in fresh rock, and as

secondary oxide minerals within the weathered zone.

Mineralisation is hosted by a large body of faulted subvolcanic porphyritic and amygdaloidal intermediate

rock that displays pervasive sodium and potassium feldspar, hematite, and magnetite metasomatic alteration

assemblages. Intermediate volcanic rocks on the western margin of the deposit are cut by felsic intrusions

that are also mineralised. Most of the mineralisation is structurally controlled within breccias, fracture fill and

veinlet stockworks. Chalcopyrite is the dominant copper mineral with lesser amounts of bornite.

Mineralisation is coarse and readily recovered through flotation concentration.

The igneous rocks hosting the Little Eva deposit occur within intercalated folded calc-silicate, marble,

quartzite, and biotite-scapolite schists. The feldspar-phyric and amygdaloidal intermediate rocks are

presumed to be volcanic flows, but probably include some subvolcanic sills as documented at Ernest Henry.

In the northern part of the deposit the volcanic rocks are interpreted to be striking north and dipping to the

east at approximately 60 to 70 degrees, while the mineralisation appears to have a moderately west-dipping

(45 to 65 degree) ladder-like grade distribution. In the central part of the deposit the volcanic stratigraphy is

sub-vertical to westerly dipping, with dips shallowing to the south (Figure 6-6) The intrusive rocks are

dominantly mafic to intermediate in composition, fine- to medium-grained with feldspar-phyric and

amygdaloidal textures. There is a minor porphyritic felsic intrusion along the western margin of the deposit.

In plan, the intrusive rock package has a lenticular shape, imbricated by mineralised breccias and post-

mineral faulting, and is enclosed by metasedimentary rocks. The western contact between igneous rocks and

metasediments is, in part, highly strained and fractured. Copper mineralisation is rare within the

metasediments.

Folding and extensive cross-faulting have resulted in a complex array of fracturing, crackle brecciation, and

veining, particularly within the more competent rocks associated with copper-gold mineralisation. Late, post-

mineralisation, strong shearing, and fracturing occurs parallel to the footwall contact against calc-silicate

rocks, and it is interpreted that more strain took place in the less competent rocks.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

38

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

Copper-gold mineralisation is high-grade but relatively narrow in the north and has progressively moderating

grades associated with greater width in the southern half of the deposit. Higher-grade zones in the north

occur in stacked zones of breccia, veining, and fracturing. Intervening zones are lower grade with

disseminated and veinlet-hosted mineralisation (Figure 6-7). The breccia zones typically dip west at 45 to 65

degrees, with north-northeast strikes. The breccias occasionally display multiple re-brecciation. Lower-grade

mineralisation in the south is more evenly distributed in fractures, veinlets, and disseminations. Low-grade

mineralisation averages 0.1% Cu to 0.3% Cu over lengths of 25 m to 150 m, whereas breccia zones are in the

order 0.8% Cu and 0.12 g/t Au over widths of 15 m and display gradational contacts.

The mineralised intermediate rock is variably and pervasively altered by multiple stages of alteration. Initial

alteration assemblages of amphibole, magnetite, and biotite (dark grey coloured) are overprinted by

assemblages comprising albite, haematite, magnetite, and carbonate ± chalcopyrite (red coloured).

The mineralisation is open beyond the extents of drilling: the northern tapered high-grade zone is terminated

or offset by faulting or plunges steeply to the north; while the southern extent is poorly constrained by

drilling, with higher-grade mineralisation appearing to plunge to the south.

The sulphide mineralisation is generally coarsely crystalline, and metallurgical tests have demonstrated

recoveries greater than 95% for copper. No deleterious elements were present in the trial flotation

concentrates. The deposit is generally low in sulphur and concentrations of pyrite greater than chalcopyrite

are relatively rare. Many of the drill holes average less than 0.8% sulphur.

A shallow 15m to 25m thick oxidation profile, a result of weathering, contains goethite-haematite with minor

malachite, chrysocolla, covellite, azurite, neotocite, and cuprite. The weathering profile indicates a “dry”

oxidation, as there is no leached zone and no supergene zone. There is a thin transition zone where

predominantly oxide copper changes over to predominantly sulphide copper over 1 m to 2 m. Chalcopyrite

can occur locally at surface. Zones of strong shearing and fracturing locally exhibit deeper oxidation.

6.2.2Turkey Creek

The Turkey Creek deposit is located 1.5 km east of the Little Eva deposit. The sulphide resources in the

Indicated and inferred categories are 34 Mt grading 0.42% Cu. Mineralisation at Turkey Creek is very low in

gold. The deposit is sub-cropping in a relatively flat to gently undulating area with thin (<0.5 m) in-situ soils

and alluvium cover. Fresh rock is overlain by a 25-m to 90-m thickness of weathering and oxide

mineralisation. Copper occurs as primary sulphides in fresh rock and as secondary oxide copper minerals

dominated by copper silicates (chrysocolla, hydrobiotite) and minor malachite within the weathered zone.

The deposit extends over 1.8 km in length with mineralisation extending from surface, to drilled depths of

150 m vertically below surface (Figure 6-8 and Figure 6-9), with a simple tabular geometry that displays

excellent continuity along strike and down-dip. True widths vary from 10 m to 30 m at the southern end, to

30 m to 50 m at the northern end. The main part of the deposit strikes north and dips 60 degrees to the east.

At the northern end, the mineralisation and host stratigraphy are folded sharply eastwards into a curved

synform which plunges steeply south. The northern zone is slightly offset by faulting from the main southern

zone.

The tabular deposit has an upper and lower zone of stronger copper mineralisation with a more sporadically

mineralised central zone. Primary copper mineralisation comprises finely disseminated chalcocite, with

subordinate bornite and chalcopyrite, that are disseminated and also occur within minor carbonate veinlets.

Copper sulphide minerals in the upper zone are dominated by chalcopyrite, and in the lower zone by

chalcocite and bornite. Gangue minerals primarily consist of quartz, calcite, scapolite, white mica, and minor

biotite.

The sulphide mineralisation is stratabound and hosted within a sequence of interbedded metasediments

(biotite schists, biotite scapolite schists, and carbonate-rich rocks or marble) The host rocks are variably

altered to carbonate and albite-haematite assemblages.

A consistent 20-m to 30-m thickness of weathering with oxide mineralisation blankets the southern zone. It

includes a zone of complete oxidation, and a thin transition zone with minor secondary and remnant primary

copper sulphides. Copper oxide mineralisation comprises minor malachite, rare occurrences of azurite, and

native copper, with most of the native copper thought to be associated with hydrobiotite similar to the

Blackard deposit. The transition zone is dominated by malachite, minor degraded chalcopyrite, chalcocite,

and rare native copper.

6.2.3Native Copper deposits

The Native Copper deposits within the Eva Copper Project include the Blackard, Legend, Great Southern and

Scanlan, characterised by the deep weathering profiles, which has resulted in extensive modification of the

host rock and localised remobilisation of copper. The deposits lie along the Roseby Copper Horizon and 

located from 5 km and 17 km south of the Eva deposit. The deposits are geologically very similar and

therefore are described together.

An additional 250 RC and DDs were completed on the Blackard, Legend and Great Southern deposits over

2024/2025, and extensive metallurgical testing was carried out on Blackard and Scanlan samples which has

defined metallurgical recoveries for the mineralogical zones within the deposits. Indicated and Inferred

resources for the Blackard deposit are 150 Mt grading 0.46% Cu. Indicated and Inferred resources for the

0.41% Cu.

The Native Copper deposits are hosted by the Mount Roseby Schist, which comprises intercalated marls and

carbonaceous sediments that represent a shallow marine to lagoonal depositional environment. The unit has

been metamorphosed to calc-silicates, and variable scapolite, biotite and/or muscovite schists that have

undergone polyphase deformation. The most significant folding event forming northerly-trending folds, likely

coinciding with peak amphibolite grade metamorphism. Fold geometry has been inferred from data collected

from diamond drill core and field mapping, and has been variably described as isoclinal, through tight to

open, depending upon location, but primary layering cannot be determined from RC chips and is only rarely

visible in drill core, making interpretation at the deposit scale difficult. The Scanlan through to Blackard-

Legend deposits form a 7 km long trend of mineralisation that appears to follow stratigraphy as it curves

around the east side of the Knapdale Quartzite (Figure 6-4).

The Blackard deposit morphology is a function of folded stratigraphy and/or faulting having a strike length of

3.5 km and a maximum plan width of 350 m (Figure 6-10 and Figure 6-11). The stratigraphic width of the

deposit is only 60 m to 90 m, but a series of parasitic folds and/or fault repetitions results in a much wider

deposit. Fault movement along axial planes may have resulted in rootless folds. The southern area of the

deposit is relatively narrow, steeply dipping to the west, and northerly trending. The deposit width and depth

extent increases to the north, with a gradual shallowing of the westerly- dipping mineralisation (45 degrees)

and a flattening of mineralisation to the east. It is, however, difficult to constrain the mineralised rock within

a symmetrical fold pattern and the slight variations in strike orientation of higher-grade zones in plan suggest

the possibility of an east-west stacking of mineralisation along possible north-south (~010o N) faults. To the

north, the deposit narrows to a moderately-dipping 50 m to 60 m thick band that gradually steepens and

thins northwards.

Mining and processing of Blackard and Scanlan deposits will be affected by the deep weathering profiles,

which has resulted in extensive modification of the host rock and localised remobilisation of copper. Much of

the carbonate has been leached from the upper parts of the deposits creating voids between less soluble or

insoluble mineral grains and reducing the mass of the rock (Figure 6-12). Copper released by oxidation of

sulphide minerals has mostly formed native copper particles many of which are very fine-grained. Some of

the copper occurs as ultra-fine particles (<10 µm) within altered biotite (termed hydrobiotite) which is

unrecoverable with any known commercial processing methods. Four zones defined by weathering and

copper speciation have been determined for the deposits, and extensive testing has determined probable

metallurgical recoveries for each zone. From upper to lower, the zones are:

•Oxide Zone. The deposits are capped by a weathered, ferruginous zone that is typically 20 m to 30 m

thick and has a sharp contact with the next underlying zone. In some areas of the Oxide Zone almost

all copper has been leached but other areas have significant copper grades, with copper occurring as

malachite, azurite, hydrobiotite, and Fe-Mn-Cu mineraloids known as neotocite. Testing suggests

copper in this zone it is not economically extractable.

•Native Copper Zone. The Native Copper Zone is defined by the presence of native copper with lesser

cuprite, copper-bearing hydrobiotite, and chalcocite. Leaching of carbonates has reduced the mass

and created a very soft rock. The Native Copper Zone has a variable thickness, reaching a maximum of

120 m. Extensive testing has defined a viable process for extracting a significant percentage of the

native and sulphide copper.

•Transition Zone. A relatively narrow zone ranging from 1 m to 15 m in thickness that marks the

transition from the native Copper Zone to the Copper Sulphide Zone and carries mineral phases of

both adjacent zones. Copper grades tend to be high due to the presence of supergene chalcocite. The

base of this zone is defined by the “top of fresh rock” (TOFR in Figure 6-11).

•Sulphide Zone. Defined by unweathered (fresh) rock with copper sulphide species of bornite,

chalcocite, chalcopyrite, and pyrite, this zone contains sulphide disseminations and clots which are

strongly associated with carbonate veinlets. Metallurgical recoveries from this zone are favourable.

Silver is locally present but was not estimated.

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

The Scanlan deposit has a strike length of 1,500 m and a maximum width in plan of 500 m (Figure 6-13). In

the southern half, the deposit is composed of a 10 m to 50 m thick horizon, with the thicker part folded into a

“V” shaped synform on the eastern side, and the thinner part forming a nearly flat antiform to the east,

resembling an extended square root symbol in section, with a 320 degree, northwesterly trend (Figure 6-14).

The east dipping part of the synform is not present in the northern part of the deposit, eroded or possibly

faulted off, and the mineralisation swings to a 12 degrees northerly trend, becoming a steeply west-, then

east-dipping panel of mineralisation, and gradually thinning to uneconomic widths.

There are two possibilities for the origin of mineralisation in the copper-only deposits. The first ascribes a

hypogene hydrothermal source that occurred during the waning stages of the Isan Orogeny due to features

that include orientation of sulphide minerals along foliation planes and/or brittle fractures or pre-existing

carbonate veins, as well as sulphide-phased overprinting metamorphic minerals. Timing of this mineralizing

event would closely correspond with the copper-gold deposits in the district. The second hypothesis for the

mineralisation is that the deposits represent typical stratiform copper deposits that form from metalliferous

basin brines, post-deposition but pre-orogeny. Stratiform-type copper deposits are typically formed by redox

reactions within marine sediments with moderate to high sulphur contents.

These deposits commonly display an inwards pyrite-chalcopyrite-bornite-chalcocite-native copper zonation

as the redox reactions progressively use up the available sulphur; a zonation that may be inferred based on

the deeper, down-dip parts of the Blackard deposit. Additionally, the lower sulphide zones within the copper-

only deposits have virtually no gold but relatively high silver contents, locally, with Cu:Ag ratios typical of

many occurrences of stratiform copper mineralisation. A stratiform origin may also explain the similar

stratigraphic position of all the copper-only deposits (with the exception of Turkey Creek) around the Dugald

River Shale and Knapdale Quartzite units. Many of the sulphide textures ascribed to the hypogene origin are

compatible with metamorphism of earlier formed sulphide deposits within carbonaceous rocks, where

sulphides and some carbonate would be partially remobilised and likely to recrystalise after formation of the

metamorphic silicate minerals. The extensive leaching of carbonate from the upper parts of these deposits

indicates the possibility of weathering of an overlying high-sulphide zone (pyrite-chalcopyrite) to produce the

necessary acid. The origin of the deposits is inconsequential to grades and mining but may have some

significance for future exploration.

6.2.4Lady Clayre

Lady Clayre is located approximately 19 km south of Little Eva and is the third largest copper-gold deposit

within the Project area. The deposit contains Indicated resources of 5.1 Mt grading 0.38% Cu and 0.17 g/t Au,

plus an additional 1.1 Mt grading 0.37% Cu and 0.09 g/t Au in the Inferred category. The deposit has been

drilled to a vertical depth of 200 m and is open at depth.

The deposit is sub-cropping with thin (<0.5 m) in-situ soil cover. Fresh rock is covered by a thin, 15 m to 25 m,

weathered zone of oxide mineralisation. Copper occurs as primary sulphides in fresh rock and as secondary

oxide minerals within the weathered zone.

Mapping and surface sampling have defined multiple zones of surface mineralisation. Zones A and F (Figure

6-15 and Figure 6-16) have been the focus of drilling, which has delineated a series of moderate to steep

dipping planar mineralised bodies. Zone A mineralisation strikes north-northwest, dips approximately 80

degrees to the west, and extends along strike for 700 m. Zone F mineralisation strikes north-east, dips 70 to

75 degrees to the west, and extends along strike for a total of 480 m.

Lady Clayre is situated in a structurally complex area, with evidence for a number of ductile and brittle

deformation events. The deposit is located close to the junction of two regional faults near the southern

termination of the Knapdale Quartzite. Copper-gold mineralisation is structurally controlled, associated with

faulting/shearing sub-parallel to bedding in a folded sequence of shale, metasiltstone, schist, and dolomite.

The metasedimentary package is intruded by intensely altered, narrow (0.5 m to 5 m) sheets of mafic

intrusive. Alteration mineral assemblages associated with mineralisation are dominated by carbonate,

feldspar, quartz, and tremolite.

The main sulphide ore mineral is chalcopyrite, often associated with lesser pyrite and/or pyrrhotite.

Molybdenite is also noted. Mineralisation is coarse-grained, occurring in sulphide or carbonate- sulphide vein

arrays and as sulphide disseminations in intensely altered rocks. Breccia infill can also be locally significant.

The dominant copper mineral in the oxide zone is malachite, with limonite and goethite.

Mineralisation remains open along strike and down dip in Zones A and F, while a series of additional areas of

surface mineralisation remain untested by drilling.

6.2.5Ivy Ann

Ivy Ann is a modest sized copper-gold deposit located approximately 35 km south-southeast of Little Eva. The

Indicated Resource is estimated at 5.2 Mt at 0.34% Cu and 0.09 g/t Au at a 0.17% Cu cut-off grade, there is a

further 1.2Mt @ 0.33% Cu and 0.11g/t Au classified as inferred. The deposit has been drilled to a vertical

depth of 125 m and is open at depth. Ivy Ann lies to the east of, and adjacent to, the broad Quamby Fault

Zone, which is manifest as a 1-km wide high-strain zone with evidence for dextral displacement (Figure 6-17).

The deposit is sub-cropping in a relatively flat to gently undulating area with thin (<0.5 m) in- situ soils and

transported alluvium cover. There is a 15-m to 30-m-thick weathered zone of oxide mineralisation on top of

the deposit.

The deposit is a lenticular shaped body striking north-northeast with numerous lenses hosted within steeply

east-dipping structures, striking north-south to north-northeasterly. Mineralisation has been defined in two

separate deposits, Ivy Ann and Ivy Ann North. The overall mineralisation extends over a strike length of 3 km.

The main Ivy Ann deposit is defined over a strike length of 630 m, with a width of 20 to 130 m, and a steep

easterly dip; it’s a wedge-shaped body striking north-south subparallel to the host lithologies. The Ivy Ann

North deposit is defined over a 420-m strike length with a width of 10 to 30 m and is vertical or dips steeply

to the east.

The copper-gold mineralisation is fault hosted and associated with breccias and networks of veins and micro-

veinlets within a folded sequence of metamorphosed sediments (psammite) and amphibolite. Fold axes are

north-south with interpreted moderate southward plunges (>45 degrees). Main sulphide ore minerals are

chalcopyrite with lesser pyrite and pyrrhotite. Sulphide grain size is relatively coarse.

Alteration mineral assemblages associated with the copper mineralisation are dominated by albite, quartz,

hematite, biotite, and magnetite. Breccias are best developed in albite-quartz-hematite altered rocks, which

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

sit in the hinge of a tight southward-plunging antiform. The metasediments, fault zones, and fold axes are cut

by a swarm of thin (<5 m) pegmatite dykes.

An irregular 15-m to 30-m thick zone of weathering with oxide mineralisation blankets the deposit. The

dominant copper oxide mineral is malachite, present with goethite and hematite, and lesser amounts of

chrysocolla, tenorite, and cuprite. The zone is poorly constrained by current drilling.

6.2.6Bedford

Bedford is a modest sized copper-gold deposit located 6 km southeast of the Little Eva deposit. The Indicated

Resource is estimated at 3.3 Mt at 0.55% Cu and 0.15 g/t Au at a 0.17% Cu cut-off grade, with a further 1.0Mt

@ 0.38% Cu and 0.12g/t Au in inferred Resource. The deposit has been drilled to a vertical depth of 140 m

and is open at depth. Bedford lies to the east of the Rose Bee Fault.

The deposit is sub-cropping in a relatively flat to gently undulating area with thin (<0.5 m) soils and limited

alluvium cover. The deposit is overlain by a 20-m to 30-m-thick weathered zone of oxide mineralisation.

The deposit is hosted within a steeply west-dipping shear zone striking north to north-northeast (Figure 6-18

and Figure 6-19). The shear zone varies from 50 m to 120 m wide with internal arrays of mineralised

structures and splays. Mineralisation has been defined in two separate zones, Bedford North, and Bedford

South, within a continuous structure. The deposit extends over a strike length of 2.5 km. The northern zone is

1.15 km, and the southern zone is 850 m long. Within the shear zone individual mineralised structures

associated with mineralisation (>0.3% Cu) true widths ranging from 5 m to 12 m. Mineralisation remains

open to north and south along strike, down dip, and between the two zones.

Host rocks are a north to north-northeast-striking, moderately to steeply west-dipping interlayered sequence

of amphibolite and biotite schist underlain by psammite and intruded concordantly by narrow planar granite

and pegmatite dykes or sills. In Bedford South, mineralised structures are interpreted to be bedding or

foliation parallel. In Bedford North, the main mineralised structures are interpreted to trend north-south,

stepping across the north-northeast-striking stratigraphy, with the development of a set of secondary north-

northeast linking structures along bedding or foliation. An irregular, 20-m to 30-m-thick zone of weathering

with oxide mineralisation blankets the deposit. Although the base of oxidation is well defined, variability of

copper mineral species within the weathering profile is not well understood.

Magnetite-biotite alteration assemblages with quartz veining are concentrated in the ore zones, above a

strongly feldspar-hematite altered footwall.

The dominant ore mineral is coarse-grained chalcopyrite (with minor magnetite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, and gold),

which occurs within quartz veins, breccia fill, and disseminations within the host shear zone.

6.3Deposit Types

Section 229.601(b)(96) (6) (i‐iii)

The copper-gold deposits within the Project are of the IOCG style of hydrothermal mineralisation. Significant

examples of Australian IOCG deposits include Olympic Dam and Prominent Hill in South Australia and Ernest

Henry in Queensland, which is located some 60 km from Little Eva.

Mineral deposits occurring within IOCG systems are associated with relatively high temperature, iron- rich

hydrothermal alteration (typically hematite or magnetite), which is both spatially and temporally related to

felsic plutons. Mineralisation can manifest in a variety of styles including vein networks, breccias,

disseminations, and replacements. Deposits are typically localised in dilation zones of structures active during

pluton emplacement and cooling.

Within the Eastern Mount Isa Inlier, deposits are interpreted to have formed during the waning stages of the

Isan Orogeny (1,530–1,495 Ma), in association with intrusion of the Williams-Naraku batholith suites. This is

coincident with wrench reactivation of earlier large, crustal-scale faults, which saw dextral displacement on

north-northwest trending transfer faults, and some regional north-south structures, suggesting northwest-

southeast compression.

In the Project area, deposits fit into two categories: copper-gold, and copper-only. The copper-only deposits

are a distinct, metasediment-hosted stratabound mineralisation style in the region, unique to the Roseby

Schist. The copper-gold deposits are more typical of the IOCG deposits in the Eastern Mount Isa Inlier. The

copper-gold deposits occur within structural-lithological settings that facilitate dilational sites during

deformation, typically within igneous rocks or intercalated metamorphosed igneous and sedimentary rocks

peripheral to Roseby Schist. The copper-only deposits are interpreted from the available data to be gold-poor

end members of the IOCG mineralizing event prevalent throughout the district (varying primarily due to host

rock controls) an alternative hypothesis is that they are stratiform deposits related to an earlier mineralising

event during basin dewatering.

6.3.1Copper-Gold Deposits

Four copper-gold deposits are scheduled for mining: Little Eva, Lady Clayre, Ivy Ann, and Bedford (which

contains two separate zones, Bedford North, and South).

Little Eva, the largest copper deposit within the Project, is considered an IOCG type, and is a close analogue

of the Ernest Henry deposit. The deposit contains gold, which has a strong correlation with copper, and is

recovered in the copper concentrate. The deposit is hosted by a large body of faulted, porphyritic, and

amygdaloidal intermediate rock, which likely represents volcanic flows, and possibly sub-volcanic intrusive

rocks. All rocks display pervasive sodium and potassium feldspar, hematite, and magnetite-bearing

metasomatic alteration assemblages. The mineralisation is structurally controlled within breccia and veinlet

stockworks. Chalcopyrite is the dominant copper mineral.

Mineralisation is generally coarse-grained, and readily recovered through flotation concentration.

Bedford, Lady Clayre, and Ivy Ann have a similar metal association to Little Eva. These are smaller shear

zone-, fault-, and vein-hosted deposits within thinly intercalated metasedimentary and igneous rocks. Gold

grades within these deposits are typically higher than at Little Eva.

All the deposits are sub-cropping, covered by a relatively shallow (approximately 25 m) oxidised cap.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

Technical Report Summary of the

Eva Copper Project, North West Queensland, Australia

6.3.2Copper-Only Deposits

There are three copper-only deposits which are planned for mining: Turkey Creek, Blackard, and Scanlan.

Legend and Great Southern are new resource additions to the project however haven't been included in the

mine plan yet. Other copper-only type deposits within the Project tenures currently excluded from the mine

plan, as they are currently insufficiently explored, are:  Longamundi, Caroline, and Charlie Brown. The

copper-only deposits contain trace amounts of gold locally, but generally not in economic quantities as with

the copper-gold deposits. Low tenor silver may be present in the sulphide zones, although data is minimal.

The mineralisation appears to be stratabound, if not stratiform, and in the case of Blackard and Scanlan has

been deformed by folding. Except for Turkey Creek, these deposits are distributed around the eastern margin

of the Knapdale Range over a strike length of 16 km and hosted within a sequence of metamorphosed

calcareous sediments. The deposits are not associated with magnetite enrichment and exhibit some

characteristics of stratiform-copper type deposits. Primary sulphide mineralisation is dominated by bornite,

with minor chalcopyrite and chalcocite, however the deposits have been modified by supergene processes

and extensive leaching of carbonate, that has produced four distinct mineralogical zones as listed below:

•The oxide zone begins at surface, and extends to depths of 15 m to 25 m. The zone is defined by

oxidation of copper and iron bearing minerals to malachite, limonite, goethite, and copper bearing Fe-

Mn mineraloids (neotocite).

•The copper zone occurs below the oxide zone, and can extend to depths of 120 m. The copper zone

contains a significant amount of native or metallic copper, which can account for up to 65% of the

contained copper. Significant copper also occurs in the lattice of altered biotite referred to as

hydrobiotite, which is not recoverable by flotation. Other copper minerals include cuprite, chalcocite

and residual bornite. Carbonate is extensively leached. Almost complete leaching of carbonate has

produced very friable rock.

•The transition zone is a zone that transitions between the copper and sulphide zones. This zone

contains minor secondary and remnant primary copper sulphides (chalcocite, cuprite, tenorite,

bornite, and chalcopyrite), and may contain some metallic copper.

•The sulphide zone, is primary mineralisation in fresh rock containing copper as disseminated bornite,

chalcocite and chalcopyrite.

The copper-only mineralisation is associated with a specific stratigraphic interval that has ubiquitous low-

tenor copper anomalism wherever it is exposed or intersected by drilling and displays complex folding and

fault patterns. Fold axes are predominantly north-northwest-trending but can have variable plunges. At

Blackard and Scanlan, mineralisation occurs within shallow-plunging anticlines, with steeply-dipping to locally

overturned western limbs, and flatter, east-dipping limbs.

QP’s Opinion: In the QP’s opinion, the geological interpretations and deposit models used in this TRS provide

a sound and defensible basis for Mineral Resource estimation. The styles of mineralisation are well

understood and consistent with known regional analogues.

7Exploration

Section 229.601(b)(96) (7) (i‐vi)

Early exploration in the area that contributed significantly to the database for this Project included that

completed by Ausminda Pty. Ltd., CRAE, and Pasminco, with later exploration by Altona, prior to Project

acquisition by CMMC.

Extensive geophysical surveying, primarily induced polarisation (IP) over the copper deposit areas, and

Electromagnetic (EM) or Controlled Source Audio-Frequency Magnetotellurics ("CSAMT") over the Dugald

River zinc deposit host rocks, as well as gravity and magnetic surveys, were undertaken in the area by CRAE.

All the Project deposits subcrop and were initially identified by surface sampling and mapping. The most

valuable result from the geophysical work was the identification aided definition of the copper-only deposits,

the most valuable were the EM and gravity surveys. Gravity lows are registered over the copper-only

deposits due to deep weathering, while the metallic copper in the supergene zones were mapped as EM

anomalies. Airborne magnetic surveys over the Project area are available from various government agencies.

Satellite hyperspectral surveys have also been used with some success by various companies in the area.

CRAE's bedrock and soil geochemical programmes outside the Roseby copper deposits were not systematic,

with minimal assessment of gold mineralisation, and left most of the surrounding area untested by

geochemical surveys. CRAE’s focus at the time was on the copper only (no gold containing) deposits due to

their relatively high grades and the Little Eva and Lady Clayre areas were of secondary exploration interest.

The Little Eva copper-gold prospect was drilled by CRAE to an Inferred resource status, but the gold content

was not assessed. The Lady Clayre prospect was also drilled by CRAE at the time, but no resource estimate

was completed. Metallurgical sampling and testing were conducted at Blackard and Lady Clayre, but not at

Little Eva.

Following the acquisition of the Project from CRAE by Pasminco/Zinifex, drilling, and sampling programmes

focused primarily on the Lady Clayre copper-gold sulphide prospect, Caroline (Lady Clayre East), and the

copper-gold potential of the Mount Rose Bee Fault area. This drilling was insufficient to define a formal

resource at either deposit. Pasminco also initiated a soil and rock sampling programme designed to examine

the Mount Rose Bee Fault and related splay faults. While this programme detected widespread but weak

copper-gold mineralisation, generally in close spatial relationship with copper and gold soil geochemical

anomalies, Pasminco divested the Roseby Copper Project before the exploration programme was completed.

Xstrata conducted exploration in the central Roseby area under the terms of an option and earn-in

agreement with Altona. Xstrata also completed deep drilling below the Little Eva, Blackard, Great Southern,

and Longamundi deposits demonstrating the presence of large mineralised systems. Xstrata also discovered a

mineralised system under cover at Cabbage Tree Creek some 3 km north of Little Eva. Xstrata has also

completed extensive geochemical, rock sampling, mapping, and geophysical surveys generating numerous

targets, some of which have been subject to initial drill testing with positive results.

Altona carried out systematic soil geochemistry work over much of the claim area, and this work was

continued by CMMC. This work has established numerous copper-in-soils targets within the Project tenure

and surrounding EPMs held by Harmony (Figure 7-1). Shallow drilling of these targets has established

numerous mineralised positions with opportunities to established new copper and gold mineral resources.

Figure 7-1: Surface Copper Anomalism with Defined Deposits and the Cameron Project Area Indicated

Exploration carried out by CMMPL in 2018 and 2019 included grade confirmation and metallurgical drilling in

the Little Eva, Turkey Creek, and Blackard deposits, in addition to exploration drilling on some targets in the

Project area. Additionally, exploration drilling was also completed on the prospective areas Quamby and

Matchbox, which are located in the Cameron area south of the Project  (Figure 7-1). Compilation of

geophysical surveys and inversion of historical IP geophysical data were completed, as were new surveys in a

few areas. Testing of aquifers for potential water sources near the proposed mine area was successfully

conducted in both 2018, 2019 and 2023.

7.1Drilling

Section 229.601(b)(96) (8) (i‐v)

The seven deposits in this report have relatively lengthy exploration histories, including multiple periods of

drilling implemented and managed primarily by several companies: CRAE, URL, Altona, CMMC and Harmony.

All drill data was collected to industry standards, and the procedures were well documented. Quality control

and data verification are discussed in following sections, and demonstrate that the data is reliable and

suitable for Mineral Resource estimations.

7.1.1Drill Hole Data Description

7.1.1.1Little Eva

A total of 121,498 m of drilling in 721 holes was completed at Little Eva. Of these, some 77% are RC (549

holes), and 23% are DD (165 holes). Holes were generally inclined at -55 to -60° or subvertical, drilled on

25-50 m spaced section lines, and 40 m along line spacing. Some areas are more densely drilled or include

holes aligned in alternative directions.

Diamond drilling was conducted for resource definition, metallurgical testwork sampling, geotechnical, and

twinning of RC holes for quality assurance/quality control ("QA/QC"). Diamond drill holes were commonly

drilled with shallow RC pre-collars. RC pre-collars were generally drilled until RC penetration limit was met -

commonly due to water inflow.

The drilling history for the Little Eva deposit is summarised in Table 7-1, and hole locations are shown in

Figure 7-1. The earliest recorded drilling at Little Eva was undertaken by CRAE in 1963 and consisted of a

single DD. Most drilling was conducted by three companies; CRAE (1963 to 1998), URL (2002 to 2009), Altona

(2011 to 2018), CMMC (2019-2022) and Harmony (2023+).

7.1.1.2Turkey Creek

A total of 19,261 m of drilling in 137 holes was completed at Turkey Creek. Of these, some 93% are RC (131

holes), and 5% are DDs (6 holes). Holes were typically inclined at -60° and drilled along 100 m spaced section

lines with 50 m spacing between drill holes. Diamond drilling was conducted for the primary purpose of

metallurgical testwork sampling and geotechnical data.

The drilling history is summarised in Table 7-2, and hole locations are shown in Figure 7-2. The earliest hole at

Turkey Creek area was a DD drilled by Carpentaria Exploration in 1963, but the location details of this hole

are uncertain, and the hole has been disregarded. The majority of drilling was conducted by Altona from

2012 to 2015, with minor infill drilling completed by CMMC in 2018/2019 and significant infill drilling by

Harmony in 2023.

RC drilling typically utilised face sampling hammers (5.5"), and DD provided either NQ or HQ core samples.

7.1.1.3Blackard

A total of 97,108m of drilling in 642 holes has been completed at the Blackard deposit. Components of the

drilling include 345 RC, 161 DD, and 17 PERC drill holes completed since 1991. While early RC drill holes were

relatively short and vertical, follow-up drilling was angled to keep drilling approximately perpendicular to

mineralisation as the deposit geometry was better understood. Drilling has been carried out relatively

systematically on 50 m spaced sections, with 50 m or more tightly spaced holes along the sections. Drill holes

are spaced much closer on alternating section lines (100 m spaced). A number of sections contain large step-

out holes that tested for down-dip extensions of the deposit. Diamond drilling was conducted for the primary

purpose of metallurgical test sampling.

The drilling history is summarised in Table 7-3, and hole locations are shown in Figure 7-3.

RC drilling typically utilised face sampling hammers (5.25", 5.5", or 6"), and DD mainly used HQ3 or NQ3 core

sizes. Early rotary air blast ("RAB") drilling was carried out, but these holes were not used for resource

estimation.

7.1.1.4Scanlan

Scanlan is a relatively near-surface deposit, and has been defined by a total of 173 drill holes for 18,979 m.

Drilling is predominately RC, with only 20 of the holes being core drilling. Drill holes are either vertical or

inclined, depending upon the interpreted dip of the mineralisation. Drilling has been carried out on

approximately 50 m spacing along 50 m spaced section lines, although alternating, or 100 m section lines,

have more drill holes. In general, drill holes are more widely spaced on the northern part of the deposit,

where the mineralisation is narrow and vertically oriented.

The drilling history is summarised in Table 7-4, and hole locations are shown Figure 7-4. CRAE drilled 5 RC

holes in 1990. URL carried out an RAB programme in 2003 as a precursor to resource- definition RC drilling

from 2004 to 2009. Although the RAB holes were not used in resource estimation they did provide additional

information on deposit morphology.

RC drilling typically utilised face sampling hammers (5.25", 5.5", or 6"), and DD mainly used HQ3 or NQ3 core

sizes.

7.1.1.5Bedford

A total of 12,240 m of drilling in 149 holes was completed at Bedford. Of these, some 68% are RC (102 holes),

30% are RAB (47 holes), and 3% are core (4 holes). RAB holes are vertical. RC and core holes were generally

inclined at around -60°, drilled on 25 m spacing along 25 m spaced section lines. Section line spacing

increases to 50 m and then to 100 m outside the main mineralised zones. Diamond drilling was primarily

conducted for metallurgical sampling.

The drilling history is summarised in Table 7-5, and hole locations are shown in Figure 7-5 and Figure 7-6.

CRAE drilled 5 RC holes in 1990. URL carried out an RAB programme in 2003 as a precursor to resource

definition RC drilling from 2004 to 2009.

RC drilling typically utilised face sampling hammers (5.25", 5.5", or 6"), and DD mainly used HQ3 or NQ3 core

sizes. RAB drilling accounts for some 13% of drilled metres but was not used for resource estimation.

7.1.1.6Ivy Ann

A total of 15,145 m of drilling in 153 drill holes was completed at Ivy Ann. Of these, some 53% are RC (81

holes), 46% are percussion (PERC) (70 holes) and 1% are DD (2 holes). Holes were generally inclined -50° to

-60°, generally drilled on 50 m spaced section lines, and 20 m to 50 m along line spacing. Section line spacing

increases to 100 m in Ivy Ann North.

The drilling history is summarised in Table 7-6, and hole locations are shown in Figure 7-7. Exploration on the

Ivy Ann prospect began in 1992. Note that Bruce Resources became PanAust in 1995.

7.1.1.7Lady Clayre

A total of 25,092 m of drilling in 145 holes was completed at Lady Clayre. Of these, some 79% are RC (114

holes), 20% are DD (29 holes) and 1% are PERC (2 holes). Holes were generally inclined -50° to -60°, generally

drilled on 50 m spaced section lines, and 20 m to 50 m along line spacing.

The drilling history is summarised in Table 7-7, and hole locations are shown in Figure 7-8. Exploration on the

Lady Clayre prospect began in 1978 with a single DD drilled by CRAE.

RC drilling typically used 5.25", 5.5", or 6" hammers, and DDs provided either HQ or NQ core samples.

A total of 21,171m of drilling in 127 holes was completed at Legend. Of these, some 59% are RC (74 holes),

7% are DD (8 holes), 22% are RC-DDT (29 holes) and 1% are air core ("AC") (13 holes). Holes were generally

inclined -50° to -60°, generally drilled on 50 m spaced section lines, and 20 m to 50 m along line spacing.

The drilling history is summarised in Table 10-7, and hole locations are shown in Figure 9-8. Exploration on

the Legend prospect began in 1978 with a single diamond hole drilled by CRAE.

7.1.2Drill Hole Collar Survey Control

7.1.2.1Little Eva

Collar coordinates for drill holes completed at Little Eva prior to 2002 were determined with reference to an

informal local grid established by CRAE. In 2002, URL resurveyed old hole collar positions at Little Eva using

Differential Global Positioning System ("DGPS") techniques; the work was completed by a survey contractor.

In a few cases, the original collar could not be located, and earlier survey determinations by the CRAE

surveyor in 1994 have been retained.

From mid-2003 through 2011, all survey work was undertaken by licensed surveyors using Trimble DGPS

equipment with a minimum accuracy of ±0.05 m. All data was collected in AGD84 coordinates. From late

2011, Altona completed DGPS surveys in house using a Hemisphere R320 OmniSTAR HP GPS receiver. The

system allows for real time horizontal accuracies of 10 cm to 15 cm.

All drilling by CMMC and Harmony have been surveyed using Differential GPS instruments.

Of the 721 holes drilled at Little Eva, six holes have no DGPS survey available, and the original, local grid-

based, or GPS coordinate, was converted to a GPS coordinate. Geographic transformations have been used

to convert original grid coordinates to GDA20 / MGA zone 54 coordinates.

7.1.2.2Turkey Creek

All holes drilled by Altona, comprising the vast majority of the drilling used in defining the Mineral Resource,

were surveyed with high resolution (±0.5 m) DGPS equipment. The two CRAE holes have low accuracy (±10

m).

7.1.2.3Blackard

Of the 642 drill holes used in the resource estimate, most were surveyed by DGPS (or traditional theodolite

surveys for 2 holes) with better than 0.1 m confidence. The other holes were located by field GPS with an

accuracy of between 3 and 10 m.

7.1.2.4Scanlan

All but six of the drill holes used for resource estimation were surveyed by DGPS with better than

0.1 m accuracy. Two holes were surveyed by field GPS with accuracy of between 3 and 10 m, and another

two holes have undetermined survey methods.

7.1.2.5Bedford

Apart from one hole, all RC holes drilled by URL have been located by DGPS by licensed surveyors using

Trimble DGPS equipment with a minimum accuracy of ±0.02 m. All data was collected in AGD84 coordinates.

The early CRAE holes (five) were initially located on local grids. Pasminco relocated the holes and recorded

GPS locations for them, with a lower accuracy (±10 m). All holes drilled by Altona were surveyed with high

resolution (±0.1 m) DGPS equipment.

Geographic transformations have been used to convert original grid coordinates to GDA20 / MGA zone 54

coordinates.

7.1.2.6Ivy Ann

Dominion established a local grid on the prospect: all drilling carried out by Dominion and PanAust is

referenced to this local grid. URL calculated a coordinate conversion based on the locations of two early drill

hole collars, and used this to transform the original local coordinates for holes drilled between 1992 and

1997 into GDA20 / MGA zone 54 coordinates.

Except for four holes drilled by URL in 2006, all drilling completed from 2003 to 2009 has been surveyed by

DGPS using Trimble DGPS equipment with a minimum accuracy of ±0.05 m. From 2011, Altona drill collars

were surveyed using a Hemisphere R320 OmniSTAR HP DGPS system with horizontal accuracy of ±0.015 m.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

Geographic transformations have been used to convert original grid coordinates to GDA20 / MGA zone 54

coordinates.

7.1.2.7Lady Clayre

All holes drilled by CRAE from 1992 to 1994 were relocated and surveyed using DGPS by a registered

surveyor in 1994. Holes drilled by CRAE, Pasminco, and URL from 1995 to 2002 were relocated where

possible and surveyed with DGPS by URL. Survey control protocols for URL and Altona holes are as for Little

Eva.

Geographic transformations have been used to convert original grid coordinates to GDA20 / MGA zone 54

coordinates.

7.1.3Downhole Surveys

7.1.3.1Little Eva

All drill holes have a collar inclination and azimuth measurement in the database. The levels of hole deviation

shown in Figure 7-1 are within expected ranges.

Downhole surveying of CRAE DDs LE006 and LE076 was carried out using Eastman single shot downhole

survey cameras. Survey shots were taken at approximately 40 m intervals. RC holes drilled by CRAE only have

collar orientations, the original DH survey data were unable to be sourced from Rio Tinto/CRAE.

Much of the RC and DD drilling completed by URL and Altona from 2002 to 2011 was surveyed with a variety

of instruments, including those manufactured by Eastman, Camteq, Ranger, and Reflex. Survey

measurements were typically taken at 40 m intervals where possible.

To overcome potential issues with the older, magnetic-based survey techniques caused by variable, and

sometimes considerable, concentrations of magnetite in the rocks, URL resurveyed all available open holes in

2005 and 2006, including those previously drilled by CRAE. A combination of a multi-shot downhole camera

and a downhole gyro instrument (for magnetically quiet and active areas, respectively) was used. Multi-shot

camera survey measurements are generally at 10 m intervals, and the gyro instrument surveys give semi-

continuous measurements at intervals of 1 m or less. Where a hole was not open to depth, the attitude of

the hole at 0 m was determined.

At the end of Altona’s 2011 programme, selected holes were resurveyed using a FlexIT GyroSmart tool with

readings at 5 m intervals.

From 2012 on, all Altona, CMMC and Harmony holes were monitored during drilling using a single or multi-

shot camera, typically with completion surveys using a GyroMax isGyro.

7.1.3.2Turkey Creek

All Altona and Harmony holes drilled in the Turkey Creek deposit were monitored during drilling using a

REFLEX EZ-TRAC camera. On completion of drilling, downhole surveys were conducted using a GyroMax

isGyro, overcoming any magnetic influences inherent in the EZ-TRAC survey.

7.1.3.3Blackard, Scanlan and Bedford

The majority of the RC and DD drilling completed by URL and Altona from 2002 to 2018 was surveyed with

downhole cameras (~69%) or gyro systems (25%), and 6% have collar orientations only. For URL and Altona

holes drilled between 2002 and present, the azimuth and inclination of the hole at the collar was measured

using a compass clinometer. For the earlier holes it is unclear whether these measurements were made by

survey instrument or by clinometer at the collar. All Harmony Holes have been surveyed using a downhole

Gyro tool.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

82

7.1.3.4Ivy Ann

RC and PERC drilling completed by Dominion and PanAust only have collar orientations, and all but two of

these holes are aligned along local grid directions (270° and 90°). The two DDs completed by PanAust have

downhole dip measurements, and the surface azimuths have been extrapolated down the hole. There is no

record of how these dip determinations were made.

URL and Altona used a variety of downhole camera systems to survey their drilling from 2003 to 2011.

Measurements were taken at approximately 50 m intervals. Two holes only have a collar survey. In addition,

URL resurveyed selected holes in 2009 and 2011 with detailed gyro surveys. In 2009, measurements were

taken at 20 m intervals, and this was reduced to 5 m in 2011. Gyro surveys were completed in 2012 on Ivy

Ann drill holes completed by Altona.

7.1.3.5Lady Clayre

CRAE holes drilled before 1996 only have a collar orientation. Starting in 1996, CRAE drill holes were

surveyed with a downhole instrument (Eastman camera), and have at least one such measurement.

All Pasminco holes were surveyed with a downhole instrument with readings at approximately 30 m

intervals, with at least one survey close to the surface, and one at the end of the hole.

URL used a variety of downhole cameras to survey their drilling from 2002 to 2011. Measurements were

taken at approximately 50 m intervals. Several holes only have a collar survey. In addition, in 2005 and 2009,

URL resurveyed selected holes with detailed multi-shot camera and gyro surveys.

All but one Altona drill hole was surveyed using a FlexIT GyroSmart tool, with readings at 5 m intervals.

7.1.3.6Legend and Great Southern

All downhole surveys have been conducted using the same methods as those employed for other deposits.

All holes drilled by Harmony have been surveyed using a continuous gyro survey at the end of each hole.

7.1.4Drill Hole Logging

7.1.4.1Little Eva

Original hard copy drill logs or typed drilling summaries prepared by CRAE geological staff for all CRAE drill

holes at Little Eva are retained in the Altona library. These are descriptive logs that were coded into the

Altona system and stored in the Altona drilling database.

CRAE logged its DDs on variable intervals determined by lithological changes in the core. RC holes were

logged on regular 1 m intervals. The early descriptive logging yielded up to two lithologies per interval,

together with grain size, texture, and colour, upon recording into the digital logging system. Alteration and

ore mineralogy were recorded as mineral species and abundance. Veining, mainly observed in core, is also

logged as mineral composition and abundance. Structural and geotechnical logging of DDs has been done

routinely from 1995 on, with orientations of veins and structures provided as dip and strike angles. The core

orientation method used by CRAE is not recorded.

URL prepared similar descriptive logs for its drilling between 2002 and 2005 that are also retained in the

Altona library. RC logging was done primarily on 1 m intervals, and data was captured from these logs into

the digital system in the same way as the CRAE data was captured, to provide lithology, alteration,

mineralisation, and veining logs. The DD logs produced in this period were logged on intervals based on

lithological changes, and included detailed structural and geotechnical logs.

URL introduced a digital logging system based on the Surpac Logmate in 2005, and from that time on all

logging has been captured digitally in coded form in the field. The templates and libraries used by this system

preserved the style of logging used by both CRAE and URL. The original digital logs produced by this system

were loaded into the Altona drilling database and stored in the Altona library.

The Logmate system was replaced by Field Marshal software in 2011, and this system was used throughout

the 2011 season by Altona, but the same logging procedures were followed as in prior campaigns.

In 2014, Altona completed a comprehensive lithology relogging programme of available historical RC chips

and DD core. This programme has provided a consistent dataset of lithology across the deposit used for

resource domaining.

In 2019, CMMC introduced the Logchief drillhole logging software from Maxwells, this software continues to

be used by Harmony.

7.1.4.2Turkey Creek, Blackard, Scanlan, Legend, Great Southern and Bedford

Logging protocols, data collection and storage are all as described above for Little Eva.

7.1.4.3Ivy Ann

There are no original drill logs available for the drilling completed by Dominion in 1992 and 1993, and no

logging is recorded in the Altona database. RC drilling completed by PanAust in 1995 was descriptively logged

on 1 m intervals, with magnetic susceptibility measurements were completed in 1996. Detailed logs for the

1997 RC and diamond programme contain quantitative estimates of mineralisation, veining, and alteration,

as well as lithological descriptions. RC holes were logged on 1 m intervals, while DDs were logged over

lithological intervals. Drill hole logging protocols for URL and Altona are as for Little Eva.

7.1.4.4Lady Clayre

Original hard copy drill logs and/or summary logs prepared by CRAE geological staff are held in the library.

The logs contain a description of the lithology, and visual estimates of economic mineralisation and

alteration. Overburden sections of RC holes and RC pre-collars on DDs were logged on 3 m intervals, the

logging and sampling interval reduces to 1 m in mineralised sections. Diamond holes were logged over

intervals determined by the lithology and include a graphic log of the cored sections together with structural

information in the interval description. CRAE began using a lithology code during this period, which has been

recoded in the database.

Pasminco logs were very similar in style to CRAE for the single diamond hole and the 11 RC holes it drilled in

1998. RC holes and pre-collars were logged on 2 m intervals, while the diamond hole was logged on intervals

determined by lithology. Logs included a text-based lithological description, as well as visual estimates of

mineralisation and alteration Drill hole logging protocols for URL and Altona are as for Little Eva.

7.1.5Core and RC Sampling Methods

In general, sampling methodology was consistent among all deposits, with minor variations between the

different companies and years of the programme. More detailed descriptions by deposit are provided in

Section 6.

Early RC sampling by CRAE used a rotary splitter mounted on the drill rig to produce 3 kg to 4 kg subsamples,

which were collected in calico bags and dried on site, then sealed in polyethylene bags for shipment to the

laboratory. However, in the 1994 RC sampling, CRAE used a spear to collect an approximate 3 kg sample from

the cuttings. Similarly, during the 2002–2003 programmes, Bolnisi employed a rig-mounted cyclone and

splitter to collect 12.5% of the cuttings for dry samples, but used the spear to collect the subsample from wet

cuttings. The same sampling methods were also used by URL, Altona, and CMMC for their RC programmes.

During the early programmes (1991 or earlier), drill samples were collected as 3 m samples, but from 1992

onwards sampling was in 1 m or 2 m increments. During the later programmes beginning with URL, samples

from RC and DD were collected and bagged in pre-numbered calico bags at the drill site during drilling.

Unique sample numbers were retained during the whole process. Diamond core was sawn with a diamond

saw after logging, and the half core was collected as 1 m or 2 m samples. RC samples were taken via a

cyclone and rotary splitter mounted on the drill, producing 3 kg to 4 kg of material that was air-dried in the

field.

The remainder of the cuttings were bagged and laid out alongside the drill. All samples were catalogued and

sealed prior to dispatch to laboratory. Samples were either delivered to SGS Analabs as they were collected

or stored in facilities in Cloncurry prior to transport to Townsville. An extensive catalogued library of core,

assay sample pulps, and RC chips are retained in the Company’s Cloncurry exploration office for inspection.

8Sample Preparation, Analysis and Security

Section 229.601(b)(96)(ii)(B) (8) (i‐v)

The operations and information in this section were compiled prior to Harmony’s acquisition of the Project,

but have been reviewed for reasonableness and accuracy, and updated where appropriate.

The QP is of the opinion that the sampling procedures, analytical quality, and integrity of data meet and/or

exceed standards required for Mineral Reserve estimation.

8.1Little Eva

There is very little documentary information available about sample collection and preparation for the CRAE

drilling campaigns. The available documents covering exploration during this era lack descriptive detail when

describing the mechanics of drilling and sampling procedures. The documents on the exploration work tend

to assume that sampling was carried out in line with CRAE standard procedures, but these procedures are

not recorded.

CRAE DD were sampled on approximately 2 m intervals. It is implied that the core was split or sawn and half

the core retained, since the holes were later relogged by CRAE. RC holes from LE009 to LE033 were sampled

in 1 m intervals, but from LE034 to LE075 the sample interval was expanded to 2 m. Since then, across all

programmes the sample intervals for RC has been 1m.

8.1.1URL 2002 programme

Two metre composite samples of about 2.5 kg were collected from RC chips using a modified trailer-

mounted splitter. Intervals of interest were identified after the first-pass composite assays were received,

and the original 1 m samples were submitted for analysis. The samples were submitted to Australian

Laboratory Services ("ALS") in Townsville. Sample preparation involved drying, crushing, and pulverizing the

entire sample to a nominal 85% passing 75 µm. The primary analysis was by three-acid digestion followed by

Atomic Adsorption Spectroscopy ("AAS") for copper, and fire assay on a 30 g subsample for gold.

8.1.2URL 2003–2006 programme

From 2003 to 2006, URL followed a similar procedure, except that all samples were collected on 1 m intervals

using a trailer-mounted cyclone and triple-deck splitter, or similar arrangement. The major differences over

the years were an increasing refinement of the QC programme and a change from ALS to Analabs/SGS as the

laboratory selected to do the primary analysis in 2003.

Analabs/SGS used methods that included an aqua regia digestion followed by AAS for gold, and three-acid

digestion followed by AAS for copper.

The DDs completed during this period were drilled for geotechnical and metallurgical purposes, and only the

upper parts drilled with RC methods were sampled, except for two DD tails drilled to extend RC holes that

had failed to reach target depths because of poor ground conditions. Core from the extended holes was half-

sawn, and samples collected in 1 m intervals for submission to Analabs.

8.1.3URL 2007 programme

In 2007, URL conducted a metallurgical drill programme of 10 DD drilled with 1 m samples assayed at

Ultratrace Laboratories, using a four-acid digestion, and analysed by inductively coupled plasma-optical

emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) for copper, and fire assay with an ICP-OES finish for gold.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

85

8.1.4Altona 2011 programme

For the 2011 drilling programme, Altona continued with the procedures for RC sampling established by URL,

but returned to using ALS in Townsville for the primary analysis. The methods requested were ME-ICP41

(aqua regia with inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES)) for copper, and Au-

AA25 (fire assay with AAS) for gold. Copper analyses over 1% were reanalysed with an ore grade ICP-AES

method (Cu-OG46).

Two DDs, drilled primarily for metallurgical testing, were quarter-sawn, sampled in 1 m intervals, and

submitted to ALS for analysis along with the RC samples. In addition, the core from four geotechnical holes

drilled in 2005 and 2006 was recovered from the core storage, half-sawn, and submitted to ALS for analysis.

The methods requested were ME-ICP61 (four-acid digestion with ICP-AES finish), and later ME-ICP41 (aqua

regia with ICP-AES) for copper, and Au-AA25 (fire assay with AAS) for gold. Copper analyses over 1% were

reanalysed with an ore grade ICP-AES method (Cu-OG46).

8.1.5Altona-Sichuan Railway Investment Group 2015 programme

As part of a due diligence of the Project assets, Sichuan Railway Investment Group ("SRIG") drilled two

confirmatory triple-tube DDs at Little Eva using HQ core. An independent consultant for SRIG managed the

programme. The holes were submitted to ALS for cutting (half core) and analysis.

Altona drilled two DD for metallurgical testwork. These were quarter-sawn and sent to ALS Perth to be

assayed using ME-MS41 (aqua regia with ICP-MS) for copper and Au-AA25 (fire assay with AAS) for gold.

Copper analyses over 1% were reanalysed with an ore grade ICP-AES method (Cu-OG46).

Four DDs, drilled for geotechnical purposes in 2005 and 2011, were half-sawn and submitted to ALS for

analysis. The methods requested were ME-ICP41 (aqua regia with ICP-AES) for copper, and Au-AA25 (fire

assay with AAS) for gold. Copper analyses over 1% were reanalysed with an ore grade ICP-AES method (Cu-

OG46).

8.1.6CMMC 2018 to 2022

CMMC completed a number of DD  holes within the Project area for resource, geotechnical and metallurgical

studies. Additionally, they completed RC holes across the planned Mill and Tailings Dam areas for sterilisation

purposes, and to test for water.

8.1.7Harmony Work 2023 to present

Harmony has drilled a significant amount of holes for infill, geotechnical and metallurgical purposes within

the first year of ownership by Harmony. Both DD and RC drill holes were logged digitally; the digital logging

system records lithology, alteration, veining, magnetic susceptibility and oxidation in all holes, and structural

data and geotechnical logs are completed on cored holes. Data is saved to Harmony’s server, where it is

merged to the master SQL database.

Half-core samples are collected at 1 m intervals, and RC holes are sampled at 1m intervals and submitted to

Analabs for analysis.

RC holes are assessed using a pXRF machine on 1m samples, and the DD core is assessed using TrueScan

technology that returns continuous sampling data composited over 10cm and 1m intervals along with high-

quality images, or the pXRF machine also.

8.1.8Quality Control Procedures

The QC procedures employed by CRAE are poorly recorded, and appear to have been at a low level by

modern standards. For the programmes from 2002 onwards, URL implemented quality control programmes

which meet with currently accepted practices, and included field duplicates, triplicates, reference standards,

and blanks. No problems within the resource data were revealed by the quality assurance and quality control

(QA/QC) programme.

The data quality and QC procedures were reviewed in December 2009 in the Independent Mineral Specialist

Report prepared by Optiro (Glacken, 2009). Optiro noted that good industry QA/QC practices were applied,

with reasonable rates of inserted standards, repeats, and blanks.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

86

Later programmes continued with the QC procedures established by URL in 2006, which included:

•Regular duplicate sampling of RC cuttings at a rate of 1 in 20 primary samples.

•Triplicate samples collected at the time of drilling at a rate of 1 in 40 primary samples, submitted to an

umpire laboratory.

•Submission of Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) or standard samples at an overall rate of 1 in 20.

•Submission of blank samples at an overall rate of 1 in 45 primary samples.

8.2Turkey Creek

All RC drilling between 2012 and 2014 was completed using either a 140 mm or 5.5" hammer drill. RC chips

were collected at 1 m intervals, as per Altona's standard procedures.

QA/QC protocols for the 2012 and 2014 drilling programmes at Turkey Creek included the insertion of CRMs

at a ratio of 1 in 20. Field duplicates were taken from the RC drilling using a riffle splitter on site, also at 1 in

20 rates. All samples were sent to ALS Townsville, and a standard sample protocol of drying, crushing,

splitting, and pulverizing was followed, resulting in 250 g pulp samples. These were submitted for ME-MS41

(aqua regia digestion with ICP-MS finish). The aqua regia digestion dissolves sulphide and oxide minerals, but

does not dissolve silicates, so the copper contained in the hydrobiotite will not be reported. Copper analyses

over 1% were reanalysed with an ore grade ICP- AES method (Cu-OG46). Gold was determined via Au-AA25

(fire assay with AAS).

In 2015, Altona drilled five diamond holes for metallurgical samples. Core from these holes was sent to ALS

Ammtec in Perth, where whole core samples were taken at 1 m intervals and assayed using ME-MS41 (aqua

regia with ICP-MS) for copper, and Au-AA25 (fire assay with AAS) for gold. Copper analyses over 1% were

reanalysed with an ore grade ICP-AES method (Cu-OG46).

Harmony has continued with the same sampling techniques of the Altona and CMMC.

8.3Blackard, Scanlan, Legend and Great Southern

Early campaigns of DD by Bolnisi and CRAE at Blackard and Scanlan produced core of various sizes, including

4.5", 5.375", NQ, NQ2, HQ, and HQ3. Half-core or quarter-core samples were routinely cut at intervals of

either 1 m or 2 m.

RC drilling by CRAE and Bolini was predominantly drilled with a 130 mm diameter hammer drill. Percussion

drilling by CRAE was completed using either a 4.5" or 5.5" hammer drill. Chip samples were collected on

either 1 m, 2 m, or 3 m intervals using standard CMMPL procedures.

Samples submitted by CRAE and Bolnisi were typically assayed by Analabs using either four-acid digestion

(hydrofluoric, perchloric, hydrochloric, and nitric) with an AAS finish, or aqua regia digestion with an ICP-OES

finish.

Diamond core drilled by URL and Xstrata at the Blackard and Scanlan deposits were typically either of NQ or

HQ3 diameter and routinely sampled as either half or quarter core at either 1 m or 2 m intervals within

mineralised domains. Material drilled in the barren hanging wall was cut as either half or quarter core at

intervals of up to 6 m. Diamond core drilled by Altona for metallurgical purposes was typically drilled with a

HQ3 bit at 1 m intervals, and sawn to quarter core.

RC drilling completed by URL and Xstrata typically utilised a 5" hammer drill, with samples collected at either

1 m or 2 m intervals, as per standard CMMPL procedures. RC drilling by Altona was completed with a 5.5"

hammer drill and sampled at 1 m intervals using standard Altona procedures as outlined for Little Eva.

Samples were typically submitted by URL and Xstrata to either SGS, Analabs, or ALS Townsville (or ALS Mount

Isa) for either:

•ME-ICP41 (trace level analysis of 34 elements by aqua regia digestion with ICP-AES finish)

•MEMS-61 (ultra trace level analysis of 47 elements by four-acid “near total” digestion [HF-HNO3-

HClO4 acid digestion, HCl leach] and a combination of ICP-MS and ICP-AES finishes)

•Hot aqua regia digestion, diluted HCl added to residue, with an AAS finish

Effective date: 30 June 2025

87

•Cu-OG46 ore grade copper analysis by aqua regia digestion, with either AAS or ICP-AES finish.

Samples were submitted by Altona to ALS Townsville for either ME-ICP41 (trace level analysis of 34 elements

by aqua regia digestion with ICP-AES finish), or Cu-OG46 (ore grade copper analysis by aqua regia digestion,

with either AAS or ICP-AES finish).

CMMC completed 18 RC drill holes in 2019 at Blackard with a 5.75" hammer drill. Samples were collected

using standard CMMPL procedures at intervals of 2 m.

Samples were submitted by CMMPL to ALS Townsville for either ME-ICP61 (trace level analysis of 27

elements by four-acid “near total” digestion [HF-HNO3-HClO4 acid digestion, HCl leach] and an ICP-AES

finish) or Cu-OG62 (ore grade copper analysis by HF-HNO3-HClO4 digestion, HCl leach for use as over-range,

with either AAS or ICP-AES finish).

Early QC procedures used by CRAE consisted of duplicate samples (1 in 15) and repeat assays (1 in 15), but

insertion of blanks or standards into the sample stream was not documented. Comparison of sample and

analytical duplicates raises no concerns. Bolnisi implemented a QC protocol for their drill programmes by

using field duplicates at the rate of 1 in 50 and inserting native copper standards at the rate of 1 in 40. It is

assumed that the native copper standards were used due to potential problems during assaying, which may

have included the potential for native copper to smear on grinding plates and contaminate subsequent

samples, and segregation of metallic particles during processing yielding poor reproducibility. From 2005 on,

URL implemented a QC programme for RC drilling that used CRMs (1 in 30), field duplicates (1 in 20), and

blanks (1 in 40). Results indicated that variability of assay data in the native copper zone is significant in a

modest number of the samples, and therefore use of an umpire laboratory check at the rate of 1 sample in

40 was implemented in 2004.

URL designed sampling and specific analytical protocols for oxide or native copper, samples, and sulphide

zone drill programmes. These protocols have been maintained or only slightly modified since that time. The

sampling for oxide and primary mineralisation is the same, using a trailer-mounted cyclone and triple-deck

splitter that divides the RC cuttings into 12.5% and 87.5% volume splits. The larger sample is stored on site in

plastic bags. Subsamples are collected from the larger split, on every tenth sample in the native copper zone,

and every 20th sample in the sulphide zone, and inserted into the sample shipment stream. Additionally, a

sequence of CRMs and blanks are inserted into the sample stream at the rate of 1 in every 40 samples.

Finally, a second subsample is collected from the larger split, at a frequency of 1 in 30 for the native copper

zone, and 1 in 40 for the sulphide zone, and shipped to a second laboratory.

The analytical protocol for the sulphide analysis is as follows: oven-dry entire sample and pulverise to 85%

passing 75 µm, then remove a 1 g subsample with a duplicate sample at the rate of 1 in 20; insert blank and

reference samples into the sample stream, each at the rate of 1 in 50; use three-acid digestion, and analyse

for copper by AAS.

The analytical protocol for the native copper zone samples is more involved. Samples are oven-dried and

then weighed, jaw crushed to -6 mm, then ground in a disc mill (Analabs Supercrunch) to -500 µm. One in 20

samples are reweighed to check for weight loss. Riffle-split into a 1 kg subsample and residual. A duplicate

sample is taken from every 20th residual sample. Subsamples are pulverised to P85 75 µm in a ring mill. A 20

g split is taken, with another duplicate at 1 in 20.

Blanks and reference standards are inserted at a rate of 1 in 50. Aqua regia digestion is used, and analysed by

AAS.

8.4Bedford

Sampling and QA/QC protocols for Bedford are as for Little Eva, except during 2009; the sampling procedure

employed by URL in 2009 was essentially unchanged from their earlier work.

URL initially used a 6" hammer drill, then later a 5.375" hammer drill for RC drilling. The majority of samples

were collected at 1 m intervals, with a small number of early samples collected at 2 m intervals using

standard URL procedures. URL drilled several DD holes with either NQ3 or HQ3 core diameter. This core was

cut to half- or quarter-core subsamples for laboratory submission.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

88

Early URL sampling was submitted to Analabs Townsville for mixed acid, ore grade AAS analysis (old code

GA145). Later sampling was submitted to SGS, with methods modified to include a multi-element ICP-OES

method (ICP21R) for Ag, Al, As, Ba, Bi, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Ni, P, Pb, S, Sb, Se, Sn, Sr, Ti,

U, V, Zn, and Zr. Gold was determined by method FAA505 (50 g fire assay, followed by AAS).

In 2015, Altona drilled one DD hole for metallurgical testwork that was quarter-cored and sent to ALS Perth

to be assayed using ME-MS41 (aqua regia with ICP-MS) for copper, and Au-AA25 (fire assay with AAS) for

gold. Copper analyses over 1% were reanalysed with an ore grade ICP-AES method (Cu-OG46).

8.5Ivy Ann

The sampling procedures used by Dominion in 1992 and 1993 are not recorded, but all RC and PERC drill

holes were sampled on a uniform 2 m interval and analysed for copper and gold. From 1995 to 1996, all RC

holes were sampled on 2 m intervals and riffle-split to produce a nominal 4 kg sample for analysis. Samples

were dispatched to ALS for analysis for copper and cobalt using method G001 (perchloric acid digestion

followed by flame AAS), and using method PM203 for gold (fire assay with AAS). Approximately 1 in 20

samples were resampled at the drill as field duplicates, but there is no report or evidence that CRMs or

blanks were used in the programme. In 1997, the analytical method for base metals was changed to ICP

method, and the suite was extended to include Pb, Zn, As, Ni, and Mo.

The two-DDs completed in 1997 were sampled on 1 m intervals and submitted to ALS for assay for the same

elements as the RC drilling.

RC drilling completed by Altona in 2012 utilised a 140 mm hammer drill, with samples collected at 1 m

intervals, as per standard Altona procedures.

Altona submitted samples to ALS Townsville for analysis by ME-MS41 (aqua regia with ICP-MS) for copper,

and Au-AA25 (fire assay with AAS) for gold. Copper analyses over 1% were reanalysed with an ore grade ICP-

AES method (Cu-OG46).

8.6Lady Clayre

All CRAE DD holes from 1992 through 1996 were sampled on 1 m intervals. CRAE RC drilling and RC pre-

collars on diamond holes for the 1992 campaign were routinely sampled in 3 m intervals in non-mineralised

sections and pre-collars. Mineralised sections were sampled on 1 m intervals. In later years, CRAE

standardided to 2 m intervals for all RC holes. Details of the laboratories and analytical procedures used are

not recorded.

Pasminco drilled one RC_DDT hole and 11 RC holes into the Lady Clayre prospect in 1998. The RC sections

were sampled in 2 m intervals, and the diamond sections were sampled in 1 m intervals. Samples were

analysed by Amdel Analytical laboratories ("Amdel") using fire assay/AAS for gold, and mixed acid/ICP-OES

for copper and base metals.

RC drilling completed by Altona in 2012 utilised a 140 mm hammer drill with samples collected at 1 m

intervals, as per standard Altona procedures.

Altona submitted samples to ALS Townsville for analysis by ME-MS41 (aqua regia with ICP-MS) for copper,

and Au-AA25 (fire assay with AAS) for gold. Copper analyses over 1% were reanalysed with an ore grade ICP-

AES method (Cu-OG46).

8.7Security

Samples from RC and DD programmes were collected and bagged into pre-numbered calico bags at the drill

site during drilling operations. Unique sample numbers were retained during the entire project. All samples

were then catalogued and sealed prior to dispatch to laboratory or secure storage facilities. Samples were

either collected daily and delivered to Analabs/SGS or delivered to and stored in Company facilities in

Cloncurry prior to shipment to laboratories in Townsville.

A catalogued and extensive library of core, assay sample pulps, and RC chips is retained in the Company’s

Cloncurry exploration office for inspection.

9Data verification

Section 229.601(b)(96)(iii)(B) (9) (i‐iii)

Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves relies on analytical data (assays) from samples

collected from drill holes, and the position of those samples in 3D space. The methods and quality of the

sample collection procedures and analytical data have been examined previously by independent consultants

who found the data quality to be appropriate for the purposes of Resource Estimation. Additionally, data

validation and verification has been undertaken by Harmony. Physical verification of drill hole locations and

additional drilling was only completed on the Little Eva, Turkey Creek, and Blackard deposits, the three

largest deposits. The quality of the assay databases was investigated by the QP for all deposits but primarily

focused on the three largest deposits.

Altona maintained a very extensive and high-quality database using Datashed software and has carefully

preserved historical records and thoroughly documented checks and resurveys of drill hole collar locations

and downhole surveys. Collars were probed using a Gyro Survey instrument by URL Resources to obtain an

accurate collar survey record for all historic drill holes. All drill collars checked in the field with handheld

Global Positioning System (GPS) units on the Little Eva deposit were found to be correctly positioned.

Review of drill holes on section did not reveal any anomalies with respect to drill hole locations or

deflections, any deviations found where checked and corrected by the QP. Checking the database against

analytical certificates for approximately 200 samples did not reveal any discrepancies and confirmed

placement of standards and blanks into the sample stream. Visual examination and estimation of copper

grades in drill core and cuttings at the core storage yard was consistent with recorded analytical data.

Previous checks by third-party consultants, including SRK and Optiro, reported similar satisfaction with data

quality.

Statistical analysis of the Project drill data separated by company and/or year of drilling, as reported in

Section 11, indicates that there is no systematic bias to the data, either by company or drill type. New drilling

by Harmony at the Little Eva, Blackard and Turkey Creek closely matches block grades within the resource

block model, providing additional validation of the dataset and estimation methodology.

In the QP’s opinion, the database verification steps undertaken are sufficient, and the data relied upon in this

TRS are adequate for the purposes of Mineral Resource estimation and disclosure under Regulation S-K 1300

10Mineral Processing and Metallurgical testing

Section 229.601(b)(96) (10) (i‐v)

10.1Introduction

This section summarises both historical and recent testwork associated with the various ore types on the

Project property. For additional information, please reference the 2018 Feasibility Study completed by Hatch

for CMMC in 2018, the GR Engineering Services (GRES) DFS for Altona in 2014, and the GRES DFS for URL in

2009. The previous feasibility studies discuss in detail the metallurgical performance of ores from Little Eva

and associated deposits, which contain classic, flotation-amenable copper sulphide ore types.

The Little Eva pit will be the main ore source for the Project. This deposit has been well studied, with 145

flotation tests from multiple core and RC chip sources that ranged in scope from benchtop to pilot plant. This

ore consistently demonstrates high recovery performance with a high degree of liberation at relatively coarse

grinds. The average ore competency lies near the 50th percentile of the JK database, with medium to hard

Bond work indices. Copper is present as chalcopyrite with trace amounts of pyrite. Strong flotation kinetics

result in high recoveries, concentrating to a saleable final concentrate grade following a nominal regrind with

no pH modification. The gold is predominantly associated with the chalcopyrite and reports to the copper

concentrate. Overall, this ore type presents low technical risk.

The sulphide satellite deposits, comprising Turkey Creek, Bedford, Lady Clayre, and Ivy Ann, are smaller ore

sources. These ore types are generally similar to Little Eva from both a comminution and flotation

perspective. Some differences include a stronger deportment of copper to bornite and varying grade

distribution. Overall, these pits show average copper recoveries of 88% to 95% and represent sources of high

recovery material.

The native copper-bearing deposits, Blackard and Scanlan, are distinctly different from other deposits in the

area, containing oxide cap, native copper, sulphide transition, and sulphide zones. The native copper zones

are the largest copper-bearing zones within these deposits, containing a relatively fine distribution of native

copper with varying quantities of sulphides. These pits were studied by previous owners; however, several

recent updates have been completed. In total, 410 flotation tests (including blended ore feed) have been

completed, ranging from benchtop to pilot scale work. On a flotation basis, the native copper zones typically

achieve 60% recovery, with an additional 2% to 3% achievable by gravity methods. Recovery is highly variable

as deportment shifts from native copper to sulphides, requiring flexibility within the processing flowsheet

between gravity and flotation operations to achieve an average of 63% overall native copper recovery. This

ore is typically very soft, resulting in low comminution costs and high mill throughputs. Below the native

copper-bearing zones of both Blackard and Scanlan are sulphide zones containing bornite and chalcopyrite,

behaving similarly to Turkey Creek ore. The flotation response of the ore from the native copper to the

sulphide transition zone increases with sulphide content, as expected.

10.2Little Eva Deposit

The Little Eva deposit is classified as an IOCG deposit. Copper is present as chalcopyrite, with trace amounts

of bornite and chalcocite. The host rock contains high levels of iron oxides such as hematite and magnetite.

Most of the deposit contains trace quantities of pyrite requiring no pH modification at the rougher and

cleaner stage. Chalcopyrite is present in relatively coarse grain sizes, resulting in 95% liberation at 212 µm.

Overall, this ore presents minimal challenges from a metallurgical perspective, as it has average comminution

characteristics and yields high copper recovery.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

10.2.1Mineralogy

Previous mineralogical studies of Little Eva highlighted that the ore is predominantly feldspar, quartz,

carbonate, amphibole, biotite mica and iron oxide minerals, with minor to trace amounts of copper and iron

sulphides. The deposit is low in overall sulphur content, with sulphur assays commonly being less than 0.8%

but ranging as high as 1.6%. QEMSCAN analysis of the bulk flotation feed and the tailings composite samples

has identified chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) as the main copper- bearing mineral, locally ranging in abundance from

0.1% to 2%. Trace bornite (Cu5FeS4) usually occurs intergrown with chalcopyrite and is less than one tenth

the abundance of chalcopyrite. Pyrite (FeS2) and chalcocite (Cu2S) occur in ultra-trace amounts of about one

hundredth the abundance of chalcopyrite. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis of hand-panned

flotation concentrate identified very fine particles (ranging in size from 2 μm to 9 μm) of electrum (gold ±

silver) associated with pyrite and/or chalcopyrite. Figure 10-1 and Figure 10-2 show typical chalcopyrite and

bornite associations with gangue minerals within the host rock.

Figure 10-1: Drill Hole LED495, Specimen 94975, Scale

In the QP’s opinion, the metallurgical testwork

completed to date is sufficiently representative

of the styles of mineralisation present at Eva to

inform reasonable recovery assumptions for

Mineral Resource disclosure. Additional

confirmatory testwork may further refine these

assumptions.

11.1Introduction

The Eva Copper Project is currently composed of six deposits; in order of importance, they are Little Eva,

Turkey Creek, Blackard, Scanlan, Bedford, and Lady Clayre. Little Eva is the main deposit, hosting a majority of

the Mineral Resource and Reserve, while the others are considered satellite or supplemental deposits. As

there are significant differences in the deposits with respect to tonnage, metal grades, nature of

mineralisation, and drill density, different resource estimation strategies were employed for each deposit.

The geology, structural setting, and mineralisation of each of the deposits has been described in previous

sections and will only be touched upon in this section as is required for understanding resource estimation.

All deposits have had previous resource and reserve estimates carried out. Some additional drilling has been

carried out on the Little Eva, Turkey Creek, and Blackard deposits since the previous resource estimates were

made, but the amount of drilling, in comparison to past work, was relatively minor, as the new drilling was

mostly for verification of historical data and to collect material for metallurgical testing. For the most part,

resources have been re-estimated using different techniques and block sizes to better match proposed

mining equipment and incorporate anticipated mining dilution and ore losses associated with the larger

equipment. The type of mineralisation is such that the larger mining equipment, while increasing mining

efficiency, will likely result in higher levels of dilution with resultant lower grades. However, the amount of

contained metal within the earlier and current estimates is similar. It is anticipated that there will be

opportunities to increase grades delivered to the mill through enhanced grade control procedures during

mining together with the use of stockpiling strategies. Resource estimates leading to reserves that form the

basis of pit design should be conservative. Mineral Resources were estimated under the supervision of Mr.

Ronald Reid, B.Sc.(Hons), FAIG., Harmony’s QP responsible for Mineral Resources.

11.2Resource Estimation Procedures

The resource estimation methodology was similar for all deposits, and involved the following procedures:

•Understanding, to the extent possible, geological controls of mineralisation and grade distribution,

and determination of domains

•Deposit description and mineralisation domains based on geology, structure, and weathering profiles

•Determine suitable block model sizes and extents for each deposit

•Describe drill hole database, validate drill data, and extract the relevant data required for resource

estimation

•Analyse the data through univariate and bivariate statistical data analysis Determine what, if any, data

conditioning (capping and compositing) is required

•Variography on deposits and deposit domains (required for kriging interpolations)

•Grade interpolation

•Resource, classification, and validation

•Mineral Resource Statement.

11.3Geological and Mineralisation Models and Domains

The following sections describe the criteria for the definition of the geological and mineralisation models at

the deposits. Domains for grade estimation are based on structural orientation and/or lithological controls on

mineralisation as well as metallurgical/mineralogical zones related to weathering profiles. The weathering

profile for all the copper-gold deposits is reasonably consistent, with an upper zone of oxidised rock generally

between 15 m and 25 m in depth, with a relatively sharp boundary between fresh rock or supergene zones,

depending upon the deposit. The oxide and supergene zones are defined by observation during core or chip

logging and verified by sulphur analyses on a subset of the drill holes within the deposit. Deposit geology and

figures describing weathering or supergene domains used for resource estimation are presented in Section 6.

Domains defined by structural or lithological orientation are described in Sections 11.6 and 11.7.

11.3.1Little Eva

Three major structural-lithological domains, separated by faults, have been defined for the Little Eva deposit,

each domain with differing orientations of mineralisation continuity. Previous workers defined additional

subzones of either high- or mid-grade domains based on drill hole copper grades. Recent work, both with the

data and limited drill core examination, determined that the subdomain boundaries were gradational and

not likely to be visually distinct during mining. Attempts to define the high-grade zones with variography

were not successful and therefore these subdomains were not maintained during grade interpolation. A plan

view and typical drill sections illustrating the four larger domains (and earlier subdomains) are provided in

Figure 6-5 and Figure 6-6.

The upper part of the deposit is oxidised, usually to a depth of 15 m to 25 m, and the transition to sulphide

mineralisation is quite sharp. The oxidised zone contains copper in native form as well as neotocite (Fe-Mn-

Cu mineraloid) and carbonate copper species. Additional testing for recovery of copper from the oxide zone

has been carried out, and no economical method of copper extraction has been determined and

consequently, the oxide zone is considered to be waste. The oxide zone is present over top of all structural-

lithological domains. The contact between the oxide zone and fresh rock was treated as ‘soft’ during

interpolation as grade changes across the boundary were minimal.

11.3.2Turkey Creek

The Turkey Creek deposit was the most recent discovery at the Eva Copper Project and is a copper- only

deposit (without gold). Resource estimation of the Turkey Creek deposit was constrained within a

stratigraphically controlled grade shell above 0.1% Cu. The Turkey Creek deposit occurs as two tabular

higher-grade zones separated by a lower grade zone. Although a lower grade internal core has been defined

as a domain, these domain boundaries were not used during the interpolation as it may not be possible to

segregate this zone during mining. However, interpolated block grades, clearly define the medial low-grade

zone indicating that grade interpolation correctly honours drill data, as well as the potential for selective

removal during mining, depending upon applied cut-off grade. Changes in orientation of the mineralisation

on the north end of the deposit, to the north of the Turkey Creek Fault, resulted in two additional domains.

11.3.3Native Copper deposits

The Native Copper are very similar deposits geologically, being stratabound with locally deep weathered

profiles containing native copper. Additional drilling on Blackard and metallurgical testing on both Blackard

and Scanlan has been completed and will be used to inform a mine plan.

Blackard, Legend, Great Southern and Scanlan are nearly identical geologically and metallurgically, both

occurring near- surface and within deformed and metamorphosed carbonate rich sediments. Folded

stratigraphy and changes in copper mineralisation due to weathering require modification to the resource

estimation procedures employed for the Little Eva deposit. The deposits appear to occur as thin (10 m) to

thick (100 m) bands of mineralisation folded into a tight synform and open antiform pair. The deposits

contain weathering profiles that include an upper oxide zone, which is treated as waste (although grades are

interpolated within the zone), followed by the copper zone where a significant proportion of the copper is

contained as fine native copper, followed by a narrow transition zone of mixed metallic copper and sulphide

species, and a lowermost sulphide zone (Figure 6-11 and Figure 6-14). In both deposits, the weathering

profile and related native copper zone is much deeper or more extensively developed over the synform part

of the deposit areas. The silver content of the sulphide zone is locally significant but was not included in the

resource estimates due to a lack of informing data.

The Blackard deposit strikes northerly and has been subdivided into structural domains based on the dip

and/or plunge of the mineralisation (Figure 6.-10). An outer 0.1% copper shell that reflects interpreted folded

stratigraphy and separates barren rock from mineralisation on drill sections, was used to constrain the

resource estimates. Mineralisation is folded and curved, whereas interpolation searches are generally linear,

so to account for the folded stratigraphy dynamic anisotropy was used to follow the fold curvature (Figure

6-11). Histograms of assay grades on drill sections display high variability of grade down hole, but in some

areas, particularly within the Blackard deposit, alternating high and lower grade bands were noted to align

over moderate distances, both on section and along strike these bands were used to guide the orientation of

the interpolation search rather than the outline of the grade shell. The boundaries between mineralogical

domains are treated as soft during resource estimation but are used as hard boundaries for assigning

metallurgical recoveries. The three structural domains at Blackard were treated as hard boundaries for

estimation.

11.3.4Ivy Ann

Ivy Ann is a copper-gold mineralised trend that consists of two deposits hosted within steep, east-dipping

zones, with strikes to the north and northeast (Figure 6-17). The two deposits are separated by 700 m of

barren rock and are termed Ivy Ann and Ivy Ann North. The mineralisation domain at Ivy Ann includes a main

structural zone and two minor hanging wall structures, defined within an outer grade shell at a copper cut-off

of 0.1%. At Ivy Ann North there are 14 separate mineralised structures interpreted which were interpolated

within a single outer grade shell defined by a copper cut-off of 0.1%.

The Ivy Ann deposit is not currently being considered by Harmony in the current mining study due to its size

and distance from the Mill.

11.3.5Lady Clayre

Mineralisation at Lady Clayre occurs in a variety of orientations with multiple geological controls, both

structure and lithology exert control on mineralisation within a sequence of poly-deformed shales, siltstones,

schists, and dolomites (Figure 6-15). Copper-gold mineralisation is coarse-grained and commonly occurs

within brecciated rocks. Five zones were defined by Altona based on 0.1% Cu grade shells. Mineralisation in

the northern part of the deposit strikes northwesterly and dips moderately to steeply to the west, while

mineralisation to the south strikes northeast and also dips moderately to steeply to the west. The deposit

area was divided into two domains based on orientation of mineralisation, but neither enclosing grade shells

nor smaller subdomains were used for estimation. A separate domain was created for the oxide zone, which

consists of a 15 m to 25 m thick layer with both oxide and carbonate copper species (Figure 6-16).

11.3.6Bedford

Bedford geology was reinterpreted by Altona in 2016, integrating drill data, surface mapping, high- resolution

soil geochemistry, and geophysics into a structural analysis. The confidence in the geological interpretation is

moderate to high, based on well-defined local and regional controls on the mineralisation geometry.

Mineralisation outcrops at surface and has been tested to a depth of 140m and remains open. The Bedford

mineralisation is hosted within a steep westerly- dipping shear zone 50m to 120m wide, striking north-

northeast (Figure 6-18). Within the broad shear zone there is an array of mineralised structures with typical

widths of 5m to 12m, which anastomose but follow the broad overall shear zone trend (Figure 6-19). Drilling

has defined two separate areas of mineralisation within the shear zone (Bedford South and Bedford North)

where sufficient mineralisation is present to be extracted by open pit mining.

The mineralisation is divided into two domains, Bedford north and Bedford South. Both domains lie within

the Bedford shear zone and are separated by an area poorly drilled and mineralised about 800m long.  The

current state of the lithology logs restricts a lithology model to be developed at this stage and will require a

relogging programme to inform future models. The mineralisation is controlled by north-northeast trending,

steeply dipping veins which plunge towards the north, there is sufficient grade continuity in all directions

within the 0.1% shells.

11.3.7Block Models

Mineral resources are estimated by interpolating composited drill hole grades into a block model, which

models the space containing the mineralisation into rectangles or cubes (blocks). The appropriate block size

is determined by considering the smallest selective mining unit (SMU), which is a function of either the size

and type of mining equipment to be used or the spacing planned for grade control drilling, and the spacing of

the data used to interpolate grades into the blocks. Differences in the size and shapes of the deposits, and

different data densities within the Project area result in different blocksizes. Each block is assigned a

geological rock type code, oxidation code or domain code by intersecting the block model with 3D wireframe

models of the geology.

The software used for grade interpolation is determined by the estimator or consultancy undertaking the

work. The Lady Clayre and Ivy Ann Resource models were estimated by CMMC using GemCom Gems

software. The Turkey Creek 2025 Resource updates for Harmony were completed by SRK in Maptek Vulcan

2023, Datamine RM, and Isatis.Neo. Micromine 2024 was used for the other deposits and to validate the

estimates. 

Deposit block models are usually laid out as 3D rectilinear shapes that will fully envelop all known

mineralisation. Details of the deposit block models are provided in Table 11-1.

All block models are in metric units without any rotation and generally are rectangular shaped, with the long

axis to the north and the shorter axis to the east due to the north-south trending deposits. multiple of 5m

high RL blocks were used for all deposits to allow for bench heights of 5m, 10m, or 15m depending on

Effective date: 30 June 2025

96

deposit size. Where blocks are cut by a domain boundary (e.g., ore-waste boundary), a sub-block of 5x5x5m

has been used to define the boundary. All block models are in GDA2020 / MGA Zone 54 projection and in

Mine RL, which is AHD + 1000 m.

A variety of information is stored in the block model, including interpolated grades for copper and gold

(where present), geological codes, specific gravities (SGs), and royalty requirements (Discussed in Section

3.6), various kriging parameters, metallurgical zones, and block classifications. Block models for Little Eva,

Turkey Creek, Blackard, Scanlan, and Bedford are coded according to domains defined by computer solids

models built on geological wireframes that represent mineralisation boundaries and/or any distinct structural

areas or breccia zones. Outer domain boundaries for the Little Eva, Turkey Creek, Blackard, Scanlan, and

Bedford deposits, and all structural boundaries were treated as hard, as the boundary is in most cases

geological, and any drill data outside the boundary was not used for interpolation of block grades.

However, boundaries between mineral-type domains are soft, and data on either side of the boundary can

be used by the interpolation. Blocks are segregated by all domain boundaries. For the Scanlan deposit, all

drill data were available for interpolation, although not all data were used, as many isolated holes were too

distant to have an adjacent hole within the search area, which was a requirement of interpolation protocol.

Only blocks that were inside the geological (or grade) shell were used to report the Resources.

11.4Database and Statistical Analysis

11.4.1Drill Hole Database

The Harmony drill hole database is stored on the company server and SQL format and is accessed via a

Maxwells Datashed front end. Data for each of the deposits was uploaded to a Micromine workspace, where

it was reviewed and analysed. Little Eva, Turkey Creek, Blackard, and Scanlan databases were uploaded

directly from the previously defined file structure used for the 2012–2015 Optiro resource estimates and any

data from recent drilling was added to the appropriate data base. Data quality was reviewed and combined

with Altona’s extensive previous validation work by third-party consultants, the data was determined to be of

high quality, and valid for use in resource estimation.

Standard checks (missing intervals, missing holes, overlapping intervals) did not reveal any errors in the

database, although there were a small number of copper assays without a corresponding gold assay. The

Project database includes collar, survey, assay, and lithological information, as well as drill hole type, year

drilled, and company information from the various historical drill campaigns (see Table 11-2).

Both, DD and RC drilling have taken place throughout all the deposits by many companies, including URL,

Dominion, Bruce Resources, PanAust, Xstrata, Altona and CMMC. A small amount of drilling for due diligence

and/or to collect metallurgical sample material was carried out by Sichuan Railway Investment Group (SRIG)

and CMMC in between 2016 and 2018 and an 18-hole RC programme on the Blackard deposit was completed

in 2019. Table 11-2 gives the breakdown of the drill data by company, the number of drill holes, and the

years that the drilling occurred in all the current resource areas.

The drilling history of the Eva Copper Project dates to the late 1970s, when CRAE began drilling in the Little

Eva and Lady Clayre areas (Figure 11-3, Table 11-2). Since then, numerous campaigns of RAB, RC, and DD

drilling have taken place throughout the Project area and on all the deposits by many companies including:

URL, Dominion, Bruce Resources, Pan Australian, Xstrata, Altona and CMMC. A small amount of drilling for

grade confirmation and to obtain fresh samples for metallurgical testing was carried out by SRIG (2016-2017)

and CMMC in 2018 and 2019.

Most of the drilling on the Project was focused on the Little Eva (36%) (Figure 11-4) and Blackard (28%)

deposits while Lady Clayre has 11% of total drilled metres, followed by Scanlan, Bedford, Ivy Ann, and Turkey

Creek, with 9%, 6%, 6%, and 4%, respectively. Much of the RAB drilling was for exploration outside of the

98

deposit areas, and due to possible contamination issues with RAB samples, no RAB holes were used in the

resource estimations.

11.4.2Deposit Assay Data Statistics

Assay datasets for each deposit were examined using univariate statistics to provide an understanding of

ranges, distribution, and variance to determine the appropriate methods of resource estimation. In some

cases, outlying holes which did not intersect the area of mineralisation were removed prior to statistical

analysis. A summary of assay statistics for each deposit is provided in Table 11-3, and selected histograms of

assay data and composites are presented in the various figures and tables that follow in this section.

The Little Eva deposit has lognormal distributions of both copper and gold, with high, but acceptable

coefficient of variation ("CoV"), drilling was composited to 2m intervals to assist with stationarity. Turkey

Creek mineralisation is a much smaller dataset, and is unusual in that it is negatively skewed, with the

number of samples increasing towards higher grades, likely a function of visually distinct mineralised zones

favouring sampling within the mineralisation. The Bedford, lady Clayre, and Ivy Ann deposits all have high

maximums and correspondingly high CoVs, with low median values due to multiple relatively narrow zones of

mineralisation separated by non-mineralised material. The Blackard and Scanlan deposits both have log-

normal distributions with relatively low CoV’s and have similar statistics to each other with slightly higher

median and mean grades in the Scanlan deposit.

More detailed analysis was carried out on the Little Eva, Blackard, and Scanlan deposits to evaluate potential

for data bias between drill hole type, company, and drill hole orientation. Comparisons of statistics between

exploration programmes by company for Little Eva are shown in Table 11-4. In general, the statistics are quite

similar, except for the mean grade, which is lower for the Altona holes due to the additional drilling around

the edges of the deposit, as can be observed in the drill hole plan (Figure 11-3), which shows the collars

colour-coded by company. Similarly, Table 11-5 compares basic statistics between RC and DD; the higher

mean and medians for the DDs are a result of the DDs being preferentially drilled in the north-central, higher

grade area of the deposit as illustrated in Figure 11-5.

11.4.2.1Little Eva Deposit

Drill hole data for the Little Eva deposit was examined for any form of bias related to different drill

programmes by different companies, or differing drill equipment or drill hole orientations. While differences

are noted in Table 11-4 and Table 11-5, it is believed these differences are more reflective of the location of

the drill holes as opposed to any inherent bias. Table 11-6 shows the global raw assay data for the estimation

domains at Little Eva. The database is deemed good for resource estimation.

A review of drill hole orientation was undertaken on the Little Eva deposit to assess for any grade bias in the

data. Drill holes were partitioned based on either easterly orientations (azimuth 50–140), westerly

orientations (azimuth 230–320) or vertical holes (dip ≥ -80). A very small sub-set of holes were drilled

towards the south or north and are not included (Figure 11-6). Statistics for copper assays based on drill hole

orientation is provided in Table 11-7 and indicates that there is little difference between westerly- inclined

drill holes and easterly-inclined drill holes. Vertical drill holes have a higher mean grade, probably related to a

concentration of these holes in the higher-grade central and northerly parts of the deposit. Examination of

the detailed drill sections indicates that mineralisation is not systematically vertically oriented, and therefore

vertical drill holes are unlikely to produce grade bias.

11.4.2.2Blackard Deposit

A combination of drilling was used on the Blackard deposit and potential for bias between drill types was

examined. Additionally, basic statistics between domains were examined to support the use of soft domain

boundaries during interpolation. Examples of assay data statistics for Blackard domains are provided below in

Table 11-8, whereas examples of statistical analysis of composited data for the various deposits is provided in

Section 12.5.

Basic statistical analysis of copper assays was initially carried out on each mineralogical/structural domain;

however, a better comparison is provided by data above a very low-grade cut-off value as shown in Table

11-8. For statistical analysis three structural or orientation domains were defined for the Blackard deposit as

defined by faults: variable west dipping Northern domain, a central domain and southern domain, which

were further split into oxide, native copper and sulphide domains for resource estimation. The model was

estimated using dynamic anisotropy where the search ellipse follows the curvilinear fold of the deposit but

the statistics have been split into various domains to show the variation across the deposit.

The oxide zone typically has lower grades than the other zones which is as expected since copper has been

leached from this zone. The native copper domains are generally slightly higher grade, than the sulphide

domains, and shows less variability. The relatively small differences in statistical measures between the zones

supports the use of soft boundaries between the oxide, native copper and sulphide domains. The faulted

domain boundaries were treated as hard.

Basic statistics were also examined by drill type for Blackard. The differing statistics between core drilling and

RC drilling is believed to reflect the different locations of the drill holes (Table 11-9).

Diamond drill holes were used for deep step-outs and therefore drilled much greater distances in weakly

mineralised or unmineralised areas than the RC drilling, which is more concentrated within the deposit area.

There are no significant statistical differences when grades within the deposit shell were compared for the

two drill types.

11.4.2.3Scanlan Deposit

Most of the drilling on the Scanlan deposit was by RC, with only the deeper (down-dip) and metallurgical

holes completed by DD, as displayed by the drill plan in Figure 11-8. Therefore, a significant amount of the

DD was peripheral to the ore zone. Grades within metallurgical holes drilled proximal to RC holes are similar

and no bias between drill types has been detected.

11.4.3Data Conditioning and Assay Composites

Data populations were examined using histograms and probability plots. Histograms indicate that

distribution of both copper and gold grades are log-normal, with varying amounts and directions of skewness

between deposits. Compositing of all drill hole assays to equal lengths is required for interpolation. The

choice of composite length is determined by raw data distribution and block size: composite lengths must be

less than the block size, and half the block height is a common and convenient selection. Compositing the

predominately 1m assays to a length of 2m smooths out the histograms, and indicates a reasonably uniform

distribution of values, apart from spikes at, or near, analytical detection limits as illustrated in Figure 11-9 and

Figure 11-10.

Cumulative probability plots were examined to determine whether capping would be required (Figure 11-11).

Basic statistics, for 2m composites by domain for all deposits, except the Ivy Ann and Lady Clayre deposits

where 2.5m was used are provided in Table 11-10 through Table 11-16, and can be compared with the raw

data statistics (Table 11-3). Some high assay values (> 6.5% Cu) in the drill data from Little Eva and Lady

Clayre remained after compositing, however, these values were neither random nor isolated anomalies but

part of a continuous population distribution. The number of high-value composites is very small (for example

in Little Eva deposit the number of composites >4.0%Cu is less than 0.0026% of the total number of

composites) and would have a negligible impact on resource values. Samples were assessed for top-cutting

and capping of copper assays was applied where required. Only a handful of composites were top cut and

the impact on the statistics was negligible. The single very high assay in the Lady Clayre deposit was from a

very narrow sample and was reduced to 4% Cu by the compositing process.

The Turkey Creek deposit has been defined by 121 RC, and 6 DD for a total of 19,261m. Fourty seven of the

holes, and one Diamond hole (together totalling 7,422m), were completed during 2023 by Harmony. The

mineralisation is strongly tabular and stratabound, striking north- south and dipping east at 60°. At the

northern end of the deposit, the strike of the mineralisation swings sharply towards the east, and dips

steeply south (Figure 11-19). Basic statistics of composite assays by domain are provided in Table 11-11.

Although the number of composites is low in comparison to the to the other deposits, the grade continuity of

mineralisation within the narrow, tabular zones is sufficient for defining Indicated resources.

The mineralisation at the Bedford deposit is separated into two deposits, Bedford North and South, which

are 600m apart and lie within the same structure. Previously, narrow high-grade structures were modelled

using a sectional approach for the Bedford estimates to constrain the resource.

However, the estimate was only constrained within the broader low-grade envelope (originally modelled by

Altona) using a larger block size of 5m3. Blocks were interpolated based on two passes, which generated both

Indicated and Inferred resources.

Mineralisation at Lady Clayre has been separated into two zones, East and West, which together form a V

shape. The West zone mineralisation trends north-south and was previously interpreted into 11 different

domains defined by modelled grade shells. The East zone was also split into multiple domains. As with

Bedford, two zones were modelled within the low-grade envelope based on a 0.1% Cu cut-off and use

different search parameters for each zone based on the interpreted generalised trends to the mineralisation.

11.5Bulk Density

There are 1,721 bulk density measurements in the Little Eva deposit data base. The measurements were

made on drill core using the “weigh in water, weigh in air” method. A histogram of the density

measurements (Figure 11-14) indicates multiple populations: separating the data by rock type shows the

separate populations. There were 1,316 bulk density measurements collected from rocks classified as the

fresh volcanic package which has a mean bulk density of 2.84 t/m3. A further 139 measurements were

collected from the metasedimentary rocks, with a mean bulk density of 2.88 t/m3. A total of 203

measurements were made on the calc silicate rocks, which yielded a mean bulk density of 2.65 t/m3.

The mean bulk density values that were assigned to the Little Eva block model is presented in Table 11-17.

The oxide zone did not have enough bulk density data points for detailed statistical analysis. A bulk density of

2.5 t/m3 was assigned to all the oxide zone blocks in the block model. This value is based on the McDonald

Speijers resource report from 2006.

Limited bulk density measurements have been collected at Turkey Creek but as Turkey Creek is similar to the

Blackard sulphide domains, the bulk densities from Blackard were applied to Turkey Creek. Bulk densities for

the Blackard and Scanlan deposits were assigned to blocks based on their mineralogical domains, as shown in

Table 11-18. The density determinations were derived from a limited, but relatively consistent, set of

measurements completed during exploration and metallurgical testing. The density determinations were

derived from over 618 historical data records (sourced from previous project operators) and the recent

completion of 24 bulk sample tests on the Blackard deposit to confirm the historical findings.

Density measurements for the Ivy Ann, Bedford, and Lady Clayre deposits are limited. The oxide zones were

assigned a value of 2.11 t/m3, and for the sulphide zones and/or fresh rock a bulk density of 2.58 t/m3 was

assigned. Samples from the Bedford deposit suggest a higher density (2.78 t/m3), which should be

considered in future work.

11.6Variography

The Little Eva and Bedford deposit variography was undertaken by Harmony and both downhole,

correlograms and directional Gaussian variograms were generated on assay data within each of the grade

domains for copper and gold. The four native copper deposit's variography was undertaken by Harmony and

both downhole and three directional correlograms were generated for each grade domain, a dynamic

anisotropy was used to adjust the dip and dip direction for to match the folded geometries.  The Turkey

Creek variography was undertaken by SRK South Africa and both downhole and directional variograms were

generated on assay data within each of the domains.

Variography was only undertaken on the other deposits to investigate data continuity within the larger

domains, but kriging interpolations were not used due to the limited size and shape of most of the domains

and an ID2 interpolation was used.

Variography is required to provide the necessary inputs to use the ordinary kriging (OK) method of

interpolation. The semi-variogram is used to determine the spatial continuity of mineralisation in 3D. The

direction with the best continuity is referred to as the major axis, with the semi-major being the next-best

direction of continuity, and the minor being the direction of least continuity in an orthogonal coordinate

system. Semi-variograms provide measurements of three components of continuity: the nugget, the sill, and

the range. The nugget is a measure of the randomness of samples, or put another way, the variability

between samples over very short distances. There is an implicit assumption in grade modelling of mineral

deposits that a spatial relationship exists between samples, and that this relationship is stronger between

closely spaced samples but diminishes with increasing distance between samples. The sill is a measure of the

point at which the maximum variability between samples is reached and this distance is referred to as the

range. In addition to the variogram axes, nugget, sill, and range, the curve of the semi-variogram is modelled,

and the type of model (e.g., spherical, exponential) is also used by the kriging programme during

interpolation.

3D analysis and the resulting semi-variograms were produced for copper in all the Little Eva domains.

Geometric anisotropy was demonstrated in most cases, and nested exponential models were fitted to the

data. Variogram maps, generated by the process of determining the orientations of maximum mineralisation

continuity and the appropriate lag distances, are displayed in Figure 11-15 and Figure 11-16. The gold

correlograms are provided in Figures 13-17, 13-18 and 13-19 and the variogram parameters for Little Eva are

summarised in the Table 11-19.

11.7Grade Interpolation

Grade interpolation is dependent on the deposit being modelled. Little Eva, Bedford, Blackard, Scanlan,

Legend and Great Southern were modelled by Harmony estimated using Micromine 2024 and was estimated

using Ordinary Kriging with the estimate written to the Cu and Au fields (if applicable). Turkey Creek was

modelled by SRK South Africa and was estimated using Ordinary Kriging and dynamic aniostropy using

Isatis.Neo 2023. For all other deposits, the grade interpolation was carried out with Gemcom software by

CMMC and were interpolated using ID2 methods. Copper and gold (where appropriate) were interpolated

within “3D solids models” that enclose the mineralised area below overburden. Little Eva, Bedford, Blackard,

Scanlan, Legend and Great Southern domains were modelled using the Micromine Origin software by

Harmony and was based on detailed analysis of the composite data and the geology. The two southern

deposits, Lady Clayre and Ivy Ann, were interpolated unconstrained due to poorly understood geometry of

controls on mineralisation.

Boundaries between domains in the Little Eva deposit were hard boundaries, where the search ellipse can

not use data across the boundary, the outer boundaries were also hard. The interpolation at Little Eva was

conducted in a series of three passes with the dimensions and orientations of the search ellipsoid in each

pass related to the semi-variogram parameters listed in Table 11-19. The copper only deposits (Blackard,

Scanlan, Turkey Creek, Legend and Great Southern) were estimated using Ordinary Kriging and the semi-

variogram parameters listed in Table 11-20, the estimate used dynamic anisotropy to ensure the folded

grade trends are modelled. All the other deposits, which were interpolated with ID2 methods, blocks were

also estimated with three passes of increasing search size to ensure the models are fully estimated.

The search ellipsoid is defined by three orthogonal axis which are given lengths and orientations which

reflects the interpreted continuity of mineralisation in each domain (Figure 11-19). Thus, the shape of the

search ellipse attempts to mimic the anisotropy of mineralisation in each structural domain for each deposit.

Orientation and dimensions of the searches are listed in tables for each deposit. The search orientations are

given as the strike and plunge of the primary and secondary axis, the minor or tertiary axis is not required as

it is perpendicular to the plane, which contains the primary and secondary axis. For a block to be estimated it

must fit defined criteria of the search ellipse as listed in Table 11-21 for the Little Eva deposit, Table 11-22 for

Blackard and Turkey Creek and in subsequent tables for the other deposits. The search criteria include the

dimensions of the search ellipse, and the minimum and maximum number of grade composites required

collectively, as well as the minimum and maximum number of composites required from any drill hole. The

three passes are carried out with increasing dimensions of the search ellipse, to where the resource model is

fully informed. The different passes are usually multiples of the average sample distance. For the deposits

interpolated with ID2, variography from the larger, structurally linear sections of the deposit was used to

provide support for search distances in smaller domains that were determined by a combination of visual

inspection of grade distribution and drill spacing. For blocks that did not fit the estimation criteria in the first

pass, a second pass was completed with a larger search ellipse. A third and final pass was completed for any

blocks that were not interpolated in the first two passes. If a block still is not interpolated by the third pass,

then it is left blank. A maximum number of composites per drill hole is specified to ensure that an

appropriate amount of data form adjacent drill holes is used. The maximum number of composites used per

drillhole is typically a maximum of 3 or 6 composites from any particular drill hole. Criteria for the

interpolations within each deposit are listed in Table 11-24 through Table 11-29.

At Turkey Creek, assay data above 0.01% Cu was examined and an inflection in the data distribution on the

cumulative probability plot was noted at approximately 0.2% Cu. This confirms Altona’s application of a 0.2%

nominal grade for interpretation of a grade-shell outlining the copper mineralisation.

The grade domain models were rebuilt by Harmony resulting in an improved copper mineralisation domain

at Turkey Creek. Mineralisation within the Southern zone is generally tabular and is oriented north-south

with dips at 60° to the east. At the northern end of the deposit, the strike of the mineralisation swings

sharply towards the east and dips steeply south: this zone is referred to as the Northern fold area and was

estimated using dynamic anisotropy. The mineralisation within the Southern zone is truncated to the south

and north by fault zones, (Figure 11-22). The mineralisation within the Southern zone contains both hanging

wall and footwall zones, with a narrow band of low-grade or waste between them. There is evidence of lower

grade mineralisation within the central part of the Northern fold area; however, drilling is too widely spaced

to permit a robust interpretation of that horizon.

The Native copper deposits are hosted in folded meta sediments.  To handle the folded nature of the

orebodies the estimate used dynamic anisotropy, a limited the number of composites from a single drill hole

was also used, and the block grades reliably reflect grade changes within the drill holes. The estimation

domains are illustrated in a plan view in Figure 11-25. Drill spacing at depth was insufficient to meet the

distance requirements of the interpolation, even for the Inferred category, and therefore block grades were

not estimated; however, the areas with insufficient drill density for estimation are generally will below the

designed pit shell. Specifying the number of grade composites used by the search ellipse during the

interpolation is used both to ensure a requisite number of drill holes are used for a particular classification,

and also to limit the composites used to preserve sharp grade changes.

The smaller Bedford, Great Southern, Lady Clayre, and Ivy Ann deposits were estimated with just 2 or 3

domains, all interpolation parameters for these smaller deposits are listed in Tables 13-24 through to 13-29.

Given these deposits are not material to the operation they are not covered in depth here.

11.8Classification and Mineral Resource Statement

Estimated blocks within the different deposit models were tabulated between an upper and lower surface.

For the sulphide part of the deposits, the upper surface was the base of the oxide or top of the sulphide zone

boundary, and the lower surface was the constraining Whittle pit shell.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

The constraining pit shells for defining the limits of Inferred resources and to define reasonable prospects for

economic extraction are based on copper prices, costs and metallurgical recoveries determined from work

carried out, and described, in this TRS. Resources were constrained by Whittle pit shells generated using

metal prices of US$5.10/lb Cu, US$1,941/oz Au and an exchange rate of 0.68 AU$:US$. The Whittle shell was

based on the following parameters:

•Plant throughput of 18.4 Mtpa, with a mining rate of 60 Mtpa

•A mining reference cost of AU$3.93/tonne

•Approximately AU$11.00/t Ore processing cost.

•Ore Haulage cost of AU$0.35/t/km

•Slope angles informed by historic studies with an average of 45 degrees. 

•Copper Recovery is dependant on copper mineralogy, 95% Sulphide and 56% native copper.

•A 10mx10mx10m diluted block model.

For the copper-only deposits, the blocks were tabulated between surfaces defined by the base of the oxide

zone, base of copper zone, base of transition zone, and the constraining resource shell.

Classification of the resources is based on definitions from SAMREC (2016) in accordance with Regulation S-K

1300. Classification was completed using wireframes that outlined regions of similar support, geological

continuity and estimation strength (based on average search distances and estimate robustness via Kriging

slope of regression and Kriging variance). There were no Measured Resources declared as the QP felt the

data support did not warrant a Measured classification in this instance, as Indicated Resources are adequate

for mine studies. Resources are reported at a variable Cu cut-off as defined by deposit and copper

mineralogy type and a classification of Indicated and inferred resources for each deposit are reported in

Table 11-30.

Despite the level of work completed to date, there remains some uncertainties with respect to mineralogy

the impact on copper recovery for some of the Native Copper deposits and these uncertainties are being

addressed in the forward work plan. These uncertainties are not expected to significantly impact the

economics of the project.

Two grade bins will be used to separate waste material from expected low-grade and high-grade mill feed to

allow the mine to maximise NPV using a stock-piling strategy. The oxide material overlies all the deposits and

carries potentially economic copper grades and was estimated at the same time and with the same methods

used for the sulphide material. Oxide resources were tabulated between the bottom of the oxide zone and

topographic surface. At present, there is no demonstrated process to economically recover copper from the

oxide zones; however, as this oxide material will be removed by mining, it will be stockpiled for potential

processing at some future date. Oxide material has been modelled, and will be stockpiled for possible future

processing, but not included into the Resource figures nor the Reserve. The oxide material are presented by

deposit and classification in Table 11-31.

Notes:

Mineral Resource:

1. SAMREC and Regulation S-K 1300 definitions were followed for Mineral Resources.

2. Oxide materials are constrained within the same Whittle spatial constraint used to report the Mineral Resources as detailed in section

14.8 above.

3. Density value of 2.5 t/m3 was applied to all oxide zones.

4. Significant figures have been reduced to reflect uncertainty of estimations and therefore numbers may not add due to rounding.

The Eva Project hosts additional copper-only deposits that have received exploration attention in the past for

which historical resource estimates exist as listed in Table 11-32. These copper-only deposits are similar to

the Blackard and Scanlan deposits, hosted within the same stratigraphy and with the same deep weathering

profiles, containing a mix of copper oxide minerals, native copper and other copper bearing minerals,

transitioning to sulphide minerals at depth. Assuming the same processing method that is planned for use

with the Blackard and Scanlan deposits, these deposits should be considered for further exploration,

highlighted by the recent exploration success at the Legend and Great Southern deposits.

In the opinion of the QP the uncertainty and limitations are adequately captured within the classifications

applied to each deposit. The QP is satisfied that the level of risk is adequately managed and that all relevant

technical and economic factors that are likely to influence the prospect for economic extraction of the 

Resource has been properly assessed.

11.9Resource Verification

The resource block models were examined for validity and reasonableness by several methods:

•Visual comparison of block grades relative to drill holes on cross-sections

•Comparison of statistical summary of assay, composite, and block grades

•Comparison of different method of interpolations such as OK to ID2 or Nearest Neighbour (NN)

•Comparison to past estimations

A basic method of validation is to compare drill hole composites to adjacent block grades on plans and

sections. While this method demonstrates that block grades are reasonable and accurately reflect drill data,

since block grades are interpolated from data at some distance from the section, it does not necessarily

follow that the block grade will exactly match the proximal drill hole. Additionally, it is not possible to

examine every block value, thus this method may only reveal significant problems with an interpolation.

Examination of drill hole grades relative to adjacent block grades demonstrates a good degree of

correspondence, suggesting that block grades are fairly representing drill hole composites, as illustrated in

Figure 11-30 through Figure 11-34.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

142

Drill hole composites from drilling completed after the Resource was run are plotted for Little Eva along with

block grades on a cross-section in Figure 11-30 and are well correlated, indicating that the interpolation is

working well in this location. Comparison of mean copper grades from raw assays, drill hole composites, and

blocks by each domain from the Little Eva deposit are displayed graphically in Figure 11-33 and Figure 11-34.

As would be expected, the mean of the composite grades is lower than the mean grades from the raw

samples, whereas mean grades of blocks are lower again. The difference between the mean grade of assays

and the mean grades of the blocks is a function of smoothing, sample support and volume variance and

indicates the incorporation of lower-grade or barren material as the sample volume is increased. Since data

used to estimate block grades is taken from a number of composites within the search ellipse, it is expected

that some low-grade or barren material will be incorporated as dilution, a feature that becomes more

accentuated by selecting data above the copper cut-off grade (Figure 11-35).

Example swath plots which plot the average grades over a slice width for both the composite grades and the

block models are shown for the Little Eva deposit and the Blackard deposit are shown in Figure 11-35. It is

expected that the block grades closely match the composite grades, but are slightly more smoothed. This can

be seen in the Little Eva plot where the red line of the block model grades closely matches the green of the

composites. Also evident in the example from Blackard where the black line of the block estimate closely

matches the red of the composite file.

Effective date: 30 June 2025

145

Figure 11-35: Examples of Swath plots for Little Eva (top) and Blackard (bottom), showing the block grades replicate

the composite grades.

ID2 interpolations produce similar results to OK methods, particularly when the same composite and block

sizes are used; the variation in composite grades is reasonable (CoV <1.7), and the drill hole data is not

excessively clustered. As these conditions were generally met by the other deposits, it is reasonable that

resource estimates in this TRS were similar to previous methods where kriging and or other methodology had

been used.

Every deposit at the Eva Project was estimated using a variety of methodologies, Little Eva, Blackard and

Turkey Creek using Ordinary Kriging with dynamic anisotropy for Turkey Creek and Blackard to account for

the folding, and Scanlan, Lady Clayre, Bedford and Ivy Ann using Inverse distance weighting were the

variography was not well formed due to sample support. In all cases the models were validated and in the

opinion of the QP are robust enough for use in further studies. Overall, In the QP’s opinion, the Mineral

Resource estimates have been prepared using industry-standard methods, with appropriate application of

cut-off grades, classification criteria, and consideration of uncertainty. The estimates are suitable for

disclosure under Regulation S-K 1300

20Adjacent properties

Section 229.601(b)(96) (iii)(B) (20) (i‐iv)

20.1Mining Properties (Regional)

Mount Isa was established on the discovery of world-scale copper-zinc-lead deposits in 1923. A major mining

complex and a city of 22,000 people have grown on the site in the last 94 years, with multiple open pit and

underground mines, smelters, mills and flotation plants, and a sulphuric acid plant. The town hosts many

mining suppliers and service organisations and has a deep pool of skilled mining industry people. Mt. Isa has

two electric power generators supplied by a natural gas pipeline from South Australia, an airport, rail, and

other services.

Cloncurry was established much earlier than Mount Isa, in 1867, on the discovery of copper by Ernest Henry,

and the town was founded in 1884.

There are numerous active mines in the area. In addition to Mount Isa, there are five major active mines:

Ernest Henry copper-gold mine and Lady Loretta lead-zinc-silver mine, both owned by Glencore; Cannington

silver-lead mine, owned by South 32; the Dugald River zinc-lead-silver mine, owned by MMG; and the Mount

Gordon copper-gold mine, owned by Capricorn Copper. All are major, internationally important mines.

Smaller operations (active or in care and maintenance) include Osborne copper-gold mine, owned by

Chinova; Mount Colin copper mine, owned by Round Oak Minerals, Lady Annie copper-gold mine, owned by

CST Mining; Mount Cuthbert Copper mine, owned by Malaco Mining; Rocklands copper- gold mine, owned

by Cudeco; and Eloise copper-gold mine, owned by FMR Investments.

The only major closed mine is the Mary Kathleen Uranium mine.

20.2Mining Properties (Adjacent)

Mining properties that surround the Eva Project are predominantly EPMs held by the company. These

properties cover a highly prospective north–south corridor with similar geology to that which hosts the

Project’s Mineral Resources, where numerous copper-gold mineralised prospects have been established and

are being systematically explored. No additional Mineral Resources have as yet been defined.

The major Dugald River zinc-lead-silver mine owned by MMG is located 11 km south of the planned Eva

Copper Project mine site, within a ML surrounded by MLs and EPMs held by the Company. The mine was

commissioned in November 2017. MMG indicates that the mine will process an average 1.7 Mt/a of ore, to

initially produce 170,000 tonnes of zinc concentrate, plus by-products. The mine will operate over an

estimated 25 years while the ore body remains open at depth. The mine is an underground operation

accessed via declines. Published Measured, Indicated, and Inferred Mineral Resources are: zinc resources of

64.8 Mt at 12% Zn, 2.2% Pb, and 31 g/t Ag (plus stockpiles of 0.23 Mt at 10.8% Zn, 1.7 Pb, and 49 g/t); and

copper resources of 4.4 Mt at 1.8% Cu and 0.2 g/t Au. Published Proven and Probable Ore Reserves are 32.8

Mt at 11.9% Zn, 2.2% Pb, and 44 g/t Ag. Resources and Reserves are from MMG 2017 statements published

in accordance with Joint Ore Reserves Code (JORC) 2012 edition (JORC, 2012). Stratigraphy interpreted to be

prospective for similar zinc mineralisation is identified within the tenure held by the Company surrounding

the Dugald River Project.

22Interpretation and Conclusion

Section 229.601(b)(96)(iii)(B) (22)

22.1Geology, Mineral Resources

The Eva Copper Project Mineral Resources are IOCG deposits that vary according to setting. The main

deposit, Little Eva, is similar to Ernest Henry.

Mineralisation primarily occurs as chalcopyrite, with subordinate bornite and chalcocite. The Native coper

orebodies comprise Native Copper with varying amounts of copper bearing hydrobiotite and contain a

Sulphide copper portion at depth.

The mineralised zones typically trend north to south and are moderately to steeply dipping.

All models are sufficient for further studies.

22.2Mining

This Resource is suitable for conventional open pit mining methods and typical processing through a copper

concentrate. Mining studies will be orientated around this approach.

22.3Metallurgical Testwork and Mineral Processing

Little Eva, being the largest source of sulphide ore, is expected to see 95% Cu recovery. The remaining

sulphide ore sources are expected to see between 88% to 95% recoveries, depending on the mineralogy.

Blackard and Scanlan native copper zones are expected to achieve 63% recovery through gravity and

flotation recovery methods

The recovery within the native copper zone of Blackard will be variable; however, it will average 63%, as

shown in the testwork. The sulphide zone located below this, is expected to behave similarly to Turkey Creek,

at an anticipated 88% recovery.

Extensive work has been done on Blackard. Scanlan has not seen the same degree of study; however, pilot

flotation work and geological observations on Scanlan have shown it to have similar mineralogical

characteristics as Blackard.

23Recommendations

Section 229.601(b)(96)(iii)(B) (23)

23.1Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves

Although this TRS does not declare Mineral Reserves, a number of technical studies and planning activities

have been completed to support future conversion of Mineral Resources. The QP recommends the following

next steps:

Resource conversion: Target drilling of areas below and within the current pit designs to upgrade Inferred

Resources to the Indicated category.

Development drilling: At the Little Eva pit, conduct development drilling ahead of mining to improve

confidence in Mineral Resource estimates, support future Mineral Reserve definition, and optimise mining

selectivity and grade control strategies.

Geotechnical studies: Perform slope stability investigations on the Blackard, Scanlan, Turkey Creek, Lady

Clayre, and Bedford deposits to inform pit design parameters.

Mine planning: Continue detailed mine design and mine planning studies for the Eva Copper Project in

preparation for potential production.

Dewatering plans: Develop detailed pit dewatering strategies for the Little Eva, Blackard, Scanlan, and Turkey

Creek deposits.
