New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 45% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings have declined by 0.5% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (45% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m.

ABx Group Limited and ALCORE Limited Report Significant Progress of Its Continuous Pilot Plant Project Adjacent to the Bell Bay Aluminium Smelter in Tasmania ABx Group Limited and its 83%-owned subsidiary ALCORE Limited reported significant progress of its continuous pilot plant project adjacent to the Bell Bay aluminium smelter in Tasmania. The Company has placed orders for all key equipment required for the pilot plant, marking a major milestone in the project. This includes the oleum plant, bath reactors, scrubbers, cooling tower, and various ancillary process components. The total investment in equipment is supported by the previously announced $7.5 million in grant funding under the Federal Government's Modern Manufacturing Initiative (MMI). Most of the specialised equipment is being fabricated by experienced overseas suppliers. The anticipated timeline for procurement and delivery is: three months for detailed engineering and manufacturing design, one month for ALCORE's review and approval, followed by two to four months for equipment manufacture. It is expected that the equipment will be delivered in late 2025. All key equipment for the Bell Bay pilot plant has been ordered with deliveries expected in late 2025. Engineering contractors and consultants engaged, and consultations continuing with EPA and local council. In parallel, ALCORE has engaged key engineering consultants and contractors to support the project, including BFluor Chemicals, an originally South African consulting service and fluorochemical equipment manufacturing company with extensive experience in technology implementation across the entire global fluorochemical value chain, and Kempe Engineering, a leading global specialist provider of innovative engineering solutions and asset services for aluminium smelting, major resource and other major industries. Regulatory processes are also progressing. ALCORE has received formal guidelines for the Environmental Effects Report (EER) from EPA Tasmania, after previously submitting a Notice of Intent for the pilot plant's development. The Company has also progressed discussions with George Town Council regarding planning approval requirements. The pilot plant will be established at the leased industrial facility adjacent to Rio Tinto's Bell Bay aluminium smelter. The facility comprises a 500 square metre building with excellent access to local engineering services and suppliers. The pilot plant will demonstrate ALCORE's world-first proprietary process to produce industrial chemicals, including hydrogen fluoride, from a waste product created during the aluminium smelting process. In the planned subsequent commercial plant, hydrogen fluoride will be converted to aluminium fluoride, an essential chemical for aluminium smelting that is currently 100% imported. This is an exemplary demonstration of the circular economy. As previously announced, the Tasmanian Government has provided indicative terms for a $1 million, zero-interest conditional loan to support the construction and operation of the pilot plant. Final documentation is expected to be executed in coming weeks. Reported Earnings • Apr 02

ABx Group Limited Provides an Update on Deep Leads and Rubble Mound Deposits in Northern Tasmania ABx Group Limited has received results from its representative batch of 71 desorption tests on rare earth element (REE) samples from its Deep Leads and Rubble Mound deposits in northern Tasmania. The desorption tests were conducted by ANSTO at Lucas Heights in Sydney, which has extensive experience in metallurgical testing of clay-hosted rare earth deposits worldwide. Tests were conducted at `standard' desorption conditions of 0.5 M ammonium sulfate at pH 4, which are low-acid, low-cost processing conditions for ionic adsorption clay REE (IAC REE). Highest reported extractions from clay-hosted REE prospect in Australia: The extractions of contained REE ranged from 24% to 83% for the 44 samples from the extensive IAC REE zones in the Maiden Resource estimate announced on 23 November 2022. 73% of the samples from the more closely-drilled Deep Leads project area had minimum 24% extraction and average 50% extraction. These confirm that Deep Leads is an ionic adsorption clay REE deposit. Samples from IAC REE zones of Rubble Mound performed similarly to the samples from IAC REE zones of Deep Leads. Current drilling is focussed on extending these IAC REE zones. ABx tested representative samples from Deep Leads and Rubble Mound. The results increased ABx's understanding of variations in REE extraction and, most importantly, confirmed that both Deep Leads and Rubble Mound have large zones of genuine ionic adsorption clay REE mineralisation. Some zones have exceptionally high extraction, including 83% extraction for one sample from Rubble Mound, which is only in the early stages of drill evaluation. Deep Leads has been drilled more extensively, and 36 of the 49 samples (73% of samples) achieved extractions above 24%, averaging 50% overall. Large potential extensions to the IAC REE zones have been identified by this testwork at both Deep Leads and Rubble Mound, and the drill rig that is currently exploring at Deep Leads and Rubble Mound has been deployed to drill out these newly identified IAC REE zones. High extractions were achieved from drillholes that were geographically widespread across Deep Leads and Rubble Mound, and came from drill samples taken from a range of depths. High extractions were obtained from the full range of REE grades and were not restricted to the higher grade samples. An advantage of this IAC REE type of mineralisation is that it is proportionally enriched in the four most valuable REE that are used in permanent magnets, namely praseodymium (Pr), neodymium (Nd), terbium (Tb) and dysprosium (Dy). Furthermore, the extractions achieved from these desorption tests are highest for these permanent magnet REE (Table 1). It is significant that these results were obtained using ammonium sulfate at pH 4, which is similar to the conditions used in China for purely ionic adsorption clay type deposits. Many clay-hosted REE deposits can require lower pH to achieve similar levels of REE extraction. The widespread high extractions mean that ABx can give more consideration to processing of ionic adsorption clay REE deposits, namely mining, desorption, impurity removal and precipitation. Optimised processes are crucial to maximising the profitability of a rare earth project. ABx has already engaged with ANSTO on the desorption tests described here, and is developing relationships with other organizations with expertise in rare earths. The results also enable early development of rehabilitation technologies that suit the Tasmanian setting of the ABx deposits within hardwood plantations that may be replanted after REE production. ABx has been conducting further drilling of the Deep Leads and Rubble Mound deposits since 17 January this year and is expediting assay results. Drilling of the outlying greenfield areas during the second half of 2022 was highly successful. It was conducted subject to a Tasmanian State Government, Exploration Drilling Grant Initiative (EDGI) for co-funded exploration drilling projects, which is gratefully acknowledged. Annuncio • Jan 23
Abx Group Limited Commences Its Drilling Campaign Ahead of Schedule At Its Deep Leads and Rubble Mound Rare Earth Element Discoveries in Northern Tasmania ABx Group Limited has commenced its drilling campaign ahead of schedule at its Deep Leads and Rubble Mound rare earth element (REE) discoveries in northern Tasmania. Mobilisation of the RC drill rig to site was completed on 17 January 2023, with the 120-hole campaign expected to take three months. Assay results from this drilling campaign will be fast-tracked and batches of results could start arriving within a few weeks. The primary aim of this campaign is to extend the mineralisation zone between the Deep Leads and Rubble Mound rare earth discoveries. Importantly, the favourable dry summer conditions will allow drill rig access to key low-lying targets which had been difficult to access during the unusually wet winter. Recent results have confirmed that the Rubble Mound and Wind Break discovery areas are both high grade REE centres similar to Deep Leads. ABx has applied for a new exploration licence application covering the corridor between Deep Leads /Rubble Mound and the Wind Break discovery, which lies 13.5km northeast of Deep Leads. The ABx exploration team will seek to confirm the most prospective REE-rich channel that will connect through to Wind Break, with several potential channels already evident. If granted, the new tenement will allow ABx's REE exploration to confirm the degree of continuity of mineralisation between the three discovery areas as part of a larger REE domain. Recent REE assay results from the Wind Break discovery have revealed Wind Break to be higher grade and more extensive than previously reported. Annuncio • Nov 23
ABx Group Delivers Maiden REE Resource Estimate for Deep Leads Rubble Mound Channel ABx Group announced the delivery of a maiden JORC compliant Mineral Resource Estimate for the Deep Leads - Rubble Mound channel area, the first estimate from within the company's rare earth elements (REE) project in northern Tasmania. The Mineral Resource Estimate is 3.94 million tonnes averaging 655ppm TREO-CeO2 and 918ppm TREO at a 200ppm TREO-CeO2 cut-off2 grade, including 511,917 tonnes averaging 785ppm TREO-CeO2 and 905ppm TREO in the indicated category. Following completion of the maiden Mineral Resource estimate for the Deep Leads - Rubble Mound channel, the company will now undertake further metallurgical testing to obtain more data on recoveries. This will be followed by further drilling, commencing in January 2023, with an aim to grow the resource base. Deep Leads REE mineralisation is enriched in the more valuable permanent magnet type of REE and includes true ionic adsorption (IAC) clay zones that achieve excellent extraction rates of up to 71% from the main type of REE mineralisation under standard desorption test conditions, which represent low-acid, low-cost processing.

ABx Group Limited Announces Commencement of Its 3rd Drilling Campaign to Test a 6.5Km Mineralized Corridor Connecting the Deep Leads and Rubble Mound Rare Earth Discoveries, in Northern Tasmania ABx Group Limited announced the commencement of its 3rd drilling campaign to test a 6.5km mineralised corridor connecting the Company's Deep Leads and Rubble Mound rare earth discoveries, located in northern Tasmania. Mobilisation of the RC rig to site was completed on 10th October 2022 with the 70-hole campaign anticipated to take 6 weeks to complete, with assay results expected to be received in batches from early November and into early CY2023. This 3rd drilling campaign will consist of approximately 70 holes of aircore RC drilling and push-tube coring totalling 800 metres. The campaign is designed to follow-up on the previous campaigns of first-pass exploratory drilling that discovered a continuation of the REE mineralisation for the entire distance between Deep Leads and Rubble Mound Rare Earth discoveries. That exploratory drilling confirmed a 6.5km contiguous mineralized corridor which remains open for possible extensions to the east, north and south that all warrant further drill testing, as is planned in this 3rd drilling campaign. The previous drilling campaign results highlighted clay-hosted REE that occur within a shallow channel structure that increased the prospect size by 27% to 5.1 km2 and demonstrated the potential for the mineralized zone to deliver thick intersections. Assay results and ABx's knowledge of this REE mineralization have also seen the project expand significantly, increasing the combined prospective area to be drill tested to more than 30km2. Follow-up drilling will primarily focus on widening the mineralized corridor by drilling holes that step out from the known northwest trending channel. The campaign will also test in-fill targets between Deep Leads and Rubble Mound, as well as inspect a new style of REE mineralization encountered in river flats to the south of the project.

ABx Group Limited Provides Assay Results Which Confirm A 6.5Km Mineralised Channel Connecting the Deep Leads and Rubble Mound Rare Earth Discoveries, Located in Northern Tasmania ABx Group Limited provided assay results which confirm a 6.5km mineralised channel connecting the Company's Deep Leads and Rubble Mound rare earth discoveries, located in northern Tasmania. The clay-hosted rare earth elements (REE) occur within a shallow channel structure that increases the prospect size by 27% to 5.1 km2 and demonstrates the potential for the mineralised zone to deliver thick intersections as well as expand significantly along strike. The combined prospective area to be drill tested has increased to more than 30km2. Assay results confirm the adjoining mineralisation contains excellent grades, with holes such as RM217 returning a maximum of 2511 ppm of total rare earth oxide (TREO). This hole has also proven that the channel can host thicker intercepts, in this case to a depth of over 20 metres. Further work will be required to assess the size and depth potential of this connected area. To date, rare earths encountered have typically been concentrated in buried channel structures of 6-12m depth. However, the latest results demonstrate the region's capacity to host even shallower mineralisation, with RM219 recording a 1m assay grading 1884ppm TREO at surface. These results will feed into a maiden JORC Resource Estimation, which is already underway. Upcoming drilling campaign: The receipt of the Company's latest assay results has increased ABx's confidence in its geological interpretation and will inform targeting work for an upcoming drilling program, anticipated to commence in October 2022. The campaign is pending government approvals with most proposed drill site locations already falling under a previously approved work program. During this campaign, ABx intends to complete approximately 70 drill holes with much of this work focussed on stepping out from the known northwest trending channel. The company will also test in-fill targets between Deep Leads and Rubble Mound, as well as inspect a new style of REE mineralisation encountered in alluvial flats to the south of the project.

New drilling technologies were introduced during this winter drilling campaign, including push tube coring which will be further developed in the next drilling campaign. The REE mineralisation at Deep Leads is clay-hosted, often most concentrated in buried channel structures. Deep Leads hosts the rare, true ionic adsorption clay (IAC) type of REE deposits and has excellent extraction rates of 50% to 75% of contained REE under low-cost processing 1. The 150 holes drilled in the winter campaign discovered REE mineralized intercepts over an area 7km x 4.6km. Further drilling is planned in coming months. Rare earth element channels confirmed and extended 750 metres. The southwest trending channel delineated by holes DL403, DL450 and DL453 has been extended 750m westwards by hole DL520 that intersected 5m thickness of ionic adsorption clay REE mineralization averaging 2,170 ppm TREO from 3m depth. Tests on this channel mineralisation in hole DL403 confirmed that it can be easily processed at low cost with extraction rates of 50% to 75% under standard leach conditions 1, the same as used in similar Chinese IAC REE deposits. Holes DL522 and DL531 confirmed that the northwest trending channel is well mineralized and holes across the western slopes between the northwest and southwest trending channels are showing a widespread series of well mineralised smaller channels. Rare earth element mineralisation extends to the alluvial flats are excited by the REE mineralisation in holes in the southern alluvial flats located south of Deep Leads line-of-lode, as exemplified by hole RM175 which contained 6m averaging 1,435ppm TREO between 4m and 10m depth. This is a new style of REE mineralisation which could be thick and very extensive. The company also await assays from holes into the southwestern alluvial flats. Exploring the 6km mineralised corridor between Deep Leads and Rubble Mound Nine holes were drilled in the 6km wide mineralised corridor between Deep Leads and the Rubble Mound REE discovery. Assays are keenly awaited. Drilling program continues ABx's drillholes in outlying greenfield areas are subject to a Tasmanian State Government, Exploration Drilling Grant Initiative (EDGI) for co-funded exploration drilling projects. Abx and Tasmania's eDrill's improved drilling technology result in many holes now reaching target depths and collecting cores from important strata using push-tube methods. The ABx field team, led by Group General Manager Operations Nathan Towns worked closely with eDrill drilling contractors to achieve these discoveries during the harshest winter conditions in years. The drilling program is to recommence in October. Reported Earnings • Sep 01

ABx Group Limited Receives an Initial Batch of Assays from Exploration Drilling for Rare Earth Element (REE) at Deep Leads Deposit, Northern Tasmania ABx Group Limited has received an initial batch of assays from exploration drilling for rare earth element (REE) at Deep Leads deposit, northern Tasmania. ABx's mineralisation is mainly the most valuable permanent magnet type of REE. Hole DL450 was the first hole to reach target depth and it returned 10 metres of REE mineralisation averaging 863ppm TREO, including 6 metres averaging 1,122ppm TREO from 5 metres depth. It discovered the channel that carries the high-grade ionic adsorption clay REE mineralisation westwards towards major channels that are being drilled now. High grades: Holes DL450, DL453 and DL462 returned high-grade REE results that extended the area of strong mineralisation. These holes ended while still in the strongly mineralised zone due to drill difficulties with water and broken ground. Hole DL453 intersected 4 metres of clay with high REE grades and assays for shallower samples are still pending. ABx has drilled 88 new holes at Deep Leads since 19 April. Early results have been received from only 20 holes that are reported here . These results have tripled the prospective area, including 6 major channels that can extend ABx's ionic adsorption clay REE mineralisation by over 6.5 km towards Rubble Mound discovery. Drilling program continues ABx's current drillholes in outlying greenfield areas are subject to a Tasmanian State Government, Exploration Drilling Grant Initiative (EDGI) for co-funded exploration drilling projects. ABx and Tasmania's E-Drill's improved drilling technology result in many holes now reaching target depths and collecting cores from important strata using push-tube methods. The drilling program is planned to continue in July, including testing the 6 major channels at Deep Leads and a first pass drill testing of the 6km long extensions between Deep Leads and Rubble Mound project areas.

ABx Group Limited Receives Its First 12 Desorption Test Results on Rare Earth Element (REE) Samples from Its Deep Leads Deposit in Northern Tasmania ABx Group Limited has received its first 12 desorption test results on rare earth element (REE) samples from its Deep Leads deposit in northern Tasmania. The desorption tests were conducted by ANSTO in Sydney, which has extensive experience in metallurgical testing of clay-hosted rare earth deposits worldwide. The tests were conducted at "standard" desorption conditions of 0.5 M ammonium sulfate at pH 4 which are low-acid, low-cost processing conditions for ionic adsorption clay REE. ABx purposely tested a range of mineralisation types from Deep Leads, Portrush and Windbreak deposits to improve its understanding of the factors affecting REE extraction rates and, most importantly, to confirm that Deep Leads contains ionic adsorption clay (IAC) mineralisation. The five best extraction results were from holes DL403 and DL409 which represent ABx's main target REE mineralisation at Deep Leads discovered to date 1. REE extractions in these five samples were excellent, ranging from 40% to 75% of each of the permanent magnet REE (Nd, Pr, Dy, Tb) and 48% to 71% of the total rare earths except cerium. It is significant that these results were obtained using ammonium sulfate at pH 4, which is similar to the conditions used in China for purely ionic adsorption clay type deposits. Some other clay-hosted REE deposits can require significantly more acid to achieve similar levels of REE extraction. The distribution and composition of REE mineralisation in basement rocks is part of ABx's exploration technology. As expected, REE extraction from basement rock probably requiresa different processing route than the standard conditions reported here for ABx's IAC type of mineralisation, which is the main target for ABx's exploration. Drilling Program - ABx has been conducting further drilling of the Deep Leads deposit since late April and awaits assay results. However, geological features discovered during this drilling have justified drilling holes in outlying greenfield areas not previously contemplated. These major holes in greenfield areas are subject to a Tasmanian State Government, Exploration Drilling Grant Initiative (EDGI) for co-funded exploration drilling projects. The desorption test results will provide further guidance to the drilling program, and ABx is improving its ability to identify the type of mineralisation where the REEs can be easily desorbed. The drilling program is planned to continue into June. Board Change • Apr 27

Australian Bauxite Limited Reports Recent Assay Results from Its Deep Leads Rare Earth Element Discovery at the DL130 Bauxite Deposit in Northern Tasmania Australian Bauxite Limited reported recent assay results from its Deep Leads rare earth element (REE) discovery at the DL130 bauxite deposit in northern Tasmania, which is now proven to extend for more than 3.25 kilometres. Higher grade of super magnet REE to date and thicker intercepts The intercept in hole DL392 has the higher grades of all four super-magnet REE to date, including 493ppm of neodymium oxide (Nd2O3), which is the main super-magnet REE 1. The mineralisation in recent holes DL392 and DL393 is at least three metres thick, but the drill rig was unable to drill all the way through the mineralised zone due to mixtures of wet clays and broken, altered rock with high water flow rates. Hole DL393 is the first hole drilled into Target 2. Results from the next 20 drillholes are pending: ABx awaits assay results from 20 more recent drillholes that can materially expand the areal extent of the Deep Leads REE mineralisation. These 20 holes with assays pending. Annuncio • Sep 13
Australian Bauxite Limited Reports Results from Leach Testing of Its Rare Earth Element Mineralization At the DL130 Bauxite-REE Project in Northern Tasmania Australian Bauxite Limited report results from leach testing of its rare earth element mineralisation at the DL130 bauxite-REE project in northern Tasmania. ABx discovered mineralisation enriched in the super-magnetic rare earth elements Neodymium, Praseodymium, Terbium and Dysprosium which are strategically important, high priced metals needed for electric vehicles, wind turbines, smart phones and military electronics. A 400% enrichment of sulphur (S) in the precipitate was unexpected and may indicate that soluble REE may be leached strongly by dilute sulphate solutions. A test using dilute solution of ammonium sulphate and water is in progress to test this concept. Annuncio • May 29
Australian Bauxite Limited Reports Rare Earth Element Results from Exploration at DL130 bauxite-REE Project in Northern Tasmania Australian Bauxite Limited reported rare earth element (REE)results from exploration at the DL130 bauxite-REE project in northern Tasmania: The new samples have returned the strongest REE enrichment discovered to date, nearly doubling the previous highest grade; In northern Tasmania, the most enriched element is Neodymium which is the main REE metal in super-magnets used in electric vehicles, wind turbines, smart phones and military electronics. ABx's Exploration Strategy remains as follows: To explore for Neodymium which the REE in strongest demand. Prices for the super-magnet elements have risen strongly which are critical strategic metals for production of electric vehicles, wind turbines, smart phones and military electronics; To find Ionic Adsorption Clay (IAC) style of mineralisation which is analogous with the IAC deposits that have produced REE in southern China using simple leaching. This deposit type has low capital costs and low operating costs, especially if in-situ leaching proves safe and effective; To explore in areas where an IAC leaching project will not interfere with alternative land use; To always comply with ABx's paramount policy to leave land better than the company find it and only operate where welcomed.

Australian Bauxite Limited Reports on Early Results from an Exploration Project Australian Bauxite Limited reported on early results from an exploration project carried out over the last 15 months involving rare earth elements (REE) that occur within the ABx bauxite horizon. Assaying is by the NATA-registered ALS commercial laboratory, Brisbane. This exploration project was undertaken despite the difficult pandemic year and major results are: Clays at Binjour bauxite deposit in QLD were found to contain soluble REE and ABx's exploration technology was used to identify other REE prospects in Eastern Australia; Two Tasmanian prospects, DL130 and Fingal Rail, were identified and REE assay results for 26 random drillhole samples have shown that DL130 is enriched; The DL130 prospect returned REE values that averaged six times higher grade than both the Binjour clays and from the Fingal Rail project, indicating a different origin of the REE at DL130; Enriched zones at DL130 are 4 to 18 metres thick and extend with good continuity over distances exceeding 1 kilometre. Best results at DL130 came from a specific rock unit and mineralisation is relatively enriched in light rare earth elements (LREE); ABx has identified more than 4,500 metres of samples that warrant REE assessment; The solubility and ease of concentration of ABx's REE mineralisation is being assessed at ABx's bauxite research laboratory in Launceston, and concentrates will be tested at the Alcore Research Centre in Central Coast NSW using Alcore's fluorine chemical technologies; Early testwork indicates that this type of REE mineralisation leaches in weak mineral acids and the grades were upgraded by 172% on average in a single pass; Like all ABx bauxites, deleterious elements, including uranium and thorium, are usually low.
