New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 6.6% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings have declined by 6.6% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (35% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$100m (AU$64.7m market cap, or US$43.3m). New Risk • Nov 06
New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 33% 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (25% average weekly change).

Andromeda Metals Limited Announces Exploration Target of High Bright White Kaolin Defines At the Chairlift Prospect Andromeda Metals Limited announced an Exploration Target of High Bright White kaolin (brightness of +80 ISO B) has been defined at the Chairlift prospect. This follows results from aircore drilling at Chairlift (EL 6664 - Whistler). Interim results have also been received from recent aircore drilling at the Halfpipe prospect (EL 6665 - Hotham), which have shown extensive quantities of high-halloysite (>20%) kaolin. Both prospects are located on tenements that form part of the Eyre Kaolin Project Joint Venture Farm-In Agreement (EKJV)1. Chairlift is located 58 kms southeast and Halfpipe 35 kms northwest of the Great White mining tenement. Chairlift Exploration Target statement assumptions - During April-May 2022, a total of 28 aircore holes for 896 m were drilled at Chairlift, which defined an area covering several square kilometres of High Bright White kaolin. This included 4 drillholes with composite intervals of Ultra-Bright White kaolin (> 84 ISO B). The Chairlift kaolin prospect, similar to the Great White deposit, was developed in situ by lateritic weathering of a feldspar-rich Hiltaba Granite. Based on the brightness (ISO B) analyses from 8 of the 28 aircore drillholes completed at Chairlift, an Exploration Target of 80-120Mt of High Bright White kaolin (ISO B in the range of 80 to 84) has been defined. The potential quantity and grade of the Chairlift Exploration Target is conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient drilling results to estimate a Mineral Resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration drilling will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. The Exploration Target is based on a polygonal model that: 1. Assumes continuity between drillhole intersections of +80 ISO B; 2. Limits the width of each polygon to: a. maximum of 400m along the centerline between +80 ISO B intercepts then; and b. limits to the midpoint between closing drillholes; 3. Bases the volume on the resultant polygon's area multiplied by each defining drillhole's +80 ISO B intercept length; and 4. Uses an assumed density based on a Great White average of 1.46t/m3. Halloysite was identified at Chairlift with the best result returned from drillhole CH22AC021, which in the <45µm fraction from 10m, returned 11m at 27.8% halloysite, although ISO B was low at 72.1%. The Chairlift and Halfpipe halloysite results are the first reported results using Andromeda's HDE analysis, a proprietary method developed by Andromeda for halloysite determination. The HDE method has been calibrated and validated by both CSIRO x-ray diffraction (XRD) and artificial intelligence (AI) analysis of scanning electron microscope (SEM) images. The HDE method was developed by Andromeda as a cost-effective and timely method for halloysite grade control to support the development and operational planning of the halloysite-kaolin mine at the Great White deposit.

Andromeda Metals Limited Provides an Update on Clarke Prospect Andromeda Metals advised that it has received an update from Cobra Resources PLC (Cobra) detailing results from a recent 14-hole (2,144m) RC drilling program, and reanalyses of previous drilling undertaken at the Clarke prospect from the Wudinna Gold Project on the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia. Cobra is earning into the project which is currently owned 100% by Peninsula Resources limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Andromeda Metals Limited. The Clarke prospect is located approximately 1.75 km north of the inferred Baggy Green Gold Resource which stands at 94,000 ounces at 1.4g/t gold. In Cobra Resources' maiden 2020 drilling program at Clarke drillhole CBRC0009 intercepted from 69m, 31m at 3.06 g/t, refer ADN ASX announcement dated 8 December 2020 titled "Significant high-grade gold intercepted at Wudinna Gold Project". The new drilling at Clarke has extended the gold mineralisation over 400m of strike, split into two lodes, with the mineralisation remaining open to the northwest. Additionally, Rare Earth Element (REE) mineralisation has been identified in the saprolitic clays that overlie the gold mineralisation. Cobra geologists, supported by CSIRO XRD analysis and evaluation, have interpreted the REEs to be absorbed on to the saprolitic clays, a style of REE mineralisation known as Ionic Absorbed Clays (IAC). If confirmed to be IAC, the REE grades and intercepted widths will compare favourably to other IAC rare earth projects. Rare earth mineralisation is open in all directions and the continuity and consistency of rare earth mineralisation indicates that there may be a significant opportunity to increase the extent of the mineralisation's footprint. Similar saprolite horizons are also developed over the at Barns, White Tank and Baggy Green Deposits. Targeted REE analyses of the drill samples used to define these deposits presents as a low-cost exploration opportunity to define further rare earth mineralisation in the region. The Wudinna Gold Project Joint Venture comprises a 2,027km2 land holding in the Gawler Craton. The Wudinna Gold Project within the Joint Venture tenement holding comprises a cluster of gold prospects which includes the Barns, White Tank and Baggy Green Deposits. The Central Gawler Gold Province is a belt of gold-dominant mineralisation which formed approximately 1,590 million years ago during the regionally extensive Hiltaba/GRV tectonothermal event. Gold mineralisation at the Barns, White Tank and Baggy Green Deposits is hosted by variably deformed granodiorite/gneiss interpreted to belong to the Tunkillia Suite, a group of 1690Ma granitoids that form important host rocks in the Central Gawler Gold Province.

Andromeda Metals Limited and Minotaur Exploration Limited Announce Bulk Sample Drilling Program Commence At the Great White Deposit, Located on the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia Andromeda Metals Limited announced that a bulk sample drilling program has commenced at the Great White Deposit, located on the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia which is in joint venture between ADN (75%) and Minotaur Exploration Limited (25%). The drilling will provide material for multiple projects aimed at developing new markets that will be in addition to the current Definitive Feasibility Study's (DFS) Great White CRMTM (for ceramics) and Great White PRMTM (coatings) products. The drilling will provide about 1.5 tonnes of high purity halloysite kaolin to ADN and MEP's 50:50 JV Company, Natural Nanotech Ltd, which in partnership with University of Newcastle's Global Innovative Centre for Advanced Nanomaterials (GICAN), are undertaking R&D into new technology applications of halloysite nanotubes. Andromeda is in the process of installing a large pilot-scale kaolin processing centrifuge at the Streaky Bay pilot plant which will be used to upgrade halloysite purity. Great White halloysite-kaolin has previously been successfully synthesized by GICAN to create advanced nanomaterials to specifically adsorb CO2 from a mixture of gases, up to 1.1 tonne of CO2 per tonne of material has been achieved, and work is ongoing to target the capture of 2 tonnes of CO2 per tonne of material. The Great White JV's Streaky Bay pilot plant has been upgraded to replicate the proposed wet processing production plant flow sheet with new screening and hydro-cyclones to achieve the Great White PRMTM product in line with the product specifications for the MSI Binding Offtake Agreement. This has finalised the testing required for the Definitive Feasibility Study and 70 kilograms of ultrabright, high purity product of greater than 90% powdered brightness has been produced as marketing samples for delivery to offtake partners. Material from the current drilling program will be refined at the JV's Streaky Bay pilot plant before being sent to GICAN. There the halloysite will be used for the production and functionalisation of nanotubes that will be used in a direct air and direct emissions capture carbon capture pilot plant. The carbon capture pilot plant has been designed to be able to continuously capture and discharge this CO2 and convert it into a clean fuel such as methanol, which will effectively close the carbon loop. Great White halloysite nanotubes (HNT) have remarkable selective adsorptive and differentially chargeable properties and can be functionalised and/or engineered to create advanced nanomaterial frameworks for a range of new technology uses. Kaolin from the 34Mt Great White Resource containing about 40% halloysite has been specifically functionalised to adsorb CO2 at over 25 mmol/gm at O°C/30 bar. It is anticipated that the material currently being extracted will achieve a much higher halloysite purity and increase the carbon capture ability significantly. Annuncio • Sep 24

Andromeda Metals Limited Provides an Update of Progress Made in Relation to the Great White Kaolin Project Andromeda Metals Limited is the manager of the Great White Kaolin Project, ADN 75% and Minotaur Exploration Limited 25%. The Company announced to provide an update of progress made in relation to the Great White Kaolin Project as it advances towards commencement of operations. Earlier this month, Andromeda advised that it has signed on behalf of the joint venture partners a substantial legally binding offtake agreement with Jiangsu Mineral Sources International Trading Co. Ltd. for sales of 70,000 tpa +/- 10% of refined ultra-bright high-purity kaolin product for an initial term of 5 years at a price fixed for the first 3 years that is at a premium to what was used in the Pre-Feasibility Study which was AUD 700/tonne for ceramic grade material. This ultra-bright, high-purity kaolin product is to be manufactured for the coatings and polymers markets and will be known as `Great White PRM', and is distinct from `Great White CRM' halloysite- kaolin produced to meet the requirements of high-end ceramic manufacturers. The joint venture partners consider the securing of this substantial binding offtake agreement to be a significantly positive development for the Project as it introduces a second product stream to be manufactured on site which has the benefit of providing product diversification and therefore assisting to manage offtake market risk. In addition, the size of the offtake agreement with MSI represents up to two- thirds of stage 1 production for the initial plant capacity being evaluated under the DFS, thereby underpinning the early years of operation for the Great White Project. MSI have indicated that they have longer-term demand for additional quantities of both Great White PRM and CRM, providing added confidence to the joint venture partners that demand for Great White refined halloysite-kaolin material to be produced from a planned full capacity 500,000tpa feed rate processing plant on site currently exists at an attractive selling price. MSI is an active trading company, with a well-established network of suppliers and customers across industrial minerals, sulphur, bauxite, kaolin and copper concentrates. They maintain and operate large warehousing operations in the port city of Zhenjiang, including bonded facilities. Conrad Partners (Conrad) have had a successful business relationship with MSI from early 2017, and MSI have been trading since 2013. Annuncio • Mar 18

Andromeda Metals Limited Provides Update on Drilling Underway at Mount Hope Kaolin Project Andromeda Metals Limited reported the commencement of drilling at the company's 100% owned Mount Hope Kaolin Deposit located on EL 6286, approximately 80 kilometers northwest of Port Lincoln and 160 kilometers southeast of the Great White Kaolin Project on the west coast of South Australia's Eyre Peninsula. The aircore drilling program will comprise of approximately 50 holes for up to 2,500 metres targeting the thick, kaolinised weathered gneiss (Sleaford Complex) of the Mount Hope Kaolin Deposit. Results from the drilling program will be used to update the Mount Hope Mineral Resource Estimate, and where supported (statistically), upgrade the Resource from an inferred to an indicated classification. The 2020 Mount Hope Mineral Resource Estimate of 18.0Mt of kaolinized gneiss included two sub domains; an Ultra-Bright (R457 >84 in the minus 45 micron) high-purity (very low iron) kaolin sub domain and a halloysite-kaolin sub-domain. Much of the infill drilling will target the high purity kaolin sub domain, located in the central and southern portion of the Resource which is typically thicker and of higher quality. The Mount Hope Mineral Resource yields 7.5Mt of High Bright kaolin product (R457 >80) when applying the minus 45 micron recovery factor. The Ultra-Bright sub domain contains 1.6Mt of minus 45 micron material with an ISO brightness (R457) of 84.1 and the halloysite sub domain contains 0.6Mt of minus 45 micron material comprised of 17.2% halloysite. High-Purity Kaolin Testing for Coating and Polymer Applications: The Ultra-Bright domain is comprised of extremely high purity, bright white kaolin with low halloysite levels. This makes it ideally suited to high-value markets in specialist coatings and polymers, thus providing market diversification and de-risking opportunities while presenting new and potentially significant markets for the company to pursue. A large representative sample (blended from 15 drillholes) of ultra-high purity kaolin from Mount Hope Deposit was sent to Europe for processing and testing to determine its suitability for these high -value markets where commercial kaolin products (Imerys Supreme) are currently sold for approximately AUD 1,000/t. The ISO brightness and the particle size distributions of refined product at 70% and 90% < 2um from Mount Hope were shown to be exceptional, which confirmed excellent potential for the high value coatings and polymer markets. In key attributes the refined Mount Hope kaolinite compares favourably to the top commercial grades globally, and even the 70% <2um product is better in brightness. Ceramic fired brightness testing (compressed discs fired to 1180°C) was carried out as potential interest for product blending with halloysitic material, and the ISO brightness (R457) values of the refined product were over 100 (off-scale) which reflects the minimal impurities present. Positively, all processed samples were close to the theoretical maximum for alumina for kaolin and with virtually no colouring oxides or alkalis, which also indicates good potential to produce High Purity Alumina (HPA). To further progress this market, material collected from the 2021 drilling will allow for larger quantities of refined kaolinite to be produced through the recently recommissioned pilot plant at Streaky Bay.

Andromeda Metals Limited Announces Great White Kaolin Project Update Andromeda Metals Limited reported of significant progress being made towards obtaining Mining Lease approval and consequent commencement of operations at the Great White Kaolin Project near Poochera on the west coast of South Australia's Eyre Peninsula. The Great White Kaolin Project is a Joint Venture with Minotaur Exploration Limited in which ADN holds a 75% equity interest. The Department of Energy and Mining of the Government of South Australia has officially determined the Great White Kaolin Project to be a new mine for royalty consideration and hence has granted a concessional royalty rate of 2.0% to apply to mineral production for the Project up to 30 June 2026, which represents a reduction of 1.5% and consequent savings to the Project of approximately $9 million in the early years of operation. The Mining Lease application is nearing completion and is currently due to be submitted next month, which will be a significant step towards the planned operational start of the Project in February 2022. Substantial effort is being directed towards the completion of the DFS during the second quarter of 2021 with a number of options being considered to provide the optimal return for the Project whilst minimising key risks. As part of this process, Primero Engineering Group has been awarded the EPC contract (Engineering, Procurement and Construction). Primero is a vertically integrated engineering group that specialise in the design, construction and operation of global resource projects, which includes valuable kaolin project experience. As well as having relevant experience in the management of similar studies, Primero offers several advantages with an established reputation for the completion of such work within schedule and budget. They also have the ability to continue into subsequent stages of the project development through the implementation and commissioning phases. This is enhanced with well-developed systems for health, safety, and environmental management to give strong safety and environmental performances that exceed industry benchmarks. In addition, corporate finance advisory group Origin Capital has been engaged to assist with the BFS from a financing perspective. Origin Capital are a highly experienced group in all areas of corporate finance and will provide project financing solutions for consideration by the joint venture partners in making a final investment decision following completion of the DFS. Advanced discussions are currently in progress with a number of potential customers to lock in Binding Offtake Agreements. Conrad Partners are on the ground following up all current opportunities in China, along with Andromeda staff who are working on a number of other customers targeted throughout Asia and Europe. The Camel Lake Prospect in South Australia has long been known to be the source of samples of the best high-purity halloysite ever found globally. Positive progress has now been made on this opportunity with a site inspection completed in January and open communications in place with the Traditional Owners and their anthropologist. The next stage is to formalise a site access agreement with the Maralinga Tjarutja People followed by Andromeda geologists carrying out field exploration later in the year. The Natural Nanotech (NNT) research and commercialisation joint venture (50:50 Andromeda and Minotaur) set up to investigate new technology applications for halloysite-kaolinite nanoparticles has doubled funding into the research programs at the University of Newcastle's Global Innovative Center for Advanced Nanomaterials (GICAN). The program will now incorporate eighteen research areas including batteries, supercapacitors and semiconductor technologies, peroxidase and antimicrobial agents in water treatment, and for selective gaseous (CO2, H2) capture-storage-transport-conversion. Construction of a pilot plant to manufacture a halloysite composite for CO2 capture is underway. The patent applications process is ongoing for these unique nanotechnologies involved in producing carbon nanomaterials from halloysite-kaolin precursors and the subsequent processing routes for their specific environmental uses.

Andromeda Metals Limited Updates Mineral Resource for Great White Kaolin JV Deposit Andromeda Metals Limited reported an updated Mineral Resource estimate reported in accordance with the 2012 JORC Code for the Great White Deposit located on EL 5814 near Poochera on the west coast of South Australia's Eyre Peninsula. The Great White Mineral Resource estimate is one of a number of kaolin (kaolinite and halloysite) deposits which are included under a Joint Venture with Minotaur Exploration Limited in which ADN now holds a 75% equity interest. This updated Mineral Resource estimate replaces the previous December 2019 Mineral Resource estimate. New JORC 2012 Mineral Resource: The updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Great White Deposit is now 34.6Mt of kaolinised granit reported at an ISO Brightness cut-off of 75% in the minus 45 micron size fraction. The Resource includes two subdomains; a halloysite-kaolin sub-domain Halloysite Domain and an ultra high bright (ISO B >84%) high-purity kaolin subdomain Ultra Bright Domain. The Resource yields 17.4Mt of High Bright kaolin product (ISO B >75%) when applying the minus 45 micron recovery factor, with the remaining approximate 50% of material being largely residual quartz derived from the weathered granite. The halloysite kaolin subdomain contains 8.0Mt of minus 45 micron material comprised of 13.3% halloysite and the Ultra Bright sub domain contains 0.6Mt of minus 45 micron material with an ISO B of 86.8%. Recent drilling to the north of the Halloysite Domain identified the Ultra Bright Domain which consists of extremely high purity kaolinite with ultra-high brightness (ISO B >84%) and low halloysite levels that is ideally suited to high-value markets in specialist coatings and polymers. The location of the Ultra Bright and Halloysite Domains are identified in Figure 2 as well as the location of the Indicated and Measure portions of the 2020 Great White Mineral Resource in relation to the outline of the 2020 PFS pit shell. The background image in Figure 2 is colour stretched to identify zones of halloysite +5% (teal) and ISO B +84% (red) and demonstrates the heterogeneity of the deposit. The drill data was used to define a flat-lying kaolin deposit that covers an area 1.7km east-west by 1.7km north-south and has an average depth below surface of 23.9m with a depth range of 10m in the west to 46m in the east. The deposit has an average thickness of 9.4m with a maximum thickness of 23.9m and with extremities modelled down to a thickness of 1m. Overburden consists of a thin soil layer overlying calcrete which in turn overlies a mixed sequence of alluvial clays, sands and gravels. The top of the kaolin can be silicified and the base of silicification marks the top of the kaolin resource whilst the change in weathering intensity marks the base of the kaolin resource. The drilling and sampling procedures and analytical methods for the December 2019 and June 2020 drilling programs were the same used for the May 2019 drilling program which were reviewed by H&S Consultants and assessed as having no obvious issues with the sampling or analysis of the data. All lithological units were modelled which for the first time included the subdivision of the saprolite into upper and lower saprolite. The mineralised shells were based off the lithological units but upper and lower extents of the saprolite were restricted to an ISO B of >75%. Samples were flagged from the drillhole database using lithological wireframes including the restricted upper and lower saprolite wireframes. Grade interpolation of the kaolinite and halloysite was completed for the minus 45 micron recovered material, along with Al2O3, Fe2O3, SiO2, TiO2 and ISO Brightness which are all obtained on the minus 45 micron fraction. Ordinary Kriging was chosen as the most appropriate method for the grade interpolation. Block size was 25m by 25m by 5m (X, Y & Z), with 6.25m by 6.25m by 1.25m sub-blocking. Maptek's Vulcan software was used for modelling and the grade interpolation which used a single flat lying search domain of 250m by 250m by 15m. Resource classification was based on the following criteria; Inferred - internal blocks populated by single interval within 250m Indicated Halloysite Domain - minimum of 2 octants populated by combined minimum of 4 samples within 150m search radius Indicated Ultra Bright Domain - minimum of 2 quadrants each populated by two samples within 150m. (Note tighter restriction reflects smaller proposed mining unit and tighter specifications on contaminants) Measured - 4 quadrants each populated by two samples within 150m. The database, triangulations and the block modelling process has been reviewed by H&SC and no significant issues were noted. Material available for Reserve estimation has reduced by 0.3Mt (20.3Mt down to 20.0Mt), although grades have improved, as shown in Table 9. However, tighter constraints for the Measured classification (December 2019 required 8 samples within 4 octants while November 2020 required 4 quadrants each populated by two samples) saw the transfer of material from Measured to Indicated. Importantly the Resource in the proposed first six years of mining based on the June 2020 Pre-Feasibility study is classified as Measured. The increase in Inferred material 5.3Mt to 14.7Mt reflects the new zones of halloysite kaolin identified in the June 2020 broad spaced drilling to south east of the December 2019 Resource estimate. The December 2019 Resource estimate used 4m composite assays whereas the November 2020 Resource estimate used straight samples weighted by length. The use of straight samples was chosen to minimize vertical smearing as sample lengths within the drillhole database range between 1m to 5m (sample length/percentage 1m 8.4%, 2m 17.9%, 3m 26.1%, 4m 25.2% and 5m 22.3%) while the parent block height used is 5m. Density measurements for the December 2019 Resource estimate were derived from the 2018 auger drilling program. The density measurements for the November 2020 Resource estimate utilised data from seven diamond drillholes cored in late 2019 and early 2020. The dry bulk density (DBD) measurements for both programs were calculated by the same process a modified Archimedes - oven dried, weighed, weighed vacuum sealed in plastic submerged in water (with known buoyancy). An average density for the saprolite of 1.44t/m3 was used for the December 2019 estimate. The density data from the diamond drill core gave an average density of 1.46t/m3 for the upper saprolite and 1.67t/m3 for the lower saprolite. Is New 90 Day High Low • Nov 13

Andromeda Metals Limited Announces Mineral Resource for Hammerhead Halloysite-Kaolin Deposit Andromeda Metals Limited report the inaugural Hammerhead Mineral Resource Estimate reported in accordance with the 2012 JORC Code and Guidelines. The Hammerhead Deposit is located on exploration licence EL 5814 and lies 5kms to the north of the Great White Deposit on the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia and is part of the Great White Kaolin Joint Venture with Minotaur Exploration Limited under which ADN is currently earning a 75% interest. The Company has now received the remaining XRD results for the May 2020 drilling program. An Inferred Resource Estimate for the Hammerhead Deposit of 51.5Mt of kaolinised granite reported at an ISO brightness (R457) cut-off of 75 in the minus 45-micron size fraction. The Resource includes a halloysite rich sub-domain and remains open to the east, south and northwest. The Resource yields 27.1Mt of High Bright kaolin product (R457 >80 <84) in the minus 45-micron recovered fraction, with the remaining approximate 47.4% of material being largely residual quartz derived from the weathered granite. The Halloysite sub domain contains 4.7Mt of minus 45-micron material comprised of 21.6% halloysite with an ISO B of 82.9. Significantly, some areas within the Hammerhead Deposit show high levels of halloysite (>20%) that is similar to the existing resource reported at the Great White Kaolin Deposit. ADN and MEP have completed 112 rotary air blast (RAB) aircore drilling holes (4,942.4 metres) and 2 diamond holes (99.1m) used for geotech and density measurements only. All 114 drillholes were drilled vertically to intersect the flat-lying mineralisation at right angles with most holes intersecting the upper (hanging wall) and lower (footwall) contacts to the mineralisation. ADN's composited samples were wet sieved at Bureau Veritas in Adelaide to determine percentage passing -45µm, with the recovered material then analysed by Bureau Veritas using their XRF 4B method to determine elements that include Al2O3, Fe2O3, SiO2 and TiO2. Brightness on the minus 45-micron material was determined by ADN staff at an enclosed laboratory room at Bureau Veritas using the Company's Technidyne Colourtouch CT-PC Spectrophotometer in accordance with Tappi standard T534 om-15. Analysis for halloysite and kaolinite content was undertaken by CSIRO on all samples. This data was used to define a flat-lying kaolin deposit that lies between 7 and 62m below the surface. The Resource Estimate covers an area of approximately 1.0km E-W by 2.9km N-S with a kaolin thickness ranging from 2m to 32m and the thickest part of the deposit open to the south/south west. A plan view of the geological interpretation for the kaolin body is shown in Figures 2 and 3 and structure contours of the top of the kaolin mineralization showing the thickness of the kaolin is shown in Figure 3. Overburden which has an average thickness of 23.6m consists of a thin soil layer which overlies a mixed sequence of alluvial clays, sands and gravels. On rare occasions the top of the kaolin is silicified and the base of silicification marks the top of the kaolin resource whilst the change in weathering intensity marks the base of the kaolin resource. The drilling and sampling procedures and analytical methods implemented by ADN were the same used for the Great White Kaolin Deposit at Poochera which had been reviewed by H&S Consultants and assessed as having no obvious issues with the sampling or analysis of the data. Composite intervals were extracted from the drillhole database constrained by the kaolin wireframes. Grade interpolation of the kaolinite and halloysite was completed for the minus 45 micron recovered material, along with Al2O3, Fe2O3, SiO2, TiO2 and R457 all obtained on the minus 45-micron fraction. Statistical analysis of the composite data was undertaken and showed reasonably well-structured data with low coefficients of variation, all of which resulted in no top cuts being applied. Variography showed that current drillhole spacings are insufficient to support Indicated or Measured classification. Inverse distance squared (ID2) was chosen as the most appropriate method for the grade interpolation. Maptek's Vulcan software was used for modelling and the grade interpolation which used a single flat lying search domain of 300m by 200m by 5m (long axis orientated to 145 degrees) to reflect the overall consistency in strike and dip of the mineralisation. Block size was 50m by 50m by 5m (X, Y & Z), with 10m by 10m by 1m sub-blocking. Two wireframes were used to define the upper and lower saprolite within the mineralised zone. Other wireframes were used to map out geological boundaries above the mineralised zone but these have no impact on the resource. Block model validation consisted of a visual comparison of block grades with drillhole assays and composite values and a review of the summary statistics for the block grades and composite values. An example of block grade comparison to drillhole assays is shown in Figure 4. No significant issues were noted. Density measurements for the deposit were calculated from drill core using a modified Archimedes method with the drill core sealed prior to submersion. An average dry bulk density of 1.39t/m3 was assigned to the upper saprolite and a density of 1.52 t/m3 lower saprolite. Future work to upgrade the resource estimation category will require additional drilling to reduce the drillhole spacings, obtain more samples for dry bulk density determinations and undertake hydrogeological studies.
