New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Australian stocks, typically moving 18% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-AU$11m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (18% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (37% increase in shares outstanding).

New major risk - Financial position The company has less than a year of cash runway based on its current free cash flow trend. Free cash flow: -AU$11m This is considered a major risk. With less than a year's worth of cash, the company will need to raise capital or take on debt unless its cash flows improve. This would dilute existing shareholders or increase balance sheet risk. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-AU$11m free cash flow).

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 59% 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 (21% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 17% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (59% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m.

New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: AU$15.3m (US$9.98m) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook.

Iris Metals Limited Announces Drilling Rig Contracted and Met Test Work Commencing IRIS Metals Limited announced that it has contracted with an RC drilling rig to commence a 10,000 m program at its South Dakota Lithium Project, aimed at resource definition. The drilling program will be targeting the Black Diamond Mine and the Beecher Mine pegmatites. The Black Diamond Mine is located on a freehold patented mining claim and was predominantly mined for beryllium back in the 50's and 60's. The walls on both sides of the open cut contain logs of spodumene, and mapping conducted by USGS geologist back in 1945 indicate the potential for significant volumes of this spodumene rich zone. The LCT-pegmatite extends north over a 950m strike length with widths up to 60m wide. Historic diamond drilling conducted in the early 40's demonstrated that the pegmatite is open to at least 60m below surface. Spodumene is mapped over the entire length of the Black Diamond pegmatite supported by the strong lithium readings returned when testing the pegmatite with a LIBS analyzer. Drill testing of the southern extension of the Beecher Mine is also planned. The Beecher Mine historically produced lithium concentrate along with other commercial minerals. As Black Diamond and Beecher Extended are on patented claims, the approval process for drilling is far easier than for a BLM Claim. Considering this expedited process for obtaining drilling permits IRIS has contracted an RC drilling company to carry out an initial 10,000m drilling program. This program will initially focus on testing under and along strike of the historic Black Diamond mine as well as testing the southern strike extension of the mineralized Beecher pegmatite. RC drilling is also planned to be carried out on the Beecher extended patented claim. This will test for lithium spodumene directly along strike of the historic Beecher Lode mine. The Beecher Lode was the largest historical lithium producing mine in the Black Hills. Metallurgical Test Work: IRIS has contracted Independent Metallurgical Operations (IMO) to manage the metallurgical test work of spodumene pegmatite ore material sampled from the Beecher lithium trend. IMO will oversee the heavy liquid separation (HLS) and dense media separation (DMS) test work to be carried out by SGS laboratories in Canada. Bulk material comprising 240kg of fresh mineralized pegmatite will be sampled from various locations at the Beecher project. Geologists will select representative material from sites with varying sized spodumene minerals. Annuncio • Sep 07
IRIS Metals Limited Announces New Aeromagnetic Targets Identified over Recently Acquired Kookynie Tenure Exploration to Recommence At Kookynie and Leonora IRIS Metals Limited announced the completion of interpretation of high-resolution aeromagnetic survey data covering its newly acquired tenure at Kookynie, located approximately 60km south of Leonora, in the gold fields of Western Australia. Aeromagnetic and Radiometric Survey: The detailed aeromagnetic survey was completed by Magspec Airborne Surveys Pty Ltd. in 2021 as part of IRIS' initial data acquisition. The survey data was collected at 50m line spacing and average sensor height of 30m above ground level. The survey comprised 6,342-line kilometers in total. Given that the acquired tenure is within the initial survey area, IRIS was able to incorporate the new tenements into the project-wide structural interpretation Data Interpretation & Analysis: Interpretation of the Kookynie airborne geophysical survey has identified an additional 2 high priority structural geological gold targets for evaluation. This is in addition to the previously reported 24 initial aeromagnetic targets across the tenement package. IRIS looks forward to integrating these targets into its exploration plans moving forward. WA Exploration Plan: As noted in IRIS' latest quarterly, the Company has undertaken a detailed review of both historical information and newly acquired information through IRIS' aeromagnetic studies at Kookynie and Leonora, and also its maiden RC and AC drill data at Kookynie. While IRIS achieved some wide and high-grade intercepts across its various prospects, the results achieved at its highest priority Rise & Shine prospect, where 34 RC holes and 29 AC holes were drilled, were not in line with original expectations. Consequently, the Company will focus on refining drill targets over new areas that have the size potential to deliver economic resources. Accordingly, a soils geochemistry program targeting geophysical anomalies is planned to commence in the coming weeks. These programs will initially focus on Kookynie, followed by similar works at Leonora. Board Change • Jul 20
