New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 25% This is considered a minor 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 (24% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 26% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (25% increase in shares outstanding).

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: AU$88k This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced.

Nico Resources Limited Receives All the Assay Results from the Infill Reverse Circulation Drilling Program Completed in October 2022 At its 100% Owned Wingellina Nickel-Cobalt Project Nico Resources Limited announced that it has received all the assay results from the infill reverse circulation (RC) drilling program completed in October 2022 at its 100% owned Wingellina Nickel-Cobalt Project ("Wingellina" or the "Project") in Western Australia. The program comprised 152 Reverse Circulation ("RC") holes for 7,856m of drilling and was a continuation of work initiated in 2017 to infill 15 high-grade nickel-cobalt domains delineated from the resource model as potential high-grade starter pits. The results confirm the continuity within the identified high-grade nickel and cobalt domains and provides key inputs into future production scheduling. In particular, it is anticipated that sufficient higher-grade tonnage will be available for the initial 10 years further improving the project economics. Assay Highlights: WPRC0758: 74m @ 1.26% Ni and 0.09% Co (1.46% Nieq) from surface; WPRC0759: 86m @ 1.25% Ni and 0.10% Co (1.47% Nieq) from surface; WPRC0760: 90m @ 1.50% Ni and 0.12% Co (1.77% Nieq) from surface; WPRC0761: 70m @ 1.45% Ni and 0.12% Co (1.71% Nieq) from 2m; WPRC0766: 26m @ 1.81% Ni and 0.16% Co (2.16% Nieq) from 2m incl. 8m @ 3.73% Ni from 18m; WPRC0798: 72m @ 1.30% Ni and 0.11% Co (1.54% Nieq) from surface; WPRC0799: 64m @ 1.39% Ni and 0.07% Co (1.55% Nieq) from 2m WPRC0801: 12m @ 1.93% Ni and 0.04% Co (2.02% Nieq) from 26m incl. 4m @ 3.58% Ni from 32m; WPRC0813: 92m @ 1.18% Ni and 0.10% Co (1.39% Nieq) from surface; WPRC0822: 56m @ 1.47% Ni and 0.11% Co (1.70% Nieq) from 4m; WPRC0880: 50m @ 1.68% Ni and 0.08% Co (1.85% Nieq) from surface incl. 10m @ 2.29% Ni from 30m.

NICO Resources Limited Completes Central Musgraves High Grade Drill Program Nico Resources Limited advised that is has recently completed a 10,196m reverse circulation drilling program of works across the Company's Central Musgrave Project in the preeminent Musgrave Province. The Wingellina portion of the drill program focused on improving the definition of the highest-grade nickel and cobalt zones within the entire resource base. This material has been targeted for confirmatory reserve classification to feed into an updated mine schedule for the impending bankable feasibility study. The program delineated 15 high grade starter pits which will form the basis of the first years of production and results in strong project valuation uplift. This recently completed Wingellina high-grade drilling program provided infill drill lines to spacings of 60m by 25m within the 15 proposed starter pits. This is the same drill density which currently supports the JORC Measured category within other portions of the larger deposit. Data obtained will also provide additional orebody knowledge in regard to ore geometry, controls on mineralisation, grades and in turn anticipated mixed hydroxide precipitant grades. The RC drilling program undertaken at the Lewis Calcrete was completed as a follow-up to the 2019 program initiated by Metals X. An additional 302 holes have been completed in this 2022 program resulting in a total of 543 across the area prospective for calcrete. Based on the previous testwork and field acid testing during drilling, along with drill logs indicates calcareous material has been intersected in 301 of the 302 holes drilled. The NiCo technical team believe this material will provide a solid foundation for the development of a maiden resource at the Lewis Calcrete prospect. The program has also delivered over 10 tons of RC chip material for demonstration scale test work required for the definitive feasibility study. Once all data is returned and validated, a resource model update will be completed for the Wingellina deposit. A maiden resource estimate will also be undertaken for the Lewis Calcrete resource. Both estimates are expected to be delivered in early 2023. Associated mine studies will flow on from this work as primary feed inputs to support a Definitive feasibility study commencing in 2023. Project financial and debt modelling to follow shortly after. Reported Earnings • Oct 01

NICO Resources Limited Commences High Grade Delineation Drilling Programme for the Central Musgraves Project NICO Resources Limited announced its maiden high grade production delineation drilling programme for the Central Musgraves Project has commenced. Wingellina high-grade nickel cobalt zones: The Wingellina nickel-cobalt project boasts a JORC 2012 compliant resource base of >200Mt of material grading 0.93% Ni & 0.07% Co and a probable Ore Reserve of 164.8Mt at 0.93% Ni & 0.07% Co for 1.56Mt of contained nickel and 123Kt of contained cobalt. The CMP project area also contains the Claudes Hill project area which contains an additional JORC resource of 33Mt at 0.81% Ni and 0.07% Co. In 2017 Metals X undertook a review of the cobalt inventory of the Wingellina deposit with the aim of investigating higher- grade nickel cobalt domains that could be targeted as a high-grade start-up option. This work resulted in the definition of 15 potential high-grade nickel-cobalt open pits as potential starter pits. Six of these pits were successfully infill-drilled during 2017-18 and a further drilling program was completed on two additional potential starter pits in 2019-2020, successfully confirming the high-grade nickel-cobalt domains. Lewis Calcrete Deposit: The Lewis Calcrete deposit is located within WA, approximately 25km north-west of the Wingellina. The previous Phase 1 Feasibility Study undertaken by Metals X estimated that a total of ~800,000t/year of calcrete/limestone would be required over the life of the Wingellina project for acid neutralisation purposes. The use of calcrete displaces the requirement for lime which will significantly reduce the operating costs as a result of not purchasing nor transporting of lime to site. Initial drill testing of the Lewis Calcrete deposit in 2014 comprised of 89 shallow reconnaissance 100 metre spaced RC holes along a 9km access track with 579 samples submitted for analysis. Test work confirmed good quality calcrete with CaO+MgO+LOI exceeding 70% within 68 of the holes drilled. The calcrete is calcium-rich, with MgO rarely exceeding 2%. The base of the calcrete profile was found to occur at a depth of about 6 metres below surface. Resource definition drilling commenced in late 2020 with the planned program being approximately 50% completed. The program was postponed due to COVID restrictions. Local water sources: Previous drilling by Metals X identified that there is reasonable volumes of water located in the Mann Fault which extends along the Northern boundary of the Wingellina deposit. Water drilling and flow testing conducted in 2015 determined that it was likely that there would be sufficient water available from the Mann fault as minimum to support the construction and commissioning of the process plant. 2022 Exploration RC dilling Programmes: Programme 1: High-Grade Co/Ni delineation - RC Drilling 7,000m: The planned 2022 RC drill programme involves drilling 167 RC holes for approximately 7,000 metres of drilling planned on 177 x 100m spaced infill drill holes. The objective of the 2022 programme is the delineation of a further 8 high-grade Ni-Co pits within the broader Ni-Co deposit to compliment the previous defined high grade pits delineated from 2017-2020 which was interrupted by Covid. All drillholes are located within 5km of the company's exploration base camp. Downhole depths will vary from 12 metres to 102 metres and average about 41 metres. The definition of these high grade pits will provide inputs of the production scheduling into the bankable feasibility study which will result in the processing of much higher grade material within the first 10 years which will enhance the cashflows and further improve the economics. Programme 2: Calcrete Resource delineation RC Drilling 2,700m: The drill programme at the Lewis Calcrete Deposit comprises of 336 shallow vertical holes for a total of 2,700m of RC drilling. The programme hole depths are mainly of 6m, with each 15th hole to be drilled to 18m depth for environmental sampling and monitoring purposes. The drill holes are spaced 100m apart on drill lines. The proposed programme has the objective of completing the drill-out of the accessible outcrop areas. The initialpreliminary resource estimate is anticipated to meet the project demand requirements estimated to be approximately 800,000tpa. The calcrete will substitute the requirement for lime as a pH modifier in the processing of plant. As lime is required to be purchased and transported to site, the calcrete will significantly reduce the operating costs of processing as can substitute a large amount of the lime requirements. The results of this program are expected to be able to define a calcrete resource and will enable the project to quantify and ascertain the continuity of the best quality calcrete within the deposit for HPAL process requirements. Additional calcrete deposits also occur elsewhere and on the tenement that may also be utilised as a source for haul road construction materials for the project. Programme 3: Mann Fault Paleo valley water delineation RC Drilling 300m: Two 190mm diameter holes have been planned to be drilled vertically by RC to a depth of up to 150m to be used as water monitoring bores when future water production mud-rotary bore drilling and pump testing takes place at each of the sites. The drilling purpose is to assess for the presence of significant quantities of water by airlifting while providing information regarding vertical profile lithological variations of the palaeo valley being assessed. The target consists of clay and gravel-filled palaeo valley in a significant east-west trending regional structure that is coincident with the Mann Fault. It is located about 10km north of Wingellina and starts from about 40km to the west of Wingellina within the WA border. This has the potential to supply the operations through the construction and commissioning phases at a significantly reduced capital cost to the early development of the Officer basin.
