Ida Holmes Junction

Overview

The Ida Holmes Project is located ~50km to the southwest of Gold Fields’ Agnew Gold Project and centered on the intersection of the Holmes Dyke and the Mt Ida Fault. In total, the project comprises 18 exploration tenements, with a total area of 1,300km2.

The Ida Holmes Project is located near two Tier 1 world-class nickel projects operated by BHP (ASX:BHP), the Leinster and Mt Keith operations, along with several 2Moz+ gold operations including the Agnew, Lawlers and Bellevue mining operations.  The Project is also located ~60km north of Delta Lithium’s (ASX:DLI) Mt Ida Lithium Project (12.7Mt @ 1.2% Li2O as of October 2022) and ~90km south of Liontown Resources’ (ASX:LTI) Kathleen Valley Lithium Project (156Mt at 1.4% Li2O as of April 2021).

Recent discovery of high-grade gallium and surface cobalt-copper-nickel-lead-manganese mineralisation provides promising new targets at this exciting project, strengthening Western Yilgarn’s strategic position within the critical minerals sector.

Follow up exploration is planned to include more extensive soil and rock chip sampling programs to further delineate mineralisation.

Gallium Discovery

Surface Gallium has been identified at tenements E36/1020 and E36/1080 which are located ~21 km apart and geochmical analysis has confirmed significant gallium mineralisation.

Rock chip highlights include:

    • 195.5 g/t Ga, 262.79 g/t Ga2O3 in sample 30032
    • 146.0 g/t Ga, 196.25 g/t Ga2O3 in sample 30030
    • 135.5 g/t Ga, 182.14 g/t Ga2O3 in sample 30026
    • 117.5 g/t Ga, 157.94 g/t Ga2O3 in sample 30031

High-grade Cobalt

In September 2025, surface cobalt-copper-nickel-lead-manganese mineralisation at the Ida Holmes Junction Project, providing a promising new target that strengthens the Company’s strategic position within the critical minerals sector.

Rock chip highlights include:

    • 1.68% Co, 0.14% Cu, 0.22% Ni, 0.66% Pb & 9.80% Mn in sample 30017
    • 1.02% Co, 0.18% Cu, 0.41% Ni, 0.55% Pb & 15.1% Mn in sample 30018
    • 1.12% Co, 0.36% Cu, 0.47% Ni, 1.56% Pb & 20.6% Mn in sample 30022

The newly identified zones of high-grade cobalt mineralisation were delineated within Exploration Licences E36/1028. The mineralised system at Ida Holmes Junction remains open in all directions, indicating strong potential for further extensions and discovery.

THE COMPANY

The Company’s new management team recently executed a strategic restructure which included the divestment of international subsidiary projects and acquisition of new, highly prospective land holdings located in some of Australia’s emerging Nickel- PGE-Gold regions.
