Q2 drilling targeting maiden Tin MRE
Regional geology of Palaeo-Mesoproterozoic Mt Painter and Mt Babbage Inliers.
• The Prospect Hill project comprises 75 km2 and
lies on the north-western margin of the
Curnamona Craton, South Australia
• Well-endowed in critical and clean energy
minerals, and geologically similar to nearby
Gawler Craton
• Rich historic dataset includes numerous high-
grade tin intersections along a 500-metre strike at
South Ridge
• Previous drilling also demonstrates presence of
other base metals and high-grade silver
• 2,500m maiden RC program planned for Q2,
targeting maiden MRE
• Project also prospective for sedimentary-hosted
uranium

Heavy Rare Earths Limited | ASX:HRE 7
Prospect Hill Project
Rich dataset acquired includes high-grade South ridge target
Location of South Ridge and other key tin targets at Prospect Hill
• Acquired dataset includes 71 RC holes, 19
percussion holes, 40 trenches, and numerous
soil, stream and rock samples, over 6 main tin
projects
• The most advanced project is South Ridge, a
shear zone hosted system, where drilling
outlined steep-dipping tin mineralisation over
500 metres of strike, up to 120 metres depth and
still open down-dip and along strike
• Notable intersections include
- 3 metres @ 4.85% Sn from 44 metres (PHRC03)
- 5 metres @ 3.32% Sn from 84 metres (PHRC55)
- 6 metres @ 2.33% Sn from 14 metres (PHP-15)
• Also prospective for silver and base metals:
- 1metre @ 282 g/t Ag, 1.87% Cu, 3.48% Zn, 3.16%
Pb, with 2.9% Sn
Heavy Rare Earths Limited | ASX:HRE 8
• South ridge is South Australia’s largest and
most advanced tin project
• Maiden Drilling Program targeting early Q2
to comprise ~20 Reverse Circulation
holes and ~4 diamond holes, for a total
of 2,500m
• Program designed to test extensions to
mineralisation
• Company is anticipating the program will
lead to a maiden JORC Resource
Estimate
• Program will also acquire drill core for
further metallurgical testwork, with initial
studies showing tin is mostly present as
cassiterite which can be recovered by
inexpensive gravity processing.

• Radium Hill Project is located on the southern margin of
Curnamona Province, 90 km southwest of Broken Hill
• Project comprises 55 km2 of highly prospective tenure, that
includes the recently defined 8km-long Critical Minerals
Corridor enriched with Yttrium, Scandium, Rare Earths,
Uranium and Vanadium.
• Is immediately along strike from, and adjacent to, the
historic Radium Hill Mine – Australia’s first uranium mine
• Mine produced 1.9 Mlbs @ 1,170 ppm U3O8 between 1954
and 1961 (though never assayed for Rare Earths, Yttrium or
Scandium)
• HRE recently negotiated Mineral Rights at Radium Hill to
include all minerals, i.e. all critical minerals and precious
and base metals

• Aerial geophysics, historical records, and field follow-up, have
focused on better defining an 8km+ structural zone extending
from Radium Hill in the south to Bonython Hill in the north.
• This structural corridor is along strike from the historic mine,
and is enriched in a variety of critical minerals including
Yttrium, Scandium, Rare Earth Elements, and Vanadium
• Rock samples along this Critical Mineral Corridor test positive
for high grade Scandium (to 959ppm Sc2O3), Yttrium (to
2236ppm Y2O3) and Uranium (to 3597ppm U3O8)
• One target, Railway Prospect, lies just over 100m along strike
from the Radium Hill mine, and returned 0.36% U3O8, 253
ppm Sc2O3, 1.26% TREO (incl. 0.13% Y2O3).
• The recent work strengthens our geological model of Radium
Hill as a critical minerals project, and drilling is planned
subject to permit and consent approvals

• Potential for sediment-hosted uranium upstream and downstream
from Boss Energy’s Gould’s Dam deposit (25 Mlbs U3O8).
• HRE has ~75 km of the Billeroo Palaeochannel’s northern
extension, just 16 km north of Gould’s Dam.
• ~30 m of Eyre Formation sands with lignitic material – the ideal
uranium host, identified in a drillhole in 1972 with no follow-up.
• 30km section of the Billeroo Palaeochannel which has never been
tested by a single drillhole, only 20km “down-channel” from the
Gould’s Dam Deposit
• Widespread passive seismic and gravity survey completed by Atlas
Geophysics with data processed and interpreted by Resource
Potentials (RESPOT) of Perth.
• This was integrated with reprocessed regional mag, gravity and
TEM data to generate a paleogeographic model for drill planning
