Slide 9: Goschen Central Project – Maiden Drilling Highlights
Goschen Central Project – Maiden Drilling Highlights • Multiple high grade intersections 5-10% THM • Large mineralised footprint delineated For personal use only • Initial mineralogy reports exceptional grades: - >93% HMS assemblage considered ‘valuable’ - High value Zircon and Monazite grades well
Slide 10: Global Sea Level
Global Sea Level • Sea level estimate from the last 9ma based For personal use only on Oxygen isotope data from Miller et al. 2005. • Peak estimate above current levels ~ 50m. • Doesn’t account for current RL seen in Murray Basin mineral sands deposits. • Goschen Central sits at ~100m RL. • There mu
Slide 11: Australia is Headed North and Tilting
Australia is Headed North and Tilting From Sandiford 2007; For personal use only • Australia is tilting (to the north) along an axis from approximately Merimbula to Port Hedland. • This is due to the collision with the Pacific plate to the north. • Some of this effect is apparent in the Murray Basin

Slide 17: Energy Reduction as we Increase Angle
For personal use only Energy Reduction as we Increase Angle cos15 = 0.966 cos30 = 0.866 cos45 = 0.707 Wave energy decreases as we increase angle from the prevailing swell direction. 30% decrease in wave energy at 30 degrees from prevailing swell direction. 17 ACDC Metals Presentation | June 2023
Slide 18: How does Goschen central fit in?
How does Goschen central fit in? • SRTM digital terrain model flooded to 100m. • EL005278 is situated in a ‘pocket’ at the edge of the Murravian gulf. For personal use only 18 ACDC Metals Presentation | June 2023
Slide 19: Deposit formation model
For personal use only Deposit formation model • Long wavelength swells from the Southern ocean hit the Murray Gulf and increase in amplitude. • These high energy swells entered the Murravian Gulf at ~040 degrees. • Most of the strandline mineral sands projects sit +-15 degrees from 040. • Goschen Ce

For personal use only Goschen Central Concentration Mechanism 22 ACDC Metals Presentation | June 2023
Slide 23: Why do we have exceptional mineralogy?
For personal use only Why do we have exceptional mineralogy? 1. Proximity to source rocks. Deposit area underlain by Devonian grantitic plutons (Gretgrix, Cannie, Toort). 2. High value mineralogy within the source rocks (Monazite, Zircon, Rutile). 3. A trap position sitting at the edge of the basin
