ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 1 September 2025
Star of Mangaroon Shines Gold Including 7m @ 46.7 g/t Au
HIGHLIGHTS
• Assays have been received from an additional 16 infill holes (1,198m) on the northern and southern sections of the
Star of Mangaroon. These have returned shallow, thick, high-grade intercepts including:
•
SOMRC073: 7m @ 46.7 g/t Au from 27m, incl. 2m @ 103.8 g/t Au from 28m
•
SOMRC078: 12m @ 20.6 g/t Au from 3m, incl. 2m @ 112.9 g/t Au from 6m
•
SOMRC077: 3m @ 65.1 g/t Au from 93m, incl. 1m @ 162.8 g/t Au from 94m
•
SOMRC070: 6m @ 17.6 g/t Au from 66m, incl. 1m @ 98.2 g/t Au from 70m
• These results are in addition to other recent infill drill results from Star of Mangaroon including:
•
SOMRC062: 8m @ 16.2 g/t Au from 20m, incl. 3m @ 32.2 g/t Au from 20m
•
SOMRC060: 4m @ 15.0 g/t Au from 72m, incl. 2m @ 29.3 g/t Au from 72m
•
SOMRC056: 6m @ 3.8 g/t Au from 8m, incl. 1m @ 14.8 g/t Au from 9m
• Being shallow and high-grade, these results are expected to have a material, positive impact on both the Resource
23,300oz (56,600t @ 12.8 g/t Au), mine plan and project economics. Assays for the remaining 14 holes at Star of
Mangaroon are expected in September 2025. An upgraded Resource, mine plan and study will then be completed
as soon as possible.
• The next RC drilling program at Mangaroon Au will commence in early September 2025.
Dreadnought Resources Ltd (“Dreadnought”) is pleased to announce assays from RC drilling
at the Mangaroon Gold Project (“Mangaroon”), in the Gascoyne region of WA.
Dreadnought’s Managing Director, Dean Tuck, commented: “Infill drilling has delivered stand out results from the Star of
Mangaroon. These results are expected to positively impact on the current Resource, mine plan and project economics. Drilling
is set to commence in early September 2025 and will now involve additional drilling at the Star of Mangaroon in addition to
follow up on encouraging results from Steve’s Reward and Lesgo and testing new targets”

Infill Drilling – Star of Mangaroon (100%)
(First right to negotiate development with Black Cat Syndicate Ltd)
The overall infill program comprises 37 RC holes (2,894m) and 4 diamond holes (308m) and brings drilling to a 10m
x 10m spacing within and around the current Resource (ASX 27 November 2024). All of the 41 holes intersected the target
lode horizon. The current Resource is already 23,300oz (56,600t @ 12.8 g/t Au) and 83% Indicated. On just the
shallow, high-grade results to date, a material positive upgrade to the Resource and ultimately project economics (ASX
28 January 2025) is expected.
Assays have been received for the first 23 of the 37 RC holes and include:
•
SOMRC073: 7m @ 46.7 g/t Au from 27m, incl. 2m @ 103.8 g/t Au from 28m
•
SOMRC078: 12m @ 20.6 g/t Au from 3m, incl. 2m @ 112.9 g/t Au from 6m
•
SOMRC077: 3m @ 65.1 g/t Au from 93m, incl. 1m @ 162.8 g/t Au from 94m
•
SOMRC070: 6m @ 17.6 g/t Au from 66m, incl. 1m @ 98.2 g/t Au from 70m
•
SOMRC062: 8m @ 16.2 g/t Au from 20m, incl. 3m @ 32.2 g/t Au from 20m
•
SOMRC060: 4m @ 15.0 g/t Au from 72m, incl. 2m @ 29.3 g/t Au from 72m
•
SOMRC056: 6m @ 3.8 g/t Au from 8m, incl. 1m @ 14.8 g/t Au from 9m
These
results
have
produced thick, highgrade mineralisation in
the northern section of
the Star of Mangaroon
including
in
areas
previously thought to be
mined out, as well as the
southernmost line of
drilling. Mineralisation at
the Star of Mangaroon
remains open to the
north, and at depth.
Given the results to date,
some additional holes are
planned to test the Star of
Mangaroon at depth and
to the north.
Results for the remaining
drill holes are expected in
September 2025.

Snapshot – Mangaroon Gold (100%)
Mangaroon Gold is Large Scale
•
Mangaroon covers ~5,000kms2 with an initial focus on the gold system situated over the Mangaroon Shear Zone
between the crustal scale Minga Bar and Edmund Faults with multiple phases of intrusions. Numerous historical
workings along the Mangaroon Shear Zone have only seen limited drilling. This area also contains the ~12km x
6km Bordah and ~50km long High Range prospects where limited previous exploration has identified outcropping
gold and base metal mineralisation.
Self-Funded Explorer Strategy
•
Dreadnought’s strategy is to transform into a self-funded explorer. This involves a high-grade open pit at the Star
of Mangaroon where funding, development, haulage & processing are outsourced to third parties. This is a
common model in WA given the robust gold price. In this way, there is reduced reliance on market funding and
internal cashflows are aimed at making life-changing discoveries.
Consolidation Provides for First Ever Modern Exploration
•
All historical workings and known gold occurrences relate to outcropping mineralisation. There has been minimal
historical and modern exploration due to fractured, small-scale ownership with Dreadnought now undertaking
modern exploration for the first time.
Significant, Step-change, Growth Potential
•
Five historical mines developed on outcropping mineralisation and dozens of gold occurrences along highly
prospective structural corridors.
•
Dreadnought is deploying modern geochemical and geophysical techniques to explore for mineralisation under
shallow cover. These techniques have already generated new prospects with stronger and larger signatures than
the historical mines, including the region’s largest high-grade producer at the Star of Mangaroon mine.
•
Project-wide stream sediment sampling and geophysical surveys have identified additional camp scale prospects
at Bordah and High Range.
Shallow, High-grade Gold
•
The initial Resource at Star of Mangaroon contains shallow, high-grade gold as per Table 1 below:

Exceptional Metallurgical Recoveries
•
The region is known for its free gold. Accordingly, metallurgical work at Star of Mangaroon produced exceptional
recoveries from standard gravity and carbon in leach circuits averaging 96.7% combined recovery including an
average 74.4% gravity recovery (ASX 14 Oct 2024).

Mangaroon Project
Mangaroon covers ~5,000kms2 and is located 250kms south-east of
Exmouth in the Gascoyne Region of WA. Since 2020, Dreadnought has
identified three major focus areas within the Mangaroon Project:
Mangaroon Gold (100%)
Outcropping gold mineralisation was first identified and mined at
Mangaroon by local pastoralists and prospectors in the 1960s and has
seen no modern gold exploration. Dreadnought has consolidated this
gold field and is undertaking the first modern exploration across the
region which has identified five camp scale gold opportunities at
Bordah, High Range, Alma, Minga Bar and Star of Mangaroon.
In addition, the project contains granted mining leases that provide an
opportunity for cashflow including the Star of Mangaroon Mine where
Dreadnought has delivered a 23,400 oz Resource at 12.8g/t Au (84%
Indicated)
Gifford Creek Critical Metals (100%)
Dreadnought discovered the Yin Ironstones and the Gifford Creek
Carbonatite in 2021. Since then, the Gifford Creek Carbonatite
Complex has emerged as a globally significant, rapidly growing,
potential source of critical minerals. Highlights include:
• Discovery of the Yin REE Ironstone Complex and delivery of a
30.0Mt @ 1.04% TREO Resource over only ~4.6kms – including a
Measured and Indicated Resource of 26.3Mt @ 1.04% TREO (ASX
30 Nov 2023).
• Discovery of the globally significant, Nb-REE-P-Ti-Sc enriched
Gifford Creek Carbonatite (ASX 7 Aug 2023).
• Delivery of a large, independent initial Resource of 10.8Mt @ 1.00% TREO at the Gifford Creek Carbonatites, containing a range
of critical minerals including rare earths, niobium, phosphate, titanium and scandium (ASX 28 Aug 2023).
• Discovery of Stinger Nb-REE-P-Ti-Sc-Zr bearing carbonatite and delivery of the Stinger Niobium Exploration Target (ASX 3 Mar
2025).
Money Intrusion Ni-Cu-PGEs (Teck Earn-In)
The Money Intrusion is a ~45km long mafic intrusion prospective for Ni-Cu-PGE massive sulphides. In 2023, Dreadnought discovered
high tenor nickel-copper massive sulphides confirming the potential of this new system. Dreadnought entered in to a $15M Farm-In
and Joint Venture agreement with Teck Resources, a leading Canadian resource company, to earn up to 75% of the Money Intrusion
tenements.
Illaara Gold Project (100%)
Illaara is located ~190km northwest of Kalgoorlie in the Yilgarn Craton. The project comprises ~800km2 covering ~70km of strike
along the Illaara greenstone belts. Illaara was acquired off Newmont in 2019 as an early stage exploration project prospective for
typical Archean mesothermal lode gold deposits. Dreadnought has delivered a 14,900 oz @ 6.8g/t Au Resource at Metzke’s Find
(72% Indicated). Prior to consolidation by Dreadnought, Illaara was predominantly held by iron ore explorers and remains highly
prospective for iron ore amongst other commodities.
Kimberley Cu-Au-Sb Project (Tarraji 80% / Yampi 100%)
Tarraji-Yampi covers ~420km2 is located only 85kms from Derby in the West Kimberley region of WA and was locked up as a
Defence Reserve since 1978. The project has outcropping mineralisation and historical workings which have seen no modern
exploration.
In 2021, Dreadnought discovered high grade Cu-Au massive sulphides at Orion with results to date indicating a large scale,
Proterozoic Cu-Au VMS system at Tarraji-Yampi, similar to DeGrussa and Monty in the Bryah Basin.
In addition, the project contains outcropping high-grade Cu-Ag-Sb-Bi Veins at Rough Triangle and Grant’s Find.

JORC Code explanation
Commentary
Sampling techniques
•
Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling was undertaken to produce
samples for assay.
•
•
•
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random
chips, or specific specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under
investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or
handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should
not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample
representivity and the appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are
Material to the Public Report.
In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this
would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling
was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was
pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In
other cases more explanation may be required, such as
where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling
problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types
(e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of
detailed information.
RC Drilling
Two sampling techniques were utilised for the RC drilling, 1m
metre splits directly from the rig sampling system for each
metre and 3m composite sampling from spoil piles. Samples
submitted to the laboratory were determined by the site
geologist.
1m Splits
From every metre drilled a 2-3kg sample (split) was subsampled into a calico bag via a Metzke cone splitter from each
metre of drilling.
3m Composites
All remaining spoil from the sampling system was collected in
buckets from the sampling system and neatly deposited in
rows adjacent to the rig. An aluminium scoop was used to
then sub-sample each spoil pile to create a 2-3kg 3m
composite sample in a calico bag.
A pXRF is used on site to help determine mineralised samples.
Mineralised intervals have the 1m split collected, while
unmineralised samples have 3m composites collected.
All samples are submitted to ALS Laboratories in Perth for
determination of gold by Photon assay from crushed sample
(ALS Method Au-PA01).
Select samples are also submitted for 48 multi-elements via 4
acid digestion with MS/ICP finish (ALS Code ME-MS61) to
assist with lithological interpretation.
QAQC samples consisting of duplicates, blanks and CRM’s
(OREAS Standards) are inserted through the program at a
rate of 1:50 samples.
Drilling techniques
Drill sample recovery
•
•
•
•
Logging
•
•
•
Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer,
rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc.) and details (e.g.
core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond
tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is
oriented and if so, by what method, etc.).
Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample
recoveries and results assessed.
Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure
representative nature of the samples.
Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery
and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred
due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.
Whether core and chip samples have been geologically
and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support
appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies
and metallurgical studies.
Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature.
Core (or costean, channel, etc.) photography.
The total length and percentage of the relevant
intersections logged.
RC Drilling
Drilling was completed by Precision Exploration Drilling
(PXD) utilising a KWL 350 truck mounted drill rig with
additional air from an auxiliary compressor and booster. Bit
size was 5¾“.
RC Drilling
Drilling was undertaken using a ‘best practice’ approach to
achieve maximum sample recovery and quality through the
mineralised zones.
Best practice sampling procedure included: suitable usage of
dust suppression, suitable shroud, lifting off bottom between
each metre, cleaning of sampling equipment, ensuring a dry
sample and suitable supervision by the supervising geologist
to ensure good sample quality.
RC Drilling
RC chips were logged under the supervision of a Senior
Geologist with sufficient experience in this geological terrane
and relevant styles of mineralisation using an industry standard
