Samso Insight Episode 100: As we progress to a world of clean energy and a No Emission life, the hard path of implementation begins. The hard part of all the conversations about decarbonisation and a perfect world of less carbon, less emission to no carbon and no emission is the implementation of some real world details. In this episode we have Matthew Bowen and Adel van der Walt from Jackson McDonald and Joe Wyder from DMIRS speaking with Tony Goode. Matthew and Adel share with us their experience in a sector which seems to be a world of smoke and mirrors. The average citizen of the world always has an opinion they want to express about the clean world. However, as you take the conversation further, they seem to lack an understanding of how that will work in practice. When we talk about the mining sector, there are so many parameters that need to be considered. Most importantly, we mustn't forget that mining is a business after all, and if there are no profits, then there will be no mining. This discussion is all about how we are going to have clean energy for mining and how all proponents of this industry must work together to have best practice. There are some real working examples of cleaner energy which we discuss in today's Insights, and you can see it in the images below. King Island and Rottnest Island are prime examples of how important hybrid power systems are to the clean energy process. One interesting message that came from this episode is that clean mining will consume more energy. People who want clean mining need to understand that to achieve the clean power world, there is a need for more mining. More clean mining means more energy will be consumed.

Rooster Talk Episode 64 is with Don Smith, Managing Director, Tempest Minerals Limited (ASX:TEM) and Iain Macpherson, CEO of Lole Mining Limited. Tempest Minerals is now moving into a production space with what looks like a project that I am vaguely familiar with. I came across this project almost 10 years ago during my travels in this industry. It was in private hands at that time, and it definitely had the credentials to perk my interest. The transaction is still far from being complete as there are still several steps to go. Assuming all goes well, the inclusion of Tolukuma will add significant value for shareholders as Tempest moves to become a producer. I don't think that the company is making any proclamations that this will be an easy path. In this episode of Rooster Talk, Don Smith and Iain Macpherson share with us the motivation of Tempest to take on the Tolukuma mine which was historically mined for gold and silver. Iain Macpherson, who is the CEO of Lole Mining Limited has experience in Africa and he accepts the challenging times ahead. Papua New Guinea is not a place for the faint-hearted but it is also a place for that elusive pot of gold if you get all your ducks in a row. The focus now for Tempest is to get the transaction completed and then work on the non-JORC resource in the mine. According to Iain, the establishment of these resources could see the mine back in action and pouring gold within 12 months. Chapters 00:00 Start 00:20 Introduction 01:02 Don updates us on the acquisition story. 01:37 Iain updates on the PNG projects. 03:04 Comparing Tolukuma and other PNG projects. 04:45 Is Tolukuma the main Non-Highland style of mineralisation? 06:46 What are the risks of PNG? 08:10 All about the Non-JORC resource. 10:08 Tolukuma Structures and the Penck projects. 10:29 Tolukuma Mine. 11:17 Mt Penck Projects. 12:35 How do investors look at Tempest Minerals now? 13:51 What are the next steps after the acquisition? 14:32 Iain explains what this means for Tempest. 15:27 When could cashflow happen? 16:33 What is happening at Yalgoo? 17:08 Newsflow. 17:52 Last words. 18:41 Conclusions About Don Smith Managing Director Don is a geologist and entrepreneur with over 20 years in the mining industry. He has worked in operational, development, exploration and consultant roles for junior through to multinational firms spanning over 10 countries and numerous commodities including base and precious metals and energy minerals. Don’s corporate experience includes project acquisition, financing and development and company management. Don has been the founding director of a number of private and public resource companies including the successful listings on the ASX of Platypus Resources and Alderan Resources. He is currently involved with several start-ups and consults to the industry. Don has a Bachelor of Science from Newcastle University and a Master of Business Administration from the Australian Institute of Business. Don is also a member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and a member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists. About Tempest Minerals Ltd (ASX:TEM) The Company listed via initial public offering (IPO) in 2017 under the name Lithium Consolidated Mineral Exploration Limited (Li3) with the goal of feeding the rapidly growing battery mineral industry. Li3 went on to acquire multiple lithium projects on 3 continents and had a string of successful exploration and divestment transactions. In 2019, faced with a challenging lithium market, the board decided to expand the strategic focus of the company into a more diversified direction and began looking at other commodities such as copper. At the end of 2019, Li3 acquired private exploration company Warrigal Mining and have subsequently continued developing an exciting portfolio of precious and base metals projects in Western Australia to complement the existing energy metal projects. In August 2020, shareholders elected to rebrand the company to Tempest Minerals Ltd to better reflect the evolved business and its more diverse commodity focus. About Lole Mining Ltd Lole Mining Limited is an unlisted public Papua New Guinea company registered in Australia with a number of emerging mineral exploration and development opportunities. Lole has rights to three significant gold (+ silver and copper) projects in PNG.

Samso Insight Episode 97: This episode is a general discussion on how politics and mining are interbedded in conversations. One of the most important factors about investing in the mineral resource sector is understanding what the macro instruments are doing and how they will affect your investments. For example, Tony Goode, Founder of Tonash Global gave us a good (long) discussion of what will ultimately be the cost that the industry will take on with the onset of policies that will create bureaucracy hurdles which ultimately mean more cost and headaches to the industry. This episode is a good change of pace from our technical discussions. This is a discussion which will invariably create more questions than answers. This is the very reason I invited Tony to come and share his thoughts. As we all know, when investing in any sector or industry, we have to look at all aspects that will affect the earning and capital appreciation of the product. This episode gives viewers a good understanding of what those factors may be in reality. Chapters 00:00 Start 00:20 Introduction 01:12 All about Tony Goode. 03:08 The factors affecting mining investments. 10:03 The cost of ESG. 22:30 How can investors digest the need to go the way of clean energy? 26:19 How much influence do politicians have on investments when they speak? 28:49 Can Australia play the Nationalism card to protect our critical metals? 32:15 The changing geopolitical boundary could be positive for the mining industry. 33:48 Last words from Tony Goode. 36:21 Conclusion PODCAST Discover more on our Exploration Discovery series.

Listen to Samso on Mining HQ Podcasts Ep.23 Noel explains the process of how an IPO works for a start-up mining company to eventually listing on the ASX. We are seeing a busy period for IPOs (Initial Public Offering). Noel talks about what makes a good IPO, and the factors involved. He also shares about how important pre-IPO investors are. It has been two very busy years for IPO. Noel thinks there has been nearly 100 IPOs in 2021 and we are now at 62 (September 2022). Noel personally has been involved with two, one currently and several indirectly. It is never a simple process and always hard work. Factors to discuss Good projects Market Sentiment Commodity Strong conceptual Exploration strategy Not over priced projects Cornerstone investor You need an investor group or an investor who believes you. The strength of the IPO usually comes out of this group of investors. The strength of the company post listing comes out of this group of investors as well. Supportive Pre IPO Investors A pre-IPO group of investors that support the story of the company is the next critical step. Good story telling process The concept or the story of the IPO is something that is going to drive the reasons for all investors. The story will be a combination of the project, as in how good it is etc and backing the management. They are proven players, they have the incentive, they have the skill to do it. Market sentiment helps. This will be obvious factor. Although Noel does find that there is support for IPOs that look at upcoming trends. Market sentiment or flavour helps immensely. Noel is currently involved in an IPO, getting their prospectus live, with projects in South Australia and WA, and they are looking at a mineral system in South Australia that is unknown and could be very big. Exciting times are ahead.

Rooster Talk Episode 63 with Allan Kelly, Executive Chair of Miramar Resources Limited (ASX: M2R) is an update on Gidji, Glandore and Whaleshark. Every episode I do with Allan Kelly is full of information. This episode is no different. It is insightful and clearly lays out why Miramar Resources Limited has an enormous potential. The timing of this discussion cannot be more perfect. In the last conversation with Allan, we spoke about why Gidji must be considered as a new mining camp. Imagine being only 5 minutes drive from the town of Kalgoorlie. To top that off, it is bounded to the surroundings by Kundana, Mount Pleasant-Paddington, Kanowna Belle, Bardoc Shear to the north and the super pit to the south (Figure 1). Figure 1: Regional Map of the Miramar Eastern Goldfields projects. (Source: Miramar Resources Limited) Allan is not professing that he has a million ounce project in Gidji. However, what he can say is that the potential for Gidji is growing, going by the drilling program. When you look at the geological data, one has to agree with Allan's interpretation. As a geologist, what I can sense is a growing level of frustration of no assays. For an exploration company, the most frustrating part is lack of money and a lack of drilling success. In the case of Miramar Resources, it appears that the funding part has been ticked. The exploration success is abundant but the lack of assays is at critical level. I can see that Allan is almost drilling blind but fortunately for Miramar, the previous consistent success may be the light to follow. This is the critical conversation in today´s episode. Take time to listen to how Allan breaks down the projects, and what they are doing at Gidji. The Gidji potential story mirrors what Kalgoorlie was before gold was discovered. The focus may have been on Gidji but the discussion then moves onto Glandore and Whaleshark. The conversation is almost fifty minutes and packed with noteworthy insights. I encourage viewers to make a nice brew and take some notes. Chapters 00:00 Start 00:20 Introduction 01:16 Allan updates. 02:22 Good results in bedrock geology. 04:27 What are the challenges from the bedrock geology? 07:09 How close is M2R vectoring to the primary source? 09:55 Raglan talks about Dolerites. 10:37 Where could the lagging results sit in the scheme of your project? 11:07 Consistent mineralisation results at the supergene level. 11:24 An important Ingredient is Competency Contrast in Geology - A Lesson. 12:32 Discussion on Blackfriars prospect. 13:17 Discussion on Highway prospect. 14:13 Blackfriars may be the better prospect. 15:01 Blackfriars and Highway are awaiting assays. 15:54 How is the lack ofcompete assays affecting the geological models? 17:18 Discussion on the Boorara North prospect. 19:09 Discussion on Lake prospect. 19:55 Discussion on Gidji Dam. 20:51 How much understanding does M2R have on the geology and structure? 23:51 The amazing thought that Gidji is unexplored. 25:50 The positives of Gidji. 27:06 Could 8th Mile be a "Red Herring" ? 29:41 Nickel Prospectivity. 32:25 The other Miramar projects. 32:52 Discussion on the Glandore project. 36:07 Discussion on Whaleshark project. 37:26 The model for Whaleshark - Ernest Henry. 38:46 How should investors look at M2R now? 39:23 The target for Gidji. 39:59 The target for Glandore. 41:08 The target for Whaleshark. 41:44 Miramar is undervalued. 43:09 Gidji as a blank canvas. 45:04 Conclusions. PODCAST About Allan Kelly Executive Chairman Mr. Kelly is a geologist and manager with over 25 years’ experience in mineral exploration, development and production throughout Australia and the Americas. Mr. Kelly graduated in 1994 with a Bachelor of Science (with honours) in Applied Geology from Curtin University.

Samso on Mining HQ Podcasts Ep.22 - start 00:26 The whole meaning of sustainable mining is kind of contradictory as what we take out of the ground is not going to be generated and all mining has an environmental impact. We all know that the statement I have just made is merely a statement of the obvious. As a mining community, it has always been about having the least amount of footprint and the least amount of environmental impact. The concept of lowering environmental impact has been around for decades. This is not a new phenomenon and listeners should take note that proponents of the mining industry are always looking for ways to mine in a compliant manner. It is now good for business to be known as a master of green mining. In my opinion, the measure of being sustainable and being environmentally compliant is the hard path. As I described earlier, it is difficult to get all those ducks in a row and keep them in that row.

Coffee with Samso 149 is with Don Smith, Managing Director of Tempest Minerals Limited (ASX:TEM) and it is all about the new findings for the Meleya project. Mineral Exploration is all about patience. Tempest has a very interesting project in Meleya. In my opinion, the discovery is a proof of concept. The geology looks fertile, the structure is observed in the core and the geology is consistent with mineralisation. What I like about the whole concept is that the desktop observation now has two drill holes. The assays may not have been mind boggling but when has mineral exploration been one that hits the mark on the very first go? Investors need to remember that this is a grassroots project. This is why they got the funding from the government. I feel the injustice is that the market in all its buoyancy has created expectations that are hard to meet. The market is looking for big numbers but what the market has missed is that the geology has shown that their interpretation was spot on. What the market sees as a negative is, in fact, a big positive. This is the classic case of missing the King in the peasant clothing and admiring the nobleman in the golden robe. As an exploration geologist, our goals are never aligned with the aspirations of the share price. When I saw the core in the core shed, what I saw was alteration and lots of geology that could host mineralisation. In this episode of Coffee with Samso, we hear the frustration of a Managing Director and that of a geologist. That is also coupled with the optimism that they have now proven their concept and that the mineralising fluids do exist. Chapters: 00:00 Start 00:20 Introduction 00:50 Don updates. 01:31 Mineral Exploration is a long game. 02:02 Visual Estimate mandate. 02:22 The Meleya Story - Lessons learnt. 04:10 Molybdenum and the potential of Meleya. 06:26 What is Tempest thinking about now? 08:30 Have the current lessons helped the regional exploration strategy? 09:21 How can investors consume current exploration strategy? 11:19 Exploration is about search and discovery. 11:44 Other projects. 13:02 How has the market been treating Tempest? 14:12 Placement was done with good timing. 14:27 News Flow. 14:56 Exploration is status quo. Why TEM? 16:06 Last words from Don. 16:19 Conclusion About Don Smith Managing Director Don is a geologist and entrepreneur with over 20 years in the mining industry. He has worked in operational, development, exploration and consultant roles for junior through to multinational firms spanning over 10 countries and numerous commodities including base and precious metals and energy minerals.

Rooster Talk Episode 61 is with Matthew Boyes, Managing Director of Red Dirt Metals Limited (ASX: RDT). The Mt Ida project is fast becoming a double bonus for Red Dirt Metals as exploration is unveiling the gold credits. When we were first introduced to the Mt. Ida project (Red Dirt Metals Limited (ASX:RDT) - A Lithium Gem within a Gold Mine.) in April 2022, we were just trying to understand the lithium potential. As the market was having a lithium boom, it would be foolish not to discuss what the flavour of the last two years has been. As we were talking through that Coffee with Samso with Matt Boyes, I was really interested in the gold potential. The Mt Ida story is very similar to what occurred at Mt. Holland a few years ago. For those that have not heard the story, Mt Holland was all about the discovery of a lithium bonanza because of a phone call. Mt. Holland was a legitimate gold mining project but was later discovered to be an even greater lithium project. When you hear Matt talk about the lithium prospectivity in Mt. Ida, you can hear the frustration of not being able to rush into the gold project. The potential is yet to be finalised. In saying that, you can also feel the frustration of not being able to unwrap the potential of the lithium prospectivity. The fact that there is still a large package of landholding that the company has not explored is definitely high on the list of things to do. Matt is certain that there will be a resource coming out for the lithium and in time, there will be a gold resource to be released as well. When that will be is the million dollar question. Check out this video - this is definitely a good story to follow. Chapters: 00:00 Start. 00:20 Introduction. 01:07 Matthew updates. 02:38 Relationship between Gold and Lithium. 03:56 Mineralisation of Lithium and Gold. 06:41 Announcement key points for investors. 08:18 Understanding the geology from the announcement. 10:35 Future plans for the project. 11:59 Lithium market discussion. 15:24 Updates on covering the entire tenement package. 16:57 Potential focus on Gold. 19:49 Exploration potential. 21:32 Matthew summarises the news flow. 22:54 Conclusions. PODCAST This is a good time to download the first Ebook (FREE) from Samso as it is all about VMS (Volcanogenic Massive Sulfides). About Matthew Boyes Managing Director Mr Boyes is a qualified Geologist and Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy with 25 years industry experience and a strong background in minerals resources, project development, construction and operations management.

About Red Dirt Metals Limited (ASX: RDT) Red Dirt is focused on the development and evaluation of underexplored brownfields exploration assets in Western Australia. Mt Ida Gold Pty Ltd is the holding company of the Mt Ida Gold Project, comprising 19 tenements in the historical Mt Ida gold mining district, located approximately 100km north-west of Menzies in the WA goldfields. The project tenements cover an area of 155km2 and include the historic Timoni Gold Mine and others, which have produced greater than 300,000 oz gold at 17.2 g/t head grade. Highlights: Acquired from Ora Banda Mining in September 2021 for $11M cash A current gold resource of 318,000 t @13.8g/t gold for 141koz calculated under the JORC 2004 guidelines Evidence of occurrences of Lithium-bearing pegmatites with Tantalum Exploration activities to commence immediately October 2021 The Mt Ida project has total resources of 318,000 t @13.8g/t of gold for 141koz, Indicated resources total 136,000t @ 18.6 g/t gold for 81koz with 182,000t @ 10.3 g/t gold for 60koz in Inferred category. All resource currently stated at Mt Ida are calculated under the JORC 2004 guidelines with no material change to the existing resources since estimation. Lithium Review: Whilst undertaking the technical due diligence of the Mt Ida Project, it was noted that multiple high-grade lithium intervals had been intersected within pegmatite bodies on the western contact of the main Mt Ida granite intrusive, known as the Copperfield Granite. Initial investigations from available data shows pegmatite outcropping in 5 separate locations proximal to the main granitic intrusive, and along the contact with the western bounding mafic amphibolite units which host the high-grade Mt Ida gold copper lodes. A preliminary target corridor has been interpreted and extends for up to 5 km in strike from the most southern-identified outcrop parallel to the granite and north into the Company’s adjacent exploration tenement, with potential to extend further in both directions. Of significance is that no historic exploration has been carried out with the intention of targeting these Lithium bearing pegmatite intrusives. This opens up large areas on both the eastern and western limbs of the granitic intrusive contacts for future exploration and will complement the Company’s aggressive gold/copper exploration program at the Mt Ida Project.

Rooster Talk Episode 59 is with Andrew Paterson, Managing Director of Great Boulder Resources Limited (ASX: GBR) This is an update on the Side Well Project which is about the recent drilling results with the discovery of new mineralisation at Ironbark. Great Boulder Resources appear to have a mineralised province with Side Well as the system that is producing metals in Ironbark, which is distinctly different to what is happening at Mulga Bill. Andrew shares with us why this appears to be the case. Ironbark is 1.4km to the east of Mulga Bill. The drilling results may be showing that there is a series of potential pods of mineralisation which will help the overall picture of potential for Side Well. An intercept of 20m @ 3.05 g/t of gold should not be ignored. In any project, this is a clear indication of mineralisation that is not isolated. In my opinion, the discovery of these kinds of drill intercepts may be an early indication of a level of gold endowment which would excite any company. The excitement stems from the fact that it is within a province that has already shown continuous mineralisation at Mulga Bill. If you are isolated without Mulga Bill, it would make sense to question the potential. However, if you are in a decent system, you would expect numerous deposits nearby. What is interesting with the results coming out from the announcements is that there is a clear horizon where the gold is being identified. It is still early to make a decision of the future potential, but it is looking promising. The presence of copper at Mulga Bill and the lack of copper (currently) at Ironbark is determining the perception of difference at Side Well. It is this that should be noted for audiences. Chapters: 00:00 Start 00:20 Introduction 00:55 Andrew updates on Great Boulder Resources Limited. 01:24 Is Ironbark similar to Mulga Bill? 02:50 Will the Ironbark mineralisation be a similar system to Mulga Bill? 03:24 Geologically, can multi systems exist in a similar area? 05:44 Is multi system a good thing for Side Well? 07:00 Is the copper in Mulga Bill significant? 08:40 Is Great Boulder Resources feeling like Side Well will be a Mine? 10:28 Will Mulga Bill be a series of pits along strike? 11:29 Is the copper a good or a bad thing for the project? 13:32 Mineralisation seems to happen in the same horizon. 14:31 Is IP the holy grail for Great Boulder? 16:27 Is geophysics being used more today than 20 years ago? 17:34 News flow for Great Boulder Resources Limited. 19:45 What does Andrew think of the current market sentiment? 22:37 Why this is a good time to look at good companies. 23:24 Andrew's last words. 23:46 Conclusions PODCAST About Andrew Paterson Andrew is a geologist with over 25 years’ experience in mining and exploration in Australia and PNG.

Client Testimonial from Alex Biggs, Managing Director of Critical Resources Limited (ASX:CRR) For Alex Biggs, having the time to ease into an in-depth conversation on Coffee with Samso allows shareholders to gain a proper understanding of the company. Alex Biggs: "I decided to do Coffee with Samso because Noel's technical background provides relevant questions that really allow viewers to get a technical behind-the-scenes view of the company and projects in a long-form format. It was a very enjoyable, relaxing environment, and that means there is time to discuss the company and projects in depth. It also allowed us to clearly tell the company's narrative and strategy in depth. I feel that it allowed our shareholders and potential shareholders to gain a real understanding of the business and get to know me a bit more as well. I think the Coffee with Samso concept is very relevant because social media and media content is getting shorter so a long-form format is the exception, that's why it stands out. Coffee with Samso is something I would 100% recommend to my associates."
