Dear Fellow Shareholders,
It is my pleasure to present to you the Annual Report for Lode Resources Ltd (ASX: LDR) for the financial
year ended 30 June 2025. This year has been one of transformation and momentum for our company, as we
have solidified our position as a key player in Australia's critical minerals landscape. In a world increasingly
focused on supply chain security and the energy transition, Lode's portfolio of high-grade antimony, silver,
and gold projects has never been more strategically aligned with global demands.
The past 12 months have seen us execute on our strategy with precision and purpose. A highlight was the
acquisition of the Montezuma Antimony and Silver Project in Tasmania a flagship asset that positions us to
develop one of Australia's highest-grade antimony and silver deposits. This advanced-stage project, with its
rich historical mining legacy and untapped potential, is on track to become Tasmania's first critical metals
mine. We have already advanced metallurgical studies and initiated a comprehensive drilling program, with
early results confirming the high-grade nature of the resource. Coupled with a successful $4.5 million capital
raising in late 2024, we are well-funded to progress towards a Maiden Resource estimate and potentially
pilot production. Antimony's critical role in flame retardants, solar panels, batteries, and semiconductors
underscores the immense value this project could deliver, not just for Lode but for the broader Australian
economy through job creation in North-West Tasmania.
Our exploration efforts in the New England Fold Belt (NEFB) in New South Wales have also yielded exciting
outcomes. At the Webbs Consol Silver Project, our 2025 drilling campaign intersected high-grade silver-zinc
mineralisation including intercepts that highlight a robust and extensive mineral system. The Lode team have
drilled some 12,000m of mostly diamond holes since we started on the project and this culminated with the
declaration of our maiden resource on Webbs Consol. A great result making it one of the highest grade
Silver deposits in Australia.
Work also began at the historic Magwood Antimony Mine in preparation for drilling. Magwood was Australia’s
largest Antimony producer until the 1970’s and was never drilled so this is a very exciting project for
shareholders. Drilling commenced subsequent to the financial year end and we look forward to reporting
these results.
Similarly, the Uralla Gold Project delivered multiple high-grade gold hits, reinforcing the NEFB's status as a
exciting region with significant exploration upside. While we continue to evaluate strategic options for certain
assets, including a divestment at Webbs Consol to unlock value and focus resources, these discoveries
validate our geological model and de-risk our portfolio.
Financially, we maintained a disciplined approach amid volatile commodity markets and exploration
uncertainties. Our cash position at year-end stood strong, supported by the capital raise and prudent
expenditure on high-impact activities. Exploration costs were directed towards value-accretive drilling and
studies, resulting in a lean operation that preserved shareholder capital while advancing our key assets. We
remain committed to transparent governance, as evidenced by our updated Corporate Governance
Statement, which aligns with ASX best practices and reflects our dedication to ethical and sustainable
operations.
Looking ahead, the outlook for Lode is brighter than ever. With escalating demand for critical minerals driven
by geopolitical shifts and technological advancements, we are poised to capitalise on our high-grade,
domestically located projects. In the next 12 months, we anticipate completing the Maiden Resource at
Montezuma, commencing regional exploration in Tasmania and developing our NEFB tenements through
targeted drilling, and exploration. Our experienced team, with over 30 years of combined expertise in
exploration, capital markets, and project delivery, is energised and ready to execute.
None of this would be possible without the unwavering support of our shareholders and stakeholders whose
confidence has been instrumental in our progress. I extend my deepest gratitude to our Board, management,
and exploration team for their tireless dedication, and to you, our investors, for entrusting us with your
capital. Together, we are building a resilient and rewarding future for Lode Resources.
Regards,
Andrew Van Heyst
Executive Chairman.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1 | P a g e
The Directors of Lode Resources Ltd (ASX: LDR or ‘Lode' or ‘the Company') are pleased report that
the Group has achieved significant exploration, resource development and acquisition milestones
during the year-ended 30 June 2025.
Lode's exploration focus is on the highly prospective but under-explored New England Fold Belt in
north-eastern New South Wales and the Montezuma Antimony Project located in Tasmanian’s
premier West Coast Mining Province. The Company has assembled a portfolio of brownfield
precious and base metal assets characterised by:
• 100% ownership;
• Significant historical geochemistry and/or geophysics;
• Under drilled and/or open-ended mineralisation; and
• Demonstrated high-grade mineralisation and/or potential for large mineral occurrences.
This has resulted in a portfolio of assets with diverse mineralisation styles consisting of four core projects of
current focus
1. Montezuma Antimony Project – Located on the west coast of Tasmania, a region well known for mining activity,
the Project consists of a high-grade antimony-silver deposit with initial development, advanced metallurgical test
work and significant beneficiation infrastructure.
2. Uralla Gold – Located 8km west of the Uralla township, this goldfield was one of the earlier goldfields discovered
in NSW and a significant gold producer in the 1850’s. Despite this long history the mineralisation style has only
recently been recognised as being an Intrusive Related Gold System (IRGS) and this has strong implications for this
project’s discovery potential. Lode’s holdings cover over 300 square kilometres.
3. Webbs Consol Silver – Located 16km west-southwest of Emmaville, this historical mining centre is known for high-
grade silver-base metal-bearing lodes that provide attractive targets that were essentially drill-ready. Historical
records of underground sampling indicated high-grade mineralisation remains open at relative shallow depths and
subsequent geophysical anomalies were never followed-up by drilling.
4. New England Antimony Project – Located in one of Australia’s most prolific antimony producing provinces, 19
antimony prospects have already been identified within the Exploration Licences (EL) EL9662 and EL9319, both
controlled 100% by Lode. The project is anchored by the Magwood Mine, discovered in the 1880s and mainly
worked between 1941 and 1970, and was Australia’s primary producer of antimony.
As of 30 June 2025, the Company has an interest in tenements as follows:

During the year-ended 30 June 2025 Lode acquired the Montezuma Antimony-Silver Project, an asset that
underpins and accelerates the company’s growth aims in developing high-grade quality resource projects.
Successful drill campaigns were carried out at both the Webbs Consol Silver Project in NSW and the
Montezuma Antimony-Silver Project in Tasmania. In addition, a Maiden Resource Estimate was announced
for the Webbs Consol Silver Project and all core from historical drilling at the Montezuma Antimony-Silver
Project were relogged and resampled in accordance with JORC 2012 standards. These drill and resampling
campaigns have resulted exceptional results and the maiden resource at Webbs Consol was a substantial
milestone for the company.
Montezuma Antimony-Silver Project
Lode acquired the Montezuma Antimony-Silver Project in located in Tasmania’s premier West Coast Mining
Province during the year. Acquisition terms included:
• $50,000 non-refundable cash deposit pain upon the execution of the HOA ie 22; plus
• $200,000 cash payable on completion of the Proposed Acquisition; plus
• 10,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company at a deemed issue price of $0.10 per share on
completion of the acquisition subject to 12-month escrow; plus
• Up to 6,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company at a deemed issue price of $0.10 per
share upon satisfaction of certain performance hurdles and subject to 12-month escrow.

All core from historical drilling at the Montezuma Antimony-Silver Project was relogged and
resampled. This resulted in 12 high-grade antimony and silver drill intercepts being reported
according to the guidelines of the 2012 JORC Code, affirming the exceptional high-grade nature of
the Montezuma Antimony-Silver Project deposit. Similarly, drill intercept assays showed
mineralisation to be generally much wider than previously thought. Furthermore, significant gold,
copper and tin assay values enhanced the overall mineral endowment.

yellow from historical drill intercepts (dark blue boxes) and surface grab samples (light blue boxes).
During the year an extensive drill programme commenced at Montezuma to test for extensions of the
Montezuma deposit, both down dip and along strike. The initial target area being tested is approximately
300min strike by 200m depth. This 50-to-60-hole drilling programme (8,000m to 10,000m) is ongoing with 17
holes for 2,507m having been completed up to the FY year end with a total 26 drill holes for 41,50m completed
to date.
Exploration and extension drilling has produced numerous high-grade antimony and silver drill intercepts
including:
776 g/t AgEq or 2.18% SbEq over 9.9m (MZS19)

Figure 5. Montezuma Antimony-Silver Project Hanging Wall Lode Long Section show drill holes completed to
date and intercepts for drill holes MZS18 to MZS22 (Section 5364050N).
The Montezuma antimony-silver deposit consists of structurally controlled poly metallic sulphide lodes
associated with the Montezuma fault, hosted by a sequence of turbidites, siltstones, sandstones and black
shale units. Antimony is contained within Jamesonite, a lead-iron-antimony sulphide mineral (Pb4FeSb6S14)
and is a late-stage hydrothermal mineral forming at moderate to low temperatures. Silver occurs as
tetrahedrite and argentiferous galena.
Drilling to date has intercepted multiple mineralised veins in each drill hole and the mineralised structures
remain open in all directions. Silver and antimony are by far the most dominant metals however significant
gold, lead, copper and tin values highlight the polymetallic nature of mineralisation in the Montezuma lodes.
Antimony and silver values interchange dominance from intercept to intercept.
In addition to numerous wide intercepts encountered to date (20 intercepts >2m), multiple mineralised
“daughter” structures occur adjacent to the footwall and hanging wall structures, suggesting the potential for a
bulk tonnage resource scenario. This is particularly pertinent where the footwall and hanging wall structures
coalesce.
The Montezuma deposit is associated with a 500m Sn, Ag, As soil anomaly defined by historical soil sampling.
Follow-up surface mapping and sampling followed by drilling has extended the Montezuma Sb-Ag deposit
along strike
Lode sees the Montezuma deposit as a model for discovering other such structurally controlled granite related
Sb-Ag sulphide deposits in the West Coast Mining Province. Base metal soil anomalies defined by historical
exploration provide numerous untested structural targets in the district. Lode is acquiring a significant land
holding in the district with the recent acquisition of tenement EL2/2020 adding 88 sqkm’s and tenement
application EL6/2025 adding 71 sqkm’s.

Antimony and Silver Metal Equivalent Grades
LDR is reporting both antimony and silver equivalent grade figures due to interchanging dominance of these two metals from intercept to
intercept. Metal equivalent grade figures are a method of demonstrating overall metal endowment for all significant metals’ grades in a
single grade figure for each intercept and thus allowing a simpler comparison between intercepts. Montezuma’s reported antimony and
silver equivalent figures are based on conversion factors as follows:
SbEq(%) = Sb(%) + 0.00281*Ag(g/t) + 0.056*Pb(%) + 0.29*Cu(%)
AgEq(g/t) = Ag(g/t) + 355*Sb(%) + 20*Pb(%) + 101*Cu(%)
Metal equivalent conversion factors were calculated using 30 December 2024 metal prices of US$34,747/t antimony, US$29.1/oz silver,
US$1,912/t lead and US$8,705/t copper. The antimony price was calculated as an average of several antimony products in a number of
markets.
Metal equivalent conversion factors were calculated using a preliminary flotation test carried out by ALS Metallurgy (Burnie) in September
2019, where recoveries achieved were 74.5% antimony, 77.9% silver, 75.8% lead and 84.8% copper. It is Lode’s opinion that all the
elements included in the metal equivalents calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.
2
Tin and Gold Assays
Tin and Gold assay figures are not included in equivalent figures as gold was not assayed in an early flotation test. ALS Metallurgy has
been commissioned to complete further comprehensive flotation tests on Montezuma Antimony & Silver mineralisation including the
recovery of tin and gold. This includes Quantitative X-ray Diffraction (QXRD) analysis to determine overall mineralogy.

Magwood Antimony Project
Lode has announced the commencement of an inaugural drilling programme at Lode’s 100% owned Magwood
Antimony Project. The Magwood Antimony Project is the company’s second strategic antimony project and
located in the New England Fold Belt, NSW. A significant drill program at Lode’s Montezuma Antimony Project
located in Tasmania is on-going with samples from multiple completed drill holes currently being assayed.
The Magwood Antimony Project drill program is for 15 diamond holes testing semi-parallel antimony bearing
lode structures at the Magwood antimony mine in addition to the one historical mined lode. Drilling is designed
to test targets ranging from shallow positions in depth to a likely down hole depth of 450m.
The Magwood antimony mine has never been drilled despite being a significant historical antimony producer
and Australia’s largest primary antimony producer up to the 1970’s.The Magwood mine was mainly worked
between 1941 and 1970 with recorded yearly production grades ranging from 4% to 62% Sb and the first seven
years of production average 55% Sb indicating very selective mining though hand sorting of massive stibnite
(71% Sb). Magwood was Australia’s largest primary antimony producer before the focus switched to the
Hillgrove mine in 1969. Multiple antimony bearing lodes have been identified through exploration mapping and
literature reviews. Historical mine plans and reports show that only a single lode was previously mined.
Mine dump grab samples at the Magwood antimony mine have returned high grade antimony as showing in
Table 7 below. Grab sampling is selective in nature with resultant assay grades considered to be qualitative
rather than quantitative and not necessarily representative of the mined stibnite mineralisation which may
actually be lower or higher in antimony grade. Grab sample assays graded as high as 41.7% Sb and one dump
sample graded 6.14 g/t Au (sample no. R508) indicating there is potential for gold bearing lodes at depth.

New England Antimony Exploration Licence
Lode’s New England exploration licences EL9662 and EL9319 cover multiple strategic antimony prospects,
including the historical Magwood antimony mine. These antimony prospects, together with Lode’s Montezuma
Antimony Project located in Tasmania, forms a strategic exploration portfolio that is highly prospective for one
of the world’s most critical metals.
In total there are 19 recorded antimony prospects within the Exploration Licences EL9662 and EL9319, both
controlled 100% by Lode. Almost no drilling has occurred within Lode’s antimony project areas despite the
geology being considered highly prospective for orogenic structurally-controlled antimony mineralisation. It is
highly relevant that surface work is almost nonexistent.
The area totals 1,914 km2 and forms a large proportion of the approximately 2,949km2 of exploration licences
that Lode owns in NSW. This makes Lode the largest holder of exploration ground in the New England Fold
Belt.
Exploration within the New England Fold Belt has been limited since the 1970’s with one exploration hole
drilled for every fourteen holes drilled in the Lachlan Fold Belt attesting to the tremendous discovery potential
that may be latent within Lode’s strategic exploration portfolio. Field activities have commenced including
access discussions with surface landowners.

Webbs Consol Silver Project
During the year Lode announced a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the 100% owned Webbs
Consol Silver Project located in the New England Fold Belt in northeastern New South Wales. The MRE is
classified according to the 2012 edition of the JORC Code as Inferred and Indicated Resources at a 140g/t
AgEq lower cutoff, contains:
1.6 Mt @ 636g/t AgEqi
g/t for 32 M Ounces AgEqi-iv
Webbs Consol is a historical mining centre which is known for historic high-grade silver-base metal-bearing
lodes. The maiden MRE is a culmination of Lode‘s collation of exploration data from a number of recent drill
campaigns carried out by LDR.
The result marked a significant advancement in the Company’s understanding of the Ag‐Zn-Pb sulphide
mineralisation associated with the Webbs Consol Leucogranite in the New England Fold Belt of New South
Wales. The MRE confirms the scale and quality of the Webbs Consol Ag-Zn-Pb lodes.

I. Equivalent grades are based on assumptions: AgEq(g/t)=Ag(g/t)+61*Zn(%)+33*Pb(%)+*107*Cu(%)+88*Au(g/t) calculated
from 28 August 2022 spot metal prices of US$18.5/oz silver, US$3600/t zinc, US$2000/t lead, US$8100/t copper, US$1740/oz
gold and metallurgical recoveries of 97.3% silver, 98.7%, zinc, 94.7% lead, 76.3% copper and 90.8% gold.
II. Recoveries derived from metallurgical test work (LDR announcement 14 December 2021).
III. It is Lode’s opinion that all the elements included in the metal equivalents calculation have a reasonable potential to be
recovered and sold.
IV. Figures are subject to rounding.
Webbs Consol is located on Lode’s wholly owned tenement EL8933, 16km west-south-west of Emmaville and
30km northeast of Glenn Innes, in the New England district of New South Wales. Access to the area is via all-
weather unsealed and sealed roads. The New England area is a historic mining district with numerous historic
