Drilling at Lamboo continues to extend mineralisation north and south of previously drilled areas. All areas drilled to date remain open in all directions.

ASX Announcement

21 July 2022

onlyRhodium and Iridium identified in Lamboo Nickel-PGE drilling

Pantoro Limited (ASX:PNR) (Pantoro) is pleased to advise that the initial 2022 step out drilling at the Lamboo Nickel-PGE Prospect has continued to return strong PGE, nickel and cobalt assays. In addition, significant coincident rhodium and iridium grades have been returned in the northern extensions of the Pt+Pd+Au zones drilled to date.

Highlights

• Occurrence of coincident rhodium and iridium with the highest grade Pt+Pd +Au(3E) assays returned to date. Previously released results in northern parts of the West Limb of the Lamboo Prospect have also been confirmed to hold significant rhodium and iridium values.

• Rhodium and iridium are high value elements, currently priced at approximately A$21,400/oz and A$6,900/oz

use

respectively.1

• Fourteen holes drilled in the northern zones await return of rhodium and iridium analysis.

• Broad zones of strong nickel and cobalt mineralisation have been encountered separate to the high grade PGE

mineralisation identified.

• Drilling is ongoing with a number of additional assay results expected in the near term.

"The latest drilling at Lamboo continues to indicate a very large system with all targets drilled in the prospective zone to date returning strong zones of PGE, nickel and cobalt intersections. The identification of significant Rhodium and iridium in the northern zones of the prospect is an exciting development. Drilling is ongoing at Lamboo with a large number of assays yet to be returned."

Commenting on the results, Managing Director Paul Cmrlec said:

Platinum Group Elements

Pantoro has continued to advance its evaluation of the basal portion of the folded Lamboo ultramafic complex. Initial step out drilling in 2022 has focussed on the West Limb where wide PGE intersections were reported in releases on 10 January 2022 titled 'Significant Lamboo PGE strike extension' and 1 March 2022 titled 'Lamboo PGE continues to grow ahead of planned 2022 drill campaign'.

Based on results returned to date, drilling has extended the northern portion by 700 metres and the southern

useportion by 250 metres. Mineralisation remains open along strike to the north and south.

The nature of the mineralisation defined in the northern area differs to that seen in the central zone around Edison and the central zones of the West Limb. Mineralised PGE intervals include a number of narrower higher grade zones as well as broad zones of nickel and cobalt mineralisation.

As part of the ongoing evaluation of the system, five holes were submitted to assess for other PGEs, including rhodium, iridium and ruthenium within PGE rich zones utilising fire assay with nickel sulphide collection. Initial results have returned significant rhodium and iridium values.

An additional fourteen intervals from this area have now been submitted for fire assay with nickel sulphide collection onlyin order to achieve accurate rhodium and iridium values with results outstanding. Assessment for rhodium and

iridium will be ongoing for new drilling in the northern zone and other step out areas within the system. New PGE (3E) results from the recent step out drilling include:

• 11 m @ 1.11 g/t Pt +Pd +Au(3E) from 120 metres inc. 3 metres @ 2.17 g/t Pt +Pd +Au(3E);

• 5m @ 1.91 g/t Pt + Pd + Au (3E) from 190 metres inc. 2 metres @ 3.71 g/t Pt +Pd +Au(3E);

• 5 m @ 1.37 g/t Pt +Pd +Au(3E) from 36 metres inc. 2 metres @ 2.42 g/t Pt +Pd +Au(3E);

• 6 m @ 1.22 g/t Pt +Pd +Au(3E) from 1 metre;

• 23 m @ 0.92 g/t Pt +Pd +Au(3E) from surface;

use* Platinum (Pt) plus palladium (Pd) plus gold (Au) (3E) breakdown for each constituent element is provided in the summary table of assays. ^ Rhodium and Iridium assay results by Nis FA are still outstanding for these holes.

Nickel and Cobalt

Significant widths and grades of near surface nickel and cobalt have also been identified as part of the current step out drilling in the northern area of the West Limb. The nickel and cobalt mineralisation has been observed over wide intervals and does not necessarily correlate to the PGE mineralisation as it has in previous drilling to the south.

New results include:

  • 19 m @ 0.61% Ni and 0.099% Co from surface;
  • 25 m @ 0.70% Ni and 0.044% Co from surface; only• 20 m @ 0.46% Ni and 0.018% Co from surface;
  • 41 m @ 0.56% Ni and 0.052% Co from surface;
  • 20 m @ 0.62% Ni and 0.026% Co from surface;
  • 28 m @ 0.47% Ni and 0.024% Co from surface;

F rward Program

Pantoro has drilled a total of 12,500 metres in the current program with drilling ongoing and a number of results still outstanding. Outstanding holes include northern extensions and growth drilling in the Edison area.

Ongoing work is planned in the coming months ahead of the next wet season. At present drilling rates, it is expected that a further 7,500 metres will be achieved during the September 2022 quarter. Focus will continue to be on id ntification of mineralisation over a wide area of the prospective basal contact.
