Wudinna Project Update

Stage 4 Re-Analysis Demonstrates Large Scalability of Rare Earth Mineralisation

Preliminary Metallurgical Testing Provides Encouraging Recovery Potential

Cobra, a gold, IOCG, and rare earth exploration company focused on the Wudinna Project in South Australia, announces results from the Stage 4 re-analysis of a further 78 drillholes (1,024 samples) from historic drilling at several regional targets. Drillholes were re-analysed for lanthanides following the definition to date of a 4 km(2) Rare Earth Element ("REE") mineralisation footprint above Clarke and Baggy Green gold mineralisation.

-- Exceptional high-grade REE intersections have been defined within saprolite clays at several regional targets that are headlined by:

o SCH-0922 intersects 31m at 1,427 ppm TREO from 12m including 12m at 3,168 ppm TREO with 28.4% combined neodymium/praseodymium (Nd/Pr) and 1.7% dysprosium (Dy)

o WUD1-0231 intersects 18m at 2,024 ppm TREO from 24m with 23.7% combined Nd/Pr and 2.8% Dy

o KY1-0399 intersects 37m at 1,304 ppm TREO from 18m with 22% Nd/Pr and 1.5% Dy

-- A number of the prospects yielding high-grade rare earth intersections will be tested within our current aircore drilling programme.

-- High-grade intersections occur along a 47-kilometre structural trend across the project's 1,832 km(2) , demonstrating the scale potential of REE mineralisation where:

o at the Anderson prospect, the average significant intersection is 18.3m at 844 ppm TREO from 16m with neodymium and praseodymium equating to 23.1% and dysprosium 1.5% of the TREO;

o at the Thompson prospect, the average significant intersection is 15.6m at 832 ppm TREO from 16m with neodymium and praseodymium equating to 23.8% and dysprosium 1.6% of the TREO;

o at the Hadlee prospect, the average significant intersection is 25m at 693 ppm TREO from 22m with neodymium and praseodymium equating to 22.2% and dysprosium 1.3% of the TREO; and

o at the Botham prospect, the average significant intersection is 12m at 836 ppm TREO from 32m with neodymium and praseodymium equating to 19.7% and dysprosium 1.6% of the TREO.

-- Preliminary metallurgical test work completed by the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation ("ANSTO") on samples from two drillholes at Clarke confirm the presence of leachable REE mineralisation, with leach recoveries of up to 34.1% TREE (+Y)

Rupert Verco, CEO of Cobra, commented:

"These results contain some of the highest grade REE intersections reported from the project to date with high quantities of high-value magnet rare earths including neodymium, praseodymium and dysprosium.

The results validate our belief that targeting large structures that enhance REE mobility and granite weathering can produce higher grade rare earth occurrences over incredibly large areas. The reported rare earth grades and widths to date demonstrate that the Wudinna Project is potentially a world-class rare earth province.

Preliminary metallurgical test work confirms leachable rare earth mineralisation, with recoveries being in line with other rare earth projects. The results necessitate further follow-up testing where optimisation techniques will be tested with the aim of further improving recoveries.

Our current and upcoming field programmes are designed to further advance the extent of rare earth mineralisation, define further gold mineralisation and to drill test our exciting IOCG targets.

We look forward to providing updates as our field work progresses."

A webcast presentation by the Company's CEO regarding the interpretation of these results is available on the Company's website at www.cobraplc.com/investors/ .

Highlights include:

   --    At the Anderson prospect, highlight intersections include: 

o WUD1-0231 intersected 18m at 2,024 ppm TREO from 24m, including 12m at 2,767 ppm TREO from 30m, above the previously reported 1m at 1.013 g/t gold from 79m

o WUD1-0383 intersected 40m at 641 ppm TREO from 12m, including 6m at 1,077 ppm TREO from 36m

o WUD1-0328 intersected 15.6m at 612 ppm TREO from 15.5m

   --    At the Thompson prospect, highlight intersections include: 

o SCH-0922 intersected 31m at 1,427 ppm TREO from 12m, including 12m at 3,168 ppm TREO from 12m

o SCH-0939 intersected 6m at 1,839 ppm TREO from 36m

o SCH-0928 intersected 12m at 811 ppm TREO from 36m

o SCH-0977 intersected 18m at 692 ppm TREO from 6m

o KO11S-1085 intersected 6m at 687 ppm TREO from 0m

   --    At the Hadlee prospect, highlight intersections include: 

o KY1-0399 intersected 37m at 1,304 ppm TREO from 18m

o KY1-0397 intersected 16m at 633 ppm TREO from 36m

o KO3-0525 intersected 18m at 544 ppm TREO from 18m

   --    At the Botham prospect, highlight intersections include: 

o WBN-0884 intersected 12m at 800 ppm TREO from 18m

o WBN-0888 intersected 6m at 1,165 ppm TREO from 48m

o WBN-0962 intersected 18m at 544 ppm TREO from 30m

   --    At the Barns and White Tank gold resources intersections include: 

o RHBN-177 intersected 12m at 540 ppm TREO from 18m

o RHBN-182 intersected 6m at 518 ppm TREO from 6m and 6m at 946 ppm TREO from 24m

o Intersections are low in radioactive nuclei with average intersections of uranium and thorium being 6 ppm and 22 ppm respectively

(1) Rare earth results reported as calculated true width intersections using a maximum of 6m internal dilution, owing the downhole composite length.

-- Metallurgical test work demonstrates leaching recoveries of up to 34.1% TREE (+Y) using H2SO4 as lixiviant, at a pH 1 over a 6-hour duration - comparable to preliminary metallurgical results of other clay hosted rare earth projects in South Australia

   --    Leach time and pH positively impact recoveries 
   --    Low to moderate acid consumption demonstrated in test work 

-- Metallurgical test work confirms low content Ion phase mineralisation and more abundant colloidal mineralisation. These styles of mineralisation are conducive to low-cost extraction techniques

Cobra now intends to conduct follow-up validation metallurgical optimisation test work and to evaluate recovery potential over broader areas of mineralisation. Cobra also intends to trial rare earth extraction techniques such as rare earth characterisation by size, beneficiation stage amenability, varying lixiviants, pH, leach times, introducing washing steps and introducing multiple leach steps. to increase high value magnet rare earth recoveries.

Interpretation of results:

Re-analysis of historic pulp samples

-- The proximity of regional, large scale geological structures to high-grade REE intersections is interpreted to result from:

o NW trending structure acting as conduits for the Hiltaba age intrusions that are elevated in REEs

o Structural fabrics exacerbating secondary weathering and REE mobilisation, resulting in increased saprolite thicknesses and REE enriched saprolite horizons

-- REE high-grade intersections have been defined along 47 km of an extensive regional structure. This structure intersects and offsets gold mineralisation at Barns, White Tank and Baggy Green Resources

-- The results re-affirm the companies approach to defining a large, robust and complementary dual commodity resource

Preliminary metallurgical test work

o 1m sample composites from Clarke drillholes CBRC0044 and CBRC0054 (drilled in Nov-21) were submitted to ANSTO to test the recovery of contained rare earth elements. Results have been reviewed by Peter Adamini BSc (Mineral Science and Chemistry), who is a full time employee of Independent Metallurgy Operations Pty Ltd (IMO) and a Member of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (AusIMM).

o Clay-hosted rare earth deposits generally contain three styles of mineralisation:

o Ionic phase : Where rare earths occur as soluble cations and are adsorbed to weakly charged clay particles. This rare earth mineralisation can be readily extracted by ion-exchange leaching with monovalent salts

o Colloid phase : REEs are present as oxides or hydroxides or as part of colloidal polymeric compounds. These species have a higher presence in ores from slightly alkaline conditions and are recoverable through acid leaching

o Mineral phase : REEs occur within solid crystal particulate of minerals representative of the host rocks. This type of mineralisation generally forms the non-recoverable portion of ionic clay deposits, only being recoverable by aggressive conditions that involve complex flow sheets

-- Two separate tests targeting the ionic and colloid phases of rare earth mineralisation were performed where:

o Metallurgical recoveries are calculated from head grades analysed via a mixed acid digest -Lithium Borate Fusion ICP scan. This resulted in an average increase in head grade of 6% compared to the previously reported 4-Acid digest results

o The standard desorption test targeting the ionic phase of mineralisation yielded low (<10%) recoveries from 40-gram samples under the following standard conditions:

-- 0.5M (NH(4) )(2) SO(4) as lixiviant

-- pH4

-- Duration: 30 minutes

-- Ambient temperature of 22 deg C

-- 2 wt% density

o Leaching test work demonstrated improved recoveries resulting from reduced pH and increased leach time with one sample yielding recoveries of up to 34.1% TREE+Y under the following conditions:

-- Acidic water as lixiviant (using H(2) SO(4) )

-- pH1

-- Duration: 6 hours

-- Ambient temperature of 22 deg C

-- 2 wt% density

o Results suggest a higher portion of colloid phase mineralisation

o Acid consumption was low to moderate for all tested samples

o Results are comparable to the preliminary results presented for other South Australian clay hosted rare earth projects that have demonstrated improved recoveries through optimisation test work

o The results demonstrate the presence of colloid phase mineralisation. Ionic phase mineralisation is controlled by a number of environmental factors including pH, varying ground water conditions, the presence of sulphides in bedrock and the chemistry of the overlying humic layer which may improve recovery

o Varying conditions encountered over large geological domains, intersected changes in REE composition and varying states of the saprolite horizon re-affirm the potential for ionic phase mineralisation to occur at the Wudinna Project

o Based on the results of the preliminary metallurgical test work, the Company is encouraged to undertake further optimised metallurgical assessment across the expanded REE mineralisation footprint

Next steps

The Company is focused on executing its exciting, high-value 2022 work programme that is designed to:

1. Cost effectively grow the existing 211,000 ounce gold mineral resource estimate ("MRE") through testing strike extensions at Clarke, test resource extensions at Barns and White Tank, and test prospective regional gold in calcrete and pathfinder anomalies

2. Expand the saprolite hosted rare earth mineralisation footprint beyond the reported re-analysis footprint with the aim defining a maiden REE resource

   3.    Maiden drill test IOCG targets with anomalous geophysical and geochemical indicators 

The current aircore drilling programme and the planned RC programme are designed to advance a number of gold, IOCG and rare earth targets where REE mineralisation will be tested from the clay component of the Saprolite horizon. This will enable the collection of greater sample quantities across a significantly expanded sample area enabling rare earth element metallurgical optimisation studies.

In consultation with ANSTO and metallurgical consultants IMO, the Company will determine the best approach to define a robust metallurgical optimisation study. Options include rare earth characterisation by size, beneficiation stage amenability, varying lixiviants, pH, leach times, introducing washing steps and introducing multiple leach steps.
