EAGLE MOUNTAIN MINING  |  2022 Annual ReportChairman’s 
Letter

Dear Shareholders, 

It is my pleasure to present to you the FY22 Annual Report for 
Eagle Mountain Mining Limited. 

In addition to important financial and corporate governance 
information, this Report provides a detailed update on a 
year full of progress towards the Company’s key objective 
to become a low emission producer at its high-grade Oracle 
Ridge Copper Project in Arizona, USA, to supply copper to 
the rapidly growing green energy market.

The extensive work undertaken during the financial year 
has further enhanced the status of the Oracle Ridge Copper 
Project as a quality acquisition, given its tier 1 location, 
existing underground development, improving high-grade 
copper resource and multiple prospective exploration 
targets. The Eagle Mountain team have done excellent work 
this year growing and building confidence in the Resource.

EAGLE MOUNTAIN MINING  |  2022 Annual Report

EAGLE MOUNTAIN MINING  |  2022 Annual ReportAs announced in February 2022, work began to 
recommission the existing underground mine 
to enable underground mapping, sampling and 
drilling to commence. One of the prime advantages 
of this asset is its 18 kilometres of underground 
infrastructure, which gives the Company the 
advantage of rapid restart potential. Advancing 
exploration underground will be more cost effective 
and provide an improved understanding of 
geological structures and metallurgy. 

In March 2022, following exceptional drilling results, 
the Company released its first update to the JORC 
(2012) Mineral Resource Estimate, to deliver a 36% 
increase in contained copper at a 1% cut-off grade, 
with substantial further optionality at lower cut-off 
grades.

The Company continued to drill from surface 
through the remainder of the FY 22 year. The goal 
has been to build on the resource, particularly 
in the Measured and Indicated categories, and 
also advance our understanding of the complex 
geological structures within the total landholding. 
We are currently eagerly awaiting permits to drill 
one of these nearby prospective areas.

It has been another productive year led by our 
Managing Director Charles Bass and CEO Tim 
Mason in Perth and supported by Manuel Ramos 
in Tucson as CEO of US Operations. I know the 
team members are pleased to be working together 
again in person now with travel restrictions lifted.
We are fortunate to have a dedicated team and on 
behalf of the Board, I thank them for their ongoing 
commitment to the Company. 

Finally, I would like to again thank all shareholders, 
whose continued support is much appreciated. Next 
year promises to be another active year and I wish 
you all the best.

Yours faithfully 

Rick Crabb 
Chairman

EAGLE MOUNTAIN MINING  |  2022 Annual ReportCEO Letter

Dear Shareholders, 

I am pleased to report on the progress made by our Company 
over the past year. 

Eagle Mountain has continued to successfully execute its 
strategy to de-risk a future restart of the Oracle Ridge copper 
mine in Arizona. Oracle Ridge benefits from both a history 
of production and extensive existing infrastructure which 
provides valuable confidence in many necessary aspects to 
become a successful mining operation. 

A key aspect to de-risking the project is to build and upgrade 
our existing mineral resources. Over 48,000 metres were 
drilled through FY22 which contributed to the discovery of 
further mineralisation. Following a recent JORC resource 
update, we have now increased our Measured and Indicated 
Resource tonnes by more than 60% since December 2020.

Oracle Ridge has an accessible underground mine with over 
18 kilometres of existing developments. This is a unique 
opportunity as not many pre-production projects have direct 
access to in-situ mineralisation from underground. At the 
time of writing, we are refurbishing parts of these workings 
and will start an extensive sampling program and commence 
a lower cost underground drilling program focusing on 
building and upgrading our resources.

EAGLE MOUNTAIN MINING  |  2022 Annual Report

EAGLE MOUNTAIN MINING  |  2022 Annual ReportWe continually consider the broader economic, 
environmental and social impacts of our activities 
as part of our long-term strategy and goals. I am 
proud that we have continued to support local 
communities’ sporting teams and fire departments 
during the last year. 

Significantly, Oracle Ridge can use the natural 
benefits of gravity to support a low-emission mining 
process. Unlike mines with long haulage ramps, 
Oracle Ridge has the potential to utilise available 
battery-operated equipment. This will reduce 
emissions from the underground equipment and 
also save energy by requiring smaller and more 
energy-efficient ventilation systems. The project 
has the potential to produce copper for global 
decarbonisation with significantly lower emissions 
than similar mining operations.

With the advanced Oracle Ridge copper project, 
our Company is well positioned to capitalise on the 
multi-decade transition to ‘green energy’ and ‘to 
find the metals needed to decarbonise the world’. 
Most analysts continue to anticipate shortfalls in 
global copper supply due to increasing demand 
and limited supply response; both of which support 
forecasts for higher copper prices, especially beyond 
2025. This is a great time to be growing our copper 
inventory ahead of this period.

It would be remiss of me not to mention the impact 
of the recent volatile market conditions. Like many 
resource companies globally, Eagle Mountain has 
not been immune to these challenges and our share 
price has been impacted. Given the underlying 
quality of Oracle Ridge and the positive outlook for 
copper, I am confident that our Company is well 
placed for growth.

Finally, I would like to thank all our dedicated board, 
employees, contractors, business partners and 
shareholders for their contributions and support to 
our Company over the last year.

Yours faithfully

Tim Mason 
Chief Executive Officer

EAGLE MOUNTAIN MINING  |  2022 Annual ReportOUR COMMITMENT 
TO A SUSTAINABLE 
FUTURE

The global transition towards green energy is 
reliant on copper with increasing demand into 
the future. We aim to support that demand 
with a US domestic supply of copper which 
is mined in a low disturbance, low emissions 
process while supporting local communities. Our 
Oracle Ridge project is located in an area with 
a history of mining and is well supported with 
local infrastructure and over 18 kilometres of 
existing underground tunnels. Unlike large open 
pits, our underground operations have far less 
surface disturbance leading to less impact on the 
environment. Our Company is founded on strong 
governance principles and we are committed to 
operating responsibly for a sustainable future.

Figure 1 - Location of Oracle Ridge Copper Project 

The Oracle Ridge Copper Mine is an advanced stage project containing a high-grade copper 
resource  with  significant  gold  and  silver  credits.  Mineralisation  at  Oracle  Ridge  is  skarn-
hosted  which  is  common  at  many  other  porphyry  deposits  in  Arizona.  The  source  of  the 
mineralisation  at  Oracle  Ridge  has  not  been  found  and  it  remains  a  key  exploration 
opportunity.  

The project benefits from 18 kilometres of existing underground development in very good 
condition, along with other supporting infrastructure. 

Exploration 

Eagle Mountain commenced its diamond drill program in September 2020. Following strong 
exploration  results  combined  with  ongoing  delineation  of  further  exploration  targets,  the 
Company continued to drill with three drill rigs for the first half of the financial year. Due to 
assay delay times and the very efficient drilling, there was a large backlog of assays and the 
Company decided to revert to two drill rigs. The two drill rigs continued for the remainder of 
the financial year and reached record drill rates. Over 48,000 metres of diamond drilling was 
undertaken during  the financial  year with the  aim of both building  and  upgrading mineral 
resources.  

Resource upgrade and infill drilling was completed to increase the volume of the resource in 
higher confidence Indicated and Measured categories. Only ‘Measured’ and ‘Indicated’ Mineral

Infill drilling around the main mine area provided strong support to nearby historical intercepts. 
Interestingly, mineralisation continued to be intersected between the main mineralised lodes in 
historically unsampled areas. While more work is required, these results are encouraging and 
could have favourable implications for reducing mining costs in a potential production scenario.  

Expansion  drilling  continued  during  the  year  with  the  aim  to  build  further  resources.  The 
drilling  covered  a  range  of  areas  across  the  project,  including  the  Talon  where  new 
mineralised zones up to 700 metres from north to south were discovered. The next Resource 
update was released early in Q4 2022.

Recommissioning of the Underground Mine 

The Company’s increased confidence in the resource potential of the Project provided the 
impetus  to  bring  forward  plans  to  invest  in  the  recommissioning  of  parts  of  the  existing 
underground mine.  

The Oracle Ridge mine includes over 18 kilometres of existing underground development, 
accessed from two portals, with over 90% of the existing mine accessible from these portals  
not  requiring  dewatering.  The  underground  recommissioning  includes  installation  and/or 
servicing  of  electrical,  water  and  air  services,  followed  by  progressive  checks  and 
rehabilitation of underground tunnels as required.  

During  the  year,  the  Company  progressed  necessary  planning  for  the  recommissioning 
including  emergency  escape-way  plans,  mine  ventilation  plans,  emergency  response 
contracts  and  other  safety-related  plans.  Many  of  these  documents  are  necessary  for 
compliance with government agencies. Various inspections were undertaken and tendering 
for a suitable contractor to undertake the work also progressed. The MSHA (Mine Safety and 
Health Administration) underground mine status has now moved from non-active to active, 
non-producing.  Subsequent  to  the  end  of  the  financial  year,  the  Company  appointed  a 
mining services contractor to undertake the works.  

Access  to  the  existing  underground  mine  enables  diamond  drilling  and  mapping  to  be 
conducted from underground. This has a range of benefits including: 

•  RReedduucceedd   ccoossttss   aanndd   ttiimmee –  Drilling  from  underground  will  allow  a  reduction  in  hole 
length by an estimated 40 to 60% when compared to surface drilling. As the Company 
is focusing on improving the quality of the resource with higher density drilling, this 
provides significant time and cost savings.  

• 

IImmpprroovveedd  qquuaalliittyy – Shorter holes typically have less deviation which is important for 
higher density drilling as required for Measured and Indicated mineral resources. 

•  FFaasstteerr  ddeelliivveerryy  ooff  rreessuullttss – The shorter holes mean quicker turnaround and therefore 

faster results for future Mineral Resources Estimate updates. 

•  OOtthheerr – Drilling from underground can reduce the impact of adverse weather events 

such as monsoons or snow, which have previously impacted surface drilling.   

Underground  access  also  facilitates  certain  studies  which  will  be  important  aspects  of  a 
planned preliminary feasibility study. These activities include: 

•  MMeettaalllluurrggiiccaall – collection of bulk samples for metallurgical and comminution test work 

to design optimal processing circuitry and recoveries.  

•  GGeeootteecchhnniiccaall  ––  collection of structural data for geotechnical evaluation of stopes and 

development designs. 

Access from the underground will also provide optionality to install a future exploration drive 
from the existing underground towards the Talon area where multiple strong drilling results 
have been received.

Metallurgical Testwork  

The  metallurgy  of  the  Project  has  been  significantly  de-risked  by  actual  production  in  the 
early 1990s when a saleable, clean copper-silver-gold concentrate was produced. The mine 
did  encounter  some  processing  challenges  due  to  the  lack  of  comprehensive  studies 
covering different types of skarn mineralisation and poor crushing and grinding processes. 
During  the  2010-2015  period,  the  previous  owners  of  the  project  completed  additional 
testwork which highlighted favourable copper, silver and gold recoveries.  

The  Company  has  engaged  a  metallurgist  to  review  the  historical  production  records  and 
metallurgical studies and to recommend additional work to confirm and possibly improve on 
the previous results. This work will focus on:  

•  Completing initial metallurgical studies on Talon area mineralisation;  
•  Reviewing  the  different  mineralogical  characteristics  of  the  different  skarn  and 
mineralisation  styles  across  the  mine.  Due  to  the  intrinsic  variability  of  skarn 
mineralisation, it is important to understand the unique metallurgical characteristics 
of  each  area  of  the  mine  to  assist  with  mine  scheduling  and  processing  down  the 
track;  

•  Reviewing and optimising crushing and grinding requirements as the early 1990s mill 

carried up to a 50% recirculating load;  

•  Reviewing  the  potential  presence  of  minerals  or  deleterious  elements  which  could 
impact processing or concentrate saleability. As discussed above, based on previous 
processing and concentrate sales it is expected these will not be an issue;  

•  Evaluating  the  viability  of  recovering  additional  by-products  such  as  magnetite  and 

garnet; and  

•  Assessing the potential benefits of ore sorting technology to reduce the material to 

be processed and, consequently, mill size and capital costs. 

The first large diameter metallurgical drill hole in the Talon commenced late in the financial 
year to provide additional material for the necessary tests required for future studies. As the 
Talon is a new discovery, no previous metallurgical testwork has been completed in this area.  

Resource Expansion Potential 

OORREEXX  

In  October  2020,  field  mapping  identified  extensive  occurrences  of  outcropping  skarn-
hosted  copper-silver-gold  mineralisation  to  the  south  of  the  main  mine  area  (refer  ASX 
announcement  12  October  2020).    This  new  area  was  called  OREX.    A  detailed  mapping 
programme  was  undertaken  with  over  100  grab  samples  collected.  The  outcropping 
mineralisation was in limestone formations, similar to those encountered at the Oracle Ridge 
mine.  The  results  prompted  the  staking  in  2020  of  over  80  additional  unpatented  mining

claims  covering  the  eastern  extension  of  the  lower  Leatherwood-Sediments  contact.  A 
further 12 unpatented claims were also staked during the reporting year. 

The Company believes that the prospective contact exists at depth below the Leatherwood 
for approximately three kilometres in an east-west direction (see Figure 5). 

Permit  applications  to  the  United  States  Forest  Service  for  drilling  on  parts  of  the  OREX 
prospect were progressed during the year.   

GGoollddeenn  EEaaggllee   

Golden Eagle is an area centred approximately two kilometres to the east of the Oracle Ridge 
mine  portals  which  abuts  the  OREX  project  area  to  the  north.  Literature  and  preliminary 
exploration work by Eagle Mountain showed potential for Golden Eagle to contain a gold-rich 
mineralised system. 

During the year, an additional 27 Unpatented Claims were staked at Golden Eagle to secure 
exploration rights over prospective areas. Figure 5 below shows the location of the claims 
staked at Golden Eagle. Drilling results confirmed the two hydrothermal alteration systems 
at depth. These systems are: 

•  A vein-hosted polymetallic system characterised by pyrite and silica alteration with 
localised veins containing lead, zinc and copper sulphides. Interestingly, the intensity 
of alteration and veining appears to increase to the west and at depth. 

•  A gold-rich system, confirmed by assay results, displaying abundant hematite (iron 

oxide) alteration associated with geological structures (e.g. breccias).

Silver Mountain Copper Project (100%) 

The  Silver  Mountain  copper/gold  project  (“Silver  Mountain”)  is  located  in  central  Arizona, 
approximately 80 kilometres to the northwest of Phoenix. 

The project area sits on the Laramide Arc, a northwest-southeast trending geological feature 
containing world-class porphyry copper mines such as Bagdad, Miami and Resolution. It also 
lies on the southern extension of a northeast-southwest prospective metallogenic belt that 
hosts  United  Verde  and  Iron  King,  two  historical  mines  of  volcanogenic  massive  sulphide 
affinity. The intersection of these two trends results in a favourable geologic setting with high 
complexity and potential for multiple mineralisation styles. 

The northern portion of  the project area has a  history of prospecting and mining of high-
grade copper from the 1890s into the 1920s. Except for very limited campaigns in the 1960s, 
1970s  and  early  1990s,  there  had  been  no  modern  exploration  at  Silver  Mountain. 
Commencing in 2013, Eagle Mountain and its subsidiaries have been the first companies to 
complete modern exploration over the Silver Mountain project area. 

Eagle Mountain combined the fragmented land ownership along the main copper trend. A 
portion of the tenements are held in patented claims, which grant royalty-free surface and 
mineral rights with very low carrying costs. 

Silver Mountain encompasses four main prospects known as “Pacific Horizon”, “Scarlett”, “Red 
Mule” and “Rhyolite Target”, each having a unique mineralisation style.  

The  Company  views  Silver  Mountain  as  a  very  prospective  project  supported  by  multiple 
favourable  geological  signatures.  Initial  limited  drilling  has  significantly  enhanced  the 
understanding of these different mineralised systems while testing only a small portion of 
the prospective geology. 

While the current activities are currently focussed on the Oracle Ridge Project, the Company 
believes  strong  potential  still  exists  at  Silver  Mountain  for  the  discovery  of  an  economic 
concentration of copper, gold and silver.

The Company governs its activities in accordance with industry best-practice. The resource reports and 
supporting data were subjected to internal analysis and peer-review before release.  

MMiinneerraall  RReessoouurrcceess  

The Company’s Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at its Oracle Ridge Copper Project (“Oracle 
Ridge”) in Arizona is shown as at 6 October 2022 in Tables 5 and 6 and incorporates a 
number of positive changes since the MRE highlighted in last year’s report including: 

-  an  interim  MRE  in  March  2022  (refer  ASX  announcement  “36%  increase  in 

Copper….and Growing”, released on 10 March 2022); and 

-  an  updated  MRE  in  October  2022  (refer  ASX  announcement  “Oracle  Ridge  Mineral 

Resources estimate Update”). 

SRK Consulting Pty Ltd (“SRK”), a well-respected international mining consultancy with 
extensive experience in Resource estimation, was engaged to review and complete the 
MRE’s in conjunction with personnel from the Company. Both MRE’s were reported in 
accordance with the JORC Code 2012. 

Both updates to the MRE have incorporated a substantial amount of drilling and a 
significantly revised geological model. The geological model was created by Company 
personnel and reviewed by SRK. The October MRE Update was estimated using ordinary 
kriging (“OK”), constrained to unique geologic units.

The Company ensures good governance in relation to resource estimation.  The geological 
model used for Mineral Resource estimation was prepared by the Company in Leapfrog 
Geo using implicit modelling techniques and included all available drill hole data as well as 
surface and underground mapping. The model was independently reviewed by SRK. 

All drill hole data is stored in-house within a commercially available purpose designed 
database management system and subjected to industry standard validation procedures. 
Quality control on resource drill programs have been undertaken to industry standards 
with implementation of appropriate drilling type, survey data collection, assay standards, 
sample duplicates and repeat analyses. 

The resource reports and supporting data were subjected to internal analysis and peer 
review before release. The Company is not aware of any additional information, other than 
that reported, which would have a material effect on the estimates as reported. 

Due to the nature, stage and size of the Company’s existing operations, the Board believes 
there would be no efficiencies gained by establishing a separate mineral reserves and 
resources committee responsible for reviewing and monitoring the Company’s processes 
for calculating mineral reserves and resources estimates and for ensuring that the 
appropriate controls are applied to such calculations. 

The Company confirms it is not aware of any new information or data since the updated 
Mineral Resource was declared that materially affects the information included in this 
Mineral Resource Statement. 

CCOOMMPPEETTEENNTT  PPEERRSSOONNSS  SSTTAATTEEMMEENNTT  

The information in this Annual Mineral Resources Statement is based on, and fairly 
represents information and supporting documentation reviewed by Mr Fabio Vergara, who 
is a member of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (MAusIMM). Mr Vergara 
has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit 
under consideration and to the activity he is undertaking, to qualify as a Competent Person 
as defined in the 2012 Edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, 
Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC Code 2012). Mr Vergara is the Chief Geologist 
of Eagle Mountain Mining Limited and consents to the inclusion in this document of the 
information in the form and context in which it appears. Mr Vergara holds shares and 
options in Eagle Mountain Mining Limited.
