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 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.

About Cobra
Cobra's Wudinna Project is located in the Gawler Craton which is
home to some of the largest IOCG discoveries in Australia including
Olympic Dam, as well as Prominent Hill and Carrapateena. Cobra's
Wudinna tenements contain extensive orogenic gold mineralisation
and are characterised by potentially open-pitable, high-grade gold
intersections, with ready access to nearby infrastructure. Recent
drilling has discovered Rare Earth Mineralisation proximal to and
above gold mineralisation. The grades, style of mineralogy and
intercept widths are highly desirable. In addition, Cobra has over
22 orogenic gold prospects, with stand-out grades of 16 g/t up to
37.4 g/t gold outside of the current 211,000 oz JORC Mineral
Resource Estimate, as well as one copper-gold prospect, and five
IOCG targets.

* The reporting of REE oxides is done so in accordance
with industry standards with the following
calculations applied:
* TREO = La2O3 + CeO2 + Pr6O11 + Nd2O3 + Sm2O3 + Eu2O3
+ Gd2O3 + Tb4O7 + Dy2O3 + Ho2O3 + Er2O3 + Tm2O3 +
Yb2O3 + Lu2O3 + Y2O3
* CREO = Nd2O3 + Eu2O3 + Tb4O7 + Dy2O3 + Y2O3
* LREO = La2O3 + CeO2 + Pr6O11 + Nd2O3
* HREO = Sm2O3 + Eu2O3 + Gd2O3 + Tb4O7 + Dy2O3 + Ho2O3
+ Er2O3 + Tm2O3 + Yb2O3 + Lu2O3 + Y2O3
* NdPr = Nd2O3 + Pr6O11
* TREO-Ce = TREO - CeO2
* %Nd = Nd2O3/ TREO
* %Pr = Pr6O11/TREO
* %Dy = Dy2O3/TREO
* %HREO = HREO/TREO
* %LREO = LREO/TREO
