Browns Range Northern Territory<br />
The Browns Range Dome (Figure 6) is a large oval-shaped structure, approximately 60 kilometres by 30<br />
kilometres in extent, that lies on the Western Australian (WA) and Northern Territory (NT) border. To date<br />
nearly all the Company’s exploration at Browns Range has been focussed on the WA side of the Browns Range<br />
Dome, which only covers approximately 15% of the area of the Dome. In 2021-22, the Company plans to<br />
recommence exploration on the NT side of the Dome, initially focussed on the southern margin of the Browns<br />
Range Dome. This however was significantly delayed due to COVID-19 restrictions.<br />

Boulder Ridge<br />
The Boulder Ridge Project is in the Northern Territory, approximately 110 kilometres from the Browns Range<br />
Project. Drill ready targets have been identified with xenotime mineralisation in a similar geological setting as<br />
Browns Range. On-ground exploration was cancelled in <strong>2020</strong> due to travel restrictions imposed by the NT and WA<br />
governments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, but first-pass drilling is now being planned for early 2022.<br />
