Final assay results from Parys Mountain 2022 drilling

Anglesey Mining plc (AIM:AYM), the UK minerals development company, continues to advance work programmes at both its Parys Mountain Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag-Au VMS project on the Isle of Anglesey in North West Wales and its Grängesberg iron ore project in Sweden.

Following the announcements on 14^th June and 15^th July 2022 regarding assay results, Anglesey is now pleased to announce that the final round of assay results have been received from the 2022 infill drilling programme at Parys Mountain.

Parys Mountain Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag-Au Project

The final two holes of the programme recorded multiple broad intercepts and continue to highlight that the White Rock and Engine Zones represent an extensive mineralised system.
Significant intersections include:
- Hole WD-24 from 239.4m - 1.5m at 1.4% Cu, 9.7% Zn, 6.2% Pb, 187g/t Ag & 2.7g/t Au (7.1% CuEq/19.9% ZnEq)¹
- Hole WD-24 from 262.94m - 28.96m at 3.3% Zn, 1.7% Pb, 0.5% Cu, 71g/t Ag & 0.9g/t Au (2.3% CuEq/6.5% ZnEq)¹ including:
  - 13m at 5.2% Zn, 2.6% Pb, 0.6% Cu, 100g/t Ag & 1.6g/t Au (3.6% CuEq/10.1% ZnEq)¹
  - 5.1m at 4.0% Zn, 2.3% Pb, 0.9% Cu, 118g/t Ag & 0.4g/t Au (3.0% CuEq/8.4% ZnEq)¹
- Hole WD-23 from 93m - 143.92m at 0.9% Zn, 0.5% Pb, 0.2% Cu, 9g/t Ag & 0.2g/t Au (0.6% CuEq/1.6% ZnEq)¹ including:
  - 7.1m at 3.5% Zn, 2.7% Pb, 0.5% Cu, 25g/t Ag & 0.2g/t Au (2.1% CuEq/5.9% ZnEq)¹
With all assays now received, the Company will select samples from the 10 drill holes for the metallurgical testwork programme. This will provide a trade-off study between the Dense Media Separation (DMS) and X-Ray Transmission (XRT) ore sorting pre-concentration methods. Historical DMS studies from 2007 demonstrated a 40% mass rejection of waste with only 3-5% metal losses. The metallurgical programme will also include testwork on potential tailings to feed into the next round of tailings management design work.
Anglesey will immediately commence an update to the Mineral Resource Estimate for the White Rock and Engine Zones to incorporate the additional information from the recent infill drill programme.
In other ongoing workstreams at Parys Mountain:
- Conceptual tailings management studies have demonstrated that the Parys Mountain site has sufficient capacity to hold all the tailings that would be produced under the largest production scenario of 3,000tpd, as detailed in the Preliminary Economic Assessment published in January 2021. The Company plans to embark on the initial tailings design programme subsequent to receiving the metallurgical testwork on the expected tailings product.
- The geotechnical work on the White Rock deposit is ongoing. Our consultant, Knight Piésold, has collected all the data to assess the rock mass characteristics and complete basic ground model development. Once complete, this data will feed into the mine design to maximise mining spans and assess ground control requirements for underground mining.
- Permitting and planning activities have continued after further consultations with the North Wales Minerals and Waste Planning Service. The next steps for this process include the scoping of the Environmental Impact & Social Assessment report. These activities remain ongoing.

Jo Battershill, Chief Executive of Anglesey Mining, commented: “With the final encouraging assay results now received, we can move onto the next round of workstreams for Parys Mountain. As previously highlighted, core will be sent to Grinding Solutions to conduct pre-concentration studies on representative samples from areas that are likely to be mined. We believe that the ability to selectively remove the unmineralized material would have a significant positive economic impact for the ongoing development studies.”

“Additionally, the intention of the recent drilling programme was to increase the resources in the Indicated category for the White Rock deposit, which stood at 4.7Mt, or 79% prior to commencing the drilling. Given the results have now all been received, we will look to update the Mineral Resource Estimate.”

“In other areas, we continue to progress the surveys required for the environmental baseline work and we will soon commence the initial design work for the tailings management facility. Both aspects are critical to progressing Parys Mountain through the permitting phase. Meanwhile, work on advancing the Northern Copper Zone is progressing well. As part of this process, Anglesey’s team has reviewed the historical drilling and resource model of the Northern Copper Zone with the aim of identifying prospective areas that would optimise future drilling programmes. We will focus on the zones that could have the most immediate impact on the mine design and production schedule. Historical drilling and internal reviews would suggest that the Northern Copper Zone could be significantly larger than the current resource estimate suggests, but additional drilling will be required to confirm this potential.”

¹ Zinc Equivalent (ZnEq %) = Zn grade % * Zn Recovery + (Cu grade % * Cu Recovery * (Cu price $/t / Zn price $/t)) + (Pb grade % * Pb Recovery * (Pb price $/t / Zn price $/t)) + (Ag grade g/t / 31.103 * Ag recovery * (Ag price $/oz / Zn price $/t)) + (Au grade g/t / 31.103 * Au recovery * (Au price $/oz / Zn price $/t))

Zn equivalent calculated using following commodity prices: Zn – US$1.25/lb, Cu – US$3.50/lb, Pb – US$1.00/lb, Ag – US$22.50/oz & Au – US$1750/oz

Zn Equivalent calculated using following recovery assumptions for White Rock deposit: Zn – 82%, Cu – 48%, Pb – 78%, Ag – 70% & Au -50%

Sample analysis and QA/QC

All samples generated from the drilling were dispatched to ALS Loughrea.

Samples were analysed for multi-element data analysis using their ME-ICP61 package, which includes Ag, Cu, Pb and Zn. The samples were also assayed for gold using their Au-AA23 analysis package. Overlimit assays were then analysed using their Ag-OG62, Cu-OG62, Pb-OG62, Zn-OG62 and ME-OG62 analysis packages.

For QA/QC purposes, Anglesey Mining used the industry standard of inserting 5% Certified Reference Material (CRM) samples, 2.5% Certified Blank Samples (Blanks) and 5% duplicate samples at source. The CRMs were sourced from Geostats Pty Ltd, Ore Research & Exploration Pty Ltd, OREAS and Natural Resources Canada.
