 · Seeking divestment or joint venture partner

Alastair Clayton - Executive Chairman, Thor Energy Plc, commented:

"This quarter, we continued to focus on advancing our US Uranium assets,
whilst also evaluating other opportunities. The global push for clean energy
solutions, coupled with increasing demand for uranium, positions these assets
as key drivers of future growth.

"We successfully announced that drill preparations were underway in Colorado,
with drilling scheduled to commence this month, with the program including
infill and extension holes, seeking to complete a JORC mineral resource
estimation. Drilling is about to commence.

"The divestment of Molyhil and the sale of Bonya (EL29701) in the Northern
Territory reiterates our desire to establish our new core portfolio.

"Additionally, Thor and IVR have now formed a Molyhil Joint Venture (75%/25%)
resulting from the successful completion of Stage 1 of the A$1m exploration
expenditure, with IVR issuing A$250,000 worth of IVR shares to Thor. This JV
structure allows Thor to retain an interest in the Molyhil tungsten-molybdenum
project while reducing the financial commitments of further exploration and
development."

"Separately it was announced this morning that the Company has entered into a
binding agreement for the acquisition of an 80.2% stake in Go Exploration Pty
Ltd."

 

URANIUM AND VANADIUM PROJECTS (USA)

Thor holds a 100% interest in two US companies with mineral claims in Colorado
and Utah, USA (Figure 1). The claims host uranium and vanadium mineralisation
in an area known as the Uravan Mineral Belt, which has a history of high-grade
uranium and vanadium production. Within an economical transport distance is
the only uranium and vanadium processing facility in the region (Energy Fuels,
White Mesa Mill), which may enable a low-hurdle processing option for any
production from these projects. Details of the projects may be found on the
Thor website
(https://thorenergyplc.com/projects/uranium-vanadium-projects-usa/) .

 

Wedding Bell and Radium Mountain Project, Colorado:

On-ground drill site preparations are now underway for our drilling programs
at Rim Rock and Groundhog mine areas, with drilling scheduled to commence in
October (Figure 1).

The RC program includes infill and extension holes following up on Thor's
successful 2022 and 2023 program, to complete a JORC mineral resource
estimation.

At Groundhog, infill drilling will be centred around high-grade uranium and
vanadium mineralisation intercepted in 23WBRA020 (ASX/AIM: 29 February 2024
(https://www.londonstockexchange.com/news-article/THR/high-grade-uranium-and-vanadium-assays-results/16354166)
), with extension holes up to 300m to the north and east (Figure 3).

23WBR020:         4.9m @ 1199ppm (0.12%) U(3)O(8) and 6306ppm (0.63%)

COPPER PROJECTS (SA)

Thor holds direct and indirect interest in over 400,000 tonnes of Inferred
copper resources in South Australia, via its 80% farm-in interest in Alford
East copper-gold Project and its 26.3% equity interest in ECL in Kapunda and
Alford West (Figure 3).

Each of these projects is considered by the Thor directors to have significant
growth potential, and each is being advanced towards development via low-cost,
environmentally friendly ISR techniques.

 

 

Alford East Copper-Gold Project

Environmental approvals were granted for a future diamond drilling program,
and to construct wells and conduct further hydrogeological baseline studies
for ISR assessment at Alford East.

 

Next Steps:

§ Drill preparations (based on drill targeting from Ambient Noise Tomography
and structural modelling)

§ Pump testing and preparations for push/pull connectivity testing, followed
by Site Environmental Lixiviant Trial

Kapunda and Alford West Copper Projects

Thor holds a 26.3% equity interest in the private Australian company,
EnviroCopper Limited. In turn, ECL has agreed to earn, in two stages, up to
75% of the rights over metals which may be recovered via ISR contained in the
Kapunda deposit from Australian listed company, Terramin Australia Limited
("Terramin" ASX: "TZN"), and rights to 100% of the Alford West copper project.
Information about ECL and its projects can be found on the EnviroCopper
website (http://www.envirocopper.com.au/) .

Alford West

§ Three water bores were installed with initial hydrogeological baseline
assessment completed (results pending). Subsequent push-pull and tracer
testing were planned as part of the first phase of ISR SELT.

§ If these ISR trials are successful, they will significantly increase the
potential to extract economic copper via ISR along the Alford Copper Belt.
This area of known copper oxide resources extends over 50km along the contact
between the Tickera Granite and the Wallaroo Metasediments.

Kapunda

Five spot ISR pattern of wells installed, with all baseline environmental and
hydrogeological test work completed. Planning for SELT Circulation Trials is
continuing, in conjunction with regulatory approvals.

 

TUNGSTEN PROJECT (NT)

 

Molyhil Tungsten - Molybdenum-Copper Project - NT (100% Thor)

The Molyhil tungsten-molybdenum-copper deposit is 100% owned by Thor and is
located 220km north-east of Alice Springs (320km by road) within the
prospective polymetallic province of the Proterozoic Eastern Arunta Block in
the Northern Territory.

The deposit consists of two adjacent outcropping iron-rich skarn bodies, the
northern 'Yacht Club' lode and the 'Southern' lode.

Thor executed an A$8m Farm-in and Funding Agreement through a HoA with
Investigator Resources Limited operating as Fram Ltd (Fram) (ASX: IVR) to
accelerate exploration at the Molyhil Project on 24 November 2022 and the sale
of Thor's interest in the Bonya tenement (EL29701) (ASX/AIM: 24 November 2022
(https://www.londonstockexchange.com/news-article/THR/farm-in-funding-agreement-molyhil-project/15728495)
).

A full background on the project is available on the Thor website
(https://thorenergyplc.com/projects/molyhil-tungsten-project/) .

Formation of the Joint Venture

Under the execution of the Stage 1 obligations, a JV Agreement was executed
between Fram and Molyhil on 13 August 2024 ("JV Commencement Date"). The
initial JV interests of the parties are 25% Fram and 75% Molyhil in Molyhil,
with the 40% sale of Bonya EL29701 ((Table 1 and 2) (ASX/AIM: 14 August
(https://www.londonstockexchange.com/news-article/THR/farm-in-funding-agreement-molyhil-project/15728495)
2024)).

On the formalisation of Fram's 25% JV interest, IVR has issued Thor 5 million
IVR shares.

25% of Moyhil tenements and Thor's 40% interest in Bonya EL29701 are currently
in the process of being transferred to Fram.

 

Bonya JV- Jervois Vanadium Projects (40% Thor)

The Bonya copper, tungsten and vanadium deposits are located approximately
30km to the northeast of Molyhil (Figure 7). Thor, in a joint venture with
Arafura, holds a 40% equity interest in the resources. Thor's interest in the
Bonya tenement EL29701 (copper and tungsten deposit) is currently being
divested as part of the Farm-in and Funding Agreement with Investigator
Resources Limited.

 

GOLD/COPPER PROJECT

Ragged Range Project (WA)

The Ragged Range Project, located in the prospective Eastern Pilbara Craton,
Western Australia is 100% owned by Thor - E46/1190, E46/1262, E46/1355,
E46/1340 and E46/1393.

Since the acquisition, Thor has conducted several programs of stream sediment
and soil sampling to delineate drill targets. Thor has also flown an airborne
magnetics survey over the tenement area to better define the structural
features of the area.

As Thor focuses on its uranium and energy metal projects, a divestment or
joint venture partner is being sought for the Ragged Range Project. This
project has potential for gold, copper-gold, lithium, and nickel. With the
change in focus of Thor Energy towards critical minerals in the energy and
green economy, this group of tenements is no longer considered core in Thor's
exploration portfolio.

      to meet its business objectives and, if so, on what basis?
