Shallow Copper Intersected in Maiden Drilling at Emu,
Mt Carrington
Intercept of 9m at 1.0% Cu and 3.9g/t Ag from 32m returned from the Emu Prospect,
outside the current 1.6Moz AuEq Mt Carrington Mineral Resource (MRE)i
HIGHLIGHTS
• Final assay results received from the Phase 1 diamond drilling campaign at the Emu Prospect.
• Results support the continuity of higher-grade copper mineralisation at depth below the historical
open pit mine, with multiple holes returning encouraging copper and zinc-copper results:
o 9m at 1.0% Cu and 3.9g/t Ag from 32m, incl. 1m at 2.7% Cu and 6.9g/t Ag from 34m (EMDD004).
o 9m at 0.23% Cu from 40m, incl. 1m at 1.15% Cu and 5.5g/t Ag from 40m (EMDD003).
o Approximately 760m to the west of Emu, drilling at the Ginnies Prospect also intersected a series
of silver-gold-rich lead-zinc veins above a zinc-copper zone, with assays including:
o 10m at 3.4% Zn and 0.3% Cu from 150m, within 16m at 2.44% Zn, 0.20% Cu and 2.5g/t Ag from
144m, incl. 1m at 11.05% Zn, 1.18% Cu and 4.3g/t Ag from 158m (EMDD007).
• This large hydrothermal system suggests the opportunity for higher gold and silver grades at depth.
COPPER POTENTIAL
• Copper is widespread across the Mt Carrington Project but has been underexplored relative to the
extensive exploration and mining of gold and silver in the district.
• The Mt Carrington Mineral Resource Estimate contains 40kt of Cui
, with significant copper
intersected in historical drilling, including:
o 18.9m at 5.8% Cu from 58m and 10.1m at 7.26% Cu from 88mii
and new, broader intercepts by
Legacy Minerals including 95m at 0.13% Cu (outside the 2026 Mineral Resource)iii
.
NEXT STEPS - DISCOVERY
• Follow-up drilling is planned at Emu to test extensions of the copper zones.
• Assays from further drilling at Mascotte are expected in Decemberiv
Management Comment Legacy Minerals CEO and Managing Director, Christopher Byrne, said:
"We believe that copper has an important role to play alongside gold and silver at Mt Carrington and
forms part of our regional discovery focus. This is the first time the Emu area has been drilled in over 50
years and encouragingly, our initial holes have returned shallow sulphide copper next to the old Emu
Mine intersecting 9m at 1% Cu from just 32m. On top of that, step-out drilling over 700m away has
delivered a brand-new zinc-copper-silver zone with gold-bearing veins at the Ginnies Prospect, an area
with no previous drilling.
These results add another mineralised centre to the Mt Carrington Project, kilometres away from the
current Mineral Resource area. Follow-up exploration is planned, with further drilling approvals
underway as well as pending assays from drilling at Mascotte. We are also progressing well with the
larger Scoping Study, based on the increased 1.6Moz AuEq MRE, which is on track to released shortly."

Legacy Minerals Holdings Limited (ASX: LGM, "LGM", "the Company" or "Legacy Minerals") is pleased
to report final assay results from the Phase 1 diamond drilling program at the Emu Copper-Gold
Prospect, within its Mt Carrington Project in northern New South Wales (EL6273, EL9616, EL9727,
ALA75)4F
v
.
Emu Prospect
Holes EMDD001 to EMDD005 were drilled from three pads to test the Emu Alteration Halo SE target
and the down-dip and along-strike extensions of the historical Emu Creek copper mine workings.
Shallow copper mineralisation was intersected in three holes, including 10m at 0.92% Cu and 3.6g/t
Ag from 31m in EMDD004 (including 9m at 1.01% Cu and 3.9g/t Ag from 32m), 9m at 0.23% Cu from
40m in EMDD003 (including 1m at 1.15% Cu and 5.5g/t Ag from 40m), and 4m at 0.28% Cu from 101m
in EMDD001 (Table 2 and Figure 1). EMDD002 and EMDD005 did not return intercepts of note beyond
narrow 1m intervals (Table 2) but carry sericite alteration over most of their length, confirming they
sit within the halo of the system.
Figure 1. Emu Prospect cross-section (looking north-west) through EMDD003 and EMDD004 showing the
shallow, gently dipping copper zone.
Copper mineralisation at the Emu Prospect is hosted in dacitic volcanics with sericite alteration and
occurs in sulphide-rich, strongly silicified zones as chalcopyrite-pyrite-sulphide fracture fill veins. The
copper zones carry elevated silver and bismuth, a signature typical of the hotter, intrusion-proximal
position in porphyry-epithermal systems. Zinc is consistently elevated over tens of metres in all five
holes, defining a broad sulphide halo around the copper structures. The intercepts indicate a flat-lying
to shallow-dipping copper zone geometry with potential for vertical feeder structures. The zone is
open to the south-west, east and along strike (Figure 3).

Holes EMDD006 to EMDD008 were drilled at the Ginnies Prospect, located approximately 760m west
of the Emu Prospect, where soil geochemistry, radiometrics and the Emu Mobile Magnetotelluric (MT)
feature defined the target. EMDD006 and EMDD007 were drilled as a scissor pair from a single pad,
to the north-west and south-east respectively (Table 2 and Figure 2). EMDD007 intersected new,
previously unknown polymetallic sulphide mineralisation of 16m at 2.44% Zn, 0.20% Cu and 2.5g/t Ag
from 144m, including 10m at 3.38% Zn and 0.27% Cu from 150m and 1m at 11.05% Zn, 1.18% Cu and
4.3g/t Ag from 158m, beneath a series of silver-gold-rich lead-zinc veins that include 1m at 1.25g/t Au,
27.7g/t Ag, 3.06% Zn, 1.42% Pb and 0.39% Cu from 103m, 2m at 24.1g/t Ag, 1.47% Zn and 0.82% Pb
from 19m, and 1m at 1.58g/t Au and 7.4g/t Ag from 134m. EMDD006 returned 2m at 14.0g/t Ag,
0.53% Pb and 0.73% Zn from 6m, and EMDD008 returned 1m at 0.31% Cu and 1.34% Zn from 188m.
In EMDD007, the mineralisation is hosted by an andesite unit between 19m and 137m, sitting above
dacite.

Emu Copper-Gold Prospect Overview
The Emu Prospect lies on a regional caldera-margin trend within the Mt Carrington Project,
approximately 8km north of Drake, NSW, within EL6273. It is a priority regional target identified as a
discrete porphyry-epithermal target through the integration of historical geological mapping, surface
sampling and recent airborne Mobile MT geophysics. The Emu target area contains the historical Emu
Creek copper mine, originally worked as a shaft developed on an outcropping zone of copper
carbonates before an open cut mine was operated between 1966 and 19715F

The completed Phase 1 program comprised eight diamond drillholes for a total of 1,600m across five
drill pad sites, providing the first modern drill test of the two targets defined by the airborne Mobile
MT survey: the Emu Porphyry Core, a deep, low-resistivity feature interpreted as a potential porphyry-
style intrusive body; and the Emu Alteration Halo SE, a shallow zone of elevated resistivity interpreted
as a silicified alteration halo (Figure 4)6F
vii
.
Next Steps
Follow-up drilling is planned at Emu to test extensions of the copper zone in EMDD004 and the zinc-
copper-silver zone in EMDD007, and to test the target at depth and along strike. Assay results from
the Phase 2 diamond drilling program at the Mascotte Silver-Gold Prospect are expected in December
2026 and January 2027. Activities across the broader Mt Carrington Project continue in parallel,
including the Optimised Scoping Study being completed by Ausenco and WSP7F

Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data
Criteria JORC Code Explanation Commentary
Sampling
Techniques
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g., cut
channels, random chips, or specific
specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as down
hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF
instruments, etc). These examples should
not be taken as limiting the broad meaning
of sampling.
Core size analysed was HQ core (diameter: 63.5mm)
to end of hole (EOH). LGM used a reputable drilling
contractor, GeoDrill, with a suitable rig. Diamond drill
core provides a high-quality sample that is logged for
lithological, structural, geotechnical, and other
attributes. Sub-sampling of the core is carried out as
per industry best practice.
Include reference to measures taken to
ensure sample representivity and the
appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.
Downhole surveys of dip and azimuth are conducted
using a single shot camera every 30m, and using a
downhole Gyro when required, to detect deviations of
the hole from the planned dip and azimuth. The drill‐
hole collar locations are recorded using a hand‐held
GPS, which has an accuracy of +/‐ 5m. All drill‐hole
collars may be surveyed to a greater degree of
accuracy using a certified surveyor at a later date. An
Olympus Vanta pXRF is used to spot analyse the drill
core onsite. Readings are taken to help identify
minerals and alteration with field calibration of the
pXRF instrument using standards periodically
performed. The handheld pXRF results are only used
for preliminary assessment of element compositions,
prior to the receipt of assay results from the certified
laboratory. The drill core was orientated using
suitable core orientation tool by the drilling
contractor with LGM staff supervision. These
orientations are extended onto the remainder of the
core and meter marks for logging. The visible
structural features (veins, bedding, foliation, faults)
are measured against the core orientation marks. The
drill core was cut in half, and assayed at a certified
assay laboratory, ALS Laboratories. Core is prepared
for analysis by cutting along the longitudinal line and
then samples are numbered as per the pre-designed
cut-sheet. The core is selectively sampled down the
drill string at 1m nominal intervals across the
mineralised zones, unless selected geological or
mineralisation boundaries. A certified sample

INTERACTIVE INVESTOR HUB
standard is inserted a minimum 1:50 samples.
Standards may also be added according to geology.
Where core was incompetent due to being
transported cover or weathered rock, representative
samples were collected along the axis of the core.
Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to the
Public Report. In cases where ‘industry
standard’ work has been done this would
be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse
circulation drilling was used to obtain 1m
samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to
produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In
other cases more explanation may be
required, such as where there is coarse
gold that has inherent sampling problems.
Unusual commodities or mineralisation
types (e.g., submarine nodules) may
warrant disclosure of detailed information.
Drill sampling: The drill core was cut by LGM staff.
Samples were transported to ALS Laboratory in
Brisbane for assaying. Samples are crushed to 6mm
and then pulverized to 85% passing 75 microns. A 50g
split of the sample was fire assayed for gold. The
lower detection limit for gold is 0.002 ppm, which is
believed to be an appropriate detection level. All
other elements including copper and base metals
(total 48 element suite) are analysed using a 4-acid
acid digest and an ICP finish (ALS code: ME-MS61 +
Au-AA22). Assay standards, blanks and duplicates
were analysed as part of the standard laboratory
analytical procedures. Company standards were also
introduced into the sampling stream at a ratio
minimum of 1 standard for every 50 samples. Sample
length: Core is sampled in 0.2m to 2m sample interval
lengths except for minor changes due to geological or
mineralisation boundaries. Pulps are retained by LGM
for potential follow-up analysis.
Drilling
techniques
Drill type (e.g., core, reverse circulation,
open‐hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger,
Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (e.g. core
diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of
diamond tails, face sampling bit or other
type, whether core is oriented and if so, by
what method, etc).
Diamond drilling using industry standard techniques.
PQ core (diameter: 85mm) to fresh rock followed by
HQ core (diameter: 63.5mm) to end of hole (EOH).
Drill sample
recovery
Method of recording and assessing core
and chip sample recoveries and results
assessed.
Core is measured and marked after each drill run
using wooden blocks calibrating depth. Adjusting rig
procedures as necessary including, drilling rate, run
length and fluid pressure to maintain sample integrity.
Measures taken to maximise sample
recovery and ensure representative nature
of the samples.
Core is measured and marked after each drill run
using wooden blocks calibrating depth.
Whether a relationship exists between
sample recovery and grade and whether
sample bias may have occurred due to
preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse
material.
To date, no sample recovery issues have been
identified that would impact on potential sample bias.
Logging Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a
level of detail to support appropriate
Mineral Resource estimation, mining
studies and metallurgical studies.
Systematic geological and geotechnical logging was
undertaken. Data collection where appropriate
includes; Nature and extent of lithologies;
Relationship between lithologies: Amount and mode
of occurrence of ore minerals; Location, extent and
nature of structures such as bedding, cleavage, veins,
faults etc. Structural data (alpha & beta) are recorded
for orientated core; Geotechnical data is collected as
required including recovery, RQD, fracture frequency,
qualitative IRS, microfractures, veinlets and number
of defect sets. For some geotechnical holes the
orientation, nature of defects and defect fill may be
recorded; Representative bulk density by Archimedes
principle may be taken; Magnetic susceptibility
recorded at 1m intervals for some holes as an
orientation and alteration characterisation tool.

Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or costean,
channel, etc) photography.
Logging records lithology, mineralogy, mineralisation,
veins, structures, weathering, colour and other
noticeable features. This is generally qualitative
except for % of sulphides and vein mineral content.
Core trays are photographed in dry and wet form.
The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections logged.
All drill holes are geologically logged in full.
Sub‐sampling
techniques and
sample
preparation
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether
quarter, half or all core taken.
Core is being cut using a conventional automatic core
saw with core holding support. All samples are
collected from the same side of drill core where
possible. A half-core sample was submitted for assay
analysis. Where core was incompetent due to being
transported cover, weathered rock, or soft rock due
to faulting, representative samples were collected
along the axis of the core. This information is
recorded in the cut-sheet and loaded into database.
If non‐core, whether riffled, tube sampled,
rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet
or dry.
Not applicable as results are for core drilling.
For all sample types, the nature, quality
and appropriateness of the sample
preparation technique.
Drill core is cut in half along the length and the total
half core submitted as the sample. This procedure
meets industry standards where approximately 50%
of the total sample taken from the diamond core is
submitted. All mineralised intervals and surrounding
wall rock were submitted for assay. Sample weights
are recorded by the lab. Samples are delivered by
Legacy Minerals Holdings personnel to ALS Minerals
Laboratory, Brisbane, QLD. Sample preparation will
comprise of an industry standard of drying, jaw
crushing and pulverising to -75 microns (85% passing)
(ALS code PUL-23). Pulverisers are washed with QAQC
tests undertaken (PUL-QC). Samples are dried,
crushed and pulverized to produce a homogenous
representative sub‐sample for analysis.
Quality control procedures adopted for all
subsampling stages to maximise
representivity of samples.
Quality control procedures include submission of
Certified Reference Materials (standards) and
duplicates with each sample batch. QAQC results are
routinely reviewed to identify and resolve any issues.
All sub-sampling of the prepared core is completed by
the laboratory. No sub-sampling is completed by LGM.
Measures taken to ensure that the
sampling is representative of the in situ
material collected, including for instance
results for field duplicate/second‐half
sampling.
The remaining half-core is stored and allows assay
values to be viewed against the geology; and, where
required, further samples may be submitted for
quality assurance. Quarter core resampling may be
completed in zones where appropriate.
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to
the grain size of the material being
sampled.
The sample sizes are appropriate to correctly
represent the mineralization based on style of
mineralisation.
Quality of assay
data and
laboratory tests
The nature, quality and appropriateness of
the assaying and laboratory procedures
used and whether the technique is
considered partial or total.
All samples were analysed by ALS Global. Samples
were crushed to 6mm and then pulverized to 85%
passing 75 microns. Gold is determined using a 50g
charge. The resultant prill is dissolved in aqua regia
with gold determined by flame AAS. The lower
detection limit for gold is 0.002 ppm, which is
believed to be an appropriate detection level. All
other elements are analysed using a 4-acid acid digest
and an ICP finish (ALS code: ME-MS61 + Au-AA22).

handheld XRF instruments, etc, the
No geophysical tools were used to determine any

parametres used in determining the
analysis including instrument make and
model, reading times, calibrations factors
applied and their derivation, etc.
Nature of quality control procedures
adopted (e.g. standards, blanks,
duplicates, external laboratory checks) and
whether acceptable levels of accuracy (i.e.
lack of bias) and precision have been
established.
Laboratory QAQC involves the use of internal lab
standards using certified reference material (CRMs),
blanks and pulp duplicates as part of in‐house
procedures. The Company also submits a suite of
CRMs and blanks where appropriate and selects
appropriate samples for duplicates. CRM’s are
inserted approximately every 50 samples. Sample
preparation checks for fineness are performed by the
laboratory to ensure the grind size of 85% passing
75μm is being attained.
Verification of
sampling and
assaying
The verification of significant intersections
by either independent or alternative
company personnel.
Significant intersections are verified by the Company’s
technical staff.
The use of twinned holes. No twinned holes were completed in the current drill
programme.
Documentation of primary data, data entry
procedures, data verification, data storage
(physical and electronic) protocols.
Primary data is captured onto a laptop through excel
and using Mx Deposit software and includes
geological logging, sample data and QA/QC
information. This data, together with the assay data,
is stored both locally and entered into the LGM
central online database which is managed by external
consultants. All primary assay data is received from
the laboratory as electronic data files which are
imported into sampling database with verification
procedures in place. QAQC analysis is undertaken for
each laboratory report
Discuss any adjustment to assay data. No adjustments or calibrations will be made to any
primary assay data collected for the purpose of
reporting assay grades and mineralised intervals.
Location of data
points
Accuracy and quality of surveys used to
locate drill holes (collar and down‐hole
surveys), trenches, mine workings and
other locations used in Mineral Resource
estimation.
A handheld GPS was used to pick up collars with an
accuracy of +/- 5m. Downhole surveys are conducted
using a downhole Axis Champ North Seeking Gyro tool
during drilling to record and monitor deviations of the
hole from the planned dip and azimuth.
Specification of the grid system used. The grid system used is GDA94, MGA Zone 56
Quality and adequacy of topographic
control.
Data supplied in LiDAR datums as downloaded from
ELVIS in GDA2020, UTM zone 56 South in metres,
vertical datum AHD using AusGeoid2020 in metres.
Average horizontal accuracy: <= +/- 40cm @68%
confidence interval, average vertical accuracy: <= +/-
10cm @68% confidence interval.
Data spacing
and distribution
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration
Results.
The spacing and distribution of holes is not relevant to
the drilling programs which are at the exploration
stage rather than definition drilling. Drill holes were
preferentially located at those areas considered most
prospective.
Whether the data spacing and distribution
is sufficient to establish the degree of
geological and grade continuity
appropriate for the Mineral Resource and
Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and
classifications applied. Whether sample
compositing has been applied.
