WIN SECURES KEY PROCESSING
INFRASTRUCTURE FOR RADIO GOLD PROJECT
Option secured over modular gravity processing plant to support
proposed 120,000tpa Radio Gold operation
HIGHLIGHTS
• WIN Metals Ltd has secured a six-month option to acquire a modular gravity processing
plant from Tungsten Mining NL (ASX:TGN), supporting development of the proposed Radio
Gold operation
• Modular gravity plant is well suited to WIN's proposed 120,000tpa Radio Gold operation and
underpins the Company's onsite processing strategy
• Previous metallurgical test work at Radio demonstrated gravity gold recoveries of up to 87%1
• Gravity plant comprises ROM Bin, conveyors, scrubber trommel, 245kw ball mill, screen,
spiral, jig and lamella thickener modules
• Option payment of $50,000 paid to secure rights to acquire complete plant within 6 months
of option by subsequent payment of $250,000 in cash and issue of $250,000 in shares priced
at 5-day VWAP at the time of option conversion
• Mining Engineering Services Australia Pty Ltd (MESA) engaged to advance engineering, cost
estimation and development planning for the proposed Radio processing facility
• Permitting activities have commenced to recommission the existing tailings dam and
process plant site
WIN Metals Ltd (ASX: WIN) (“WIN” or “the Company”) is pleased to advise that it has secured a
six-month option to acquire a modular gravity processing plant (MGP) from Tungsten Mining NL
(ASX:TGN), representing a significant step in advancing the Company's proposed onsite processing
strategy for the Radio Gold Project.
The MGP plant comprises the key grinding and gravity recovery infrastructure required to underpin
a proposed 120,000tpa gold processing facility and complete the front-end gold recovery circuit at
Radio.

Figure 1: Ball Mill and associated plant
The MGP plant was initially constructed in 2014 as a plant configured to liberate a tantalite
concentrate from pegmatite ore. The plant ran for approximately 1 month prior to being
decommissioned thereafter sitting idle until acquisition by Tungsten Mining in 2017. As can be
viewed below (Figures 6-17) the plant presents in excellent condition.
The attraction for WIN is the ball mill size and plant design capacity is an ideal fit for our intended
production rate of 120,000tpa or 15tph at the grind size indicated for maximum gold recovery.
With an option secured over this critical piece of infrastructure, detailed costing and design
integration can now be advanced.
Managing Director and CEO, Mr Steve Norregaard commented:
"Securing this option is another practical step towards bringing Radio into production. The plant is
well matched to the scale of the project and provides a fit-for-purpose processing solution that can
be integrated with the existing infrastructure already in place at site.
Our focus has always been on identifying the right development pathway for Radio while maintaining
capital discipline. The opportunity to acquire a near-new grinding and gravity circuit at a fraction of
replacement cost aligns strongly with that objective and has the potential to materially reduce
development capital requirements."
The Company has been evaluating processing options for its Radio Gold Project comparing the
relative merits of ore tolling and ore purchase agreements from a cost perspective compared with
options to build a fit for purpose gravity or gravity plus leach process plant onsite at the Radio Gold
Mine.
Ore tolling and ore purchase arrangements have been assessed by the Company and based on
current market conditions and available discussions, are considered less attractive than onsite
processing alternatives.

Securing an option over the Modular Gravity Plant and the work done to date to confirming suitability
will allow WIN to finalise costings and integration into the Company’s financial model for the
project, explore financing options thereafter and progress securing the necessary permits for the
proposed mining project.

RADIO Location and Project History
The Radio Gold Project is situated within the Shire of Yilgarn in Western Australia, approximately
8 km north of Bullfinch and 38km north of Southern Cross in the Eastern Goldfields region of
Western Australia. The site is accessed via the Mt Jackson Road, providing direct entry to the Project
area.
Figure 15: Location of Radio Gold Project
Gold mining at the Radio Gold Project commenced in 1918, with approximately 71,000 ounces
produced at an average head grade of 38 g/t Au between 1918 and 1974.
Underground operations were re‑established in 2018 using the existing shaft, followed by
development of a new surface portal and ~330 metres of decline to the historic second level. A
shallow open pit to ~25 metres depth was also completed however, most near surface
mineralisation remains unmined, providing potential for exploitation.
Historic production records for Repeater, Radio South and Green Harp are limited. Mining at
Repeater has been confined to a very shallow open pit (<5 m) and minor underground development,
while Radio South and Green Harp have been exploited via underground workings. Recent drilling at
Radio South has defined theextent of historical stoping,and historicmineplans for Green Harp have
been sourced to support ongoing geological and mining studies.
The Radio mine site remains intact and dewatered, with all necessary underground infrastructure in
place, ideally positioning the Project for rapid restart.
