• Significant mineralisation observed in Chile's Three Saints IOCG project
• Five new copper and gold targets identified at Los Loros
• Drilling at Ned's Creek progresses towards maiden resource estimate
• Expansion of landholding at Virgin Mountain for heavy rare earths
• Completion of $4.7M placement during the quarter

Lodestar Minerals Limited has released its June 2026 Quarterly Activities Report, highlighting significant progress across its diversified portfolio of copper, gold, and critical minerals projects. In Chile, the Three Saints IOCG Project showed promising results with visible copper and magnetite mineralisation confirmed in the second drill hole. Assays for the maiden drill hole validated the geological model and confirmed the presence of a large IOCG style mineral system. At Los Loros, geophysical surveys identified five new copper and gold targets within the Águila prospect. Drilling at Ned's Creek in Western Australia continued to support the Exploration Target of 250,000-300,000 oz Au in the range of 5-7 Mt at 1.0 - 1.7g/t Au. Additionally, Lodestar expanded its landholding at Virgin Mountain by ~40% to secure the extent of the mapped heavy rare earth element structural corridor. The company completed a $4.7M placement during the quarter to support its exploration activities.

Lodestar Minerals anticipates a catalyst-rich period with multiple opportunities to increase shareholder value, pending further exploration results.
