Established Australian copper-gold producer and explorer, Aeris Resources Limited
(ASX: AIS) (Aeris or the Company) is pleased to announce an updated Mineral
Resource estimate (MRE) for the Constellation deposit, located within the
Company’s 100% owned Tritton tenement package in New South Wales.
Aeris’ Executive Chairman, Andre Labuschagne, said, “This is a great outcome for
Aeris and confirms our confidence in Constellation becoming a major ore source
for Tritton in the near future. Focus will now turn to completing the feasibility study on
the deposit and declaring a maiden Ore Reserve. With over 5Mt now in Indicated
status, we have a strong foundation for this initial Ore Reserve.”
“The updated MRE features a substantially larger open-pittable deposit, potentially
transforming Tritton’s future mine plan outlook. This expansion could support a
significantly longer life open pit operation than initially anticipated, with potentially
3.2Mt of feed to the Tritton mill grading more than 2.5% copper and 0.8g/t gold 5.
The revised pit shell now incorporates the high-grade mineralisation associated with
the complex subvertical zone, simplifying the mine plan.”
“Finally, the strong gold grade of 0.66g/t materially improves the potential
economics of an operation at Constellation, particularly given the current high gold
price environment. Pleasingly, the latest metallurgical test works also shows very high
gold recoveries into concentrate of 83% from primary ore, significantly greater than
recoveries from historic Tritton deposits of around 50%6.”
CONSTELLATION MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE
An updated geological interpretation and Mineral Resource estimate (MRE) has
been completed for the Constellation deposit, incorporating results from an
additional 91 drill holes. The majority of these drill holes formed part of a resource
definition program aimed at converting Inferred material to an Indicated
classification. A small number of drill holes tested strike extensions beyond the
previously reported MRE, below the -200mRL level.
The March 2025 MRE for the Constellation deposit totals 7.6 million tonnes at 2.01
percent copper, 0.66 gram per tonne gold, 2.5 gram per tonne silver for 153
thousand tonnes of copper metal, 161 thousand ounces of gold metal and 608
thousand ounces of silver metal (see Table 1).
5 Comprises Indicated resource of 2.6Mt at 2.3% Cu, 0.9g/t Au and Inferred resource of 0.6Mt at 3.5% Cu, 0.5g/t Au subject
to conversion to an Ore Reserve.
6 Metallurgical recovery assumptions based on test work completed by Core Resources, who undertook testing across four
oxide, two supergene and 2 primary composite samples. Refer to page 16 and Appendix E for further details.

Geological understanding of the Constellation deposit has advanced significantly,
driven by closely spaced infill drilling and supported by detailed sectional
interpretations across the deposit. Importantly, the improved geological
interpretation, together with the additional drill hole data, has not resulted in
material changes to the modelled copper domains used for estimation.
The March 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate incorporates updated economic
parameters and is reported using net smelter return (NSR) cut-offs, which vary
depending on the mining method (open pit or underground) and processing route
(heap leach or flotation). Metal price assumptions applied include a copper price
of USD $10,337/t, gold at USD $2,797/oz, and silver at USD $33.67/oz, with an AUD:USD
exchange rate of 0.682.
A significant copper sequential assay program has been completed across the
Constellation deposit, encompassing oxide, supergene (transitional) and the upper
portion of fresh sulphide domains. The assay program was based on a 40m x 40m
drill hole spacing that has led to the refinement of the spatial extent of copper
7 Open pittable Mineral Resource figures are reported within a constraining pit shell applying the following metal price
and exchange rate assumptions: USD$10,337/t Cu, USD$2,797/oz Au, USD$33.67/oz Ag and AUD:USD 0.682. Cut-off
grade NSR of $18/t for open pit oxide, $59/t for open pit supergene/primary.

speciation domains, along with a better understanding of the internal copper
speciation ratios within each domain.
A reporting pit shell was used to report a potential open-pit Mineral Resource.
Copper oxide mineralisation was reported at a $18/t net smelter return (NSR) cutoff. Supergene and primary copper sulphides are reported at a $59/t NSR cut-off.
An underground mineral resource was reported from stope optimisation (SO) shapes
using a $108/t NSR. The Mineral Resource has been constrained using pit
optimisation and stope designs consistent with the JORC Code (2012) requirement
for Reasonable Prospects of Eventual Economic Extraction (RPEEE).
The March 2025 MRE is classified as Indicated and Inferred, based on 264 drill holes.
The Indicated Mineral Resource extends from near surface (~5m) to a depth of 330m
below surface and includes oxide, supergene and primary sulphide mineralisation.
Indicated Mineral Resource is reported from areas with a drill density up to a nominal
40m x 40m spacing within the conceptual pit shell and underground SO shapes. The
geological interpretation is consistent between drill sections, and grade continuity
is well understood. Inferred Mineral Resource is based on a nominal drill spacing up
to 80m (strike) x 100m (dip) where there is a sound conceptual understanding of the
geological framework and grade distribution. Inferred material is primarily located
in deeper, sparsely drilled portions of the deposit, beneath the Indicated Resource.
The Mineral Resource has been reported in accordance with the Australasian Code
for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves 2012 (JORC
Code). A summary of all assumptions used for reporting the Mineral Resource are
included in the Appendices.

CONSTELLATION MRE CHANGES
The updated 2025 Constellation MRE has resulted in a significant increase in both
the total Mineral Resource and the Indicated category (see Table 2). Key changes
reflect the completion of an extensive resource definition drilling program, revised
economic inputs (including updated metal prices), changes to reporting cut-off
methodology, and the inclusion of new mineralisation along strike (at depth)
following a limited resource extension drill program.
The total Mineral Resource has increased by 15% in tonnage, 24% in contained
copper metal, and 29% in contained gold metal (refer to Table 2). Key changes
contributing to this update are shown in Figures 3 and 4 and include:
1.4Mt and 33kt Cu metal have been added from extensional drilling, primarily
below the -200mRL level. These additions are shown under the
Additions/Adjustments tab on the waterfall chart.
A reduction of 0.5Mt and 8kt Cu metal resulting from applying $108/t SO shapes
for reporting underground Mineral Resource. This differs from the previous
approach, which reported at a 0.9% Cu cut-off grade on a block by block basis.
This is shown under the Spatial Constraint/Mining Factors tab.
The remaining changes are minor and associated Economic Factors (NSR cut-off
using updated metal price assumptions and recoverable copper from copper
speciation results) and Model Changes (thickness and grade variations within the
previously reported Mineral Resource).
The Indicated Mineral Resource has increased materially to 5.3Mt at 1.8% Cu, 0.7g/t
Au and 2.7g/t Ag, containing 94 kt copper metal, 112koz gold metal and 462koz of
silver metal. This represents a 133% increase in tonnage, 279% in contained copper
metal, and 333% in contained gold metal compared to the August 2022 Indicated
estimate10. Key changes contributing to this update are shown in Figures 5 and 6
and include:
1.9Mt and 42kt Cu metal have been added from reporting within a larger pit
shell. The updated pit shell incorporates revised metal price assumptions (refer to
Appendix E) and captures a greater proportion of the high-grade supergene
and primary copper sulphide domains. This is shown under the Spatial
Constraint/Mining Factors tab.
A reduction of 0.3Mt and 1kt Cu metal resulted from applying recoverable
copper from copper speciation assays, primarily impacting the copper oxide
mineralisation.

NEXT STEPS
Work at Constellation will now focus on the completion of the feasibility study on an
open pit and underground operation with ancillary surface infrastructure. The
feasibility study is expected to be complete in Q2 FY26 and will inform the release of
a maiden Ore Reserve estimate.
The Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for Constellation development has been
lodged with the NSW Department of Planning and Environment with determination
and the granting of the Mining Lease expected within CY25.
Upon completion of the feasibility study and receipt of final approvals, the project
will be submitted for final investment decision by the Aeris Board.
CONSTELLATION DEPOSIT - GEOLOGY
The Constellation deposit is hosted within the ‘early to mid’ Ordovician metasediments of the Girilambone Group, a sequence of highly deformed and strongly
foliated sandstones (psammites), quartzite, pelites, phyllite, chert and graphitic
shales with lesser mafic units. Regional metamorphism is of lower-to-middle
greenschist facies, with abundant quartz, muscovite, chlorite, and minor epidote.
Altered Alpine and Alaskan-type ultramafic bodies are also present, residing in the
east of the region. The deformation history of the area has resulted in the
development of shear zones, faults and multiple generations of folding, with two
prominent foliations developed. North-northwest post-orogenic monzodiorite
intrusions crosscut these older sequences.
The Constellation deposit bears marked similarities with other copper deposits
discovered within the Tritton Copper Operations tenement package, including the
large Tritton (+20Mt) and Murrawombie (+15Mt) deposits. These mineralised systems
are typically constrained by structural and lithological elements and form pipe-like
bodies. Deposits in the area, including Constellation, appear to correlate with zones
of structural complexity, with evidence that mineralisation occurred late in the
structural history. Folding and faulting in these structural domains have allowed for
dilation and transport of enriched fluids to precipitate copper +/- gold +/- silver
mineralisation within modified lithologic and structurally controlled positions.
The mineralisation style at Constellation comprises massive, banded to disseminated
sulphides with pyrite, chalcopyrite and minor pyrrhotite in the primary zones. There
are also well-developed oxide and supergene mineralised horizons. Within the
oxide domain, dominant copper minerals include malachite and azurite with minor
chrysocolla and native copper. Underlying the oxide horizon is a supergene domain
which is dominated by the presence of chalcocite with varying quantities of pyrite
and lesser chalcopyrite +/- malachite/azurite.
11 | P a g e
The highest copper grades occur in quartz-rich zones with chalcopyrite brecciainfill, and in chalcocite domains. The mineralised system plunges moderately to
the south-east (30°) and consists of two structural zones. The main zone dips
moderately to the east, and on its northern side, a steep zone (standup zone) is
present, which dips to the south. The orientation change of the system is both
shear and fold related.
The Constellation mineralised system has been traced 1,100m down plunge and
up to 300m along strike. The deposit remains open down plunge. Previously
reported DHEM surveying detected two large conductive bodies which extend
below the base of drilling15, providing encouragement that the mineralised system
remains open down-plunge and along the northern and southern boundaries.

Drilling and sampling techniques
Exploration and Resource Definition drilling has been undertaken using Reverse
Circulation (RC) and Diamond Drilling (DD) methods. RC pre-collars with diamond
drill tails (RCD) have also been used. Only assays from RC, RCD and DD drilling were
included in the dataset used to inform the resource model.
Drillhole information used to inform the March 2025 MRE includes a total of 110 RC
holes and 154 diamond holes for a total of 52,012.2m, of which 42,794.8m are
diamond core (82%). Drilling at the Constellation deposit was completed by DRC
Drilling and Durock Drilling, as contracting agents for Aeris Resources Limited. Drilling
to 200m below surface was primarily via RC drilling on a nominal 25m-30m x 25m30m drill spacing. Below 200m, all drilling has been completed via diamond drilling
methods. The drill spacing varies from 40m x 40m to 80m x 80-100m.
Diamond drill core was nominally sampled at 1.0m intervals; however, sample
lengths were primarily determined by geological boundaries, including lithology,
sulphide textures and visual copper mineral content. Sample intervals varied
between a minimum of 0.20m to a maximum 1.40m.
All diamond drill core was halved along the core axis using a core saw, with one
half dispatched for analysis and the other half retained in the original core tray. Half
core samples were sent to a certified sample preparation and assay laboratory.
Upon arrival at the laboratory, each sample was weighed and recorded.
Samples weighing more than 3 kg were crushed using a Boyd crusher (90% passing
2mm) and then split into a sub-sample of between 2 and 3 kg using a rotary splitter.
The sub-sample was pulverised and homogenised using an LM5 mill to 80% passing
75µm. A, 300g sample was taken from the pulverised material for assaying.
Samples weighing less than 3kg were crushed via a jaw crusher to 70% passing 6mm,
and the whole sub-sample was pulverised and homogenised in an LM5 with a 300g
sub-sample taken for assaying.
Sample recoveries from the RC drill program averaged greater than 90%. An
assessment of recovery was visually made at the drill rig from sample return to the
cyclone. One metre composite chip sub samples were collected from the cyclone
splitter off the RC drill rig. All RC sample chips were logged by the on-site geologist
in 1m intervals. Based on the observed geology, either 1m or 4m sample intervals
were selected for laboratory analysis. The intent was to ensure samples that were
within or proximal to copper mineralisation were sampled at 1m intervals.
Sample blanks and certified reference materials (industry standards) were routinely
submitted at a frequency of 1 in 20. Field duplicates were retained from RC holes
and re-submitted periodically to test assay reproducibility.
14 | P a g e
Modelled Domains
All geological domain wireframes used for the resource model are based on 1m
composited drillhole data. For each estimated variable (copper, gold, silver,
sulphur, iron and density), distinct populations were identified from statistical analysis
and grade distributions viewed spatially in 3D. Domain wireframes were generated
for the estimated elements based on grade shells, except for the weathering profiles
that were based on drill logs. The copper domains were created within a 0.1%
copper grade shell in the oxide domain, and 0.3% copper grade shells in the
supergene and primary sulphide (chalcopyrite) mineralisation (based on copper
sequential data analysis) Different grade shells were created for gold, silver and
sulphur/iron domaining based on statistical analysis of assay data. The iron and
sulphur are highly correlated elements and, therefore, were estimated in the same
grade domains.
Estimation parameters
Aeris Resources has completed data validation, QA/QC, geological interpretation,
geological modelling, and resource estimation internally.
All data collected from the exploration and resource definition drill program at
Constellation is stored within the company’s acQuire database.
Ordinary Kriging (OK) was used for estimating copper, gold, silver, sulphur, iron, and
density within a block model with a parent block size of 10.0 m (east) x 10.0 m (north)
x 5.0 m (RL). The block model is subdivided into cells with a minimum size of 1.0m x
1.0m x 1.25m to ensure accurate volumes are reported from each estimation
domain. Grade estimates within each sub block are awarded the parent block
grade. Kriging neighbourhood analysis was performed to determine an appropriate
block size and sample selection protocols.
The application of a top-cut was considered for each estimation domain
(mineralised and background) for all elements. Most estimation domains applied a
top-cut to exclude outlier high grades. The assessment of top-cuts was completed
through statistical analyses (histogram distribution, lognormal probability plots, and
summary statistics) and by reviewing the spatial location, continuity, and continuity
of grade trends. All contacts are treated as hard domain boundaries based on
reviewing grade trends between adjoining estimation domains. Different search
parameters and variogram models were used as deemed appropriate for the
specifics of each estimation domain.
The resource model was validated using a variety of methods, including visual and
statistical approaches. These methods included comparing declustered composite
data against the OK block estimates within each estimation domain and a visual
comparison of estimated block grades against the composited data.
15 | P a g e
Mineral Resource Classification
The March 2025 Constellation MRE has been classified as Indicated and Inferred,
based on drill density and confidence in the geological interpretation and grade
estimation.
Indicated Mineral Resource is reported from areas with a drill density up to 40m x
40m with a good understanding of the geology and copper grade continuity.
Inferred Mineral Resource is classified within areas with wider drill spacing, up to 80m
along strike and 100m along the dip plane. Geological understanding is
appropriate at the domain scale, and there is some understanding of mineralisation
between drillholes.
Cut-off grade/reporting criteria
The March 2025 Constellation MRE has been reported using Net Smelter Return (NSR)
cut-off values to reflect the potential open pit and underground Mineral Resources.
A range of NSR cut-off values has been used to report the Mineral Resource, taking
into consideration the mining method and processing stream. Key input parameters
used for the NSR valuation include metal prices (AUD$10,337/t copper,
AUD$2,797/oz gold, AUD$33.67/oz silver, variable operating costs, processing
streams, and metallurgical recoveries.
Potential open-pittable Mineral Resource is reported within a conventional LerchsGrossmann Pit optimisation shell generated using Maxflow algorithm.
Copper oxide mineralisation is reported at a $18/t NSR cut-off, while supergene and
primary copper sulphide mineralisation is reported at a $59/t NSR cut-off. The cost
difference reflects the different processing streams: heap leach for copper oxide
and flotation for the supergene and primary copper sulphide domains.
The underground Mineral Resource is reported from within SO shapes at a $108/t
NSR cut-off.
Metallurgical recovery assumptions are based on a test work program completed
by Core Resources, who undertook testing across eight (8) Constellation composites
encompassing the different mineralised horizons. In total, analysis was completed
on four oxide, two supergene and two primary composites.
Oxide
Bottle roll and column leach tests were performed on oxide composites and
revealed variable copper recovery across the oxide deposit. However, leach
performance was well predicted by the acid soluble proportion within the copper
16 | P a g e
speciation test (copper sequential assay), with recovered metal matching the acidsoluble copper assay. Therefore, recovery within the oxide domain is outlined as:
Cu recovery 100% (of acid soluble Cu assay), Au recovery 0%, Ag recovery
0%
Supergene
Composites were subjected to flotation tests based on standard Tritton operating
conditions. Flotation results were favorable with rougher only flotation resulting in
high metal recovery (Cu recovery +97%, Au recovery 86.7%) to saleable
concentrate grades (24.4% Cu). Due to the limited volume of tests, a more
conservative copper recovery reflecting that applied to other Tritton orebodies has
been applied.
Cu recovery 94.5%, Au recovery 86.7%, Ag recovery 34.7%
Primary
Composites were subjected to flotation tests based on standard Tritton operating
conditions. Again, flotation results were favorable with locked cycle flotation
resulting in high metal recovery (Cu recovery +96.6%, Au recovery 87.1%) to saleable
concentrate grades (23.1% Cu). Due to the limited volume of tests, a more
conservative copper recovery reflecting that applied to other Tritton orebodies has
been applied.
Cu recovery 94.5%, Au recovery 87.1%, Ag recovery 83.1%
Underground stope optimisation
Based on the Constellation deposit geometry, the sub-level open stoping (SLOS)
mining method was selected as the basis for inventory shape generation. The Deswik
Stope Optimiser (SO) software was used to generate shapes that satisfy the
Reasonable Prospects of Eventual Economic Extraction (RPEE) requirement. The SO
process considered various stope designs, and cost and revenue parameters to
establish inventory shape extents. Inventory shapes intersecting the reporting pit
shell have been excluded.
Shape geometry has been informed by the experience at other Tritton deposits with
a mix of transverse and longitudinal sub-level open stoping (SLOS) shapes
generated. The general SO parameters are presented in Table 3 below.
