Announcement PDF ASX RELEASE ASX Announcement 1st November 2024 Catalina Resources is an Australian diversified mineral exploration and mine development company. Directors Executive Chairman and Company Secretary Sanjay Loyalka Director Richard Beazley Director Michael Busbridge Director Martin Bennett ASX Code CTN Catalina intersects 44m at 1.01g/t gold at Laverton Highlights • Broad zone of gold mineralization intersected • Best intersections include 44m at 1.01g/t Au from 44m including 4m at 2.22g/t Au and 4m of 6632ppm TREO • Follow up RC drilling being planned to test mineralized zone at depth Catalina Resources Ltd (ASX: CTN) (“Catalina” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the assay results of the aircore drilling completed at the Laverton Project (E38/3697) in September 2024 (Figure 1,4). A significant zone of gold mineralization (Figure 2) has been identified along the interpreted trend of the Barnicoat Shear Zone. The results include a gold intersection of 44m @ 1.01g/t Au in LVAC049 that includes 4m @ 2.22g/t Au, 4m @ 1.96g/t Au and 8m @ 1.45g/t Au. CONTACT DETAILS Unit 38 18 Stirling Highway NEDLANDS WA 6009 T +61 8 61181672 E info@catalinaresources.com.au The mineralisation in LVAC049 extends to the end of the composite sampled interval. LVAC049 is close to LVAC012 that returned 3m @ 1.07g/t Au and LVAC009 that returned 1m @ 2.42g/t Au from the previous program completed in February 2024. The results have also extended the mineralised footprint of rare earth element (“REE”) around several intrusion related point source magnetic anomalies. Catalina’s Executive Chairman, Sanjay Loyalka said “We continue to be encouraged by the results at Laverton. The gold intersection in LVAC049 confirms the previous results in holes LVAC012 and LVAC009 and in combination with the intersections in LVAC038, LVAC039 and LVAC043 appears to suggest a broad NNW trending zone, primarily in the laterite Catalina Resources Limited ACN: 130 618 683 W: www.catalinaresources.com.au ASX RELEASE. Page 2 of 22 (supergene) and significantly upgrades the prospectivity of the gold target area. This intersection is a material upgrade to the width and grades reported in the previous program with one four-meter interval greater than 2g/t Au. While providing confirmation of the original intersection in LVAC012 and LVAC009, it also suggests the hole is closer to the source of the gold mineralization which is interpreted to be a splay of the Barnicoat Shear Zone”. E38/3697 is located within the Laverton Gold Province, an exceptionally well-mineralized terrain in the Eastern Goldfields, Western Australia. The region hosts several world class deposits of gold, nickel, and rare earth elements (REE) including Sunrise Dam (>10Moz Au), Granny Smith (>8Moz Au), Windara Nickel (combined 85k tonnes of nickel sulphide) and the Mt Weld REE deposit (Mineral Resource of 54.7 Mt @ 5.3% TREO). The Mt Weld (REE) operation is only 2 kms to the south and the Granny Smith gold Mine is 8km to the west (Figure 1). The aircore drilling program conducted in September 2024 comprising twenty-seven holes for 1,801m (Figure 1, Appendix 1) was completed to in-fill and extend a reconnaissance drilling program conducted in March 2024 that intersected encouraging gold and REE values. Reported assay results in this announcement are based on 4m composites taken downhole that were submitted to the Bureau Veritas Laboratory in Perth for analysis for low level gold, nickel and REE. The 1m sample splits for mineralized 4m composite samples have been collected from the field and submitted for more accurate Fire Assay analysis for gold and peroxide fusion analysis of REEs. Results will be reported when available in the next few weeks. These assay methods are more accurate than the method used for the 4m composite samples and may upgrade the results reported. Gold Targets Fifteen aircore holes were drilled in four traverses to in-fill and extend previous drilling that intersected gold mineralization along the interpreted strike of the Barnicoat Shear Zone between the Lily Pond Well and Pendergast gold prospects (Figure 2). Previously reported wide-spaced reconnaissance holes, LVA009 to LVAC016, drilled in February 2024 identified a 300m wide supergene gold anomaly north of the Prendergast Well South gold prospect centered on intersections of 3m at 1.07g/t Au from 49m in LVAC012 and 1m at 2.42g/t Au from 75m in LVAC0091. ASX RELEASE. Page 3 of 22 Figure 1: Location of drill collars (LVAC0026-52) within E38/3697 The follow-up aircore drilling completed in September comprised 100m spaced east-west orientated traverses north and south of the original drill traverse. The holes intersected a deeply weathered laterite profile overlying fine to medium grained sediments with intervals of fine ferruginous veining, minor quartz and alteration. ASX RELEASE. Page 4 of 22 A hole in-filling the original traverse to 50m spacing near LVAC012 intersected a broad of mineralization in the laterite profile: 44m at 1.01g/t Au from 44m in LVAC049 Includes: 4m at 2.22g/t Au from 48m 4m at 1.96g/t Au from 64m 8m at 1.45g/t Au from 72m Figure 2: September 2024 aircore results – Gold Importantly the reconnaissance drill traverses 100m and 200m south of hole LVAC049 also intersected mineralization. LVAC043 intersected 4m at 0.33g/t Au from 76m, LVAC038 intersected 4m at 0.54g/t Au from 56m and LVAC039 intersected 4m @ 0.38g/t Au from 64m. These holes delineate a broad zone of gold anomalism that trends north northwest, possibly parallel to the Barnicoat Shear Zone (Figure 2). ASX RELEASE. Page 5 of 22 REE Targets Previous reconnaissance drilling completed in February 2024 intersected REE mineralization associated with point source magnetic anomalies modelled by Southern Geoscience Consultants. In September 2024, twelve aircore holes were drilled in a pattern around the original holes at a distance of 100m. The drilling completed in February 2024 intersected mafic to ultramafic intrusive rocks with elevated REE values, commonly at the contact between the laterite profile and the bedrock. Best results included LVAC023 3m @ 6794ppm TREO from 28m1 incls. 1m @ 16,426ppm TREO and LVAC009 1m @ 7220ppm TREO from 43m1. The follow-up drilling conducted in September 2024 has extended the area of anomalous REE mineralization associated with mafic intrusions around the point source magnetic anomalies; however, some holes intersected unmineralized sediments, indicating that the intrusions have a limited extent near surface. The best intersection is 8m at 2350ppm TREO from 24m in LVAC026 (Figure 3). Several holes within the gold target area also intersected anomalous REE values: 8m at 6132ppm TREO from 48m in LVAC037 and 4m at 6632ppm TREO from 64 in LVAC044 The follow-up drilling has confirmed the REE mineralization identified in the initial aircore program and the correlation between the REE mineralization and the magnetic anomalies caused by mafic to ultramafic intrusions. ASX RELEASE. Page 6 of 22 Figure 3: September 2024 aircore results – REE Next Steps The Company is highly encouraged by the assay results from the follow-up aircore drilling program completed in September. The gold intersection of 44m at 1.01g/t Au from 44m in LVAC049 significantly upgrades the prospectivity of the gold target area. The September drill program in-filled the drill spacing from 100m to 50m to better define the location of the mineralized trend. The broader intersection and higher gold grades suggest that hole LVAC049 is close to the bedrock source of the gold mineralization and will assist with future targeting of drilling. The Company considers the supergene mineralization intersected in the laterite is indicative of deeper sulphidic gold mineralization in the bedrock that has not been adequately tested previously. Previous drilling has failed to adequately explain the supergene gold mineralization. ASX RELEASE. Page 7 of 22 Catalina will immediately start planning and seeking approvals for a program of RC drilling to test the source of the gold mineralization below the weathered laterite profile. The structural and lithological control of the mineralization is not known but it is considered to be caused by a fault splay of the Barnicoat Shear Zone that hosts the Lily Pond, Mon Ami and Ida H gold resources to the north. Fine ferruginous veining, quartz veining and alteration logged in partially weathered sediments in some of the recent aircore holes is encouraging because it is indicative of hydrothermal gold mineralization and provides strong support for the deeper drill testing. Background The aircore drilling in February and September 2024 targeted areas along strike from the Lily Pond Well Mineral Resource (340kt @ 1.4 g/t Au2) that is hosted by the north-south trending Barnicoat Shear Zone. The shear zone traverses the southwest corner of E38/3697 and is interpreted to link the Lily Pond Well resource with the Mon Ami (1.56Mt @ 1.1g/t Au3) and Ida H (630kt @ 1.4 g/t Au4) Mineral Resources to the north (Figure 1). In addition, drilling tested REE targets associated with magnetic anomalies (Figure 3). Figure 4: E38/3697 location plan ASX RELEASE.

These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. • Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. • 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 (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m 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 mineralization types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. Commentary • Catalina Resources completed 27 Aircore drill holes for 1,801m at its Laverton Project, near Laverton WA. • Drilling is located within Catalina’s E38/3697 and was completed in September 2024. • Sampling of the Aircore holes was conducted by taking 4m composites downhole. A 1m split was also taken using a splitter for follow up analysis if required. • The majority of the 1m and 4m samples taken to a depth of 60m were dry and weighed between 1.0 and 3.0 kg. Below 60m groundwater was commonly intersected causing samples to be wet. • 1m sample piles from the cyclone were laid out in orderly rows on the ground. • Using a hand-held trowel, 4m composite samples were collected from the 1m piles. This compositing was aimed to reduce assaying costs. • 4m composite samples weighed between 1.0 and 1.5kg. • 1m split samples mostly weigh between 2-3kg. • Any 4m composite sample that returns an anomalous assay will be re-assayed using the corresponding 1m split samples that will be assayed by Fire Assay for gold and peroxide fusion for REEs. • Quality control of the assaying comprised the insertion of industry (OREAS) standards (certified reference material) every 50th sample. • Samples were sent to the Bureau Veritas Laboratory in Perth. • Samples will be pulverized so that 75% of the sample passes 75µm. • A representative sample of the pulp will then be digested using Aqua Regia (acid) and assayed by ICP-MS for low level gold, Ni, Co and Cr using method AR001 and REEs using method AR102.

Drill sample recovery • • • Logging • • • Sub-sampling • techniques and sample • preparation • • Commentary • The drilling contractor was Gyro Drilling from Kalgoorlie. Gyro uses 3m drill rods. • Holes were drilled to blade refusal unless excess water was intersected. • Hole diameter was 85mm / 3.5”. • Aircore drilling uses a three-bladed steel or tungsten drill bit to penetrate the weathered layer of loose soil and rock fragments. The drill rods are hollow and feature an inner tube with an outer barrel (like RC drilling). • Aircore drilling uses small compressors (750 cfm/250 psi) to drill holes into the weathered layer of loose soil and fragments of rock. Compressed air is injected into the space between the inner tube and the drill rods inside wall, which flushes the cuttings up and out of the drill hole through the rod’s inner tube, causing less chance of crosscontamination. • Gyro used an Air 750 CFM / 250 PSI Sullair Compressor. Method of recording and assessing • Representative aircore samples were core and chip sample recoveries and collected at 1m intervals, with drill chips results assessed. from end of hole placed into chip trays and kept for reference at
