#1AUSTRALIAN GRAPHITE From Mine to Markets RIU Explorers Conference, Fremantle WA February 2024 KG INTERNATIONAL GRAPHITE (ASX:IG6)#276 INTERNATIONAL GRAPHITE COMPETENT PERSONS STATEMENT/JORC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT This announcement contains references to Mineral Resources Estimates and Exploration Results which have been extracted from previous ASX announcements as referenced. Particular attention is drawn to the ASX release dated 12 September 2023 titled 'Huge Mineral Resource increase at Springdale'. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the said announcements, and in the case of estimates of Mineral Resources, that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the relevant market announcements continue to apply and have not materially changed. GENERAL DISCLOSURE AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS International Graphite Limited releases the key findings of its scoping study that has been undertaken for the purpose of developing a preliminary technical and economic assessment of the potential viability of the development of a graphite mining and concentrate production operation at the Springdale Graphite Project (Springdale) located on the south coast of Western Australia (Springdale Scoping Study). Springdale would supply graphite concentrates to a downstream processing facility located in Collie, 200km south of Perth in Western Australia that would produce battery anode materials for the lithium-ion battery industry (Collie BAM Facility). In April 2023 International Graphite released a scoping study that considered the preliminary technical and economic assessment of the potential viability of the construction and operation of the Collie BAM Facility that treated third party concentrates (Collie BAM Facility Scoping Study). The completion of the Springdale Scoping Study allows production from Springdale to replace the third party concentrates used in the Collie BAM Facility Scoping Study with concentrates sourced from Springdale. The Collie BAM Facilities has been designed around processing a 95% graphite concentrate. The ore source does not materially change the flowsheet assumptions at this level of graphite concentrate. There are no adverse impurities in the Springdale concentrate relative to imported concentrate that would require tailoring of the facilities accordingly. As the scope of the facilities (i.e. processing capacity) have not changed and the quantities of finished products being sold have not changed, there are accordingly no changes to labour, power consumption, maintenance, consumables, and general overheads and haulage. The Company has also reviewed general construction market conditions and conditions on hand in the Collie region since Q1 2023 and determined there are no indicators suggesting project implementation costs have materially changed in this period. With the exception of foreign currency exchange rate, pricing from the Collie BAM Facility Scoping Study remains valid at the date of this report and there have been no changes to plant design or flowsheet assumptions. This ASX release should be read in conjunction with the ASX release dated 26 April 2023 for further particulars regarding the processing flowsheet for the Collie BAM Facility. The substitution of graphite concentrate supply source lowers the forecast operating costs for the Collie BAM Facility. Capital cost inputs to the Collie BAM Facility Scoping Study remain unchanged. The combination of the Springdale Scoping Study and the Collie BAM Facility Scoping Study is referred to herein as the Springdale-Collie Integrated Mine to Market Scoping Study. The outcomes, production target and forecast financial information referred to in this release are based on low level technical and economic assessments that are insufficient to support estimation of Ore Reserves. The Springdale-Collie Integrated Mine to Market Scoping Study is presented in Australian dollars to an accuracy level of +/- 35% with a 90% level of confidence. While each of the JORC modifying factors was considered and applied, there is no certainty of eventual conversion to Ore Reserves or that the production target itself will be realised. Further exploration and evaluation work and appropriate studies are required before International Graphite will be in a position to estimate any Ore Reserves or to provide any assurance of an economic development case. p2#376 INTERNATIONAL 《༦ GRAPHITE The production targets stated in this presentation are based on International Graphite's current expectations of future results or events and should not be relied upon by investors when making investment decisions. Further evaluation work and studies are required to establish sufficient confidence that production targets will be met. Accordingly, given the uncertainties involved, investors should not make any investment decisions based solely on the results of the Integrated Mine to Market Scoping Study. Given that the results are subject to the qualifications above (including assumptions as to accuracy and confidence tolerances) any results reported in this release should be considered as approximates and subject to variances having regard for the assumptions referred to in this release. In the first ten years of the Springdale Scoping Study production plan approximately 86% of the Mineral Resources schedule for extraction are currently classified as Indicated and 14% as Inferred. A valuation table is provided showing the financial viability of the project over this operating period. Of the Mineral Resources scheduled for extraction over 15 years in the Springdale Scoping Study production plan approximately 72% are currently classified as Indicated, including 81% in the first 13 years of the period modelled. International Graphite confirms that the financial viability of Springdale and Collie BAM Facility is not dependent on the inclusion of Inferred Resources in the production schedule. The Company has concluded that it has reasonable grounds for disclosing production targets which include a proportion of Inferred material. However, there is a low level of geological confidence associated with Inferred Mineral Resources and there is no certainty that further exploration work will result in the determination of Indicated Mineral Resources or that production targets themselves will be realised. The Mineral Resources underpinning the production targets in the Springdale Scoping Study have been prepared by a Competent Person in accordance with the requirements of the JORC Code (2012). For full details of the Mineral Resources estimate, please refer to International Graphite's ASX release dated 12th September 2023, released to ASX under the title "Huge Mineral Resource increase at Springdale". The Mineral Resource estimate was prepared by independent consultancies OMNI Geox Pty Ltd and Trepanier Pty Ltd and Mr. Peter Langworthy of OMNI Geox Pty Ltd and Mr Lauritz Barnes of Trepanier are named as Competent Persons. International Graphite confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in that release and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimate continue to apply and have not been changed. To achieve the potential mine development outcomes indicated in the Springdale - Collie Integrated Mine to Market Scoping Study, funding in the order of A$76 million will likely be required to develop Springdale and between A$124 million and $341 million (depending upon the finished product to be produced) will be required to develop the Collie BAM Facility. Investors should note that there is no certainty that the Company will be able to raise funding when needed, however the Company has concluded it has a reasonable basis for providing the forward-looking statements included in this presentation and believes that it has a "reasonable basis" to expect it will be able to fund the development of Springdale and the Collie BAM Facility. It is also possible that such funding may only be available on terms which are dilutive to, or otherwise affect the value of, International Graphite's existing shares. It is also possible that International Graphite could pursue other 'value realization' strategies such as sale, partial sale or joint venture of the project. If it does, this could materially reduce International Graphite's proportionate ownership of the assets. International Graphite has concluded that it has a reasonable basis for providing these forward-looking statements and the forecast financial information included in this release. This includes a reasonable basis to expect that it will be able to fund the development of Springdale and the Collie BAM Facility upon successful delivery of key development milestones as and when required. The detailed reasons for these conclusions are outlined throughout the ASX release dated 29 January 2024. While International Graphite considers all of the material assumptions to be based on reasonable grounds, there is no certainty that they will prove to be correct or that the range of outcomes indicated by the Integrated Mine to Market Scoping Study will be achieved. A summary of the Integrated Mine to Market Scoping Study highlights is shown in the body of the ASX release dated 29 January 2024. All financials are provided in Australian dollars unless stated otherwise. p3#476 INTERNATIONAL GRAPHITE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS Some of the statements contained in this document are forward looking statements.
