    LCL Resources (ASX: LCL) (LCL or the Company) is pleased to provide an overview of
    activities in the March 2024 quarter.
    The Company continues to see material success at its PNG Nickel Project (LCL 100%),
    building upon critical emerging understandings and field work in the second half of 2023.
    The 2024 field program has discovered additional outcrop of structural hosted
    hydrothermal nickel +/- gold in multiple locations and trench results at the Veri Veri target
    which has confirmed the exciting potential.
    As part of continued efforts to streamline operations and reduce costs, the Company’s
    Managing Director, Jason Stirbinskis, resigned as CEO and Director, with relevant
    functions absorbed within the current board and senior management team.
    A General Meeting of shareholders was held in January as an administrative requirement
    to list share options and approve shares issues linked to the Company’s December capital
    raise. The Company ended the quarter with $2.6 million cash.

    High grade nickel sulphide confirmed in outcrops at Iyewe
    The Company received assay results from its December 2023 Iyewe Prospect
    reconnaissance field program. Of the 16 samples collected from nickel sulphide bearing
    outcrops and float, 10 assayed >5% Ni and five of these samples assayed >10% Ni.1
    Importantly, nine of the samples were distal from the historical Iyewe drill area and two of
    these samples were highly anomalous in gold, assaying 4.80g/t and 2.48g/t, confirming
    the previously reported association of high grade nickel with high grade gold. Some of
    the newly discovered outcrops do not appear to be strike extensions of known outcrops
    thus suggesting additional mineralised structures within the Iyewe region (Figure 1).
    Geophysics modelling highlights more targets
    The Company’s 2.5D inversion modelling of historical VTEM surveys1 have confirmed VTEM
    responses from known nickel sulphide exposures at Veri Veri and Iyewe and identified
    several additional anomalies for follow-up work. New targets include a high priority
    conductor at Anuia, between Veri Veri and Iyewe, coincident with nickel sulphide float
    (Figures 2 & 4)1
    High grade nickel sulphides assayed in Veri Veri trench
    Trenching across the Veri Veri mineralised corridor identified multiple zones of high grade
    nickel and gold, associated with ultramafic host rocks of the Papuan Ultramafic Belt (Figures
    2 and 3). The best intercepts returned2:
    • 20m @ 1.58% Ni, 0.9 g/t Au (from 8-28m)
    • 14m @ 3.24% Ni, 0.71 g/t Au (from 90-104m)
    • 19m @ 2.46% Ni, 0.65 g/t Au (from 131-150m)
    • 14m @ 2.82% Ni, 0.83 g/t Au (from 159-173m)
    The nickel mineralisation is associated with serpentinised ultramafics, which contain
    structural lenses (boudins) and minor veins of nickel sulphide, dominated by the high grade
    nickel sulphide mineral heazlewoodite. The nickel sulphide zones (reporting grades up to
    10.86% Ni) have a geochemical correlation with gold (up to 2.19 g/t Au)
