Snapshot	The Citronen Zn-Pb Project is one of the world’s largest undeveloped zinc deposits. Ironbark Zinc Limited (the Company) holds a granted 30-year Mining Permit over the deposit. Updated Bankable Feasibility Study for the Citronen Project was completed in 2021. Existing ore reserves enable an intial 20-year mine life with substantial further exploration upside potential. During 2024, following negotiations with the Greenland Government the Company was successful in securing extensions to key dates pertaining to the financing & commencement of production at Citronen. These extensions, until the end of 2024 and 2026 respectively, are the maximum allowable extensions able to be afforded to Ironbark under its current licence terms.

Deposit type

• SEDEX

Summary:

The Citronen Deposit is interpreted as belonging to the SEDEX deposit class, forming syn-depositionally with sedimentation.

The Citronen Fjord deposit lies within the Palaeozoic Franklinian Basin, a sedimentary basin which extends across Northern Greenland and into Canada. The deposit lies within Ordovician deep water argillaceous rocks, interbedded with carbonate debris flows sourced from the carbonate platform to the south. Base metal mineralisation at Citronen is primarily contained within the Amundsen Land Group mudstones. Three main stratigraphic horizons of mineralisation were identified by Platinova A/S. Known sulphide and zinc mineralisation occurs over an area of 12km in strike (identified to date). The main sulphides present are pyrite, sphalerite and galena. Three types of sulphide mineralisation are present: mound-like masses, interbedded sulphides that form laminae and beds within the mudstones and cross-cutting epigenetic mineralisation that is primarily found in the carbonate debris flows.

Dimensions
The area containing the Citronen Resource stretches 6.5km from the north-west corner of the Esrum Zone to the south-east corner of the Discovery Zone. The deposit is exposed at surface in the Discovery Zone and reaches a depth of 575m below surface in the Esrum Zone. The deposit is open along strike and at depth.
