• As at 30 September 2023, Southern Palladium held approximately $9.98
million (30 June 2023: $11.55 million) in cash.
Southern Palladium (ASX: SPD, JSE: SPL, "Southern Palladium" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its quarterly
activities summary for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
The Company's primary focus is advancing its exploration program to PFS and then to development of the Bengwenyama
PGM (platinum group metals) project, in which it holds a direct 70% stake.
Following its successful ASX listing on 8th June 2022, Southern Palladium remains well-funded to continue its multi-phase
exploration program at Bengwenyama. During the September quarter, the Company completed its Phase 1a drill program
and has now increased its resource from a 3PGE+Au Inferred Resource of 18.80Moz to a 6PGE+Au Indicated and Inferred
Resource of 25.12Moz.
Southern Palladium is led by an experienced on-ground management team and is currently executing several core operational
objectives, with the planned completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study early in Q2 2024.
The Bengwenyama project presents a significant shallow advance exploration/pre-development opportunity for Platinum
Group Metals. It is located on the Eastern Limb of the Bushveld Complex in South Africa.
Overview of September Quarter Activities
PFS drill programme
As of 30 September, the drilling programme has completed 19,447m of drilling (including deflections) with assay results for
39 UG2 intersections and 10 MR intersections received from the laboratory. An additional 19 UG2 drillhole intersections
(including five deflections) and two MR drillhole intersections have been submitted to the laboratory and awaiting results
(Figure 1).
Figure 1: Location of Completed and Planned Drillholes
UG2 Reef Width and Grade trends
Data trends are starting to develop with the additional reef intersections. The images in Figure 2 and Figure 3 are simple
contour plots utilising Golden Software, Surfer 11 to contour the reefwidth and grade of the UG2 to visualise the trends in
the Payback Area and the PFS focus area. Figure 2 (left image) clearly shows the increase in the UG2 reef width from the
southeast corner of Eerstegeluk to thenorthwest of Eerstegeluk. Notably, drillhole E032 has a reef width of 136cm and E001
has a reef width of 118cm, which wouldsuggest a wider mining cut. Due to the narrower nature of the reef width of the UG2
in the SE, the results to-date indicatethe mining cut may be around 1m. Note that the drillhole density in the SE is less than
in the NW, so there could be changes
to this trend with further drilling.
The UG2 grade (6PGE + Au g/t) is consistent across the drilling area, as can be seen in Figure 2 (right image). As per the drilling
results to date the average cm.g/t of the UG2 (3PGE + Au) averages around 550 cm.g/t and for the 6PGE + Au averages around
665 cm.g/t, which is evident in Figure 3. Indications from this figure is that the PGM content of the UG2 increases toward the
northwest of Eerstegeluk.
For comparison the average cm.g/t (3PGE+Au) for the Anglo-American Platinum/African Rainbow Modikwa 7km to resource
to the north is 607 cm.g/t*11, comparable to the Bengwenyama deposit. The Modikwa mine, located some the north of
Bengwenyama project is regarded as a Tier 1 PGM operation. The Modikwa mine produced 290Koz (6PGE+Au) in 2022.

Cautionary statement: The reference to the Amplats / ARM 'Modikwa' project in this announcement refers to data that is based
on a Measured and Indicated resource. As such, the Modikwa is in a different stage of development to Southern Palladium's
Bengwenyama project, and further exploration and development of the Bengwenyama project will be required to fully realise a
comparison with respect to the measurement criteria used in this announcement (cm.g/t - centimetre-grams per tonne). There is
no certainty that the advancement of infill drilling and ongoing development works at Bengwenyama will result in the same grade
of cm.g/t. The Indicated and Inferred Resource at Bengwenyama has been prepared and reported in accordance with the 2012
Edition of the JORC Code. Note: Anglo American Platinum report the average for the Modikwa UG2 Measured and Indicated
resource as a grade of 5.89g/t (3PGE +Au) over a resource cut width of 103cm (Reserves and Resources Report 2022).
Ongoing Drilling Programme
Seven drill rigs are now on site (Figure 1) and the focus has been moved from the payback area only to a spread over the
wider eastern section and the defined Exploration Target within the Horst Block.
With the additional drillhole intersections and more data on the UG2 being collected there is now sufficient information to
start compiling a meaningful facies plan for the deposit.
Of the initial 24,500m of planned drilling (63 drillholes with deflections), 19,447m have been completed, which is comprised
of 59 completed drillholes and 21 deflections. Additional drillholes have been planned (Figure 1) with the remaining budget
to fill in gaps to assist with structural modelling.
Submission of Mining Right Application
On September 29, 2023, Southern Palladium officially submitted its application for a Mining Right. On 17 October 2023, the
company received notification from the Department of Mineral Resource and Energy (DMRE) that its application for the
Mining Right has been accepted. This approval confirms that Southern Palladium can now initiate comprehensive expert
studies and consultations which will pave the way for a decision by the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE)
by the end of 2024 (refer ASX Announcement 23 October 2023).
Project Studies
Over the past two months, numerous deflections were drilled to obtain metallurgical samples for metallurgical testing and
to support the geotechnical studies conducted as part of the scoping study. These tasks have been completed and our focus
has now returned to exploration and infill drilling to secure additional UG2 reef intersections for structural and estimation
modelling.
The second resource update is currently in progress and is expected to be completed by the end of November 2023. It's
important to note that the drilling conducted during this period was aimed at converting some of the Inferred resources in
the East into the Indicated category rather than expanding the resource, which already comprises a substantial 25 million
ounces (6E+Au).
Additionally, the geotechnical report is being reviewed, and the results of this study will be made available in the coming
weeks. Metallurgical testing is ongoing with results from that analysis also expected to be made available in Q4.
Environmental, Social and Governance
Southern Palladium works closely with the community, actively promoting inclusivity and project awareness. Ethical inclusion
extends to fair representation via Royal Family, Traditional Council and other Community representatives. Weekly exploration
meetings are held virtually with the two Community representatives, together with the environmental and exploration
management consulting firm contracted to the project. Quarterly meetings are held on site with extended representation
from the greater Royal Family, Traditional Council and community representatives.
To further communicate the Company's activities to community members, a Facebook page:
(https://www.facebook.com/SouthernPalladium) was launched. This platform will serve as a means to share updates,
news, and relevant information with the community in a more accessible and real-time manner.
Additionally, a newsletter was published and printed in July for distribution within the Community and surrounding Areas.
The Newspaper was well received and will be published on a Bi-annual basis. An electronic copy is available on the Southern
palladium website: https://www.southernpalladium.com/site/news-insights/media
Health And Safety
Southern Palladium is committed to upholding high standards of employee and workplace health and safety. Exploration
activities at Bengwenyama are conducted in compliance with all regulations including the South African Mine Health and
Safety Act (29 of 1996). A comprehensive safety file, emergency response plan, policies and codes of practice are
implemented, incorporating key guidelines published by the Chamber of Mines. Legal appointments are made in terms of
policies and Mine Health and Safety regulations.
Health and safety inductions are held for all new persons arriving on site at the Bengwenyama project. Daily safety meetings
are held, and a working incident reporting and management system is established. The use of PPE is enforced, and provision
is made for such equipment to all persons.
December Quarter Planned Activities
• Drilling and exploration activities at the Bengwenyama Project will continue throughout the December quarter. The focus of
the drilling has been narrowed down to infill drilling over the shallow eastern portion of the UG2 block. The aim is to extend
the indicated resource to the southeast, providing a larger indicated block. This will enable the company to publish both an
Updated Scoping Study (1Q 2024) and a Prefeasibility Study (PFS) (2Q 2024).
• Drilling rigs have also been allocated and moved to the "Horst Block area to get a better understanding of the area to the
west. The Southern Horst Block has limited geological structure information, primarily from historical collars. Therefore,
drilling in this region is crucial to improve the understanding of the geological structure. There are currently two rigs drilling
in this area.
• Ongoing metallurgical work is being conducted. The results from these works, combined with the Phase 1b resource-
definition results for the Payback Area, will be incorporated into the Pre-Feasibility Study, which is currently scheduled for
completion in Q2 2024.
Corporate
Interim Board Position
Southern Palladium is presently engaged in the process of finding a new non-executive Director and selecting a Chairman
following the departure of Mr. Terence Goodlace earlier this year.
Expenditure Summary
A summary of the exploration and project evaluation expenditures for the quarter is provided as follows:
For the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 5.3.1, payments for exploration, evaluation and development during the quarter totalled
$1,054,000 (30 Jun 2023: $974,037). The Phase 1a and Phase 1b drilling programme, and facilities set up and details of
activities undertaken during the quarter are as described in this report.
For the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 5.3.2, the Company confirms there were no mining production and development activities
undertaken during the quarter.
For the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 5.3.5, payments to directors of Southern Palladium Limited during the quarter totalled
$108,000. The payments were in respect of directors' salaries, fees and superannuation.
Payment to Minxcon Pty Ltd, a related party of two of the Company's Directors, Johan Odendaal and Daan van Heerden during
the quarter totalled approximately $162,000. The payments were in respect of expenses incurred for management of the
Bengwenyama Project.
Pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 5.3.4, the Company provides its actual expenditure on the individual items in the two year "use of
funds" statement in its IPO Prospectus since the date of its admission to ASX's Official List (being 8 June 2022) against the
estimated expenditure on those items and an explanation of any differences.
Use of Funds Prospectus: Estimated Actual use from 8 June 2022 Variance
Expenditure to quarter end
Phase 1 drilling $7,716,000 $4,513,205 $3,202,795
Phase 2 drilling $3,805,000 $0 $3,805,000

Note: All elements have been estimated individually and their combined grade will vary slightly from the estimated composite 4E and 7E modelled grades.
Platinum Group Minerals (PGMs) within the Bushveld Complex exhibit varying ratios (referred to as the Prill Split), with
platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), and rhodium (Rh) constituting the predominant components. Additionally, other PGMs such as
ruthenium (Ru), iridium (Ir), and osmium (Os) are also present, although in smaller quantities. These ratios exhibit variations
from one section of the complex to another. Notably, the UG2 reef at the Bengwenyama project represents an even
distribution of Platinum and Palladium, accompanied by a notable concentration of Rhodium. Conversely, the Merensky Reef
is characterized by a high platinum content.
