Locksley Resources Ltd (LKYRF) LKY Frankfurt Listing and Strategic US Expansion

Locksley Resources Ltd (ASX:LKY) (OTCMKTS:LKYRF) (FRA:X5L) is pleased to announce the successful listing of its securities on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under code X5L, significantly elevating its visibility across Europe. This milestone aligns with the Company's ongoing momentum in advancing its Mojave Antimony & Rare Earths Project within the U.S. Mojave Critical Minerals Corridor, a zone of increasing global economic and strategic importance.
Why Frankfurt Matters
Locksley's recent listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange provides a significant opportunity for European investors, particularly those in the German-speaking DACH region (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland) with a population of close to 100 million people, to gain exposure to Locksley, a company that is participating in the U.S. critical minerals space, one of the most topical investment thematics globally. The Frankfurt listing is expected to enhance liquidity, improve price discovery, enrich market transparency, and expand access to a deep pool of European capital focused on strategic resources, U.S. critical minerals supply chain security and U.S. onshoring of minerals associated with defense and technology.
Strategic Position: Mojave Corridor
Situated approximately 1.4 km from the Mountain Pass Mine, the only active rare earth mine in the U.S., the Mojave Project offers compelling upside. High-grade surface assays at the Desert Antimony Mine include 146% antimony and 1,022 g/t silver, with multiple samples exceeding 17% antimony, over a 400 m strike length. At the El Campo Prospect, rare earth potential is underscored by assays up to 2 12.1% TREO and 3.19% NdPr, mapped over an 860 m horizon.
These results, harmonised with U.S. policy, especially the March 2025 Executive Order accelerating permitting and support under the National Energy Dominance Council and Defense Production Act, further enhance the Mojave Project's value as a domestic critical minerals opportunity.
Next Steps: Exploring U.S. Capital Markets Pathways
Building on European traction, Locksley is evaluating further strategic options to enter the U.S. capital markets, including:
- ADR Program is a USD-denominated trading instrument that enables US investors to buy shares in non-US companies without the complexity of cross-border transactions. ADRs offer a number of advantages that may attract greater interest from U.S. institutional investors and increased visibility;
- SPAC merger opportunities for deliberate, capital accelerated entry;
- Direct listing or IPO on a U.S. main board, targeting Nasdaq or NYSE, to leverage the largest, most liquid, innovation focused markets, which would also involve becoming a SEC registered company, thus enhancing the Company's visibility with U.S. investors.
These evaluations reflect our ambition to broaden investor reach and unlock significant commercial and financial value.
NATO CAGE Registration
Locksley has successfully received its NATO Commercial and Government Entity (NCAGE) Code.
The NCAGE registration is a prerequisite for participating in U.S. and allied government contracting and funding programs. This designation enables Locksley to engage directly with U.S. federal agencies, including the Department of Defense (DoD) and Department of Energy (DOE), for critical minerals funding initiatives.
Obtaining an NCAGE code marks an important milestone in positioning Locksley within the U.S. critical minerals supply chain and strengthens the Company's eligibility for government backed programs aimed at securing domestic supply of strategic resources.
