COMPANY OVERVIEW
COMET PROJECT
The Comet Project is a brownfields gold asset located approximately 25km southeast of Cue in
Western Australia. The Project is situated on existing Mining Leases and comprises both open pit and
underground mining opportunities.
Comet has a history of production, having
produced approximately 1.4Mt at 3.17g/t Au
for 144,000 ounces between 2017 and 2022
under previous ownership.
As at December 2025, the Project hosts a
Mineral Resource of 4.1Mt at 2.43g/t Au for
319,000 ounces.1
The Resource spans
multiple deposits along an approximately 4km
mineralised trend, with limited deep drilling
completed to date.
The Project benefits from proximity to
established infrastructure, including Westgold
Resources Limited’s (Westgold) Cue and
Meekatharra processing hubs, and an
executed ore purchase agreement supports a
potential low-capital pathway toward production. Valiant is progressing studies to support a potential
restart, including dewatering, resource definition drilling and mining studies.

890,000 ounces.1
The Resource spans
several deposits, including South Emu,
Triton, Rand, Jack Ryan and Boomerang-
Kurara, across an approximately 10km
mineralised trend.
Limited deep drilling has been completed to
date, with potential to extend mineralisation
along strike and at depth. Planned work
programs include resource definition drilling
and mining studies, with near-term
opportunities identified at South Emu–Triton
and Boomerang, including open pit cutback
potential.
The Project is located approximately 30km from Westgold’s Meekatharra processing hub and 32km
