EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions which are the subject of the business of the Meeting.

BACKGROUND

On 22 October 2025, the Company announced that it had receive binding commitments from investors for a placement of fully paid ordinary shares ( Placement Shares ) at an issue price of $0.004 (0.4 cents) per Placement Share to raise up to approximately $1,000,000 before costs. Every two Placement Shares are to be accompanied by one option ( Placement Option ) with an exercise price of $0.008, expiry date of 30 June 2028 and which, upon exercise, entitles the holder to one fully paid ordinary share in the Company. The issue of all Placement Options is subject to shareholder approval.

The issue of Placement Shares and Placement Options is referred to as the Placement .

The issue of the Placement Shares and Placement Options is to occur as follows:

  • 122,276,433 Placement Shares at $0.004 (0.4 cents) per Placement Share ($489,106) to be issued to unrelated professional, sophisticated and other exempt investors identified by the Company as part of its investor relations program or were clients of GBA Capital (who acted as lead manager of the Placement). The issue of these Placement Shares occurred on 4 November 2025. Shareholder ratification of the prior issue of these Placement Shares is sought under Resolution 1.

  • Every two Placement Shares issued for which shareholder ratification is sought under Resolution 1 are to be accompanied by one Placement Option. Resolution 2 seeks shareholder approval for the issue of Placement Options as free-attaching to the Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 1.

  • 127,723,567 Placement Shares at $0.004 (0.4 cents) per Placement Share ($510,894) together with 63,861,784 free-attaching Placement Options are proposed to be issued to Gage Resource Development Pty Ltd ( Gage ) (and/or its nominee(s)). Approval for the issue of these Placement Shares and Placement Options to Gage is sought under Resolution 3.

GBA Capital acted as lead manager of the Placement. As part fees for GBA Capital acting as lead manager of the Placement, the Company agreed to issue GBA Capital (and/or its nominee(s)) options ( Lead Manager Options ) with the same terms as Placement Options equal to 10% of the number of Placement Shares issued (up to 25,000,000 Placement Options). The issue of the Lead Manager Options is subject to Shareholder approval which is sought under Resolution 4.

RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF SHARES

Resolution 1 seeks shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 and all other purposes for the prior issue of 122,276,433 Placement Shares to unrelated sophisticated, professional and other exempt investors who were either identified by the Company as part of its investor relations program or were clients of GBA Capital (who acted as lead manager of the Placement). These Placement Shares were issued on 4 November 2025 and an Appendix 2A was released to ASX on that date.

11

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

The Company obtained shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A at its 2024 annual general meeting on 15 November 2024 and it accordingly able to issue up to 10% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of any 12 month period in addition to the 15% available under Listing Rule 7.1 (combined 25% capacity).

The issue of the Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 1 does not fit within any of the exceptions under Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by the shareholders of the Company, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the capacity of the Company to issue further securities without shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of the issue of the Placement Shares. All of the Placement Shares were issued using placement capacity available under Listing Rule 7.1A.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A and so does not reduce the capacity of the Company to issue further securities without shareholder approval under that rule

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities into the future without having to obtain shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1A.

To this end, Resolution 1 seeks shareholder approval of the issue of the Placement Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

If Resolution 1 is passed, the issue will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 10% limit in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the issue will be included in calculating the Company’s 10% limit under Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:

The number of
Shares issued:
122,276,433 Placement Shares.
Issue date: The Placement Shares were issued on 4 November 2025 and an
Appendix 2A was released to ASX on that date.
Issue price: $0.004 per Placement Share.
Terms of securities: The Placement Shares issued were fully paid ordinary shares in the
capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions
as the Company's existing ordinary shares.

12

Person to whom
Shares were
issued:
The Placement Shares were issued to unrelated sophisticated,
professional and other exempt investors who were either
identified by the Company as part of its investor relations program
or were clients of GBA Capital (who acted as lead manager of
the Placement). None of the unrelated investors are material
investors as described in clause 7.5 of ASX Guidance Note 21.
Purpose and use
of funds:
The purpose of the issue was to raise $489,106 before costs. The
funds raised have been, or are proposed to be, used for the Horn
Island resource update, further exploration at the Viani Gold
Project in Fiji and for general working capital.
Voting exclusion: A voting exclusion for Resolution 1 is contained in the Notice.

Recommendation

The Directors recommend Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution 1.

RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL FOR ISSUE OF PLACEMENT OPTIONS

Resolution 2 seeks shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 and for all other purposes for the Company to issue up to 61,138,250 Placement Options to the unrelated investors who subscribed for the Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 1 being unrelated sophisticated, professional and other exempt investors who were either identified by the Company as part of its investor relations program or were clients of GBA Capital (who acted as lead manager of the Placement).

The Placement Options are to be issued as free-attaching to Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 1 on the basis of one Placement Option for every one Placement Share issued. Further details of the Placement Shares, including details of the recipients of the Placement Shares, are set out in Resolution 1.

The full terms of the Placement Options are set out in Annexure 1. The issue of the Placement Options is subject to shareholder approval.

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of the period.

The issue of the Placement Options would exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 but for Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 17. It therefore requires the approval of the shareholders of the Company under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 2 seeks the required shareholder approval to issue the Placement Options under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If shareholders approve Resolution 2, the Company will be able to issue up to 61,138,250 Placement Options for which approval is sought under Resolution 2 to the unrelated investors who subscribed for Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 1. In addition, the Issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. If shareholders do not approve Resolution 2 then the Company will not be able to issue the Placement Options and the Placement Options will not be able to be issued to the unrelated investors who subscribed for Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 1.

13

If shareholders approve Resolution 3, the Company will be able to issue the 127,723,567 Placement Shares and 63,861,784 Placement Options to Gage and the Company will not raise $510,894 from the issue of those securities. If shareholders do not approve Resolution 3, the Company will not be able to issue the Placement Shares and Placement Options the subject of Resolution 3 to Gage (and/or its nominee(s)) and those securities will not be issued to Gage (and/or its nominee(s)).

Resource
Development
Pty
Ltd
(and/or

Categories the person
falls within:
Gage is associated with the Chairman of the Company,
Jianying Wang, and is accordingly a related party to whom
Listing Rule 10.11.4 applies. In addition, Gage holds more
than 30% of the issued capital of the Company and is
accordingly a party to whom Listing Rule 10.11.2 applies.
Proposed date of Issue: The Placement Shares and Placement Options the subject
of Resolution 3 are proposed to be issued shortly after the
Meeting and in any event no later than one month after the
date of the Meeting.

Corporations Act

Section 208 of the Corporations Act provides that a public company must not, subject to certain exceptions, give a financial benefit to a related party without approval of the members (shareholders) of the company. Section 228 defines a related party for the purposes of Chapter 2E (including section 208) of the Corporations Act to include an entity that controls the Company. As a substantial (30%+) holder of the Company, Gage could be considered to control the Company and accordingly is being treated by the Company as a related party for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

Section 210 of the Corporations Act provides an exception to the requirement to obtain shareholder approval for giving a financial benefit to a related party where the financial benefit is on terms that would be reasonable if the company and the related party were dealing on arm’s length terms.

The Directors (with Jianying Wang abstaining) consider the proposed issue of the Placement Shares and Placement Options under Resolution 3 are on arm’s length terms. This view was formed on the basis that the securities the subject of Resolution 3, when subscribed for by Gage, are proposed to be issued on the same terms as offered to unrelated sophisticated and professional investors under Resolutions 1 and 2.

Recommendation

The Directors (with Jianying Wang abstaining from making a recommendation) recommend Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution 3.

RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL FOR ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO GBA CAPITAL PTY LTD

Resolution 4 seeks shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 and for all other purposes to issue up to 25,000,000 Lead Manager Options to GBA Capital (and/or its nominee(s)) in connection with the role of GBA Capital as lead manager of the Placement. The number of Lead Manager Options to be issued is equal to 10% of the number of Placement Shares issued.

The issue of the Lead Manager Options is subject to shareholder approval. The full terms of the Lead Manager Options are set out in Annexure1.

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exception, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders

16

over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of the period.

The issue of the Lead Manager Options would exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 but for Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 17. It therefore requires the approval of the shareholders of the Company under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 4 seeks the required shareholder approval to issue the Lead Manager Options under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If shareholders approve Resolution 4, the Company will be able to issue up to 25,000,000 Lead Manager Options to GBA Capital (and/or its nominee(s)). In addition, the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. If shareholders do not approve Resolutions 4, the Company will not be able to issue the Lead Manager Options to GBA Capital (and/or its nominee(s)) and may need to seek to negotiate an alternate form of fee to be paid to GBA Capital.

The following information is provided in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.3 in respect of Resolution 4:

Maximum number of
Securities to be issued:
25,000,000 Lead Manager Options. The number of Lead
Manager Options issued will be equal to 10% of the number
of Placement Shares issued.
Recipients: GBA Capital Pty Ltd (and/or its nominee(s)). GBA Capital is
not a related party of the Company.
Proposed date of Issue: Lead Manager Options are proposed to be issued shortly
after the Meeting and in any event will be issued no later
than three months after the date of the Meeting (or such
later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or
modification of the Listing Rules).
Price at which the
Options are to be
issued:
Nil issue price. Lead Manager Options are to be issued to
GBA Capital (and/or its nominee(s)) in connection with their
role as lead manager of the Placement.
Terms of securities: Lead Manager Options each have an exercise price of
$0.008, expire 30 June 2028 and, upon exercise, entitle the
holder to one fully paid ordinary share in the capital of the
Company. The full terms of the Lead Manager Options are
set out in in Annexure 1.
Purpose and use of
funds:
No funds will be raised by the issue of the Lead Manager
Options, which are being issued as part of the fee due to
GBA Capital for acting as lead manager of the Placement.
Funds raised on exercise of the Options (if any) will be
applied to meeting the working capital requirements of the
Company at the time of exercise.
Material terms of the
Agreement:
Lead Manager Options are being issued to GBA Capital
(and/or its nominee(s)) pursuant to the terms of an
engagement letter between the Company and GBA
Capital (Letter).

17

The material terms of the Letter are summarised below:

GBA Capital has agreed to act as lead manager of
the Placement the subject of Resolutions 1 to 3.

The Company agreed to pay GBA Capital fees for its
role as lead manager of the Placement comprising:
o

o
The issue of the Lead Manager Options, being a
number of Lead Manager Options equal to 10%
of the Placement Shares issued.

The Letter otherwise contains terms typical for
arrangements of this kind, including provisions with
respect to confidentiality and intellectual property, a
limitation of liability that may be imposed on GBA
Capital, and an indemnity given by the Company in
favour of GBA Capital and general provisions
regarding the payment of expenses incurred by GBA
Capital as lead manager.
Voting exclusion: A voting exclusion for Resolution 4 is contained in the
Notice.

5.2 Recommendation

The Directors recommend Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution 4.

RESOLUTION 5 – APPROVAL FOR ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO GBA CAPITAL PTY LTD

Resolution 5 seeks shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 and for all other purposes to issue 10,000,000 listed AQXO options (each with an exercise price of $0.008 (0.8 cents) and expiry date of 30 June 2028) ( Advisor Options ) to GBA Capital (and/or its nominee(s)) in connection with the appointment of GBA Capital as financial advisor of the Company as announced by the Company to ASX on 5 November 2025.

The issue of the Advisor Options is subject to shareholder approval. The full terms of the Advisor Options are set out in Annexure1.

The issue of the Advisor Options would exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 but for Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 17. It therefore requires the approval of the shareholders of the Company under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 4 seeks the required shareholder approval to issue the Advisor Options under

and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If shareholders approve Resolution 5, the Company will be able to issue the 10,000,000 Advisor Options to GBA Capital (and/or its nominee(s)). In addition, the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can

18

issue without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. If shareholders do not approve Resolutions 5, the Company will not be able to issue the Advisor Options to GBA Capital (and/or its nominee(s)) and may need to seek to negotiate an alternate form of fee to be paid to GBA Capital.

The following information is provided in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.3 in respect of Resolution 4:

Chapter 2E – Corporations Act

Under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, a public company cannot give a “financial benefit” to a “related party” unless one of the exceptions to the section apply or shareholders have in a general meeting approved the giving of that financial benefit to the related party.

Each of the proposed recipients of unlisted options under Resolutions 6 to 9 is a director and therefore a related party of the Company as defined under the Corporations Act.

Section 211 of the Corporations Act provides that one of the exceptions to the requirement to obtain shareholder approval for giving a financial benefit to a related party is where the benefit is given to the related party as an officer of the Company and to give the remuneration would be reasonable given:

  • The circumstances of the company; and

  • The related party’s circumstances (including the responsibilities involved in the office or employment).

The Company considers the proposed issue is reasonable remuneration and, as such, fall within the exception set out in section 211 of the Corporations Act.

In reaching this view, the Company has considered the respective positions and responsibilities of each of the proposed recipients, the Company’s reliance on a limited number of personnel, the need for the Company to effectively incentivise each of the Directors while aligning the incentive with increasing shareholder value, the desirability of preserving cash resources within the Company, and the terms of the options. The Company considers that the issue of the options is an effective tool which preserves the cash reserves of the Company whilst providing valuable consideration.

22

Corporations Act – Section 195(4)

Notwithstanding the above, and although no Director participated in the decision making process in respect of securities proposed to be issued to them, the Directors acknowledge that Resolutions 6 to 9 separately relate to each of them. Accordingly, the Directors propose Resolutions 6 to 9 each are also be put to shareholders for the purposes of section 195(4) of the Corporations Act such that shareholders determine whether the named related parties will be issued the options the subject of Resolutions 6 to 9.

Corporations Act – proxy voting prohibition

A proxy voting prohibition in accordance with Section 250BD of the Corporations Act applies to Resolutions 6 to 9.
