EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

1. RESOLUTIONS 1 & 2 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF SHARES – INSTITUTIONAL PLACEMENT - LISTING RULES 7.1 AND 7.1A

1.1 Background

As set out in the Company’s announcement of 21 April 2021, the Company received binding commitments for a placement to raise $22,000,000 through the issue of approximately 524,000,000 Shares at $0.042 per share ( Institutional Placement ).

The Placement was met with strong demand from international domestic institutions together with sophisticated and professional investors. Newcrest Operations Limited (ACN 009 221 505) ( Newcrest ), the Company’s largest shareholder, also committed to subscribe for approximately $2,400,000 of Shares to maintain its shareholding at 9.9% and IGO Limited (ABN 46 092 786 304) committed to subscribe for approximately $1,200,000 of Shares to maintain its shareholding at 4.9%.

1.2 General

On 29 April 2021, the Company issued 523,809,549 Shares at an issue price of $0.042 per Share to raise $22,000,000 ( Institutional Placement Shares ).

273,705,489 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (being, the subject of Resolution 1) and 250,104,060 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s 7.1A mandate, which was approved by Shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 20 November 2020.

The Company engaged the services of Euroz Hartleys Limited (ACN 104 195 057) ( Euroz Hartleys ), (AFSL 230052) and Canaccord Genuity (Australia) Limited (ABN 19 075 071 466) ( Canaccord ) to act as Joint Lead Managers and joint book runners in respect of the Institutional Placement. The Company paid the Joint Lead Managers a 2% management fee and 4% selling fee on the gross proceeds raised under the Institutional Placement (split 50:50). A summary of the material terms of the Joint Lead Manager Mandate is set out in Schedule 1.

1.3

Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A

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 12 month period.

The Company obtained approval to increase its limit to 25% at the annual general meeting held on 20 November 2020.

The issue of the Institutional Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without

5

3258-03/2709050_6

Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Institutional Placement Shares .

1.4

Listing Rule 7.4

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 Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Institutional Placement Shares.

Resolutions 1 and 2 seek Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Institutional Placement Shares.

1.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolutions 1 and 2 are passed, the Institutional Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Institutional Placement Shares.

If Resolutions 1 and 2 are not passed, the Institutional Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Institutional Placement Shares.

1.6 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolutions 1 and 2:

The issue of the Newcrest Placement 1 Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Newcrest Placement 1 Shares.

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 Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Newcrest Placement 1 Shares.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Newcrest Placement 1 Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Newcrest Placement Shares.

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.
