The cost of the solicitation will be borne directly by the Company.
No person is authorized to give any information or to make any representation other than those contained in this Notice and Explanatory Memorandum and, if given or made, such information or representation should not be relied upon as having been authorized by the Company. The delivery of this Notice and Explanatory Memorandum shall not, under any circumstances, create an implication that there has not been any change in the information set forth herein since the date hereof.
3.2 Proxy Form
The Proxy Form (and any power of attorney or other authority, if any, under which it is signed) must be received by 9:00am (AWST) on 8 April 2026, by mail to Computershare Investor Services Inc., Proxy Dept., 320 Bay Street, 14th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, M5H 4A6, online at www.investorvote.com and follow the instructions on the screen, or by phone at 1-866-732-VOTE (8683) Toll Free. A Proxy Form received after that time will not be valid.
3.3 Appointment of Proxy
Enclosed herewith is the form of proxy for use at the Meeting. You have the right to appoint a person (who need not be a Shareholder) to attend and act on your behalf at the Meeting other than the person designated in the form of proxy and may exercise such right by inserting the full name of the desired person in the blank space provided in the form of proxy.
9
==> picture [88 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
A proxy will not be valid unless it is signed by you or by your attorney duly authorized in writing or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, executed by a duly authorized officer in accordance with the instructions attached on the enclosed form of proxy.
3.4 Revocation of Proxies
You have the power to revoke a proxy in accordance with the provisions of the Corporations Act, which provides that every proxy may be revoked by an instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or by his or her attorney authorized in writing and delivered either to the registered office of the Company at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof at which the proxy is to be used, or to the Chair of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof, or in any other manner permitted by law.
3.5 Voting of Proxies
The form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the proxy with respect to any amendments or variations to the matters identified in the Notice of Meeting and any other matters that may properly come before the Meeting. At the time of printing this Notice of Meeting, management knows of no such amendment, variation or other matter.
You must mark the boxes directing your proxy on how to vote. If no voting instructions are indicated on the appointment of proxy form, the proxy will be voted as recommended by management or as the proxyholder sees fit (in the latter case, if management is not appointed as proxy).
3.6 Advice for Beneficial Holders
Shares may not be registered in the Shareholder's name but in the name of an intermediary (which is usually a bank, trust company, securities dealer or broker, or a clearing agency in which an intermediary participates). A non-registered shareholder cannot be recognized at the Meeting for the purpose of voting their Shares unless such holder is appointed by the applicable intermediary as a proxyholder.
In Canada, non-registered owners who have not objected to their intermediary disclosing certain ownership information about themselves to the Company are referred to as nonobjecting beneficial owners ( NOBOs ). Those non-registered owners who have objected to their intermediary disclosing ownership information about themselves to the Company are referred to as objecting beneficial owners ( OBOs ).
Pursuant to National Instrument 54-101 Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer of the Canadian Securities Administrators, the Company is sending proxy-related materials directly through Computershare Services Inc. these materials will include a scannable Voting Instruction Form (a “VIF”). These VIFs are to be completed and returned by mail to Computershare Investor Services Inc., Proxy Dept., 320 Bay Street, 14th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, M5H 4A6, online at www.investorvote.com and follow the instructions on the screen, or by phone at 1-866-732-VOTE (8683) Toll Free..
The Company has distributed copies of the Meeting materials to intermediaries for distribution to all OBOs who have not waived their rights to receive these materials. Often, intermediaries will use a service company to forward these meeting materials to OBOs. With those meeting materials the intermediaries will provide OBOs with a form of VIF. When properly completed, this VIF will constitute voting instructions which the intermediary must follow.
The purpose of these procedures is to allow non-registered Shareholders to direct the voting of the shares that they own but that are not registered in their name. Should a nonregistered Shareholder wish to attend and vote at the Meeting in person (or have another person attend and vote on his behalf), the non-registered Shareholder should carefully follow the instructions provided on the VIF.
Proxies returned by intermediaries as "non-votes" because the intermediary has not received instructions from the non-registered Shareholder with respect to the voting of certain shares or, under applicable stock exchange or other rules, the intermediary does not have the discretion to vote those shares on one or more of the matters that come before the Meeting, will be treated as not entitled to vote on any such matter and will not be counted as having been voted in respect of any such matter. Shares represented by such broker "non-votes" will, however, be counted in determining whether there is a quorum.
10
==> picture [88 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
3.7 Voting entitlement (record date)
For the purposes of determining voting and notice entitlements in respect of the Meeting, Shares will be taken to be held by the persons who are registered on the Canadian register as holding the Shares at the close of business (Toronto time) on 5 March 2026. Accordingly, transactions registered after that time will be disregarded in determining entitlements to receive notice of and vote at the Meeting.
3.8
Listings
The Company is listed on the ASX and the TSXV, and the Shares are quoted on the OTCQB Market. Because the Company is a reporting issuer in Canada, it must comply with the requirements of National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations ( NI 51-102 ) of the Canadian Securities Administrators. As a result, the Company must include disclosure required in a management information circular pursuant to NI 51-102, which is set out in Schedule 3 of the Explanatory Memorandum.

11
==> picture [88 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
the sale of the TF Shares and the gross proceeds from the sale of the CF Units to incur eligible “Canadian exploration expenses” (as defined in the Tax Act) that will qualify as “flow-through mining expenditures” (as defined in the Tax Act) (the Qualifying Expenditures ) related to the Company’s exploration activities in Canada on or before 31 December 2027. All Qualifying Expenditures will be renounced in favour of the Canadian applicable subscribers effective 31 December 2026.
The term “flow-through share” is defined under Canadian tax legislation and does not represent a special class of shares under corporate law. Shares issued under the Financing will rank pari passu with existing Shares.
All Securities issued will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. All Shares and Warrants issued will be subject to a hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance (including Shares issued on exercise of the Warrants, whereby the hold period will commence on the date of issuance of the Warrants), and resale rules will apply in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. All Securities will be issued on a private placement basis to institutional, professional and accredited investors.

4.3
Use of funds
The proceeds from the Financing will be used primarily to advance the Company’s exploration program in Newfoundland and Labrador, which is expected to include an expanded drill program across the Company’s Cape Ray, Cape Ray West (including Isle aux Morts Granite), and Bunker Hill Projects.
Additionally, the Company will continue to invest in early-stage exploration activities to further define and advance new and existing targets including Hermitage and Intersection. Finally, proceeds from the Financing will also be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
An amount equal to the aggregate gross proceeds raised from the issuance of the CF Units and the TF Shares (the Commitment Amount ) will be used on or before 31 December 2027 for general exploration expenditures, which will constitute Canadian exploration expenses (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) ( Tax Act ), that will qualify as “flow through mining expenditures” within the meaning of subsection 127(9) of the Tax Act (the Qualifying Expenditures ). The Company shall renounce the Qualifying Expenditures so incurred to the subscribers of the CF Units and the TF Shares, on a pro rata basis, such that the aggregate Commitment Amount shall be deductible against each such subscriber’s income for the calendar year ended 31 December 2026.
In the event that the Company fails to renounce an amount equal to the Commitment Amount as described above, the Company will fully and promptly indemnify each CF Unit and TF Share subscriber for the additional taxes payable by such subscriber as a result of the Company’s failure to renounce the Qualifying Expenditures in accordance with the terms of the CF Subscription Agreements and the TF Subscription Agreements to be entered into between each subscriber (or an agent on behalf of the relevant subscribers) and the Company on or prior to the closing of Tranche Two of the Financing.

4.6 Commitments and Subscription Agreements for Tranche Two
The Company has received firm commitments from various institutions and accredited investors for the full amount of Tranche Two. Pursuant to those commitments, the Company expects to enter into subscription agreements as follows:
-
(a) Premium Flow Through (or Charity Flow Through) : subscription agreements with various Canadian charity investors identified by the CF Provider (each a T2 CF Subscription Agreement ), for the issue of up to of up to 135,000,000 CF Units (comprising 135,000,000 CF Shares and 135,000,000 Warrants) at an issue price of C$0.0544 each. Immediately on issue, these CF Units will be on sold to the T2 CF End Purchasers (defined in Section 12.4 below);
-
(b) Traditional Flow Through: traditional flow through placement subscription agreements with institutions and accredited investors for the issue of up to
13
==> picture [88 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
22,127,660 TF Shares priced at C$0.047 per Share (each a TF Subscription Agreement ); and
- (c) Hard Dollar: hard dollar placement subscription agreements with institutions and accredited investors for the issue of up to 408,973,412 HD Units (comprising 408,973,412 HD Shares and 408,973,412 Warrants) priced at C$0.040 each (each a HD Subscription Agreement ).
Each of the CF Subscription Agreements, each of the TF Subscription Agreements and each of the HD Subscription Agreements (respectively) will be on the same commercial terms (being the key commercial terms outlined above), and otherwise contain customary terms and conditions (including indemnities, representations and warranties) for an agreement of its nature.
In relation to the Premium Flow Through (or Charity Flow Through) component of Tranche Two, in the event that the CF Provider and the Company are unable to identify donors for this issue, these 135,000,000 CF Units or a portion of these 135,000,000 CF Shares may be reallocated to the Hard Dollar component of Tranche Two.
In relation to the Traditional Flow Through and Hard Dollar components of Tranche 2, in the event that any of the relevant institutions or accredited investors do not fulfil their commitment in full by executing a subscription agreement for the full amount of their commitment, the Company reserves the right to re-allocate the Securities the subject of their commitment to other institutions and accredited investors who are either:
-
(a) existing Shareholders of the Company;
-
(b) identified by the Company;
-
(c) identified by the Agents,
(all of whom will be non-related parties of the Company) who will enter into subscription agreements with the Company for the shortfall. This may result in the pricing for the relevant Securities increasing if HD Shares are re-allocated to the TF Offer.
If HD Shares are re-allocated to the TF Offer, they will be issued without the attaching Warrants, as Warrants are not included in the TF Offer.
TF Shares will not be able to be re-allocated to the HD Offer, as the HD Offer includes Warrants which are not being offered to participants in the TF Offer.
For the avoidance of doubt, any re-allocations will not impact the maximum number of Shares and the maximum number of Warrants to be issued pursuant to the Resolutions.
5. RESOLUTIONS 1 TO 3 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF TRANCHE ONE SHARES & WARRANTS - LISTING RULES 7.1 AND 7.1A
5.1 General
These Resolutions seek Shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of an aggregate of 98,376,589 Shares and 98,376,589 Warrants under Tranche One of the Financing, comprising:
-
(a) 19,675,318 Shares to be issued pursuant to the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity ( Resolution 1 );
-
(b) 78,701,271 Shares issued pursuant to the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1A placement capacity ( Resolution 2 ); and
-
(c) 98,376,589 Warrants issued pursuant to the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity ( Resolution 3 ),
on closing of Tranche One of the Financing (expected to be on or about 5 March 2026 (Toronto time).
These Securities will be issued pursuant to subscription agreements between the Company and Canadian charity investors identified by the charity flow through provider appointed by the Company ( CF Provider ) ( T1 CF Subscription Agreements ), pursuant to which, those
14
==> picture [88 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
investors agreed to subscribe for an aggregate of 98,376,589 CF Units (comprising 98,376,589 CF Shares and 98,376,589 Warrants) at an issue price of C$0.0544 each to raise a total of $5,351,686 (before costs).
Each of the T1 CF Subscription Agreements otherwise contains customary terms and conditions (including indemnities, representations and warranties) for an agreement of its nature.
Immediately on issue, the 98,376,589 CF Units will be on-sold by a charitable organization to Condire as back end buyer.
Condire will become a substantial holder of the Company on completion of Tranche One of the Financing, but is not a related party of the Company, nor has it nominated a director to the Board of the Company.
On completion of Tranche Two of the Financing, Condire is expected to have voting power of approximately 19.9% in the Company. The Warrants issued to Condire are subject to a blocker provision that prevents exercise if such exercise would result in Condire holding 20% or more of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares.
Prior to closing of Tranche One of the Financing, the Company intends to lodge a prospectus with ASIC and ASX under which the 98,376,589 CF Units (comprising 98,376,589 CF Shares and 98,376,589 Warrants) will be issued and those CF Shares (and the Shares to be issued on exercise of those Warrants) will be cleansed to facilitate any future secondary trading of those Shares.
For further information with respect to the Financing, refer to Section 4.
5.2
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.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an Eligible Entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%. The Company obtained this approval at its annual general meeting held on Tuesday, 27 May 2025.
The issue 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 Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
5.3
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.
5.4
Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If these Resolutions are passed, the issue 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 the issue.
If these Resolutions are not passed, the issue will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of
15
==> picture [88 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the issue.

6. RESOLUTIONS 4 TO 6 – APPROVAL FOR DIRECTOR PARTICIPATION IN THE FINANCING
6.1 General
These Resolutions seek Shareholder approval for purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 for the following Directors to participate in the Financing on the same terms as non-related party subscribers:
-
(a) Resolution 4 – to permit Mr Sam Pazuki (Managing Director & CEO), to be issued up to 851,064 TF Shares at an issue price of C$0.047 per Share;
-
(b) Resolution 5 – to permit Dr Nicole Adshead-Bell (Non-Executive Director), to be issued up to 1,000,000 HD Units (comprising 1,000,000 HD Shares and 1,000,000 Warrants) at an issue price of C$0.040 each; and
-
(c) Resolution 6 – to permit Mr James Withall (Non-Executive Director), to be issued up to 350,000 HD Units (comprising 350,000 HD Shares and 350,000 Warrants) at an issue price of C$0.040 each,
to raise a total of up to C$94,000 (before costs) ( Director Participation ).
Mr Pazuki, Dr Adshead-Bell and Mr Withall are together referred to as the Participating Directors .
For further information with respect to the Financing refer to Section 4.

(b) the aggregate of up to 1,350,000 HD Shares and 1,350,000 Warrants proposed to be issued to Dr Adshead-Bell and Mr Withall will be issued pursuant to HD Subscription Agreements between the Company and Dr Adshead-Bell and Mr Withall (respectively) (or their respective nominee(s)).
6.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that for a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
-
(a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
-
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.
The issue constitutes giving a financial benefit and the Participating Directors are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors of the Company.
The Directors (other than the Participating Directors who have a material personal interest in the Resolution relevant to them) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue because the Shares will be issued to the Participating Directors (or their nominee(s)) on the same terms as Shares issued to non-related party participants in the Financing and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm’s length terms.
6.3 Listing Rule 10.11
Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:
17
==> picture [88 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
-
10.11.1 a related party;
-
10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;
-
10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;
-
10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or
-
10.11.5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,
unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.
The issue falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.
6.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If these Resolutions are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and will raise additional funds which will be used in the manner set out in Section 4.3. As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.
If these Resolutions are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue and the Company will not raise the additional C$94,000 from the Director Participation.

(c) Expiry Date
Each Warrant will expire at 5.00pm (Toronto time) on the date that is 30 months from the date on which the Warrants were issued ( Expiry Date ). A Warrant not exercised before the Expiry Date will automatically lapse on the Expiry Date.
(d) Notice of Exercise
The Warrants may be exercised in whole or in part at any time prior to the Expiry Date by notice in writing to the Company ( Notice of Exercise ) and payment of the relevant Exercise Price for each Warrant being exercised.
(e) Exercise Date

(f) Timing of issue of Shares on exercise
Within 3 Business Days after the Exercise Date, the Company will:
-
(i) allot and issue the number of Shares required under these terms and conditions in respect of the number of Warrants specified in the Notice of Exercise and for which cleared funds have been received by the Company;
-
(ii) if required, give ASX a notice that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act, or, if the Company is unable to issue such a notice, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors; and
-
(iii) lodge an Appendix 2A or 3G (as applicable) with the ASX in relation to relation to the issue of such Shares.
(g) Shares issued on exercise
Shares issued on exercise of the Warrants rank equally with the then issued shares of the Company (subject to any applicable hold periods or legends under Canadian or US securities laws as contemplated by the Warrant Indenture).
(h) Quotation of Shares/CDIs issued on exercise
Application will be made by the Company to ASX for quotation of the Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrants on TSX-V.

In assessing whether an issue of Shares on exercise of any Warrant would result in a Proscribed Outcome:
37
==> picture [88 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
-
(i) a Warrantholder may give written notification if it considers that the issue of such Shares may result in a Proscribed Outcome. The absence of such written notification from the Warrantholder will entitle the Company and the Warrant Agent to assume the issue of such Shares will not result in any Proscribed Outcome; and
-
(ii) the Company and/or the Warrant Agent may (but is not obliged to) by written notice to the Warrantholder request that the Warrantholder provide the written notice referred to in sub-paragraph (i) above within 5 days of request if the Company and/or the Warrant Agent considers that the issue of any Shares on exercise of any Warrants may result in a Proscribed Occurrence. The absence of such written notification from the Warrantholder will entitle the Company and the Warrant Agent to assume the issue of such Shares will not result in any Proscribed Outcome.
(j) Participation Rights
There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the options. Warrant holders are not entitled to participate in new issues of securities offered to shareholders without first exercising the Warrants.
(k) Reconstruction of capital
If at any time the issued capital of the Company is reconstructed, all rights of a Warrantholder are to be changed in a manner consistent with the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules at the time of the reconstruction.
(l)
Adjustment to Exercise Price for pro rata issue
in the event that a pro rata issue (except a Bonus Issue) of Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Shares is made to shareholders of the Company, the Exercise Price will be reduced according to the following formula as amended in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules from time to time (provided that if the application of the formula results in a number that is less than zero, the Exercise Price will be reduced to zero):
𝑂[′] = 𝑂−[𝐸[𝑃−(𝑆+ 𝐷)]] 𝑁+ 1
where:
-
O' = the new Exercise Price
-
O = the old Exercise Price.
-
E = the number of underlying Shares into which one Warrant is exercisable.
-
P = the volume weighted average market price per Share of the Shares in the Company calculated over the five Trading Days ending on the day before the ex rights date or ex entitlements date.
-
S = the subscription price for a Share under the pro rata issue.
-
D = the dividend due but not yet paid on the existing Shares (except those to be issued under the pro rata issue).
-
N = the number of Shares with rights or entitlements that must be held to receive a right to one new Share.
(m) Bonus Issues
the number of Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of Warrants will be adjusted for Bonus Issues made prior to exercise of Warrants. The number of Shares the subject of the Warrants will be increased so that upon exercise of the Warrants the number of Shares issued to a Warrantholder will include the number of bonus Shares that would have been issued if the Warrants had been exercised and Shares allotted prior to the record date for the Bonus Issue. The Exercise Price shall not change as a result of any such Bonus Issue.
38
==> picture [88 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
