4. BACKGROUND TO RESOLUTIONS 1 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE OF SHARES TO DENALA LIMITED UNDER LISTING RULE 7.1
4.1 Background
On 16 August 2024, the Company announced a placement to sophisticated and professional investors of 16,100,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.25 per Share ( Placement Shares ) to raise $4,025,000, before costs ( Placement ).
The Placement Shares were issued on 16 August 2024 pursuant to prior shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
As part of that issue, the Company issued shares to Denala Limited (Denala) with 15,000,000 new shares ( Denala Shares ) as tranche 2 of the placement at a 5-day VWAP prior to the date of shareholder approval.
4.2 Regulatory requirements
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 that period.
The issue of the Denala Shares does not fit within any Listing Rule 7.1 exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rules 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 for the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Placement Shares.
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 7.1.
If Resolution 1 is passed, the issue of the Denala Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rules 7.1, 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 Placement Shares.
If Resolution 1 is not passed, the issue of the Placement Shares cannot occur and the Company will need to find another option for raising capital.
4.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:
8
(a) The basis on which the persons to whom the Placement Shares will be issued were identified and selected
The Denala Shares will be placed to Denala Limited, a Hong Kong company associated with investments in junior exploration companies. Denala is not a material investor in the Company.[1]
- (b) Number of securities and class of securities to be issued
15,000,000 Ordinary Shares.
- (c) Terms of the securities
The Denala Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares.
- (d) Date of issue
Subject to Shareholder approval being received, it is anticipated that the Placement Shares will be issued on or near 26 September 2024 and otherwise within 3 months after the date of the Meeting.

The issue price per Denala Shares will be the 5-day VWAP prior to the date of shareholder approval.
- (f) Purpose of the issue, including the intended use of funds raised
The purpose of the Denala Shares is to raise funds for exploration and working capital.
- (g) Relevant agreement
The Denala Shares will be issued pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated 15 August 2024 and which were announced on 16 August 2024 and includes the ability for Denala to appoint a director to the Board upon achieving a 17% interest in the issued capital of the Company. Half of the Denala Shares will be escrowed for 6 months from issue, and half will be escrowed for 12 months from issue.
- (h) Voting exclusion statement
A voting exclusion statement has been provided for Resolution 1 in the Special Business section of this Notice of Meeting.
4.4 Board recommendation
The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.
5. RESOLUTION 2 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO ADVISER
5.1 Background
On 31 May 2024, the Company announced that it had issued 519,500 Options expiring on 13 July 2026 at $0.66 ( BRXOA ) to a consultant for marketing services.
The issue of the BRXOA Options were issued under the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity.
-
1 ASX consider the following to be material investors:
-

(ii). a member of the entity’s Key Management Personnel;
(iii). a substantial holder in the entity;
(iv). an adviser to the entity; or
(v). an associate of any of the above,
where such person or entity is being issued more than 1% of the entity’s current issued capital.
9
The purpose of Resolution 2 is to seek the approval of Shareholders to ratify the issue of the BRXOA Options.
5.2 Regulatory requirements
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 that period.
Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to Listing Rule 7.1. It allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of Equity Securities after it has been made or agreed to be made (provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1). If a company receives shareholder approval, 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 issue of the BRXOA Options to the consultant did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 at the time of issue.
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 7.1.
If Resolution 2 is passed, the issue of the BRXOA Options to the consultant will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue.
If Resolution 2 is not passed, the issue of the BRXOA Options to the consultant will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue.
5.3 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 Resolution 2:

-
2 ASX consider the following to be material investors:

-
(ii). a member of the entity’s Key Management Personnel;
-
(iii). a substantial holder in the entity;
-
(iv). an adviser to the entity; or
-
(v). an Associate of any of the above,

5.4 Board recommendation

.
6. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SHARES UNDER LISTING RULE 7.1
6.1 Background
The Company is considering conducting a placement pursuant to which the Company will issue up to 30,000,000 Shares ( Proposed Placement Shares ) (the Proposed Placement ).
Under the Proposed Placement, the Company intends to issue up to 30,000,000 Shares to unrelated parties ( Proposed Placement Participants ) at an issue price of no less than 80% of the 5-day VWAP at the time of issue, the subject of this Resolution 3.
The Proposed Placement Shares represent approximately 20.5% of the Company’s current issued share capital (assuming that all resolutions in this notice are passed and no other Shares are issued).
Resolution 3 seeks Shareholders approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 to issue up to 30,000,000 Proposed Placement Shares to the Proposed Placement Participants.
6.2 Listing Rule 7.1
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 that period.
The issue of the Proposed Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions to Listing Rules 7.1 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it will effectively use up part of the Company’s 25% placement capacity under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A if the Company decides to proceed with the Proposed Placement. This reduces the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under those Listing Rules for the 12-month period following the issue of the Proposed Placement Shares.
The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 3 will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 25% placement capacity set out in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of up to 30,000,000 Proposed Placement Shares to professional and sophisticated investors.
If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of up to 30,000,000 Proposed Placement Shares without using its available placement capacity permitted under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. The Company does not presently have sufficient placement capacity to issue all of the Proposed Placement Shares. Accordingly, if Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of all of the Placement Shares.
11
6.3 Listing Rule 7.3
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 3:
(a) The basis on which the persons to whom the Proposed Placement Shares will be issued will be identified and selected
The Proposed Placement Shares will be issued to the Proposed Placement Participants, who will be sophisticated and institutional investors, none of whom will be a Material Investor.[3] The participants in the Proposed Placement have not been identified, but will be identified through a bookbuild process, which will involve a lead manager seeking expressions of interest to participate in the Proposed Placement from clients of the lead manager.
- (b) Number of securities and class of securities to be issued
A maximum of 30,000,000 Proposed Placement Shares will be issued.
- (c) Terms of the securities
The Proposed Placement Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares on issue.
-
(d) Date of issue
-
Subject to Shareholder approval being received, it is anticipated that the Proposed Placement Shares will be issued within 3 months after the date of the Meeting.
-
(e) Issue price or other consideration
-
The Proposed Placement Shares will be issued at a price that is no less than 80% of the 5-day VWAP as at the issue date.
-
(f) Purpose of the issue, including the intended use of funds raised
-
The proceeds from the issue of the Proposed Placement Shares are intended to be applied towards exploration activity at the TMT project, exploration at the Australian projects and general working capital.
-
(g) Relevant agreement
The Proposed Placement Shares will not be issued pursuant to any agreement.
-
(h) Voting exclusion statement
-
A voting exclusion statement has been provided for Resolution 3 in the Special Business section of this Notice of Meeting.
6.4 Board recommendation
The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.
3 ASX consider the following to be material investors:
(i). a related party of the entity;
(ii). a member of the entity’s Key Management Personnel; (iii). a substantial holder in the entity; (iv). an adviser to the entity; or
