This Explanatory Memorandum should be read in conjunction with, and forms part of, the accompanying Notice. The purpose of this Explanatory Memorandum is to provide information to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions set out in the Notice.

A Proxy Form is located at the end of the Explanatory Memorandum.

2

Action to be taken by Shareholders

Shareholders should read the Notice and this Explanatory Memorandum carefully before deciding how to vote on the Resolutions.

3

Proxies

A Proxy Form is attached to the Notice. This is to be used by Shareholders if they wish to appoint a representative (a 'proxy') to vote in their place. All Shareholders are invited to attend the Meeting or, if they are unable to attend, are invited to sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the instructions thereon. Lodgment of a Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting.

To be valid, your Proxy Form (and any power of attorney under which it is signed) must be received at any of the addresses given below by 12:00pm (AWST) on Sunday, 13 November 2022 , being at least 48 hours before the Meeting. Any Proxy Form received after that time will not be valid for the scheduled Meeting.

Online: Use your computer or smartphone to appoint a proxy at https://investor.automic.com.au/#/loginsah or scan the QR code on your Proxy Form using your smartphone and follow the relevant instructions

By Mail: Automic GPO Box 5193 Sydney NSW 2001 By Email: [email protected] By Fax: +61 2 8583 3040 By Hand: Automic Level 5, 126 Phillip Street Sydney NSW 2000

In accordance with section 249L of the Corporations Act, Shareholders are advised that:

  • (a) a member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy;

  • (b) a proxy need not be a member of the Company; and

4

  • (c) a member of the Company entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, but where the proportion or number is not specified, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

By appointing the Chairperson as a proxy (or where the Chairperson becomes proxy by default) the relevant Shareholder gives the Chairperson express authority to exercise the proxy on Resolution 1 (except where the Shareholder has indicated a different voting intention on the Proxy Form) even though Resolution 1 is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of members of the Key Management Personnel, which includes the Chairperson.

As at the date of this Notice of Annual General Meeting, the Chairperson intends to vote undirected proxies IN FAVOUR OF each of the Resolutions. In exceptional cases the Chairperson’s intentions may subsequently change and in this event, the Company will make an announcement to the market.

The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms.

4 Annual Report

The Annual Report of the Company and its controlled entities for the year ended 30 June 2022, which includes the Financial Report, the Directors' Report and the Auditor's Report, will be laid before the Annual General Meeting.

There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve these reports. However, the Chairperson will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions or make comments about these reports and the management of the Company. Shareholders will also be given an opportunity to ask the Auditor questions about the:

  • (a) conduct of the audit;

  • (b) preparation and content of the Auditor's Report;

  • (c) accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements; and

  • (d) independence of the Auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit.

5 Resolution 1 – Approval of Remuneration Report

Section 249L(2) of the Corporations Act requires the Company to inform Shareholders that a resolution on the Remuneration Report will be put at the Annual General Meeting. Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires that a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted be put to the vote. Resolution 1 seeks this approval.

In accordance with Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act, Shareholders should note that Resolution 1 is an “advisory only” Resolution which does not bind the Directors or the Company.

Following consideration of the Remuneration Report, the Chairperson, in accordance with Section 250SA of the Corporations Act, must give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.

The Chairperson intends to exercise all available undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1.

If the Chairperson is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairperson is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, or using the online lodgement facility to complete the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chairperson with an express authorisation for the Chairperson to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairperson’s intention, even though the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of Key Management Personnel.

5

If at least 25% of the votes on Resolution 1 are voted against adoption of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting, and then again at the Company’s 2023 annual general meeting, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the appointment of the Directors other than the Managing Director of the Company ( Spill Resolution ).

If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must convene the extraordinary general meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the Company’s 2023 annual general meeting. All of the Directors who are in office when the Company’s 2023 Directors’ Report is approved, other than the Managing Director of the Company (if any), will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting. Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election is approved will be the directors of the Company.

The Directors abstain, in the interests of good corporate governance, from making a recommendation in relation to Resolution 1.

6 Resolution 2 – Election of Dr Jon Hronsky OAM as a Director

Article 7.14 of the Constitution provides that if the Company has three or more Directors, one third of the Directors (excluding Directors required to retire under Article 7.21 (who were appointed by the Board) and rounded down to the nearest whole number) must retire at each AGM. Pursuant to Article 7.17 of the Constitution, a Director who retires under article 7.14 is eligible for re-election

Additionally, Listing Rule 14.5 provides that a listed entity which has directors must hold an election of directors at each annual general meeting.

Dr Jon Hronsky OAM (BAppSci, PhD, MAIG, FSEG, MAusIMM) is a Non-Executive Director of the Company who was appointed as a Director at the time of the Company's initial incorporation on 17 June 2020.

Dr Jon Hronsky will retire in accordance with the Constitution and ASX Listing Rule 14.5 and, being eligible, seeks election from Shareholders.

Dr Hronsky is a member of the Company's Risk & Audit Committee, Nomination & Remuneration Committee and Technical and ESG Committee.

Dr Hronsky has more than 35 years of experience in the mineral exploration industry, primarily focused on project generation, technical innovation and exploration strategy development. Dr Hronsky has particular experience in gold and nickel sulphide deposits but has worked across a diverse range of commodities. He was responsible for conceptually targeting the West Musgrave nickel sulphide province in Western Australia.

Dr Hronsky is one of the Principals at Western Mining Services, a global geological consultancy and also an Adjunct Professor at the Centre for Exploration Targeting at UWA.

Jon is also a Non-Executive Director of Encounter Resources (ASX: ENR), and is General Partner – Global Targeting and Research at Ibaera Capital. Previously, he was Manager-Strategy & Generative Services for BHP Billiton Mineral Exploration and was Global Geoscience Leader for WMC Resources Ltd.

Jon was, during the last three years, also a Non-Executive Director of Cassini Resources Ltd (ASX: CZI) and he resigned from that position on 1 October 2020.

Dr Hronsky is considered to be an independent Director. The Company has also conducted appropriate checks into Dr Hronsky's background and experience and has disclosed to Shareholders all information that it considers to be relevant to a decision on this Resolution 2.

The Directors (other than Dr Hronsky) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2 to elect Dr Hronsky as a Director, as his skills and experience align with the Company’s strategic direction.

7 Resolution 3 – Additional capacity to issue Equity Securities

7.1 General

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.

Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue Equity Securities of up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12-month period after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Facility ). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of approximately $50.8 million as at 7 October 2022.

Pursuant to Resolution 3, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution for the Company to have the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility without further Shareholder Approval. The number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the 10% Placement Facility to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 3 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of at least 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders entitled to vote on Resolution 3.

7.2 Listing Rule 7.1A

(a) Shareholder approval

The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting.

(b) Equity Securities

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the company.

The Company, as at the date of the Notice, has on issue one quoted class of Equity Securities, being Shares.

(c) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities that have obtained Shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after the date of the annual general meeting, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D) – E

Where:

A

  • is the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (i) plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 (other than exception 9, 16 or 17),

7

  • (ii) plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months on the conversion of convertible securities within rule 7.2 (exception 9) where:

  • (A) the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the 12 months; or

  • (B) the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved, under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4,

  • (iii) plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months under an agreement to issue securities within Listing Rule 7.2 (exception 16) where:

  • (A) the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the relevant period; or

  • (B) the agreement or issue was approved or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4,

  • (iv) plus the number of any other fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months with approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4 (noting that this may include fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months under an agreement to issue securities within Listing Rule 7.2 (exception 17) where the issue is subsequently approved under Listing Rule 7.1),

  • (v) plus the number of partly paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in the 12 months,

  • (vi) less the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled in the 12 months.

Note that A has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity's 15% placement capacity.

(d)

is 10%.

D

is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months where the issue or agreement to issue has not been subsequently approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4.

E

Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A

The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the entity's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

The number of Equity Securities that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A (if Resolution 3 is approved) will be calculated at the date of issue of the Equity Securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to section (c) above).

(e)

Minimum Issue Price

The issue price of Equity Securities to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed by the Company and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) immediately above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

8

(f) 10% Placement Period

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the first to occur of the following:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained;

  • (ii) the time and date of the entity’s next annual general meeting;

  • (iii) the time and date of Shareholder approval of a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking), (the 10% Placement Period ).

7.3 Effect of Resolution 3

The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without using the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

7.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

Pursuant to, and in accordance with, Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided as follows:

Shareholder
Approval Expiry
The Company will only issue the Listing Rule 7.1A Shares during the 10% Placement
Period as detailed in section 7.2(f).
Minimum issue
price
The Equity Securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the VWAP for
the same class of the Company's Equity Securities over the 15 Trading Days on which
trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
(a) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed;
or
(b) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 Trading Days of the date in the
paragraph immediately above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
Indicative use of
funds
The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for cash consideration, which may
be utilised for one or more of funding exploration and/or development activities on the
Company's Yarawindah Brook and Mount Squires Projects, funding of potential
acquisitions and other business opportunities and providing general working capital
funding for the Company.
Risk of Dilution If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities
under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' voting power in the
Company will be diluted as shown in the table in Schedule 2.
There is a risk of economic and voting dilution to the Shareholders, including that:
(a) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities in that class may be
significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date
of the Meeting; and
(b) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price
for the Company's Equity Securities on the issue date.
The table in Schedule 2 shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the
current market price of Shares and the current number of Shares for variable 'A'
calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as at the date of this
Notice.
The table also shows:

9

(a) two examples where variable 'A' has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable 'A' is
based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. The number
of ordinary securities on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities
that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue
or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing
Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders' meeting; and
(b) two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50%
and increased by 100% as against the current market price.
Listing Rules
Disclosures
The Company will comply with its disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A.4, 2.7
and 3.10.3 in relation to any issue of securities under the 10% Placement Facility.
Allocation policy The Company's allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the
time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity of
subscribers for Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility will be
determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to factors including but not limited to
the following:
(a) the purpose of the issue;
(b) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not
limited to, rights issues or other issues in which existing security holders can
participate;
(c) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
(d) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and
(e) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
As at the date of this Notice, the subscribers have not been determined. They may,
however, include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not
a related party or an associate of a related party of the Company and are likely to be
sophisticated and professional investors.
Utilisation in
the preceding
12 months
The Company has not previously issued, nor agreed to issue, any Equity Securities
pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A.2.
Voting exclusion
statement
A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice for Resolution 3. However as at the
date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate
in any proposed issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no
existing Shareholders are anticipated to be excluded from voting on this Resolution.

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • (a) The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.

  • (b) No Options, Performance Rights or other convertible securities are exercised or converted into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities.

  • (c) The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

  • (d) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting.

  • (e) The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (f) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes listed options (for example), it is assumed that those listed options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

  • (g) The issue price is $0.68, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 7 October 2022. The Company will only issue the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period.

Proxy Voting Form

If you are attending the meeting in person, please bring this with you for Securityholder registration.

Holder Number:

Your proxy voting instruction must be received by 12.00pm (WST) on Sunday, 13 November 2022, being not later than 48 hours before the commencement of the Meeting. Any Proxy Voting instructions received after that time will not be valid for the scheduled Meeting.

SUBMIT YOUR PROXY

Complete the form overleaf in accordance with the instructions set out below.

YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS

The name and address shown above is as it appears on the Company’s share register. If this information is incorrect, and you have an Issuer Sponsored holding, you can update your address through the investor portal: https://investor.automic.com.au/#/home Shareholders sponsored by a broker should advise their broker of any changes.

STEP 1 – APPOINT A PROXY

If you wish to appoint someone other than the Chair of the Meeting as your proxy, please write the name of that Individual or body corporate. A proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company. Otherwise if you leave this box blank, the Chair of the Meeting will be appointed as your proxy by default. DEFAULT TO THE CHAIR OF THE MEETING Any directed proxies that are not voted on a poll at the Meeting will default to the Chair of the Meeting, who is required to vote these proxies as directed. Any undirected proxies that default to the Chair of the Meeting will be voted according to the instructions set out in this Proxy Voting Form, including where the Resolutions are connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of KMP.

STEP 2 - VOTES ON ITEMS OF BUSINESS

You may direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. All your shares will be voted in accordance with such a direction unless you indicate only a portion of voting rights are to be voted on any item by inserting the percentage or number of shares you wish to vote in the appropriate box or boxes. If you do not mark any of the boxes on the items of business, your proxy may vote as he or she chooses. If you mark more than one box on an item your vote on that item will be invalid.

APPOINTMENT OF SECOND PROXY

You may appoint up to two proxies. If you appoint two proxies, you should complete two separate Proxy Voting Forms and specify the percentage or number each proxy may exercise. If you do not specify a percentage or number, each proxy may exercise half the votes. You must return both Proxy Voting Forms together. If you require an additional Proxy Voting Form, contact Automic Registry Services.
