E X P L A N A T O R Y S T A T E M E N T

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. BACKGROUND TO THE RESOLUTIONS

1.1 Share Placement

The Company announced on 11 March 2025 that it had secured a financial commitment from new wholesale investors ( Share Placement Participants ) to raise $500,000 (before costs) via the issue of 200,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.0025 per Share ( Share Placement ).

On 18 March 2025, the Company issued 100,000,000 Shares under Listing Rule 7.1 (being, the subject of Resolution 1) and 100,000,000 Shares under Listing Rule 7.1A (being, the subject of Resolution 2) to the Share Placement Participants.

1.2 Lead Manager

The Company engaged ACNS Capital Markets Pty Ltd ATF The ACNS Unit Trust T/AS Alto Capital (ABN 93 088 503 208) (AFSL 279099) ( Alto Capital ) to provide lead manager services in relation to the Share Placement pursuant to a mandate letter ( Lead Manager Mandate ).

Pursuant to the Lead Manager Mandate, the Company has agreed to:

  • (a) pay Alto Capital a management fee of 2% of the funds raised under the Share Placement, being $10,000; and

  • (b) pay Alto Capital a placement fee of 4% of the funds raised under the Share Placement, being $20,000.

Additionally, Alto Capital is entitled to apply for 10,000,000 unlisted Options on the same terms as the Option Placement.

Shareholder approval is sought pursuant to Resolution 6 for Alto Capital’s participation in the Option Placement.

1.3 Option Placement

The Company also announced on 11 March 2025 that, subject to Shareholder approval, it intends to conduct a placement of 1,150,000,000 unlisted Options at an issue price of $0.00001 per Option to raise up to $11,500 (before costs) ( Option Placement ) to sophisticated and professional investors ( Option Placement Participants ).

The Options will be exercisable at $0.005 each on or before the date which is two years from the date of issue and will otherwise be issued on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 1.

Directors Sanjay Loyalka and Ross Cotton wish to participate in the Option Placement as follows:

  • (a) Mr Loyalka wishes to subscribe for 50,000,000 Options, Shareholder approval of which is sought pursuant to Resolution 4; and

  • (b) Mr Cotton wishes to subscribe for 200,000,000 Options, Shareholder approval of which is sought pursuant to Resolution 5.

As noted in Section 1.2, Alto Capital is also entitled to participate in the Option Placement and apply for up to 10,000,000 unlisted Options on the same terms as the Option Placement.

Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the issue of the balance of up to 890,000,000 Options to the Option Placement Participants pursuant to Resolution 3.

5

/1492_3

The Resolutions which relate to the Option Placement (being Resolutions 3 to 6) are interconditional upon one another. If any one or more of Resolutions 3 to 6 are not approved by Shareholders, the Option Placement will not proceed.

1.4 Financial Adviser

The Company engaged Pareto Capital Pty Ltd (ABN 43 131 858 681) ( Pareto Capital ) to provide general corporate advice and services pursuant to an engagement letter, including advising the Company on the placement of any shortfall upon the close of the Option Placement and non-renounceable rights issue. Pareto Capital will receive a 6% fee on all funds raised.

1.5 Use of Funds

The proceeds of the Share Placement and Option Placement are to be used for:

  • (a) exploration expenditure including surveys and drilling, prioritising exploration at the newly acquired and highly prospective Central Yilgarn Project (Yerilgee & Evanston) but also following up existing targets generated at the Laverton Project;

  • (b) care and maintenance costs at the Nelson Bay River Project; and

  • (c) general working capital.

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

2.1 General

These Resolutions seek Shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of an aggregate of 200,000,000 Shares pursuant to the Share Placement. Further details of the Share Placement are set out in Section 1.1 above.

100,000,000 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (being, the subject of Resolution 1) and 100,000,000 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A (being, the subject of Resolution 2).

2.2 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 22 November 2024.

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.

2.3 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.

6

/1492_3

2.4 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 12m o n t h 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 equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of the issue.

7

/1492_3

The Options will be exercisable at $0.005 each on or before the date which is two years from the date of issue and otherwise on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 1.

As set out above:

  • (a) Directors Sanjay Loyalka and Ross Cotton wish to participate in the Option Placement and subscribe up to an aggregate of 250,000,000 Options (refer to Section 1.3); and

  • (b) Alto Capital is entitled to participate in the Option Placement and subscribe up to an aggregate of 10,000,000 Options (refer to Section 1.2).

Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the balance of up to 890,000,000 Options to the Option Placement Participants.

3.2 Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.

The proposed issue falls within exception 17 of Listing Rule 7.2. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

3.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If this Resolution is passed (and all of Resolutions 4 to 6 are also passed), the Company will be able to proceed with the issue. 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 this Resolution is not passed (or any of Resolutions 4 to 6 are not passed), the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue pursuant to the Option Placement and the Company will need to consider raising capital via alternative means.

3.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3

REQUIRED INFORMATION DETAILS

4. RESOLUTIONS 4 AND 5 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE OPTIONS TO SANJAY LOYALKA AND ROSS COTTON – OPTION PLACEMENT

4.1 General

These Resolutions seeks Shareholder approval for purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of up to 50,000,000 Options to Sanjay Loyalka (or his nominee(s)) and 200,000,000 Options to Ross Cotton (or his nominee(s)), to enable their participation in the Company’s Option Placement on the same terms as unrelated Option Placement Participants as set out in Section 1.3 above.

4.2 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 Mr Loyalka is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.

The Directors (other than Mr Loyalka and Mr Cotton who have a material personal interest in the Resolutions) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue because the Options will be issued to Mr Loyalka (or his nominee(s)) or Mr Cotton (or his nominee(s)) on the same terms as the Options issued to non-related party Option Placement Participants in the Option Placement and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm’s length terms.

4.3 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:

  • 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.

9

/1492_3

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.

4.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If the Resolutions are passed (and Resolutions 3 and 6 are also 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 up to $2,500 (before costs) as part of the Option Placement which will be used in the manner set out in Section 1.5 above. 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 either of the Resolutions are not passed (or either of Resolutions 3 and 6 are not passed), the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue and no further funds will be raised from Mr Loyalka’s and Mr Cotton’s participation in the Option Placement.

4.5 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 10.13

Completion of the Dreadnought Agreement occurred on 29 January 2025.

This Resolution seeks Shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 72,500,000 Shares to Dreadnought Resources on 28 January 2025 pursuant to the Dreadnought Agreement.

6.2 Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.

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 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 the issue.

/1492_3

6.3 Listing Rule 7.4

A summary of Listing Rule 7.4 is set out in Section 2.3 above.

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.

6.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If this Resolution is passed, the issue 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 the issue.

If this Resolution is not passed, the issue 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 the issue.
