EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

INTRODUCTION

This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared for the information of Shareholders of Centaurus Metals Limited ( Company ) in connection with the business to be conducted at the General Meeting of the Company to be held at the offices of KPMG, Level 8, 235 St Georges Terrace, Perth, Western Australia on Monday 21 October 2019 commencing at 10am (WST).

This Explanatory Memorandum should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Notice of Meeting. The purpose of this Explanatory Memorandum is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions in the Notice of Meeting.

A Shareholder-specific Proxy Form has been dispatched with the Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Memorandum.

1. RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF TRANCHE 1 PLACEMENT SHARES UNDER LISTING RULE 7.1

1.1 Background

On 10 September 2019, the Company announced a capital raising through the issue of a total of 1,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares to sophisticated and professional investors at an issue price of $0.01 per Ordinary Share ( Placement Shares ) to raise a total of $10,000,000 (before costs) ( Placement ).

The Placement comprises two Tranches. Tranche 1 comprised the issue of 592,379,682 Placement Shares ( Tranche 1 Placement Shares ). The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued on 16 September 2019 under the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A capacity as follows:

  • 313,282,546 Placement Shares were issued under Listing Rule 7.1 and are the subject of Resolution 1; and

  • 279,097,136 Placement Shares were issued under Listing Rule 7.1A and are the subject of Resolution 2.

Tranche 2 will comprise 407,620,318 Placement Shares ( Tranche 2 Placement Shares ). Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares.

Funds raised from the Placement will be predominantly used on the Company’s Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project (see the Company’s announcement of 5 September 2019), including:

  • resource drilling activities & JORC Resource definition;

  • exploration drilling on new high priority targets;

  • environmental studies and preparation of an EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment);

  • metallurgical testwork and process flow sheet definition; and

  • vendor payments,

as well as for general working capital purposes (including to fund the costs of the Placement).

1.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

Subject to certain exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 prevents a company in any 12 month period from issuing or agreeing to issue new Equity Securities, or other securities with rights of conversion to Equity Securities (such as an Option), which amount to more than 15% of the company’s ordinary securities on issue, without shareholder approval.

1.3

ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Listing Rule 7.4 permits the ratification of previous issues of securities made without prior shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1, provided the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1. The effect of such ratification is to restore a company's maximum discretionary power to issue further securities up to the limit imposed by Listing Rule 7.1.

The Company confirms the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 1 did not breach Listing Rule 7.1.

Page 4

The Company wishes to ratify the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 1 pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4, in order to allow the Company to have the right to place up to a further 15% of its issued capital under Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

The following information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5 in relation to Resolution 1:

  • (a) on 16 September 2019 the Company issued 313,282,546 Tranche 1 Placement Shares pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1;

  • (b) the Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued for $0.01 each, raising a total of $3,132,825 (before costs);

  • (c) the Tranche 1 Placement Shares are fully paid ordinary shares that rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares;

  • (d) the Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued to sophisticated and professional investors (within the meaning of sections 708(8) – (11) of the Corporations Act), none of whom are Related Parties of the Company;

  • (e) the Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued to fund future activities on the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project, including resource drilling activities & JORC Resource definition, exploration drilling on new high priority targets, environmental studies and preparation of an EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment), metallurgical testwork and process flow sheet definition and vendor payments, as well as for general working capital purposes (including to fund the costs of the Placement); and

  • (f) a voting exclusion statement has been included in the Notice of Meeting for the purposes of Resolution 1.

1.4 Directors’ Recommendation

If Resolution 1 is passed, the 15% limit imposed by Listing Rule 7.1 will be renewed to the extent of the ratification. The Directors unanimously recommend Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

2. RESOLUTION 2 - RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF TRANCHE 1 PLACEMENT SHARES UNDER LISTING RULE 7.1A

2.1 Background

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder ratification of the issue of the 279,097,136 Placement Shares which were issued under the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1A capacity as set out in Section 1.1 above.

2.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

Listing Rule 7.1A permits eligible entities, which have obtained shareholder approval by special resolution at their annual general meeting, to have the capacity to issue or agree to issue a number of Equity Securities during the subsequent 12 month period which represents 10% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue as at the commencement of that 12 month period as adjusted in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1 ( 10% Placement Capacity ).

Approval for the 10% Placement Capacity may only be obtained at the Company’s annual general meeting. The Company previously received Shareholder approval for the 10% Placement Capacity at the Company’s annual general meeting held on 31 May 2019.

2.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Listing Rule 7.4 permits the ratification of previous issues of securities made without prior shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A provided the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1A. The effect of such ratification is to restore a company's maximum discretionary power to issue further securities up to the limit imposed by Listing Rule 7.1A.

The Company confirms the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 2 did not breach Listing Rule 7.1A.

Where an eligible entity obtains shareholder approval to increase its placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A then any ordinary securities issued under that additional placement capacity:

  • (a) will not be counted in variable “A” in the formula in Listing Rule 7.1; and

  • (b) are counted in variable “E”,

Page 5

until their issue has been ratified under Listing Rule 7.4 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1A) or 12 months has passed since their issue.

By ratifying the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 2, the base figure (i.e. variable “A”) on which the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity is calculated will be a higher number which in turn will allow a proportionately higher number of securities to be issued without prior Shareholder approval.

The following information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5 in relation to Resolution 2:

  • (a) on 16 September 2019 the Company issued 279,097,136 Tranche 1 Placement Shares pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A;

  • (b) the Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued for $0.01 each, raising a total of $2,790,971 (before costs);

  • (c) the Tranche 1 Placement Shares are fully paid ordinary shares that rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares;

  • (d) the Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued to sophisticated and professional investors (within the meaning of sections 708(8) – (11) of the Corporations Act), none of whom are Related Parties of the Company;

  • (e) the Placement Shares were issued to fund future activities on the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project, including resource drilling activities & JORC Resource definition, exploration drilling on new high priority targets, environmental studies and preparation of an EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment), metallurgical testwork and process flow sheet definition and vendor payments, as well as for general working capital purposes (including to fund the costs of the Placement); and

  • (f) a voting exclusion statement has been included in the Notice of Meeting for the purposes of Resolution 2.

2.4 Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

3. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE TRANCHE 2 PLACEMENT SHARES

3.1 Background

As discussed in Section 1.1 above, on 16 September 2019 the Company issued 592,379,682 Tranche 1 Placement Shares to professional and sophisticated investors pursuant to the Placement. The terms of the Placement included, subject to Shareholder approval, the issue to participating investors of 407,620,318 Tranche 2 Placement Shares.

The issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares is subject to Shareholders approving Resolution 3.

The requirements of Listing Rule 7.1 are set out in Section 1.2 above. If Shareholders approve Resolution 3, the effect will be to allow the Directors to issue 407,620,318 Tranche 2 Placement Shares to the Placement participants during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without reducing the Company’s 15% placement capacity available under Listing Rule 7.1.

3.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.3

The following information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3 in relation to Resolution 3:

  • (a) the number of Tranche 2 Placement Shares to be issued is 407,620,318;

  • (b) the Tranche 2 Placement Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules), and it is intended that issue of the Placement Shares will occur on one date as soon as practicable after the Meeting;

  • (c) the Tranche 2 Placement Shares will be issued for $0.01 each, raising a total of $4,076,203 (before costs);

  • (d) the Tranche 2 Placement Shares will be issued to the Placement participants, none of whom are Related Parties of the Company;

  • (e) the Tranche 2 Placement Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares that rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares;

Page 6

  • (f) the Tranche 2 Placement Shares will be issued to fund future activities on the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project, including resource drilling activities & JORC Resource definition, exploration drilling on new high priority targets, environmental studies and preparation of an EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment), metallurgical testwork and process flow sheet definition and vendor payments, as well as for general working capital purposes (including to fund the costs of the Placement); and

  • (g) a voting exclusion statement has been included in the Notice of Meeting for the purposes of Resolution 3.

3.3 Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

4. RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SHARES TO TERRATIVA MINERAIS SA

4.1 Background

On 5 September 2019 the Company announced that the board of directors of Vale had approved the sale of the advanced Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project to the Company, and a formal sale & purchase agreement had been executed by the parties.

Part of the purchase consideration for the acquisition is the transfer of the Company’s Salobo West Copper-Gold Project to Vale.

The Salobo West Project tenements were originally acquired from the privately-owned Brazilian resource development group, Terrativa Minerais SA ( Terrativa ), which retained a 2% production royalty over the tenements or a right to elect to receive a 25% share of sale proceeds in the event the Company divested the Salobo West Project to a third party. Conditional on the completion of the acquisition of the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project from Vale, Terrativa has elected to convert its royalty interest to a 25% share of the Salobo West Project sale proceeds.

In that regard, the Company and Terrativa have each agreed that the Company will pay Terrativa up to A$3.5 million over a period of 2.5 years, with the first payment of A$1 million to be paid through the issue of Shares to Terrativa (or its nominee) concurrent with completion of the acquisition of the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project from Vale. The Shares to be issued to Terrativa will be issued at the 10-day VWAP price of Shares immediately prior to the date of the announcement of the acquisition of the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project, being 5 September 2019. The relevant 10-day VWAP was $0.0095, equating to a total of 105,263,157 Shares to be issued to Terrativa.

The requirements of Listing Rule 7.1 are set out in Section 1.2 above. If Shareholders approve Resolution 4, the effect will be to allow the Directors to issue 105,263,157 Shares to Terrativa during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without reducing the Company’s 15% placement capacity available under Listing Rule 7.1.

4.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.3

The following information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3 in relation to Resolution 4:

  • (a) the number of Shares to be issued to Terrativa is 105,263,157;

  • (b) the Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules), and it is intended that issue of the Shares will occur on one date as soon as practicable after the Meeting and the completion of the acquisition of the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project from Vale;

  • (c) the Shares are to be issued at a deemed issue price of $0.0095 each as partial consideration for Terrativa’s share of sale proceeds of the Salobo West Copper-Gold Project;

  • (d) the Shares will be issued to Terrativa, which is not a Related Party of the Company;

  • (e) the Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares that rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares;

  • (f) the Shares will be issued as partial consideration for Terrativa’s share of sale proceeds of the Salobo West Copper-Gold Project; and

  • (g) a voting exclusion statement has been included in the Notice of Meeting for the purposes of Resolution 4.
