ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

31 October 2025

September 2025 Quarterly Activities Report

Battery minerals and gold explorer Charger Metals NL (ASX: CHR , “ Charger ” or “ the Company ”) is pleased to provide the following Activities Report for the quarter ended 30 September 2025 (the “ Quarter ”).

HIGHLIGHTS

Lake Johnston Lithium and Gold Project, Western Australia

  • Rio Tinto Exploration Pty Limited (“RTX”) and Charger agreed to the 2025 exploration programme for the Lake Johnston Lithium Project, with a budget of $1.1 million to be sole funded by RTX.

  • Medcalf Lithium Deposit maiden Inferred Mineral Resource estimate (“MRE”) of 8.2Mt @ 1.0% Li2O.

  • An Exploration Target[1] of 3 – 5Mt @ 1.0% - 1.4% Li2O has been defined at the adjacent Medcalf West Prospect approximately 400m to the west.

  • +3,000m Reverse Circulation ("RC") drill programme was fully permitted at Lake Johnston during the quarter to drill test:

  • five priority lithium (and gold) targets at the Mt Gordon prospects; and

  • the Whitten Lithium Caesium Tantalum (“LCT”) pegmatite target at the Mt Day prospect.

  • RC drill programme commenced in Oct’25 with 9 holes and 1,206 metres completed to date and assay results expected within 6 to 9 weeks.

  • Exploration continued to be funded by RTX, as per the farm-in agreement for the Lake Johnston Lithium Project (RTX Agreement). RTX can earn an initial 51% by sole funding $10 million in exploration expenditure.

  • Charger has planned a fully permitted drill programme focused on the Richard Gold Prospect to take place in Nov’25 .

1. Cautionary Statement: The potential quantity and grade of the Medcalf West Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration work to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in defining a Mineral Resource.

Corporate

  • At 30 Sept’25 cash $2.26M ($2.67M at 30 Jun’25).

  • Only 77.4 million ordinary shares on issue - undiluted market capitalisation of ~$5.6M.

  • Charger continues to evaluate new project opportunities in the gold and battery metals sectors.

  • A Board re-structure took place on 2 Sept 2025, appointing Bryan Dixon as Managing Director and Tim Armstrong as a Non-Executive Director.

Charger’s Managing Director, Bryan Dixon, commented:

“The maiden Medcalf Mineral Resource of 8.2Mt @ 1.0% Li2O highlights the potential for Charger’s Lake Johnston Lithium and Gold Project and is a reward for the systematic greenfields exploration managed by the Company. The lithium mineralisation hosted by outcropping, high-grade spodumene-bearing pegmatites which bodes well for potential future mining scenarios.

“The significant Medcalf West Exploration Target of 3 – 5Mt @ 1.0% – 1.4% Li2O was estimated from high-grade lithium-in-pegmatite drill intersections and pegmatite outcrops. The maiden resource and defined exploration targets highlights the potential to significantly grow further near-surface resources within the greater Lake Johnston Lithium and Gold Project. The fact that both Medcalf and Medcalf West remain open adds to the growth potential.

“A further 3,000m RC drill programme commenced at Lake Johnston Lithium and Gold Project during Oct’25. All six areas to be tested by this drill programme are defined by lithium-in-soils anomalies, with several having associated and gold anomalism. None of these six areas have been previously drill-tested for lithium.”

LAKE JOHNSTON LITHIUM PROJECT, WESTERN AUSTRALIA (CHR 100% INTEREST, RTX EARNING IN)

Background

In Mar’25, the Company announced that it had agreed with RTX an exploration program with a budget of $1.1 million to be spent over the following 9 months at Lake Johnston Lithium Project (“ Lake Johnston ”) in Western Australia (100% Charger; RTX earning-in).

Medcalf Mineral Resource Estimate

In Aug’25, Charger Metals NL ( ASX: CHR , “ Charger” or the “ Company” ) was pleased to report a maiden MRE of 8.2Mt @ 1.0% Li2O at a 0.5% Li2O cut-off for the Medcalf Lithium Deposit[1] . The Mineral Resource estimate was completed by Ashmore Advisory Pty Ltd (“Ashmore”). The Statement of Mineral Resources is reported in line with requirements of the 2012 JORC Code and is therefore suitable for public reporting.

Medcalf West Exploration Target - 3 – 5Mt

In addition to this resource, an Exploration Target of 3 – 5Mt @ 1.0% – 1.4% Li2O has been estimated for the Medcalf West Lithium Prospect[1] , which lies immediately to the west of the Medcalf Lithium Deposit. Importantly, both Medcalf and Medcalf West remain open at depth. The potential quantity and grade of the Medcalf West Exploration Target is conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. The Exploration Target has been prepared and reported in accordance with the 2012 edition of the JORC Code.

The locations of the Medcalf Mineral Lithium MRE and Medcalf West Lithium Exploration Target are shown in Figure 1.

RC drill programme at Lake Johnston Lithium and Gold Project

In Oct’25, a 3,000m RC drilling programme commenced at its Lake Johnston Lithium and Gold Project. The programme covers six priority, but previously untested, lithium targets. This programme is being managed by Charger and funded by RTX pursuant to RTX’s farm-in agreement with Charger..[2] As at the date of this report, 9 holes and 1,206 metres completed under this programme with initial assays expected within 6 to 9 weeks.

Mt Gordon Drill Targets

The Mt Gordon programme will focus on five priority target areas across the Mt Gordon prospect defined by lithium, gold and niobium in-soils anomalies and/or structural positions interpreted from geophysics (Figure 4).

==> picture [490 x 336] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 4. Mt Gordon Lithium, Gold and Niobium Prospects showing the location of planned RC drill-holes in relation to the five defined target areas over aeromagnetics (RTP_1VD).

Mt Gordon is located between Charger’s Medcalf Lithium Deposit and TG6 Metals Ltd’s Burmeister and Jaegermeister Lithium Exploration Targets (see Figure 6).

Some of the lithium anomalies also overlap with gold anomalies identified from both soil sampling and prior RAB and air-core drilling[3] . Importantly, the high-grade gold intervals are located at the base of the saprolite evidenced in many of the shallow RAB and air-core drill-holes ending in anomalous (>0.10 g/t Au) gold values. This strongly suggests potential for further in-situ gold mineralisation in the fresh rock below. The gold potential of this trend has not been further tested since 2012.

BYNOE LITHIUM PROJECT, NORTHERN TERRITORY (100% INTEREST)

Background

The Bynoe Lithium Project is located ~ 35 km southwest of Darwin, Northern Territory, with excellent access and nearby infrastructure. Charger drilled 3 diamond drill-holes and 66 RC drill-holes across seven prospective target areas at Bynoe, with the results confirming lithium and tantalum mineralisation at three of the prospects: Enterprise, Utopia and 7Up. More than 20 identified lithium prospects within the Bynoe Project are yet to be drill tested.

On 7 Nov 2024, Charger announced it had exercised its pre-emptive right to acquire the remaining 30% of the Bynoe Lithium Project from Livium Limited (ASX:LIT; “Livium”) for $0.5M cash consideration.[4] The exercise of the pre-emptive right was on the same terms as, but subsequent to, a sale agreement between Core Lithium Limited (ASX:CXO; “Core”) and Livium for Core to acquire the 30%.[5] Core retains a 9.8% interest in Charger acquired from Livium.

  • On 6 Nov 2024, Core’s ASX announcement “New high grade Lithium drill results within 20km of the Grants processing facility” stated “ Excellent new lithium drilling results at the Blackbeard Prospect, including 63m @ 1.67% Li2O ”. On 14 May 2025, Core announced to the ASX “Updated Finniss Lithium Project Reserve and Resource” that is Blackbeard Lithium Prospect had an Exploration target of 7 - 10Mt at 1.5 - 1.7% Li2O which sits less than 50m from Charger’s tenement boundary (see Figure 7).
