This Prospectus is dated 12 December 2025 and was lodged with the ASIC on that date. The ASIC, ASX and their respective officers take no responsibility for the contents of this Prospectus or the merits of the investment to which this Prospectus relates.

No Securities may be issued on the basis of this Prospectus later than 13 months after the date of this Prospectus.

No person is authorised to give information or to make any representation in connection with this Prospectus, which is not contained in this Prospectus. Any information or representation not so contained may not be relied on as having been authorised by the Company in connection with this Prospectus.

It is important that investors read this Prospectus in its entirety and seek professional advice where necessary. The Securities offered by this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative.

Applications for Securities offered pursuant to this Prospectus can only be submitted on an original Application Form.

This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been prepared in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public offering prospectus and is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

Representations contained in this Prospectus are made taking into account that the Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and certain matters are publicly available information or may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and professional advisers whom prospective investors may consult.

No Investment Advice

The information contained in this Prospectus is not financial product advice or investment advice and does not take into account your financial or investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs (including financial or taxation issues). You should seek professional advice from your accountant, financial adviser, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser before deciding to subscribe for Securities under this Prospectus to determine whether it meets your objectives, financial situation and needs.

Forward-looking statements

This Prospectus contains forward-looking statements which are identified by words such as ‘may’, ‘could’, ‘believes’, ‘estimates’, ‘targets’, ‘expects’, or ‘intends’ and other similar words that involve risks and uncertainties.

These statements are based on an assessment of present economic and operating conditions, and on a number of assumptions regarding future events and actions that, as at the date of this Prospectus, are expected to take place.

Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are beyond the control of the

Company, the Directors and the Company’s management.

The Company cannot and does not give any assurance that the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus will actually occur and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forwardlooking statements.

The Company has no intention to update or revise forward-looking statements, or to publish prospective financial information in the future, regardless of whether new information, future events or any other factors affect the information contained in this Prospectus, except where required by law.

These forward-looking statements are subject to various risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or anticipated in these statements. These risk factors are set out in Section 5.

Applicants outside Australia

The distribution of this Prospectus in jurisdictions outside Australia may be restricted by law and persons who come into possession of this Prospectus should seek advice on and observe any of these restrictions. Any failure to comply with such restrictions may constitute a violation of applicable securities laws. This Prospectus does not constitute an offer of Securities in any jurisdiction where, or to any person to whom, it would be unlawful to issue in this Prospectus. Refer to Section 2.10 for further details.

Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Securities.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the three months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Please refer to Section 6.1 for further details.

Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS)

and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company will apply to participate in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company.

Electronic sub-registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with statements (similar to a bank account statement) that set out the number of Securities issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Electronic sub-registers also mean ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation. Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

2.10 Applicants outside Australia

The distribution of this Prospectus outside Australia may be restricted by law and therefore persons into whose possession this document comes should seek advice on and observe any such restrictions. Any failure to comply with these restrictions constitutes a violation of those laws.

The Offers do not, and are not intended to, constitute an offer in any place or jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or to issue this Prospectus.

Accordingly, the Offers are not being extended and Securities will not be issued to applicants with a registered address which is outside Australia except to the extent permitted below.

Canada – Options Offer only

This document constitutes an offering of New Options only in the Provinces of British Columbia and Ontario (the Provinces ), only to persons to whom New Options may be lawfully distributed in the Provinces, and only by persons permitted to sell such securities. This document is not a prospectus, an advertisement or a public offering of securities in the Provinces. This document may only be distributed in the Provinces to persons that are (i) “accredited investors” (as defined in National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions) and (ii) “permitted clients” (as defined in National Instrument 31-103 – Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations) if a lead manager offering the New Options in Canada is relying upon the international dealer exemption under NI 31103.

No securities commission or authority in the Provinces has reviewed or in any way passed upon this document, the merits of the New Options or the offering of New Options and any representation to the contrary is an offence. No prospectus has been, or will be, filed in the Provinces with respect to the offering of New Options or the resale of such securities. Any person in the Provinces lawfully participating in the offer will not receive the information, legal rights or protections that would be afforded had a prospectus been filed and receipted by the securities regulator in the applicable Province. Furthermore, any resale of the New Options in the Provinces must be made in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. While such resale restrictions generally do not apply to a first trade in a security of a foreign, non-Canadian reporting issuer that is made through an exchange or market outside Canada, Canadian purchasers should seek legal advice prior to any resale of the New Options.

The Company as well as its directors and officers may be located outside Canada and, as a result, it may not be possible for purchasers to effect service of process within Canada upon the Company or its directors or officers. All or a substantial portion of the assets of the Company and such persons may be located outside Canada and, as a result, it may not be possible to satisfy a judgment against the Company or such persons in Canada or to enforce a judgment obtained in Canadian courts against the Company or such persons outside Canada.

5

5626-03/3868755_6

Statutory rights of action for damages and rescission . Securities legislation in certain Provinces may provide a purchaser with remedies for rescission or damages if an offering memorandum contains a misrepresentation, provided the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser’s Province. A purchaser may refer to any applicable provision of the securities legislation of the purchaser’s Province for particulars of these rights or consult with a legal adviser.

Certain Canadian income tax considerations . Prospective purchasers of the New Options should consult their own tax adviser with respect to any taxes payable in connection with the acquisition, holding or disposition of the New Options as there are Canadian tax implications for investors in the Provinces.

3. PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF THE OFFERS

3.1 Purpose of the Offers

Option Offer

The purpose of the Options Offer is to remove any trading restrictions attaching to the New Options issued under the Options Offer and any Shares issued on exercise of these New Options, given that the New Options offered under the Options Offer are being issued with disclosure under this Prospectus.

Subject to ASX granting Official Quotation of the New Options, this will allow holders to trade the New Options on the ASX and ensure that any Shares issued on exercise of the New Options can be on-sold within 12 months of their issue, without a disclosure document for the on-sale offer.

No funds will be raised directly under the Options Offer as the New Options are being issued free attaching, in consideration for the provision of services or as compensation for loan monies advanced to the Company, at a nil issue price. However, if all of the New Options are exercised, the Company will receive approximately $4,347,375 in aggregate, by virtue of payment of the exercise price.

The principal effect of the Options Offer, assuming all New Options offered under the Options Offer are issued, will be to increase the total number of Options on issue by 43,473,750 on completion of the Options Offer.

Cleansing Offer

The purpose of the Cleansing Offer is to remove any trading restrictions that may have attached to Shares issued by the Company prior to the Closing Date of the Cleansing Offer (including prior to the date of this Prospectus).

4. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SECURITIES

4.1 Rights and Liabilities attaching to Shares

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to Shares being offered pursuant to this Prospectus and which will be issued upon exercise of the New Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares which will be issued upon exercise of the New Options are set out in the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

  • (a) General meetings

Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company. The Company’s constitution permits the use of technology at general meetings of shareholders (including wholly virtual meetings) to the extent permitted under the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules and applicable law.

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with section 249D of the Corporations Act and the Constitution of the Company.

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at general meetings of shareholders or classes of shareholders:

  • (i) each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative;

  • (ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder has one vote; and

  • (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder shall, in respect of each fully paid Share held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for each Share held, but in respect of partly paid Shares shall have such number of votes as bears the same proportion to the total of such shares registered in the Shareholder’s name as the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

(c) Dividend rights

Subject to the rights of any preference Shareholders and to the rights of the holders of any Shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividend, the Directors may from time to time declare a dividend to be paid to the Shareholders entitled to the dividend which shall be payable on all Shares according to the proportion that the amount paid (not credited) is of the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) in respect of such Shares.

The Directors may from time to time pay to the Shareholders any interim dividends as they may determine. No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company. The Directors may set aside out of the profits of the Company any amounts that they may determine as reserves, to be applied at the discretion of the Directors, for any purpose for which the profits of the Company may be properly applied.

Subject to the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, the Company may, by resolution of the Directors, implement a dividend reinvestment plan on such terms and conditions as the Directors think fit and which provides for any dividend which the Directors may declare from time to time payable on Shares which are participating Shares in the dividend reinvestment plan, less any amount which the Company shall either pursuant to the Constitution or any law be entitled or

9

5626-03/3868755_6

obliged to retain, be applied by the Company to the payment of the subscription price of Shares.

(d) Winding-up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, divide among the Shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

(e) Shareholder liability

As the Shares issued will be fully paid shares, they will not be subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(f) Transfer of shares

Generally, shares in the Company are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules.

(g) Future increase in capital

The issue of any new Shares is under the control of the Directors of the Company. Subject to restrictions on the issue or grant of Shares contained in the ASX Listing Rules, the Constitution and the Corporations Act (and without affecting any special right previously conferred on the holder of an existing share or class of shares), the Directors may issue Shares as they shall, in their absolute discretion, determine.

(h) Variation of rights

Under section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to Shares.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three quarters of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(i) Alteration of Constitution

In accordance with the Corporations Act, the Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. In addition, at least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

4.2 Rights and Liabilities attaching to New Options

(a) Entitlement

Each New Option entitles the holder to subscribe for one Share upon exercise of the New Option.

10

5626-03/3868755_6

(g) Timing of issue of Shares on exercise

Within five Business Days after the Exercise Date, the Company will:

  • (i) issue the number of Shares required under these terms and conditions in respect of the number of New Options specified in the Notice of Exercise and for which cleared funds have been received by the Company;

  • (ii) if required, give ASX a notice that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act, or, if the Company is unable to issue such a notice, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors; and

  • (iii) if admitted to the official list of ASX at the time, apply for official quotation on ASX of Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the New Options.

If a notice delivered under (g)(ii) for any reason is not effective to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors, the Company must, no later than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such notice being ineffective, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors.

  • (h)

Shares issued on exercise

Shares issued on exercise of the New Options rank equally with the then issued shares of the Company.

  • (i)

Reorganisation

If there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company (including any subdivision, consolidation, reduction, return or cancellation of such issued capital of the Company), the rights of the holder will be changed to the extent

5. RISK FACTORS

5.1 Introduction

The Securities offered under this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative and an investment in the Company is not risk free.

The Directors strongly recommend that prospective investors to consider the risk factors set out in this Section 5, together with information contained in this Prospectus.

The future performance of the Company and the value of the Securities may be influenced by a range of factors, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The key risks associated with the Company’s business, the industry in which it operates and general risks applicable to all investments in listed securities and financial markets generally are described below.

The risks factors set out in this Section 5, or other risk factors not specifically referred to, may have a materially adverse impact on the performance of the Company and the value of the Securities. This Section 5 is not intended to provide an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

If you do not understand any matters contained in this Prospectus or have any queries about whether to invest in the Company, you should consult your accountant, financial adviser, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser.

5.2 Company and industry specific

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Additional
requirements for
capital
The Company’s capital requirements depend on numerous
factors. Depending on the Company’s ability to generate
income from its operations, the Company may require further
financing to develop its business in addition to amounts raised
under the Placements. Any additional equity financing will
dilute shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may
involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. If the
Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed,
it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations and
scale back its exploration programmes as the case may be.
There is however no guarantee that the Company will be able
to secure any additional funding or be able to secure funding
on terms favourable to the Company.
Going Concern The Company’s report for the financial year ending
31 December 2024 (Financial Report) includes a note on the
financial condition of the Company and the possible existence
of a material uncertainty about the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern.
Notwithstanding the ‘going concern’ qualification included in
the Financial Report, the Directors believe that following
completion of the Placements, the Company has sufficient
funds to adequately meet the Company’s current exploration
commitments and short term working capital requirements.
Agents and
Contractors
The Company intends to outsource substantial parts of its
exploration activities pursuant to service contracts with third
party contractors. The Company is yet to enter into these
formal arrangements. The Directors are unable to predict the
risk of financial failure or default of the insolvency of any of the
contractors that will be used by the Company in any of its
activities or other managerial failure by any of the other service
providers used by the Company for any activity. Contractors
may also underperform their obligations of their contract, and
in the event that their contract is terminated,the Company

13

5626-03/3868755_6

may not be able to find a suitable replacement on satisfactory
terms.
Title of mining claims The Company holds interests in mining claims, licences, permits
and other mineral tenures in a number of jurisdictions. These
interests are governed by the mining, environmental and land
access laws applicable in each jurisdiction.
The Company’s projects are held under various forms of
mineral tenure, including interests where the state or
government retains legal title to the land and/or minerals, and
the Company (or its subsidiaries) holds contractual, licence or
concession rights to explore for and, if permitted, develop and
extract minerals. In such cases, the Company’s rights are
typically possessory or contractual in nature and may be
subject to challenge by governmental authorities or third
parties.
Each tenement is subject to various conditions with which the
holder must comply, which may include payment of annual
rents, rates, fees, royalties or other charges, completion of
minimum exploration or development work commitments,
environmental
and
rehabilitation
obligations,
reporting
requirements and other regulatory conditions. Failure to satisfy
these obligations may result in penalties, suspension, non-
renewal, forfeiture or other loss or impairment of the relevant
tenement.
The Company will follow the regulated processes under the
relevant legislation and regulatory regimes to seek to ensure
continuity of its tenure and planned activities. However, the
Company could lose title to, or its interest in, any of its existing
or future tenements if they are not properly maintained,
renewed or transferred, or if the conditions attaching to them
are not satisfied.
Access and third
party interests
Third-party land and resource interests may overlap, adjoin or
otherwise affect the Company’s tenements. These may
include private or agricultural land, infrastructure, protected or
sensitive areas and, where applicable, indigenous or
traditional land interests. In many jurisdictions, the Company is
required
to
negotiate
access
and/or
compensation
arrangements with landowners, occupiers, communities
and/or government authorities before carrying out exploration
or mining activities. Failure to secure, maintain or comply with
such arrangements, or delays or restrictions in obtaining land
access, may limit where and when the Company can operate,
increase costs, or adversely affect the timing, scope or
feasibility of the Company’s projects.
Overseas operations In addition to its Australian projects, the Company has projects
that are located in the United States. Consequently, the
Company will be subject to the risks associated with operating
in that jurisdiction. Such risks can include economic, social or
political instability or change, hyperinflation, currency non-
convertibility or instability and changes of law affecting foreign
ownership,
government
participation,
taxation,
working
conditions, rates of exchange, exchange control, exploration
licensing, export duties, repatriation of income or return of
capital, environmental protection, mine safety, labour relations
as well as government control over mineral properties or
government regulations.
Changes to mining or investment policies and legislation or a
shift in political attitude may adversely affect the Company’s
operations and profitability.

14

5626-03/3868755_6

Climate Risk There are a number of climate-related factors that may affect
the operations and proposed activities of the Company. The
climate change risks particularly attributable to the Company
include:
(a)
the emergence of new or expanded regulations
associated with the transitioning to a lower-carbon
economy and market changes related to climate
change mitigation. The Company may be impacted
by changes to local or international compliance
regulations related to climate change mitigation
efforts, or by specific taxation or penalties for carbon
emissions or environmental damage. These examples
sit amongst an array of possible restraints on industry
that may further impact the Company and its
profitability. While the Company will endeavour to
manage these risks and limit any consequential
impacts, there can be no
guarantee that the
Company
will
not
be
impacted
by
these
occurrences; and
(b)
climate change may cause certain physical and
environmental risks that cannot be predicted by the
Company, including events such as increased
severity of weather patterns and incidence of
extreme weather events and longer-term physical
risks such as shifting climate patterns. All these risks
associated with climate change may significantly
change the industry in which the Company operates.
Exploration The mineral tenements of the Company are at various stages
of exploration, and potential investors should understand that
mineral
exploration
and
development
are
high-risk
undertakings.
There can be no assurance that exploration of these
tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired in
the future, will result in the discovery of an economic ore
deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there
is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.
The future exploration activities of the Company may be
affected by a range of factors including geological conditions,
limitations on activities due to seasonal weather patterns,
unanticipated operational and technical difficulties, industrial
and environmental accidents, native title process, changing
government regulations and many other factors beyond the
control of the Company.
The success of the Company will also depend upon the
Company having access to sufficient development capital,
being able to maintain title to its tenements and obtaining all
required approvals for its activities. In the event that exploration
programmes prove to be unsuccessful this could lead to a
diminution in the value of the tenements and possible
relinquishment of the tenements.
The exploration costs of the Company are based on certain
assumptions with respect to the method and timing of
exploration. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions
are subject to significant uncertainties and, accordingly, the
actual costs may materially differ from these estimates and
assumptions.

15

5626-03/3868755_6

Metallurgy When compared with many industrial and commercial
operations, mining exploration projects are high risk. Each ore
body is unique and the nature of the mineralisation, the
occurrence and grade of the ore, as well as its behaviour
during mining can never be wholly predicted. Estimations of a
mineral deposit are not precise calculations but are based on
interpretation and on samples from drilling which represent a
very small sample of the entire ore body.
Reconciliation of past production and reserves, where
available, can confirm the reasonableness of past estimates,
but cannot categorically confirm accuracy of future
projections.
The applications of metallurgical test work results and
conclusions to the process design, recoveries and throughput
depend on the accuracy of the test work and assumption that
the sample tests are representative of the ore body as a whole.
There is a risk associated with the scale-up of laboratory and
pilot plant results to a commercial scale and with the
subsequent design and construction of any plant.
Mine development Possible future development of a mining operation at any of
the Company’s projects is dependent on a number of factors
including, but not limited to, the acquisition and/or delineation
of economically recoverable mineralisation, favourable
geological conditions, receiving the necessary approvals from
all relevant authorities and parties, seasonal weather patterns,
unanticipated
technical
and
operational
difficulties
encountered
in
extraction
and
production
activities,
mechanical failure of operating plant and equipment,
shortages or increases in the price of consumables, spare parts
and plant and equipment, cost overruns, access to the
required level of funding and contracting risk from third parties
providing essential services.
If the Company commences production, its operations may be
disrupted by a variety of risks and hazards which are beyond its
control, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents,
technical failures, labour disputes, unusual or unexpected rock
formations, flooding and extended interruptions due to
inclement of hazardous weather conditions and fires,
explosions or accidents. No assurance can be given that the
Company will achieve commercial viability through the
development or mining of its projects.
The risks associated with the development of a mine will be
considered in full should the Company’s projects reach that
stage and will be managed with ongoing consideration of
stakeholder interests.
Rights of Indigenous
and First Nations
Peoples
There may be areas within the Company’s current or future
projects over which certain first nations and indigenous
people’s rights exist. If rights do exist, the ability of the Company
to gain access to its tenements (through obtaining consent of
any relevant landowner) or to progress from the exploration
phase to the development and mining phases of operations
may be adversely affected.
The Directors will closely monitor the potential effect of native
and heritage/cultural matters involving projects in which the
Company has or may have an interest.

16

5626-03/3868755_6

Grant of future
authorisations to
explore and mine
If the Company discovers an economically viable mineral
deposit that it then intends to develop, it will, among other
things, require various approvals, licences and permits before
it will be able to mine the deposit. There is no guarantee that
the Company will be able to obtain all required approvals,
licenses and permits. To the extent that required authorisations
are not obtained or are delayed, the Company’s operational
and financial performance may be materially adversely
affected.
Resource estimation The Company has identified a number of areas of interest
within
the
Company
projects
based
on
geological
interpretations, limited geophysical data and geochemical
sampling.
Whilst
the
Company
intends
to
undertake
exploration activities with the aim of defining a Mineral
Resource, no assurance can be given that the exploration will
result in the determination of a Mineral Resource. Even if a
Mineral Resource is identified, no assurance can be provided
that the resource can be economically extracted. The
calculation and interpretation of resource and reserve
estimates are by their nature expressions of judgment based on
knowledge, experience and industry practice. Mineral
Resource and Ore Reserve estimates which were valid when
originally calculated may alter significantly through additional
fieldwork or when new information or techniques become
available. This may result in alterations to development and
mining plans, which may in turn adversely affect the
Company’s operations.
Minerals and
Currency Volatility
The Company’s ability to proceed with the development of its
Company projects and benefit from any future mining
operations will depend on market factors, some of which may
be beyond its control. It is anticipated that any revenues
derived from mining will primarily be derived from the sale of
lithium. Consequently, any future earnings are likely to be
closely related to the price of lithium and the terms of any off-
take agreements that the Company enters into.
The world market for minerals is subject to many variables and
may fluctuate markedly. These variables include world
demand for lithium that may be mined commercially in the
future from the Company’s project areas, forward selling by
producers and production cost levels in major mineral-
producing regions. Mineral prices are also affected by
macroeconomic factors such as general global economic
conditions and expectations regarding inflation and interest
rates. These factors may have an adverse effect on the
Company’s
exploration,
development,
and
production
activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.
Minerals are principally sold throughout the world in United
States dollars. The Company’s cost base will be payable in
various currencies including Australian dollars and United
States dollars. As a result, any significant and/or sustained
fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Australian dollar
and the U.S. dollar could materially adversely effect the
Company’s operations, financial position (including revenue
and profitability) and performance. The Company may
undertake measures, where deemed necessary by the Board,
to mitigate such risks.

17

5626-03/3868755_6

Licences, Permits and
Approvals
Many of the mineral rights and interests held or to be held by
the Company are subject to a requirement for ongoing or new
government
approvals,
licences
and
permits.
These
requirements, including work permits and environmental
approvals, will change as the Company’s operations develop.
Delays in obtaining, or the inability to obtain, required
authorisations may significantly impact on the Company’s
operations.
Safety Safety is a fundamental risk for any company, particularly those
that operate in the resources industry, in relation to personal
injury, damage to property and equipment and other losses.
The occurrence of any of these risks could result in legal
proceedings against the Company and/or key personnel and
substantial losses to the Company due to injury or loss of life,
damage or destruction of property, regulatory investigation
and penalties or suspension of operations. Damage occurring
to third parties because of such risks may give rise to claims
against the Company.
General risks
RISK CATEGORY RISK
Economic General economic conditions, movements in interest and
inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an
adverse effect on the Company’s exploration, development
and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those
activities.
Market conditions Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s
quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating
performance. Share market conditions are affected by many
factors such as:
(a)
general economic outlook;
(b)
introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;
(c)
interest rates and inflation rates;
(d)
changes in investor sentiment toward particular market
sectors;
(e)
the demand for, and supply of, capital; and
(f)
terrorism or other hostilities.
The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be
subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for
equities in general and resource exploration stocks in particular.
Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future
performance of the Company or any return on an investment in
the Company.
Litigation risks The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks including
intellectual property claims, contractual disputes, occupational
health and safety claims and employee claims. Further, the
Company may be involved in disputes with other parties in the
future which may result in litigation. Any such claim or dispute if
proven, may impact adversely on the Company’s operations,
financial performance and financial position. The Company is
not currently engaged in any litigation.

5.3 General risks

18

5626-03/3868755_6

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Dividends Any future determination as to the payment of dividends by the
Company will be at the discretion of the Directors and will
depend on the financial condition of the Company, future
capital requirements and general business and other factors
considered relevant by the Directors. No assurance in relation to
the payment of dividends or franking credits attaching to
dividends can be given by the Company.
Taxation The
acquisition
and
disposal
of
Shares
will
have
tax
consequences, which will differ depending on the individual
financial affairs of each investor. All prospective investors in the
Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice
about the consequences of acquiring Shares from a taxation
viewpoint and generally.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its
officers and each of their respective advisors accept no liability
and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of
subscribing for Securities under this Prospectus.
Reliance on key
personnel
The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and
the
strategic
management
of
the
Company
depends
substantially on its senior management and its key personnel.
There can be no assurance given that there will be no
detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these
employees cease their employment.
Economic conditions
and other global or
national issues
General economic conditions, laws relating to taxation, new
legislation, trade barriers, movements in interest and inflation
rates, currency exchange controls and rates, national and
international political circumstances (including outbreaks in
international hostilities, wars, terrorist acts, sabotage, subversive
activities, security operations, labour unrest, civil disorder, and
states
of
emergency),
natural
disasters
(including
fires,
earthquakes and floods), and quarantine restrictions, epidemics
and pandemics, may have an adverse effect on the Company’s
operations and financial performance, including the Company’s
exploration, development and production activities, as well as
on its ability to fund those activities.
General economic conditions may also affect the value of the
Company and its market valuation regardless of its actual
performance.

Remuneration

The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process. The total maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is initially set by the Constitution and subsequent variation is by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of non-executive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director. The current amount has been set at an amount not to exceed $500,000 per annum.

A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (ie non-cash performance incentives such as Options, subject to any necessary Shareholder approval) as the other Directors determine where a Director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director. In addition, Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.

The following table shows the total annual remuneration paid to both executive and nonexecutive Directors as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report for the financial year ended 31 December 2024 and proposed annual remuneration for the financial year ending 31 December 2025.
