BY ORDER OF THE BOARD

John Lester DIRECTOR CLASSIC MINERALS LIMITED

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

1. Introduction

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of the Shareholders in connection with the business to be conducted at the 2024 Annual General Meeting ( Reconvened ) of Classic Minerals Limited to be held at the Conference Room, Level 1, 162 Grand Boulevard, JOONDALUP WA 6027 at 11.00am WST on Friday, 01 August 2025.

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement 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 (of which this Explanatory Statement forms a part).

2. Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report (non-binding resolution)

In accordance with Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, the Company must put a resolution to Shareholders that the remuneration report be adopted at the Annual General Meeting. The vote on Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

Pursuant to section 250R of the Corporations Act, the Company is required to put the Remuneration Report to a vote of Shareholders. The Annual Report contains the Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and reports the remuneration arrangements in place for the Directors, the Managing Director and other Key Management Personnel.

The Annual Report is available on the Company's website at www.classicminerals.com.au .

The Corporations Act provides that Resolution 1 need only be an advisory vote of Shareholders. However, in addition, the Corporations Act now provides that if the Company’s remuneration report resolution receives a “no” vote of 25% or more of votes cast at the Meeting, the Company’s subsequent remuneration report must explain the Board’s proposed action in response or, if the Board does not propose any action, the Board’s reasons for not making any changes. The Board will take into account the outcome of the vote when considering the remuneration policy, even if it receives less than a 25% “no” vote.

In addition, the Corporations Act now sets out a ‘two strikes’ re-election process. Under the ‘two strikes’ re-election process, if the Company’s remuneration report receives a ‘no’ vote of 25% or more of all votes cast at two consecutive annual general meetings (that is, ‘two strikes’), a resolution (the ‘spill resolution’) must be put to the second annual general meeting, requiring Shareholders to vote on whether the Company must hold another general meeting (known as the ‘spill meeting’) to consider the appointment of all of the Directors who stand for re-appointment (other than the Managing Director). If the spill resolution is approved by a simple majority of 50% or more of the eligible votes cast, the ‘spill meeting’ must be held within 90 days of that second annual general meeting (unless none of the Directors, other than the Managing Director, stand for re-appointment).

Further information will be provided on the ‘spill resolution’ and ‘spill meeting’ for any annual general meeting at which the Company may face a ‘second strike’.

A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting.

3. Resolutions 2 to 5 – Ratification of Prior Issues of Securities

3.1 Background

During the period 29 November 2024 to 20 June 2025, the Company issued 226,757,400 Shares without disclosure to investors and/or creditors under the exceptions provided in section 708 of the Corporations Act. The investors and/or creditors were not related parties of the Company.

Page | 8

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The Company had sufficient placement capacity under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A for all the issues of Shares.

3.2 Corporations Act

None of the allottees the subject of Resolutions 2 to 5 in conjunction with any of their associates, hold, either before, during, or after any of the issues the subject of Resolutions 2 to 5, more than 20% of the issued capital of the Company.

3.3 Listing Rule 7.4

Resolutions 2 to 5 seek Shareholder ratification of issues of Shares pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4. The Shares issued are Equity Securities for the purposes of the Listing Rules. Resolutions 3 to 5 pertain to ratification of Shares issued under Listing Rule 7.1 (15% capacity) and Resolution 2 pertains to ratification of Shares issued under Listing Rule 7.1A (10% capacity).

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A in combination limit the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12-month period to 25% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period. The issues of Shares to investors and creditors referred to above do not fit within any of these exceptions and, as those issues have not yet been approved by shareholders, they effectively use up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 and 10% limit in Listing Rule 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 dates of the issues of Shares.

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 or 7.1A (as applicable) and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without shareholder approval under those rules.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain prior shareholder approval for such issues. To this end, Resolutions 2 to 5 seek Shareholder approval for the issues of Shares to investors and creditors under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

If each of Resolutions 2 to 5 is passed, the issues of Shares to investors and creditors will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12month period following the issues of Shares to investors and creditors.

If any of Resolutions 2 to 5 is not passed, the Shares issued in respect of that Resolution will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 or 10% limit in Listing Rule 7.1A (as applicable), effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of that issue of Shares.

For clarification the table below delineates the relevant Listing Rule under which the securities were issued.

Issued under L.R. 7.1 OR
Resolution Number of securities
7.1A Capacity
2. L.R. 7.1A 125,000,000 Shares
3. L.R. 7.1 22,448,080 Shares
4. L.R. 7.1 54,309,320 Shares
5. L.R. 7.1 25,000,000 Shares

Relevant information for the purposes of the Listing Rules is provided at Section 3.4 below.

3.5 Voting Exclusion Statement

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

4. Resolution 6 – Approval to issue Shares to LDA Capital

4.1 Background[1]

On 15 December 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement with LDA Capital, pursuant to which the Company secured the right to require LDA Capital to subscribe for up $15 million in new Shares by way of the Company exercising put options ( Put Option Agreement ). A summary of the material terms of the Put Option Agreement were included in the announcement.

The Put Option Agreement provides the Company with the flexibility to issue Shares to LDA Capital over the next three years at the Company’s discretion and to receive funds for the issue of those Shares.

Since 15 December 2022, the Company has made various calls on LDA Capital. At present LDA Capital is holding on account, 1,149,200 shares.

On 7[th] March 2025, the shareholders approved an issue of up to 500,000,000 shares to LDA Capital under the Put Option Agreement. The Company confirms that as the shares of the Company were not trading, the Company did not make any issues to LDA Capital. The approval, which was for a period not exceeding 3 months, expired on 7[th] June 2025 without any shares being issued.

The Company may seek to make further calls under the Put Option Agreement over the 3 months period following the Meeting to fund exploration expenses for its exploration activities and upgrade the processing plant. However, the Company will only do so once suspension in trading of its Shares has been lifted for more than 10 trading days, being a condition of issuing a put option notice, unless LDA Capital consents to waive this requirement.

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of up to 1,000,000,000 Shares to LDA Capital ( LDA Shares ) to provide funding for development of the Company’s exploration activities. The LDA Shares to be approved are for further Shares to be issued to LDA Capital under future anticipated call notices.

4.2 Requirement for shareholder approval

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. The issue of the LDA Shares does not fit within any of these exceptions.

Whilst some of the LDA Shares could be issued using the Company’s 15% capacity, the Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. To do this, the Company is asking Shareholders to approve the issue of all the LDA Shares under Listing Rule 7.1 so that it does not use up any of the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 6 is passed, the issue of the LDA Shares can proceed without using up any of the Company’s 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without shareholder approval set out in listing rule 7.1.

If Resolution 6 is not passed, the Company will not issue the LDA Shares and will explore

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

alternative sources of funding.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 6.

4.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3 for the approval of issue of LDA Shares

Pursuant to Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in respect of Resolution 6:

  • (a) The LDA Shares will be issued to LDA Capital (or its nominee).

  • (b) The maximum number of LDA Shares to be issued is 1,000,000,000.

  • (d) The LDA Shares will be issued on a date which will be not more than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules).

  • (e) The amount of funds that will be received on issue of the LDA Shares will be dependent on the issue price, being 90% of the 30-day VWAP of shares as at the date immediately prior to the Company issuing the LDA Shares ( Issue Price ). As examples:

Issue Price Amount raised
$0.001 $1,000,000
$0.0009 $900,000
$0.0008 $800,000
  • (f) The purpose of the issue is to raise working capital for the Kat Gap gold project[2] .

  • (i) all Shares the subject of previous approvals are issued (if any); and

  • (ii) no other Shares are issued to 3[rd] parties; and

5. Resolution 7: Approval to issue Shares to Trade Creditors

5.1 Background

The Company is currently in negotiations with various non-related party trade creditors ( Trade Creditors ) regarding a proposal to pay up to $1,000,000 in general trade debts owed by the Company ( Trade Debts ) through the issue of new Shares to the Trade Creditors (or their respective nominees). However, the Company has NOT yet formalised any agreements with Trade Creditors in this regard.

5.2 Resolution

Resolution 7 is an ordinary resolution to approve the issue of new Shares to the Trade Creditors (or their respective nominees) to settle Trade Debts owed by the Company to those Trade Creditors, for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1.

5.3 Listing Rules requirements

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 and the exceptions in Listing Rule 7.2 are set out in Section Error! Reference source not found. , above.

The issue of the new Shares under Resolution 7 does not fall within any of these exceptions and could potentially exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 7 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue and settle the corresponding value of Trade Debts. In addition, the new Shares 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.

Page | 13

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

If Resolution 7 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue and will be required to repay the Trade Debts from its cash reserves.

5.4 Listing Rule information requirements

The following information is provided in relation to Resolution 7, as required by Listing Rule 7.3:

Information required Details
Names of persons to
whom the Company
will issue securities or
the basis upon which
those persons were or
will be identified or
selected
The Shares will be issued to those Trade Creditors (being general
trade creditors of the Company) owed a Trade Debt by the
Company of $10,000 or more who agree to accept repayment of
their Trade Debt (partially or wholly) through the issue of new
Shares and who:

are not ‘related parties’ of the Company for the purpose of the
Listing Rules; and

do not hold or control more than 5% of the Shares on issue, and
will not obtain such a holding as a result of receiving new
Shares under the Resolution.
Number and class of
securities the Company
will issue
The Company intends to issue Shares up to an aggregate value of
$1,000,000.
The exact number of Shares to be issued will be calculated using
the following formula:
A = B / C
where:
Ais the number of new Shares to be issued;
Bis the Trade Debt to be repaid through the issue of new Shares;
and
Cis the issue price of new Shares (see below).
There is no minimum (or ‘floor’) price at which the new Shares may
be issued. Accordingly, there is a risk of material dilution to existing
Shareholders.
However, trading in the Company’s Shares on ASX is currently
suspended. Further, the last trading price prior to suspension was
$0.001, representing the minimum trading price step permitted by
ASX.
Accordingly, the maximum number of new Shares that may be
issued is 1,250,000,000. Applying the minimum trading price of
$0.001, which would in turn result in an issue price of $0.008 per new
