The entitlement offer follows the approval by the Board to proceed with a scoping study on the Company’s Oracle Ridge Copper Project.

Prospectus

Question Response Where to find
more
information
How will the
Shortfall be
allocated?
Any Shortfall will be allocated at the discretion of the Directors
having regard to the following principles:

the Shortfall will be allocated between both new
investors and Eligible Shareholders having regard to
the best interests of the Company and to maximise the
funds raised from the Entitlement and Shortfall Offers,
but not in a manner likely to exacerbate a potential
unacceptable control effect on the Company;

the Shortfall will be allocated to Applicants in
preference to any allocation to the Underwriter (or an
Associate of the Underwriter);

Eligible Shareholders’ Applications for Shortfall may be
scaled back in proportion to their respective
shareholdings in the Company at the Record Date;

Related Parties of the Company will not be allocated
Shortfall; and

an Application will be scaled back to the extent
required to prevent any person (whether the Applicant
or not) contravening the takeovers restrictions in
section 606 of the Corporations Act (i.e. acquiring a
controlling interest in 20% or more of the Shares on
issue).
If any Shortfall remains after completion of the Offers, the
Company may place the residual Shortfall with any professional
or sophisticated investors residing in Australia, including any
Related Parties of the Company (subject to obtaining
Shareholder approval) within 3 months following the Closing
Date.
Section 3.2(b)
Are the
Entitlement and
Shortfall Offers
subject to any
conditions?
Yes, the Entitlement and Shortfall Offers are both conditional
upon ASX granting official quotation to the New Shares within
3 months of the Prospectus Date.
If any New Shares are not admitted to quotation within this
timeframe, New Shares will not be issued under this
Prospectus.
Sections 3.4
and 3.5
What are the
primary effects
on the Company?
Capital structure and dilution
The Company has 304,966,863 Shares on issue at the
Prospectus Date.
The Company will issue up to 76,241,715 New Shares and up to
76,241,715 New Options under the Entitlement and Shortfall
Offers (including pursuant to the underwriting arrangements).
If all Eligible Shareholders subscribe for their Entitlements in
full, the Entitlement and Shortfall Offers would not have a
material effect on control of the Company as each Eligible
Shareholder’s
percentage
shareholding
should
remain
substantially the same as at the Record Date.
However,if Eligible Shareholders do not take uptheir full

Question Response Where to find

information
Entitlements, their percentage shareholding in the Company
may be diluted by up to 20% from the position at the Prospectus
Date.
Financial position
The Company will raise up to $4,574,502 before costs under the
Entitlement and Shortfall Offers (including pursuant to the
underwriting arrangements).
Rights issue takeovers exception
The ‘rights issue’ exception to the takeovers restrictions in item
10 of section 611 of the Corporations Act doesnotapply to the
Entitlement Offer. Accordingly, Eligible Shareholders will only
be permitted to take up their Entitlements to the extent their
‘voting power’ (for the purposes of the Corporations Act) does
not exceed 20%.
Control
The effect of the Entitlement and Shortfall Offers on the control
of the Company will vary depending upon the level of
Entitlements taken up by Eligible Shareholders under the
Entitlement Offer, and the number of New Shares for which the
Underwriter is required to subscribe.
At the Prospectus Date, the Underwriter’s Associates, Silver
Mountain, Metech and Quartz, control a shareholding of
27.70%.
The Underwriter’s Associates have informed the Company that
they do not intend to take up their Entitlements. Accordingly,
in the unlikely scenario that none of the Eligible Shareholders
take up their Entitlements, the Underwriter could acquire its
full Underwriting Commitment (being 20,833,333 New Shares)
and obtain a Relevant Interest in 32.32% of the total Shares on
issue post-Offers.
However, the Underwriting Commitment will be reduced to the
extent of any Application made by any Associate of the
Underwriter.
Investment Risks
What are the key
risks of investing
in the Company?
The following are non-exhaustive summaries of some of the key
risks associated with applying under the Offers and investing in
the Company. Any such risks eventuating could have (among
other things) a material adverse effect on the operations,
financial position and/or reputation of the Company.
Reliance on key personnel
The Company’s success depends to a significant extent upon its
key management personnel, as well as other employees and
technical personnel including sub-contractors. The Company
has a small management team. The loss of the services of the
Company’s key personnel could have an adverse effect on the
Company at this early stage of development, particularly as
finding an effective replacement may be difficult.

Since the Company intends to conduct further exploration
activities on the Oracle Ridge and Silver Mountain Projects, the
Directors anticipate the Company making further losses in the
foreseeable future.
Tenure risks
The Company will follow the mandated processes under the
relevant Arizona and United States legislation to ensure
continuity of its mining tenure and planned activities. However,
the Company could lose title to, or its interest in, its current
mining claims (or any additional mining claims, permits or other
interests acquired by the Company in the future) if the
conditions attaching to the claim or permit are not satisfied or
if the permits are not renewed.
Access to part of the Company’s Oracle Ridge Copper Project is
subject to an industrial property lease agreement with Marble
Mountain Ventures LLC (MMV). The lease agreement provides
surface access rights over patented claims which covers areas
including the current mineral resource, the existing 5900 and
6400 mine portals, and the historic mill site. The term of the
lease automatically renews every three years until expiration of
the term on 31 January 2040.
A reversionary interest in the relevant mineral rights is held by
MMV over the relevant patented claims. The reversion is set to
occur on 18 February 2025, unless an extension option is
exercised by the Company and an extension payment in the
order of US$3 million adjusted for CPI is remitted to MMV
(Extension Option).
On exercise of the Extension Option, the Company’s interest in
the mineral rights related to the relevant patented claims will
be extended to 18 February 2040. Should the Company be
unable to raise sufficient capital or renegotiate the terms of the
reversionary interest, the mineral rights relating to the relevant
patented claims will revert to MMV.

Question Response Where to find
more
information
Future capital requirements
The Company’s ongoing activities including repayment of its
secured debt and the exercise or renegotiation of the Extension
Option are likely to require substantial further financing in the
future, in addition to amounts raised pursuant to the Offers.
Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to Shareholders,
may be undertaken at lower prices than the price of Shares
offered under the Offers or may involve restrictive covenants
which may limit the Company’s operations and business
strategy.
Exploration, geological and development risks
Mineral exploration and development is a speculative and high
risk activity that requires large amounts of expenditure over
extended periods of time and may be impeded by
circumstances and factors beyond the Company’s control.
Operational and technical risks
The operations of the Company may be affected by various
factors, including but not limited to failure to locate or identify
mineral deposits, failure to achieve predicted grades in
exploration and mining, operational and technical difficulties
encountered in mining, mechanical failure or plant breakdown,
unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect
extraction costs, adverse weather conditions and unexpected
shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts,
plant and equipment.
Commodity price fluctuations
The Company’s potential earnings will be largely derived from
the sale of mineral commodities (including copper, gold and
silver). Accordingly, the Company’s future revenues and cash
flow will be impacted by fluctuations in the price and available
markets of these commodities.

2. Company and Business Matters

2.1 Overview of activities

The Company is an Australian public company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange ( ASX ). The Company owns tenements comprising two copper projects in Arizona, USA, the Oracle Ridge Copper Project and the Silver Mountain Project ( Projects ).

(a) Oracle Ridge Copper Project

The Oracle Ridge Copper Project is located northeast of Tucson and 26 kilometres from BHP’s San Manuel mine, once the largest underground mine in the USA. The site is accessible by road and is supported by a nearby railway and a copper smelter in the state.

The Oracle Ridge Project is an advanced stage project containing a copper resource with gold and silver credits. Mineralisation at Oracle Ridge is skarn-hosted which is common at many porphyry deposits in Arizona. The source of the mineralisation at Oracle Ridge has not been found and it remains a key exploration opportunity.

The project benefits from 18 kilometres of existing underground development, recently refurbished, along with other supporting infrastructure such as roads, mining services and power at nearby towns.

The Company has undertaken various aspects of exploration at the Copper Ridge Project over the past years, including drilling from surface and underground, along with channel sampling of exposed mineralisation from existing tunnels. The mineral resource estimate ( MRE ) for the project has recently been upgraded with a 27% increase in contained copper at a 1% cut-off compared to the previous MRE.

The Company has recently undertaken a range of metallurgy and comminution testwork at Oracle Ridge. While the production of a bulk concentrate remains an option for the project via a conventional process route, a simplified process has been identified that avoids smelting and refining beyond the mine gate. The benefits of the simplified process relative to the production of a bulk concentrate include the potential for:

  • lower capital and operating costs;

  • avoidance of downstream transport and processing (smelting and refining) costs;

  • reduction of environmental impact from avoiding smelting processes;

  • security of supply of copper, a critical material, for US domestic consumption;

  • local jobs and broader social benefits; and

  • increased credentials for securing various US Government funding tied to critical materials production.

(b)

Silver Mountain Project

The Silver Mountain copper/gold project is located in Arizona to the northwest of Phoenix. The project area sits on the Laramide Arc, a northwest-southeast trending geological feature containing world-class porphyry copper mines such as Bagdad, Miami and Resolution. It also lies on the southern extension of a northeast-southwest prospective metallogenic belt that hosts United Verde and Iron King, two historical mines of volcanogenic massive sulphide affinity. The intersection of these two trends results in a favourable geologic setting with high complexity and potential for multiple mineralisation styles. The northern portion of the project area has a history of prospecting and mining of high-grade copper from the 1890s into the 1920s. Except for limited campaigns in the 1960s, 1970s and early 1990s, there had been no modern exploration at the Silver Mountain Project. Commencing in 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries have been the first companies to complete modern exploration over the Silver Mountain Project area.

The Company views the Silver Mountain Project as a very prospective project supported by multiple favourable geological signatures. Further field mapping is planned with the aim of defining the potential source of mineralisation outcropping at the surface.

Further information about the Projects is contained in the Company’s announcements and reports released to ASX, which are available on the Company’s website at https://eaglemountain.com.au/investor-centre/.

The information in this Section 2.1 referring to exploration results and mineral resources in respect of the Oracle Ridge Copper Project is taken from:

3. Details of the Offers

3.1 Entitlement Offer

(a) Offer

The Entitlement Offer is a pro rata offer of New Shares and attaching New Options to Eligible Shareholders.

Eligible Shareholders will be entitled to apply for 1 New Share for every 4 Shares held at 5:00pm (WST) on the Record Date, together with 1 attaching New Option for every 1 New Share subscribed for, at an issue price of $0.06 per New Share ( Offer Price ). The Offer Price is payable in full on application.

Each attaching New Option is exercisable at an exercise price of $0.20 on or before 31 March 2027 and is to be issued on the terms set out in Section 7.2.

Based on the number of Shares expected to be on issue on the Record Date, a total of up to approximately 76,241,715 New Shares and 76,241,715 New Options will be offered under the Entitlement Offer, raising up to approximately $4.5 million before costs.

Information about how Eligible Shareholders may accept Entitlements and apply for the New Securities is set out in Section 4.

(b)

Proposed use of funds

The Company intends to apply the funds raised under the Entitlement Offer as set out below.

  • The Company plans to undertake a scoping study to assess the technical and financial development for Oracle Ridge ( Scoping Study ).

It is proposed that the Scoping Study will be based on underground mining of portions of the new mineral resource estimate ( MRE ) totalling 28.2Mt at 1.35% copper, 11.06g/t silver and 0.16g/t gold (refer Table 1 set out in Section 2.1(a) and ASX announcement of 21 November 2023). The study will also consider a simplified processing flowsheet that avoids smelting and refining beyond the mine gate.

The outcome of the Scoping Study is expected to form the basis for a preliminary feasibility study for the Oracle Ridge Project and support various work plans necessary to bring Oracle Ridge into production. The Scoping Study will be undertaken by various reputable consultants, in addition to Company personnel, and is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2024.

• The Company plans to undertake field exploration activities at both the Oracle Ridge and Silver Mountain Projects. The field exploration activities will assist mapping of key structural features, identification of alteration zones and outcropping mineralisation which may assist future geophysical or drill targeting.

In addition, the use of an ambient noise tomography survey at Oracle Ridge is being investigated. The aim is to image unidentified porphyry(s) at depth, deep faults acting as important feeder systems, as well as main lithological contacts between the Leatherwood intrusive and prospective sediments/older formations. This information will assist targeting of future drilling programs with the aim to build and upgrade existing resources, along with the discovery of new mineralisation.

The Company will also apply funds raised from the Offers towards the costs of the Offers and general working capital purposes.

(j)

Excluded Shareholders

The Entitlement Offer is not made to Shareholders who on the Record Date have a registered address outside Australia, New Zealand or the United Kingdom (i.e. Excluded Shareholders).

Neither the Prospectus nor the Entitlement and Acceptance Form constitutes an offer or invitation in any place in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or invitation.

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

14

Prospectus

In making the decision to not extend the Offers to Excluded Shareholders, the Company has taken into account:

  • the small number Shareholders outside Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom;

  • • the number and value of New Shares that would be offered to Shareholders outside Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom; and

  • the cost of complying with the legal requirements and requirements of regulatory authorities in the overseas jurisdictions.

The Entitlement Offer is made to all Eligible Shareholders. The Company is not required to determine whether or not any registered Eligible Shareholder holds Shares on behalf of persons who are resident outside Australia or New Zealand (including nominees, custodians and trustees) or the identity or residence of any beneficial owners of Shares.

Any Eligible Shareholders who hold Shares on behalf of persons who are resident outside Australia and New Zealand are responsible for ensuring that any dealing with New Securities issued under the Entitlement Offer do not breach the laws and regulations in the relevant overseas jurisdiction, and should seek independent professional advice and observe any applicable restrictions relating to the taking up of Entitlement or the distribution of this Prospectus or the Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

The distribution of this Prospectus and accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form (including electronic copies) outside Australia or New Zealand may be restricted by law and therefore persons who come into possession of this Prospectus should seek advice on and observe any such restrictions. Any failure to comply with such restrictions may constitute a violation of applicable securities laws.

(k) Sale nominee for Excluded Shareholders

For the purpose of Listing Rule 7.7.1(c), the Company has appointed Canaccord Genuity (Australia) Limited ( Sale Nominee ) as nominee to sell the Entitlements which would be offered to Excluded Shareholders if they were Eligible Shareholders and to account to the Excluded Shareholders a portion of the sale proceeds net of expenses. The Sale Nominee will be paid a base fixed fee by the Company in respect of its role as nominee and will receive a commission of 1% (excluding GST) of gross proceeds raised through the sale of Entitlements. Pursuant to this arrangement, the Sale Nominee will, during the Entitlement Trading Period, offer the Entitlements for sale on the market conducted by the ASX as soon as is reasonably practicable following their allotment.

The net proceeds of the sale, after deducting all reasonable costs associated with the sale, will be provided to the Company for the benefit of the Excluded Shareholders. The net proceeds of the sale of these Entitlements will then be forwarded by the Company as soon as practicable to the Excluded Shareholders, on a pro rata basis, in Australian currency (after deducting brokerage, commission and other expenses). If any such net proceeds of the sale are less than the reasonable costs that would be incurred by the Company for distributing those proceeds, such proceeds may be retained by the Company. Notwithstanding that the Sale Nominee will use its endeavours to sell Excluded Shareholders’ Entitlements, Excluded Shareholders may nevertheless receive no net proceeds if the costs of the sale are greater than the sale proceeds. In addition, there is no guarantee the Sale Nominee will be able to sell Excluded Shareholders' Entitlements.

3.2 Shortfall Offer

(a) Offer

Any New Shares and attaching New Options not subscribed for under the Entitlement Offer will form the Shortfall and will be offered under the Shortfall Offer.

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

15

Prospectus

The Shortfall Offer is a separate offer under this Prospectus. The issue price of the New Shares under the Shortfall Offer is $0.06 (i.e. the Offer Price). Each attaching New Option is exercisable at $0.20 on or before 31 March 2027 and is to be issued on the terms set out in Section 7.2.

The funds raised under the Shortfall Offer will be applied towards the same uses as the Entitlement Offer (see Section 3.1(b)).

A person (including an Eligible Shareholder) may apply for New Securities under the Shortfall Offer provided they are eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Shortfall Offer.

The Company cannot guarantee that an Applicant will receive the number of New Shares and New Options for which they apply. If an Applicant does not receive any or all of the New Securities applied for, the excess Application Moneys will be returned without interest.

(b) Allocation and scale-back policy

The Directors will have discretion as to how to allocate the Shortfall to Applicants.

In exercising their discretion to allocate the Shortfall:

  • the Directors will allocate all of the Shortfall to Applicants in preference to any allocation to the Underwriter or an Associate of the Underwriter;

  • the Directors propose to allocate the Shortfall to both new investors and Eligible Shareholders in a manner considered appropriate to Applicants having regard to the best interests of the Company and the Company’s desire to maximise the amount of funds raised from the Offers, but not likely to exacerbate a potential unacceptable control effect on the Company;

  • Eligible Shareholders are encouraged to apply for the Shortfall but in allocating the Shortfall, preference will not necessarily be conferred on Eligible Shareholders;

  • where the Directors consider it is in the best interests of the Company to allocate any portion of the Shortfall to a particular Applicant or to particular Applicants in order to maximise the total funds raised from the Offers, the Directors may do so, provided it is not likely to exacerbate a potential unacceptable control effect on the Company; this may result in preference being given to an Application from a new investor who is not an Eligible Shareholder;

  • subject to the above, to the extent that Applications for the Shortfall are made by Eligible Shareholders, as between those Eligible Shareholders the Directors will generally endeavour to allocate the Shortfall in proportion to those Eligible Shareholders’ respective shareholdings in the Company at the Record Date;

  • the Directors will not allocate any portion of the Shortfall to an Applicant who is a Related Party; and

  • the Directors will not allocate New Shares under the Shortfall Offer to the extent that it would result in any person (whether or not the Applicant) contravening the takeovers restrictions in section 606 of the Corporations Act.

(c) Residual placement of Shortfall

If any Shortfall remains after completion of the Offers, the Company reserves the right to place the residual Shortfall with any professional or sophisticated investors residing in Australia at the same price as the Entitlement Offer ($0.06 per New Share), at the discretion of the Board, for a period of up to 3 months following the Closing Date.

If you wish to transfer all or a proportion of your Entitlement to or from another person on the CHESS sub-register, you must engage your CHESS controlling participant (usually your stockbroker). If the transferee wants to exercise some or all of the Entitlement, you should follow your stockbroker’s instructions as to the most appropriate way to take up the Entitlement on their behalf. If you purchase entitlements on market, you can access the Standard Acceptance Form – Rights (Appendix E) at www.computersharecas.com.au/em2 to pay to accept those entitlements.

If the Company receives both a completed renunciation form and a completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form in respect of the same Entitlement, the renunciation will be given effect in priority.

(f) Accept part of your Entitlement and sell the balance on ASX

If you wish to accept part of your Entitlement in full and sell the balance of your Entitlement on ASX, you must:

  • make a payment through the BPAY® facility for the number of New Securities for which you which to apply (i.e. multiply the number of New Shares by the Offer Price of $0.06) in accordance with the instructions on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form; and

  • instruct your stockbroker to sell the balance of your Entitlement on ASX – see Section 4.1(d) for further details.

Your BPAY® payment must be received by no later than 5:00pm (WST) on the Closing Date.

(g) Accept part of your Entitlement and allow the balance to lapse

Prospectus

which you which to apply (i.e. multiply the number of New Shares by the Offer Price of $0.06) in accordance with the instructions on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

If you do not accept all of your Entitlement, then the balance of your Entitlement will lapse and the New Securities that are not subscribed for will form part of the Shortfall.

(h) Allowing your Entitlement to lapse in full

If you do not wish to accept any of your Entitlement, you are not required to take any action. If you do nothing, then your Entitlement will lapse. The New Securities not subscribed for will form part of the Shortfall.

If you do not take up all of your Entitlement in full, your percentage shareholding in the Company will reduce.

(i) Payment by BPAY®

Payment by BPAY® should be made according to the instructions set out on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form using the BPAY® Biller Code and Customer Reference Number shown on the form. You can only make a payment via BPAY® if you are a holder of an account with an Australian financial institution that supports BPAY® transactions.

The reference number shown on each Entitlement and Acceptance Form ( Reference Number ) is used to identify your holding. If you have multiple holdings you will have multiple Reference Numbers. You must use the Reference Number to pay for each holding separately. Failure to do so may result in an underpayment. If you pay by BPAY® and do not pay for your full Entitlement, the remaining Entitlement will form part of the Shortfall.

If you pay by BPAY®:

  • you do not need to return the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to have made the declarations on that form; and

  • if you do not pay for your Entitlement in full, you are deemed to have taken up your Entitlement in respect of such whole number of New Shares which is covered by your Application Moneys.

You must ensure that your payment by BPAY® is received by 5:00pm (WST) on the Closing Date. Your financial institution may implement cut-off times with regards to electronic payment and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment. The Company is not responsible for any delay in the receipt of BPAY®.

The Directors’ decision as to whether to treat such an Application as valid and how to construe, amend or complete the Application Form is final. However, an Applicant will not be treated as having applied for more New Shares than is indicated by the amount of Application Money.

If the exact Application Moneys applicable to an Application are not tendered with an Application Form, the Company reserves the right to either:

  • return the Application Form and refund the Application Moneys received (by cheque or Electronic Funds Transfer as soon as possible, without interest), and not issue any New Securities to the Applicant; or

  • issue to the Applicant the maximum number of New Securities represented by the Application Moneys received, and refund any excess amount to that Applicant by cheque or Electronic Funds Transfer as soon as possible, without interest.

The Company reserves the right to accept a lesser amount to the total number of New Securities applied for by an Applicant on the Application Form (including if the Entitlement or Shortfall Offers close oversubscribed), at the Directors’ absolute discretion.

Cooling-off rights do not apply to any of the Offers. An Application is unconditional once it is submitted and cannot be withdrawn by an Applicant.

4.7 Holding of Application Moneys

Application Moneys will be held on trust in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act until:

  • the New Securities to which the Application Money pertains are issued under the relevant Offer; or

  • a refund of Application Moneys occurs in the circumstances described in this Prospectus.

The trust account established by the Company for this purpose will be solely used for handling Application Moneys.

Any interest earned on Application Moneys will be for the benefit of, and will remain the sole property of, the Company, and will be retained by the Company whether or not the allotment and issue of New Securities takes place.

Applications and Application Moneys may not be withdrawn once they have been received by the Company.

4.8 ASX quotation

The Company will apply to ASX for quotation of the New Shares offered under this Prospectus, within 7 days after the Prospectus Date.

The fact that ASX may agree to grant quotation of the New Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or its Securities. If permission for quotation of New Shares is not granted by ASX within 3 months after the Prospectus Date, those New Shares will not be issued and Application Moneys for them will be refunded (without interest) as soon as practicable.

4.9 Issue of New Securities under Entitlement and Shortfall Offers

New Shares and New Options under the Entitlement and Shortfall Offers are expected to be issued and holding statements despatched as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and the timetable set out in the Key Information section on page 1. New Shares will not be issued until ASX grants permission for their quotation.

It is an Applicant’s responsibility to determine their holdings before trading in New Shares. Any person who sells New Shares before receiving confirmation of their holding will do so at their own risk.

4.10 CHESS and issuer sponsorship

The Company participates in the Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System ( CHESS ), operated by ASX Settlement (a wholly owned subsidiary of ASX), in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and ASX Settlement Rules. The Company operates an electronic issuer-sponsored sub-register and an electronic CHESS sub-register. The two sub-registers together make up the Company’s principal register of its Securities.

Under CHESS, the Company does not issue certificates to the holders of Securities. Instead, the Company provides holders with a Holding Statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of Securities allotted and issued to them.

This Holding Statement also advises investors of either their Holder Identification Number ( HIN ) in the case of a holding on the CHESS sub-register or Security Holder Reference Number ( SRN ) in the case of a holding on the issuer sponsored sub-register.

A statement is routinely sent to holders at the end of any calendar month during which their holding changes. A holder may request a statement at any other time; however, a charge may be incurred for additional statements.

4.11 Privacy disclosure

The Company will collect information about each Applicant from the Application Forms for the purpose of processing the Application and, if the Applicant is successful, for the purposes of administering the Applicant’s Security holding in the Company.

By submitting an Application Form, each Applicant agrees that the Company may use the information in the Application Form for the purposes set out in this privacy disclosure statement.

The Company and the Share Registry may disclose an Applicant’s personal information for purposes related to the Applicant’s investment to their agents and service providers including those listed below or as otherwise authorised under the Privacy Act:

  • the Share Registry for ongoing administration of the Company’s register;

  • the Company’s Related Bodies Corporate, agents, contractors and third party service providers, as well as to ASX, ASIC and other regulatory authorities (including the Australian Taxation Office); and

  • the printers and the mailing house for the purposes of preparing and distributing Holding Statements and for the handling of mail.

If an Applicant becomes a Security holder of the Company, the Corporations Act requires the Company to include information about the Security holder (name, address and details of the Securities held) in its public register. This information must remain in the Company’s register of Shareholders even if that person ceases to be a Security holder of the Company. Information contained in the Company’s register of Shareholders is also used to facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications (including the Company’s financial results, annual reports and other information that the Company may wish to communicate to its Security holders) and compliance by the Company with legal and regulatory requirements.

If an Applicant does not provide the information required on the Application Form, the Company may not be able to accept or process their Application.

An Applicant can request access to their personal information by writing to the Company through the Share Registry.

4.12 Withdrawal

5. Effect of the Offers

5.1 Effect on capital structure

The table below sets out the potential effect of the Offers on the Company’s capital structure. It assumes:

  • (a) 20,833,333 New Shares are issued under the Offers (being the New Shares comprising the Underwriting Commitment), representing approximately 27.33% of the Entitlement Offer; and

  • (b) 76,241,715 New Shares are issued under the Offers, being full (100%) subscription to the Offers.

  3. b. 2,500,000 unquoted Options exercisable at $0.52 on or before 22 February 2024; and

  4. c. 6,000,000 unquoted Options exercisable at $0.55 on or before 1 July 2024.

  5. The figures in the table above assume that new Shares, Options or Performance Rights are not issued prior to the close of the Offers.

5.2 Potential dilution from New Shares

As at the Prospectus Date, the Company has 304,966,863 Shares and 11,100,000 unquoted Options on issue.

The dilutive effect of the Entitlement and Shortfall Offers depend upon the level of Entitlements taken up by Eligible Shareholders under the Entitlement Offer.

If all Eligible Shareholders subscribe for their Entitlements in full, each Eligible Shareholder’s percentage shareholding should remain substantially the same as at the Record Date.

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

25

Prospectus

However, it is unlikely that all Eligible Shareholders will take up their Entitlements in full. The table below sets out the estimated maximum dilutive effect of the Entitlement and Shortfall Offers on Existing Shareholders, assuming various subscription scenarios.

Subscription under Entitlement

New Shares to Eligible
Shareholders under Entitlement

100% subscription 76,241,715 0.00%
75% subscription 57,181,286 5.00%
50% subscription 38,120,857 10.00%
25% subscription 19,060,428 15.00%
Nil subscription 0 20.00%

Notes:

  1. The table assumes that other Shares are not issued (including on the exercise of Options or vesting of Performance Rights) prior to the close of the Closing Date.

  2. The dilution percentages assume that all New Shares are issued to Applicants other than Eligible Shareholders. The dilution represents a percentage of the total maximum Shares on issue on completion of the Entitlement Offer (381,208,578 Shares) that are held by persons other than Eligible Shareholders.

5.3 Potential dilution from New Options

The issue of New Options will not have any dilutive effect on Shareholders’ shareholding interests unless and until those Options are exercised.

A maximum of 76,241,715 New Options may be issued under the Offers, each representing one underlying Share. If 76,241,715 New Options are issued and all of these New Options are exercised, the resulting Shares would represent an increase to the Shares on issue of approximately 20% and have a dilutive effect on Shareholders’ shareholding interests of approximately 16.7% on a post-Offer basis (assuming a total of 381,208,578 Shares are on issue following completion of the Offers).

5.4 Effect on control

The potential effect of the Entitlement and Shortfall Offers on control of the Company will largely depend upon the level of Entitlements taken up by Eligible Shareholders under the Entitlement Offer.

If all Eligible Shareholders subscribe for their Entitlements in full, the Entitlement and Shortfall Offers would not have a material effect on control of the Company as each Eligible Shareholder’s percentage shareholding should remain substantially the same as at the Record Date.

In the more likely event that not all Eligible Shareholders subscribe for their full Entitlement and a Shortfall remains, Eligible Shareholders who do not subscribe for their full Entitlement and Excluded Shareholders unable to participate in the Entitlement Offer will be diluted relative to those Eligible Shareholders who take up some or all of their Entitlement.

The Company will not issue any New Shares to any Applicant to the Shortfall Offer if, in the view of the Directors, to do so would result in any person (whether or not the Applicant) obtaining voting power in the Company in contravention of the takeover restrictions in section 606 of the Corporations Act, subject to certain exceptions permitted by law.

In summary, section 606 of the Corporations Act provides that a person cannot acquire a ‘relevant interest’ (i.e. a controlling interest, whether formal or informal) in the issued voting shares of a company which has more than 50 members or is publicly listed if, because of the transaction in relation to securities, a person’s ‘voting power’ in the company increases from 20% or below to more than 20%, or from a starting point that is above 20% and below 90%.

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

26

Prospectus

However, items 10 and 13 of section 611 of the Corporations Act provide exceptions to the takeover restrictions where a person subscribes for their Entitlement to the Entitlement Offer or underwrites or sub-underwrites an issue of Securities under a prospectus or other disclosure document.

The Entitlement Offer is partially underwritten by the Underwriter. The Underwriter’s Associates, Silver Mountain, Metech and Quartz, together control 27.70% of the Shares on issue at the Prospectus Date.

The estimated combined Entitlement of Silver Mountain, Metech and Quartz is 21,116,758 New Shares and 21,116,758 New Options.

The maximum number of New Shares comprising the Shortfall that the Underwriter could be required to subscribe for is 20,833,333 New Shares and corresponding New Options ( Underwritten Securities ), which would result in the Underwriter, together with its Associates, controlling a total of approximately 32.32% of the Shares on issue after completion of the Offers. This would only occur if none of the Eligible Shareholders took up their Entitlements, which the Directors consider to be unlikely.

As at the Prospectus Date, the Underwriter’s Associates have informed the Company that they do not currently intend to take up their Entitlements or participate in the Shortfall Offer. However, if they do, the Underwriting Agreement provides that the Underwritten Securities will be reduced to the extent of any Application by an Associate of the Underwriter.

The table below sets out the estimated voting power which the Underwriter could obtain pursuant to its Underwriting Commitment, assuming various Shortfall subscription scenarios.

Notes:

  1. At the Prospectus Date, the Underwriter’s Associates, Silver Mountain, Metech and Quartz, control 84,467,032 Shares, representing 27.70% of the total Shares on issue.

  2. The table assumes Silver Mountain, Metech and Quartz do not take up their Entitlements.

5.5 Effects on activities

The funds raised under the Offers will provide funds for the purposes set out in Section 3.1(b).

Following completion of the Offer, the Company intends to pursue the activities described in Section 2.1.

5.6 Effect on financial position

6. Risk Factors

6.1 Introduction

Investors wishing to subscribe for New Securities under the Offers should read this Prospectus in its entirety in order to make an informed assessment of the effect of the issue of New Securities in the Company, as well as the rights and liabilities attaching to New Securities.

Potential Applicants should carefully consider whether New Securities in the Company are an appropriate investment for them and should appreciate that the price of the Company’s Securities can fall as well as rise.

An investment in the Company’s Securities should be viewed as speculative. Potential Applicants should be aware of, and take into account, the risk factors associated with investing in the Company.

This Section 6 is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the considerations to be taken into account by potential Applicants in deciding whether or not to subscribe for New Securities, nor all of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed. Some of these risks can be mitigated by using safeguards and appropriate systems and actions, but many are outside the control of the Company and cannot be mitigated.

There are risks associated with investing in any form of business and with investing in the share market generally. All potential Applicants should consult their professional advisers if they are in any doubt as to any aspect of this Prospectus, the Offers or any other matter relating to an investment in the Company.

6.2

Company specific risks

The following risks have been identified as being key risks specific to the Group and an investment in the Company. These risks have the potential to have a significant adverse impact on the Company and may affect the Company’s financial position, prospects and price of its quoted Securities.

(a) Reliance on key personnel

The Company’s success depends to a significant extent upon its key management personnel, as well as other employees and technical personnel including sub-contractors. The Company has a small management team. The loss of the services of the Company’s key personnel could have an adverse effect on the Company at this early stage of development, particularly as finding an effective replacement may be difficult.

(b) No profit to date

The Company has incurred operating losses since its inception. As the Company intends to conduct further exploration activities on the Oracle Ridge Project and Silver Mountain Project, the Directors anticipate the Company making further losses in the foreseeable future.

While the Directors have confidence in the future revenue-earning potential of the Company, there can be no certainty that the Company will achieve or sustain profitability or achieve or sustain positive cash flow from its operating activities.

(c) Tenure risks

Interests in exploration and mining claims and permits in Arizona are governed by the mining laws of Arizona and the United States and are evidenced by the granting of patented mining claims, unpatented mining claims and Arizona state exploration permits. Each mining claim and permit is subject to various conditions which must be complied with, including an annual property tax in respect of patented mining claims, an annual rental payment in respect of unpatented mining claims, and a specific term of grant and annual expenditure conditions in respect of Arizona state exploration permits.

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

30

Prospectus

The Company will follow the mandated processes under the relevant Arizona and United States legislation to ensure continuity of its mining tenure and planned activities. However, the Company could lose title to, or its interest in, its current mining claims (or any additional mining claims, permits or other interests acquired by the Company in the future) if the conditions attaching to the claim or permit are not satisfied or if the permits are not renewed.

In addition, while patented and unpatented mining claims grant the holder the exclusive right to mine the claim area, Arizona state exploration permits may not provide exclusive access to the permit area as other co-existing permits or mineral leases may exist. If a commercial discovery is made on a conflicting permit or lease and the holder proposes to commence mining operations, this may result in part of the Company’s permit area being “cordoned off” which could potentially restrict the development rights of the Company in order to accommodate the development of the other resource. Whilst no permits or leases have been granted which conflict with the Company’s permits at the date of this Prospectus, there can be no assurance that conflicting permits or leases will not be granted in the future.

Access to part of the Company’s Oracle Ridge Copper Project is subject to an Industrial Property Lease agreement ( Lease Agreement ) with Marble Mountain Ventures LLC ( MMV ). The Lease Agreement provides surface access rights over patented claims which cover areas including the current mineral resource, the existing 5900 and 6400 mine portals, and the historic mill site ( Relevant Patented Claims ). The Company makes annual lease payments of approximately US$194,000 to MMV pursuant to the Lease Agreement. The lease payments are subject to annual escalation for inflation. The term of the lease automatically renews every three years until expiration of the term on 31 January 2040.

A Reversionary Interest in the Mineral Rights is held by MMV over certain of the Relevant Patented Claims. The reversion is set to occur on 18 February 2025, unless an extension option is exercised by the Company and an extension payment in the order of US$3 million adjusted for CPI is remitted to MMV ( Extension Option ).

On exercise of the Extension Option, the Company’s interest in the mineral rights related to the Relevant Patented Claims will be extended to 18 February 2040. Should the Company be unable to raise sufficient funds to make the Extension Payment or renegotiate the terms of the reversionary interest, the mineral rights relating to the Relevant Patented Claims will revert to MMV.

(d) Future capital requirements

The Company’s ongoing activities including repayment of its secured debt and the exercise or renegotiation of the Extension Option are likely to require substantial further financing in the future, in addition to amounts raised pursuant to the Offers. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to Shareholders, may be undertaken at lower prices than the price of Shares offered under the Offers or may involve restrictive covenants which may limit the Company’s operations and business strategy.

Although the Directors believe that additional capital can be obtained, there cannot be any assurance that appropriate capital or funding, if and when needed, will be available on terms favourable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce, delay or suspend its operations which may result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s activities and its ability to continue as a going concern.

6.3 Industry specific risks

Mineral exploration, development and mining activities are high-risk undertakings and there can be no assurance that any exploration or development activity in regard to the Company’s current properties, or any properties that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery or exploitation of an economic resource.

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

31

Prospectus

Mineral exploration, development and mining may be hampered by circumstances beyond the control of the Company and are speculative operations which by their nature are subject to a number of inherent risks, including the following:

(a) Exploration, geological and development risks

Mineral exploration and development is a speculative and high risk activity that requires large amounts of expenditure over extended periods of time and may be impeded by circumstances and factors beyond the Company’s control. The Company’s ability to succeed in this process involves (amongst other things):

  • (i) discovery and proving-up, or acquiring, an economically recoverable mineral resource or reserve;

  • (ii) access to adequate capital throughout the acquisition/discovery and project development phases of a mineral exploration project;

  • (iii) maintaining title to the Silver Mountain Project area;

  • (iv) obtaining required development consents and approvals necessary for the acquisition, exploration, development and production phases of the project; and

  • (v) accessing the necessary experienced operational staff, the applicable financial management and recruiting skilled contractors, consultants and employees.

The exploration program determined by the Directors is based upon the Directors’ best professional assessment and estimates which have been based on limited geological information available in relation to the area of the Silver Mountain Project. There can be no assurance that the application of these funds on the forthcoming exploration program, or subsequent exploration program, will result in the realisation of the Company’s objectives such as the discovery of an economic mineral resource. Even if an apparently viable mineral resource is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited. Conclusions drawn during mineral exploration are subject to the uncertainties associated with all sampling techniques and to the risk of incorrect interpretation of geological, geochemical, geophysical, drilling and other data.

By their nature, the estimates and assumptions on which the Company’s exploration program is based are subject to significant uncertainties and, accordingly, the actual costs may materially differ from these estimates and assumptions. No assurance can be given that the cost estimates and the underlying assumptions will be realised in practice, which may materially and adversely affect the Company’s viability.

The Company’s exploration activities are subject to all the hazards and risks normally encountered in the exploration of minerals, including but not limited to:

  • (i) geological and climatic conditions;

  • (ii) operational and technical risks;

  • (iii) changes in laws, regulations and government policy; and

  • (iv) risks associated with operating in remote areas and other similar considerations.

Whether positive income-flows result from exploration and development expenditure incurred by the Company is dependent on many factors including successful exploration, establishment of production facilities, cost control, commodity price movements, successful contract negotiations for production and stability in the local political environment.

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

32

Prospectus

In addition, significant expenditure may be required to establish necessary metallurgical and mining processes to develop and exploit any mineral reserves identified on the Silver Mountain Project or any other project area operated by the Company in the future. There can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient working capital or resources available to do this.

(b) Operational and technical risks

The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including but not limited to:

  • (i) failure to locate or identify mineral deposits;

  • (ii) failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining;

  • (iii) operational and technical difficulties encountered in mining;

  • (iv) insufficient or unreliable infrastructure, such as power, water and transport; difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment;

  • (v) mechanical failure or plant breakdown;

  • (vi) unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs;

  • (vii) adverse weather conditions (including fire and flood);

  • (viii) industrial and environmental accidents;

  • (ix) industrial disputes and labour shortages; and

  • (x) unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

There is a risk that the Company may suffer loss upon the occurrence of any of the above factors. The Company and the Board intends to conduct activities to high standards of care and diligence.

(c)

Commodity price fluctuations

The Company’s potential earnings will be largely derived from the sale of mineral commodities (including gold and base metals). Accordingly, the Company’s future revenues and cash flow will be impacted by fluctuations in the price and available markets of these commodities. Any future revenue derived through any future sales of valuable minerals exposes the potential income of the Company to commodity price risks.

Commodity prices fluctuate and may be affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company including:

  • (i) current and expected future supply and demand for relevant commodities in the region and globally;

  • (ii) forward-selling by producers;

  • (iii) the level of production costs in major commodity-producing regions;

  • (iv) macroeconomic factors such as expectations regarding inflation and interest rates; and

  • (v) the development of new technologies including any substitute products in relation to the current uses of particular commodities.

Changes in commodity prices may have a positive or negative effect on the Company’s project development, plans and activities, including its ability to fund those activities. The Company

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

33

Prospectus

cannot provide any assurance as to the prices it will achieve for any mineral commodities it produces. Any substantial decline in the price of those commodities or in transport or distribution costs may have a material adverse effect on the Company and the value of its Securities.

(d)

Exchange rate fluctuations

The Company’s financial statements are expressed in Australian dollars. International prices of most commodities are denominated in United States dollars and much of the expenditure incurred by the Company is denominated in United States dollars and Canadian dollars. This exposes the Company to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between the United States dollar, Canadian dollar and the Australian dollar, subject to any currency hedging the Company may undertake. The exchange rate is affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company, including international markets, interest rates, inflation and the general economic outlook.

(e)

Environmental risks

The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to State and Federal laws and regulations in the United States concerning the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company’s proposed activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. Such impact can give rise to substantial costs for environmental rehabilitation, damage, control and losses.

The potential environmental impacts of the Company’s proposed activities could be expected to require statutory approvals to be obtained by the Company. There is no guarantee that such approvals would be granted and failure to obtain any environmental approvals that may be required from relevant government or regulatory authorities may impede or prevent the Company from undertaking its planned activities. If there are environmental rehabilitation conditions attaching to the mining claims and permits of the Company, failure to meet such conditions could also lead to forfeiture of the mining claims and permits (or any additional mining claims, permits or other interests held by the Company in the future). The Company conducts its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.

The Company is unable to predict the impact of any changes to environmental laws, regulations or policies that may be adopted in the future. The Company cannot guarantee that any new environmental laws, regulations or stricter enforcement policies, once implemented, will not result in significant increases in the Company’s expenses and could have a material adverse effect on the Company and the value of its Securities.

(f)

Competition

The mining and exploration industry in which the Company participates is subject to domestic and global competition. Some of the competing companies have greater financial and other resources than the Company and, as a result, may be in a better position to compete for future business opportunities. While the Company will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors. As such, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete effectively with these companies.

6.4 General investment risks

The business activities of the Company are subject to various general economic and investment risks that may impact the future performance of the Company. Some of these risks can be mitigated by the use of safeguards and appropriate systems and controls, but some are outside the control of the Company and cannot be mitigated. There are a number of general economic and investment risk factors that apply to companies generally and may include economic, financial, market or regulatory conditions. These risk factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

34

Prospectus

(a) Liquidity and volatility

There is a risk that, particularly in times of security market turbulence or negative investor sentiment, there will not be a highly liquid market for Shares or that the price of Shares may decrease considerably. There may be relatively few buyers or sellers of Securities on ASX at any given time and the market price may by highly volatile.

This may result in holders wishing to sell their Shares in circumstances where they may receive considerably less than the price paid under the Offers (where applicable).

(b)

General economic conditions

Economic conditions, both domestic and global, may affect the performance of the Company. Factors such as fluctuations in currencies, commodity prices, inflation, interest rates, supply and demand and industrial disruption may have an impact on operating costs and share market prices. The Company’s future possible revenues and Securities prices can be affected by these factors, all of which are beyond the control of the Company and its Directors.

(c) Equity market conditions

Shares listed on a securities market, and in particular shares of small companies at earlier stages of commercial development, can experience price and volume fluctuations that are often unrelated to the operating performances of such companies. The market price of Shares may fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general. These security market conditions may affect the value of Shares regardless of the Company’s operating performance.

General factors that may affect the market price of Shares include economic conditions in both Australia and internationally, investor sentiment, local and international share market conditions, changes in interest rates and the rate of inflation, variations in commodity prices, the global security situation and the possibility of terrorist disturbances, changes to government regulation, policy or legislation, changes which may occur to the taxation of companies as a result of changes in Australian and foreign taxation laws, changes to the system of dividend imputation in Australia, and changes in exchange rates.

(d) General changes in legislation and government policy

Any material adverse changes in relevant government policies or legislation of Australia or internationally may affect the viability and profitability of the Company, and consequent returns to investors.

(e)

Investment risk

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of Shares. Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for New Securities.

(f) Insurance

The Company adequately insures its operations in accordance with industry practice. However, in certain circumstances, the Company’s insurance may not be of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or only partially covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of the Company.

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ACN 621 541 204)

35

Prospectus

(g) Other

Other risk factors include those normally found in conducting business, including litigation resulting from the breach of agreements or in relation to employees (through personal injuries, industrial matters or otherwise) or any other cause, strikes, lockouts, loss of service of key management or operational personnel, non-insurable risks, delay in resumption of activities after reinstatement following the occurrence of an insurable risk and other matters that may interfere with the business or trade of the Company.
