E X PL A N A T O R Y S T A T EM E N T
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
1. BACKGROUND TO RESOLUTIONS 1 TO 4 – PLACEMENT AND SHARE PURCHASE PLAN
1.1 Capital Raising
On 18 November 2025, the Company announced that it had received binding commitments for a placement of up to 182,857,144 Shares at an issue price of $0.175 per Share to institutional and sophisticated investors ( Placement Participants ) to raise a total of $32,000,000 (before costs) ( Placement ). The Placement Participants were identified through a bookbuild process undertaken by Bell Potter Securities Limited (ACN 006 390 772) ( Bell Potter ).
The Placement will be completed in two tranches, as follows:
-
(a) Placement Tranche 1: 75,633,200 Shares which were issued to Placement Participants under the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A placement capacity on 25 November 2025 (for which ratification is sought under Resolution 1 and Resolution 2 respectively); and
-
(b) Placement Tranche 2: 107,223,944 Shares are to be issued subject to Shareholder approval which is sought under Resolution 3 .
In conjunction with the Placement, the Company also announced that it was undertaking a Share Purchase Plan seeking to raise a further $2,000,000 at an offer price of $0.175 per Share ( SPP ). The SPP will be offered to existing eligible shareholders, being Shareholders of the Company with a registered address in Australia and New Zealand ( SPP Participants ).
The Capital Raising Participants are also entitled, subject to receiving Shareholder approval at this Meeting, to 1 Option for every 1.1 Shares issued under the Placement and SPP, exercisable at $0.24 each on or before the date that is 3 years from the date of issue ( Capital Raising Options ), and otherwise on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 1.
Shareholder approval for the Capital Raising Options is sought under Resolution 4 of this Notice.
Because it was a term of the Placement that participants in the Placement would receive the Capital Raising Options, Resolutions 3 and 4 are inter conditional. Accordingly, if Resolution 3 is not passed to approve the issue of Shares under Placement Tranche 2, then Resolution 4 cannot be passed.
SPP Participants, being eligible shareholders who subscribe for and receive Shares under the SPP, will also be entitled to participate in the future offer of the Capital Raising Options. The SPP does not close until after the date and time of the Meeting. As such, who is entitled to receive Capital Raising Options under the SPP is not yet known as at the date of this Notice of Meeting.
1.2 Use of Funds
As announced on 18 November 2025, the funds raised under both the Placement and SPP will be applied towards the acquisition of the Lake Johnston Project, to provide general working capital and for the costs of the Placement.
1.3 Lead Manager
The Company agreed, pursuant to a lead manager mandate with Bell Potter entered into on or about 14 November 2025 ( Lead Manager Mandate ), to pay a cash fee of 6% of the gross amount raised under the Placement. The Lead Manager Mandate is otherwise on standard terms and conditions for a mandate between a lead manager and company.

2. RESOLUTIONS 1 AND 2 – RATIFICATION OF TRANCHE 1 PLACEMENT SHARES
2.1 General
A summary of the Placement is set out in Section 1.1 above.
Resolutions 1 and 2 seek Shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of an aggregate of 75,633,200 Shares at an issue price of $0.175 per Share to raise $13,235,810 under Tranche 1 of the Placement.
28,954,872 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (being, the subject of Resolution 1) and 46,678,328 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A (being, the subject of Resolution 2).
2.2 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A
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 12 month period.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an Eligible Entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%. The Company obtained this approval at its annual general meeting held on 28 November 2025.
The issue does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 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 date of the issue.
2.3 Listing Rule 7.4
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 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue.
2.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolutions 1 and 2 are passed, the issue will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
If these Resolutions are not passed, the issue will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
2.5 Technical information required by Listing Rules 7.4 and 7.5
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| Names of persons to whom Securities were issued or the basis on which those persons were identified/selected |

3. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE TRANCHE 2 PLACEMENT SHARES
3.1 General
A summary of the Placement is set out in Section 1.1 above.
Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of 107,223,944 Shares to the Placement Participants at an issue price of $0.175 per Share to raise up to approximately $18,764,190 under Tranche 2 of the Placement.
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.
The proposed issue falls within exception 17 of Listing Rule 7.2 which excludes from the restrictions in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A an agreement to issue equity securities that is conditional on the holders of its ordinary securities approving the issue under Listing Rule 7.1 before the issue is made. If an entity relies on this exception, it must not issue securities without such approval, The proposed issue therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 3 is also conditional upon Shareholders approving Resolution 4, being for the issue of the Capital Raising Options to participants in the Placement and the SPP. This is because the issue of the Capital Raising Options was a term of the Placement (and the SPP).
3.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue. In addition, the issue 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.
8
5426-02/3865880_5
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue. The Company will therefore not raise a further $18,764,190 under Tranche 2 of the Placement. Further, if this Resolution is not passed, the issue of Capital Raising Options pursuant to Resolution 4 will not proceed as Resolution 4 is conditional on Shareholder approval being received for this Resolution.
3.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| Names of persons to whom Securities will be issued or the basis on which those persons were or will be identified/selected |

| Number of Securities and class to be issued |

4. RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE ATTACHING OPTIONS
4.1 General
A summary of the Placement and SPP is set out in Section 1.1.
Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of up to 176,623,378 Capital Raising Options to the participants in the Placement and the SPP. The Capital Raising Options will be issued on the basis of 1 Capital Raising Option for every 1.1 Shares subscribed for and issued under the Placement and SPP. The Capital Raising Options will be exercisable at $0.24 each on or before the date that is 3 years from the date of issue, and otherwise on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 1.
This Resolution is subject to the passing of Resolution 3 above. This is because the Capital Raising Options are a term of the Capital Raising, including eligible shareholders who participate in the SPP, and will not be issued except to those parties.
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.
9
5426-02/3865880_5
The proposed issue falls within exception 17 of Listing Rule 7.2 which excludes from the restrictions in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A an agreement to issue equity securities that is conditional on the holders of its ordinary securities approving the issue under Listing Rule 7.1 before the issue is made. If an entity relies on this exception, it must not issue securities without such approval. Therefore, the proposed issue therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
4.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue. In addition, the issue 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.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Capital Raising Options. Further, if this Resolution is not passed, the issue of Shares in relation to Tranche 2 of the Placement and pursuant to Resolution 3 will not proceed as Resolution 3 is conditional on Shareholder approval being received for this Resolution.

| Price or other consideration the Company will receive for the Securities |
The Capital Raising Options will be issued for nil consideration as they are free attaching to the Shares issued under both the Placement and SPP. |

6.2 General
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of $3,550,000 in Shares as part consideration for the Tenement Acquisition as set out in Section 6.1.
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.
The proposed issue falls within exception 17 of Listing Rule 7.2 which excludes from the restrictions in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A an agreement to issue equity securities that is conditional on the holders of its ordinary securities approving the issue under Listing Rule 7.1 before the issue is made. The proposed issue therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
6.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the Tenement Acquisition. In addition, the issue 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.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue. Accordingly, the Company would not be able to proceed with the Tenement Acquisition and will not have the benefit of acquiring additional mineral tenure.

7. RESOLUTION 7 – RATIFICATION OF AGREEMENT TO ISSUE SHARES TO HORIZON MINERALS LIMITED
7.1 General
On 18 November 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to acquire the Lake Johnston Project from Poseidon Nickel Pty Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Horizon Minerals Limited.
As set out in that announcement, part of the consideration for that acquisition was the issue of $5 million of Shares at $0.175 per Share, equal to 28,571,429 Shares.
The Shares will not be issued prior to the date of the Meeting, but are expected to be issued at completion, which will occur after Shareholders approve Tranche 2 of the Placement. Completion is expected to occur in the weeks following the date of the Meeting.
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.
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 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the agreement to issue these Shares, subject to the Shares being issued within 3 months from the date of the Meeting.
7.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolution 7 is passed and the Shares are issued within 3 months from the date of the Meeting, the issue will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
14
5426-02/3865880_5
If Resolution 7 is passed and the Shares are subsequently issued, the issue will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
7.3 Technical information required by Listing Rules 7.4 and 7.5
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| Names of persons with whom the Company has agreed to issue Shares |
Poseidon Nickel Pty Limited |

The Shares will not be issued as at the date of the Meeting, but are expected to be issued within 3 months of the date of the Meeting on the date when the Company completes the acquisition of the Lake Johnston Project with Poseidon Nickel Pty Limited. |
| Price or other consideration the Company received for the Securities |
The agreement to issue the Shares is as part consideration for the acquisition of the Lake Johnston Project. As such the Shares are being issued for nil cash consideration, but for a deemed total issue price of $5 million. |
| Purpose of the issue, including the intended use of any funds raised by the issue |
No funds will be raised from the issue. |
| Summary of material terms of agreement to issue |

HPH is the holder of two advanced open pit gold projects on granted mining leases. Details of the gold projects and existing resource estimates can be found in the Company’s ASX announcement dated 11 August 2025.
The Consideration payable under the agreement includes the following:

-
(f) The agreement is otherwise on standard terms and conditions for a share sale agreement.
The Company previously received Shareholder approval to issue the first tranche of the Hyden Consideration Shares and the Consideration Options at its general meeting held on 31 October 2025. Given that the Hyden Option has not yet been exercised, and has now been extended, the Company will not issue the Securities by 31 January 2025.
Accordingly, the Company is now seeking re-approval to issue the first tranche of the Hyden Consideration Shares and the 15,000,000 Consideration Options at a date later than 31 January 2025.
8.2 General
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of up to 20,692,250 Shares and 15,000,000 Consideration Options under the first tranche payable should the Company exercise the Hyden Option.
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.
The proposed issues fall within exception 17 of Listing Rule 7.2. The issue therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
8.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue. In addition, the issue 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.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue. This would mean that completion under that relevant acquisition could not occur and the Company would not get the benefit of acquiring the relevant mineral tenure in Western Australia.

9. RESOLUTION 9 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE OPTIONS TO NEW DIRECTOR – BRETT HODGINS
9.1 General
On 5 December 2025, the Company appointed Brett Hodgins as an Executive Director and, as per the Company’s constitution and Listing Rule 14.4, hold office until the end of the Company’s next Annual General Meeting.
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of 15,000,000 Options to Mr Hodgins (or his nominee(s)) on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 4.
18
5426-02/3865880_5
Further details in respect of the Securities proposed to be issued are set out in the table below.
| CLASS | QUANTITY | EXERCISE PRICE | EXPIRY |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | 5,000,000 | $0.40 | Each Option will expire at 5:00pm (AWST) on or before the date that is three (3) years from the date of issue. |

9.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that for a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
-
(a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
-
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.
The issue constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Hodgins is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.
The Directors (other than Mr Hodgins who has a material personal interest in the Resolution) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue because the agreement to issue the Options, reached as part of the remuneration package for Mr Hodgins, is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances and was negotiated on an arm’s length basis and prior to Mr Hodgin’s appointment as a Director.
9.3 Listing Rule 10.11
Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:
-
10.11.1 a related party; 10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;
-
10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;
-
10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or
-
10.11.5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,
unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.
The issue falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.
19
5426-02/3865880_5
9.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue. The Company may have to identify other ways to appropriately remunerate Mr Hodgins, such as the provision of cash incentives.
9.5 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 10.13
