PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal activity of the Group during the period was mineral exploration.
FINANCIAL RESULTS AND FINANCIAL POSITION
The net loss of the Group for the half-year after providing for income tax amounted to $127,627 (2024: $638,584).
The Group has not reached a stage in its development where it is generating an operating profit. All the Group’s efforts go into project exploration and evaluation.
At the end of the financial period the Group had cash on hand, including deposits of $9,096,301 (30 June 2025: $9,736,051) and net assets of $47,638,940 (30 June 2025: $46,993,637).
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Galileo has two highly prospective West Australian resource and exploration projects being:
-
The Norseman Project, prospective for palladium-platinum-nickel-copper-cobalt-rhodium deposits similar to the existing JORC compliant Callisto Resource[8] ; and
-
The Fraser Range Project, with exploration tenements prospective for nickel-copper-cobalt deposits.
During the half-year ended 31 December 2025, the Group’s main activities were focused on systematic exploration at the Norseman Project, including aircore drilling, RC drilling and regional-scale geophysical programs designed to advance target generation and drill testing across multiple high-priority prospects.
While Galileo’s primary focus remains developing its Norseman project, the Company continued to advance technical review work across its Fraser Range Joint Venture to refine exploration targeting and determine future work programs.

One of the targets was identified from assay results from the March/April 2025 drill campaign which showed peak assays of 4.11 g/t palladium and 2.47 g/t platinum over one metre from 29m depth in NAC6171.[2] NAC617 occurred at the end of an aircore drill line and is open to the east. Figure 4 shows the location of the NAC617 target zone.
Figure 5 shows the location of an additional three target zones which have been confirmed through shallow aircore drill results. The southern two target zones in Figure 5, and prospective zones along the southern extent of the 12km long Mission Sill strike length were drilled in the campaign.

During December, Galileo completed a reverse circulation (RC) drilling program at Norseman of approximately 2,000m, targeting bedrock mineralisation beneath previously identified near-surface gold and PGE anomalism.[4] RC drilling targeted priority prospects including Mission Sill (15 drill holes), Jimberlana South (one drill hole) and Callisto North (two drill holes), focusing on interpreted ultramafic–mafic contacts and structural positions considered favourable for sulphide-hosted PGE-gold mineralisation. These geological settings are analogous to that which hosts mineralisation at the existing Callisto palladiumplatinum-gold-rhodium-nickel–copper deposit. The location of the prospects relative to the existing Callisto resource is shown in Figure 8.

Subsequent to the end of half-year, Galileo reported assay results from the program confirm prospective zones of palladium-platinum-gold at the Mission Sill prospect.[5]
Multiple drill intersections from the Mission Sill prospect confirm and expand on aircore drill results with broad intersections of anomalous PGE greater than 0.4 g/t recorded in five drill holes from two sections spaced 200m apart (see Figure 9 for details). These results have highlighted a structural target at the southern end of the 10km long Mission Sill prospect where the magnetic imagery is distinctively reoriented. One metre split samples will be collected and assayed over selected intervals to help determine the location of higher-grade zones prior to follow-up drilling.

Drill holes at the Jimberlana and Callisto North prospects successfully intersected disseminated sulphides at the predicted geological contacts however mineralisation was below the reporting cut-off of 0.4 g/t. Results from these areas highlight the overall prospectivity of the Norseman project, in particular the Callisto trend where mapped ultramafic lithologies occur over 20km strike. Additional one metre split samples from these prospects will be collected to assist in understanding sulphide and metal deportment at maficultramafic lithological contacts.

Gravity Survey
During the period, Galileo completed a large-scale ground gravity survey across the Norseman Project designed to enhance understanding of subsurface geological architecture, intrusive geometries and structural controls across the broader ultramafic sill complex.[6]
The survey comprised approximately 3,000 gravity stations collected at a detailed 400m x 100m spacing, including infill across key areas at the Callisto resource and the Mission Sill prospect. Interpretation of the gravity dataset is underway and will be integrated with existing geological mapping, geochemistry, magnetics and drilling datasets to refine drill targets and support follow-up drilling programs planned for 2026.
Diamond Drilling (commenced February 2026)
Post period end, Galileo reported a diamond core drilling campaign commenced in late February to focus directly below the Callisto resource to test for additional mineralisation and to increase the understanding of how the deposit was formed.[7] As well as the potential of making a new discovery, the information obtained from drilling will assist in further exploration along strike from Callisto and in the Norseman project area. The initial EIS diamond drill hole is planned to 600m with further extensions possible as determined by results.

Norseman Project Resource Definition
Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate – Callisto Deposit
In October 2023[8] , Galileo reported the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (Resource) for the Callisto deposit, the first deposit of its type identified in Australia. The nature of mineralisation at Callisto is analogous in style to the Platreef deposits found in South Africa. The resources at the South African Platreef occur as discrete deposits within an extensive strike zone and the style of mineralisation at that location supports the belief that the Norseman project can also host additional mineralisation beyond the established Callisto resource.
The maiden Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate, which was defined from a total of 147 drill holes (38,695m), was calculated as:
- 17.5 Mt @ 1.04 g/t 4E, 0.20% Ni, 0.16% Cu (2.3 g/t PdEq or 0.52% NiEq) for contained metal of 585,000oz 4E, 35kt Ni and 28kt Cu (~1.27Moz PdEq or ~91,000t NiEq). See Table 2 for MRE details.
8 Refer to ASX announcement dated 2nd October 2023
14
GALILEO MINING LTD ABN 70 104 114 132
Approximately 8Mt (46%) of the resource is inside the indicated category with a 2.5 g/t PdEq grade or 0.58% NiEq (metal content within indicated resource category of ~639,000oz PdEq or ~45,800t NiEq).
About 95% of the resource is constrained by pit optimisation and remains open at depth with potential for additional resource delineation. The resource is modelled as continuous sulphide mineralisation within a single geological domain.
The resource estimate was undertaken by Cube Consulting, using data gathered from drilling activities following the discovery hole in May 2022 up until July 2023.
Further JORC details of the maiden mineral resource are outlined in Table 2.
The Callisto deposit is an undercover discovery found after a review of two drill holes which targeted a geophysical EM conductor. While the source of the conductor was a sulphidic sediment it was noted that the drill holes had passed through a band of weakly disseminated sulphide mineralisation in the overlying ultramafic intrusive rock. Recognition of the mineralised intervals, the interpretation of increasing metal grades to the east, and understanding the context of the potential mineralisation within the broader regional ultramafic geology provided the drill target which led to the discovery.
A regional interpretation of prospective rock units shows that the mafic-ultramafic sill complex which hosts the Callisto deposit is continuous over 20km of strike length. The potential occurrence of additional mineralisation within the host rock complex is now the focus of intense exploration activity with drill programs and geophysical IP surveys aiming to advance the project toward new discoveries.
The mineralised sill at Callisto has an average strike length of 300m and dips to the east over 800m length down dip with average true thickness of approximately 40m. At the western end the mineralisation lies 75m below the surface where it dips shallowly to the east for ~650m before steeply dipping at the eastern end. The lower limit of mineralisation is 650m below the surface.

==> picture [489 x 188] intentionally omitted <==
Notes to Table 2:
Based on metallurgical test work completed to date, the Company believes that Callisto’s mineralisation is amenable to concentration using a conventional crushing, milling and flotation process, and has Reasonable Prospects for Eventual Economic Extraction.
Metallurgical recovery assumptions used for metal equivalent value calculations were: Pd – 82%, Pt – 78%, Au – 79%, Rh – 63%, Ni – 77%, Cu – 94%
Metal price assumptions, based on 12 month calculated averages to 11 September 2023, were used for metal equivalent values: Pd – US$1,600/oz, Pt – US$975/oz, Au – US$1,870/oz, Rh – US$9,420/oz, Ni – US$23,800/t, Cu – US$8,420/t. Based on metallurgical test work completed to date, the Company believes that all metals included in the metal equivalent calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.
Mineral Resources Lithium Joint Venture
During the half-year, Galileo received a $1.0 million Tranche 2 progress payment from Mineral Resources Ltd under the Norseman Lithium Farm-In and Joint Venture Agreement.[9]
The Joint Venture partners have agreed to a temporary suspension of the full Joint Venture until final payment of the $1.5 million cash consideration which is due by 30 November 2027.
During the suspension, Mineral Resources may undertake low-impact, non-ground-disturbing exploration activities at its own cost. This arrangement preserves flexibility for future exploration while continuing to provide Galileo with non-dilutive funding support.

Fraser Range Project (67% GAL / 33% Creasy Group JV)
While the priority for Galileo during the period was exploration at Norseman, the Company is in the process of reviewing and interpreting all available data from its Fraser Range prospects Easterly, Westerly, and Kitchener, including the results from the June 2025 quarter’s RC drilling campaign.
As previously reported, 25WERC002 was drilled to 241m at the Westerly prospect with 25EARC001 and 25EARC002 drilled to 235m and 318m respectively at the Easterly prospect (see Figures 11 and 12 for prospect locations).[10] Each of these drill holes intersected prospective Fraser Range mafic intrusive rocks interspersed with meta-sediments. Varying degrees of graphite occurred in the meta-sediments close to the modelled EM conductors.
27 RC chip samples were petrographically described, and these results are now being integrated with the drill results, downhole EM survey results, magnetic data, and gravity data to determine further work programs.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
The financial report of Galileo Mining Ltd for the half-year ended 31 December 2025 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of directors on 12 March 2026.
Galileo Mining Ltd is a company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange.
The address of the registered office is 945 Wellington Street, West Perth WA 6005.
The Company’s principal activity during the half-year was mineral exploration. Major exploration activities during the period are outlined in the Review of Operations as contained in the Directors’ Report.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of preparation
This half-year financial report for the half-year ended 31 December 2025 is a condensed general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards including AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting, Accounting Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The half-year financial report does not include all notes of the type normally included within the annual financial report and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and financing and investing activities of the Group as the full financial report.
For the purpose of preparing the financial report, the Group is a for-profit entity. The half-year financial report should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2025.
It is also recommended that the half-year financial report be considered together with any public announcements made by Galileo Mining Ltd during the half-year ended 31 December 2025 in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations arising under the ASX Listing Rules.
The accounting policies and methods of computation are the same as those adopted in the most recent annual financial report and are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards except for the impact (if any) of the new and revised standards and interpretations outlined in (c) below. The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the valuation of certain non-current assets and financial instruments.
The Company is domiciled in Australia and all amounts are presented in Australian dollars which is the functional currency.
(b) Statement of compliance
The financial statements comply with Australian Accounting Standards, which include Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS). Compliance with AIFRS ensures that the financial report, comprising the interim financial statements and notes thereto, complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
(c) Adoption of new and revised standards
Standards and Interpretations applicable to 31 December 2025
In the period ended 31 December 2025, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Group and effective for the current reporting period. As a result of this review, the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Group and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.
Standards and Interpretations issued, not yet applicable
The Directors have also reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued, not yet applicable for the period ended 31 December 2025. As a result of this review the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the Standards and Interpretations issued, not yet applicable on the Group and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.
(d) Significant accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the financial statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied in the Group’s last annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2025, except for the impact of the new Standards and Interpretations effective 1 July 2025 as disclosed above.
3. SEGMENT INFORMATION
For management purposes, the Group is organised into one main business and geographic segment, which involves exploration of mineral deposits. All of the Group’s activities are interrelated, and discrete financial information is reported to the Board (Chief Operating Decision Makers) as a single segment. Accordingly, all significant operating decisions are based upon analysis of the Group as one segment. The financial results from the segment are equivalent to the financial statement of the Group as a whole.

11. SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS
(a) Options
During the half-year the Company issued the following unquoted Options to Directors and employees. A total
of $726,414 was recognised as a share-based payment.
| Class | Expiry date |
Exercise price |
Date granted |
Number of options |

| Unlisted Options |
9 Oct 2029 | $0.30 | 23 Oct 2025 | 7,100,000 | $0.10231 | 23 Oct 2025 |
The fair value of Options shown in the table above is calculated and recognised 100% upfront as at the date of grant. The fair value is not related to or indicative of the benefit (if any) that the individual Option recipients may actually receive.
The fair value of the Options was determined using Black-Scholes model, taking into account the exercise price, term of option, the share price at grant date and price volatility of the underlying share, expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. The following assumptions were used in the estimation:
-
Risk free interest rate of 3.6%
-
Company share price at date of grant of $0.19
-
Dividend Yield of 0%
-
Volatility of 85%
-
Option exercise price of $0.30
-
Option duration of 4 years
-
Discount factor of 0%
During the year ended 30 June 2024, the Company issued 1,000,000 unlisted options exercisable at $1.20, which expired on 26 October 2024, to Inyati Capital for corporate advisory fees at a value of $59,202. A previous issue to Inyati Capital of 974,615 unlisted options exercisable at $2.40 expired on 14 July 2024 at a value of $387,525.
For the period ended 31 December 2024, the total of the above, $446,727, was transferred from the sharebased payment reserve to accumulated losses.
For the period ended 31 December 2025, no options were issued and hence no transfers were made for corporate advisory fees.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT
To the Members of Galileo Mining Ltd
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
Conclusion
We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Galileo Mining Ltd (the “Company”) and its controlled entities (the “Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2025, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the halfyear ended on that date, selected explanatory notes, and the directors’ declaration, for the Group comprising the Company and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the half-year.
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the accompanying half-year financial report of Galileo Mining Ltd does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
-
(a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2025 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
-
(b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for Conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . Our responsibility is further described in the Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards ) (the “Code”) that are relevant to audits of the financial report of public interest entities in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
Responsibility of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
==> picture [362 x 98] intentionally omitted <==
32
==> picture [165 x 50] intentionally omitted <==
Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2025 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
