All Resolutions will be decided by poll (rather than a show of hands). The poll will be conducted on votes submitted by proxy and at the Meeting by Shareholders who attend in accordance with the instructions below.

(a) Voting by proxy

A Proxy Form is attached to the Notice. This is to be used by Shareholders if they wish to appoint a representative (a 'proxy') to vote in their place. All Shareholders are invited to attend the Meeting or, if they are unable to attend, sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the instructions thereon. Lodgement of a Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting.

  • (ii) a proxy need not be a member of the Company; and

  • (b) Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote

Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does:

  • (i) the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e as directed);

  • (ii) if the proxy has two or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;

  • (iii) if the proxy is the Chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e as directed); and

  • (iv) if the proxy is not the Chair the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e as directed).

  • (c) Transfer of non-Chair proxy to Chair in certain circumstances

Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:

  • (i) an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the Company's members;

  • (ii) the appointed proxy is not the Chair of the meeting;

  • (iii) at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and

  • (iv) either the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting or the proxy does not vote on the resolution,

3. BACKGROUND TO THE PLACEMENT – RESOLUTIONS 1 TO 6

As announced to the ASX on 20 March 2026, the Company has undertaken a placement to raise approximately $4.6 million, before costs, through the issue of 165,610,003 Shares at an issue price of $0.028 per Share ( Placement ). The Company issued a total of 151,324,286 Shares on 27 March 2026, on the following basis:

  • (a) 60,000,000 Shares issued pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 ( 7.1 Placement Shares ); and

  • (b) 91,324,289 Shares issued pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A ( 7.1A Placement Shares ).

Directors Messrs John Terpu, Matthew Keane and Matthew Blake propose to participate in the Placement (on the same terms and conditions as the non-related party Placement participants) and be issued an aggregate of 14,285,718 Shares, which are the subject of Resolutions 3 to 5, as follows

  • (c) 11,071,429 Shares to be issued to John Terpu (or his nominee) – the subject of Resolution 3;

  • (d) 714,289 Shares to be issued to Matthew Keane (or his nominee) – the subject of Resolution 4;

  • (e) 2,500,000 Shares to be issued to Matthew Blake (or his nominee) – the subject of Resolution 5,

(together, the Director Placement Shares ).

Salient Corporate Pty Ltd (ACN 617 993 503) ( Salient Corporate ) and Morgans Corporate Limited (ACN 010 539 607) ( Morgans Corporate ) acted as joint lead managers to the Placement ( Joint Lead Managers ). Subject to Shareholder approval, the Company agreed to issue a total of 30,000,000

Page 7

options (exercisable at $0.05 and expiring two years from the date of issue) to the Joint Lead Managers or their respective nominees ( Broker Options ) in part consideration for their services.

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the 7.1 Placement Shares.

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the 7.1A Placement Shares.

Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) seek Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of the Director Placement Shares to Messrs Terpu, Blake and Keane (or their nominees) respectively.

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Broker Options to the Joint Lead Managers.

Resolutions 1 to 6 are not dependent on one another.

4. RESOLUTIONS 1 AND 2 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF PLACEMENT SHARES

4.1 Background

The background to Resolutions 1 and 2 is set out in section 3 of this Notice of Meeting.

The Company is seeking Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of:

  • (a) 60,000,000 7.1 Placement Shares pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4; and

  • (b) 91,324,289 7.1A Placement Shares pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4,

(together, the Placement Shares ).

The Placement Shares were issued without Shareholder approval, as announced to the ASX on 27 March 2026.

4.2 Regulatory requirements

Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A provide that, unless an exception applies, a company must not, without prior approval of shareholders, issue or agree to issue Equity Securities if the Equity Securities will in themselves or when aggregated with the Equity Securities issued by the company during the previous 12 months, exceed 25% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period (being 15% under Listing Rule 7.1 and 10% under Listing Rule 7.1A).

The issue of the Placement Shares do not fit within any of the exceptions and, as the issues have not yet been approved by Shareholders, they effectively use up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 and 10% limit in Listing Rule 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Placement Shares.

Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the issue of Equity Securities made without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1) or Listing Rule 7.1A (provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1A), those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

The Company confirms that in issuing the Placement Shares, the Company did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.1A, respectively.

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 Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

Accordingly, under Resolution 1, the Company seeks from Shareholders approval for, and ratification of, the issue of a total of 60,000,000 Shares under Listing Rule 7.4.

Under Resolution 2, the Company seeks from Shareholders approval for, and ratification of, a total of 91,324,289 Shares under Listing Rule 7.4.

If Resolution 1 is passed, the issue of the 7.1 Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the

Page 8

Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the 7.1 Placement Shares.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the issue of the 7.1 Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the 7.1 Placement Shares.

If Resolution 2 is passed, the issue of the 7.1A Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 10% limit in Listing Rule 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 issue of the 7.1A Placement Shares.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the issue of the 7.1A Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 10% limit in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the 7.1A Placement Shares.

4.3 Information required by Listing Rule 7.5

In accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the Company provides the following information in relation to the issue of the Placement Shares under Resolutions 1 and 2:

  • (a) Names of the persons to whom securities were issued The Placement Shares were issued to new institutional and sophisticated investors and existing shareholders identified through a book build process undertaken by the Joint Lead Managers of the Placement, or who were existing holders of the Company’s shares.

None of the sophisticated and professional investors are material investors in the Company.[1]

(b) Maximum number and class of securities issued The Company issued 60,000,000 Placement Shares under Listing Rule 7.1 and is seeking shareholder approval under Resolution 1.

The Company issued 91,324,289 Placement Shares under Listing Rule 7.1A and is seeking shareholder approval under Resolution 2.

  • (c) Material terms of the securities

The Placement Shares are fully paid ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares and rank equally in all respects with the existing Shares.

  • (d) Date of issue

The Placement Shares were issued on 27 March 2026.

  • (e) Issue price or consideration the entity received for the securities The issue price was $0.028 per Share.

(f) Purpose of the issue, including the intended use of the funds raised Funds raised from the Placement will be used to accelerate drilling programs at the Company’s Golden Boulder discovery, as well as advancing a pipeline of gold targets within the Company’s Duketon Gold Project.

  • (g) Relevant agreement

1 ASX consider the following to be material investors: (i). a related party of the entity;

(ii). a member of the entity’s key management personnel; (iii). a substantial holder in the entity;

(iv). an adviser to the entity; or

(v). an associate of any of the above, where such person or entity is being issued more than 1% of the entity’s current issued capital.

Page 9

The Placement Shares were not issued under an agreement.

(h) Voting exclusion statement

A voting exclusion statement for each of Resolutions 1 and 2 is included in the Notice of Meeting preceding this Explanatory Statement.

4.4 Board recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 1 and 2.

5. RESOLUTIONS 3 TO 5 – RELATED PARTY PARTICIPATION IN THE PLACEMENT

5.1 Background

Resolutions 3 to 5 seek approval to issue the Director Placement Shares to Messrs Terpu, Keane and Blake, or their respective nominees.

Resolutions 3 to 5 are not dependent on one another.

5.2 Section 195(4) Corporations Act

Four of the Directors have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 3 to 5 (as applicable to each Director) in this Notice of Meeting by virtue of the fact that Resolutions 3 to 5 are concerned with the issue of securities to those Directors.

Section 195 of the Corporations Act essentially provides that a director of a public company may not vote or be present during meetings of directors when matters in which that director holds a material personal interest are being considered, except in certain limited circumstances.

In the absence of Shareholder approval under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act, the Directors may not be able to form a quorum at Board meetings necessary to carry out the terms of these Resolutions.

The Directors accordingly seek Shareholder approval under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act.

5.3 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act regulates the provision of “financial benefits” to “related parties” by a public company. Chapter 2E prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the public company unless either: the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provisions or prior shareholder approval is obtained to the giving of the financial benefit.

A “related party” is widely defined under the Corporations Act, and includes the directors of the company and their immediate family. As such, Messrs Terpu, Keane and Blake (or their nominees) directors of the Company, are related parties of the Company for the purposes of section 208 of the Corporations Act.

A “financial benefit” is construed widely and in determining whether a financial benefit is being given, section 229 of the Corporations Act requires that any consideration that is given is disregarded, even if the consideration is adequate. It is necessary to look at the economic and commercial substance and the effect of the transaction in determining the financial benefit. Section 229 of the Corporations Act includes as an example of a financial benefit, the issuing of securities or the granting of an option to a related party.

Each issue of the Director Placement Shares to Messrs Terpu, Keane and Blake (or their nominees) under Resolutions 3 to 5 constitutes the provision of a financial benefit to a related party under section 228 of the Corporations Act by virtue of each issue being to Directors of the Company.

One of the nominated exceptions to the requirement to obtain shareholder approval under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is where the provision of the financial benefit is on terms that would be reasonable in the circumstances if the Company and the related party were dealing at arm’s length (or on terms less favourable than arm’s length).

Given Messrs Terpu, Blake and Keane (or their nominees) will be participating in the Placement on the same arm’s length terms as the parties who are not related parties of the Company, the Board is of the view that each issue of the Director Placement Shares, pursuant to Resolutions 3 to 5 respectively,

Page 10

constitutes the provision of a financial benefit on arm’s length terms, and accordingly that Shareholder approval under section 208 of the Corporations Act is not required.

5.4 Section 606 and 611 of the Corporations Act

Pursuant to section 606(1) of the Corporations Act, a person must not acquire a “relevant interest” in issued voting shares in a listed company if the person acquiring the interest does so through a transaction in relation to securities entered into by or on behalf of the person and because of the transaction, that person’s or someone else’s voting power in the company increases:

  • (a) from 20% or below to more than 20%; or

  • (b) from a starting point above 20% and below 90%,

( Takeover Prohibition ).

Section 611 of the Corporations Act provides exceptions to the Takeover Prohibition and Item 9 of the table in section 611 of the Corporations Act permits an acquisition if:

  • (a) throughout the six months before the acquisition, the shareholder has had voting rights in the company of at least 19%; and

  • (c) as a result of the acquisition, the shareholder would not increase their voting power in the company by more than 3% than they had in the six months before the acquisition,

( 3% Creep Exemption ).

The Company notes that:

  • (a) as at the date of this Notice of Meeting, Mr Terpu (together with his Associates) currently holds voting power of 18.64% in the Company;

  • (d) as at 10 December 2025, being six months prior to the proposed date of issue of Shares under Resolution 3, the Shares held by Mr Terpu (together with his associates) represented 21.45% of the total number of Shares on issue in the Company;

  • (e) the maximum relevant interest of Mr Terpu (together with his associates) to remain within the 3% Creep Exception would therefore be 24.47%; and

  • (f) assuming that Shareholders approve the issue of Shares to Mr Terpu under Resolution 3 (and assuming that Resolutions 4 and 5 are also passed), Mr Terpu (together with his Associates) will hold approximately 19.4% of the issued Shares in the Company on an undiluted basis, which represents a maximum increase in voting power of 0.76%.

Accordingly, the proposed issue of Shares to Mr Terpu (together with his Associates) under Resolution 3 falls within the 3% Creep Exemption, and accordingly does not require Shareholder approval under Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act.

5.5 Regulatory requirements: Listing Rules

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that, unless a specified exception applies, a company must not issue or agree to issue securities to any of the following, without the approval of ordinary shareholders:

  • (i) a related party;

  • (ii) a person who is, or was at any time in the six months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the entity;

  • (iii) person who is, or was at any time in the six months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the entity and who has nominated a director to the board of the entity pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;

  • (iv) an associate of a person referred to in items (i) to (iii) above; or

  • (v) a person whose relationship with the entity, or a person referred to items (i) to (iv) above is such that in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved its Shareholders.

A “related party”, for the purposes of the Listing Rules, has the meaning given to it in the Corporations Act, and includes the directors of a company and members of the directors’ immediate families.

Page 11

As such, Shareholder approval is sought under Listing Rule 10.11 as Resolutions 4 to 7 propose the issue of securities to Messrs Terpu, Keane and Blake (or their nominees) who are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.

As Shareholder approval under Resolutions 3 to 5 is being sought under Listing Rule 10.11, approval is not also required under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Shareholders approve any of Resolutions 3 to 5, as applicable to each Director, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Director Placement Shares under Resolutions 3 to 6, as applicable to each Director, to the relevant Director (or their nominee) the subject of the Resolution, on the terms and conditions as set out in this Notice of Meeting.

If Shareholders do not approve any of Resolutions 3 to 5, as applicable to each Director, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of Director Placement Shares under Resolutions 3 to 5, as applicable to each Director, to the relevant Director (or their nominee) the subject of the Resolution, on the terms and conditions as set out in this Notice of Meeting.

Resolutions 3 to 5 are not dependent on one another.

5.6 Information required by Listing Rule 10.13

In compliance with the information requirements of Listing Rule 10.13, Shareholders are advised of the following information in relation to Resolutions 3 to 6:

  • (a) Name of person to receive securities

  • (f) Issue price or other consideration

  • (g) Purpose of the issue, including the intended use of the funds raised

Funds raised from the Director Placement Shares will be used to accelerate drilling programs at the Company’s Golden Boulder discovery, as well as advancing a pipeline of gold targets within the Company’s Duketon Gold Project.

The purpose of the issue of the Director Placement Shares is not to remunerate or incentivise Messrs Terpu, Keane or Blake.

  • (h) Relevant agreement

Page 12

(i) Voting exclusion statement

A voting exclusion statement for Resolutions 3 to 5 is included in the Notice of Meeting preceding this Explanatory Statement.

5.7 Board recommendation

The Board has only considered the issue of the securities under Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) for the purposes of section 195(4) of the Corporations Act, given the fact the relevant Directors have a personal interest in the outcome of the Resolutions. For this reason, the Board declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders with respect to Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive).

6. RESOLUTION 6 – APPROVAL OF BROKER OPTIONS TO JOINT LEAD MANAGERS

6.1 Background

The purpose of Resolution 6 is to seek the approval of Shareholders for the issue of

  • (a) 16,088,760 Broker Options to Morgans Corporate; and

  • (b) 13,911,240 Broker Options to Salient Corporate,

in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1.

6.2 Regulatory requirements

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 shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The issue of the Broker Options does not fit within any of the exceptions and the Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

To this end, Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval of issue of the Broker Options.

If Resolution 6 is passed, the issue of the Broker Options will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Broker Options.

If Resolution 6 is not passed, the Broker Options will not be issued.

6.3 Information required by Listing Rule 7.5

  • (a) Names of the persons to whom the securities were issued

  • (b) Maximum number and class of securities issued

The Company issued a total of 30,000,000 Broker Options to the Joint Lead Managers under Listing Rule 7.1, as follows:

  • 2 ASX consider the following to be material investors:

  • (i). a related party of the entity;

  • (ii). a member of the entity’s Key Management Personnel; (iii). a substantial holder in the entity;

(iv). an adviser to the entity; or

(v). an Associate of any of the above, where such person or entity is being issued more than 1% of the entity’s current issued capital.

Page 13

The purpose of the issue of the Broker Options was as part consideration for lead management services provided by the Joint Lead Managers in connection with the Placement to the Company pursuant to the Joint Lead Manager Agreement.

7. RESOLUTION 7 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO SALIENT CORPORATE

7.1 Background

On 27 October 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with Salient Corporate for corporate advisory and capital raising services.

In consideration for the services to be provided by Salient Corporate, on 30 October 2025, the Company issued 30,000,000 Options to Salient Corporate with an exercise price of $0.04 per option expiring on 30 October 2028 ( Salient Options ).

The Salient Options were issued under the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity.

The purpose of Resolution 7 is to seek the approval of Shareholders to ratify the issue of the October Options.

7.2 Regulatory Requirements

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 shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to Listing Rule 7.1. It allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of Equity Securities after it has been made or agreed to be made (provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1). If a company receives shareholder approval, 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 Salient Securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The issue of the Salient Options did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 at the time of issue.

Page 14

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 7 is passed, the issue of the Salient Options will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue.

If Resolution 7 is not passed, the issue of the Salient Options will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue.

7.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 7:

  • (a) Names of the persons to whom the securities were issued The Salient Options were issued to Salient Corporate. Salient Corporate is not a material investor in the Company.[3]

APPOINTMENT OF PROXY

Voting 100% of your holding: Direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. If you do not mark a box your proxy may vote or abstain as they choose (to the extent permitted by law). If you mark more than one box on an item your vote will be invalid on that item.

Voting a portion of your holding: Indicate a portion of your voting rights by inserting the percentage or number of securities you wish to vote in the For, Against or Abstain box or boxes. The sum of the votes cast must not exceed your voting entitlement or 100%.

Appointing a second proxy: You are entitled to appoint up to two proxies to attend the meeting and vote on a poll. If you appoint two proxies you must specify the percentage of votes or number of securities for each proxy, otherwise each proxy may exercise half of the votes. When appointing a second proxy write both names and the percentage of votes or number of securities for each in Step 1 overleaf.
