All Shareholders are invited and encouraged to attend the Meeting or, if they are unable to attend in person, sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the instructions thereon.

  • (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).

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

  • (iv) 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;

  • (v) the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting;

Page 6

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

The Chair will attempt to respond to the questions during the Meeting. The Chair will request prior to a Shareholder asking a question that they identify themselves (including the entity name of their shareholding and the number of Shares they hold).

3. Resolution 1 – Ratification of Tranche 1 Placement Shares

3.1

General

On 2 August 2021, the Company announced that it had received firm commitments for a placement to raise approximately $5,000,000 (before costs) by the issue of approximately 125,000,000 Shares at $0.04 each ( Placement ). In addition, the Directors will participate for an additional 2,625,000 Shares at $0.04 each, subject to shareholder approval.

The Placement, including the Director participation, is comprised of the following three tranches:

  • (a) 44,116,163 Shares issued using the Company's placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 ( Tranche 1 Placement Shares );

  • (b) up to 80,883,825 Shares to be issued subject to the prior receipt of Shareholder approval under Resolution 2 ( Tranche 2 Placement Shares ); and

  • (c) up to 2,625,000 Shares to be issued to the Directors (or their respective nominees), subject to the prior receipt of Shareholder approval under Resolution 3(a),(b),(c) and (d) ( Director Placement Shares ).

On 6 August 2021, the Company issued the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

Page 7

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 to ratify the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

3.2

Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4

Broadly speaking, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the ability of a listed entity from issuing or agreeing to issue Equity Securities over a 12 month period which exceeds 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary Shares it had on issue at the start of the 12 month period.

The issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, effectively uses up part of the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. This reduces the Company's capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under that Listing Rule for the 12 month period following the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

Listing Rule 7.4 provides an exception to Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in a general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1), those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1.

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 1 will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1, without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 1 is passed, 44,116,163 Tranche 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 it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, 44,116,163 Tranche 1 Placement Shares will continue to be included in the Company's 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1 effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue or agree to issue without obtaining prior Shareholder approval, to the extent of 44,116,163 Equity Securities for the 12 month period following the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

3.3

Specific 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 the ratification of the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares:

  • (a) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued to institutional, sophisticated and professional investors who were identified through a bookbuild process, which involved the Lead Manager seeking expressions of interest to participate in the Placement from existing contacts of the Company and clients of the Lead Manager. None of the Placement participants are related parties of the Company. Of the Placement participants, the following party is a ‘material investor' as per ASX Guidance Note 21:

  • (i) Sisu International Pty Ltd, a substantial shareholder of the Company, who received 3,529,293 Shares.

  • (b) A total of 44,116,163 Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued.

Page 8

  • (c) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares are fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the Company's existing Shares on issue.

  • (d) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued on 6 August 2021.

  • (e) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued at $0.04 each.

  • (f) The proceeds from the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares have been or are intended to be used to:

  • (i) conduct exploration at the Company’s copper-gold projects in Utah, USA, specifically a diamond drilling program at the Detroit project; and

  • (ii) provide general working capital.

  • (g) There are no other material terms to the agreement for the subscription of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

  • (h) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

3.4 Additional information

Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

4. Resolution 2 – Approval of issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares

4.1 General

Refer to Section 3.1 above for the background to the Placement.

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares.

4.2 Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is in Section 3.2 above.

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 2 will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares and therefore not receive the $3,235,353 (before costs) committed by the placement participants for the Tranche 2 Placement Shares.

Page 9

4.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares:

  • (a) The Tranche 2 Placement Shares will be issued to institutional, sophisticated and professional investors, none of whom is a related party of the Company.

  • (i) Sisu International Pty Ltd, a substantial shareholder of the Company, who will receive 6,470,707 Shares.

  • (b) A maximum of 80,883,825 Tranche 2 Placement Shares will be issued.

  • (g) There are no other material terms to the agreement for the subscription of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares.

  • (h) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

4.4 Additional information

Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

5. Resolution 3 – Approval of issue of Director Placement Shares

5.1 General

The background to the proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares is in Section 3.1 above.

Resolution 3(a),(b),(c) and (d) seeks Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 for the proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares.

5.2 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 any of the following

Page 10

persons without the approval of its Shareholders:

  • (a) a related party (Listing Rule 10.11.1);

  • (b) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial holder (30%+) in the company (Listing Rule 10.11.2);

  • (c) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial holder (10%+) 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 (Listing Rule 10.11.3);

  • (d) an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3 (Listing Rule 10.11.4); or

  • (e) a person whose relation with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rule 10.11.1 or 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX's opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders (Listing Rule 10.11.5).

The Directors are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors. Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 is therefore required unless an exception applies. It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Director Placement Shares as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of the Director Placement Shares to the Directors (or their respective nominees), will not be included in the Company's 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 3(a),(b),(c) and (d) will be to allow the Company to issue the Director Placement Shares, raising a further $105,000 (before costs).

If Resolution 3(a),(b),(c) and (d) is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Placement Shares, and the Company will not receive the additional funds committed by the Directors. The Company considers that it has adequate working capital to achieve its stated objectives at this time and therefore does not intend to seek a further approval or raise further capital at this stage, if this Resolution is not passed.

5.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares:

  • (a) The Director Placement Shares will be issued to the Directors (or their respective nominees).

  • (b) The Directors falls into the category stipulated by Listing Rule 10.11.1 by virtue of being Directors of the Company.

  • (c) A maximum of 2,625,000 Director Placement Shares will be issued as follows:

  • (i) up to 1,000,000 Shares to Scott Caithness (or his nominees);

  • (ii) up to 500,000 Shares to Tom Eadie (or his nominees);

Page 11

  • (iii) up to 500,000 Shares to Bruno Hegner (or his nominees); and

  • (iv) up to 625,000 Shares to Peter Williams (or his nominees).

  • (d) The Director Placement Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the Company's existing Shares on issue.

  • (e) The Director Placement Shares will be issued no later than one month after the date of the Meeting.

  • (f) The Director Placement Shares are proposed to be issued at an issue price of $0.04 each, being the same price at which the Tranche 1 Placement Shares and the Tranche 2 Placement Shares were issued.

  • (g) Refer to Section 3.3(f) above for the proposed use of funds by the issue of the Director Placement Shares.

  • (h) The proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares are not intended to remunerate or incentivise the Directors.

  • (i) There are no other material terms to the proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares.

  • (j) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

5.4 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

In accordance with Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, in order to give a financial benefit to a related party, the Company must:

  • (a) obtain Shareholder approval in the manner set out in section 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 proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares constitutes giving a financial benefit to related parties of the Company.

The Board considers that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue of the Director Placement Shares because the Shares will be issued on the same terms as the Shares issued to non-related party participants in the Placement and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm's length terms.

5.5 Additional information

Resolution 3(a),(b),(c) and (d) is an ordinary resolution.

The Board declines to make a recommendation due to their personal interests in the outcome of this Resolution.
