ANNOUNCEMENT 3 November 2025

Norge Mineraler fails to complete the sale of the Skaland Graphite Project

This announcement does not lift the Company’s existing voluntary suspension

Mineral Commodities Ltd (“ MRC ” or “ the Company ”) (ASX: MRC) refers to its previous announcements of 29 December 2024, 15 April 2025, 15 May 2025, 30 May 2025, 10 June 2025, 9 July 2024 and 18 July 2025, regarding its wholly owned subsidiary MRC Graphite Norway Pty Ltd (“ MRCGN ”) entering into a binding, conditional share purchase agreement (“ SPA ”) with Norge Mineraler Holding AS (“ Norge Mineraler ”), for the sale of 100% of the shares in Skaland Graphite AS (“ Skaland ”) to Norge Mineraler (“ Transaction ”).

As announced previously, all conditions precedent to the SPA were satisfied on 17 March 2025 with completion and payment due 21 March 2025. As announced on 18 July 2025, the parties agreed completion of the Transaction would occur as soon as possible but no later than 12 noon Oslo time on 31 October 2025.

Norge Mineraler failure to complete

The Transaction did not complete as planned with Norge Mineraler advising MRC shortly before the agreed time, that they had failed to raise the necessary funds to complete on 31 October 2025 as required.

This is despite Norge Mineraler advising MRC in the lead up to the deadline that it was making good progress with its financing. On 30 October 2025, Norge Mineraler advised that documents were in the process of being signed by investors with funds expected to flow to Norge Mineraler in time for closure as planned.

Norge Mineraler in breach

As a result of this failure, Norge Mineraler is in material breach of the binding agreement announced on 8 July 2025. This follows prior breaches of the SPA.

MRC response

MRC is now reviewing its position and considering its options including, but not limited to taking legal action against Norge Mineraler. MRC is also considering action against Norge Mining Limited (UK based parent of Norge Mineraler) in relation to the parent guarantee issued by Norge Mining on 29 May 2025.

Skaland operations

Skaland remains 100% owned by MRCGN and is continuing production.
