1. DETAILS OF THE OFFER

1.1 The Offer

The Offer is an offer of up to 10,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.078 per Share to raise up to $780 (before expenses).

The Offer will only be extended to specific parties on invitation from the Directors. Application Forms will only be provided by the Company to these parties.

All Shares issued under the Offer will rank equally with existing Shares on issue. A summary of the rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares is set out in Section 4.1.

1.2

Purpose

At an extraordinary general meeting held on 24 December 2024, the Company obtained Shareholder approval for the issue of up to 150,000,000 Shares ( Placement Shares ) and 150,000,000 free-attaching unlisted Options ( Placement Options ) to sophisticated and/or professional investors selected by the Company ( Placement ). Refer to the Company’s notice of meeting released to ASX on 25 November 2024 for further details regarding the Placement.

On 14 March 2025, the Company announced that it has successfully completed the capital raising. Due to the length of time that the Company’s Securities have been suspended, the Company is unable to issue a cleansing notice under section 708A(5) of the Corporations Act.

Accordingly, the purpose of the Offer is not to raise funds. Instead, its purpose is to remove trading restrictions on Shares issued without disclosure under Part 6D of the Corporations Act before the Closing Date (including the Placement Shares).

Relevantly, section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act provides that a sale offer does not need disclosure to investors if:

  • (a) the relevant securities are in a class of securities of the company that are already quoted on the ASX;

  • (b)

  • a prospectus is lodged with ASIC either:

  • (i) on or after the day on which the relevant securities were issued; or

  • (ii) before the day on which the relevant securities are issued and offer of securities that have been made under the prospectus are still open for acceptance on the day on which the relevant securities were issued; and

  • (c) the prospectus is for an offer of securities issued by the company that are in the same class of securities as the relevant securities.

1.3 Underwriting

The Offer is not underwritten.

1.4 Minimum Subscription

There is no minimum subscription under the Offer.

1.7

ASX Listing

Application for Official Quotation of the Shares issued pursuant to this Prospectus will be made within 7 days after the date of this Prospectus. If approval is not obtained from ASX before the expiration of 3 months after the date of issue of the Prospectus (or such period as varied by the ASIC), the Company will not issue any Shares and will repay all Application monies for the Shares within the time prescribed under the Corporations Act, without interest.

The fact that ASX may grant Official Quotation to the Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Shares offered under this Prospectus.

1.8 Issue of Shares

The issue of Shares will take place in accordance with the timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus and otherwise in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules. Application monies will be held in a separate subscription account until issue. This account will be established and the application monies will be kept by the Company in trust for each Applicant. Any interest earned on the application monies will be for the benefit of the Company and will be retained by the Company irrespective of whether the issue takes place and each Applicant waives the right to claim any interest.

The Directors will determine the recipients of all Shares offered under this Prospectus. The Directors reserve the right to reject any application or to allocate any Applicant fewer Shares than the number applied for.

Where the number of Shares issued is less than the number applied for, the surplus monies will be returned by cheque as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. Where no issue is made, the amount tendered on application will be returned in full by cheque as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. Interest will not be paid on monies refunded.

1.9 CHESS and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company operates an electronic CHESS sub-register and an electronic issuer sponsored sub-register. These two sub-registers make up the Company’s register of

7

securities. The Company will not issue certificates to investors. Rather, holding statements (similar to bank statements) will be dispatched to investors as soon as practicable after issue.

Holding statements will be sent either by CHESS (for new investors who elect to hold their securities on the CHESS sub-register) or by the Company’s Share Registry (for new investors who elect to hold their securities on the Issuer sponsored sub-register). The statements will set out the number of Shares issued under the Prospectus and provide details of a Holder Identification Number (for new investors who elect to hold their securities on the Chess subregister) or Security holder Reference Number (for new investors who elect to hold their securities on the issuer sponsored sub-register). Updated holding statements will also be sent to each new investor following the month in which the balance of their holding of Shares changes, and also as required by the Listing Rules or the Corporations Act.

2. RISK FACTORS

2.1 Introduction

The Shares offered under this Prospectus should be considered speculative because of the nature of the Company’s business.

Whilst the Directors recommend that Shareholders take up their entitlement to the Shares, there are however numerous risk factors involved. Some of these risks can be mitigated by the use of safeguards and appropriate systems and controls, but some are outside the control of the Company and cannot be mitigated. Accordingly, an investment in the Company carries no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, return of capital or price at which the Shares will trade.

The following is a summary of the more material matters to be considered and should be read in conjunction with specific matters referred to in the Company’s announcements and reports. However, the summary is not exhaustive and potential investors should examine the contents of this Prospectus in its entirety and consult their professional advisors before deciding whether to apply for the Shares.

2.2

Company specific

(a) ASX Reinstatement to Quotation

The Company’s Securities have been suspended from Official Quotation since 30 October 2023, following a voluntary suspension requested by the Company with regards to the proposed Dixie Gold transaction (as announced to ASX on 5 January 2024). The Company subsequently announced the termination of the proposed Dixie Gold transaction on 5 March 2024 (ASX: 5 March 2024). However, as at the date of this Prospectus the Company’s Securities remain suspended from Official Quotation.

The lifting of the voluntary suspension is subject to ASX’s discretion and is subject to the satisfaction of certain reinstatement conditions imposed by ASX, as set out in the Company’s notice of meeting released to SX on 25 November 2024. Accordingly, the Company will remain in voluntary suspension until such conditions (if any) are satisfied. The Company will keep Shareholders informed of its suspension and proposed reinstatement to trading on ASX. Whilst the Board considers that it will be able to satisfy ASX’s requirements, there is the risk that the ASX exercises its discretion and refuses to lift the suspension on trading of the Company’s Securities or that the Company is not able to meet any requirements imposed by the ASX for reinstatement to trading of its Securities. If this occurs, the Company will remain in suspension.

(b) Limited operational history

The prospects of the Company must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of their development, particularly in the mineral exploration sector, which has a high level of inherent risk and uncertainty. No assurance can be given that the Company will achieve commercial viability through the successful exploration on, or mining development of, the Projects or any other mining assets it has an interest in. Until the Company is able to realise value from the Projects or such mining assets, it is likely to incur operational losses.

10

(c) Future capital requirements

The Company currently has no operating revenue and is unlikely to generate any operational revenue unless the Company’s Tenements are successfully developed and exploited. The future capital requirements of the Company will depend on many factors including its business development activities.

In addition, should the Company consider that its exploration results justify commencement of production on any of its Projects, additional funding will be required to implement the Company’s development plans, the quantum of which remain unknown at the date of this Prospectus. The Company may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing, joint ventures, production sharing arrangements or other means. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to Shareholders and may be undertaken at lower prices than the market price. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. There can be no assurance that additional finance will be available when needed.

Failure to obtain sufficient financing for the Company’s activities and future projects may result in delay and indefinite postponement of exploration, development, or production on the Company’s Projects or even loss of interest in the Projects.

(d) Title and grant risk

As at the date of this Prospectus, exploration licence applications ELA80/5630, ELA9784 and ELA24079 have not yet been granted and are at various stages of application. These applications must be granted to Kimberley before the Company can acquire 100% legal and beneficial interest in those tenements. There is a risk that the ELAs may not be granted in their entirety or only granted on conditions deemed unacceptable to the Company or that such grant will be delayed.

Exploration licence applications ELA9784 and ELA24079 are subject to ongoing negotiations with the Malngin Aboriginal Land Trust. The applications cannot be granted until the consent of the Malngin Aboriginal Land Trust is obtained or, failing consent, the Company is successful in arbitration under the relevant legislation.

(e) Reserve land and land access risk

The Company's interests in the Tenements are subject to Commonwealth and applicable state legislation and cannot be guaranteed. The Company may be required to obtain the consent of and/or compensate holders of third party interests which overlay areas within the Tenements. The Tenements overlap certain third party interest that may limit the Company's ability to conduct exploration activities including Crown land, pastoral lease and areas covered by native title determinations.

The land the subject of exploration licence E80/5353 and exploration licence application ELA80/5630 (upon grant) overlaps a Class "C" reserve for Regeneration of Eroded Areas in Ord River Catchment Area ( Reserve Land ).

Prior written consent of the Minister for Mines is required before undertaking any exploration activities on Reserve Land. The Minister for Mines must consult with and obtain the recommendation of the relevant State Minister (depending on the reserve purpose) and the responsible agency before granting consent. There is a risk the Company may not be able to access areas of the Ord Basin Project that overlap with the Reserve Land.

Any delays in respect of conflicting third-party rights, obtaining necessary consents, or compensation obligations, may adversely impact the Company's ability to carry out

11

exploration activities within the affected areas. However, the Company confirms that the Reserve Land will not impact the Company's exploration activities on E80/5353.

(f)

Nature of mineral exploration

Mineral exploration and development are considered a high-risk undertakings. There is no guarantee that exploration of the Projects will result in the discovery of an economically viable resource. Even if an apparently viable resource is discovered, there is no guarantee that the resource can be economically exploited.

Exploration on the Company’s Projects may be unsuccessful, resulting in a reduction of the value of those Projects, diminution in the cash reserves of the Company and possible relinquishment of such Projects.

No assurance can be given that the cost estimates and the underlying assumptions will be realised in practice. which may materially and adversely affect the Company’s ability to complete the exploration programs as planned.

(g) Resources estimates may be inaccurate

The Company has not published resource estimates for any prospects. There is no assurance that exploration or project studies by the Company will result in the definition of an economically viable mineral deposit.

Furthermore, resource estimates are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience, and industry practice. Estimates which were valid when originally calculated may alter significantly when new information or technologies become available. In addition, by their very nature, resource estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, which may prove to be inaccurate and require adjustment. As further information becomes available through additional fieldwork and analysis, the estimates are likely to change. This may result in alterations to development and mining plans which may, in turn, adversely affect the Company’s operations.

(h) Development risk

The business of exploration, project development and mining contains risks by its very nature. To prosper, it depends on the successful exploration or acquisition of reserves, design and construction of efficient production and processing facilities, competent operation and managerial performance and proficient marketing of the product. In particular, exploration is a speculative endeavour and force majeure circumstances, cost over runs and other unforeseen events can hamper mining operations.

(i)

Operational risk

The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including failure to locate or identify mineral deposits, failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining, operational and technical difficulties encountered in mining, difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment, mechanical failure or plant breakdown, unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

Even though the Directors have between them significant mineral exploration and operational experience, no assurance can be given that the Company will achieve commercial viability through the successful exploration and mining of its Tenements.

12

Until the Company is able to realise value from its Projects, it likely to incur ongoing operating losses.

(j)

Dilution risk

In the future, the Company may elect to issue Securities in connection with fundraisings, including to raise proceeds to fund further exploration of its Projects. While the Company will be subject to the constraints of the Listing Rules regarding the percentage of its capital it is able to issue within a 12 month period (other than where exceptions apply), Shareholders may be diluted as a result of such issues of Securities.

(k)

Metallurgy

Metal and/or mineral recoveries are dependent upon the metallurgical process that is required to liberate economic minerals and produce a saleable product and by nature contain elements of significant risk such as:

  • identifying a metallurgical process through test work to produce a saleable metal and/or concentrate;

  • developing an economic process route to produce a metal and/or concentrate; and

  • changes in mineralogy in the ore deposit can result in inconsistent metal recovery, affecting the economic viability of the project.

(l)

Liquidity risk

Certain Securities on issue in the Company are subject to ASX imposed escrow restrictions. During the period in which these Securities are prohibited from being transferred, trading in Securities may be less liquid which may impact on the ability of a Shareholder to dispose of their Securities in a timely manner. The Company will announce to ASX full details (including quantity and duration) of the Securities required to be held in escrow prior to the Securities commencing trading on ASX.

(m) Potential acquisitions

The Company may pursue and assess other new business opportunities in the resources sector. These new business opportunities may take the form of direct project acquisitions, joint ventures, farm-ins, tenement acquisitions and direct equity participation.

The acquisition of projects (whether completed or not) may require the payment of monies (as a deposit or exclusivity fee) after only limited due diligence or prior to the completion of comprehensive due diligence. There can be no guarantee that any proposed acquisition will be completed or be successful. If the proposed acquisition is not completed, monies advanced may not be recoverable, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company.

If an acquisition is completed, the Directors will need to reassess at that time, the funding allocated to current projects and new projects, which may result in the Company reallocating funds from other projects or raising additional capital (if available). Furthermore, notwithstanding that an acquisition may proceed upon the completion of due diligence, the usual risks associated with the new project activities will remain.

13

(n) Competition risk

The Company competes with other companies, including major mining companies in Australia and internationally. Some of these companies have greater financial resources than the Company and, as a result, may be in a better position to compete for future business opportunities. There can be no assurance that the Company can compete effectively with these Companies.

(o) Commodity price and exchange rate risk

If the Company achieves success leading to mineral production, the revenue it will derive through the sale of commodities may expose the potential income of the Company to commodity price and exchange rate risks. The price of base metals fluctuate and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company, such as industrial and retail supply and demand, exchange rates, inflation rates, changes in global economies, confidence in the global monetary system, forward sales of metals by producers and speculators as well as other global or regional political, social or economic events. Future serious price declines in the market values of minerals which the Company plans to explore for could cause the development of, and eventually the commercial production from, the Company's Projects to be rendered uneconomic.

Depending on the prices of commodities, the Company could be forced to discontinue production or development and may lose its interest in, or may be forced to sell, some of its properties. There is no assurance that, even as commercial quantities of base metals are produced, a profitable market will exist for it.

Furthermore, international prices of various commodities are denominated in United States dollars, whereas the income and expenditure of the Company are and will be taken into account in Australian currency, exposing the Company to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between the United States dollar and the Australian dollar as determined in international markets.

(p)

Environmental risk

The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to State and Federal laws and regulations concerning the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company’s activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. It is the Company’s intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.

Mining operations have inherent risks and liabilities associated with safety and damage to the environment and the disposal of waste products occurring as a result of mineral exploration and production. The occurrence of any such safety or environmental incident could delay production or increase production costs. Natural events, such as unpredictable rainfall or bushfires may impact on the Company’s ongoing compliance with environmental legislation, regulations and licences.

Significant liabilities could be imposed on the Company for damages, clean-up costs or penalties in the event of certain discharges into the environment, environmental damage caused by previous operations or noncompliance with environmental laws or regulations.

The disposal of mining and process waste and mine water discharge are under constant legislative scrutiny and regulation. There is a risk that environmental laws and regulations become more onerous making the Company’s operations more

14

expensive. Approvals are required for land clearing and for ground disturbing activities. Delays in obtaining such approvals can result in the delay to anticipated exploration programs or mining activities.

Furthermore, under the Mining Rehabilitation Fund Act 2012 (WA), the Company is required to provide assessment information to the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety in respect of a mining rehabilitation levy payable for mining tenements granted under the Mining Act. The Company is required to contribute annually to the mining rehabilitation fund if its rehabilitation liability is above $50,000.

(q) Tenure risk

The Company’s Tenements are subject to the applicable mining acts and regulations in Western Australia, pursuant to which mining, and exploration tenements are subject to periodic renewal. The renewal of the term of a granted tenement is also subject to the discretion of the relevant Minister. There is no guarantee that current or future tenements or future applications for production tenements will be approved. Renewal conditions may include increased expenditure and work commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the tenements comprising the Company’s Projects. The imposition of new conditions or the inability to meet those conditions may adversely affect the operations, financial position or performance of the Company.

There can be no guarantee that a renewal will be approved. If the Company is unable to secure a renewal for these Tenements this may impact the Company’s exploration plans for the Projects and may adversely impact the Company or the value of its Shares.

Prior to any development on any of its properties, the Company must receive licences from appropriate governmental authorities. There is no certainty that the Group will hold all licences necessary to develop or continue operating at any particular property.

The Company considers the likelihood of tenure forfeiture to be low given the laws and regulations governing exploration in Western Australia and the ongoing expenditure being budgeted by the Company. However, the consequences of forfeiture or involuntary surrender of a granted tenement for reasons beyond the control of the Company could be significant.

Similarly, the rights to mining tenure carry with them various obligations which the holder is required to comply with in order to ensure the continued good standing of the licence and, specifically, obligations in regard to minimum expenditure levels and responsibilities in respect of the environment and safety. Failure to observe these requirements could prejudice the right to maintain title to a given area and result in government action to forfeit a licence or licences. There is no guarantee that current or future exploration applications or existing licence renewals will be granted, that they will be granted without undue delay, or that the Company can economically comply with any conditions imposed on any granted exploration permits.

The Tenements may be relinquished either in total or in part even though a viable mineral deposit may be present, in the event that:

  • exploration or production programs yield negative results;

  • insufficient funding is available;

  • such a tenement is considered by the Company to not meet the risk/reward or other criteria of the Company;

  • its relative perceived prospectivity is less than that of other tenements in the Company’s portfolio, which take a higher priority; or

15

▪ a variety of other reasons.

Further, a number of the Tenements are pending applications. There is a risk that the applications for Tenements may not be granted in their entirety or only granted on conditions unacceptable to the Company.

(r) Native title and Aboriginal heritage

In relation to the Tenements or any tenements that the Company may in the future acquire an interest in, there may be areas over which legitimate common law Native Title rights may exist. If such Native Title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to such tenements (through obtaining consent of any relevant native title holders) or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phase of operations may be adversely affected.

As at the date of this Prospectus, a number of the Tenements are subject to Native Title determinations and others are subject to Native Title claims. See the Solicitor's Report on Mining Tenements in the Company’s IPO Prospectus for further details.

The grant of any future tenure to the Company over areas that are covered by registered claims or determinations will require engagement with the relevant claimants or native title holders (as relevant) in accordance with the Native Title Act.

In addition, determined native title holders may seek compensation under the Native Title Act for the impacts of acts affecting native title rights and interests after the commencement of the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 (Cth) on 31 October 1975.

The State of Western Australia has passed liability for compensation for the impact of the grant of mining tenements under the Mining Act onto mining tenement holders pursuant to section 125A of the Mining Act. Outstanding compensation liability will lie with the current holder of the Tenements at the time of any award of compensation pursuant to section 125A of the Mining Act or, in the event there is no holder at that time, the immediate past holder of the relevant Tenements.

Compensation liability may be determined by the Federal Court or settled by agreement with native title holders, including through ILUAs (which have statutory force) and common law agreements (which do not have statutory force). At this stage, the Company is not able to quantify any potential compensation payments, if any.

In addition, the Company must comply with Aboriginal heritage legislation requirements which include the requirement to conduct heritage survey work prior to the commencement of operations.

The Company is aware of various areas of indigenous significance and Aboriginal heritage sites of considerable cultural value both to the local indigenous communities and the broader community generally which affect a number of Tenements. See the Solicitor's Report on Mining Tenements in the Company’s IPO Prospectus for further information. It is also likely that additional Aboriginal sites may be identified on the land the subject of the Tenements.

These Aboriginal heritage sites require the Company to comply with all relevant the Aboriginal Heritage Acts in respect of any ground disturbing activities and any applicable agreements that may be in place with the relevant Traditional Owners. Prior to commencing significant ground disturbing activities, including exploration, the Company will need to consult with local the relevant Traditional Owners regarding the likely impact that the proposed activities may have on such areas. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to deal with Aboriginal heritage issues in a

16

satisfactory or timely manner and accordingly such issues may increase the proposed time periods for the conduct of the Company’s proposed activities, lead to increased costs for such activities (in obtaining the required consents and/or approvals) and also limit the Company’s ability to conduct its proposed activities on the relevant Tenement.

As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company is party to heritage agreements with the Malarngowem, Purnululu, Yurriyangem Taam and Upurli Upurli native title groups.

The Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Bill 2021 (WA), which proposes to replace the current Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA), has been introduced into the parliament of Western Australia. The introduction of new legislation, amendments to existing legislation and the decisions of courts which impose constraints or more stringent requirements on the Company could adversely impact the assets, operations, and financial performance of the Company, either directly or indirectly.

(s)

Crown land and pastoral lease risk

The land covered by the Tenements overlaps with Crown land, including pastoral leases. If mining on any of the Tenements is contemplated in the future, the Company may need to consider entering into a compensation and access agreement with the lease holders to ensure the requirements of the Mining Act are satisfied and to avoid any disputes arising. As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company has not entered into Land Access Agreements with respect to certain Tenements subject to pastoral leases. In the absence of an agreement, the Warden’s Court determines compensation payable to leaseholders that may be undertaken in the future. The entry into these agreements may delay the undertaking of activities, including the development of any future mines, and may restrict the areas within which the Company can explore for mineral development.

(t)

Sovereign risk

Adverse changes in government policies or legislation may affect ownership of mineral interests, taxation, royalties, land access, labour relations, and mining and exploration activities of the Company. It is possible that the current system of exploration and mine permitting in Western Australia may change, resulting in impairment of rights and possible expropriation of the Company’s properties without adequate compensation. If the Company was to extend its activities into jurisdictions other than Western Australia and Australia in the future, the risks described in this paragraph may be considerably increased.

(u) Climate change risk

There are several climate-related factors that may affect the operations and proposed activities of the Company. One of the climate change risks particularly attributable to the Company is the emergence of new or expanded regulations associated with the transitioning to a lower-carbon economy and market changes related to climate change mitigation. The Company may be impacted by changes to local or international compliance regulations related to climate change mitigation efforts, or by specific taxation or penalties for carbon emissions or environmental damage. These examples sit amongst an array of possible restraints on industry that may further impact the Company and its potential future profitability. While the Company will endeavour to manage these risks and limit any consequential impacts, there can be no guarantee that the Company will not be impacted by these occurrences.

Furthermore, climate change may cause certain physical and environmental risks that cannot be predicted by the Company, including events such as increased severity of

17

weather patterns and incidence of extreme weather events and longer-term physical risks such as shifting climate patterns. All these risks associated with climate change may significantly change the industry in which the Company operates.

(v) Equipment availability

The Company’s ability to undertake mining and exploration activities is dependent upon its ability to source appropriate contractors with access to relevant drilling and other exploration and mining equipment. Equipment is not always available and the market for exploration and mining equipment experiences fluctuations in supply and demand. If the Company is unable to source appropriate equipment economically or at all then this would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial or trading position.

(w) Third party contractor risk

It is the Company’s intention to outsource a substantial part of its exploration activities to third party contractors. The Company is unable to predict the risk of insolvency or managerial failure of any of the third party contractors used by the Company in any of its activities or the insolvency or other managerial failure by any of the other service providers used by the Company for any activity. The effects of such failures may have an adverse effect on the Company’s activities

(x) Reliance on key personnel

Recruiting and retaining qualified personnel are important to the Company’s success. The number of persons skilled in the exploration and development of mining properties is limited and competition for such persons is strong. There can be no assurance that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if such persons employed by the Company from time to time cease their employment with the Company.

(y) Insurance risk

The Company intends to insure its operations in accordance with industry practice. In certain circumstances, the Company’s insurance may not be of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of the Company.

Insurance against all risks associated with mineral exploration and production is not always available and where available the costs can be prohibitive.

(z) Unforeseen expenses

The Company's cost estimates, and financial forecasts include appropriate provisions for material risks and uncertainties and are considered to be fit for purpose for the proposed activities of the Company. If risks and uncertainties prove to be greater than expected, or if new currently unforeseen material risks and uncertainties arise, the expenditure proposals of the Company are likely to be adversely affected.

2.3 General Risks

The future prospects of the Company’s business may be affected by circumstances and external factors beyond the Company’s control. Financial performance of the Company may be affected by a number of business risks that apply to companies generally and may include economic, financial, market or regulatory conditions.

18

(a) Economy Risk

General economic conditions, introduction of tax reform, new legislation, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s exploration, development and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities

(b)

Market conditions

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted Securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • general economic outlook;

  • introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;

  • interest rates and inflation rates;

  • changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • the demand for, and supply of, capital;

  • fear of global pandemics; and

  • terrorism or other hostilities

The market price of Securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general. Neither the Company or its Directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return on an investment in the Company.

(c)

Force majeure

Events may occur within or outside the markets in which the Company operates that could impact upon the global and Australian economies, the operations of the Company and the market price of its Securities. These events include acts of terrorism, outbreaks of international hostilities, fires, pandemics, floods, earthquakes, labour strikes, civil wars, natural disasters, outbreaks of disease, and other man-made or natural events or occurrences that can have an adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s services and its ability to conduct business. Given the Company has only a limited ability to insure against some of these risks, its business, financial performance and operations may be materially adversely affected if any of the events described above occurs.

(d) Government and regulatory risk

The Company’s operating activities are subject to extensive laws and regulations relating to numerous matters including resource licence consent, environmental compliance and rehabilitation, taxation, employee relations, health and worker safety, waste disposal, protection of the environment, native title and heritage matters, protection of endangered and protected species and other matters. The Company requires permits from regulatory authorities and stakeholders to authorise the Company’s operations. These permits relate to exploration, development, production and rehabilitation activities. While the Company believes that it is in substantial compliance with all material current laws and regulations affecting its activities, future changes in applicable laws, regulations, agreements or changes in their enforcement or regulatory interpretation could result in changes in legal requirements or in the terms of existing permits and agreements applicable to the Company or its properties,

19

which could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s current operations or planned development projects.

Obtaining necessary permits can be a time-consuming process and there is a risk that the Company will not obtain required permits on acceptable terms, in a timely manner or at all. The costs and delays associated with obtaining permits and complying with these permits and applicable laws and regulations could materially delay or restrict the Company from proceeding with the development of a Project or the operation or development of a mine. Any failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations or permits, even if inadvertent, could result in material fines, penalties or other liabilities. In extreme cases, failure could result in suspension of the Company’s activities or forfeiture of one or more of the Tenements.

Under the Mining Act, a tenement holder must apply for and be granted a Programme of Work ( POW ) approval before conducting any ground disturbing activities with mechanised equipment. A POW approval is considered to be in the ordinary course, and the Company has been granted POW approval for its intended exploration activities.

In addition, the Company’s capacity to undertake future mining operations may be affected by various factors such as:

  • potential inability to obtain necessary consents and approvals to mine;

  • delay to obtaining necessary consents and approvals to mine;

  • increased costs in obtaining necessary consents and approvals to mine; and

  • limited ground available for mining due to access restrictions and limitations.

(e) Litigation risk

The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks including native title claims, tenure disputes, environmental claims, occupational health and safety claims and employee claims. Further, the Company may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation. Any such claim or dispute, particularly if proven, may impact adversely on the Company's operations, financial performance and financial position. As at the Prospectus Date, there are no legal proceedings affecting the Company and the Directors are not aware of any legal proceedings pending or threatened against or affecting the Company.

(f) Taxation

The acquisition and disposal of Securities will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring Securities from a taxation point of view and generally. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisers accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of applying for Securities under this Prospectus.

2.4 Speculative Investment

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the Shares offered under this Prospectus.

20

The Shares offered under this Prospectus carry no guarantee in respect of value, profitability, dividends, return of capital or the price at which the Shares (subject to satisfying ASX of the quotation requirements set out in Chapter 2 of the ASX Listing Rules) may trade on the ASX.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Shares pursuant to this Prospectus.

4. RIGHTS ATTACHING TO SHARES

4.1 Shares

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to Shares offered under this Prospectus. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are set out in the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

(a)

General meetings

Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company.

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with Section 249D of the Corporations Act.

(b)

Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of Shares, at general meetings of Shareholders or classes of Shareholders:

  • (i) each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative or if a determination has been made, by direct vote;

  • (ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder has one vote (even though he or she may represent more than one member); and

  • (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder shall (or where a Direct Vote has been lodged), in respect of each fully paid Share held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for the Share, but in respect of partly paid Shares, shall have such number of votes being equivalent to the proportion which the amount paid (not credited) is of the total amounts paid and payable in respect of those Shares (excluding amounts credited).

(c)

Dividend rights

Subject to and in accordance with the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules, the rights of any preference Shareholders and to the rights of the holders of any shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividend, the Directors may from time to time declare a dividend to be paid to the Shareholders entitled to the dividend which shall be payable on all Shares according to the proportion that the amount paid (not credited) is of the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) in respect of such Shares. The Directors may rescind a decision to pay a dividend if they decide, before the payment date, that the Company’s financial position no longer justifies the payment. No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company.

The Directors may resolve to capitalise any sum, being the whole or a part of the amount for the time being standing to the credit of any reserve account or the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution to Shareholders; and may, but

24

need not, resolve to apply the sum in any of the ways mentioned in clause 4.10 of the Constitution, for the benefit of Shareholders in the proportions to which those Shareholders would have been entitled in a distribution of that sum by way of dividend.

Subject to the Listing Rules, the Directors may grant to Shareholders or any class of Shareholders the right to elect to reinvest cash dividends paid by the Company by subscribing for shares in the Company on such terms and conditions as the Directors think fit.

(d) Restricted Securities

The Company shall comply in all respects with the requirements of the Listing Rules with respect to Restricted Securities.

Without limiting the generality of the above:

  • (i) a holder of Restricted Securities must not Dispose of, or agree or offer to Dispose of, the Securities during the escrow period applicable to those Securities except as permitted by the Listing Rules or the ASX;

  • (ii) if the Restricted Securities are in the same class as quoted Securities, the holder will be taken to have agreed in writing that the Restricted Securities are to be kept on the Company’s issuer sponsored subregister and are to have a Holding Lock applied for the duration of the escrow period applicable to those Securities;

  • (iii) the Company will refuse to acknowledge any Disposal (including, without limitation, to register any transfer) of Restricted Securities during the escrow period applicable to those Securities except as permitted by the Listing Rules or the ASX;

  • (iv) a holder of Restricted Securities will not be entitled to participate in any return of capital on those Securities during the escrow period applicable to those Securities except as permitted by the Listing Rules or the ASX; and

  • (v) if a holder of Restricted Securities breaches a Restriction Deed or a provision of this Constitution restricting a Disposal of those Securities, the holder will not be entitled to any dividend or distribution, or to exercise any voting rights, in respect of those Securities for so long as the breach continues.

(e)

Winding-up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, divide among the shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any Shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

(f)

Shareholder liability

As the Shares under the Prospectus are fully paid shares, they are not subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

25

(g) Transfer of Shares

Subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act or the ASX Listing Rules, the Shares are freely transferable.

(h) Variation of rights

Pursuant to Section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to Shares.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of Shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(i)

Alteration of Constitution

The Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. In addition, at least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

26

5. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

5.1 Company Update

Details of the Company’s current activities are set out in the announcements made by the Company to the ASX and are available from the ASX, or the Company’s website at https://omniametals.com.au/.

The Company’s Securities have been suspended from Official Quotation on ASX since 30 October 2023, following a voluntary suspension requested by the Company. The suspension was requested in regards to the Company’s proposed transaction with Dixie Gold (as announced to ASX on 5 January 2024). The Company has since announced termination of the proposed Dixie Gold transaction (ASX: 5 March 2024). As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company’s Securities remain suspended from Official Quotation. The lifting of the voluntary suspension is subject to ASX’s discretion and the satisfaction of certain reinstatement conditions imposed by ASX. Accordingly, the Company will remain in voluntary suspension until such conditions are satisfied. The Company will keep Shareholders informed of its suspension and proposed reinstatement to trading on ASX.

5.2

Nature of this Prospectus

The Shares to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus are continuously quoted securities. This Prospectus is issued under the special prospectus content rules for continuously quoted securities in section 713 of the Corporations Act. This enables listed disclosing entities, such as the Company, to issue a prospectus for continuously quoted securities with modified disclosure requirements if they satisfy certain requirements.

The information in this Prospectus principally concerns the terms and conditions of the Offer and the information reasonably necessary to make an informed assessment of:

  • (a) the effect of the Offer on the Company; and

  • (b) the rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus.

The Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore also have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest in the Company.

5.3

Continuous Reporting and Disclosure Obligations

As the Company is admitted to the official list of ASX, the Company is a “disclosing entity” for the purposes of the Corporations Act. As such, it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose to the market any information it has which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company’s securities.

Price sensitive information is publicly released through ASX before it is disclosed to Shareholders and market participants. Distribution of other information to Shareholders and market participants is also managed through disclosure to ASX. In addition, the Company posts information on its website after the ASX confirms an announcement has been made, with the aim of making the information readily accessible to the widest audience.

27

Investors are encouraged to check and monitor any further announcements made by the Company to ASX prior to securities being issued under the Offer. To do so, please refer to the Company’s ASX announcements platform via www.asx.com.au.

By virtue of section 713 of the Corporations Act, the Company is entitled to issue a “transaction-specific” prospectus in respect of the Offer.

In general terms, a “transaction-specific prospectus” is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on the Company and the rights and liabilities attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position and performance, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

As a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act, the Company states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with ASIC in relation to the Company may be obtained from, or inspected at, an office of ASIC; and

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:

  • (i) the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2024;

  • (ii) any half-year financial report of the Company lodged with ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to above and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC; and

  • (iii) all continuous disclosure notices given by the Company after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to above and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC (see below).

There is no information which has been excluded from a continuous disclosure notice in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules that investors or their professional advisers:

  • (a) would reasonably require for the purpose of making an informed assessment of:

  • (i) the assets and liabilities, financial position and performance, profits and losses and prospects of the Company; and

  • (ii) the rights and liabilities attaching to the securities the subject of this Prospectus; and

  • (b) would reasonably expect to find in this Prospectus.

This Prospectus contains information specific to the Offer. If investors require further information in relation to the Company, they are recommended to take advantage of the opportunity to inspect or obtain copies of the documents referred to above.

The following announcements have been lodged with ASX in respect of the Company since the Company lodged its annual financial report for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 on 22 August 2024.
