The Placement was strongly supported by a broad range of institutional investors, including leading local and international natural resources funds and existing shareholders. Importantly, new investors have endorsed Peel’s refreshed strategy and leadership team, focused on unlocking the significant latent value of its highquality copper and polymetallic assets in the Cobar Basin.
In parallel with the Placement, Peel has also facilitated a successful selldown of St Barbara Limited’s (ASX: SBM) 7.1% shareholding in Peel. The Company would like to extend its sincere thanks to St Barbara for its support since its initial investment and its coordinated approach towards the share selldown.
The Placement will be conducted in two tranches:
-
Tranche 1 comprising the issuance of 120m shares at $0.085 per share to raise $10.2m to be completed utilising the Company’s existing placement capacity; and,
-
Tranche 2 comprising the issuance of 71.2m shares at $0.085 per share to raise $6.05m to be completed subject to shareholder approval at the Annual General Meeting (“ AGM ”).
Tranche 2 includes a commitment from the Company’s Board of Directors & Management to subscribe for $1.05m, which is subject to shareholder approval to be sought at the upcoming AGM.
Euroz Hartleys Limited and Canaccord Genuity (Australia) Limited acted as Joint Lead Managers to the Placement. Sternship Advisers acted as co-manager to the Placement.

Board Appointment
Peel is pleased to advise that experienced resources executive Mr Tony Schultz has appointed as a NonExecutive Director of the Company. Mr Schulz’s appointment dovetails with the retirement of Mr Mark Okeby, who will be retiring at the upcoming Peel Annual General Meeting. The Board extends its thanks to Mr Okeby for his significant contribution to Peel.
Mr Schultz is an experienced leader in the energy and resources industry with a career spanning investment, finance, project management, contracting and engineering in Australia and the United States. He is the Founder and Managing Director of North Harbour Clean Energy, which is focussed on grid-scale energy storage and related opportunities.
Previously, Mr Schultz was Managing Director at Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co (KKR) in Sydney, where he had extensive involvement in investments, public and private capital raisings in equity and debt, business growth and improvement initiatives, and served on a number of boards. Prior to KKR, he held senior roles with EIG Global Energy Partners, TCW, Westpac, Halliburton, Duke Energy, KBR and Kinhill Engineers.
Strategic Focus
Peel’s new leadership team, together with its established and highly regarded technical team, will undertake a comprehensive review of the Company’s strategic asset base in the Cobar Basin. This includes its advanced, high-quality copper and polymetallic deposits and the exploration and growth potential across its large tenement holding.
Since inception, Peel has delineated a significant Mineral Resource totalling 22.9Mt @ 2.20% CuEq (for 500kt CuEq)[1] across five deposits and 2,764km² of tenure at its South Cobar Project. This strong resource base, together with Peel’s feasibility study work and secured land access, provides a solid platform to expand the resource and evaluate broader development options.
The Cobar Basin has recently attracted significant investment in exploration, mine development, processing upgrades and M&A activity, underlining its importance as one of Australia’s premier base metals regions. With multiple nearby operating mills, established supply chains and a skilled workforce, Peel’s assets are strategically located to benefit from regional consolidation and development opportunities.
The new Board and management team bring significant experience across project development, corporate finance and M&A, which, when coupled with its strong financial position, will allow Peel to pursue disciplined organic and inorganic growth opportunities in the Cobar region and other Tier-1 jurisdictions.

The new capital allows us to accelerate Peel’s portfolio review, exploration programs and disciplined growth strategy.
“I am very pleased that Tony Schultz has agreed to join the Board at this important stage in the Company’s evolution and I look forward to his guidance and contribution.
“Peel possesses the right skills, experience and capability within its senior leadership team and Board to unlock the significant latent value in our asset portfolio. This is an exciting time to be leading the Company through its next phase of growth and capital programs.

Complete details of the above Mineral Resource and associated Competent Persons Statements were published in ASX announcement dated 15 April 2025 titled “Significant resource upgrade at Wagga Tank”. Peel is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in that Mineral Resource, and that all assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates continue to apply and there have been no adverse material changes.
Copper Equivalent Calculation
Copper Equivalent (CuEq) grades were calculated from the combined estimates for each deposit zone on the basis of the metal prices and overall metallurgical recoveries shown in Table A. Recoveries are supported by metallurgical testwork for each of the deposits to date. It is the opinion of Peel Mining and the Competent Person that all the metals have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.
The Copper Equivalent calculation is as follows:
𝑪𝒖𝑬𝒒(%) = ∑(𝒕 ×𝑪𝒖% ×𝑪𝒖𝑷×𝑪𝒖𝑹𝒆𝒄÷𝟏𝟎𝟎)+ (𝒕 ×𝑷𝒃% ×𝑷𝒃𝑷×𝑷𝒃𝑹𝒆𝒄÷𝟏𝟎𝟎)+(𝒕 ×𝒁𝒏% ×𝒁𝒏𝑷×𝒁𝒏𝑹𝒆𝒄÷𝟏𝟎𝟎)+ (𝒕 ×𝑨𝒖𝒑𝒑𝒎×𝑨𝒖𝑷×𝑨𝒖𝑹𝒆𝒄÷𝟑𝟏.𝟏𝟎𝟑)+(𝒕 ×𝑨𝒈𝒑𝒑𝒎 ×𝑨𝒈𝑷×𝑨𝒖𝑹𝒆𝒄÷𝟑𝟏.𝟏𝟎𝟑) (∑𝒕) × 𝑨𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝑪𝒖 𝑹𝒆𝒄𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 ×𝑪𝒖𝑷÷𝟏𝟎𝟎
Where 𝑨𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝑪𝒖 𝑹𝒆𝒄𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚= ∑𝒕×𝑪𝒖%×𝑪𝒖𝑹𝒆𝒄∑𝒕×𝑪𝒖% and t = tonnes per deposit.
