E X PL A N A T O R Y S T A T EM E N T

1.4 Use of funds raised under the Placement and the Future Placement

The Company recently completed a 29-hole, 2,272m drilling program at its Santa Anna Project as the key part of its due diligence in respect of its exclusive option to acquire the Santa Anna Project. Subject to positive outcomes from the drilling program, the Company plans to exercise the option and complete the acquisition of the Santa Anna Project.
The funds raised from the Placement will be primarily used to fund laboratory analysis of the remaining assays from the Company’s drilling program at the Santa Anna Project and for further targeted sampling and the subsequent assay results to finalise the Company’s technical due diligence over its option to acquire the Santa Anna Project.
Placement funds will also be used to fund costs of the Placement, provide working capital and for corporate and administrative costs.
2. RESOLUTION 1 AND 2 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF TRANCHE 1 PLACEMENT SHARES
2.1 General
These Resolutions seek Shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of an aggregate of 27,257,705 Shares at an issue price of $0.05 per Share to raise approximately $1,362,885, under Tranche 1 of the Placement as summarised in Section 1.1 above.
2.2 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A
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 securities it had on issue at the start of that 12 month period.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an Eligible Entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15%
6
limit by an extra 10% to 25%. The Company obtained this approval at its annual general meeting held on 29 November 2024.
The issue does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
2.3 Listing Rule 7.4
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, 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 equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
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 Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue.
2.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If these Resolutions are passed, the issue will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 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 the issue.
If these Resolutions are not passed, the issue will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
2.5 Technical information required by Listing Rules 7.4 and 7.5
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| Names of persons to whom Securities were issued or the basis on which those persons were identified/selected |
The Placement Participants who were identified through a bookbuild process, which involved Oakley Capital seeking expressions of interest to participate in the Placement from non-related parties of the Company. The Company confirms that no Material Persons were issued more than 1% of the issued capital of the Company. |
| Number and class of Securities issued |
27,257,705 Shares were issued on the following basis: (a) 12,927,534 Shares were issued under Listing Rule 7.1 (ratification of which is sought under Resolution 1); and (b) 14,330,171 Shares issued pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A (ratification of which is sought under Resolution 2). |
| Terms of Securities | The Shares were fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares. |
| Date(s) on or by which the Securities were issued |
4 August 2025. |

3. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL TO TRANCHE 2 PLACEMENT SHARES
3.1 General
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of up to 24,242,258 Shares to unrelated Placement Participants at an issue price of $0.05 per Share to raise up to approximately $1,212,113 under the Placement, summarised in Section 1.1 above.
3.2 Listing Rule 7.1
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.
The proposed issue falls within exception 17 of Listing Rule 7.2. Listing Rule 7.2 (exception 17) provides that if the issue of any securities requires prior shareholder approval, then such issue is not counted towards the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
3.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue and will raise an additional $1.2 million under the Placement which will be used in the manner set out in Section 1.4. In addition, the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue. If the Company is unable to proceed with the issue it will be unable to issue the Shares under Tranche 2 and as a consequence, will not raise an additional $1.2 million.
3.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| Names of persons to whom Securities will be issued or the basis on which those persons were or will be identified/selected |

A maximum of 24,242,258 Shares will be issued. |

The Company will not issue any Shares later than three months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). |

$0.05 per Share. |

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.
The proposed issue falls within exception 17 of Listing Rule 7.2. Listing Rule 7.2 (exception 17) provides that if the issue of any securities requires prior shareholder approval, then such issue is not counted towards the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
4.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue. In addition, the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue. If the Company is unable to proceed with the issue, it may be required to re-negotiate the terms of the Placement with the Placement Participants and Oakley Capital.

| Summary of material terms of agreement to issue |
The Placement Options were not issued under an agreement. |

5. RESOLUTION 5 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE PLACEMENT SECURITIES TO DIRECTOR – MENA HABIB
5.1 General
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of 500,000 Shares and 250,000 Placement Options to Mr Mena Habib (or his nominee(s)), to enable his participation in the Placement on the same terms as the unrelated Placement Participants.
5.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that for a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
-
(a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 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 issue constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Habib is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.
The Directors (other than Mr Habib who has a material personal interest in the Resolution) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue because the Securities will be issued to Mr Habib (or his nominee(s)) on the same terms as Securities issued to non-related party participants in the capital raising and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm’s length terms.
5.3 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:
-
10.11.1 a related party;
-
10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;
-
10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder 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;
-
10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or
10
-
10.11.5
-
a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,
unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.
The issue falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.
5.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and will raise an additional $25,000 under the Placement which will be used in the manner set out in Section 1.4. As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue and as a consequence, the Company will not be able to raise a further $25,000 under the Placement.
5.5 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 10.13
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| Name of the person to whom Securities will be issued |
Mr Mena Habib (or his nominee(s)) |
| Categorisation under Listing Rule 10.11 |
Mr Habib falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.11.1 as he is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director. Any nominee(s) of Mr Habib who receive Securities may constitute ‘associates’ for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.4. |

6. RESOLUTION 6 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE OPTIONS TO LEAD MANAGER
6.1 General
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of 25,000,000 Options to Oakley Capital in part consideration for lead manager services provided pursuant to the Placement, summarised in Section 1.1 above.

The proposed issue therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue. In addition, the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue. If the Company is unable to proceed with the issue, it may be required to re-negotiate the terms of the Lead Manager Mandate. As a consequence, the Company may be required to pay Oakley Capital a cash fee, reducing the cash reserves of the Company.
