Prospect’s Managing Director and CEO, Sam Hosack, commented:

“We are very pleased with the support demonstrated for our Mumbezhi advancement strategy through this equity raising. The strong demand for this issuance also firmly validates our belief in the long-term growth potential on offer across the broader Mumbezhi tenure, which covers two granted large-scale mining licenses. I would like to thank existing shareholders and new investors who participated in the placement for their backing.

“The raised funds allow us to both accelerate drilling and metallurgical test work during the next 18-24 months, as well as plan more confidently across the broader suite of project technical study activities set to be undertaken over that period. Our Phase 3 drilling programme is set to commence early in Q2 2026 and targeted to further grow and upgrade resources at the flagship Nyungu Central deposit, as well as test highly prospective regional exploration targets at Chipimpa, Sharamba, Nyungu South and Kamafamba. It is our view that there is no shortage of potential large-scale resource upside waiting to be unlocked at Mumbezhi.”

“Our collaboration with First Quantum Minerals continues to provide deep technical insight which we see adding significant value to the work programme to come at Mumbezhi.”

Mumbezhi Phase 3 drilling programme

Prospect plans to commence its Phase 3 drilling programme at Mumbezhi in Q2 2026. This programme is set to target further growth and then classification upgrade in the recently updated MRE for Mumbezhi totalling 173.8Mt @ 0.44% Cu for 771.9kt contained copper (refer Prospect ASX release dated 9 February 2026, Updated Mumbezhi MRE Delivers 63% Increase in Copper Resources ).

This work stream will be primarily directed towards the growth of the flagship Nyungu Central deposit along strike, where the Company also recently released maiden cobalt and gold MRE components, and includes an objective of growing these important by-product credits content within the deposit.

In addition to targeting MRE extension and upgrade at Nyungu Central, key regional targets defined at Chipimpa, Sharamba, Nyungu South and Kamafamba are also set to undergo systematic exploratory drilling as part of the Phase 3 programme and the Company is now well funded to aggressively follow up on exploration success. Specific diamond drill targeting of these prospects is set to be driven by a combination of airborne geophysical survey data and interpretation, detailed soil geochemistry, geological mapping and sampling, ground IP surveys and, where required, first-pass exploratory aircore and/or Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling.

About the Mumbezhi Copper Project

The Mumbezhi Copper Project (85% Prospect) ( Mumbezhi ) is situated in the world-class Central African Copperbelt region of north-western Zambia. Located on two granted Large Scale Mining Licences (39445-HQ-LML; 39465-HQ-LML), Mumbezhi covers approximately 356 square kilometres of highly prospective tenure which lies in close proximity to several major mines which are hosted in similar geological settings

Prospect’s Phase 1 drilling programme at Mumbezhi returned highly encouraging results, validating the growth potential of the significant endowment of copper mineralisation at Nyungu Central and delivering further confidence in a potential future large-scale, open pit mining development at Mumbezhi.

The Phase 2 drilling and exploration programmes began in mid-May and were completed in November 2025.

In February 2026, Prospect delivered an updated JORC-reportable Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource estimate for Mumbezhi of 173.8Mt @ 0.44% Cu (0.50% CuEq) for 772 kt of contained copper.

About Copper

Copper is a red-orange coloured metallic element in its pure form. It is highly conductive to heat and electricity, and is physically soft and malleable. Copper has been used for various purposes dating back at least 10,000 years. Today, it is mostly used by the electrical industry to make wires, cables, and other electronic components and is the key component. The metal is widely seen as a green-energy transition material, in part because of the wiring needed for electric cars. EVs can use up to 80kg of copper, four times the amount typically used in combustion engine vehicles.
