A proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company.
A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting can appoint a proxy and should specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If no proportion or

number is specified, the proxy may exercise all of the Shareholder’s votes.

Shares represented by the proxy will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions of the Shareholder on any ballot that may be called for, and, if the Shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the Shares will be voted accordingly. Where no choice has been specified by the Shareholder, or if both choices have been specified, such Shares will be voted in favour of the matters identified in the Notice.
A Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by an instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or by the Shareholder’s attorney authorised in writing, and delivered to Computershare Investor Services Pty Ltd, not less than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays) before the Meeting or any adjournment of the Meeting, or to the chair of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting.

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM AND RESOLUTIONS
Purpose of approval
The Company is now seeking Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of the Tranche 1 Shares under the Private Placement for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4.
ITEM 1 TO RECEIVE THE CONSOLIDATED AUDITED ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE COMPANY FOR THE ENSUING YEAR
Background
The financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the Auditor’s Report thereon accompanying the Meeting materials will be placed before the Shareholders at the Meeting for their consideration. The Company’s auditor, BDO Audit Pty Ltd., will be present at the meeting and Shareholders will have an opportunity to ask the auditor questions in relation to the conduct of the audit, the Auditor’s Report, the Company’s accounting policies, and the independence of the auditor. The auditor will also respond to any written questions provided these are submitted to the Company no later than five business days prior to the Meeting. There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve the Company’s financial statements and Auditor’s Report.
ITEM 2 APPROVAL OF APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS AND TO AUTHORISE THE DIRECTORS TO FIX THE AUDITOR’S REMUNERATION
Background
The management of the Company recommends the appointment of BDO Audit Pty Ltd., Chartered Accountants, as auditor of the Company for the ensuing year, and to authorise the directors of the Company ( Directors ) to fix their remuneration. BDO Audit Pty Ltd. has been the auditor of the Company since its incorporation on 27 December 2012.
Resolution
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve an ordinary resolution approving the appointment of the auditor. The text of the resolution is as follows:
“Be it resolved as an ordinary resolution that BDO Audit Pty Ltd. be and is appointed as auditor of the Company for the ensuing year, and the Directors be and are authorised to fix their remuneration.”
Board Recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Item 2.
The Chair intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Item 2.
ITEM 3 RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF SHARES ISSUED UNDER ASX LISTING RULE 7.1
Background – Private Placement
On 31 March 2025, the Company announced it intended to issue approximately 783 million Shares at A$0.025 per Share in two tranches to sophisticated and professional investors to raise approximately A$19.5 million (US$12.3 million) ( Private Placement ). On 9 April 2025, the Company issued 169,297,750 Shares at an issue price of A$0.025 per Share pursuant to Tranche 1 of the Private Placement ( Tranche 1 Shares ), using the Company's 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (the subject of this Item 3).
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that the Company can issue without the approval of its Shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the Shares it had on issue at the start of that period.
The issue of the Tranche 1 Shares the subject of this Item 3 does not fit within any of these exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by the Company’s Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date the Company issued the relevant Tranche 1 Shares.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 allows an issue made by the Company (without shareholder approval) to be treated as having been made with approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1, provided that:
-
it is subsequently ratified by Shareholders at a general meeting; and
-
the issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1 at the time it was made.
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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
If Item 3 is passed, the issue of Tranche 1 Shares under the Private Placement are taken to have been approved under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and so do not reduce the Company’s 15% capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under that rule.
The Board will only undertake further issues of equity securities if they consider it is in the best interests of the Company to do so.
If Item 3 is not passed, the issue of the 169,297,750 Tranche 1 Shares under the Private Placement will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% capacity in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date the Company issued those Tranche 1 Shares.
CDIs
Shares in the Company cannot be traded on ASX given they are foreign securities. Therefore, all Shares that have been, or will be, issued in respect of the Private Placement will be represented in the form of CDIs.
A CDI is a financial product quoted on ASX. A CDI represents an interest in an underlying Share in the Company. This allows investors to trade interests in Shares in the Company by trading the relevant CDIs on ASX. Each CDI represents one Share and confers a beneficial interest in that Share. CDIs are held by CDN on behalf of the holders of CDIs. CDIs are quoted and traded on ASX in Australian dollars. They will not be listed or traded on TSX.
The rights attaching to CDIs are economically equivalent to the rights attaching to Shares, and the Company will generally be required to treat holders of CDIs as if they were the holders of the Shares represented by those CDIs. This means that economic benefits such as dividends, bonus issues and rights issues will generally flow through to holders of CDIs as if they were the registered holders of the underlying Shares.

- Securities 169,297,750 Tranche 1 Shares held indirectly issued by allottees as CDIs.
About the Projects
Detailed geological descriptions of the Company’s projects are included in the Company’s December 2024 quarterly report which is available on the Company’s website, ASX platform (ASX:RTG) and the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca. The Company is currently engaged in three key projects:
-
Mabilo Project – the Company has a 40% interest in Mt. Labo Exploration and Development Corporation ( Mt. Labo ), which owns the high-grade gold/copper/magnetite Mabilo Project in the Eastern Luzon, Philippines.
-
Mt. Labo has secured the Mining Permit, the successful Final Award in the SIAC matter, won the Setting Aside action of Galeo Equipment Corporation (“Galeo”) in Singapore and executed a binding term sheet with Glencore International AG for the debt finance and offtake to fund 100% of the planned capital expenditure for the development of Stage 1, the Direct Shipping Operation. With the acceptance of the term sheet, Mt. Labo will progress to finalisation of long-form documentation. The initial focus will be the finalisation of land acquisition, drawing on Tranche 1 of the facility and then securing any necessary tree cutting permits. Following completion of these two key steps, Mt. Labo will be in a position to commit to the development schedule and start-up of the Mabilo Project.
-
Chanach Project – the Company holds a 90% interest in the Chanach Gold and Copper Project in the Kyrgyz Republic. The Company is the manager and operator of the Chanach Project Joint Venture company (Chanach LLC) and will fund operating expenditures until completion of a Bankable Feasibility Study.
-
Panguna – RTG is the nominated development partner with the joint venture company established by the Special Mining Lease Osikaiyang Landowners Association ( SMLOLA ) and Central Exploration Pty Ltd ( Central ) in their proposal with respect to the redevelopment of the 1.5B tonne Copper-Gold Panguna Project located in the Central Region of the island of Bougainville, within the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, PNG. The proposal is an initiative of the old Panguna mine’s customary landowners ( Landowners ) (who are represented by the SMLOLA) and is conditional upon winning the support of the Autonomous Bougainville Government ( ABG ) and others.
Other business development opportunities
The Company continues to investigate a number of new business opportunities diversifying its Philippine and Kyrgyzstan interests and the opportunities in Bougainville. No agreements or arrangements (binding or otherwise) as to key terms have been reached with respect to any potential opportunity, other than as set out above with regard to the binding term sheet with Glencore International AG for the debt finance and offtake to fund 100% of the planned capital expenditure for the development of Stage 1 (ie the Direct Shipping Operation) of the Mabilo Project) and a possible role in the redevelopment of Panguna. At this stage there are no new business opportunities available to the Company that are considered sufficiently progressed to be considered material to RTG. There can be no guarantee that any particular opportunity considered by RTG from time to time will result in a transaction being entered into and/or completed.
Details required by ASX Listing Rules
The following information in relation to the issue of the Tranche 1 Shares under the Private Placement is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.5:
Date of The Tranche 1 Shares were issued on 9 April issue 2025.

All participants in Tranche 1 of the Private Placement were not substantial holders (10% or more) or related parties of the Company. A summary of the material terms of the Private Placement is set out above.

8

Board Recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Item 3.
The Chair intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Item 3.
ITEM 4 APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF SHARES UNDER
TRANCHE 2 OF THE PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Purpose of approval
The Company is seeking Shareholder approval to issue 365,486,155 Shares pursuant to Tranche 2 of the Private Placement (excluding those Shares proposed to be issued to Equinox and participating Directors ( Participating Directors ) or their nominees under the Private Placement, which are the subject of separate approvals in Items 5 and 7 to 10) ( Tranche 2 Shares ).

Majority Voting Policy
The TSX has adopted amendments to its listing rules that require listed companies, such as the Company, to implement a majority voting policy. A majority voting policy is used when Shareholders are only entitled to vote “for” or “withhold” their vote in respect of the election of each Director. Majority voting policies generally provide that a Director who receives a majority of “withhold” votes, but is elected, must tender their resignation for consideration by the Board. A Board of Directors is generally expected to consider the Director’s resignation and make a public announcement of its decision.
The Company has not adopted a majority voting policy due to the fact that the Company is subject to a majority voting system that aligns with BVI corporate law. The Company Shareholders can vote “for”, “against” or “abstain” with respect to the election of each Director. Unless a Director receives a majority of votes in favour of their election, they will not be elected. Votes cast as an abstention are not counted in favour or against a resolution. Consequently, the TSX has granted an exemption from adopting the majority voting policy, as the Company otherwise satisfies the majority voting requirements in a manner acceptable to the TSX.
As a result, the Company does not include a management information circular pursuant to National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations in this Notice and Canadian Shareholders are cautioned that the disclosures contained in this Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Memorandum may not be comparable to what would otherwise be disclosed by reporting issuers that are not designated foreign issuers
BOARD APPROVAL
The contents and sending of this Notice and Explanatory Memorandum have been approved by the Board of Directors.
Dated at Perth, Australia, as of the 24 of April, 2025.
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD
Justine Magee
President and Chief Executive Officer 29 April 2025
ITEM 12 OTHER BUSINESS
To consider any other business that can lawfully be brought before the Meeting.
GENERAL COMPANY INFORMATION
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND PROFESSIONAL PERSONS
In this paragraph, “professional person” means any person whose profession gives authority to a statement made by the person in the person’s professional capacity and includes a barrister and solicitor (attorney), a public accountant, an appraiser, valuator, auditor, engineer or geologist.
No professional person or associate of a professional person that has made a statement in this Explanatory Memorandum, holds any beneficial interest, direct or indirect, in any securities or property of the Company or of an associate or affiliate of the Company and no such person is expected to be elected, appointed or employed as a Director, Executive Officer or employee of the Company or of an associate or affiliate of the Company and no such person is a promoter of the Company or an associate or affiliate of the Company.
INFORMATION FOR CANADIAN HOLDERS
The Company is a “reporting issuer” subject to the securities laws of certain provinces of Canada, including disclosure requirements relating to proxies, notices of shareholder meetings and disclosure in connection with those meetings. However, the Company confirms that it continues to be a “designated foreign issuer” as defined in National Instrument 71-102 – Continuous Disclosure and Other Exemptions Relating to Foreign Issuers. As such, the Company is exempt from certain requirements otherwise imposed on reporting issuers in Canada, including proxies, notices of shareholder meetings and disclosure in connection with those meetings, provided generally that the Company complies with the relevant foreign disclosure requirements of an approved foreign jurisdiction. The Company is subject to the foreign regulatory requirements of the ASX and the Australian Securities & Investments Commission.

-
(b) Once given, the exercise notice may only be revoked at the request of the Company with the consent of the optionholder (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld).

-
(ii) the Company may request and the optionholder must provide an undertaking to the Company not to sell the relevant Shares in circumstances in which would otherwise require the holder or the Company to issue a disclosure document under the Corporations Act in relation to the sale offer for a period of 12 months after the date of issue.

13 Bonus issues
If there is a bonus issue of Shares, the number of Shares over which an Option is exercisable increases by the number of Shares which the optionholder would have received if the Option had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue and without any change to the Exercise Price.
14 Reorganisation of capital
-
[The following rules shall apply on a reorganisation of capital, unless inconsistent with the ASX Listing Rules at a time when the Company is listed on ASX, in which case the ASX Listing Rules shall prevail:
-
(a) in a consolidation of Shares, the number of Options must be consolidated in the same ratio as Shares and the Exercise Price must be amended in inverse proportion to that ratio;
-
(b) in a subdivision of Shares, the number of Options must be sub-divided in the same ratio as Shares and the Exercise Price must be amended in inverse proportion to that ratio;
-
(c) in a return of capital to shareholders, the number of Options must remain the same, and the Exercise Price of each Option must be reduced by the same amount as the amount returned in relation to each Share;
-
(d) in a reduction of capital by cancellation of capital paid up on Shares that is lost or not represented by available assets where no Shares are cancelled, the number of options and the Exercise Price of each option must remain unaltered;
-
(e) in a pro rata cancellation of Shares, the number of Options must be reduced in the same ratio as the Shares and the Exercise Price of each Option must be amended in inverse proportion to that ratio; and
-
(f) in any other case where the Shares are reorganised, the number of Options or the Exercise Price, or both, must be reorganised so that the optionholder will not receive a benefit that holders of Shares do not receive.]
In the event of any reorganisation (including reconstruction, consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return of capital) of issued capital of the Company, the Options will be reorganised as required by the ASX Listing Rules, but in all other respects the terms of exercise will remain unchanged.
Options register
-
(a) The Company will maintain a register of optionholders which complies, so far as practicable, with the requirements of section 170 of the Corporations Act (as amended) ( Options Register ).
-
(b) The Options Register will be kept by or on behalf of the Company in Perth, Western Australia.
