MARCH 2026 QUARTERLY ACTIVITIES REPORT
ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE AUSTRALIAN SECURITIES EXCHANGE
30 APRIL 2026
HIGHLIGHTS
High-Grade Mabilo Copper and Gold Project – Philippines
- JV Partners Committed to Target Near-term Development Start-up: RTG Mining and its Philippine partner - TVI Resource Development (Phils.) Inc. ("TVIRD") - are committed to a Financial Investment Decision ("FID") late Q2; with operational start-up to commence following an estimated 9-month development timeline.
- Expedited Development Timeline: The Project generates significant early cashflow with a reserve grade of the Supergene Chalcocite material of approximately 21% Cu, which potentially will see the Project commence operations early Q2 2027.
- Well Positioned to Capitalise on Strong Commodity Prices: With a short development cycle given a planned direct shipping operation, RTG is well positioned to capitalise on the strong current and general consensus views of continued strengthening in the copper price.
- Low Risk: Stage 1 of the Project is very low risk, with a Direct Shipping Operation ("DSO") and requires no construction of a plant, with development primarily comprising a pre-strip program.
- Key Funding Agreement in Place for Stage 1 Start-up: Binding term sheet for finance and offtake executed for start-up of Stage 1 high-grade (21% Cu) DSO:
- Mt. Labo has entered into a strategic partnership with Glencore International AG ("Glencore"), one of the largest natural resource companies in the world, to finance 100% of the planned capital expenditure for Stage 1 of the Mabilo Project.
- Mabilo DSO operation will access the primary source of ore being the 0.104 Mt of supergene chalcocite material at an average reserve grade of 20.7% Cu, expected to produce approximately 25,200 tonnes of copper, with an additional 52,900 ounces of gold from other products.
- Glencore has reconfirmed their commitment to working with Mt. Labo on the Mabilo Project financing and offtake and has been supportive of the development plans.
- New Drilling Campaigns at the Mabilo Project: Drilling planned to target extensions to the high-grade chalcocite material for Stage 1 operations during Q2 2026.
Chanach Gold and Copper Project – Kyrgyz Republic
- RTG holds a majority stake (90%) in the high-grade Chanach Gold and Copper Project ("Chanach Project") in the Kyrgyz Republic.
- Chanach continued to demonstrate clear potential to host both a high-grade, large Copper – Gold Porphyry-Skarn system, combined with a high-grade epithermal gold system.
- No field work was planned during the quarter due to weather restrictions.
- Preparations for the new field season were conducted during the quarter, including contracting a drilling and earthworks company and contracting a laboratory for drill sample analysis. Mobilisation to site is expected to commence this quarter.
- Planning for infill drilling of the epithermal gold vein system and some of the high grade skarns was conducted during the quarter with the target being an upgrade of the resource status.
Copper Market Outlook
- Copper Market Dynamics Continue to Drive Mabilo Economics: Copper continues to trade at elevated levels of approximately US$6.00/lb, underpinned by structural supply deficits, tightening concentrate markets, and robust long-term demand driven by electrification, Al infrastructure, and the global energy transition - factors that materially enhance the economics of the Mabilo Project.
- The strengthening copper market continues to significantly enhance the economics of Mabilo and therefore management is of the view the underlying value per RTG share is many multiples of current trading prices.
Corporate Summary
- Cash and liquid assets as of 31 March 2026 were A$10.6 million.
rtgmining.com | TSX: RTG | ASX: RTG
RTG Mining Inc. (ASX:RTG, TSX:RTG) ("RTG" or "the Company") is pleased to provide its quarterly activities report for the period ended 31 March 2026.
RTG holds a 40% interest in Mt. Labo Exploration and Development Corporation ("Mt. Labo") which owns the near-term development and high-grade Mabilo Copper and Gold Project in the Philippines, together with a 2% Net Smelter Royalty and a loan of approximately US$27M, to be repaid out of the proceeds of the Stage 1 DSO.
SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS
PHILIPPINES INTERESTS – THE MABILO COPPER AND GOLD PROJECT
Aligned Focus: Committed to DSO Start-up in 2026
RTG's primary focus continues to be on advancing the Mabilo Copper and Gold Project towards FID and development start-up in 2026.
Importantly, the Mabilo Project has a significant advantage, with the first phase being a DSO operation, with limited capital expenditure requirements. In respect to the Stage 1 development, Mt. Labo has executed a binding finance and offtake term sheet to fund 100% of the planned capital expenditure. The Stage 1 development is underpinned by the primary source of ore being the 0.104Mt of supergene chalcocite material at an average reserve grade of 20.7% Cu.
The strong and collaborative working relationship with our joint venture partner, TVIRD has been very productive, and we continue to make strong progress in advancing the Project to start-up.
Glencore Financing Agreement
As previously reported (see ASX announcement dated 6 March 2025), Mt. Labo entered into a strategic partnership with Glencore to finance 100% of the planned capital expenditure for Stage 1 of Mabilo. The secured financing facility provides for a total of up to US$30M (in three-tranches), on attractive terms, for the development of Stage 1 of the Mabilo Project as well as working capital requirements:
- Tranche A (for US$3.5M) provides early funding flexibility to fund Stage 1 Project land acquisition (or reimburse at this stage), with limited conditions precedent;
- Tranche B provides US$21.5M for the balance of development of Stage 1 of the Project together with any working capital needs; and
- Tranche C provides US$5.0M for any additional working capital purposes subject to consent of both parties
With important financing milestones now in place, the key remaining tasks to address and complete prior to a commitment to development are to finalise the conversion/permitting for coconut tree felling.
RTG conducts fortnightly meetings with the senior management of TVIRD, and good progress continues to be made towards the completion of start-up plans. We have also held in early January a meeting of all senior joint venture staff to plan for a commitment to development of the project late in the second quarter of this year.
Mabilo Project: Background Summary
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 has executed the binding debt finance and offtake term sheet to fund 100% of the planned capital development budget for start-up of Stage 1 of the Mabilo Project.
- The Villar Family, our partner in the Mabilo Project, is one of the most prominent families in the Philippines and RTG is pleased to partner with them in the development of the Mabilo Project, which is a significant mining project for the country.
rtgmining.com | TSX: RTG | ASX: RTG
- RTG will have 40% of Mt. Labo; a 2% net smelter royalty; RTG's loans to Mt. Labo, currently in the order of US$27 million (A$42.8 million), will be repaid early out of the proceeds of Stage 1, the DSO, subject to customary requirements to address liquidity and ongoing operations of Mt. Labo and repayment of external debt to finance Stage 1 of the Project.
- Mt. Labo received written confirmation in May 2020 that the MGB has approved the consolidation of the current Mineral Production Sharing Agreement No. MLC-MRD-459 for the Nalesbitan Project to include the Mabilo Project, having already secured an approved Declared Mine Feasibility Study and Environmental Clearance Certificate for the Project.

Exploration and Development Activities
Resource Extensions
No exploration activities were undertaken during the March quarter.
The next round of exploration, expected to commence during Q2 2026, will likely focus primarily on sterilization drilling and extensions to the oxide reserve and resource.
An important follow-up drilling program will be undertaken in due course on the porphyry target located under volcanic cover between the South Mineralised Zone and the East Mineralised Zone and extension drilling of the skarn system along strike, with additional infill drilling in the inferred material.
The porphyry target is well supported by mineralized porphyry veins (b-veins) that have been intercepted in the resource drilling, combined with increasing intensity of calc-silicate alteration and the trending of metallogenic vectors.

KYRGYZ REPUBLIC INTERESTS – THE CHANACH PROJECT
RTG holds a 90% interest in the Chanach Project.
Highlights of the Chanach Project include:
- Existing high-grade JORC compliant Inferred Mineral Resource of 2.95 Mt @ 5.11 g/t Au for 484,000 ounces of Au and 17.23 Mt @ 0.37% Cu for 64,000t of Cu¹ (141.1 Mlbs Cu) from only limited drilling to date.
- Favourable acquisition cost of US$3.65 / ounce of Gold and US$0.0063 / pound of copper.
- 4,300m of diamond drilling successfully completed during 2025 field season - assays continued to highlight strong copper-gold potential across multiple zones within the Chanach Project area.
- A three-year renewal of the Exploration Licence has been finalised and granted. The Exploration Licence was issued by the State Committee of Industry, Energy and Subsoil Use of the Kyrgyz Republic.
The Chanach Project is located in the prolific southern Tien Shan metallogenic belt, which runs more than 1,500 km from Uzbekistan through to China and hosts one of the world's largest open pit gold mines, Muruntau (175 Moz²) with production believed to be in the order of 2 million ounces per annum².
The Chanach Project has extensive outcropping mineralised geology with high-grade gold veins from surface and significant gold and copper Inferred Mineral Resources. Trenching and sampling was completed in previous years, with the 3DIP and 2DIP programs undertaken during the last field season. The Chanach Project area is highly prospective for world class epithermal gold, porphyry copper-gold and polymetallic skarn deposits already identified.
To date the limited exploration activities have defined an Inferred Mineral Resource of 2.95 Mt @ 5.11 g/t Au for 484,000 ounces of Au and 17.23 Mt @ 0.37% Cu for 64,000t of Cu.
