The Thunderbird Mineral Sands Mine is a long life world class mineral sands mine, and we look forward to continued growth in our mineral sands business over the coming years.

The health, safety and environmental performance at Thunderbird is impressive. With over 750,000 hours of work completed throughout this year, we have achieved a restricted work injury frequency rate of 1.32, well below comparable mining industry benchmarks. This is an outstanding achievement by the Kimberley Mineral Sands (KMS) team and all contractors involved with the Thunderbird Mine.

Operations at Thunderbird throughout 2025 were not without their challenges. Higher than expected oversize material continued to be observed, constraining Dry Mining Unit (DMU) output available to feed the processing plant. Productivity was also challenged by lower waste mining rates compared to plan, and greater than expected DMU maintenance requirements impacting upon DMU availability.

Addressing this challenge, the KMS team implemented a business improvement initiative during the financial year, geared toward maximising throughput to the process plant. Waste mining capacity and productivity grew via the implementation of a drill and blast program and mobilisation of a new waste mining contractor with a larger excavation and trucking fleet during the second

half of the year, to accommodate greater volumes of waste movement. Modifications to the DMU to improve oversize handling and overall DMU availability were also completed. By the end of the 2025 financial year, the mining operations were achieving an annualised production rate of 12mtpa, consistent with the revised business plan. The business improvement initiative also led to a reduction in KMS workforce requirements which regrettably resulted in approximately 20% of KMS staff and some contractors leaving the business. KMS provided impacted personnel with appropriate support during this difficult process.

Looking forward to FY2026, the focus of the Thunderbird team will be upon continuing business initiatives to increase production in line with the revised business plan. During the year, KMS undertook a series of production trials that successfully demonstrated that the existing fleet of dozers and DMU could sustain a mining rate equivalent to 16mtpa. Based upon this, KMS has developed an operating plan to progressively increase mine production capacity to 16mtpa by the second half of FY2026. KMS plans to then vary mine production to allow for variations in the ore body to ensure sufficient feed to fill the process plant which is designed to process 1085tph of rougher head feed, and this should result in a concentrate production rate of 900,000 – 950,000 tpa of ilmenite concentrate and 220,000 – 240,000 tpa of zircon concentrate by the second half of FY2026.

KMS continue to focus on employing as many local people as possible and maintain a residential workforce and their families within the Kimberley region. This approach ensures local economic benefit is maximised. As of 30 June 2025, 85% of the direct workforce are permanent residents of Broome, Derby and surrounding

2 Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2025

West Kimberley communities, reflecting the commitment to a locally based workforce. Kimberley Mineral Sands employs a workforce comprising 30% Aboriginal employees within its direct workforce with 23% of the workforce represented by female employees.

In addition to our investment in Kimberley Mineral Sands, we continued to advance our interest in the South Atlantic Project in Brazil and also made a further investment in Capital Metals Plc (AIM: CMET), the owner of the Taprobane Minerals Project in Sri Lanka. A maiden Mineral Resource estimate of 771Mt @ 3.0% THM (Indicated and Inferred) for 23Mt of contained THM for the combined Retiro and Bujuru projects was completed at the South Atlantic Project. Rio Grande Mineração S/A (RGM) has also been granted an Installation Licence for Central Retiro, part of the greater Retiro deposit, paving the way for RGM to progress a Mining Decree for the initial project area.

With the Thunderbird mine continuing to grow production, we expect 2026 will see your Company achieve robust mineral sands production, delivering mineral sands concentrate products to a wide range of customers. I would like to thank my fellow Directors, our employees, the Kimberley Mineral Sands team and their contractors, our joint venture partner Yansteel, along with our financiers NAIF and Orion for their continued efforts and support during a significant year for Sheffield, where we put in place the foundations for strong performance in the years to come.

In closing, I sincerely thank Sheffield’s shareholders for your ongoing support as we look forward to growing production at Thunderbird in 2026.

KIMBERLEY MINERAL SANDS (KMS)

During the reporting period, through its 50% interest in Kimberley Mineral Sands Pty Ltd ( KMS ), Sheffield Resources Limited ( Sheffield, the Company or the Group ) completed the first full year of production from the Thunderbird Mineral Sands Mine (Thunderbird) in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.

KMS is a 50/50 joint venture between Sheffield and YGH Australia Investment Pty Ltd (Yansteel). Yansteel is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tangshan Yanshan Iron & Steel

Co. Ltd, a privately owned steel manufacturer headquartered in Hebei, China producing approximately 10mt per annum of steel products.

Thunderbird is one of the largest and highest-grade zircon mineral sands deposits in the world and contains valuable minerals including ilmenite, zircon and leucoxene, which are extracted and exported as concentrates via the Port of Broome to offtake partners in China. Construction activities at Thunderbird were completed during 2023, ahead of schedule and within

the original $484 million budget. The maiden shipment of Thunderbird products to customers was completed in January 2024, with the first bulk shipment departing Broome in March 2024.

Throughout the first full production period for the 2025 financial year, Thunderbird produced 741,826 tonnes of concentrate products, mining in excess of 10 million tonnes of ore. From commencement of operations through to the end of June 2025, Thunderbird had shipped in excess of 1,000,000 tonnes of concentrate products to its offtake customers in China.

Health and Safety

A strong safe working culture for all employees and contractors is essential within the KMS operating environment. Reflecting the robust safety culture, the restricted work injury frequency rate as at the end of June 2025 was 1.32, with one lost time injuries occurring during the reporting period.

KMS safety performance metrics for the Thunderbird mine are outlined below:

754,975 Operations Hours Worked

Restricted Work Injury Frequency Rate 1.32

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)

Minimising environmental impacts is integral to the long-term success of Kimberley Mineral Sands, and all activities are undertaken in a considered and measured approach, spanning Thunderbird’s active mine life and beyond.

With climate reporting mandates for Australian companies having commenced on 1 January 2025, KMS is focused on ensuring that it meets the disclosure requirements relative to the Australian Sustainability Reporting Standards (ASRS) and Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB S2) climate related disclosure standard anticipated to be required in the 2027 financial year. The first report under Division 3 of Part 2 of the National Greenhouse and Energy Response Reporting Act (NGER), 2007 was submitted to the Clean Energy Regulator (CER) in October 2024.

The Commonwealth Government’s Net Zero Plan will guide Australia’s transition to the legislated target of reducing emissions by 43% by 2030 and achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. KMS is adopting the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), the world’s only science backed framework for corporate net zero target setting. This SBTi provides near-term and long-term emissions reduction targets, validated against the latest climate science.

The draft Net Zero Strategy has been progressed in the current reporting period, in preparation for adoption during the 2026 financial year. Reductions in Scope 1 and 2 emissions will be prioritised through increased operational efficiency and guided by frameworks from the Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC) and Minerals Research Institute of WA (MRIWA).

Thunderbird Process Plant

KMS is committed to supporting the Kimberley community through employment, community engagement, and local and Aboriginal business opportunities. During the 2025 financial year, KMS committed over $60 million amongst over 100 local West Kimberley based businesses, on a range of products and services from civil contracting, fuel supplies, mobile plant hire, and office services. The vast majority was committed with Aboriginal owned businesses, of which over $12 million was contracted with Joombarnburu Traditional Owner businesses, exceeding initial targets of $10 million per year by 2031.

During the 2025 financial year, excellent progress was made in achieving Aboriginal employment targets across the KMS business. As at 30 June 2025, KMS employed a workforce comprising over 30% Aboriginal employees, and a female workforce population of 23% within its overall direct workforce of 102 people. 85% of employees are permanent residents of Broome,

Derby and surrounding West Kimberley communities, reflecting the KMS commitment to a locally based workforce.

Thunderbird Operational and Financial Performance

Total ore mined for the reporting period was 10.4 million tonnes, with concentrate production totalling 741,826 tonnes for the reporting period. Dry Mining Unit (DMU) operating performance continues to achieve an annualised mining rate between 10Mt to 12Mt per annum, with the maximum expected throughput rate of up to 16mpta by the end of the 2026 financial year.

For the reporting period, the Heavy Mineral (HM) grade of the feed to the process plant (Rougher Head Feed or RHF) was 20.1% compared with 19.7% expected from the Mineral Resource block model. Rougher Head Feed volumes achieved were approximately 75% of basis of design per tonne of ore mined, driven by observed oversize material, and had reached approximately 80% of the

basis of design by the end of the year. The process plant is performing strongly, with TiO2 and ZrO2 recovery consistently at or above basis of design.

Product shipments totalled 757,592 dry metric tonnes for the reporting period, including a record 226,940 tonnes shipped during the March 2025 quarter. Whilst subdued zircon concentrate markets were experienced during the reporting period, KMS has secured government approvals for a wide range of approved offtake customers during the financial year, broadening the customer base, with continued healthy demand for zircon concentrate.

A Business Improvement Initiative to identify and implement opportunities to reduce costs and increase productivity was launched during the reporting period. This resulted in several cost saving initiatives being identified, including a reduction in KMS workforce requirements which regrettably resulted in approximately

During the reporting period, the business improvement initiative has seen KMS complete a series of production trials that successfully demonstrated that the existing fleet of dozers and DMU could sustain a mining rate equivalent to 16mtpa. Based upon this, KMS has developed an operating plan to progressively increase mine production capacity to 16mtpa by the end of the 2026 financial year. In conjunction with this approach, KMS transitioned to drill and blast waste mining and mobilised a new waste mining contractor with a larger excavator and truck waste mining fleet. Drill & blast activities commenced in January 2025, with mining and in-pit processing plans continue to be developed to achieve mining cost reduction and increase throughput rates and RHF to the process plant.

Sales

Product shipments of ilmenite concentrate totalled 594,275 metric tonnes under the offtake agreement to joint venture partner, Yansteel. Product pricing is fixed price per percent of TiO2 content contained within the ilmenite concentrate, with realised pricing of approximately US$129/t for the reporting period.

Zircon concentrate shipments totaled 144,521 metric tonnes, with shipments to a wide range of offtake customers throughout the reporting period. The average realised price achieved for zircon concentrate was US$549/t.

Financial

At the end of June 2025, KMS cash reserves totalled $15m. During the reporting period, KMS arranged offtake prepayment facilities with Yansteel to assist with near term working capital requirements. As at the end of June 2025, offtake prepayments totalled $31m, which shall be repaid from delivered ilmenite concentrate volumes during the 2026 financial year and may be renewed by mutual agreement.

KMS had fully utilised debt facilities from NAIF Facility A (A$120 million), NAIF Facility B (A$40 million), and Orion Mineral Resource Fund (US$110 million). In accordance with the terms of the Orion facility agreement, the initial amortisation payment of US$11 million was made on 30 June 2025. As at the balance date, the total outstanding balance on the Orion facility was US$99 million. Quarterly interest payment instalments were made throughout the financial year to both NAIF and Orion in the ordinary course of business.

C1 cash costs per tonne produced were $296/tonne of concentrate for the reporting period. C1 costs may differ from previously reported quarterly interim results due to cost reconciliation and reallocations that have occurred during 2025. Finished goods inventory comprises approximately 70,000 tonnes of ilmenite concentrate and over 20,000 tonnes of zircon concentrate available for shipment as at the end of the reporting period.

KMS Outlook

Looking ahead to the 2026 financial year, the focus for KMS and Thunderbird will be in the following areas:

  • initiatives to increase production and shipping, reduce debt, and implement operational improvements and efficiencies at Thunderbird;

  • delivering value to shareholders and both economic and social benefits to our Traditional Owners and the West Kimberley through disciplined financial management, operational efficiency, and continued investment in our people, infrastructure and local community; and

  • strong financial management transitioning into a sustainable business generating cash flows for shareholders.

KMS Environmental Regulation

KMS is subject to various environmental regulations in respect to its exploration, development and production activities.

In the course of its normal mining and exploration activities, KMS adheres to all environmental regulations imposed upon it by the relevant regulatory authorities, particularly those regulations relating to ground disturbance and the protection of rare and endangered flora and fauna.

KMS Greenhouse Gas and Energy Data Reporting Requirements

KMS has considered compliance with the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act (NGER), 2007 (Cth) which requires entities to report annual greenhouse gas emissions and energy use in Australia. For the measurement period, the first report under Division 3 of Part 2 of the NGER was submitted to the Clean Energy Regulator during October 2024.

External Factors and Risks Affecting the Company’s Results

Sheffield operates in an uncertain economic environment, but these uncertainties are minimised through the application of a rigorous risk management framework and clearly defined risk appetite, defined by the Board. Consequently, the Board and management monitor these uncertainties and, where possible, mitigate the associated risk of adverse outcomes. The following external factors are all capable of having a material adverse effect on the Sheffield business and may affect the prospects of business units, including the Thunderbird mine, for future financial years.

Exposure to Economic, Environment and Social Risks

Sheffield has material exposure to economic, environmental and social risks, including changes in community expectations, and environmental, social and

8 Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2025

==> picture [317 x 313] intentionally omitted <==

Emergency response training exercise

governance legislation (including, for example, those matters related to climate change). At the Thunderbird mine, reasonable steps are taken via the employment of suitably qualified personnel to assist with the management of its exposure to these risks.

Risks related to mining operational activities

Thunderbird’s operations comprise mining and development with a primary focus on the development of high-grade deposits within the mineral sands sector. Operations generally involve a high degree of risk and are subject to all the hazards and risks normally encountered in the mining and development of mineral deposits. These include unstable ground conditions, adverse weather conditions, flooding and other conditions involved in the drilling and removal of material, any of which could result in damage to, or destruction of, mines and other producing facilities, damage to life or property, environmental damage and possible legal liability. Although adequate precautions to minimize risks are, and will continue to be, taken, Thunderbird’s operations are subject to risks which may result in environmental pollution and possible liability.

During the operation of the

Thunderbird mine, KMS must comply and remain compliant with its Mining License conditions and Australian Mining Codes in order to retain prospecting and mining rights. Any failure to satisfy these requirements could jeopardise any prospecting or mining rights held and impede the ability to acquire, develop or maintain any additional prospecting and mining rights, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Sheffield and KMS business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and/or prospects.

Thunderbird is an established mining operation. Expenditures made or further drilling results are no guarantee for further developments or discoveries of profitable commercial mining operations. Lack of availability of drilling rigs could cause increased project expenditures and/or project delays. Heavy mineral operational development of Thunderbird involves significant risks to develop metallurgical processes and to construct mining and processing facilities. Although adequate precautions to minimize risks are, and will continue to be, taken, Thunderbird is subject to risks which may result in delays or potential performance below expectations.

Sheffield, through its interests, may be affected by various factors, including failure to locate or identify mineral deposits, failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining, operational and technical difficulties encountered in mining, insufficient or unreliable infrastructure such as power, water and transport, difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment, mechanical failure or plant breakdown, unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

In the event that any of these potential risks occur, Sheffield’s operational and financial performance may be adversely affected.

Processing Risks

Processing of ore takes place at the Thunderbird mine site and the processing is subject to interruption risk, equipment failure, ore variability, labour risk and other risks associated with mineral extraction and processing. The outcome of this has the potential to materially affect Sheffield results and profitability.

Sheffield Resources Limited 9 Annual Report 2025

Mine Accommodation area

Access to Export Infrastructure

Exploration Risk

KMS exports products through the Port of Broome, which is not owned or operated by KMS, and experiences significantly higher activity in the dry season as cruise ships and livestock vessels increase their berthing frequency. This port has limited capacity and is not always available for timely export of available inventory, which affects timing of operating cash inflows.

The exploration for and development of mineral deposits involves significant risks which even careful evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate. While the discovery of minerals may result in substantial rewards, few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. Major expense may be incurred to locate and establish mineral reserves, to develop metallurgical processes and to construct mining and processing facilities at a particular site. It is not possible to ensure that the exploration or development programs planned by Sheffield will result in a profitable commercial mining operation.

Oversize Material

A significantly higher percentage of oversize material (>12mm) is rejected at the DMU than was initially modelled and predicted. A consequence of the increased oversize material is a potential displacement of heavy-mineralbearing sand and potential increased operating cost per tonne of ore produced or potential decrease in Ore Reserves. Any expected impact is currently unknown and under review.

Whether a mineral deposit will be commercially viable depends on a number of factors, some of which are: the particular attributes of the deposit, such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure, commodity prices which are highly cyclical, government regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure,

land use, importing and exporting of minerals and environmental protection. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in Sheffield not receiving an adequate return on invested capital. If any adverse event relating to exploration, mining and/ or development should occur, then it could have a material adverse effect on the Sheffield business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or prospects.

Risk of Inaccurate Estimates

There is considerable uncertainty inherent in estimating the size and value of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. The techniques are subjective and an inexact process where the estimation of the accumulation of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves cannot be accurately measured. To evaluate the recoverable mineral volumes, a number of geological, geophysical, technical and production data must be evaluated. The evaluation conducted in relation to the mineral sands operations may later prove to be inaccurate, and there is a real risk that estimated Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves may be adjusted downward. For example, mineral sands mined may be of a different quality, tonnage or strip ratio from the estimates. Mineral Resource estimates are necessarily imprecise and depend to some extent upon interpretations, which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate and require adjustment. Adjustment to the estimates of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves could affect development and mining plans, which could have a materially adverse effect on the Sheffield business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or prospects.

Risk of Uninsured Losses

Sheffield is exposed to a number of risks and hazards generally, including adverse environmental conditions, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected geological conditions, contamination, changes in the regulatory environment and natural

10 Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2025

phenomena such as inclement weather conditions or floods. Such occurrences could have a material adverse effect on the Sheffield business, operating result or financial condition.

At Thunderbird, KMS holds comprehensive property and equipment insurance, as well as business interruption insurance to protect against certain risks in such amounts as it considers reasonable. Insurance may not cover all the potential risks associated with the Company’s operations.

Contractual Risks

The ability to efficiently conduct Sheffield business in several respects depends upon third party product and service providers and contracts. Accordingly, in some circumstances, contractual arrangements have been entered into by KMS. As in any contractual relationship, the ability for KMS to ultimately receive benefits from these contracts is dependent upon the relevant third party complying with its contractual obligations. To the extent that such third parties default in their obligations, it may be necessary for KMS to enforce its rights under any of the contracts and pursue legal action. Such legal action may be costly, and no guarantee can be given by KMS or Sheffield that a legal remedy will ultimately be granted on appropriate terms.

Additionally, some existing

contractual arrangements that have been entered into by Sheffield and its subsidiaries may be subject to the consent of third parties being obtained to enable controlled entities to carry on all of its planned business and other activities and to obtain full contractual benefits. No assurance can be given that any such required consent will be forthcoming. Failure by Sheffield to obtain such consent may result in Sheffield not being able to carry on all of its planned business and other activities or proceed with its rights under any of the relevant contracts requiring such consent.

Thunderbird Mining Operations

Commodity Prices

The prices that KMS obtains for its products are a key driver of business performance, and fluctuations in these markets affects its results, including cash flows and shareholder returns. 2025 financial year operating cash flows were sourced from the sale of materials from Thunderbird. Each of these commodities are priced contractually or by external markets and, as Sheffield or KMS are not a price maker with respect to the materials available for sale, it is susceptible to adverse price movements. Commodity prices experienced volatility in the 2025 financial year. KMS purchases material amounts of fuel that is subject to global pricing conditions and KMS has not hedged its exposure to fuel price volatility during the financial year.

Interest Rates

Interest rate movements affect both returns on funds on deposit as well as the cost of borrowings. Interest rate risk may be hedged in certain circumstances, however, no interest rate hedging occurred during the past year.

Currency Exchange Rates

The functional currency of KMS and Sheffield is Australian Dollars (AUD). KMS cash inflows are in United States dollars (USD), which is the currency of denominated material sales and inflows may therefore be subject to fluctuations in the exchange rate with respect to sales or ad hoc expenditures in currencies that are not AUD. Both KMS and Sheffield did not enter into any currency exchange hedging during the past year.

SOUTH ATLANTIC PROJECT

The South Atlantic Project is located within the Rio Grande do Sul Coastal Plain, a region located in the southernmost state of Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul, along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean.

Sheffield has in place an investment agreement (RGM Option Agreement) with Mineração Santa Elina Indústria e Comércio S/A. and Kromus Xi Fundo De Investimento Em Participações, current owners of Rio Grande Mineração S/A ( RGM ), providing Sheffield with an option to acquire a 20% interest in RGM, the 100% owner of the South Atlantic Project in Brazil, via an initial option contribution of US$4m, with further staged payments totalling US$11m subject to the achievement of key milestones. Subject to various other conditions being satisfied, Sheffield may increase its interest in RGM up to 80% (refer ASX announcement dated 28 February 2023 for further details). As at the end of the reporting period, Sheffield had contributed a total of US$2.5m, with funding applied toward an exploration drilling program, detailed technical studies, mineral resource estimation and permitting activities.

Maiden Mineral Resource estimates for Retiro and Bujuru were completed during the reporting period. The South Atlantic Project comprises a Mineral Resource estimate of 771Mt @ 3.0% THM (Indicated and Inferred) for 23Mt of contained THM for the combined Retiro and Bujuru projects (Refer ASX announcement dated 25 June 2025 for further information) . In addition to the Mineral Resource estimate, RGM has been granted an Installation Licence for the Central Retiro area of interest, part of the greater Retiro deposit, paving the way for RGM to progress a Mining Decree for the initial project area.

Ongoing activities at RGM are focused on securing the Central Retiro mining decree, progressing project related approvals and the pre-feasibility study. Sheffield expects that the timeframe to conclude licencing and regulatory approvals processes for the South Atlantic Project will extend beyond timeframes previously anticipated, with any material contribution by the Company to acquire a 20% interest in RGM likely to be deployed over an extended time period. Sheffield will continue to provide stakeholders with relevant updates to the proposed RGM work program going forward.

CAPITAL METALS PLC

Sheffield retains a 10% interest in Capital Metals Plc (AIM: CMET ), the owner of the Taprobane Minerals Project in Sri Lanka. CMET is progressing in-country activities within Sri Lanka toward development of the Taprobane Minerals Project. During the reporting period, Sheffield participated in a CMET share placement alongside a strategic investor, contributing a $419,000 share subscription to maintain its 10% interest in CMET and associated rights.

Consultants remuneration consultants may be engaged directly by the Committee.
During the 2025 financial year, the Committee engaged the services of a remuneration consultant
(The Reward Practice Pty Ltd (TRP)) to assist with general governance and remuneration reporting
practices. Additionally, during the prior 2024 financial year, the Committee engaged TRP to provide
benchmarking and market data analysis, in relation to the remuneration of Senior Executive KMPs
and Non-Executive Directors and specifically, to assess the competitiveness of remuneration
arrangements. TRP was engaged by the Committee Chair and reported to the Committee and the
Board. The Committee and the Board considered the information provided by The Reward Practice,
along with other factors, in making their respective concluding remuneration decisions.
The Board is satisfied that the interactions between The Reward Practice and the Senior Executive
KMPs were negligible, involving the provision of remuneration data and related payroll information
for consideration. The Reward Practice has relevant procedures in place to minimise potential
opportunities for collaboration or undue influence from Senior Executive KMPs. The Board is
therefore satisfied that the market data provided was free from undue influence from Senior
Executive KMPs.

$8,250 (2024: $27,650).

Where actual performance achievement falls between performance hurdle intervals (e.g., between Minimum, Threshold and Target performance), the actual award outcome will be determined on a sliding scale basis. For example, where actual production performance is 5% below target performance and thereby falls between Threshold and Target performance, the actual award associated with the Production performance hurdle would equate to 62.5% of the maximum award.

Going forward into the 2026 Financial Year, the Committee has reviewed the above STI arrangement. This has been discussed further within Section 9 - 2026 Financial Year Planned Remuneration Structure .

2025 STI Performance Outcomes

Following the end of the 2025 financial year, the Committee considered actual performance and achievements compared to the 2025 STI Performance Criteria described in the above table.

Following the Committee’s consideration, the Board resolved to award 70% of the maximum award outcome, with Health, Safety & Environmental performance and unit cost performance accounting for the majority of the award. Production performance hurdles achieved above Threshold performance, but below Target performance. Awards were majority settled in cash In lieu of equity following Committee consideration.

Ore Reserves - Commentary:

Detailed comparison (before appropriate rounding for tabulation) has been performed between the 2024 Ore Reserve and this updated estimate by considering changes in Ore, Heavy Mineral (HM) and Valuable Heavy Mineral (VHM) tonnages between estimates. The main variance, in terms of ore tonnage, is due to changes in T1 (lower grade) feed strategy for consistency with the current life of mine plan and scale up assumptions to a second DMU as per recently disclosed business improvement initiatives. In aggregate, these changes remove 27 Mt @ 4.6% HM of ore material in the updated Ore Reserve compared to the previous disclosure. A 10Mt reduction in ore tonnes is due to mining depletion and a 1Mt reduction due to sterilisation and exclusion of material below the finished floor and required for pit road access within the current disturbance area limitations. The largest reduction between this updated estimate and the prior disclosure, in terms of contained VHM, is associated with mining depletion for the reporting period. The removal of the lower grade T1 feed material represents a 1.7% reduction in contained VHM over the previous disclosed Ore Reserve and is not considered material. There are no material differences in primary in-situ grades or mineral assemblage between estimates, other than the inclusion of the adjusted oversize estimate used for enhanced mine planning.

The Ore Reserve estimate was prepared by Entech Pty Ltd, an experienced and prominent mining engineering consultancy with appropriate mineral sands experience in accordance with the JORC Code (2012 Edition). The Ore Reserve is estimated using all available geological and relevant drill hole and assay data, including mineralogical sampling and test work on mineral recoveries and final product qualities. Measured and Indicated Resources were converted to Proved and Probable Ore Reserves respectively, subject to mine design, modifying factors and economic valuation.

The Company is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the Ore Reserve estimate.

Note 1: Night Train: The Mineral Resources estimate was prepared by Optiro Pty Ltd (now Snowden Optiro) and first disclosed under the JORC Code (2012). Thunderbird: The Mineral Resource estimate was prepared by Optiro Pty Ltd (now Snowden Optiro) and first disclosed under the JORC Code (2012). The Dampier Project Mineral Resources are reported inclusive of (not additional to) Ore Reserves.

Note 2: HM is within the 38µm to 1mm size fraction and reported as a percentage of the total material, slimes is the -38µm fraction and oversize is the +1mm fraction.

Note 3: Tonnes and grades have been rounded to reflect the relative accuracy and confidence level of the estimate, thus the sum of columns may not equal.

Note 4: Thunderbird: Estimates of Mineral Assemblage are presented as percentages of the Heavy Mineral (HM) component of the deposit, as determined by magnetic separation, QEMSCAN[TM] and XRF. Magnetic fractions were analysed by QEMSCAN[TM] for mineral determination as follows: Ilmenite: 40-70% TiO2 >90% Liberation; Leucoxene: 70-94% TiO2 >90% Liberation; High Titanium Leucoxene (HiTi Leucoxene): >94% TiO2 >90% Liberation; and Zircon: 66.7% ZrO2+HfO2 >90% Liberation. The non-magnetic fraction was submitted for XRF analysis and minerals determined as follows: Zircon: ZrO2+HfO2/0.667 and High Titanium Leucoxene (HiTi Leucoxene): TiO2/0.94. An adjustment has been made to the oversize contents to align this with production data.

Note 5: Night Train: Estimates of Mineral Assemblage are presented as percentages of the Heavy Mineral (HM) component of the deposit, as determined by magnetic separation, QEMSCAN[TM] and XRF for one of 12 composite samples. Magnetic fractions were analysed by QEMSCAN[TM] for mineral determination as follows: Ilmenite: 40-70% TiO2 >90% Liberation; Leucoxene: 70-90% TiO2 >90% Liberation; High Titanium Leucoxene (HiTi Leucoxene) and Rutile 90% TiO2 >90% Liberation, and Zircon: 66.7% ZrO2+HfO2 >90% Liberation. The non-magnetic fraction was submitted for XRF analysis and minerals determined as follows: Zircon: ZrO2+HfO2/0.667 and High Titanium Leucoxene (HiTi Leucoxene): TiO2/0.94. HM assemblage determination- was by the QEMSCAN[TM] process for 11 of 12 composite samples which uses observed mass and chemistry to classify particles according to their average chemistry, and then report mineral abundance by dominant % mass in particle. For the TiO2 minerals the following breakpoints were used to distinguish between Ilmenite 40% to 70% TiO2, Leucoxene 70% to 90% TiO2, High Titanium Leucoxene and Rutile > 90%, Screening of the heavy mineral was not required.

Note 6: HiTi Leucoxene and Rutile (%) combined for Night Train at a >90% TiO2 (as one assemblage sample utilised=> 90% rutile and HiTi Leucoxene), HiTi Leucoxene for Thunderbird > 94% TiO2

Note 7: Mineral Resources at Thunderbird are depleted for mining to 25 June 2025. End of period mining pickups occur on 25[th] of the month. Mining physicals between 26[th] - 30[th] are not material in relation to the overall Ore Reserve and are within rounding tolerances.

36 Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2025

Mineral Resources - Commentary:

The Thunderbird Mineral Resource estimate as of June 2024 was 3.01 billion tonnes at 6.9% total heavy mineral (HM) for 207 Mt of contained HM. The Mineral Resource estimate has been updated to include data from the 2024 grade control drilling, has been depleted for mining to 25 June 2025, and excludes areas sterilised due to Aboriginal heritage protection considerations and mining. The Thunderbird Mineral Resource estimate as of 30 June 2025 is 2.99 billion tonnes at 6.8% total HM for 205 Mt of contained HM. The Mineral Resource at Thunderbird is estimated and reported in accordance with the guidelines of the JORC Code (2012).

Reconciliation analysis was undertaken by Snowden Optiro (responsible for the Mineral Resource estimate) and Entech (responsible for the Ore Reserve estimate). This indicates that there continues to exist a high degree of uncertainty with respect to oversize estimates modelled when compared with the actual proportion of oversize experienced in mining to date. Reconciliation work undertaken in respect of the updated Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates has noted poor reconcile between HM tonnes modelled and that reported at the concentrator RHF, with the model appearing to significantly overestimate the contained HM. However, acceptable reconciliation is observed when considering aggregate TiO2 + ZrO2.

Drilling and sample preparation of the exploration samples resulted in oversize material being crushed and incorporated into the sand fraction. It is postulated that the model HM is overestimated by the inclusion of more trash (non-valuable) HM from the higher observed oversize and which is then reject at, or prior to the DMU, resulting in a WCP feed with a higher valuable HM (VHM). The mineral assemblage components are reported as a percentage of the total HM fraction and so adjustments to HM, to exclude non-valuable HM from the crushed oversize fraction, would also require corresponding adjustment in the mineral assemblage estimation. The modelled mineral assemblage data includes consideration of non-valuable HM in the coarser material (including the additional crushed oversize fraction). Composite HM samples were screened at 106µm and each fraction weighted. Analysis was undertaken on the -106µm fraction, and the mineral assemblage of the total HM fraction reported by assuming non-valuable HM in the +106µm fraction.

The oversize contents in the updated Mineral Resource have been adjusted to align with production data, however, this will have to be monitored and may require further revision as more data becomes available. Provision has been made in the Ore Reserve estimate, by allowing for increased oversize quantity, both in determining rehandle volumes and cost and also in estimating RHF rates at the concentrator for scheduling within installed design process capacity constraints.

At this stage there is insufficient data to make adjustments to the modelled HM, to account for the non-valuable HM in the additional oversize fraction, and it is not yet clear if adjustments are required to the mineral assemblage data. Work to better understand the relationship between modelled/estimated oversize, HM and VHM with actual observed quantities remains ongoing. Mining to date has been limited to a relatively small and near surface region within the global Mineral Resource and it is not yet established whether experiences from mining to date can be confidently applied to the broader Mineral Resource.

The Night Train Mineral Resource estimate has not changed since 30 June 2024.

for the year ended 30 June 2025

1. Coporate information

The consolidated financial report for the year ended 30 June 2025 covers Sheffield Resources Limited (Sheffield, parent entity or the Company) and its controlled entities (collectively known as the Group or consolidated entity). The principal activities during the year were mineral sands operations in Australia and mineral sands evaluation in Brazil and Sri Lanka.

Sheffield is a for-profit company limited by shares whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The Company and its controlled entities were incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The registered office and principal place of business of the Company is Level 1, 45 Ventnor Avenue, West Perth, WA 6005.

The consolidated financial report of Sheffield for the year ended 30 June 2025 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 17 September 2025.

2. Basis of preparation

These general-purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001 . The consolidated financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Both the functional and presentation currency of Sheffield is Australian Dollars. Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that currency.

(b) Rounding of amounts

The amounts contained in the financial report have been rounded to the nearest $1,000 (unless otherwise stated) pursuant to the option available to the Company under ASIC Class Order 2016/191. The Company is an entity to which this class order applies.

(c) Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Group recorded a net loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2025 of $22.1m (2024: net loss after tax of $32.2m). At 30 June 2025, the Group had $7.1m in cash and cash equivalents (2024: $9.9m). The Group’s net assets were $116.6m (2024: $138.1) and the net cash outflows from operating activities were $2.4m (2024: $2.3m).

Kimberley Mineral Sands Pty Ltd (KMS) became jointly owned by Sheffield and YGH Australia Investment Pty Ltd (Yansteel) as at 12 March 2021. The Thunderbird mineral sands project (Thunderbird) was previously held by Sheffield through its 100% owned subsidiary KMS prior to the formation of the joint venture. The project is located in north-west Western Australia. KMS made a Final Investment Decision (FID) to construct and develop the Thunderbird project on 7 October 2022. KMS reached financial close on a combined $315m senior loan facilities provided by Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (NAIF) and OMRF (Th) LLC, a related entity of Orion Mineral Royalty Fund (Orion). The Thunderbird project was fully funded through to first production.

Operations at Thunderbird continued to observe higher than expected oversize material, constraining Dry Mining Unit (DMU) output available to feed the processing plant. Productivity was also challenged by lower waste mining rates compared to plan greater than expected DMU maintenance requirements impacting DMU availability. The KMS team implemented a business improvement initiative during the financial year, geared toward maximizing throughput to the process plant. Waste mining capacity and productivity grew and modifications to the DMU to improve oversize handling and overall DMU availability were also completed. By the end of the 2025 financial year, the mining operations were achieving an annualised production rate of 12mtpa, consistent with business the revised business plan.

The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast for the next 12 month period. Whilst the Directors are confident that any potential future funding requirements for the Group will be successfully covered, the timing and costs of any additional funding remains uncertain. Should the Company be unsuccessful in obtaining such funding, there is a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt whether the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and therefore, whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

The Directors have discretion regarding the level and timing of expenditure to be incurred against forecast expenditure. Steps can be taken to contain operating and investment activities, ensuring the Group’s ability to manage the timing of cash flows to meet committed obligations of the business as and when they fall due.

46 Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2025

3. Significant accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the Group’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the financial results reported in the consolidated financial statements.

Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes would differ from these estimates if different assumptions were used, and different conditions existed.

The Group has identified the following areas where significant judgements, estimates and assumptions are required, and where actual results were to differ, may materially affect the financial position or financial results reported in future periods.

Share-based payments transactions

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by a combination of internal and external sources using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and independent third-party valuation which comprised of a hybrid option pricing model incorporating a Monte Carlo simulation.

Exploration and evaluation expenditure

The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on several factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related area of interest itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale.

Factors which could impact the future recoverability include the level or reserves and resources, future technological changes which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental obligations) and changes to commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, this will reduce profits and net assets in the period in which this determination is made.

In addition, exploration and evaluation expenditure is capitalised if rights to tenure of the area of interest are current and activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves.

Investment in joint venture

The Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment loss on its investment in joint venture. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the joint venture is impaired. If there is such evidence, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the joint venture and carrying value, and then recognises the loss within “Share of joint venture results” in the statement of profit or loss.

Upon loss of significant influence or joint control over the joint venture, the Group measures and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the joint venture upon loss of significant influence or joint control and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.

4. New and revised accounting standards and interpretations

The Group adopted all new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board that are relevant to its operations and are mandatory for the current financial reporting period beginning 1 July 2024. Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

5. Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM). The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments and has been identified as the Board. Current taxes and deferred taxes are not allocated to the segments as they are managed on a group basis.

The Group’s operating segments are as follows:

  • South Atlantic Project – Project consists of mineral sands tenements located in Brazil. On 28 February 2023, Sheffield executed a binding investment agreement (RGM Option Agreement) with Mineração Santa Elina Indústria e Comércio S/A. and Kromus Xi Fundo De Investimento Em Participações, owners of Rio Grande Mineração S/A (RGM). Please refer to Note 13 for additional information.

  • Thunderbird Project – Thunderbird consists of mineral sands tenements located in the Canning Basin that form part of the Thunderbird mineral sand mining operation held by Thunderbird Operations Pty Ltd, subsidiary of Kimberley Mineral Sands Pty Ltd (KMS). Please refer to Note 8 for additional information.

  • Other – Other exploration and evaluation activities, other investments and corporate expenses that are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered part of the core operation of any segment.

6. Financial risk management

The Group have exposure to the following risks from their use of financial instruments:

  • Interest rate risk;

  • Credit risk;

  • Liquidity risk; and

  • Foreign currency risk;

Risk management

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise of cash, receivables, payables and investments. The Group monitors and manages its exposure to key financial risks in accordance with the Group’s financial management policy.

48 Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2025

6. Financial risk management (continued)

Interest rate risk management

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as the Group holds cash at both fixed and floating interest rates. The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk is limited to the amount of interest income it can potentially earn on surplus cash deposits.

Credit risk management

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored, and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counterparties.

The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowance for losses, represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of the value of any collateral obtained.

Liquidity risk management

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Directors, who have built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group’s funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves and banking facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

8. Investment in joint venture

A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exist only when the decisions about relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

Interest in the investment in joint venture is accounted for using the equity method in the financial statements. Under the equity method, the investment in joint venture is initially recognised at cost. The carrying amount of the investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the share of net assets of the joint venture since the acquisition date. The statement of profit or loss reflects the share of the results of operations of the joint venture.

Kimberley Mineral Sands Pty Ltd Joint Venture

Kimberley Mineral Sands Pty Ltd (KMS) became jointly owned by Sheffield and YGH Australia Investment Pty Ltd (Yansteel) as at 12 March 2021. The Thunderbird mineral sands project (Thunderbird) was previously held by Sheffield through its 100% owned subsidiary KMS prior to the formation of the joint venture. The project is located in north-west Western Australia. Sheffield’s interest in KMS is accounted for using the equity method in the consolidated financial statements.

KMS is governed by a four-person Board of Directors with Sheffield and Yansteel each nominating, and being represented by, two directors. Key decisions require unanimous approval of both shareholders.

KMS made a Final Investment Decision (FID) to construct and develop the Thunderbird project on 7 October 2022. KMS reached financial close on a combined $315m senior loan facilities provided by Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (NAIF) and OMRF (Th) LLC, a related entity of Orion Mineral Royalty Fund (Orion). The Thunderbird project was fully funded through to first production.

(a) Joint venture - revenue from continuing operations

KMS primarily generates revenue from the sales of ilmenite and zircon concentrate to customers. Revenue is recognized when control of the product has passed to the customer. For zircon concentrate there are two performance obligations; with the first recognised when the product is loaded onto the ship and the second with revenue from shipping recognised over the period of the journey. For ilmenite concentrate sales, there is only one performance obligation, being the product is loaded onto the ship with revenue recognised at the time of collection.

(e) Joint venture – property, plant and equipment, right of use assets and mine assets under development

Property, plant and equipment

Plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:

Buildings 10 years Plant and equipment 2 to 10 years Motor vehicles 4 years Mining & processing infrastructure

Units of production over economically recoverable reserves of the mine

56 Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2025

8. Investment in joint venture (continued)

Right of use assets

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. The Group’s lease portfolio includes buildings, plant and equipment, these leases have an average of 10 years as the

An impairment review is undertaken for any right of use lease asset and shows indicators of impairment and an impairment loss is recognised against any right of use lease assets that is impaired. The right of use asset is depreciated over the lease term.

Mine properties and development

Mine development costs are accumulated when economically recoverable reserves have been identified and a decision to develop has occurred. This expenditure includes all capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure in respect of the area of interest, direct costs of construction, overheads and where applicable borrowing costs capitalised during construction. Once mining of the area can commence, the aggregated capitalised costs are classified under non-current assets as an appropriate class of property, plant and equipment. Accumulated mine development costs are depreciated on a units of production (UOP) basis over the economically recoverable reserves of the mine.

(f) Joint venture - borrowings

This Note 8 (f) (Joint venture – borrowings) should be read in conjunction with Note 8 (g) (Joint venture – prepayments and other financial liabilities).

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and redemption amount is recognised in the profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Fees paid on the establishment of the loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probably that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probably that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.

8. Investment in joint venture (continued)

As at 30 June 2025, the first principal repayment of US$11m was made, the facility is fully drawn. Total interest paid for the year was US$11.0m / A$17.0m (2024: US$11.2m / A$16.9m).

Debt Covenant

The following financial covenants apply to all KMS secured debt facilities which are tested on a semi-annual basis.

Compliance ratios:

  • Loan Life Cover Ratio is greater than 1.20:1

  • Project Life Cover Ratio greater than 1.50:1

  • Reserve Tail Ratio is greater than 20%

  • Debt Service Cover Ratio is greater than 1.10:1

Assessment:

As at 30 June 2025, the KMS loan life cover ratio was in breach of the covenant, with OMRF & NAIF providing written waivers deferring the requirement to test the covenants. As a result of the waiver being obtained before reporting date, the loan continues to be classified as a non-current liability in these financial statements.

(g) Joint venture – prepayments and other financial liabilities

This Note 8 (g) (Joint venture – prepayments and other financial liabilities) should be read in conjunction with Note 8 (f) (Joint venture – borrowings).

The Facility 2 Production Linked Loan Facility royalty arrangement contains a “make whole” condition. The key terms for the make whole amount are as below:

  • Triggered upon an acceleration (make whole) event occurring, being customary Events of Default for a facility of this type.

  • The amount due is the greater of:

  • a. An aggregate amount at that time of all payments made under the agreement including the royalty payments; and

  • b. An amount equal to the NPV of the lenders right to receive all of the payments made under this agreement including the royalty calculated on the basis of the expected price per tonne of each product.

An initial valuation of the make whole condition in conjunction with recognition of a financial liability and a corresponding recognition of a prepaid expense is required as at the issuance date of the loan. When the loan was fully drawn, the said prepaid expense will be recorded against the loan liability as a cost of the loan. The royalty prepayment is required to be recorded as an additional expense to the loan for the purposes of the Effective Interest Rate calculation. The make whole amount is effectively the present value of the expected royalty payment which will be expensed through the life of the loan. On each financial reporting date, the make whole amount is recalculated with any difference recognised through profit or loss.

9. Income tax

The income tax expense or benefit is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary difference and to unused tax losses.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

The deductible temporary difference and tax losses do not expire under current tax legislation. Deferred tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred tax liabilities

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except:

  • when the deferred tax liability arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or

  • when the taxable temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries or interests in joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

  • when the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or

  • when the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries or interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.

11. Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Impairment of trade and other receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered uncollectable are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly.

Security deposits are non-derivative financial assets with various fixed or determinable payments and maturities. They are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months which are then classified as non-current assets.

12. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss - Investment in Capital Metals Plc

Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. The fair value of the financial assets is determined with reference to quoted share price traded in active markets at each reporting date. The financial assets are derecognised and the carrying value written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering part or all of the financial asset.

Sri Lanka Project

On 18 March 2024, Sheffield acquired 34,500,000 ordinary shares in Capital Metals Plc (AIM: CMET) for a total consideration of £1,250,000. CMET is the owner of the Eastern Minerals Project in Sri Lanka. Sheffield have agreed to conditional terms to fund project development, providing Sheffield with the opportunity to acquire up to 50% of the Eastern Minerals Project.

Sheffield owns approximately 10% of the issued capital of CMET. On 28 May 2025, Sheffield exercised the anti-dilution right and acquired an additional 7,984,000 shares of CMET for a total consideration of £199,600.

13. Exploration and evaluation assets

Exploration and evaluation assets are initially measured at cost and include acquisition of rights to explore, studies, exploratory drilling, sampling and associated activities and an allocation of depreciation and amortised of assets used in exploration and evaluation activities. General and administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration and evaluation costs where they are related directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest.

The recoupment of costs carried forward in relation to areas of interest in the exploration and evaluation phases is dependent on the successful development and commercial exploitation or sale of the respective areas. Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred where the following conditions are satisfied:

  • the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and

  • at least one of the following conditions is also met:

  • the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or

  • exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the balance date reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing.

Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation asset is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in previous years.

South Atlantic Project

Sheffield has executed a binding investment agreement (RGM Option Agreement) with Mineração Santa Elina Indústria e Comércio S/A. and Kromos Xi Fundo De Investimento Em Participações, owners of Rio Grande Mineração S/A (RGM). The Project is located within the Rio Grande do Sul Coastal Plain, a region located in the southernmost state of Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul, along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. The tenements are held by RGM.

Sheffield will provide US$4.0m to fund project related activities over a 30-month period and earn an option to acquire up to 20% of RGM with the payment of a further US$11.0m (US$15.0m in total) to acquire a 20% interest. Should Sheffield elect to exercise the option, subject to various conditions being satisfied, including project financing being obtained and all funds required for project construction being secured, Sheffield may exercise a further option to increase its interest in RGM up to 80%.

Sheffield has considered that whilst the amounts advanced and the protective rights within the RGM Option Agreement meets the criteria within AASB 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation and classified and measured under AASB 9 Financial Instruments, the RGM Option Agreement may also be viewed as a customary option farm-in arrangement to be recognised under AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources . To that end, Sheffield maintains its disclosure in accordance with AASB 6.

66 Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2025

17. Reserves

The Company provides benefits to employees (including Directors) in the form of share-based payments whereby employees render services in exchange for shares or rights over shares (share-based payments). The cost of these share-based payments with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date they are granted. The value is determined using an appropriate valuation model.

The cumulative expense is recognised for share-based payments at each reporting date until vesting date and reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the number of awards, that will ultimately vest. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest, except for awards where vesting is conditional upon a market condition.

Where the terms of a share-based payment are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. In addition, an expense is recognised for any increase in the value of the transaction as a result of the modification as measured at the date of modification.

Where a share-based payment is cancelled (other than cancellation when a vesting condition has not been satisfied), it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately. However, if a new award is submitted for the cancelled award and designated as a replacement award on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new awards are treated as if they were a modification of the original award, as described in the previous paragraph.

Employee share option plan

Employees of the Group (including Directors) may be issued with options over ordinary shares of Sheffield. Options are issued for nil consideration and are subject to performance criteria established by the Directors of Sheffield. The objective of the grant of options to employees is to assist in the recruitment, retention, reward and motivation of the employees of the Group.

Options granted may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the date of expiry. The exercise price for employee options granted under the Employee Share Option Plan will be fixed by the Directors prior to the grant of the option. Each employee share option converts to one fully paid ordinary share of Sheffield. The options do not provide any dividend or voting rights and are not quoted on the Australian Securities Exchange.

Employee incentive plan

The Employee Incentive Plan was established to enable employees of the Group (including Directors) to be issued with performance rights entitling each participant to a fully paid ordinary share. The performance rights issued for nil consideration are issued in accordance with the terms and conditions approved at a General Meeting by shareholders and in accordance with performance criteria established by the Directors. The objective of the Employee Incentive Plan is to assist in the recruitment, reward, retention and motivation of employees of the Group.

Employees do not possess any rights to participate in the Employee Incentive Plan as participation is solely determined by the Directors. Performance rights convert to one fully paid ordinary share in Sheffield at an exercise price of nil upon meeting certain non-market-based performance conditions. The performance rights do not provide any dividend or voting rights and are not quoted on the Australian Securities Exchange. If an employee ceases to be employed by the Group within the period, the unvested performance rights will be forfeited.

The following performance rights were in place at the end of the year and are subject to the Company Performance Rights plan:

19. Loss per share

Basic loss per share is determined by dividing the loss after income tax by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share adjusted the figures used in the determination of basic loss per share by taking into account amounts unpaid on ordinary shares and any reduction in loss per share that will probably arise from the exercise of partly paid shares or options outstanding during the year.

The conversion of options and performance rights to shares for purposes of dilutive calculation is not required when the Group is in a loss position because the conversion would cause the loss position to decrease.

The Company’s basic and diluted loss per share are as follows:

2025 2024
Cents per Cents per
share share
From continuing operations
Basic loss per share (5.59) (8.19)
Diluted loss per share1 (5.59) (8.19)

Note 1: The potential ordinary shares are anti-dilutive so no change was made to the basic earnings per share.

The loss after income tax used in the calculation is as follows:

2025 2024
$’000 $’000
Earnings used in calculating earnings per share – continuing operations
Loss after income tax (22,050) (32,191)

The weighted average number of shares used in the calculation is as follows:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the Members of Sheffield Resources Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Sheffield Resources Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2025, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information, the consolidated entity disclosure statement and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2025 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and

  • (b) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (“the Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 2(c) in the financial report, which indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit

of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

In addition to the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report .

Other Information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2025 but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of:

  • (a) the financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 ; and

ANNUAL REPORT 2025 70

76 Sheffield Resources Limited Annual Report 2025

==> picture [134 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

(b) the consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , and

for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of:

  • (a) the financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and

  • (b) the consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • − Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

==> picture [134 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.

From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
