No Securities may be issued on the basis of this Prospectus later than 13 months after the date of this Prospectus.

No person is authorised to give information or to make any representation in connection with this Prospectus, which is not contained in this Prospectus. Any information or representation not so contained may not be relied on as having been authorised by the Company in connection with this Prospectus.

It is important that investors read this Prospectus in its entirety and seek professional advice where necessary. The Securities offered by this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative.

Applications for Securities offered pursuant to this Prospectus can only be submitted on an original Application Form.

This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been prepared in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public offering prospectus and is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

Representations contained in this Prospectus are made taking into account that the Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and certain matters are publicly available information or may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and professional advisers whom prospective investors may consult.

No Investment Advice

The information contained in this Prospectus is not financial product advice or investment advice and does not take into account your financial or investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs (including financial or taxation issues). You should seek professional advice from your accountant, financial adviser, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser before deciding to subscribe for Securities under this Prospectus to determine whether it meets your objectives, financial situation and needs.

Forward-looking statements

This Prospectus contains forward-looking statements which are identified by words such as ‘may’, ‘could’, ‘believes’, ‘estimates’, ‘targets’, ‘expects’, or ‘intends’ and other similar words that involve risks and uncertainties.

These statements are based on an assessment of present economic and operating conditions, and on a number of assumptions regarding future events and actions that, as at the date of this Prospectus, are expected to take place.

Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are beyond the control of the

Company, the Directors and the Company’s management.

The Company cannot and does not give any assurance that the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus will actually occur and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forwardlooking statements.

The Company has no intention to update or revise forward-looking statements, or to publish prospective financial information in the future, regardless of whether new information, future events or any other factors affect the information contained in this Prospectus, except where required by law.

These forward-looking statements are subject to various risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or anticipated in these statements. These risk factors are set out in Section 5.

Applicants outside Australia

The distribution of this Prospectus in jurisdictions outside Australia is restricted by law and persons who come into possession of this Prospectus should observe any of these restrictions, including those set out in Section 2.10. Any failure to comply with such restrictions may constitute a violation of applicable securities laws. This Prospectus does not constitute an offer of Securities in any jurisdiction where, or to any person to whom, it would be unlawful to issue in this Prospectus.

This Prospectus has been prepared for publication in Australia and may not be distributed outside Australia, except to institutional and professional investors in transactions exempt from local prospectus or registration requirements or investors who can participate in compliance with applicable securities laws.

No action or formality has been taken to register or qualify the Securities or the Offers, or to otherwise permit a public offering of Securities in any jurisdiction outside Australia.

For further information on overseas investors and Shareholders please refer to Section 2.10.

Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Securities.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the three months before the issue of this

i

Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Please refer to Section 6.2 for further details.

Electronic Prospectus

A copy of this Prospectus can be downloaded from the website of the Company at www.stgm.com.au. If you are accessing the electronic version of this Prospectus for the purpose of making an investment in the Company, you must be an Australian resident and must only access this Prospectus from within Australia.

The Corporations Act prohibits any person passing onto another person an Application Form unless it is attached to a hard copy of this Prospectus or it accompanies the complete and unaltered version of this Prospectus. You may obtain a hard copy of this Prospectus free of charge by contacting the Company by phone on +61 8 6118 2118 during office hours or by emailing the Company at [email protected].

The Company reserves the right not to accept an Application Form from a person if it has reason to believe that when that person was given access to the electronic Application Form, it was not provided together with the electronic Prospectus and any relevant supplementary or replacement prospectus or any of those documents were incomplete or altered.

Target Market Determination

In accordance with the design and distribution obligations under the Corporations Act, the Company has determined the target market for the offer of Options issued under this Prospectus. The Company will only distribute this Prospectus to those investors who fall within the target market determination ( TMD ) as set out on the Company’s website (www.stgm.com.au).

Company Website

No documents or other information available on the Company’s website is incorporated into this Prospectus by reference.

Financial forecasts

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.

Electronic sub-registers also mean ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation. Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

Definitions and Time

Unless the contrary intention appears or the context otherwise requires, words and phrases contained in this Prospectus have the same meaning and interpretation as given in the Corporations Act and capitalised terms have the meaning given in the Glossary in Section 8.

All references to time in this Prospectus are references to Australian Western Standard Time.

Privacy statement

If you complete an Application Form, you will be providing personal information to the Company. The Company collects, holds and will use that information to assess your Application, service your needs as a Shareholder and to facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications to you as a Shareholder.

The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, including bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the share registry.

You can access, correct and update the personal information that we hold about you. If you wish to do so, please contact the share registry at the relevant contact number set out in this Prospectus.

Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (as amended), the Corporations Act and certain rules such as the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the Application for Securities, the Company may not be able to accept or process your Application.

Enquiries

If you are in any doubt as to how to deal with any of the matters raised in this Prospectus, you should consult with your broker or legal, financial or other professional adviser without delay. Should you have any questions about the Offers or how to accept the Offers please call the Company Secretary on +61 8 6118 2118.

Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS) and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company will apply to participate in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company.

Electronic sub-registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with statements (similar to a bank account statement) that set out the number of Securities issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

2

4. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SECURITIES

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to Securities being offered pursuant to this Prospectus. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

4.1 Rights and liabilities attaching to Shares

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are set out in the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

(a) General meetings

Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company. The Company’s constitution permits the use of technology at general meetings of shareholders (including wholly virtual meetings) to the extent permitted under the Corporations Act, Listing Rules and applicable law.

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with section 249D of the Corporations Act and the Constitution of the Company.

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at general meetings of shareholders or classes of shareholders:

  • (i) each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative;

  • (ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder has one vote; and

  • (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder shall, in respect of each fully paid Share held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for each Share held, but in respect of partly paid shares shall have such number of votes as bears the same proportion to the total of such Shares registered in the Shareholder’s name as the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

(c) Dividend rights

Subject to the rights of any preference Shareholders and to the rights of the holders of any shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividend, the Directors may from time to time declare a dividend to be paid to the Shareholders entitled to the dividend which shall be payable on all Shares according to the proportion that the amount paid (not credited) is of the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) in respect of such Shares.

The Directors may from time to time pay to the Shareholders any interim dividends as they may determine. No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company. The Directors may set aside out of the profits of the Company any amounts that they may determine as reserves, to be applied at the discretion of the Directors, for any purpose for which the profits of the Company may be properly applied.

Subject to the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, the Company may, by resolution of the Directors, implement a dividend reinvestment plan on such terms and conditions as the Directors think fit and which provides for any dividend which the Directors may declare from time to time payable on Shares which are participating Shares in the dividend reinvestment plan, less any amount which the Company shall either pursuant to the Constitution or any law be entitled or obliged to retain, be applied by the Company to the payment of the subscription price of Shares.

9

(d) Winding-up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, divide among the Shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

(e) Shareholder liability

As the Shares issued will be fully paid shares, they will not be subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(f) Transfer of shares

Generally, shares in the Company are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules.

(g) Future increase in capital

The issue of any new Shares is under the control of the Directors of the Company. Subject to restrictions on the issue or grant of Shares contained in the ASX Listing Rules, the Constitution and the Corporations Act (and without affecting any special right previously conferred on the holder of an existing share or class of shares), the Directors may issue Shares as they shall, in their absolute discretion, determine.

(h) Variation of rights

Under Section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to Shares.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three quarters of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(i) Alteration of Constitution

In accordance with the Corporations Act, the Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. In addition, at least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

5. RISK FACTORS

5.1 Introduction

The Securities offered under this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative and an investment in the Company is not risk free.

The Directors strongly recommend that prospective investors to consider the risk factors set out in this Section 5, together with information contained in this Prospectus.

The future performance of the Company and the value of the Securities may be influenced by a range of factors, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The key risks associated with the Company’s business, the industry in which it operates and general risks applicable to all investments in listed securities and financial markets generally are described below.

The risks factors set out in this Section 5, or other risk factors not specifically referred to, may have a materially adverse impact on the performance of the Company and the value of the Securities. This Section 5 is not intended to provide an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

If you do not understand any matters contained in this Prospectus or have any queries about whether to invest in the Company, you should consult your accountant, financial adviser, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser.

5.2 Company specific

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Additional
requirements for
capital
The Company’s capital requirements depend on numerous
factors. The Company will require financing in the future to meet
the remaining payments to the vendor of the Araxá Project as
well as to continue exploration and development activities. Any
additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and debt
financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and
operating activities. If the Company is unable to obtain financing
as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its
operations and scale back its exploration programmes as the
case may be. There is however no guarantee that the Company
will be able to secure funding or be able to secure funding on
terms favourable to the Company.
Exploration and
operating
The Company’s projects are at various stages of exploration, and
potential investors should understand that mineral exploration
and development are high-risk undertakings. There can be no
assurance that future exploration of any of the projects, will result
in the discovery of an economic resource. Even if an apparently
viable resource is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be
economically exploited.
The future exploration activities of the Company may be
affected by a range of factors including geological conditions,
limitations on activities due to seasonal weather patterns or
adverse weather conditions, unanticipated operational and
technical difficulties, difficulties in commissioning and operating
plant and equipment, mechanical failure or plant breakdown,
unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect
extraction costs, industrial and environmental accidents,
industrial disputes, unexpected shortages and increases in the
costs of consumables, spare parts, plant, equipment and staff,
native title process, changing government regulations and many
other factors beyond the control of the Company.
The success of the Company will also depend upon the
Company being able to maintain title to the mineral exploration
licences comprising the projects and obtaining all required
approvals for their contemplated activities. In the event that

13

RISK CATEGORY RISK
exploration programmes prove to be unsuccessful this could
lead to a diminution in the value of the project, a reduction in the
cash reserves of the Company and possible relinquishment of
one or more of the mineral exploration licences comprising that
project.
Tenure Mining and exploration tenements are subject to periodic
renewal. The renewal of the term of granted tenements are
subject to the applicable mining acts and regulations in Brazil
and the discretion of the relevant mining authority. Renewal
conditions may include increased expenditure and work
commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the
tenements. The imposition of new conditions or the inability to
meet those conditions may adversely affect the operations,
financial position and/or performance of the Company.
The Company considers the likelihood of tenure forfeiture to be
low given the laws and regulations governing mineral tenements
in Brazil and the ongoing expenditure budgeted for by the
Company. Tenements 832.150/1989 and 831.436/1988 are
subject to renewal and extension applications to ANM (the
relevant mining authority). There is no certainty that the renewal
and extension requests will be granted or granted on conditions
that are acceptable. Tenement 831.972/1985 is an application
for a mining concession that is progressing through the
application process. There is no certainty that the application will
be granted or granted on conditions that are acceptable.
Exploration Risk No assurance can be given that exploration will be successful or
that a commercial mining operation will eventuate.
The ultimate success and financial viability of the Company
depends on the discovery and delineation of economically
recoverable ore reserves, design and construction of efficient
mining and processing facilities, and competent operational and
managerial performance.
There is no assurance that exploration and development of the
mineral interests held by the Company (which are all at an
exploration and development stage), or any other projects that
may be acquired by the Company in the future, will result in the
discovery of an economic deposit. Even if an apparently viable
deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be
profitablyexploited.
Exploration Costs The exploration costs of the Company are based on certain
assumptions with respect to the method and timing of
exploration. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions are
subject to significant uncertainties and, accordingly, the actual
costs may materially differ from these estimates and assumptions.
Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the cost estimates
and the underlying assumptions will be realised in practice, which
maymateriallyand adverselyaffect the Company’s viability.
Access The tenements comprising the Araxá Project are situated on
private land. Access to the tenements to carry out exploration
and potential mining operations must be agreed with the
landowners, being the government-owned CODEMIG and
CBMM. Access arrangements have been agreed in the past to
allow drilling and other exploration to be carried out on the
tenements. There is no certainty as to the timing of further access
arrangements.
The suppression of vegetation at the Araxá tenements requires
approval from a number ofgovernment authorities. These kind of

14

RISK CATEGORY RISK
approvals have been granted previously for exploration and
mining at the Barreiro Carbonatite. There is no certainty that
similar approvals will be granted in the future or granted on
conditions that are acceptable.
Resource and
reserves and
exploration targets
The Company has identified a number of exploration targets
based on geological interpretations and limited geophysical
data, geochemical sampling and historical drilling. Insufficient
data however, exists to provide certainty over the extent of the
mineralisation. Whilst the Company intends to undertake
additional exploratory work with the aim of defining a resource,
no assurances can be given that additional exploration will result
in the determination of a resource on any of the exploration
targets identified. Even if a resource is identified no assurance
can be provided that this can be economically extracted.
Reserve and resource estimates are expressions of judgement
based on knowledge, experience and industry practice.
Estimates which were valid when initially calculated may alter
significantly when new information or techniques become
available. In addition, by their very nature, resource and reserve
estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on
interpretations which may prove to be inaccurate.
Grant of future
authorisations to
explore and mine
If the Company discovers an economically viable mineral
deposit that it then intends to develop, it will, among other things,
require various approvals, licence and permits before it will be
able to mine the deposit. There is no guarantee that the
Company will be able to obtain all required approvals, licenses
and permits. To the extent that required authorisations are not
obtained or are delayed, the Company’s operational and
financial performance may be materially adversely affected.
Environmental The operations and proposed activities of the Company at the
Araxá Project are subject to laws and regulations concerning the
environment. As with most exploration projects and mining
operations, the Company’s activities are expected to have an
impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration
or mine development proceeds. It is the Company’s intention to
conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental
obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.
Mining operations have inherent risks and liabilities associated
with safety and damage to the environment and the disposal of
waste products occurring as a result of mineral exploration and
production. The occurrence of any such safety or environmental
incident could delay production or increase production costs.
Events, such as unpredictable rainfall or bushfires may impact on
the Company’s ongoing compliance with environmental
legislation, regulations and licences. Significant liabilities could
be imposed on the Company for damages, clean up costs or
penalties in the event of certain discharges into the environment,
environmental damage caused by previous operations or non-
compliance with environmental laws or regulations.
Approvals are required for land clearing and for ground
disturbing activities. Delays in obtaining such approvals can result
in the delay to anticipated exploration programmes or mining
activities.
Some areas within the project site are a listing and preservation
zone by the municipality, according to the current master plan,
recognized by Brazil and the State of Minas Gerais, according to
the Geoenvironmental Studyof Hydromineral Sources/Araxá

15

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Project conducted by CPRM/Geological Service of Brazil. This
classification is designed to protect water resources and
vegetation within the designated area. Approvals are required
from the relevant authorities to conduct exploration and mining
activities in these areas, presenting a significant environmental
management risk to the project. There is no certainty that
approvals will be granted in the future or granted on conditions
that are acceptable.
Climate Risk There are a number of climate-related factors that may affect
the operations and proposed activities of the Company. The
climate change risks particularly attributable to the Company
include:
(a)
the emergence of new or expanded regulations
associated with the transitioning to a lower-carbon
economy and market changes related to climate
change mitigation. The Company may be impacted by
changes
to
local
or
international
compliance
regulations related to climate change mitigation
efforts, or by specific taxation or penalties for carbon
emissions or environmental damage. These examples sit
amongst an array of possible restraints on industry that
may further impact the Company and its profitability.
While the Company will endeavour to manage these
risks and limit any consequential impacts, there can be
no guarantee that the Company will not be impacted
by these occurrences; and
(b)
climate change may cause certain physical and
environmental risks that cannot be predicted by the
Company, including events such as increased severity
of weather patterns and incidence of extreme weather
events and longer-term physical risks such as shifting
climate patterns. All these risks associated with climate
change may significantly change the industry in which
the Company operates.
Mine development Possible future development of mining operations is dependent
on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the
acquisition and/or delineation of economically recoverable
mineralisation, favourable geological conditions, receiving the
necessary approvals from all relevant authorities and parties,
seasonal weather patterns, unanticipated technical and
operational
difficulties
encountered
in
extraction
and
production activities, mechanical failure of operating plant and
equipment, shortages or increases in the price of consumables,
spare parts and plant and equipment, cost overruns, access to
the required level of funding and contracting risk from third
parties providing essential services.
If the Company commences production on one of its projects, its
operations may be disrupted by a variety of risks and hazards
which are beyond the control of the Company. No assurance
can be given that the Company will achieve commercial
viability through the development of any of its projects.
The risks associated with the development of a mine will be
considered in full should any of the Company’s projects reach
that stage and will be managed with ongoing consideration of
stakeholder interests.
Regulatory risk The
Company’s
operations
are
subject
to
various
Commonwealth,State,local and foreign countrylaws andplans,

16

RISK CATEGORY RISK
including those relating to mining, prospecting, development
permit
and
licence
requirements,
industrial
relations,
environmental, land use, royalties, water, native title and cultural
heritage, mine safety and occupational health.
Approvals, licences and permits required to comply with such
rules are subject to the discretion of the applicable government
officials. No assurance can be given that the Company will be
successful in maintaining such authorisations in full force and
effect without modification or revocation. To the extent such
approvals are required and not retained or obtained in a timely
manner or at all, the Company may be curtailed or prohibited
from continuing or proceeding with exploration.
The Company’s business and results of operations could be
adversely affected if applications lodged for exploration
licences are not granted. Mining and exploration tenements are
subject to periodic renewal. The renewal of the term of a granted
tenement is also subject to the discretion of the relevant Minister.
Renewal conditions may include increased expenditure and
work commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the
tenements comprising the Company’s projects. The imposition of
new conditions or the inability to meet those conditions may
adversely affect the operations, financial position and/or
performance of the Company.
It is also possible that, in relation to tenements which the
Company has an interest in or will in the future acquire such an
interest in, there may be areas over which legitimate common
law native title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. If native title
rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to
tenements (through obtaining consent of
any relevant
landowner), or to progress from the exploration phase to the
development and mining phases of operations may be affected.
The Company may also be unable to obtain land access from
landowners due to an inability to negotiate an agreement.
Availability of
Equipment and
Contractors
In the past few years, various equipment and consumables
including drill rigs and drill bits, have been in short supply. There
was also high demand for contractors providing other services to
the mining industry. Consequently, there is a risk that the
Company may not be able to source all the equipment and
contractors required to fulfil its proposed activities. There is also a
risk that hired contractors may underperform or that equipment
may malfunction, either of which may affect the progress of the
Company’s activities.

5.3 Industry specific

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Competition risk The industry in which the Company is involved is subject to
domestic and global competition. Although the Company will
undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions
and operations, the Company will have no influence or control
over the activities or actions of its competitors, which activities or
actions may, positively or negatively, affect the operating and
financial performance of the Company’s projects and business.
Commodity price
volatility and
exchange rate risks
If the Company achieves success leading to mineral production,
the revenue it will derive through the sale of product exposes the
potential income of the Company to commodity price and
exchange rate risks. Commodity prices fluctuate and are
affected bymanyfactors beyond the control of the Company.

17

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Such factors include supply and demand fluctuations for
precious and base metals, technological advancements,
forward selling activities and other macro-economic factors.
Furthermore, international prices of various commodities are
denominated in United States dollars, whereas the income and
expenditure of the Company will be taken into account in
Australian currency, exposing the Company to the fluctuations
and volatility of the rate of exchange between the United States
dollar and the Australian dollar as determined in international
markets.
Government policy
changes
Adverse changes in government policies or legislation may
affect ownership of mineral interests, taxation, royalties, land
access, labour relations, and mining and exploration activities of
the Company. It is possible that the current system of exploration
and mine permitting may change in Australia, Brazil and foreign
countries in which the Company operates, resulting in
impairment of rights and possibly expropriation of the
Company’s properties without adequate compensation.
Insurance The Company intends to insure its operations in accordance with
industry practice. However, in certain circumstances the
Company’s insurance may not be of a nature or level to provide
adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is
not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material
adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of
the Company.
Insurance of all risks associated with mineral exploration and
production is not always available and where available the costs
can be prohibitive.
Resource and
reserves and
exploration targets
Reserve and resource estimates are expressions of judgement
based on knowledge, experience and industry practice.
Estimates which were valid when initially calculated may alter
significantly when new information or techniques become
available. In addition, by their very nature resource and reserve
estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on
interpretations which may prove to be inaccurate.

5.4 General risks

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Economic General economic conditions, movements in interest and
inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an
adverse effect on the Company’s exploration, development
and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those
activities.
Market conditions Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s
quoted
securities
regardless
of
the
Company’s
operating
performance. Share market conditions are affected by many
factors such as:
(a)
general economic outlook;
(b)
introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;
(c)
interest rates and inflation rates;
(d)
changes in investor sentiment toward particular market
sectors;
(e)
the demand for, and supply of, capital; and
(f)
terrorism or other hostilities.

18

RISK CATEGORY RISK
The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be
subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for
equities in general and resource exploration stocks in particular.
Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future
performance of the Company or any return on an investment in
the Company.
Litigation risks The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to possible
litigation risks including intellectual property claims, contractual
disputes, occupational health and safety claims and employee
claims. Further, the Company and its subsidiaries may be
involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may
result in litigation. Any such claim or dispute if proven, may
impact adversely on the Company’s operations, financial
performance and financial position. The Company and its
subsidiaries are not currently engaged in any litigation.
Dividends Any future determination as to the payment of dividends by the
Company will be at the discretion of the Directors and will
depend on the financial condition of the Company, future
capital requirements and general business and other factors
considered relevant by the Directors. No assurance in relation to
the payment of dividends or franking credits attaching to
dividends can be given by the Company.
Taxation The acquisition and disposal of Securities will have tax
consequences, which will differ depending on the individual
financial affairs of each investor. All prospective investors in the
Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice
about the consequences of acquiring Securities from a taxation
viewpoint and generally.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its
officers and each of their respective advisors accept no liability
and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of
subscribing for Securities under this Prospectus.
Reliance on key
personnel
The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and
the
strategic
management
of
the
Company
depends
substantially on its senior management and its key personnel.
There can be no assurance given that there will be no
detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these
employees cease their employment.
The Company’s future depends, in part, on its ability to attract
and retain key personnel. It may not be able to hire and retain
such personnel at compensation levels consistent with its existing
compensation and salary structure. Its future also depends on
the continued contributions of its executive management team
and other key management and technical personnel, the loss of
whose services would be difficult to replace. In addition, the
inability to continue to attract appropriately qualified personnel
could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
business.
Economic conditions
and other global or
national issues
General economic conditions, laws relating to taxation, new
legislation, trade barriers, movements in interest and inflation
rates, currency exchange controls and rates, national and
international political circumstances (including outbreaks in
international hostilities, wars, terrorist acts, sabotage, subversive
activities, security operations, labour unrest, civil disorder, and
states
of
emergency),
natural
disasters
(including
fires,
earthquakes and floods), and quarantine restrictions, epidemics
andpandemics,mayhave an adverse effect on the Company’s

19

RISK CATEGORY RISK
operations and financial performance, including the Company’s
exploration, development and production activities, as well as
on its ability to fund those activities.
General economic conditions may also affect the value of the
Company and its market valuation regardless of its actual
performance.
Global Conflicts The current evolving conflict between Ukraine and Russia and
Israel and Palestine (Ukraine and Gaza Conflicts) is impacting
global economic markets. The nature and extent of the effect of
the Ukraine and Gaza Conflicts on the performance of the
Company remains unknown. The Company’s Share price may
be adversely affected in the short to medium term by the
economic uncertainty caused by the Ukraine and Gaza
Conflicts.
The Directors are continuing to closely monitor the potential
secondary and tertiary macroeconomic impacts of the
unfolding events, including the changing pricing of commodity
and energy markets and the potential of cyber activity
impacting
governments
and
businesses.
Further,
any
governmental or industry measures taken in response to the
Ukraine and Gaza Conflicts, including limitations on travel and
changes to import/export restrictions and arrangements
involving the relevant countries may adversely impact the
Company’s operations and are likely to be beyond the control
of the Company.
The Company is monitoring the situation closely and considers
the impact of the Ukraine and Gaza Conflicts on the Company’s
business and financial performance to, at this stage, be limited.
However, the situation is continually evolving, and the
consequences are therefore inevitably uncertain.

5.5 Speculative investment

The risk factors described above, and other risk factors not specifically referred to, may have a materially adverse impact on the performance of the Company and the value of the Securities.

Prospective investors should consider that an investment in the Company is highly speculative.

Remuneration

The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process. The total maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is initially set by the Constitution and subsequent variation is by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of non-executive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director. The current amount has been set at an amount not to exceed $500,000 per annum.

A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (ie non-cash performance incentives such as Options, subject to any necessary Shareholder approval) as the other Directors determine where a Director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director. In addition, Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.

The following table shows the total annual remuneration paid to both executive and nonexecutive Directors which will be disclosed in the Company’s upcoming Annual Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2025 and proposed annual remuneration for the financial year ending 30 June 2026.
