Speewah Fluorite Project (WA; Tivan 92.5%)
The Speewah Fluorite Project is located 100km south of the port of Wyndham, and 110km south-west of Kununurra, in the Kimberley region of north-east Western Australia.
The project hosts one of the largest high-grade fluorite resources globally, with a JORC Code (2012) Mineral Resource estimate of 37.3 million tonnes at 9.1% CaF ₂ (at a 2% CaF ₂ cut-off grade) for 3.39 million tonnes CaF ₂ . The resource includes a high-grade component of 8.6 million tonnes at 22.8% CaF ₂ (at a 10% CaF ₂ cut-off grade) for 1.95 million tonnes CaF ₂ (refer to the Mineral Resource tables in Appendix A ).
Tivan is focused on development planning for a mining and processing operation of fluorite ore to produce acid grade fluorspar, in joint venture with Sumitomo Corporation and Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security. Fluorite ore is used to produce commercial grade fluorspar products and fluorine; industrial applications include steel, aluminium and chemical manufacturing, and emerging sectors such as next-generation lithium-ion batteries, solar cells and semiconductor manufacturing. In December 2023, the Australian Government added fluorine to Australia’s Critical Minerals List, in recognition of its role in strategically important industries and lack of production in-country.
Establishment of the Speewah Fluorite Project JV; JOGMEC agrees equity interest
On 21 July 2025, the Company announced that all conditions required for the establishment of the incorporated joint venture between Tivan and Sumitomo Corporation for the Speewah Fluorite Project had been satisfied. Tivan also announced Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (“JOGMEC”) as a strategic equity partner in the Project. Sumitomo Corporation executed binding agreements with JOGMEC under which JOGMEC will hold a 49% equity interest in Sumitomo’s special purpose subsidiary Japan Fluorite Corporation (“JFC”).
JFC made an initial $5.3 million equity investment in the IJV for an initial 7.5% equity interest (“Tranche 1”). Funds from the Tranche 1 investment will be used to fund progression of the Feasibility Study for the project.
Securing JOGMEC as a strategic equity partner in the IJV is a landmark accomplishment for Tivan, facilitated through an extensive due diligence process over the prior 9 months. This included comprehensive technical workshops across geology, metallurgy and project development, and a site visit the Speewah Fluorite Project by representatives of Sumitomo Corporation and JOGMEC in November 2024. Tivan has now secured the involvement of two of Japan’s most respected organisations in the project, further strengthening the important bilateral relationship in critical minerals between Australia and Japan.
Project financing advances with EFA and NAIF
On 28 July 2025, the Company announced receipt of a non-binding and conditional Letter of Support from Export Finance Australia (“EFA”) and progression into the Due Diligence Phase with the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (“NAIF”) for potential debt funding for the Speewah Fluorite Project. EFA’s support, subject to due diligence, aligns with its mandate to finance strategic export projects, while NAIF’s progression marks completion of the Strategic Assessment Phase, confirming early-stage alignment with its critical minerals funding program.
EFA is Australia’s export credit agency, providing commercial finance for export trade and overseas infrastructure development that delivers benefits to Australia. EFA administers the Australia Government’s National Interest Account, which currently includes the Critical Minerals Facility, the Defence Export Facility, the Southeast Asia Investment Financing Facility and lending for the Australian Infrastructure Financing Facility for the Pacific.
NAIF is a Commonwealth Government financier, providing concessional loans for the development of infrastructure projects in Northern Australia. In 2023 NAIF earmarked $500m of funding to develop critical minerals projects.
Speewah Fluorite Project receives funding from IPCM grant
The Company announced in December 2024 the award of a $7.4 million cash grant under the Australian Government’s International Partnerships in Critical Minerals (“IPCM”) Program (see ASX announcement 6 December 2024). The grant will in part fund the Feasibility and Definitive Feasibility Studies and associated workstreams for the Speewah Fluorite Project ahead of a final investment decision.
On 7 August 2025, Tivan announced that a cash amount of $2 million (net of GST) has been received under the IPCM grant. In addition, a Deed of Novation has been executed with the Commonwealth of Australia to novate the IPCM grant agreement from Tivan to Fluorite SPV Pty Ltd (“Fluorite SPV”), the Project owner and vehicle for the incorporated joint venture between Tivan, Sumitomo Corporation and JOGMEC.
Grant funding totalling $3.25 million (net of GST) has been received to date. The second payment instalment was made direct to Fluorite SPV. Further payments totalling $4.15 million will also be made direct to Fluorite SPV, scheduled in 2026.

Further excellent testwork results for Speewah Fluorite Project
On 2 September 2025, Tivan announced it had continued to deliver excellent testwork results as part of the program developed in support of Feasibility Study design and engineering for the Speewah Fluorite Project. Acidgrade fluorspar grades of up to 99% calcium fluorite (CaF2) were achieved, relative to the product standard specification of 97% CaF2, using diamond core sourced from the Q4 2024 drilling campaign.
The testwork results validate the previously announced outcomes of the 2024 optimisation program which delivered grades of up to 98.8% CaF2 (see ASX announcement of 19 March 2025).
Results of the testwork program are being incorporated into the Feasibility Study and will support development of further metallurgical testwork required for the Definitive Feasibility Study that will follow.
In addition, Tivan advised that preliminary testwork has been completed to assess the amenability of the Speewah orebody to ore sorting technology. Ore sorting is a dry physical beneficiation process that is commonly used in the fluorite industry for upgrading crushed ore. For the Speewah Fluorite Project, ore sorting offers an opportunity to reject gangue (non-ore material) ahead of milling. The results from the ore sorting sighter test were very promising, achieving 56% mass rejection on a -31.5+10 mm sample.
Tivan is now investigating the potential for the introduction of ore sorting technology into the process flowsheet. Ore sorting offers a range of potential development, operational and economic benefits to the project, including reduction of process plant equipment sizing (including the mill), water consumption, tailings tonnages, operating costs and sustaining capital costs, as well as a reduction in environmental impacts, including carbon emissions. Tivan has engaged Lycopodium and Orway Mineral Consultants to prepare a concept study for the introduction of ore sorting into the process flowsheet.
Tivan also announced details of further testwork to be undertaken following completion of the current phase of testwork, and that acidgrade fluorite product samples were being prepared for end-users in Asia as part of the offtake marketing program with Sumitomo Corporation.
Sandover Fluorite Project (NT; 100%)
The Sandover Fluorite Project is a highly prospective fluorite project acquired by Tivan in November 2024, located approximately 230km north-east of Alice Springs. The project was acquired following a comprehensive internal assessment for the most prospective fluorite mineralisation areas across Australia and is highly synergistic, allowing Tivan to integrate and leverage workflows and capabilities from the Speewah Fluorite Project and the adjacent Molyhil Project (see below for further details).
Surface mineralisation, ultra-high grades and the absence of deleterious elements indicate a Tier 1 global deposit, highly amenable to project development.
Tivan and Sumitomo Corporation agree MoU for Sandover Fluorite Project
On 21 July 2025, the Company announced that it and its wholly owned subsidiary Sandover SPV1 Pty Ltd (“SPV1”) had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”) with Sumitomo Corporation for the Sandover Fluorite Project. Under the MoU, the parties have agreed to engage in good faith discussions with the intent of negotiating commercial agreements for the collaborative development, financing, operation, marketing and distribution of product from the project. Under the MoU:
-
The parties have agreed to engage in good faith discussions on potential collaboration for joint development planning, funding, construction and operation of the project.
-
Tivan will facilitate due diligence on the project including providing to Sumitomo Corporation completed Scoping and Pre-Feasibility Studies undertaken for the metspar and/or acidgrade fluorspar production pathways.
-
The parties will engage in discussions on collaboration on an exclusive basis for a period up until 60 days post submission of the Pre-Feasibility Study (or Studies) to Sumitomo Corporation.
-
Tivan has granted Sumitomo Corporation a first right of refusal on the project for the term of the MoU should Tivan intend to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of an interest in the project.
-
The MoU has an end date of 31 December 2026 unless terminated earlier in accordance with the MoU.
-
Formalisation of collaboration between the parties is subject to the negotiation and execution of commercial agreements.
-
No party is bound to enter into any commercial agreement contemplated under the MoU.
==> picture [596 x 69] intentionally omitted <==
The MoU is the second project collaboration between Tivan and Sumitomo Corporation, demonstrating the strength of the strategic relationship fostered between the parties over the prior year and the commercial pathway Tivan has forged in the emerging fluorite sector in Australia.
Tivan previously published a project schedule targeting commencement of drilling at the project in Q4 2025 (see ASX announcement of 13 February 2025). An updated schedule was provided in the announcement of 21 July 2025.
Tivan signs Mineral Exploration Deed for Sandover Fluorite Project
On 18 August 2025, Tivan announced signing of a Mineral Exploration Deed with the Central Land Council on behalf of Traditional Owners and Native Title Holders for the Sandover Fluorite Project covering all project tenements (EL34050, MLS79, MLS86, ML33903, ML33904, ML33905).
The Deed sets out how Tivan will conduct exploration activities at the project in a manner that recognises the rights and interests of Traditional Owners and Native Title Holders, including in respect of cultural heritage and sacred sites. The Deed also provides for employment, training and business opportunities in connection with the project and provides a mechanism for economic participation during the exploration phase defined as a percentage of exploration activity expenditure.
The signing of the Deed is an important milestone for the Sandover Fluorite Project, providing Tivan with the consent of Traditional Owners and Native Title Holders to undertake site-based works including a proposed maiden drilling program. Surface sampling results have facilitated target generation and development of a drill plan for this program.
Tivan secures regulatory approval to commence drilling at the Sandover Fluorite Project
Subsequent to the end of the quarter on 17 October 2025, the Company announced it had secured the final regulatory approval from the Northern Territory Department of Lands, Planning and Environment to facilitate commencement of its maiden drilling program at the Sandover Fluorite Project.
The drill program has been designed to test high-grade fluorite veins identified through two recently completed surface sampling and mapping programs in December 2024 and April/May 2025 which identified multiple priority target veins for drilling (see ASX announcements of 14 January 2025 and 16 June 2025).
The drilling program has been further refined into two stages to ensure an efficient and systematic approach to testing high-priority targets. Stage 1 prioritises high-grade fluorite targets via diamond core drilling, with a total of 11 diamond core holes planned for 855 metres drilled. The program aims to assess the extent and grade of mineralisation at known fluorite veins and provide initial core sample for preliminary metallurgical assessment, in support of project study phases in 2026.
Stage 2 will focus on assessing additional targets through reverse circulation (RC) drilling, informed by geological interpretations and results obtained from Stage 1. Stage 2 entails 54 RC holes planned for 5,865 metres drilled. This staged approach ensures that subsequent drilling is strategically directed toward areas with the greatest potential for resource definition at the Sandover Fluorite Project. Stage 2 drilling is expected to commence in February 2026, following a period of downtime for Tivan’s geology team.
Tivan submitted an exploration mining licence application (with modified conditions) under the Environmental Protection Act 2019 seeking approval to undertake ground-disturbing activities at the Project, including the drilling program and related civil works. Tivan’s regulatory approval is provided under the updated risk criteria and standard conditions for exploration issued under Section 124ZG of the Environmental Protection Act 2019. The approval authorises exploration drilling and associated activities.
Tivan’s geology team has also recently completed additional fieldworks, in conjunction with the Company’s due diligence prior to acquiring the Molyhil Project, and in preparation for the drilling campaign at the Sandover Fluorite Project. These fieldworks involved the collection of an additional 45 rock chip samples from different locations on tenements EL22349 (Molyhil) and EL34050 (Sandover Fluorite).
As part of the acquisition of the Molyhil Project, Tivan is also taking assignment of all split commodity mineral rights held on tenements comprising the Sandover Fluorite Project. Tivan expects to report assays from these fieldworks in November, including for any non-fluorite mineralisation.

Molyhil Project (NT; 100%)
Tivan acquires 100% of the Molyhil Project
On 16 September 2025, Tivan announced it had signed a Binding Term Sheet with Fram Resources Pty Ltd (“Fram”), a subsidiary of ASX-listed Investigator Resources Limited (“Investigator”; ASX: IVR) and Molyhil Mining Pty Ltd (“Molyhil”), a subsidiary of ASX-listed Thor Energy Plc (“Thor”; ASX & AIM: THR, OTCQB: THORF) to acquire 100% of the Molyhil Tungsten-Molybdenum Project.
The project is located approximately 220km north-east of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory and hosts a JORC Code (2012) Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate of 4.647 million tonnes at 0.26% WO3 (tungsten trioxide) and 0.09% Mo (molybdenum) (0.05% WO3 cut-off grade) for 12,100 tonnes of WO3 and 4,400 tonnes of molybdenum (refer to the Mineral Resource tables in Appendix A ). The Molyhil Tungsten-Molybdenum Project also includes an operational production water bore, which is essential for any planned project development and operation.
Tungsten and molybdenum are listed on the Australian Government’s Critical Minerals List, highlighting their importance to Australia’s economy and national interests, and vulnerability to supply chain disruption. Both metals are also included on Japan’s list of designated “rare metals” for stockpiling and listed as critical or strategic minerals by a number of major economies including the US, the EU, China, the UK and Canada. Tungsten and molybdenum are used in the defence, automotive, semiconductor and clean energy sectors.
The strategic rationale for undertaking the acquisition is summarised as follows:
-
Addition of high-value critical minerals to Tivan’s project pipeline, diversifying the Company’s portfolio, whilst leveraging in-house project development capabilities.
-
Highly favourable commodity price outlook with a significant re-rating of tungsten and molybdenum prices underway, supporting project valuation and access to joint venture financing.
-
Existing JORC Code (2012) Mineral Resource Estimate to underpin technical and project studies, whilst mitigating geological risk and expediting the pathway to production.
-
Highly significant infrastructure, operational and logistical synergies with the Sandover Fluorite Project, enabling planning for a long-life critical minerals precinct in central Australia.
-
Opportunity to leverage established commercial relationships to support project facilitation, and to develop the Molyhil Project on an inclusive and respectful basis with the Traditional Owners and Central Land Council.
The Board believes that Tivan’s comparative advantages, especially in terms of in-house technical capabilities, governmental relationships, standing with Traditional Owners in central Australia, access to finance and project facilitation partnerships in Japan, along with proximity to the Sandover Fluorite Project, provide a unique foundation from which to develop the Molyhil Project for the benefits of shareholders.
As part of the acquisition, Tivan will also take assignment of all mineral rights held by Investigator and Thor on tenements comprising the Company’s adjacent Sandover Fluorite Project (non-fluorite rights).
Consideration for the acquisition totals $8.75 million, comprised of initial cash payments ($3.5 million) and deferred payments ($5.25 million) in cash or shares (with a value equivalent to 50% of deferred payments, at Tivan’s election). The deferred payments comprise three equal annual payments.
Refer to the ASX announcement of 16 September 2025 full detail on the terms of the Binding Term Sheet including consideration payable and conditions for completion of the acquisition.
Turiscai Project (Timor-Leste; 100%)
The Turiscai Project is a copper-gold exploration project located in Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste. Covering an area of 344km² across seven contiguous Exploration and Evaluation Licences, the project is situated within a geological setting that hosts some of the world’s most significant copper-gold deposits including Grasberg (Central Papua, Indonesia), Ok Tedi (Papua New Guinea), Wafi-Golpu (Papua New Guinea) and Pangora (formerly referred to as Bougainville, Papua New Guinea). The Turiscai Project is considered highly prospective for copper-gold mineralisation.
Tivan locates copper mineralisation at Turiscai Project
On 10 July 2025, the Company announced the completion of the first week of fieldwork at the Turiscai Project. During this initial visit, outcropping copper mineralisation was visually confirmed at two sites. Tivan is pursuing a systematic exploration program at the Turiscai Project, prioritising geological mapping and sample collection as part of Stage 1 exploration activities.
==> picture [596 x 69] intentionally omitted <==
Stage 1 is focused on accessible areas within the project area and targets the collection of rock, stream and soil samples to define geochemical anomalies that may inform the development of future exploration targets.
As part of this fieldwork, Tivan’s team prioritised traversing the rivers in the Manufahi Municipality and located two distinct sites of copper mineralisation: Mota Sohi and Mota Klere. Fieldwork activities were constrained by river conditions in some areas, with increased accessibility expected in coming months.
Tivan’s geologists logged visits to 51 locations and collected 20 rock samples. Tivan’s geologists reported various species of copper mineralisation, including bornite, chalcopyrite, azurite and malachite. Visual images of the mineral occurrences, including sample locations, geological descriptions and mineralisation visual estimates, are detailed in the ASX announcement of 10 July, published in conformity with ASX Compliance Update no.04/23.
On 25 July 2025, Tivan announced its local geology team had identified an additional three new areas of outcropping copper mineralisation. Tivan’s team visited six additional areas within the Manufahi Municipality and three new sites of copper mineralisation have been located; namely, Beremana, Haru River and Matorec. Visual images of the mineral occurrences, including sample locations, geological descriptions and mineralisation visual estimates, are detailed in the ASX announcement of 25 July, published in conformity with ASX Compliance Update no.04/23.
Samples are being sent to ALS Laboratories in Brisbane for assay.
Cautionary statement : visual estimates of mineral abundance should never be considered a proxy or substitute for laboratory analyses where concentrations or grades are the factor of principal economic interest. Visual estimates also potentially provide no information regarding impurities or deleterious physical properties relevant to valuations.
Speewah Vanadium Project (WA; Tivan 100%)
The Speewah Vanadium Project is located adjacent to the Speewah Fluorite Project, 100km south of the port of Wyndham, and 110km south-west of Kununurra, in the Kimberley region of north-east Western Australia.
Tivan is focused on evaluating the preferred technology pathway for the project for the production of vanadium products - between the TIVAN+ minerals processing technology with CSIRO and a conventional salt roast processing operation. The project is also planned to comprise a separate vanadium electrolyte production facility proposed to be located at the Middle Arm Sustainable Development Precinct in Darwin. Vanadium is used, as vanadium electrolyte, to store energy for long duration in vanadium redox flow batteries.
The Project hosts the largest reported vanadium in titanomagnetite resources in Australia, and one of the largest globally, containing JORC compliant Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources of 4.7 billion tonnes at 0.30% V2O5, 14.7% Fe and 3.3% TiO2 (0.23% V2O5 cut-off grade) (refer to the Mineral Resource tables in Appendix A ).
Evaluation of the preferred technology pathway continued during the quarter, with Tivan mindful of the potential of increased policy support for the vanadium sector from the Australian government.
Sandover AI Project (NT; 100%)
The Sandover AI Project is located 100km north of Alice Springs and covers an area of approximately 8,000km[2] across two contiguous blocks of tenements in the Northern Arunta Pegmatite Province. Tivan entered into an Exploration Alliance Agreement with EARTH AI to advance exploration at Sandover under a success-based model providing access to innovative artificial intelligence capability for targeting and testing (see ASX announcement of 7 March 2023).
During the quarter, Tivan conducted a review of the Sandover AI Project including an evaluation of the project, exploration and tenement holding strategy, in the context of the Exploration Alliance Agreement with EARTH AI. The results of this review are expected to be finalised before year end.
Portfolio Projects
No material activity was undertaken at the Company’s other non-core projects during the quarter.
During the quarter, the Company sold the Kulgera Project (EL32370) to an unrelated third party for an amount of $18.4k.
Stakeholder Engagement
Tivan maintained its proactive stakeholder engagement strategy throughout the quarter, engaging with stakeholders across the East Kimberley region of Western Australia, the Northern Territory and Timor-Leste. This included meetings
==> picture [596 x 69] intentionally omitted <==
with Traditional Owner Negotiating Committees (TONC) of the Nganjuwarr native title claimants and Yurriyangem Taam, in support of the Indigenous Land Use Agreements for the Speewah Fluorite Project.
The Company continued regular dialogue with the Federal, WA and NT Governments and relevant agencies over this period. These dialogues intensified through mid-year with the Federal Government seeking to mobilise the Critical Minerals Strategic Reserve.
Executive Chairman, Grant Wilson, visited Japan for the World Expo, representing the Company in key meetings with the Federal Government, the NT Government, the WA Government, Japanese partners and potential fluorite customers. Grant also participated in the AU–JP Critical Minerals Roundtable and spoke on a panel at the Critical Minerals Symposium alongside representatives from JOGMEC and JETRO.
In September, Tivan was pleased to host a senior delegation from Sumitomo Corporation, who visited both Darwin and the Speewah Project site. In Darwin, Tivan accompanied Sumitomo management to ministerial and departmental meetings with the NT Government. In the East Kimberley, the delegation was introduced to community representatives and Traditional Owners. Graham Tuckwell AO and Louise Tuckwell AO of ETFS Capital also visited Speewah alongside the Sumitomo delegation.
In Central Australia, Tivan’s geology team continued engagement with Traditional Owners and pastoral lease owners to ensure preparations remain on track for the upcoming Sandover Fluorite Project drilling program.
At the Turiscai Project in Timor-Leste, Tivan appointed a community representative to support engagement activities, working alongside the local team comprising four geologists and the Country Representative based full-time in Dili. Grant Wilson also presented on the panel “Minerals and Resources in Timor-Leste: Responsibly Unlocking the Potential” at the Timor-Leste–Australia Economic and Business Conference.
Grant Wilson hosted two investor briefings during the quarter. On 1 August 2025, Mr Wilson hosted a briefing discussing recent progress at the Speewah Fluorite Project and provided updates on the Company’s broader project portfolio. On 19 September 2025, Mr Wilson hosted a further briefing to discuss the Molyhil Project acquisition. Replays for both investor briefings are available for viewing online.
Corporate & Finance
$15m Share Placement
On 16 September 2025, announced that it has received firm commitments from Australian and international institutional and sophisticated investors to raise $15 million via a placement of 150 million fully paid ordinary shares (“Shares”) at an issue price of $0.10 per Share (“Placement”).
The Placement was cornerstoned by an $8.3m investment from ETFS Capital Limited (“ETFSC”), who will become a Substantial Shareholder upon completion of the Placement. ETFSC is the Australian Investor referred to in Tivan’s ASX announcement of 7 May 2025 that subscribed for $5m of shares and options under the placement, and signed a non-binding term sheet (“NBTS”) with Tivan for a proposed $51.3m equity investment for the development of the Speewah Fluorite Project in Western Australia.
ETFSC is the family office of Graham Tuckwell AO and Louise Tuckwell AO, founders of the Tuckwell Scholarship at the Australian National University. Graham is regarded as a pioneer in the global Exchange Traded Funds industry, having created the world’s first gold ETF and gone on to build a top 10 global ETF business in Europe, the USA and Australia. Prior to that, Graham worked as an investment banker and established his own advisory firm in the resources sector. He started his career as an economist in the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet in Canberra.
The NBTS signed between Tivan and ETFSC in May 2025 was designed to facilitate a due diligence period for ETFSC on the Speewah Fluorite Project prior to parties reaching a binding agreement for a proposed project equity investment (“Speewah Investment”). Reflecting the commitment of ETFSC to the project finance pathway, ETFSC has agreed not to sell their allocation of Placement Shares under a standstill arrangement which ends on the earlier of:
-
14 November 2026 (being 18 months from the issue date of the shares issued to ETFSC in May 2025);
-
the date on which a final investment decision is made for the Speewah Fluorite Project; or
-
if such event occurs, the date on which Tivan provides notification to ETFSC that the NBTS and negotiation of the Speewah Investment is terminated.
These thresholds match the standstill arrangement that ETFSC agreed for their shares issued under the placement in May 2025 (see ASX announcement of 7 May 2025). Tivan and ETFSC will continue to work toward a binding agreement on the basis of the NBTS in good faith.
==> picture [596 x 69] intentionally omitted <==
The Placement was led by Executive Chairman, Mr Grant Wilson, who raised in excess of $14 million of subscriptions, reducing brokerage fees. Evolution Capital Pty Ltd placed the balance of subscriptions and provided DVP settlement.
Funds raised from the Placement will be used to part fund the acquisition of 100% of the Molyhil Project, as well as progress exploration and development planning work at the Company’s other projects and Molyhil. The Placement settled on 23 September 2025.
Full payment of collateral shares issued under Convertible Note Facility
The Company announced in March 2024 a convertible note facility with SBC, a fund of L1 Capital Global Opportunities Master Fund, under which Tivan received cash funding via the issue of two tranches of convertible notes. Tivan completed redemption of the convertible notes in April 2025 (Tranche 1) and in June 2025 (Tranche 2) ahead of maturity (see ASX announcements of 22 March 2024, 2 April 2025 and 4 June 2025).
As part of the establishment of the convertible note facility, SBC were issued 20 million Tivan shares in April 2024 as effective collateral for no upfront consideration. As previously announced in April 2025, the Company received a payment notice from SBC for 5,882,353 of the 20 million collateral shares (see ASX announcement of 29 April 2025), resulting in a $500k inflow to Tivan. During the quarter, SBC issued a further payment notice for the balance of 14,117,647 shares, resulting in an $850k inflow to Tivan. All 20 million collateral shares have now been paid for by SBC, completing all obligations of the parties under the convertible note facility.
Tivan commences next phase of Human Resources build out
Subsequent to the end of the quarter on 14 October 2025, Tivan provided an update on human resources and organisational capacity for the Company, as Tivan continues to expand its in-house technical and project delivery capability to support advancement of its portfolio of Australian critical minerals projects and the Turiscai Project in the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste.

Appendix A - Mineral Resources
Speewah Fluorite Project
Speewah Fluorite Mineral Resource
The Speewah Fluorite Mineral Resource estimate (JORC Code 2012) set out below in Table 1 was released in an ASX Announcement entitled “Tivan Upgrades Resource Estimate - Speewah Fluorite Project” on 22 April 2024. The Mineral Resource estimate was completed by SRK Consulting (Australasia) Pty Ltd.
Table 1 - Speewah Fluorite Mineral Resource Estimate
==> picture [490 x 421] intentionally omitted <==
1. Differences in totals may occur due to rounding
2. The 2% cut off is based on a USD600 Fluorite (CaF2) average price from Q1 2024 and Revenue Factor of 1.5
3. The 2% cut off Mineral Resource is inclusive of the 10% High Grade resource
4. The Mineral Resource is reported within a constraining Revenue Factor 1.5 pit shell based on a USD600 Fluorite price
Speewah Fluorite Ore Reserve
No ore reserve has been reported. Tivan will complete an appropriate level of study to report an ore reserve.
==> picture [596 x 69] intentionally omitted <==
Molyhil Tungsten-Molybdenum Project
Molyhil Mineral Resource
The Molyhil Mineral Resource estimate (JORC Code 2012) set out below in Table 2 was detailed in an ASX Announcement entitled “Tivan acquires 100% of the Molyhil Project” on 16 September 2025.
In May 2024, Investigator prepared an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the project, undertaken as part of a verification program of the previous Mineral Resource Estimate update published by Thor Energy Plc (“Thor”) in April 2021 and following the signing of the farm-in agreement between Thor and Investigator Resources Limited (“Investigator”) in November 2022 (refer to Investigator’s ASX announcement of 24 November 2022). Investigator engaged independent resource consulting group H&S Consultants (“HSC”) to assist with the verification program and prepare the 2024 updated Mineral Resource Estimate.
The updated JORC Code (2012) Molyhil Mineral Resource Estimate prepared by HSC is detailed in Table 2 below:
Table 2 – Molyhil Resource Estimate
| WO3 | WO3 | Mo | Mo | Cu | Cu | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Category | Tonnes | Grade % | Tonnes | Grade % | Tonnes | Grade % | Tonnes |
| Measured | 1,160,000 | 0.34 | 3,900 | 0.11 | 1,300 | 0.06 | 700 |
| Indicated | 1,664,000 | 0.27 | 4,600 | 0.10 | 1,600 | 0.05 | 800 |
| Inferred | 1,823,000 | 0.20 | 3,600 | 0.08 | 1,500 | 0.03 | 550 |
| Total | 4,647,000 | 0.26 | 12,100 | 0.09 | 4,400 | 0.04 | 2,050 |
Reported at a cut-off grade of 0.05% WO3 Tungsten and to 150mRL, based on an open pit mining scenario. Variability of summation may occur due to rounding to appropriate level of significant figures.
Molyhil Mineral Ore Reserve
Thor Mining Plc reported an updated and most recent Ore Reserve estimate statement in January 2018. Tivan has not undertaken sufficient work to validate the economic parameters underpinning the Ore Reserve statement, and, therefore out of prudence given the time elapsed since its release Tivan has elected not to report the Ore Reserve estimate statement. Tivan intends to complete an independent and appropriate level of study to evaluate and report, if appropriate to do so, an Ore Reserve in accordance with the JORC Code (2012).
Speewah Vanadium Project
Speewah Vanadium Mineral Resource
The Speewah Vanadium Mineral Resource estimate (JORC Code 2012) set out below in Table 3 was detailed in an ASX Announcement entitled “Tivan to Acquire Speewah V-Ti-Fe Project” on 20 February 2023.
In 2010, Runge Ltd reported a Mineral Resource estimate for the Speewah vanadium deposit in accordance with JORC 2004. In 2012 this estimate was updated by Runge Ltd again in accordance with the JORC Code 2004. In 2017, King River Resources (“KRR”) engaged mining industry consultants CSA Global Pty Ltd (“CSA”) to complete an updated resource estimate for the project, consistent with the JORC Code 2012 (refer to KRR ASX announcement of 26 May 2017). In 2019, CSA further updated the resource estimate to include the reporting of the TiO2 grade (refer to KRR ASX announcement of 1 April 2019).
