EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
ORDINARY BUSINESS
1. BACKGROUND TO RESOLUTIONS 1 TO 3
1.1 Background to the Placement
As announced by the Company on 13 March 2025, the Company received firm commitments from new and existing sophisticated investors to raise approximately $307,500 (before costs) by way of a placement of 25,625,995 Shares at an issue price of $0.012 per Share ( Placement Shares ), together with one free attaching Option exercisable at $0.022 each on or before 19 March 2028 ( Placement Options ) for every one Share subscribed for and issued ( Placement ).
The Placement comprised the following:
-
(a) 23,807,335 Shares issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, which the Company is seeking to ratify under Resolution 1;
-
(b) 1,817,665 Shares issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, which the Company is seeking to ratify under Resolution 2; and
-
(c) 25,624,995 Placement Options, whiclh will be issued to the Placement Participants on a one for one basis subject to the Company obtaining Shareholder approval under Resolution 3.
Proceeds from the Placement, together with existing cash reserves, will be primarily applied towards advancing the Company’s 100%-owned Monument Gold Project located in the LeonoraLaverton Goldfields in Western Australia. On 4 April 2025, the Company also released a Prospectus to the ASX for a renouncebale rights issue ( Rights Issue ) on the same terms as the Placement.

2. RESOLUTIONS 1 AND 2 - RATIFICATION OF PLACEMENT SHARES
2.1 General
Resolutions 1 and 2 seek Shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of an aggregate of 25,624,995 Shares on 19 March 2025 at an issue price of $0.012 per Share to raise $307,500 (before costs).
23,807,335 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s available placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (being the subject of Resolution 1) and 1,817,665 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s available capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A (being subject of Resolution 2).
2.2 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that 12 month period.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%. The Company obtained this approval at its annual general meeting held on 22 November 2024.
The issue does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
2.3 Listing Rule 7.4
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 and the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue.
2.4 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If these Resolutions are passed, the issue will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of the issue.
If these Resolutions are not passed, the issue will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of the issue.
7
Technical Information required by Listing Rule 7.4 and 7.5
| Information Required | Details |
|---|---|
| Name of the person/s to whom the Company issued the securities |

| Number and class of securities issued |
25,624,995 Placement Shares were issued on the following basis: (a) 23,807,335 Shares were issued pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 (ratification of which is sought under Resolution 1); and (b) 1,817,665 Shares were issued pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A (ratification of which is sought under Resolution 2). |

| Voting Exclusion | A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice. |
| Compliance | The issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 |
3. RESOLUTION 3 - APPROVAL TO ISSUE PLACEMENT OPTIONS 3.1 General
8
As set out in Section 1.1, the Company is proposing to issue 25,624,995 Placement Options free attaching to the Placement Shares on a 1 for 1 basis.
Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of 25,624,995 Placement Options.
3.2 Listing Rule 7.1
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the company’s ordinary shares on issue at the start of that period. The issue does not fall within any of these exceptions and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of the Company’s Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 3 seeks the required Shareholder approval to the issue of the Placement Options under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.
3.3 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Placement Options. In addition the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of Placement Options.
3.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3

9
| Issue price/Consideration for the securities: |
The Placement Options are free-attaching to the Placement Shares issued and therefore will be issued at an issue price of nil. |
|---|---|
| Material terms | The material terms on which the Placement Options will be issued are set out in section 1.1 |
| Voting exclusion statement |
A voting exclusion statement applies to this Resolution. |
