The result of the poll for each resolution are as follows:

Special Resolution 7 | To provide the directors with a further general authority to allot up to an aggregate maximum of 474,594,899 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 50 per cent. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital at the date of notice of this Resolution. | 319,570,133 | 62.96% | 187,971,569 | 37.04% | 150,000 |
As resolution 3 did not receive the requisite majority, Ms Angela List has not been reappointed and has therefore stepped down from the Board with immediate effect. The remaining Board has, following the AGM, nominated Campbell Smyth as Interim Non-Executive Chairman of the Company.
The Company also notes that, at today's meeting, a former Chairman of the Company, Bill Trew, disclosed certain confidential information regarding the Company, in relation to, inter alia, an offer received by the Board in April 2025, which had been unequivocally rejected by the Board for a number of reasons. The Company has commenced an investigation into how this confidential information was obtained by Mr Trew.
In terms of current trading, the Company confirms that it produced approximately 213.7 troy ounces in July 2025, a reduced amount due to the current low grade ore that is being mined at the Homase Mine.
The Company notes that it is in ongoing discussions with potential funding partners and, to the extent needed, will convene a further General Meeting in due course to allow shareholders to vote on increasing the Board's share issuance authorities.
