Investor Newsletter, December 2025

Dear Investor,

We are back.

Back in voice and in visibility, and back with renewed momentum after a period in which progress was real but necessarily quiet. Our last newsletter went out at the end of July. Since then, the Company has been constrained into a degree of anonymity by the practical demands of a cross-trade and, subsequently, a financing. Both required focus, discretion and patience. Neither lent itself to commentary.

We are also back because the completion of the cross-trade to Rio2 draws a line under a protracted share-register overhang. That overhang weighed on conscientious marketing efforts and obscured a clear view of the Company’s strategic horizon. Its removal matters. It restores confidence and perspective.

This is not a “return from the ashes” narrative. The Company did not burn out and reappear transformed. It has been simmering quietly, the lid kept firmly on. Guided by a deliberate strategy to avoid single-asset or single-jurisdiction risk, and while Colombia paused and external factors constrained visibility, disciplined work in Saudi Arabia and Morocco materially diversified and strengthened our portfolio.

Discipline comes with realism. Each jurisdiction presents its own challenges and without keeping our feet firmly on the ground we would risk being blind to them. Optimism is only useful when it is anchored in an honest appraisal of risk.

The Company has also welcomed a new cornerstone investor in Rio2. For that we are grateful. A mining insider on the share register of an exploration company makes intuitive sense, yet it is surprisingly rare for such relationships to be fully leveraged. Both teams are aligned in their determination to prove concept and to make the value of that relationship evident through material outcomes.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support and patience. We trust you had a good Christmas and wish you a peaceful and prosperous 2026....please enjoy the 2025 bloopers vlog at the end of this letter.
