-  To progress a resource review (and update) for the Munni Munni Project

-  For general working capital purposes

A Director of the Company and a PDMR participated in the Fundraise as follows:

· Roderick McIllree, a director and Chairman, participated in the Fundraise for, in aggregate, 50,000,000 new Common Shares at the Placing Price. The total Common Shares in the Company now held by Roderick McIllree is 50,000,000 Common Shares representing 0.99% of the issued share capital of the Company following the Fundraise; and
