Hummingbird Resources Shares to Cancel from AIM Effective March 03 On 16 December 2024, the boards of each of Nioko Resources Corporation and Hummingbird Resources PLC announced that they had reached agreement on the terms of a recommended all cash offer to be made by Nioko for the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Hummingbird not already owned, or agreed to be acquired, by Nioko (the Offer). The Offer remains open for acceptance by Hummingbird Shareholders. Nioko shall, at the appropriate time, give Hummingbird Shareholders 14 calendar days' notice of the Closing Date by way of announcement. As previously communicated to Hummingbird Shareholders, Hummingbird has made an application to the London Stock Exchange for the cancellation of the admission to trading of Hummingbird Shares on AIM (the Cancellation). As set out in Hummingbird's announcement on 31 January 2025, Cancellation is expected to take effect on or shortly after 7.00 a.m. on 3 March 2025 and, accordingly, the final day of trading on AIM of Hummingbird Shares will be on 28 February 2025. As soon as possible after the Cancellation, it is intended that Hummingbird will be re-registered as a private limited company. If Hummingbird Shareholders do not accept the Offer prior to Cancellation, then following the Cancellation and re-registration of Hummingbird as a private limited company, Hummingbird Shares would no longer be tradeable on AIM and liquidity in, and marketability of, such Hummingbird Shares would be extremely limited, and holdings of the Hummingbird Shares would be difficult to value and to trade. This is particularly the case given there is no intention to put in place a match bargain trading facility. Hummingbird Shareholders are therefore reminded of the Independent Hummingbird Directors' recommendation that all Hummingbird Shareholders accept the Offer prior to the Closing Date. Annonce • Oct 08

Hummingbird Resources plc Announces Results of Maiden Drilling Maiden Diamond Core Drilling at the Bukon Jedeh 'Gold Camp' Hummingbird Resources Plc announced the recent announcement from Pasofino Gold Limited ("Pasofino") surrounding the results of their maiden diamond core drilling programme at the Bukon Jedeh 'gold camp' ("Bukon"), which has intersected significant gold mineralisation zones within the Dugbe Gold Project in Liberia. Hummingbird holds a 53% interest in Pasofino. Highlights from Pasofino's Maiden Drilling Programme: 8 of the 11 holes that reached their target depth intercepted gold mineralised intervals, including: BKDD001: 21.3m with an average grade of 0.9 g/t Au from 53.5m downhole; BKDD004: 4.0m with an average grade of 2.1 g/t Au from 46.5m downhole. BKDD011: 2.5m with an average grade of2 g/t Au from 43.5m downhole. The westernmost drill hole on the main trend, indicates a potential 'build-up' of mineralisation towards an interpreted fold closure, a structural feature similar to that controlling the nearby 2.3 Moz Tuzon deposit. Future drilling will aim to test down-dip and along trend from BKDD001, and Additional exploration is planned for the DSZ target, situated 4 km along strike from the Tuzon deposit, where a 2021 channel cut into bedrock returned 36m at an average grade of 0.6 g/t Au, though it remains untested by drilling.

Hummingbird Resources PLC Provides Operations Update on Kouroussa Gold Mine in Guinea Hummingbird Resources PLC provided an update on the progress of the ramp-up of mining operations at the Kouroussa Gold Mine in Guinea (Kouroussa) towards achieving commercial production. The start of 2024 has posed various operational hurdles, particularly at Kouroussa. However, in the face of adversity, team remained determined and resilient, working diligently to overcome them. Building on the achievements and overcoming the challenges of 2023, the company is committed to delivering strong operational performance while upholding core principles of responsible mining and sustainable practices. Key Events and Achievements Through fiscal year 2024. Group Production totalled 22,867 oz of gold in first quarter of 2024, with Yanfolila contributing 16,999 oz and Kouroussa producing an additional 5,868 oz. At Yanfolila, the development of KEUG is targeting first ore in second half of 2024, with commercial production expected later in the year. Despite steady progress in February and early March, Corica, the primary contractor at Kouroussa, temporarily halted mining on 17 March 2024. Operations resumed in May 2024. Since the restart of operations, significant progress has been made in ramping up mining activities towards commercial production: All four Corica mining fleets are now fully operational. Additionally, two support fleets from ETASI have been integrated, with one operational and the second soon to be engaged, bringing the total fleet at Kouroussa to six. Ramp-up activities are progressing in line with the updated operational plan. BCM rates are being achieved, and grades are increasing as the operation continues to mine transitional and fresh ore. Since resuming operations at Kouroussa, approximately 4,000 oz of gold has been produced, bringing year-to-date production to c.12,000 oz. o Based on the current rate of progress, the Company expects to achieve commercial production in third quarter of 2024.

Hummingbird Resources plc Provides Exploration Update Hummingbird Resources plc provided an exploration update, including recent drilling results at the Yanfolila Gold mine in Mali (Yanfolila). Through First Quarter-2024, the Company progressed its exploration activities, particularly at the Saniou male West North Pit (SWN) and Kabaya South (KS) deposits at Yanfolila. During the development of the Company's exploration strategy in Fiscal Year -2023, Hummingbird identified both SWN and KS as resource upgrade targets, with SWN showing potential for near term addition to the operations mine plan through the upgrade of Inferred Resources into the Indicated Resources category. At SWN, drilling operations have been completed with 2,223 meters (m) drilled across 34 Reverse Circulation (RC) holes and assay results received. Key drilling results from Sanioumale West North Pit include: 21m @14.93 grams per tonne (g/t) Au from 3m (SNWRC0583); 3m @ 6.52 g/t from 10m (SNWRC0595); 4m @ 3.48 g/t from 50m (SNWRC0580); 26m @ 2.96 g/t Au from 21m (SNWRC05 80); 19m @ 2.02 g/t Au from 38m (SNWRC0578); 12m @ 2.52 g/t Au from 44m (SNWRC0582) At KS, the Company is progressing with the updating of the historic SAMREC Resource (85 Koz (1.31g/t)) to align with JORC protocol. RC drill chips from 42 drill holes, drilled between 2006 and 2012 (total 4,192m), were relogged and are being included in the updated geological model. In addition, drone surveys were flown to obtain current topographic surfaces to account for artisanal depletion since the original Mineral Resource was estimated. Modelling and an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the drilling campaigns at SWN and re-logging of drill chips from KS are expected to be completed within the second half of the year and incorporated into next year's Resource Statement. Detailed exploration targeting and planning is being conducted with the aim of drilling at the end of the wet season in third quarter 2024. Annonce • May 18

Hummingbird Resources plc Provides Update on Mining Operations at Kouroussa Hummingbird Resources plc provided an update on operations at the Kouroussa Gold Mine in Guinea. Kouroussa's principal contract miner, Corica Mining Services ("Corica"), has temporarily suspended mining operations as of 17 March 2024 as a result of various contractual disputes. Such suspension is a clear breach of the mining contract. As previously announced, since the commencement of the contract, Corica has failed to meet mining contract volumes due to delays in mining equipment mobilisation, commissioning, and overall operating performance. With the processing plant operating consistently at name plate capacity, and higher-grade ore scheduled to be accessed from the next blast, the Company is well positioned to reach commercial production levels once full mining is achieved. Hummingbird is working to reach full mining capacity, while continuing to process both low-grade stockpiles and ore being mined separately by a supporting mining contractor which was appointed in H2-2023 to support Corica's mining activities. The supporting mining contractor has one fleet on site to support the contracted four fleets from Corica. The processing plant is expected to continue to run in the near term, however until increased mining capacity is available, reaching commercial production will not be possible, with production and cash flows increasingly impacted. Notice has been given to Corica to return to work by Tuesday 19 March 2024, failing which the Company will exercise its rights which could include, stepping in to resume mining, and working with alternative mining contractors and equipment suppliers to achieve full mining operations. The Company is in discussion with its primary lender, Coris Bank International ("Coris"), regarding the potential implications of the situation on forecast production and the cash flows for the Group. Coris has been the Company's main financing partner since it financed the construction of the Yanfolila Gold Mine in Mali in 2017 and have been very supportive of the Company's growth strategy throughout. The Company will provide a further update as and when appropriate. Annonce • Jan 31
