ABx Group Limited and ALCORE Limited Report Significant Progress of Its Continuous Pilot Plant Project Adjacent to the Bell Bay Aluminium Smelter in Tasmania ABx Group Limited and its 83%-owned subsidiary ALCORE Limited reported significant progress of its continuous pilot plant project adjacent to the Bell Bay aluminium smelter in Tasmania. The Company has placed orders for all key equipment required for the pilot plant, marking a major milestone in the project. This includes the oleum plant, bath reactors, scrubbers, cooling tower, and various ancillary process components. The total investment in equipment is supported by the previously announced $7.5 million in grant funding under the Federal Government's Modern Manufacturing Initiative (MMI). Most of the specialised equipment is being fabricated by experienced overseas suppliers. The anticipated timeline for procurement and delivery is: three months for detailed engineering and manufacturing design, one month for ALCORE's review and approval, followed by two to four months for equipment manufacture. It is expected that the equipment will be delivered in late 2025. All key equipment for the Bell Bay pilot plant has been ordered with deliveries expected in late 2025. Engineering contractors and consultants engaged, and consultations continuing with EPA and local council. In parallel, ALCORE has engaged key engineering consultants and contractors to support the project, including BFluor Chemicals, an originally South African consulting service and fluorochemical equipment manufacturing company with extensive experience in technology implementation across the entire global fluorochemical value chain, and Kempe Engineering, a leading global specialist provider of innovative engineering solutions and asset services for aluminium smelting, major resource and other major industries. Regulatory processes are also progressing. ALCORE has received formal guidelines for the Environmental Effects Report (EER) from EPA Tasmania, after previously submitting a Notice of Intent for the pilot plant's development. The Company has also progressed discussions with George Town Council regarding planning approval requirements. The pilot plant will be established at the leased industrial facility adjacent to Rio Tinto's Bell Bay aluminium smelter. The facility comprises a 500 square metre building with excellent access to local engineering services and suppliers. The pilot plant will demonstrate ALCORE's world-first proprietary process to produce industrial chemicals, including hydrogen fluoride, from a waste product created during the aluminium smelting process. In the planned subsequent commercial plant, hydrogen fluoride will be converted to aluminium fluoride, an essential chemical for aluminium smelting that is currently 100% imported. This is an exemplary demonstration of the circular economy. As previously announced, the Tasmanian Government has provided indicative terms for a $1 million, zero-interest conditional loan to support the construction and operation of the pilot plant. Final documentation is expected to be executed in coming weeks. Board Change • Dec 24

New major risk - Financial position The company has less than a year of cash runway based on its current free cash flow trend. Free cash flow: -AU$2.9m This is considered a major risk. With less than a year's worth of cash, the company will need to raise capital or take on debt unless its cash flows improve. This would dilute existing shareholders or increase balance sheet risk. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-AU$2.9m free cash flow). Earnings have declined by 6.5% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$799k revenue, or US$536k). Market cap is less than US$10m (AU$10.8m market cap, or US$7.21m).

New minor risk - Financial data availability The company's latest financial reports are more than 6 months old. Last reported fiscal period ended June 2023. This is considered a minor risk. If the company has not reported its earnings on time, it may have been delayed due to audit problems or it may be finding it difficult to reconcile its accounts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings have declined by 24% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$236k revenue, or US$155k). Minor Risks Latest financial reports are more than 6 months old (reported June 2023 fiscal period end). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (12% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (AU$16.5m market cap, or US$10.8m). New Risk • Mar 05
New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: AU$15.0m (US$9.77m) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings have declined by 24% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$236k revenue, or US$154k). Market cap is less than US$10m (AU$15.0m market cap, or US$9.77m).

ABx Group Limited Provides Administrative Update on Director Status Omission ABx Group Limited advised that when director Ian Levy ceased acting as CEO on 1 February 2022, his role as director changed. Whilst CEO, Ian Levy was considered an "executive" director, however upon stepping down as CEO his role changed to "non-executive" director. The Company advised the change of CEO in its announcement of 24 January 2022, with the change effective from 1 February 2022. The change in status of Ian Levy was inadvertently omitted when it was advised that "Outgoing CEO, Ian Levy, will continue as [Non-Executive] Director to work on REE exploration in coming months and train a geologist for the company's REE exploration projects." The omission of the words "Non-Executive" became apparent in preparation of the Notice of Meeting for the EGM to be held on 14 February 2024. 공지 • Dec 23

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 8.4% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings have declined by 24% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$236k revenue, or US$152k). Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (8.4% increase in shares outstanding).

ABx Group Limited Provides an Update on Deep Leads and Rubble Mound Deposits in Northern Tasmania ABx Group Limited has received results from its representative batch of 71 desorption tests on rare earth element (REE) samples from its Deep Leads and Rubble Mound deposits in northern Tasmania. The desorption tests were conducted by ANSTO at Lucas Heights in Sydney, which has extensive experience in metallurgical testing of clay-hosted rare earth deposits worldwide. Tests were conducted at `standard' desorption conditions of 0.5 M ammonium sulfate at pH 4, which are low-acid, low-cost processing conditions for ionic adsorption clay REE (IAC REE). Highest reported extractions from clay-hosted REE prospect in Australia: The extractions of contained REE ranged from 24% to 83% for the 44 samples from the extensive IAC REE zones in the Maiden Resource estimate announced on 23 November 2022. 73% of the samples from the more closely-drilled Deep Leads project area had minimum 24% extraction and average 50% extraction. These confirm that Deep Leads is an ionic adsorption clay REE deposit. Samples from IAC REE zones of Rubble Mound performed similarly to the samples from IAC REE zones of Deep Leads. Current drilling is focussed on extending these IAC REE zones. ABx tested representative samples from Deep Leads and Rubble Mound. The results increased ABx's understanding of variations in REE extraction and, most importantly, confirmed that both Deep Leads and Rubble Mound have large zones of genuine ionic adsorption clay REE mineralisation. Some zones have exceptionally high extraction, including 83% extraction for one sample from Rubble Mound, which is only in the early stages of drill evaluation. Deep Leads has been drilled more extensively, and 36 of the 49 samples (73% of samples) achieved extractions above 24%, averaging 50% overall. Large potential extensions to the IAC REE zones have been identified by this testwork at both Deep Leads and Rubble Mound, and the drill rig that is currently exploring at Deep Leads and Rubble Mound has been deployed to drill out these newly identified IAC REE zones. High extractions were achieved from drillholes that were geographically widespread across Deep Leads and Rubble Mound, and came from drill samples taken from a range of depths. High extractions were obtained from the full range of REE grades and were not restricted to the higher grade samples. An advantage of this IAC REE type of mineralisation is that it is proportionally enriched in the four most valuable REE that are used in permanent magnets, namely praseodymium (Pr), neodymium (Nd), terbium (Tb) and dysprosium (Dy). Furthermore, the extractions achieved from these desorption tests are highest for these permanent magnet REE (Table 1). It is significant that these results were obtained using ammonium sulfate at pH 4, which is similar to the conditions used in China for purely ionic adsorption clay type deposits. Many clay-hosted REE deposits can require lower pH to achieve similar levels of REE extraction. The widespread high extractions mean that ABx can give more consideration to processing of ionic adsorption clay REE deposits, namely mining, desorption, impurity removal and precipitation. Optimised processes are crucial to maximising the profitability of a rare earth project. ABx has already engaged with ANSTO on the desorption tests described here, and is developing relationships with other organizations with expertise in rare earths. The results also enable early development of rehabilitation technologies that suit the Tasmanian setting of the ABx deposits within hardwood plantations that may be replanted after REE production. ABx has been conducting further drilling of the Deep Leads and Rubble Mound deposits since 17 January this year and is expediting assay results. Drilling of the outlying greenfield areas during the second half of 2022 was highly successful. It was conducted subject to a Tasmanian State Government, Exploration Drilling Grant Initiative (EDGI) for co-funded exploration drilling projects, which is gratefully acknowledged. 공지 • Jan 23
Abx Group Limited Commences Its Drilling Campaign Ahead of Schedule At Its Deep Leads and Rubble Mound Rare Earth Element Discoveries in Northern Tasmania ABx Group Limited has commenced its drilling campaign ahead of schedule at its Deep Leads and Rubble Mound rare earth element (REE) discoveries in northern Tasmania. Mobilisation of the RC drill rig to site was completed on 17 January 2023, with the 120-hole campaign expected to take three months. Assay results from this drilling campaign will be fast-tracked and batches of results could start arriving within a few weeks. The primary aim of this campaign is to extend the mineralisation zone between the Deep Leads and Rubble Mound rare earth discoveries. Importantly, the favourable dry summer conditions will allow drill rig access to key low-lying targets which had been difficult to access during the unusually wet winter. Recent results have confirmed that the Rubble Mound and Wind Break discovery areas are both high grade REE centres similar to Deep Leads. ABx has applied for a new exploration licence application covering the corridor between Deep Leads /Rubble Mound and the Wind Break discovery, which lies 13.5km northeast of Deep Leads. The ABx exploration team will seek to confirm the most prospective REE-rich channel that will connect through to Wind Break, with several potential channels already evident. If granted, the new tenement will allow ABx's REE exploration to confirm the degree of continuity of mineralisation between the three discovery areas as part of a larger REE domain. Recent REE assay results from the Wind Break discovery have revealed Wind Break to be higher grade and more extensive than previously reported. Board Change • Nov 16
