New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 30% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings have declined by 30% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (48% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$6.1k revenue, or US$4.2k). Minor Risk Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). New Risk • Jan 30

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Australian stocks, typically moving 13% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (48% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$6.1k revenue, or US$4.2k). Minor Risk Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Major Estimate Revision • Jan 21

Galan Lithium Limited Announces Incentive Regime for Hmw Project in Argentina Galan Lithium Limited advised that the Comite Eval Ecuador de Proyectos RIGI, responsible for awarding the Argentine Government's Regimen de Incentivo para Grandes Inversiones (the incentive regime for large-scale investments referred to as the "RIGI"), has approved the RIGI for Galan's Hombre Muerto West ("HMW") Project in Catamarca Province, Argentina. Galan now expects to receive official approvals relating to the RIGI in due course. The RIGI is a landmark investment framework introduced as part of the Government of Argentina's new economic reform agenda, aimed at encouraging large-scale investment in key sectors, including mining. The RIGI provides long-term certainty on tax and foreign exchange regulations, as well as streamlined permitting, both critical enablers for project financing, efficient construction and operation of the HMW Project over its multi-decade life. HMW will be only the sixth project to receive the RIGI approval in Argentina and the second in the mining sector, following the recent award to Rio Tinto's Rincon project. Key Benefits of the RIGI for the HMW project: Reduced Corporate Income Tax: a significant 10% reduction in corporate income tax rate to 25%. Fiscal Stability: Certainty around income tax, royalties, and export duties for 30 years. Foreign Exchange: Preferential access to currency markets for imports and dividend repatriation. Customs & Tariff Exemptions: Reduced barriers for importing critical equipment and materials. Accelerated Depreciation: Improved cash flow through tax-effective project development. HMW is a multi-decade, lithium brine project in Argentina with compelling economics. Phase 1 provides for a 4ktpa LCE operation, producing a 6% LiCl concentrate product over a projected 40-year life (1). Galan expects first Phase 1 production in H1 2026 and has secured an offtake agreement for 45,000 t LCE of production. Beyond Phase 1, the Company will undertake a phased scaling approach, eventually ramping up to 60ktpa at the conclusion of Phase 4. This approach mitigates funding and execution risk and will allow for continuous process improvement. With a world class resource and a cost profile within the first quartile globally, HMW is a clear demonstration of the benefits of a high-quality lithium brine asset. These benefits are allowing Galan to progress through development and into production with a lower capital intensity and lower risk profile when compared to hard rock lithium (spodumene) projects. As importantly, lithium chloride is a key component for lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, which have become the dominant battery product globally. With the ability to be cost effectively converted into a lithium dihydrogen phosphate or lithium carbonate, lithium chloride, as will be produced at HMW, is an ideal source for LFP batteries. The Galan Board has authorised this release. Please refer to the Mineral Resource Statement for Galan's Total Resources of 9.5Mt LCE. Recent Insider Transactions • Jul 02

New minor risk - Profitability The company is currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over the next 3 years. Trailing 12-month net loss: AU$9.5m Forecast net loss in 3 years: AU$32m This is considered a minor risk. Companies that are not profitable are more likely to be burning through cash and less likely to be well established. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. Without profits, the company is under pressure to grow significantly while potentially having to reduce costs and possibly needing to take on debt or raise capital to remain afloat. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 25% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (69% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$941 revenue, or US$633).

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 71% This is considered a major 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 are forecast to decline by an average of 13% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (71% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$3.6k revenue, or US$2.5k).

Energy Exploration Technologies, Inc made a non-binding indicative proposal to acquire Argentinian Lithium Assets from Galan Lithium Limited (ASX:GLN) for $100 million on August 6, 2024. As per the terms, EnergyX will pay $50 million in cash and will issue common shares which values at $50 million.

Galan Response to AFR Street Talk Article Galan Lithium Limited (ASX:GLN) refers to a recent media report that it has received a takeover bid. Galan advises that it has not received a takeover bid but that it has received an unsolicited, confidential, conditional, non-binding indicative proposal from NXT Energy Solutions Inc. (OTCPK:NSFD.F) (Energy Exploration Technologies Inc.) (EnergyX) in relation to a potential acquisition of Galan's Argentinian lithium assets (Proposal). The Proposal is to acquire assets and real property held by Galan related to its holdings in Salar del Hombre Muerto and Candelas (Project Assets) for USD 50 million in cash, and common shares in EnergyX which EnergyX values at USD 50 million. EnergyX is a corporation incorporated under the laws of Puerto Rico and its securities, including its common shares, are not quoted or traded on any stock exchange. Under the Proposal EnergyX would also provide: USD 50 million, which it is noted would not be payable to Galan but rather to EnergyX's wholly owned subsidiary which would own the Project Assets, with those funds to be committed and wholly dedicated to completing the first commercial phase of lithium production at Hombre Muerto West and maintaining the Project Assets and a 10% gross revenue royalty to Galan for 10 years starting from commercial production. Galan has been seeking to negotiate a confidentiality agreement with EnergyX in respect of the Proposal. The confidentiality agreement currently sits with EnergyX. The Proposal is conditional on, amongst other things, completion of satisfactory due diligence and negotiation and execution of definitive, binding transaction documentation. The Proposal remains subject to consideration by Galan's board, and given the early stage nature of discussions and its conditionality, there is no certainty a transaction will eventuate. Given the Proposal contemplates the disposition of Galan's main undertaking, Galan shareholder approval would be a necessary condition to completion under a binding agreement, if such an agreement were to eventuate. Galan confirms that it is in compliance with ASX Listing Rules, particularly, Listing Rule 3.1, and will keep shareholders informed in accordance with its continuous disclosure obligations.

New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: AU$144.9m (US$94.5m) This is considered a minor 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 are forecast to decline by an average of 43% per year for the foreseeable future. Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$3.6k revenue, or US$2.4k). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (AU$45m net loss in 3 years).

Galan Lithium Limited Announces Move to 100% Title of Candelas Project in Catamarca, Argentina The Board of Galan Lithium Limited announced that it has moved to 100% full ownership of the Candelas Project in the Catamarca Province, Argentina. The Candelas Project is supported by a full Preliminary Economic Assessment and a JORC 2012 Resource and lies approximately 40 km ESE of the HMW Project. It is hosted within a 15 km by 3-4 km wide structurally controlled basin infilled with sediments that host the Li-bearing brines. The mineral resource estimation was undertaken by SRK Consulting (Australasia) (SRK) and was based upon results from a total of eight (8) holes drilled in the North and Central Zones at Candelas for a total of 3,537 metres. On 30 November 2021, the Company announced the results of a PEA study for its 100% owned Candelas Project in Catamarca Province, Argentina. The study, at a minimum, complies with the Canadian NI 43- 101 regulation known as a PEA and is equivalent to a JORC Scoping Study. For further PEA information, including Cautionary Statement, refer to the Galan ASX Announcement dated 30 November 2021 entitled "Excellent Preliminary Economic Assessment Results for Candelas Project in Catamarca, Argentina". The Study estimated a production profile of 14,000 tonnes per annum of battery grade lithium carbonate product including some technical grade product for the first three (3) years.The preparation of the Project's PEA was managed by Ad Infinitum and Galan's Project Manager for the engineering inputs including the recovery method, project layout and infrastructure, capital cost and operating cost estimates and overall economic evaluation. The other sections of the study were managed by consultants and employees of Galan Lithium Limited. Once the Hombre Muerto West DFS is complete, Galan's geological team will undertake a thorough review of all Candelas data. Reverse osmosis studies have shown that the Candelas project has a reliable water source. The results from these studies indicate there will be minimal to no need to access water from the Los Patos river. Announcement • Jan 17
Galan Lithium Limited Announces Successful 2022 Pumping Test Program Galan Lithium Limited announced the successful completion of the 2022 brine pumping test campaign at its flagship Hombre Muerto West Project in Catamarca Province, Argentina. Strong extraction and production well chemistry results from all three long-term brine pumping tests support the Definitive Feasibility Study as it approaches completion. Further exploration drilling and sampling has continued across the HMW Project tenements to complement surface geophysical work. A total of three production pumping wells were completed during the second half of 2022 - two at Pata Pila and one at Rana de Sal. Each production pumping well was constructed at previous exploration platforms and included diamond drill holes to confirm the stratigraphic characteristics of the reservoir, production capacity, and optimum design for production wells. Each test consisted of an initial step test, a 72-hour constant rate and recovery test, and then a long-term pumping and recovery test period. Brine levels were constantly monitored through multiple monitoring wells, each of which was specifically designed to monitor the brine levels response of individual hydrogeological units (shallow and deep). Brine chemistry was also analysed from each pumping well. The results from the three production wells tested at HMW, confirm that the HMW Project is ready to provide the brine flow and quality for the 4Ktpa LCE pilot development, expecting construction in H2 2022. The third and final long-term pumping test at the HMW Project was undertaken on well PPB-02- 22 between 8 November and 8 December 2022 (30 days). The average flow rate over the duration of this test was 21.2 L/s, with a range between 19.0 and 23.2 L/s. A total of 121 samples were recovered during the LTPT test and chemical analysis was undertaken at Alex Stewart NOA laboratory in Jujuy, Argentina. The average extracted lithium grade was 838 mg/L, with a range between 815 and 866 mg/L. During the LTPT, measured drawdown at observation well PP-02-22 reached less than 6 metres, indicating the presence of a highly transmissive zone. Subsequent analysis of the aquifer transmissivity is higher when compared to the previous LTPTs at Pata Pila and Rana de Sal. This was expected due to the coarser sediments recovered during PPB-02-22 drilling and its more proximal location along the alluvial fan. A new surface geophysical survey at the HMW Project was conducted by Quantec Geoscience Argentina during November and December 2022. This new survey used the Transient Electromagnetic Method and consisted of 13 lines which spanned more than 23 km. With this new data, the deposit has been fully constrained within the resource area, providing a better geometric resolution. Additionally, this work provides further confidence in exploration targeting future resource expansion - for example, in the Santa Bárbara tenements where drilling is now in progress at drillhole, SB-01-22. With the aim of expanding the HMW Project resource and reserves, exploration well PS-01-22 has been drilled at Pucara del Salar. This diamond drill hole is 300m deep with recovered core indicating the presence of highly fractured rock, expected to be associated with a high permeability zone. Airlift results from PS-01-22 indicate the presence of high-grade brine, with lithium concentrations reaching up to 988 mg/L and averaging 974 mg/L. Announcement • Dec 20
Galan Lithium Limited Announces Maiden Drilling Program at the Newly Defined Fry's Block Located Within its 100% Owned Greenbushes South Lithium Project Galan Lithium Limited announced a maiden drilling program at the newly defined Fry's Block located within its 100% owned Greenbushes South Lithium Project. Diamond drilling is scheduled to commence in late January 2023, pending receipt of program of works approvals. The Greenbushes South Lithium Project (the Project) is located 250 km south of Perth, in Western Australia and covers an area of approximately 315 km2. The Project tenements are located along the trace of the Donnybrook-Bridgetown Shear Zone geologic structure, which hosts the lithium- bearing pegmatites at the Greenbushes Lithium Mine (Greenbushes). The maiden drill campaign is designed to test delineated pegmatites hosted within the Donnybrook-Bridgetown Shear Zone structure. Greenbushes is currently the large hard-rock lithium mine in the world and has been in production since 1983. It is operated by Talison Lithium Pty Ltd, a private company now owned by joint venture partners Tianqi Lithium Corporation /IGO Limited JV (51%) and Albemarle Corporation (49%). The five-hole diamond drilling program has been developed to test three interpreted pegmatite targets at the Fry's Block Prospect on E70/4790. The shallow-angled drilling program follows recent successful fieldwork campaigns, including highly encouraging geophysics and soil sampling results. Located approximately 3 km from the operational Greenbushes mine, the potential pegmatite targets at Fry's Block are thought to be part of a more extensive, interfingering geologic system. Diamond drilling has been selected to capture the sample and geometry of the pegmatites, details of their magmatic histories as well as any potential irregularities in grade distribution. Exploration within E70/4790 tenement is ongoing, with additional ground geophysics planned as a follow-up to historical and pending soil transects to aid in the identification of blind pegmatites at depth.

Galan Lithium Limited Provide an Update on the Various Evaluation Workstreams in Progress on Hombre Muerto West Project Galan Lithium Limited provided an update on the various evaluation workstreams in progress on its 100%-owned Hombre Muerto West Project in Catamarca Province, Argentina. Further excellent long-term pump test results: The long-term pumping test at the PBRS-01-21 well (Rana de Sal) was conducted between 14 September and 16 October 2022, at a constant rate of 25 litres per second. This was the second long-term pumping test conducted at the HMW Project, following the one completed on the PPB-01-21 well (Pata Pila) during July 2022. A total of 141 assays were received from the test and analysed at Alex Stewart NOA laboratory (Jujuy). Lithium grades varied between 941 and 997 mg/L, with an attractive mean value of 967 mg/L. Grades remained relatively stable thorough the entire test period showing a remarkably steady distribution. The third long-test pumping test at the HMW Project is currently being undertaken on the PPB-02-22 well (Pata Pila), which is located approximately 930 metres upgradient from the PPB-01-21 well. The test on PPB-02-22 is approximately half complete and is running at a steady flow of 20 L/s. Brine samples and levels are being regularly obtained for laboratory analysis. Results from all three long-term pumping tests are set to form part of the foundational information for the HMW Project Reserves estimation being undertaken by SRK (Australia). To date, the flow and chemical results from PPB-01-21, PBRS-01-21 and PPB-02-22 have demonstrated that the brine feed from these three wells conceptually supports, in terms of both volume and quality, the requirements of the extended 4ktpa LCE pilot plant. Exploration drilling ongoing: Exploration drilling at the HMW Project continues as planned. After drilling two holes at the Del Condor tenement (DC-01-22 and DC-02-22), the diamond drill rig is finalising a new observation well at the Pucara del Salar tenement, located north of Rana de Sal. Drilling is also planned at the Santa Barbara southern tenements shortly thereafter. Evaporation testing and pilot plant ramp-up: Two site-based brine evaporation batch tests have both successfully achieved 6% lithium concentration with low impurities. This is a significant de-risking achievement as it has proven the planned brine evaporation path at the HMW Project location. It also validates the process design and simulation model delineated by Galan, which is being used to upscale and extend the size of the original pilot plant and complete the HMW Project Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS). The original pilot plant ramp-up is progressing to schedule. The addition of raw brine continues to support the required brine volumes to commence continuous production of lithium chloride concentrate expected in Second Quarter CY2023. The continuous production of substantial volumes of 6% Li concentrated brine, will further facilitate Galan's ability to engage with potential off take partners. In particular, product purchasers will be able to readily undertake conversion trials so as to validate and confirm the ability of the brine concentrate to be converted into high-quality Li products. DFS and EIA advancing: Key workstreams for the HMW Project DFS are progressing well, including recent completion of the mass balance and general design of the ponds system. The equipment list is also rapidly progressing with an estimate of key quantities expected to commence within two weeks. Galan is on schedule to deliver the DFS during First Quarter CY2023. The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) study for the HMW Project also remains on schedule. The baseline studies have been finalised and the study team is currently developing the environmental and social impacts analysis. No major issues have been identified and Galan remains on track to deliver a robust and positive EIA in First Quarter CY2023. Announcement • Nov 18

Galan Lithium Limited Submits Application to Increase the Scope of the Piloting Stage for Hombre Muerto West Project Galan Lithium Limited announced the submission of an application to significantly increase the scope of the piloting stage for its 100%-owned Hombre Muerto West Project (HMW Project) in Catamarca Province, Argentina. If the application is successful, the construction of the expanded pilot pond system could commence in mid-2023, allowing Galan to accelerate the ramp up of brine evaporation at the HMW Project. The scaled-up piloting to 4ktpa LCE is expected to deliver targeted first-phase, high-quality 6% Li concentrate on a semi-commercial scale. It is also designed to de-risk the targeted full-scale pond construction methodology and evaporation path, as well as provide better defined cost information for final HMW Project capital and operating estimates. Along with the additional 120 Ha of evaporation ponds, the scaled up pilot plant application includes reagents treatment area, administration and warehouse facilities, laboratory, power supply (including solar plant) and the original small pilot facility to trial production of lithium carbonate. If the extended brine evaporation piloting is successful, and subject to the approval of the exploitation permit of the HMW Project, the concentrated brine from the piloting stage could be added into the HMW Project production scale-up (currently under evaluation), effectively shortening the overall ramp up timeframe of the full-scale HMW Project development.

Galan Lithium Limited Announces 2.5X Increase in Hmw Resource - Now 5.8Mt Lce @ 866 Mg/L Li Galan Lithium Limited reported Mineral Resource estimate for the Hombre Muerto West Project (HMW Project) located in Catamarca Province, Argentina. The revised Mineral Resource estimate was completed by the Australian based team of leading independent geological consultants, SRK Consulting (Australasia) (SRK). The initial HMW Project Mineral Resource Estimate was prepared by SRK and further updated by them on 17 November 2020. Subsequently, SRK incorporated new data gathered during exploration campaigns completed in 2021-2022 and also considered the acquisition of the Casa del Inca I tenement. The revised Mineral Resource estimate incorporates geological and geochemical information obtained from fifteen (15) drillholes totalling 4,384 metres within the Pata Pila, Rana de Sal, Casa del Inca and Del Condor tenements. A total of 236 brine assays were used as a foundation of the estimation, all of which were analysed at Alex Stewart International laboratory (Jujuy). An improved QA/QC program was implemented, including duplicates, triplicates, and standards. In total, 98 QA/QC samples were considered using Alex Stewart (duplicates) and SGS in Argentina (triplicates) as the umpired laboratory. New porosity data was obtained from 131 core samples derived from five (5) drillholes located in the Pata Pila (2) and Rana de Sal (3) tenements in support of the HMW Mineral Resource Estimate. Porosity analysis was undertaken at SGS in Argentina and Daniel B. Stephens & Associates (DBS&A) in New Mexico (United States). To complement directly obtained brine samples and core, approximately 51 km of total surface resistivity (CSAMT and TEM) have been completed since the start of the project. Furthermore, Zelandez has conducted 1,766 metres of downhole geophysical logging in 5 (five) drillholes located in the Pata Pila (2) and Rana de Sal (3) tenements. Mineral Resources have also been reclassified based on the new data, resulting in the Measured Resource now exceeding 4.4 million tonnes of contained lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) product grading 883 mg/L Li. The total Mineral Resource (Measured + Indicated + Inferred) has increased by approximately 158% to now sit at over 5.8 million tonnes of contained LCE grading at 866 mg/L Li. A summary of the updated HMW Mineral Resource is provided in the Mineral Resource Statement. No cut-off grade has been applied to the updated Mineral Resource estimate as minimum block grades of 620 mg/L Li exceeded the anticipated economic threshold. This exceptional characteristic of the HMW reservoir reflects the highly homogenous brine quality throughout the tenements which permits the aggregation of the complete ore body and simplifies future operational, and process constrains. Summary of Resource Estimate and Reporting Criteria; The original Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) was completed by SRK Consulting (Australasia) (SRK) in March 2020 and was based upon results from 1,054 metres of drilling within the Pata Pila, Rana de Sal and Casa del Inca tenement holdings at Hombre Muerto West. The hydrogeologic domains were constrained to logged units within the drillholes and supported by interpretation Controlled Source Audio-Frequency Magnetotellurics (CSMAT) and Transient Electromagnetic (TEM) geophysical profiles. Mineral Resource Estimates for lithium (reported as Li2CO3 equivalent) and potassium (KCl equivalent) were completed by SRK. According to SRK, the Hombre Muerto West MRE is hosted within geologically well-defined zones of high-grade lithium mineralisation including significant mineralised hydrogeologic domains. The units within the domains show some variation in thickness along strike and depth, refer Figure 2. Location & Tenure; The HMW Project is located on the western shore of the Hombre Muerto Salar, a world-renowned lithium bearing salar located in the Argentinean Puna plateau region of the high Andes at an elevation of approximately 4,000m above sea-level. The HMW Project comprises various exploration areas (note that the Catalina and Pucara tenements are not included in the HMW resource), covering a total estimated polygon area of 7.5km strike, up to 2.5km in width and up to 718m in depth. It lies adjacent to Livent Corporation, Allkem Limited and POSCO's Sal de Vida projects. It is approximately 1,400 km northwest of the capital of Buenos Aires and 170 km west-southwest of the city of Salta. Announcement • Oct 13

Galan Lithium Limited Announces High-Flow, High-Grade Pumping Test Results Continue Galan Lithium Limited provided an update on the well pumping test and exploration programs for its 100%-owned Hombre Muerto West Lithium Project (HMW Project), located on the Western Basin of the Hombre Muerto salar in Catamarca Province, Argentina. The pumping tests are an integral part of the current DFS for the HMW Project. Well pump testing program delivering excellent results: Pata Pila: The 30-day long term pumping test at the first Pata Pila well (PPB-01-21) was successfully completed at the end of July. The sustained pumping rates were solid, ranging between 17 and 20 L/s. More than 150 brine samples were collected during this testing phase, with laboratory analysis returning an average Li grade of 874 mg/L (from a range of 821 to 927 mg /L). The hydraulic testing of the second pumping well at Pata Pila (PPB-02-22) is set to commence shortly. This well is located approximately 800m upgradient in the Pata Pila alluvial fan. Rana de Sal: The first pumping well at Rana de Sal (PBRS-01-21) is currently under hydraulic testing. Following an initial step test, a 72-hour constant rate and recovery test was recently performed. During this test, the pumping rate was stabilised at 20 L/s and drawdown was measured in three monitoring wells. Eighteen (18) brine samples were also collected during this testing phase, with laboratory analysis returning outstanding Li grades ranging between 932 and 957 mg/L, with a mean of 945 mg/L. A long term (30-day) pumping test is set to commence shortly on PBRS-01-21, with an expected initial flow rate in the range of 22 to 27 L/s. Pumping tests are expected to conclude in early October 2022. All data obtained during the testing campaign is being analysed by SRK as part of the development of the Resource and Reserve model for the HMW Project. Exploration drillholes at Rana de Sal intercept thick sedimentary unit: Two diamond drill (DDH) exploration wells were recently completed at Rana de Sal, RS-02-22 and RS-03-22. Both exploration wells are upgradient of PBRS-01-21 where pumping tests are being conducted. Both holes intersected thick sedimentary facies before hitting basement at 270 and 390 metres below surface, respectively. The boreholes were completed with a 2-inch slotted PVC, and brine samples were recovered using the airlift method (conducted over 72 hours). Preliminary Lithium grades returned from laboratory analysis ranged between 923 and 1,035 mg/L, consistent with the high extracted grades at pumping well PBRS-01-21. Extended exploration at Casa del Inca and Del Condor tenements: Exploration drilling continues at the HMW Project with the next drillhole (CI-01-22) located at Casa del Inca. This drillhole is designed to validate the potential hydrogeological extension of the brine reservoir between the Pata Pila alluvial fan and salar margin below recent lava flows in Casa del Inca, as suggested by surface resistivity surveys. Drilling at CI-01-22 shows a fractured basalt unit overlying unconsolidated sands and gravels. The drillhole was completed to a depth of 155m. Following the finalization of CI-01-22, drilling will commence in del Condor (DC-01-22) with the aim of improving certainty in the area connecting Rana de Sal and Pata Pila for the updated resource.

Galan Lithium Limited Updates on its Exploration Activities at the Greenbushes South Lithium Project Galan Lithium Limited provided an update on its ongoing exploration activities at the Greenbushes South Lithium Project (a joint venture between the company (80%) and Lithium Australia Limited (20%)) (Greenbushes South). Discovery of new outcropping pegmatite with 500m+ strike length remains open along strike with geological mapping ongoing. New soil assays spatially associated with prior pegmatite discovery reveal up to 215 ppm Li; further soil and rock chip assay results pending. UltraFine+ assay method also confirms presence of anomalous pathfinder element concentrations (As, Cs). Pilot ground geophysics program in process, consisting of passive seismic (HSVR), gravity and resistivity methods. Processed HSVR and gravity data outcomes expected in next few weeks. Geological mapping activities ongoing; large new outcropping pegmatite discovered: Geological mapping continues within Exploration Licence E70/4790. Recent new field discoveries include a pegmatite in three main outcrops spanning an area approximately 500m x 400m. There are also strong indications that this pegmatite remains open and continues along strike. This builds on the previous pegmatite discovery (200m x 40m) announced in June 2022. Detailed mapping and geochemical sampling are ongoing. Initial geochemical results; anomalous lithium concentrations up to 215 ppm: The company has received the first batch (65 in total) of geochemical assays from the soil sampling grids traversing the initial pegmatite discovery. The results confirm anomalous concentrations of lithium up to 215 ppm, as well as for pathfinder elements such as and Cs. A further 170 assays from this soil sampling program are pending, as well as the assays for 15 rock chip samples taken from the earlier mapped pegmatite outcrops. The returned soil results were assayed using the UltraFine+ assay technique that delivers high fidelity multi-element analysis derived from the ultrafine (< 2 m) fraction of soil samples. The UltraFine+method is an analytical process flow developed by CSIRO and LabWest which often returns stronger signals well above instrumental detection limits, usefully increasing signal-to-background ratios. The company has now submitted all historical soil samples from Greenbushes South to be re-assayed utilising this method. Ground geophysical initiatives; HSVR and gravity results pending: A pilot study utilising ground-based geophysical techniques to explore blind (buried) pegmatite targets has been completed in the Greenbushes South project areas. The survey consists of passive seismic (HSVR) and gravity surveys conducted by Atlas Geophysics. Data processing is underway and results are expected to be available in the coming weeks. Additionally, a resistivity study is also planned to be completed by GBG in the next few weeks to further aid in defining the orientation of pegmatite at depth. Announcement • Jul 14
Galan Lithium Limited Provides Update on Hombre Muerto West Lithium Project Galan Lithium Limited provided an update on the long-term pump testing program for its 100%-owned Hombre Muerto West Lithium Project (HMW Project), located on the Western Basin of the Hombre Muerto salar in Catamarca Province, Argentina. These tests are an integral part of the current Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) for the HMW Project. The well pump testing program is advancing at the HWM Project in order to evaluate the hydraulic properties of the target brine bearing aquifers. A series of hydraulic tests have been successfully performed on the first pumping well at Pata Pila (PPB-01-21). These include a step test and constant rate test. Long term (30-day) pumping tests at PPB-01-21 began on 30 June and are set to conclude on 30 July 2022. Brine levels and samples for geochemical analysis will be collected throughout the testing period. This series of pump tests are planned to be conducted across a further three wells, being a second well at Pata Pila and two wells at Rana de Sal. Testing of the first well at Rana de Sal (PBRS-01-21) is expected to commence in the next few days. All well pump test data is to be incorporated into the upcoming HMW Resource/Reserve model. This will form part of the current DFS for the HMW Project, being undertaken by Hatch Engineering. Constant rate test outcomes at Pata Pila: High lithium grades and brine flow rates The constant rate test was performed for 72 hours and observed with three (3) different piezometers. Aquifer response during the pumping test indicates favorable conditions (permeability) for brine production with expected flowrates between 15 20 L/s per well at Pata Pila. Fourteen brine samples were collected throughout the duration of the test and analyzed for lithium (Li) at the Alex Stewart laboratory. Chemical results positively confirm a high-grade brine resource, with an increasing Li grade during pumping, stabilising at approximately 910 mg/L. The site operations and sampling procedures were supervised by SRK Consultants. Data from the first batch of twenty (20) core samples obtained from the Pata Pila Diamond Drillhole undergoing Relative Brine Release Capacity (RBRC) testing has been received. These analyses were conducted at the Daniel B. Stephens & Associates (DBS&A) laboratories based in Albuquerque, USA. The RBRC results are positive with specific yield values consistent with reported values in the literature for medium-to-fine sand lithologies, and as previously described with respect to the core samples. The RBRC values ranged between 10.1% and 21.0%, with a mean specific yield value of 14.1%. A second batch consisting of 39 core samples has already been selected by SRK geologists on site and is being prepared for transportation to the DBS&A laboratory. This batch includes samples from both Rana de Sal and Pata Pila. Recent Insider Transactions • Jun 29

Galan Lithium Limited Provides an Update on its Ongoing Exploration Activities at the Greenbushes South Lithium Project Galan Lithium Limited provided an update on its ongoing exploration activities at the Greenbushes South Lithium Project (a joint venture between Galan (80%) and Lithium Australia Limited (20%) (Greenbushes South). Airborne geophysics processed and key target zones identified: Galan has received the processed data and target generation report from the recent airborne geophysical survey campaign for its Greenbushes South tenement (E70/4790). This survey provided high-resolution radiometric and magnetic data from a fixed-wing aircraft flying at an average of 45 metres of terrain clearance, a significant improvement for resolution over previous publicly available data sets. Southern Geoscience Consultants (SGC) provided processing and interpretation of this new data as well as the development of key target zones for lithium-bearing pegmatites. Target generation incorporated structural and lithological information (provided by the airborne data), as well as field mapping and surface geochemistry undertaken by Galan. The new magnetic, radiometric and DEM data gives more precision to the location of the mineralising Donny-Brook Bridgetown Shear Zone (DBSZ), associated with the Greenbushes pegmatite. The final report from SGC identified twelve pegmatite targets within Galan's granted E70/4790 tenement, and an additional six pegmatite targets within Galan's pending tenements. Sampling and mapping program commenced; pegmatite outcrop discovered Following the above, Galan initiated a soil sampling and field mapping program over the first of the newly identified targets on E70/4790. Field mapping activities over the GS11 target area revealed an outcrop of approximately 200 m long by 40 m wide pegmatite. This pegmatite has similar macroscopic mineralogy to those pegmatites described at the Greenbushes Lithium Mine to the north. The assemblages are albite-quartz ± microcline ± muscovite ± garnet. The pegmatite lens hosts several tourmaline-rich zones at a metre scale and is recognized by coarse-grained tourmaline and high abundances of interstitial albite quartz and muscovite. Galan has sampled four representative rock chip samples from the surficial pegmatite at GS11. A partially completed soil assay program has also been undertaken, with 65 soil samples to date at 50 m x 100 m grid spacing across the potential target zone centred over the pegmatite outcrop. The soil sampling program is aimed at delineating potential pegmatites at depth through the detection of elevated levels of pathfinder elements at the surface (As, Sn, Cs, Ta, Rb). Galan has submitted these rock and soil samples for assay and is awaiting results. Completion of the soil grid over GS11, and further follow-up soil and rock chip sampling work on other targets along the major structure that hosts the mineralisation are planned in third quarter, 2002. The results will help guide the geophysical survey to test for blind pegmatites. Conservation Management Plan reaches final revisions Galan has also received its final revisions from the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA) for the Conservation Management Plan (CMP) for its planned exploration activities on pending Greenbushes South tenements (E70/4889, P70/1702 & P70/1703). The CMP outlines the proposed exploration and prospecting activities, management, and communications for work within the Hester State Forest (30) /Proposed Nature Reserve (154). Galan has provided the DBCA with its planned soil sampling and ground geophysics activities within these state forests. Planned activities are aimed to commence during third quarter 2022. The DBCA has indicated that subject to the final revisions of the CMP, the pending tenements will then be submitted for ministerial approval to undertake these low-impact exploration activities.

Galan Lithium Limited Announces Long Term Pumping Tests to Commence at HMW Project Galan Lithium Limited announced the initiation of the long-term pumping test program at its 100%-owned Hombre Muerto West Lithium Project (HMW Project), located on the Western Basin of the Hombre Muerto salar in Catamarca Province, Argentina. These tests are an integral part of the current Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) for the HMW Project. The program consists of four (4) platforms. Two (2) are located at Pata Pila (PPB-01-21 (constructed) and PPB-02-22 (under construction)), with the other two located at Rana de Sal (RSB-01-22 (constructed) and RSB-02-22 (to be constructed)). The pump tests and subsequent analysis work is expected to be completed by the end of third quarter of CY2022. Each platform consists of one pumping well and 2 to 3 nearby monitoring wells. The construction of each monitoring well was specifically designed by WSP (Chile) to provide the optimal hydraulic information from the test and the expected evolution of the future production well field. The pumping tests are comprised of two phases: The first phase characterizes the hydraulic information and consists of an initial step-drawdown test, a recovery test and a constant rate test for a total of one week. Brine samples are also collected on each test. The second phase is the execution of a long term (30 days) production pilot test. Several brine samples will be obtained during this phase. The main objectives of these tests are to: Determine the hydraulic properties of the brine reservoir (permeability, vertical anisotropy and storage coefficient) for each aquifer unit; Verify the maximum sustainable pumping rate for each pumping well; and Register hydraulic parameters (flow rate and brine level), chemical and physical parameters evolution of the brine during each test. These tests are set to provide the critical information required for the planned Reserve model, to be conducted by SRK (Australia), as part of the DFS. The Reserve model will provide the basis for the production capacity parameters of the HMW Project, and the expected brine feed for the life-of-mine. Breakeven Date Change • Apr 27

Galan Lithium Limited Provides Update on the Intensive Site and Study Activities in Progress for its Hombre Muerto West Lithium Project in Catamarca Province, Argentina Galan Lithium Limited provided an update on the intensive site and study activities in progress for its 100%-owned Hombre Muerto West Lithium Project (HMW) in Catamarca Province, Argentina. Drilling of two pumping borehole wells has now been completed. These two wells are located at Pata Pila (to 225m depth) and at Rana de Sal (to 200m depth). Short-term pumping tests were successfully performed on both wells. Long term hydraulic pumping tests are set to commence in May 2022, once monitoring wells are constructed. Drilling of the third pumping borehole is set to commence shortly. Construction of the initial evaporation pond (S1), covering approximately 3,000 m2, has now been completed. Commencement of brine filling is imminent as all quality control inspections have been completed. Commencement of brine filling sees the initiation of the evaporation testing activities of the Pilot Plant. This is a major milestone given that it marks the commencement of large-scale piloting activities at HMW. The data set to be obtained from this initial evaporation trial will allow the calibration of the simulation model to predict the completion time for achieving the first batch of brine concentrate with 6% of Li contents produced by the pilot plant. The new expanded camp at HMW has been operational since mid-January 2022. An additional 20,000 litre diesel tank and residual storage area have also been constructed. An exploration diamond drillhole, EXP-002, is currently underway at Pata Pila. This drillhole is strategically located on higher ground and approximately 1km west from the Livent tenement boundary. This drillhole is expected to provide key geological data for testing extension to the existing Mineral Resource, in both horizontal and vertical dimensions, from the Salar's limit. An update to the existing HMW Mineral Resource estimate is expected to be completed by Third Quarter CY2022. Downhole probe at Rana de Sal (Pumping Borehole No 2): Borehole geophysics were conducted on borehole well, PBRS-01-21, within the Rana de Sal I tenement. Several geophysical probes were used including Borehole Magnetic Resonance (BMR), Conductivity and Temperature probe, Natural Gamma and Caliper. The BMR method provides an accurate characterisation of pore structure in the subsurface by measuring signals from magnetic resonance. PBRS-01-21 was profiled up to 200m depth with data strongly correlating with the geological logging done by Galan's geological team. Significant high porosity zones were observed along the profile. Consistent higher values of mobile (free) brine were recognised between 150 and 190 metres depth (approximately), in a gravel unit, which is considered potentially favourable for brine production. This BMR profile strengthens the hydrogeological conceptual model and allows Galan to better recognise units for the construction of productive wells in the considered Mineral Resource area. These profile results continue to support SRK's Mineral Resource estimate models. Recent Insider Transactions • Feb 10

Galan Lithium Limited Announces Proof of Concept Tests Achieved Battery Grade Quality 99.88% Galan Lithium Limited announced these exciting proof of concept test work results for the precipitation of battery grade lithium carbonate product at its flagship Hombre Muerto West (HMW) project located in the South American Lithium Triangle in Catamarca, Argentina. Highlights: Proof of concept laboratory test of HMW Project's Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE) achieves 99.88% of purity (minimum requirement of Battery Grade Quality of >99.5% LCE); The test feedstock was the high quality brine concentrate, with lithium contents >6%, obtained through the evaporation test done at Antofagasta; The test also delivered great results for the removal of SO4, B, Ca and Mg, which can be difficult contaminants to remove; The test was overseen by specialist consultants Ad-infinitum who also identified cost saving opportunities for further improving the results with a higher LCE purity. The first laboratory test work for producing lithium carbonate was conducted in Antofagasta under the supervision of specialised consultancy firm, Ad-Infinitum. The test used as a feedstock the high quality brine concentrate with >6% of Li contents obtained through the evaporation test work also undertaken in Antofagasta. The test procedure and test work activities were developed and supervised by Ad-Infinitum. They initially optimised the concentration stage, producing a purer product thus reducing reagent consumption and opex costs. Importantly at the next stage, further reagent cost reductions were identified, as a cleaner concentrate requires less reagents and volume impurities to be removed for the precipitation of lithium carbonate. As a result, the battery grade was obtained with no requirement to do undertake an additional purification step using dissolution with CO2. The assay of the lithium carbonate sample was completed at an external laboratory located in Santiago. The delivered result achieved 99.88% of lithium carbonate contents exceeding the minimum quality of 99.5% for battery grade products. On the back of the developing test procedures, Ad-Infinitum also identified other opportunities for further improving results. These opportunities will be adopted in the future test work activities at both laboratory and pilot plant levels with the possibility to further improve the quality of the battery grade lithium carbonate product. This proof of concept milestone adds more flexibility to the adoption of a preferable processing design for the HMW Project. The study team is working on different alternatives to optimise the combined outcome for the pond design and lithium carbonate plant design. Announcement • May 17

Galan Lithium Limited Provides an Update of Low Use Energy and Lithium Carbon Footprint Solution for Hombre Muerto West Project Located in the South American Lithium Triangle in Catamarca, Argentina Galan Lithium Limited provided an update of its low use energy and lithium carbon footprint solution for its Hombre Muerto West (HMW) project located in the South American Lithium Triangle in Catamarca, Argentina. HMW Project Update; Chemical laboratory work for the HMW Project is now 85% complete. The work is being performed by lithium experts Ad-Infinitum in Antofagasta, Chile. The brine concentration model prediction shows a sound correlation between actual laboratory results and the predictive brine evaporation model. Furthermore, these results can be seen across the prediction of the concentration of lithium and impurities. In parallel, Ad-Infinitum has been optimising the evaporation route options during the PEA/Scoping Study by testing different reagents in the evaporation process to produce high grade lithium chloride concentrate. Galan took a solutions based approach to deal with the closure of the various engaged Universities in Antofagasta whilst other local labs have not been taking further samples due to heavy restrictions implemented in the region to contain the spread of COVID-19. As a result, delays were encountered due to the logistical challenges to send brine to the lab in Santiago, some 1,400km away. Nevertheless, testing continues to advance with final lab results expected by the end of this month. Meanwhile at site at HMW, the preparation for future Study activities continues. A new site for the HMW camp and pilot areas has been located. The new camp will provide better support to the crew while also reducing travelling time that is currently 40km east of Candelas.

Galan Lithium Limited Announces Results of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for its 100% owned Hombre Muerto West Project in Catamarca Province, Argentina Galan Lithium Limited announced the results of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for its 100% owned Hombre Muerto West Project in Catamarca Province, Argentina. The PEA, at a minimum, complies with the Canadian NI 43-101 regulation known as a PEA and is equivalent to a JORC Scoping Study. The PEA process has provided significant economic outcomes for the HMW Project which Galan believes can be finessed and enhanced further to optimise the Project's obvious potential. The Study estimated a production profile of 20,000 tonnes per annum of battery grade lithium carbonate product. The analysis provides outcomes that are considered very competitive with compelling results for the lithium industry. The preparation of the Project's PEA was carried out by several well-regarded consultants. The mineral resource estimate was prepared by SRK, the lithium recovery method was designed by Ad-Infinitum, while Worley Chile reviewed the potential recovery method, the project's potential layout and infrastructure, capital and operating cost estimates and preliminary economic evaluation. The other sections of the study were managed by employees of Galan Lithium Limited. The Hombre Muerto West (HMW) Project is part of the Hombre Muerto basin, one of the most globally prolific salt flats, located in the Argentinean Puna plateau of the high Andes mountains at an elevation of approximately 4,000 m above sea level (asl). The project is in the geological province of Puna, 90 km north of the town of Antofagasta de la Sierra, province of Catamarca. The HMW Project is located to the West and South of the Salar del Hombre Muerto. The HMW Project is in close proximity to other world class lithium projects owned by Galaxy Resources, Posco and Livent. It is around 1,400 km northwest of the capital of Buenos Aires and 170 km west-southwest of the city of Salta (in a straight line). The mineral resource estimation was undertaken by SRK Consulting (Australasia) Pty Ltd. (SRK) and was based upon results from drill holes within the Pata Pila and Rana de Sal tenement holding at Hombre Muerto West for a total of 1,054 metres. The mineral resource estimates undertaken by SRK were determined for lithium and potassium. Lithium is reported as lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) equivalent, and potassium as potassium chloride (KCI).
