Ora Banda Mining Limited Announces Updated Estimates for Its Davyhurst Gold Project ("Dgp") Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves Ora Banda Mining Limited announce updated estimates for its Davyhurst Gold Project ("DGP") Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves as at 30 June 2023. The Mineral Resource Statement for Riverina Area, British Lion, Silver Tongue, Forehand, Sand King, Missouri, Waihi, Callion and Golden Eagle is reported according to the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (the JORC Code) 2012 edition. DGP Mineral Resources are now 1.8M oz compared to 2.0M oz in FY23. Lady Ida Resources totalling 318 oz have been removed from the statement in anticipation of the conclusion to the sale of applicable Lady Ida Tenements. Significant additions to the DGP Mineral Resources come from Riverina Underground, reported on 16 February 2022, where ounces increased by 50% to 303,000 oz. Missouri Mineral Resources were re-estimated and depleted for mining as at 30 June 2023, resulting in a minor reduction in ounces. Sand King Open Pit Mineral Resources were re-estimated, resulting in a minor increase (6%) in ounces. The Sand King Underground Mineral Resource remains unchanged. The Waihi Mineral Resource was re-estimated resulting in a 6% increase in ounces. All Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources within the pit envelopes were included in the Probable Ore Reserve estimate, where the resource exceeded the economic cut-off grade, following the application of mining dilution and ore loss modifying factors. Any Inferred Mineral Resource contained within the optimised pit envelopes was treated as waste with zero grade. Existing surface stockpiles are not included in the Mineral Resources. The Ore Reserve was estimated from the relevant Mineral Resource estimates referred to in this announcement. These Mineral Resources were depleted to 30 June 2023. The Ore Reserve was generated from design studies using current costs as well as geotechnical, dilution and recovery parameters. Costs were derived from the FY24 budget estimate including contract pricing current at the date of this Ore Reserve. Unit costs for haulage, processing and site overheads were estimated based on full utilisation of process plant capacity using material above the economic cut-off grade. Fullutilisation of process capacity is reliant on realising expected conversion of further Mineral Resource to Ore Reserve or supplementing plant feed by toll treating third party sources. Mineral Resource updates and mining depletions are factored in alongside operational efficiencies to form a robust business case on which to build a strong future for Ora Banda. TheMineral Resource of 1.8Moz also provides extensive future organic growth opportunities for the Company. All economic Mineral Resource within the mining envelopes classified as Measured was classified as Proved within the Ore Reserve following the application of modifying factors. All economic Mineral Resource within the mining envelopes classified as Indicated was classified as Probable within the Ore Reserve following the application of modifying factors. All surface stockpiles above the economic cut-off were classified as Proved. Reported Earnings • Sep 29

New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: AU$152.5m (US$99.2m) 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 Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-AU$12m free cash flow). Earnings have declined by 8.1% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (23% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (AU$152.5m market cap, or US$99.2m). Reported Earnings • Mar 17

Ora Banda Mining Limited Updates Estimate of Mineral Resources and Maiden Ore Reserve for Its Riverina Underground Ora Banda Mining Limited announced an updated estimate of Mineral Resources and a maiden Ore Reserve for its Riverina Underground. OBM's new 3-Year Strategy to pivot from open pits to explore for high-grade underground mines has paid swift dividends with the release of the updated Resource and maiden Reserve for the Riverina Underground Project, with key highlights including: Riverina Underground Mineral Resource doubles to 303,000 ounces at 4.1g/t New Resource is robust with minimum mining width of 1.6m applied Resource remains open in all directions, with Phase 2 of the exploration program to commence in March 2023. Phase 2 program is targeted to extend the mineralisation envelope further south and at depth Riverina underground maiden ore reserve of 73,000 ounces averages 4.3g/t, with more Reserve conversion only limited by drilling density. Reserves calculated using gold price of AUD 1,850/oz and using a minimum mining width of 2.2m in stoping The Reserve is primarily made up of the Main Lode mineralisation only, with the Murchison lode making up less than 3% of the Reserve due to it having an inferred classification in the resource. Conversion from resources into reserves is a key component of the in-fill grade control drilling. The Phase 1 exploration program drilled 24% more holes in the 6 months from Jul-22 to Dec-22 than the entire amount of diamond drilling at Riverina Underground from 1984 to 2021. The Company has progressed setting up for the underground mine with key works completed to date including: Riverina pit mined down a further 15m to fresh rock to expose Main Portal and Ventilation Portal accesses. The underground mining tender process is well advanced and expected to be completed in March 2023. A mining commencement notice was submitted to DMIRS on 10 February 2023, with mining able to commence 45 days after this notice, therefore Ora Banda will be able to commence mining after 27 March 2023. The investment case for the FID is expected to be presented to the Ora Banda Board in the March quarter and is proposed to include consideration of inferred material that will convert to Reserve with further drilling as well as Resource extensions The Company has potential to achieve a production profile above 100koz per annum, underpinned by Reserves, with further production and reserve growth expected from resource conversion. Key points of note for the 100kozpa target include: Primarily based on Riverina Underground Project with the higher reserve grade of 4.3g/t materially increasing production and lowering costs Initial schedules under review demonstrate >600ktpa of ore is achievable and sustainable from Riverina underground. The current underground Resource of more than 300,000oz is open in all directions and a Phase 2 drilling program will target extensions to the mineralisation envelope further south and at depth.

Ora Banda Mining Limited Provides Exploration Update Ora Banda Mining Limited provided exploration update. Highlights: Further strong results from Phase 1 drilling continue to enhance the Riverina system for underground mining potential. Latest drill results will included in an updated Mineral Resource Estimate - to be announced in February 2023. New significant intercepts include: 2.0m @ 49.8 g/t - Main Lode East; 2.0m @ 20.2 g/t - Main Lode East (including 1.5m @ 27.5g/t); 3.6m @ 10.4 g/t - Main Lode East (including 0.5m @ 74.0g/t); 1.8m @ 18.2g/t - Main Lode East; 2.5m @ 12.1g/t - Main Lode East (including 2.3m @ 13.0g/t); 4.8m @ 6.0g/t - Main Lode East (including 2.1m @ 12.6g/t); 1.4m @ 14.2g/t - Main Lode East; 3.7m @ 26.9 g/t - Main Lode West; 2.8m @ 16.8 g/t - Main Lode West (including 2.2m @ 21.0g/t); 4.1m @ 9.3g/t - Main Lode West (including 3.5m @ 10.7g/t); 6.3m @ 5.9 g/t - Main Lode West (including 3.5m @ 9.5g/t); 0.3m @ 74.0g/t - Murchison Lode; 4.0m @ 39.0 g/t - Murchison Lode (including 3.8m @ 41.3g/t); 8.8m @ 4.9 g/t - Murchison Lode (including 5.8m @ 6.8g/t); 7.5m @ 3.1g/t Murchison Lode (including 6.5m @ 3.4g/t). The Riverina mineralised system remains open at depth on multiple lodes. Phase 2 Diamond drilling scheduled to recommence in March 2023. OBM's Underground Exploration Strategy: A key pillar of OBM's 3-Year Strategy is to create value is by committing exploration expenditure targeting high-grade underground ore to enhance the potential to increase production above 100kozpa. OBM prioritised drilling of the underground extensions at Riverina in July 2022, considering: The project had an existing high-grade underground resource of 151koz at 6.6 g/t; Historical mining down to ~120 vertical metres extracted 100kt at ~12 g/t; Developing the Riverina Underground is considered a relatively quick, low capex option given the existing infrastructure in the area and the ability to develop a mine portal from the base of the current open pit; Riverina ore has been processed at the Davyhurst mill and has recoveries of ~92%. There has been limited deep drilling in the overall system which is open in all directions and was poorly tested below 250 vertical metres. The program currently underway is the first diamond drilling exploration program in more than 12 months on the tenement package. OBM is in the process of collating all exploration data and anticipates announcing a resource update in the March quarter. Main Lode: The Main Lodes are made up of two parallel structures (East and West) that are sub-vertical and ~10 to 15 metres apart. The Main Lode East is the prominent mineralised structure. The current drilling results has further proven the strike continuity of the Main Lode structure for more than. 1km and demonstrated that the system is open in all directions including high grade intercepts at depth. The success of the deepest hole drilled to date (Hole 049) greatly enhances the exploration window at depth and down plunge to the south. Deep extension diamond drilling program scheduled to commence March 2023. Murchison Lode Emerging High Grade Potential at Depth: A new, narrow vein and high-grade extension of the Murchison lode has been identified in deeper drilling that runs parallel to the existing Main Lode . The Murchison Lode is located between ~20m and ~80m east of Main Lode and is presenting as an attractive, high-grade, narrow vein underground exploration and potential mining target. This lode system was not targeted in historical drilling as previous drilling in this area was shallow and largely from the West; therefore there were no deeper intersections. The Murchison Lode has five of the top ten grades ever sampled in the Riverina system and has a proven strike of over 700m and is considered poorly tested below 200m. Deep extension diamond drilling program (March 2023) will also target the Murchison Lodes. Reggies Lode Emerging exploration window: The first hole to hit Reggies Lode at depth returned 0.7m @ 4.2 g/t & 0.5m @ 6.8 g/t greatly enhancing this untested exploration window. All previous drilling on Reggies Lode was relatively shallow targeting near surface open pit resource. Reggies at depth remains a high priority exploration target. Riverina Deposit Ideal geometry for low capital selective mining: Single decline and infrastructure can access all lodes at the same time, improving equipment efficiency and increase production rates. Grade control drilling can be done from stockpiles as the decline advances which allows for fast and accurate geological data and the ability to identify high-grade trends. Access drives off the decline can easily be optimised to ensure they are targeting the higher grade ore, such that waste development is minimised. Board Change • Nov 17
