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 14% 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 Risk Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (4.5% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Oct 18
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 4.5% 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 Risk Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risk Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (4.5% increase in shares outstanding). Announcement • Sep 28

New Risk • Sep 15
New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 45% 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 45% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (9.4% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (AU$374k sold). New Risk • Jul 16
New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: AU$374k This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on current free cash flow (-AU$224m). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (13% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (AU$374k sold). Recent Insider Transactions • Jul 15

Tietto Minerals Limited Reports More Highgrade Gold Results from the AbujarGludehi Tietto Minerals Limited reported more highgrade gold results from the AbujarGludehi (AG) deposit, part of its 2.2Moz Abujar Gold Project in Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa, demonstrating the gold
mineralised systems' potential for continued growth. Tietto is on track to release an updated resource estimate for Abujar in midOctober following completion of more than 61,000m of drilling. Diamond Drilling Progress: Tietto has completed over 61,000m of diamond drilling using its own diamond drill rigs at AG, AG South, APG and GGL since the November 2019 Mineral Resource Estimate (2.2Moz). This drilling has been designed for rapid resource growth at low discovery cost by testing the limits of gold mineralisation along strike and at depth at AG, AG South, APG and delineating new mineral resources at GGL. This announcement relates to the latest batch of assays received for holes completed at AG, APG and GGL: AG - Extending highgrade core (19.3Mt @ 2.2 g/t Au for 1.38Moz) - AG South - Shallow highgrade gold mineralisation directly south of AG - APG - Extension to shallow oxide resources 7km south of AG - GGL (from AG to Gamina) - Directly north of AG; extensive artisanal workings. AG Resource: Significant intersections from the latest batch of assays received for 1m diamond drill samples taken from AG. An oblique crosssection presents the assay results. Highgrade gold mineralisation remains open along strike and at depth. Tietto plans to drill more holes along strike at AG, as well as further stepback drilling to test the depth limits of this large highgrade gold system. Tietto has now reported 40 highgrade gold intercepts over 50 gold gram metres within the
highgrade core at AG. APG Resource: Tietto's diamond drilling program at APG is designed to provide shallow openpitable gold ounces that would complement a potential highgrade openpit operation at AG, which is
7km to the north. Significant intersections from the latest batch of assays received for 1m diamond drill samples taken from APG. APG Resource: Tietto's diamond drilling program at APG is designed to provide shallow openpitable gold ounces that would complement a potential highgrade openpit operation at AG, which is 7km to the north. Significant intersections from the latest batch of assays received for 1m diamond drill samples taken from APG. GGL Prospect: Tietto's diamond drilling program at GGL is designed to provide shallow openpitable gold ounces that would complement a potential highgrade openpit operation at AG, which is located immediately to the south. Gold mineralisation remains open along strike and at depth. Tietto plans to drill more holes at GGL to test the limits of this gold system beneath significant artisanal workings. 2021 Resource Program: Tietto will continue to deliver aggressive exploration drilling programs targeting resource growth into 2021. Fleet of diamond rigs have delivered rapid resource growth for what
is arguably the lowest discovery cost in West Africa and will continue to do so. Tietto currently has five of its own diamond drill rigs on site. Substantial exploration upside remains at the Abujar Gold Project, made up of three contiguous tenements (totalling 1,114km2) which cover multiple parallel gold mineralised zones over a 70km shear structure that remains untested by drilling.
