New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 58% 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 Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (58% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m. Market cap is less than US$10m (AU$6.14m market cap, or US$4.01m). Announcement • Feb 15

Vertex Minerals Limited Provides Further Update on Start-Up Operations At the Reward Gold Mine At Hill End Vertex Minerals Limited provided a further update on start-up operations at the Reward Gold Mine at Hill End. As previously announced, the Company has been refurbishing the Reward Processing Plant and this commissioning process provided the first gold in concentrate in August. Concentrate produced (which principally represents historical gold-in-circuit including material from sumps) has now been successfully refined on-site and smelted to a doré bar of approximately 0.5kg which is being delivered to the ABC Refinery in Sydney. Commissioning works to support the processing of stockpiled material adjacent to the plant site are now complete, with processing of stockpiled material now underway on a staged stepped-up approach. The plant has been run a few days a week on short shiOs, while other work was undertaken, including water supply systems, tails water re2cula2on, security systems, road works, infrastructure, and general op2misa2on. This work forms part of ongoing prepara2ons for future mine opera2ons, following the recent comple2on of a JORC- 2012 compliant Mineral Resource Es2mate (MRE) for the Reward Gold Mine by independent consultants HGS Australia (refer ASX Announcement 6 July 2023).

Vertex Minerals Limited Announces Drill Results for Red Hill and Hargraves Vertex Minerals Limited announced drilling results from the last of the Red Hill program and the first hole at Hargraves, at the recently granted EL 9485, which is, in turn, entirely surrounded by the company's existing EL6996. There has been no systematic exploration on EL9485 for many decades. It is considered highly prospective for continuation of quartz veins containing very high gold grades. illustrates Section A-A, which is on the Company's EL6996 and adjacent to the first Vertex drill hole at Hargraves and the new exploration license. The Section A-A shows a geological interpretation and the assay results from past drilling programs. illustrates Section B-B, which is a cross section through the new EL9485 and showing HRGD001, the first hole drilled by Vertex at Hargraves, with the down plunge continuation of quartz veining that represents the exploration target on EL9485. This down plunge extension of quartz veins is well founded at Hargraves, with an extensive drill database that supports the southerly plunge of the vein system. This trend is illustrated in Figure 4, and shows the upper exploration target where some depletion from historic mining is to be expected, plus two deeper exploration targets. The middle target is supported by drill data on either side of EL9485. The Hargraves drilling program is the Company's second drill program. Hargraves presents great potential for significant resource growth. The Company believes that there is compelling evidence that the Hargraves deposit is a robust deep plunging deposit, and the gold inventory will benefit from additional drilling. The Mineral Resource of the Hargraves Project stand at 177,000 ounces. Announcement • Jan 19
Vertex Minerals Limited Announces LIDAR Survey Provides Enhanced Targeting Data Vertex Minerals Limited advised that they have overlayed the LiDAR data, from the 2022 LiDAR survey, over known geological structures to provide clear and concise gold targets on their Hargrave and Hill End tenements. Vertex Minerals contracted Aerometrex Ltd. to undertake a LiDAR and Aerial Photographic survey in during the month of September covering an area of 162km2. The Hargraves and Hill End properties were surveyed with LiDAR and 10cm colour RGB aerial photography. The LiDAR was processed to yield a high resolution 50cm ground DTM. A high end RIEGL VQ-780ii Sensor was used for the survey. The LiDAR was flown with and minimum average 20 points per square metre with flying height of 1,000 metres to ensure 10 centimetre vertical accuracy. GeoCloud Analytics was contracted to undertake a detailed interpretation of the data, documenting historical mining evidence and mapping observed structures. The identification and accurate mapping of historical mining activity adds to the existing Government mines database and assist with correctly geo-locating Vertex's database of historical maps and sample data. The LiDAR identification of workings will benefit Vertex in two ways - better understanding of mineralisation and survey accurate location facilitating efficient prospecting. The Survey accurate location of historical workings identified in the LiDAR data gives Vertex Field staff confidence to plan and prospect. Despite best efforts of Government and Vertex compilation of mining activity from records and historical maps, the data is only as good as the map makers and cartographers creating them. The LiDAR data being tied to local survey benchmarks is highly accurate, giving Vertex staff 100% confidence the mapped mining activity is `where it is'. The mapped workings provided the Vertex Geology team greater insight into the extent of mineralization and prevalence of folded structures within the project. This data has provided numerous targets for field follow-up assessment for drill priority. The LiDAR data has been reprocessed to extract and highlight the dormant detail within, to produce an enhanced hillshade. The enhanced hillshade was consumed in 3D and draped on the DTM facilitating detailed interpretation- allowing the identification of structures such as structure, old workings, faults, silicious structures and outcrop. The source point clouds used to produce the DEM are interrogated via machine learning to locate pits and shafts. These features are mapped and further processed with cluster analysis to automate the generation of pit-chain strike vectors for structural trend study. Reprocessing of the DEM allows greater definition of bush access tracks and old drill pads, potentially enabling Vertex to minimize civil earthworks for drill site access and reduce environmental impact by re-using existing tracks and roads in the area.
