Lucapa Diamond Company Limited, Annual General Meeting, May 29, 2025 Lucapa Diamond Company Limited, Annual General Meeting, May 29, 2025. New Risk • Mar 01
New major risk - Revenue size The company makes less than US$1m in revenue. This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small amount of revenue 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (17% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 30% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (59% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m.

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Australian stocks, typically moving 17% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility 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. It may also indicate 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (17% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 25% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (60% increase in shares outstanding).

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 60% 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 have declined by 25% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (60% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$10m (AU$8.29m market cap, or US$5.15m).

Lucapa Diamond Company Limited Announces 41 Diamonds Recovered from Lulo Kimberlite L164 Bulk Sample Lucapa Diamond Company Limited together with Project Lulo partners, Endiama and Rosas & Petalas, advised that the results from the completed processing of bulk sample KBS/164/01 from Lulo kimberlite L164 have confirmed that it is a primary source hosting Special sized diamonds. Lulo kimberlite bulk sample KBS/164/01, totalling 2,200 in-situ m3 or 5,641 wet tonnes of kimberlite material, has returned a total of 41 diamonds weighing 66.05 carats, including two Special sized diamonds weighing 15.27 and 12.37 carats with 12 diamonds greater than one carat recovered. This yielded an average grade of 3.00 carats per one hundred cubic metres or 1.17 carats per one hundred tonnes and an average stone size of 1.61 carats. The varying size frequency distributions and the differing diamond characteristics from the many alluvial diamond mining blocks continue to provide evidence that there are multiple primary sources contributing to the secondary alluvial resource on the Lulo concession. The methodical approach to the exploration program will continue with the processing of all the kimberlites on the priority list in order to ensure that all large stone bearing kimberlites are identified and taken to the next stage of evaluation. Kimberlite L164 is located south (upstream) of the Canguige Catchment area and was placed on the priority kimberlite bulk sample list due to its indicator mineral content. Duyuru • Dec 08
Lucapa Diamond Company Limited Announce Diamond Recoveries from Lulo Kimberlite Bulk Sample Lucapa Diamond Company Limited announced the recovery of diamonds from the initial processing of the Lulo kimberlite L164 bulk sample through the stand-alone kimberlite bulk sample plant. Lulo kimberlite L164 bulk sample has yielded 20 diamonds weighing 15.51 carats from the initial processing of ~630m3 of broken kimberlite material, representing a preliminary grade of ~2.5 cphm3 (carats per one hundred m3). Five diamonds greater than 1 carat have been recovered so far from the ~3.5ha kimberlite the stone weighing 1.95 carats. The average size of the diamonds recovered so far is 0.78 carats/stone, a number of them classified as Type IIa by the Yehuda Colorimeter. While the processing of the kimberlite bulk sample is continuing, these initial diamond recoveries already represent the diamond count and carat weight of diamonds recovered from any kimberlite bulk sample processed at Lulo to date. The processing of the remainder of the ~3,200m3 broken kimberlite bulk sample is continuing and a full reconciliation of processed volumes back to in-situ volumes and tonnes will be undertaken when processing is complete.

Lucapa Diamond Company Limited and Endiama and Rosas & Petalas Announce Kimberlite Bulk Sample Plant Operational Lucapa Diamond Company Limited and its partners Project Lulo Joint Venture (Project Lulo JV), Endiama and Rosas & Petalas, announced the stand-alone kimberlite bulk sample plant ("KBSP") has been fully commissioned and the processing of priority kimberlite bulk samples has commenced. The stand-alone KBSP is commissioned and has commenced processing the 15 kimberlites on the current priority bulk sampling list at Lulo. As previously reported, a number of kimberlite bulk samples have already been extracted during the KBSP construction phase and are on the feed pads awaiting treatment through the KBSP. The kimberlite bulk samples will be processed at a rate of approximately two samples every six weeks. To note, it is not expected that every kimberlite sample processed will return a positive diamond result. On a concession with such a high anomaly to kimberlite conversion rate, confirmed kimberlites will be added to the priority sampling list as concurrent discovery drilling and mineral chemistry analysis continues. Commercial diamond mining: The Lulo partners early alluvial exploration programs recovered a number of large and exceptional diamonds pointing to the potential of the alluvial gravels containing a large high-quality diamond population. Further alluvial exploration programs confirmed this large high-quality diamond potential and following the approval of a preliminary feasibility study by the Angolan Government, Sociedade Mineira Do Lulo ("SML") was constituted, and commercial mining operations commenced. In almost eight years of commercial mining to date, the Lulo concession has frequently produced diamonds of exceptional size and quality, where, it is globally renowned as the highest USD/carat alluvial (secondary source) deposit. Since exploration and mining activities commenced at Lulo, in the Cacuilo River Valley, SML has recovered: >150,000 carats at over ~USD 2,000/carat; 29 +100 carat diamonds; and 1,800 +10.8 carat diamonds at an average value of USD 140,000/Special stone; Concurrently with the commercial alluvial mining, and via a separate venture, the Project Lulo JV, the Lulo partners are exploring for the primary source kimberlite(s). If geologically, the large and irregular shaped diamonds are considered to be proximal to their primary source(s), then the anomalies that lie beneath or near to the alluvial mining blocks where these and other high-value value diamonds are being recovered, need to be explored and evaluated. The exploration and drilling programs completed to date by the partners have identified: 560 geophysical anomalies on the entire concession; 360 geophysical anomalies in the Cacuilo River Valley (south-west section), underneath and upstream of where the large exceptional diamonds are being recovered in SML's alluvial mining campaign; 124 kimberlites discovered from 150 anomalies drilled (>80% conversion rate); 130 samples sent for mineral chemistry analysis; 20 prioritised kimberlites based on exploration results and other considerations, including expert peer review; and Eight kimberlites as diamondiferous from sampling results, proving the Cacuilo River Valley kimberlite province to be diamondiferous. Bulk sampling phase: Given the very high number of kimberlites that, in an anticipated lower grade high-value environment, would need to have large volumes of kimberlite material bulk sampled to assess commercial diamondiferous nature, a stand-alone KBSP was ordered and has now been constructed and commissioned at Lulo. 20 kimberlites have been included on the initial priority kimberlite bulk sampling list for this bulk sampling phase, with five already processed through the alluvial treatment plant. The remaining 15 kimberlites will be processed at a rate of approximately two kimberlite samples every six weeks. To note, it is not expected that every kimberlite sample processed will return a positive diamond result. On a concession with such a high anomaly to kimberlite conversion rate, it is expected that new kimberlite discoveries in priority areas will be added to the priority sampling list as concurrent discovery drilling and mineral chemistry analysis continues.

As per the ASX announcement on 11 April 2022, in 1997 and prior to mining commencing at Merlin by Ashton and Rio Tinto in 1999, De Beers used its proprietary Airborne Multispectral Scanner technology to fly over an area in the Northern Territory including Merlin (Map 1). Lucapa acquired the hyperspectral data from IGO Ltd. and it is understood that to date it has not been available to or interpreted by previous operators at Merlin. The signatures identified display elevated magnesium rich clay readings, which are commonly associated with kimberlites. The seven selected kimberlite targets lie ~3km to the east of the known Merlin kimberlites. The seven selected targets will be followed up with visual ground inspection, soil samples for spectral analysis and heavy mineral soil samples.The data is being integrated with existing airborne geophysics, ground geophysics, heavy mineral soil sampling and geochemical soil sampling to identify additional kimberlite targets for follow-up. Additional geophysical work is also planned for the large magnetic target ("Leviathan") on the exploration licence in 2022. Duyuru • Jun 25
Lucapa Diamond Company Limited Provides A Progress Update on the Kimberlite Exploration Work Program in Angola Lucapa Diamond Company Limited and its partners in the Project Lulo Joint Venture (Project Lulo), Endiama and Rosas & Petalas, are pleased to provide a progress update on the kimberlite exploration work program in Angola, which has been boosted by the addition of two new high-priority kimberlites for bulk sampling. The latest phase of discovery drilling has identified 24 new kimberlites, bringing the total number of kimberlites discovered at Project Lulo to 133. Samples from eight of the 24 recently discovered kimberlites have already been sent to South Africa for indicator mineral picking which will undergo mineral chemistry analysis in Canada. Of particular interest, are indicator minerals picked from two of the eight kimberlite samples (L056 and L403) containing numerous high-interest deep purple garnets and chrome diopsides, often associated with diamondiferous kimberlites. As a result, they have been added to the list of high-priority kimberlites for bulk sampling. The mineral chemistry results will determine if additional kimberlites are added to the priority bulk sampling list in the coming months. Construction of the Kimberlite Bulk Sampling Plant (KBSP) is advanced, notwithstanding logistics challenges and commissioning is expected during July 2022. The location of the KBSP has been positioned close to the majority of the key priority kimberlites to reduce sample turnaround time and costs. New trucks have also been mobilised to assist with the ramp up of the kimberlite exploration activities. Two of the five high-priority kimberlites already bulk sampled, are diamondiferous. Out of the remaining 15 priority kimberlites to be sampled, the next six to be processed are: L403: Within the Canguige Catchment area. This target has recently been elevated due to its abundant deep purple garnets, chrome diopsides and large olivines; L029: Within the Canguige Catchment area. Excavation of this sample has been completed; L032: Within the Canguige Catchment area. One of the larger bodies proximal to the site of the alluvial sample taken in the Canguige River. Overburden on this kimberlite has been removed; L164: South (upstream) of the Canguige Catchment area. Chosen due to its high indicator mineral counts, including G4D garnets and other high interest mineral populations; L056: Confluence of Cacuilo River and Canguige River. Located upstream of Mining Block 46, where a significant number of high-value diamonds have been recovered during mining activities, including numerous +100 carat and fancy coloured gemstones. Chosen due to its deep purple garnet and chrome diopside content, key indicator minerals of diamondiferous kimberlite; and L014: Underlies the Cacuilo River, upstream of Mining Block 8. Chosen due to its high- interest G4D garnets and proximity. Mining Block 8 has been one of the most prolific high-value mining blocks, where the record 404 carat diamond and a number of other +100 carat diamonds were recovered during mining activities.

Lucapa Diamond Company Limited and Its Partners in Sociedade Mineira Do Lulo, Empresa Nacional De Diamantes E.P. and Rosas & Petalas, Provide an Updated JORC Classified Inferred Alluvial Diamond Resource for the Lulo Diamond Concession in Angola Lucapa Diamond Company Limited and its partners in Sociedade Mineira Do Lulo, Empresa Nacional de Diamantes E.P. and Rosas & Petalas, provided an updated JORC Classified Inferred Alluvial Diamond Resource for the Lulo diamond concession in Angola. The updated Lulo Diamond Resource was independently estimated and reconciled on a depletion and addition basis to 31 December 2021 by external consultants, Z Star Mineral Resource Consultants (Pty) Ltd. of Cape Town, South Africa. After accounting for mining depletion of 24,595 carats during 2021 calendar year, the alluvial exploration activities undertaken during the year increased the Lulo Diamond Resource in-situ carats by 11% to ~151,000 carats. Notwithstanding the increase in mining capacities over the last seven years by SML, this is the 4th consecutive year in which the resource carats have increased. Diamond valuations have been significantly affected by the steep recovery in the diamond market during 2021 and early 2022. The modelled diamond value model has been escalated using a global rough diamond price index provided by GTD Consultants, an independent diamond valuation consultancy, up to 31st December 2021. Since 2020, the modelled diamond values have increased by ~34% from USD 1,440/carat to USD 1,930/carat on average. To date, ~137,000 carats of diamonds have been recovered on the Lulo concession and sold by SML for ~USD 276 million, at an average price of ~USD 2,000/carat. The total diluted volume of gravel available for mining in the updated Lulo Diamond Resource increased to 2.2Mm3. This equates to a minimum of four years of resource at SML's expanded mining and processing capacities. Reported Earnings • Mar 01

Lucapa Diamond Company Limited Announces Recovery of the 24th +100 Carat Diamond by Sociedade Mineira Do Lulo from the Lulo Alluvial Diamond Mine in Angola Lucapa Diamond Company Limited and its partners Empresa Nacional de Diamantes E.P. ("Endiama") and Rosas & Petalas announced the recovery of the 24th +100 carat diamond by Sociedade Mineira Do Lulo ("SML") from the Lulo alluvial diamond mine in Angola. The 138 carat diamond was recovered from Mining Block 46 ("MB46"), is the seventh +100 carat diamond recovered in 2021 so far and 24th +100 carat stone recovered at Lulo since exploration and mining operations began. LUCAPA: Lucapa is a niche diamond producer with high-value mines in Angola (Lulo) and Lesotho (Mothae). The 0.5 million bulk cubic metre per annum Lulo alluvial mine and 1.6 million tonnes per annum ("Mtpa") Mothae kimberlite mine both produce large and high-value diamonds, with >75% of revenues generated from the recovery of +4.8 carat stones. The Lulo mine has been mining commercially since 2015 and has produced over twenty +100 carat diamonds to date, including a 404 carat D-colour Type IIa stone, and is one of the highest average dollar per carat alluvial diamond producers in the world. Lucapa and its Project Lulo JV partners have also achieved highly encouraging results from their search to discover the primary hard-rock source of the high-value Lulo alluvial diamonds. The Mothae mine in diamond-rich Lesotho commenced commercial mining in 2019 and has produced five +100 carat diamonds to date, including a 213 carat D-colour Type IIa stone. Lucapa has funded a ~45% expansion in the processing capacity of the Mothae mine, which when ramped up in early second quarter of 2021 will see capacity grow from 1.1 Mtpa to 1.6 Mtpa. Lucapa's Board, management team and strategic investors have decades of diamond industry experience across the globe and right through the diamond pipeline, particularly in extracting value from large and high-quality diamonds.
