New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 32% 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 (32% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (AU$2.4m net loss in 3 years).

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). Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (25% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (AU$38.5m market cap, or US$25.9m). Duyuru • May 15

Sunstone Metals Ltd Announces Extremely Promising Assays from Drilling At the Large T2 Geophysical Anomaly At its El Palmar Porphyry Gold-Copper Discovery in Northern Ecuador Sunstone Metals Ltd. announced extremely promising assays from drilling at the large T2 geophysical anomaly at its El Palmar porphyry gold-copper discovery in northern Ecuador. The assays contain gold grades of up to 2m at 3.2g/t from 72m, and 13.5m at 1.1g/t from 97.5m, from the edge of the anomaly, which is 1km long x 450m wide. Furthermore, the anomaly is bound by the regionally-significant Toachi Fault zone and associated orthogonal structures a scenario strongly similar to the 3 billion-tonne SolGold Alpala copper-gold porphyry deposit, within the Cascabel project, located 65km to the north-east. Recent preliminary age dating has confirmed that the mineralised gold-copper porphyry at Sunstone's El Palmar project is the same geological age as Alpala. T2 drilling results: Target T2, located east of the El Palmar T1 porphyry system is developing as a very compelling large porphyry gold-copper target based on several independent datasets. Three drill holes have been completed and further drilling to test the target is planned to commence in late March. Surface rock chip sampling defined an area of at least 220m x 50m averaging 0.4g/t gold and 0.1% copper in a strong porphyry stockwork underlying a silica-clay altered cap. The rock chip samples were consistently mineralised and included six samples which returned assays of greater than 1 g/t gold, which is encouragingly very high for porphyry systems. The geological interpretation is that this outcrop is part of the upper zones of a large porphyry system. Soil sampling at T2 defined a significant and coherent gold-copper-molybdenum anomaly coincident with an extensive alteration cap. Geophysical surveying defined a conductive body coincident with the surface metal anomalism and recent drilling results. This conductive body plunges, expands and intensifies southward for a further 800m where it abuts the regional Toachi Fault zone. The structural scenario at T2 is very significant and can be compared to the nearby Alpala copper-gold porphyry deposit at the SolGold Cascabel Project. Geological age dating from samples from El Palmar T1 have returned preliminary results that indicate these systems have a similar geological age as Alpala. The recent drilling results reinforce the concept of an upper-level porphyry/epithermal system with significant gold mineralisation grading down to a copper-gold system with porphyry B veins in the lower parts of EPDD024. Additional porphyry targets for testing at El Palmar: Drill hole EPDD021 was drilled into the T1 target. It intersected 866.6m at 0.26g/t gold and 0.1% copper from surface, including 24m at 0.39g/t gold and 0.19% copper from 45.5m, and 11.25m at 0.81g/t gold and 0.2% copper from 501m. This result confirms the significant vertical extent of mineralisation at T1 which requires follow-up drilling. 3-D geological modelling is being undertaken at T1 based on the 21 drill holes completed to date and follow- up drilling will be planned to target mineralisation in the down plunge extent. One hole has been completed into target T5 (EPDD025, with assay results expected in late March). One hole is planned to be drilled into porphyry target T4 in Second Quarter 2023. Tituana Epithermal Gold Targets preliminary results: Several epithermal gold targets have also been defined within the El Palmar concession, with the highest priority being the Tituana target. Three drill holes have now been completed and assay results are expected in late March. Holes 1 and 3 have intersected an epithermal system with mineralisation. The Tituana target is located on a NNE-trending structure, which may link to the south to the main El Palmar porphyry system a common scenario in porphyry and epithermal systems. The target exhibits coincident zinc and arsenic anomalies in soil sampling. Trenching has returned results of up to 6.7g/t gold. Rock chip sampling has yielded a >85m-long (and open) zone from which 101 surface samples averaged 1.2 g/t Au, 25 g/t Ag and 0.16% Cu, with peak values for these elements being 6.47 g/t Au, 225g/t Ag and 0.78% Cu.

Sunstone Metals Ltd Announce the Discovery from Drilling Undertaken in December 2022 of A Well Mineralised Gold-Copper Porphyry System At the Limon Target Within the Bramaderos Project in Southern Ecuador Sunstone Metals Ltd. announce the discovery from drilling undertaken in December 2022 of a well mineralised gold-copper porphyry system at the Limon target within the Bramaderos project in southern Ecuador. The Limon target area is located 2.7km north-east of the Brama-Alba gold-copper deposit, which hosts a porphyry Resource of 2.7Moz AuEq. This discovery reinforces the concept of multiple gold-copper porphyry systems within the 50km2 Bramaderos concession and highlights the potential for significant growth of mineral resources at higher grades. The scale of the Limon alteration system and coherency of geochemical anomalism suggests a large and/or multiple porphyry centers within and below the 1.5 x 1km area of surface alteration. On this basis exploration at Limon is progressing on 3 fronts: Current drilling on the high sulphidation targets located in the NE portion of Limon. This is following up previous drilling that returned 15.4m at 0.10g/t gold, 0.42% copper, and 2.3g/t silver from 57.8m in LMDD004, and 128m at 0.18 g/t gold from 3.5m in LMDD006. Planning for follow-up to hole LMDD010. Modelling of magnetics are suggesting a 300m plunge to a magnetic body that is likely related to the porphyry mineralisation. The magnetic body measures 100m x 100m x 300m and is connected to a larger magnetic feature at depth. Drill hole LMDD011 has been completed and intersected an intrusive breccia and marks the underside margin of the SW plunging target zone. Preparation for deeper drilling based on geological interpretations of a significant porphyry target, and as follow up to previous drilling that included results such as; 14m at 0.10g/t gold, 0.20% copper 0.4ppm molybdenum, and 1.7g/t silver in LMDD002 from 879.6m; 40m at 0.10g/t gold, 0.12% copper, and 19.4ppm molybdenum from 863.5m in LMDD004; and 21.8m at 0.11g/t gold, 0.12% copper, and 3.8g/t silver from 700m in LMDD007. The Bramaderos project straddles the Pan American highway, and is close to available hydroelectric power, supporting the economics of potential development opportunities. Ecuador sources 88% of its power from hydroelectricity and is ideally placed to participate in the global demand for clean energy sourced metals. The project is also supported by nearby commercial airports and significant cities (Loja, population 200,000) and has strong community support. At El Palmar, drilling of the first hole on the T5 target has just been competed, and the drill rig is now being mobilised to test the Tituana epithermal prospect while we await assays from drilling at T2 and T5.
