Chair’s Address: 2026 Annual General Meeting

And just in the last week or so Gareth Solly joined us as CEO as part of our
planned succession plan. Gareth’s most recent experience includes taking Black
Cat from a $6 million IPO to production and processing of approximately
100,000oz per year. I think I can confidently say that Auric’s appeal to Gareth is
that it offers similar potential.
That brings me to our current senior management team. As founding MD Mark
English has done a remarkable job in getting the company to where it is now
with such a terrific launching pad for the future. Mark will transition out of the
MD’s role by the end of the year but remain with us as Finance and Executive
Director beyond that date and we will benefit greatly from his ongoing expertise.
Our Technical Director, John Utley, has proven his skill in how the both the
Jeffreys Find and Munda Deposits have performed for us too. John will continue
to lead the development of Munda as we head towards commencing production
from the main pit towards the middle of next year.
I would also like to thank all our team for their efforts once again this year. Auric
has a small but highly efficient team working hard at growing the company.
In the near future we will also be looking to add necessary skills to the Board to
reflect our transition to an integrated mining house, bringing in quality people
who have the incentive to achieve the greatest returns for shareholders and all
of our interests are totally aligned in that aim.
Thank you to for your continued support again this year. We look forward to
another terrific year for Auric Mining.
Steven Morris
Non-Executive Chair
Good morning and welcome to the Auric Mining AGM
for 2026. My name is Steven Morris and as Chairman of
Auric I welcome you all after what has been a fantastic
year in our evolution as a company.
2025 was the year that saw us take the steps necessary
for significant transformation from explorer and small
producer to, as we refer to ourselves now, Australia’s
next integrated mining house.
The success of the Jeffreys Find project, combined with the surge in the gold price
throughout the year, allowed us to expand our plans and thoughts as to what is
possible for us as a company. Preparation and then production from Munda through
the starter pit showed that the constraint in availability of mills in the Kalgoorlie area is
going to be a real issue for producers well into the future. So, when the Burbanks Mill
became available we were quick to act on it and secure what could be our most
significant asset going forward.
As we all know Munda has so far proven to be everything, we hoped it would be for
us, throwing out significant profits from the starter pit and allowing us to remodel the
main pit as a result. And this is where Burbanks becomes key. Rebuilding the mill
allowing us to process our own ore is a game changer in so many ways. Controlling
every part of the production cycle and maximising profits as a result is what will bring
shareholders the greatest returns on their investment.
As you would know we have recently made two significant personnel appointments
aligned with our future plans. In April Scott Bailey joined us as Processing Lead and
his role is basically to build and then operate the mill. Scott’s experience especially at
the Lakewood and Paulsen’s Mills and his reputation in the industry made him, we
believe, the perfect appointment.

Good morning and welcome to our Annual General Meeting.
The 2025 year was transformational for Auric. The best performance of the Company since inception. We delivered strong
operational, mining and financial performance, and importantly, laid the foundations for the Company’s next phase of growth. This
performance reflects our disciplined strategy of advancing quality gold assets into production, all within the premium jurisdiction of
Kalgoorlie. For a small company we generated excellent financial results as below.
We are all aware of how an exciting time it is for a gold-focused Company. We believe that Auric is a top performer for our cohort. From a $6 million IPO just five years
ago, today we are cashed up, in an excellent financial position and have developed quality mining assets. As of 31 March 2026, we are sitting on $46M in cash from
the most recent milling campaign from our Munda Starter Pit. We have also progressed and substantially developed our technical and operational skills and knowledge
through mining Munda in our own right.
Auric’s inaugural joint venture in mining of Jeffreys Find was finalized in the 2025 calendar year. Our investment in the Jeffreys Find Gold Mine has been a standout
success, banking $16.5M cash from our initial cash investment of approximately $1.2M.
The outcome from Jeffreys Find highlights the strength of our project selection and execution. I would like to acknowledge BML Ventures Pty Ltd and all their team for
their excellent partnership and contribution to this result.
Operationally, Munda Gold Mine continues to perform as Auric’s flagship asset. During 2025 and up to 31 March 2026, the Starter Pit produced 8,886 ounces of gold
after processing and recoveries, generating robust cash flow at excellent gold prices.
The Starter Pit outperformed, producing 46% above budget. Munda is expected to generate another long-term payday for the Company when it comes into full
production by early 2028.

Managing Director’s Address: 2026 Annual General Meeting
The acquisition of the Burbanks Gold Processing Plant represents a significant strategic milestone for Auric. The reconfigured plant will position the Company to control
ore processing, marking an important step in the transition towards our ambition of becoming a fully integrated gold producer.
Over the past 12 months, Auric has also grown significantly as an organisation. Our team expanded from 6 employees to approximately 25 during full production of the
Starter Pit. We are progressively building our internal capabilities as we transition to full management of integrated mining and processing.
As part of this build-out, we are delighted to welcome on board, Gareth Solly, who joins Auric from Black Cat Syndicate Ltd as our Chief Executive Officer and Executive
Director. Gareth will work alongside me in a formal transition period until he will succeed me as Managing Director on or before 1 December this year. I will continue as
Executive and Finance Director.
Bringing proven technical, operational and capital markets experience, Gareth took Black Cat from an approximately $6million exploration IPO into a 100,000-ounce,
multi-asset producer with a 2.5Moz resource base.
Gareth is an excellent fit for Auric, directly aligning with our strategy of bringing Munda and Burbanks into combined production and substantially expanding our resource
base and growing the Company.
Separately, Scott Bailey has been appointed Processing Manager to spearhead the rebuild and recommissioning of the Burbanks Plant, and along with our existing
personnel, places Auric in a strong position to achieve our ambition of becoming WA’s next fully integrated mining house.
We also continue to benefit from strong foundation partnerships, including our Native Title Agreement with the Ngadju Native Title Aboriginal Corporation, providing long-
term certainty across our tenements. We have commenced discussions with the Marlinyu Ghoorlie Native Title group in relation to our heritage obligations with them. We
are grateful for their ongoing support and collaboration.
We are proud to say Auric is a genuine gold producer with a growing portfolio of assets, processing capability in development, a strong balance sheet, and a clear
pathway to becoming a fully integrated gold company. We have entered 2026 with strong momentum and a solid platform to accelerate growth.
In closing I would like to thank our Board, all our team, our partners and all shareholders for your continued support. We look forward with great enthusiasm to delivering
even a better year for Auric in 2026.
