Investor Webcast
Jubilee is pleased to announce that further to its announcement of 7.00 a.m. (London time) on 15 December
2023 (the "Placing Announcement"), that it has successfully closed the Placing.
Result of Conditional Placing
Following strong demand in the bookbuild, the total gross proceeds from the Placing has increased from the
minimum amount of approximately £10 million to £13 million (approximately US$16.6 million1) through the
placing of 236,363,636 new Ordinary Shares (the "Placing Shares") with certain institutional and other investors
at a price of 5.5 pence per share (the "Placing Price").
The Placing is not being underwritten and is conditional, inter alia, upon:
a) the passing, without amendment, of the Resolution, at the General Meeting;
b) Admission becoming effective by no later than 8.00 a.m. on 4 January 2024 (or such other time and/or
date, being no later than 8.00 a.m. on 15 February 2024, as the Joint Brokers and the Company may
agree);
c) the other conditions in the Placing Agreement being satisfied or (if applicable) waived; and
the Placing Agreement not having been terminated in accordance with its terms prior to Admission.
Use of Proceeds
The Placing is specifically targeting Jubilee's Zambian Copper operations, in order to accelerate the
implementation of our newly acquired Copper Waste Rock Project in partnership with International Resources
Holdings ("IRH"), as follows:
• Pay the initial payment of US$1.75 million, due under the agreement for the acquisition of the copper
waste rock dump announced on 12 December 2023 detailed above and progress resource and process
design (a total of c.US$4.5m).
• Expand the sulphide recovery circuits at the Company's Sable Refinery to accommodate increased
sulphide concentrate production from newly acquired projects (c.US$5.7m).
• Progress the project development phase of the Mufulira slag project, with early-stage bulk trial and
processing (c.US$2.5m).
• For general working capital purposes.

WH Ireland and Berenberg acted as joint brokers and joint bookrunners in connection with the Placing.
Leon Coetzer, Jubilee CEO, commented:
"We have received overwhelming support for this very targeted fundraise and I thank shareholders for their
strong support.
Fundamental to this support was the recognition of the potential value and scale of copper production that this
new copper Waste Rock Project affords Jubilee. The additional value in accelerating the implementation of this
project over and above our current commitment to the expansion of both chrome and copper further adds to this
potential value for Jubilee.
This very targeted raise offers us the opportunity to not only bring forward the expected timelines to implement
the very exciting Copper Waste Rock project, but to potentially scale-up the projected copper production profile
of the project to far exceed our copper strategy of 25 000 tonnes per annum of copper. Importantly, under the
terms of the executed agreement with the IRH, our partnership affords us the ability to bring this project to full
fruition with no further capital requirements from Jubilee while enjoying a fully funded position."

Admission and Total Voting Rights
Subject to the resolution being passed at the General Meeting, an application will be made to the London Stock
Exchange for admission of the Placing Shares to trading on AIM. It is expected that Admission will become
effective and dealings in the Placing Shares will commence on AIM at 8.00 a.m. on or around 4 January 2024 (or
such later date as may be agreed between the Company and the Joint Brokers, but no later than 15 February
2024).
The Placing Shares will be issued fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing
Ordinary Shares.
The Placing Shares, assuming completion of the Placing, will represent approximately 7.95 per cent. of the
Enlarged Share Capital
Following Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue will be 2,974,493,617. The Company does
not hold any shares in treasury and, therefore, following Admission, the number of voting shares in issue in the
Company will be 2,974,493,617. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations
by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the
Company's share capital pursuant to the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency
Rules.
Capitalised terms used, but not otherwise defined in this announcement, shall have the meanings ascribed to
such terms in Appendix II of the Placing Announcement unless the context requires otherwise.
