Audit of the estimation of mineral resources is addressed as part of the annual internal audit plan
approved by the Board via the Audit Committee. In addition to routine internal audit procedures, the
Board monitors the Company’s mineral resource status and approves the final outcome of third
party reports.
An annual mineral resource update is a prescribed activity within the Company’s corporate planning
calendar that includes a schedule of regular executive engagement meetings to approve
assumptions and guide the overall process.

The mineral resource estimation processes followed internally are well established and are subject
to systematic internal and external peer review. Independent technical reviews and audits are
undertaken on an as-needs basis as a product of risk assessment.

for Addison Mining Services Limited (“AMS”), an independent Competent Person within the meaning of the
JORC (2012) code and a qualified person under the AIM guidance note for mining and oil & gas companies.
