Market Announcement

For Immediate Release

New Talisman Gold Mines Limited (NTL) is pleased to present a report on

activities for the quarter ended 31 March 2025.

Key activities include:

Processing Plant received and installation commenced.

Processing Agreement finalised

Processing site lease finalised

NTL Attends Critical Minerals Strategy Launch

Successful Private Placement

Unmarketable Parcels Disposal Completed

Further Partial Conversion of Convertible Loan Note

Processing

During the quarter NTL took delivery of the gravity processing plant with all

5 containers clearing Customs and MPI inspections late in January. NTL

has now completed assembly of the plant and pleasingly has commenced

the commissioning and testing phase in late April, in line with our previous

announcement. Concentrate and tailings of the test run will be sent for as-

say for what will be part of a continual monitoring programme of results.

NTL had planned to commence production of concentrate through the plant

in the first calendar quarter of 2025 but announced on 20th March that it

was better to defer processing by a few weeks into April, allowing us to put

more meaningful volumes into the plant, and optimise the operation of the

plant through this commissioning and testing phase.

NTL has also finalised agreements to lease the site on which the processing

plant is located and for Terra Firma Mining (TFM) to process the ore gener-

ated from the Talisman mine.

These agreements require TFM to provide all site management, operational

staff, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of the processing plant.

The arrangement also requires TFM to make best endeavours to maximise

the precious metal recovery rate, including liaising with NTL’s metallurgist

to ensure external oversight.

The Company has made arrangements to send concentrate samples to a

number of New Zealand based refiners in the first instance to assess the

best path to market for the high grade concentrate the plant will produce.

We anticipate the first test samples to be dispatched in early May.

Talisman Mine Operations

The NTL Board continues with its strategy of “timing its run” by limiting un-

derground activity until the processing plant has been through its testing

phase and is fully operational.

Operator Terra Firma are ready to commence Talisman operations as soon

as the processing plant has been fully commissioned and is operating within

optimal production levels.

Quarterly Activities Report to 31 March 2025


2

2025 is shaping as a pivotal year in New Talisman’s move to exploring producer, with the

culmination of NTL’ s Strategic Plan to Bulk Sample the Mystery vein and produce a high-

grade concentrate through the company’s own plant.

We are on track to begin Bulk Sampling in May 2025, generating revenue, valuable data to

potentially add to the mine’s JORC Resource, and form another means of egress.

NTL attended the launch of the Critical Minerals Strategy for New Zealand in Waihi in

February. The inclusion of Gold in the Critical Minerals List and the introduction of the Fast

Track option, help to provide a clear pathway for NTL to proceed to Full Mining at Talisman

– giving greater certainty to our projects and fulfilling the aims of the Critical Minerals

Strategy.

Vanuatu

Despite some expressions of interest, NTL has not been able to secure a joint venture partner

to progress this Project.

NTL’s strategy remains to be primarily focused on the Talisman Project and the Vanuatu

assets have already been fully impaired in the company’s accounts.

Thus, the Board has made the decision to relinquish its permit in Vanuatu and has advised

the Vanuatu government accordingly. NTL will now begin the process of winding down its

interests in Vanuatu.

Administration

During the quarter the Company successfully completed a private placement issuing a total of

12,435,709 ordinary shares for a total of NZ$578,000. The proceeds from the placement will

be used as working capital for the commencement of Bulk Sampling.

The Company also issued 3,150,000 ordinary shares as partial conversion of the Convertible

Loan Note for NZ$$120,690. This leaves NZ$35,324 remaining on the existing terms.

During the quarter the Company commenced the process of disposal of unmarketable Parcels.

This process was completed in April, having disposed on behalf of shareholders a total of

7,289,064 shares at an average price of 0.07288785. The share registry will make payments

to the holders of unmarketable parcels on 30 April 2025.

During the quarter the Company paid $45,000 in director fees to companies in which directors

and major shareholders have a substantial interest. The Company paid $41,000 to John

Upperton in his capacity as General Manager.
