Minerals Exploration Limited (ASX: MEX, NZX: MEX) is pleased to provide its activities

report for the quarter ended 31 December 2025.

Minerals Exploration Executive Director, Brett Mitchell said: “We have made significant

progress on several fronts with our NZ gold projects during the quarter, culminating in

the start of our maiden drilling program at Waitekauri.

“The rig completed 3 holes at the Scotia gold prospect and is now drilling ahead at

Jubilee which, as shown by historic production results and trenching, is a high-grade

mineralised system. Drilling has been designed to specifically target these known high-

grade zones at Jubilee.

“This drilling at Jubilee will give us a strong news pipeline over the coming months as

we receive assays and plan further rounds of exploration.”

New Zealand Gold Projects

Commencement of maiden drilling program at the Waitekauri Gold Project

During the December quarter, the Company commenced its maiden drilling program at

its flagship Waitekauri Gold Project in New Zealand. The drilling program is being

operated by New Zealand-based drilling contractor, EcoDrilling, and is planned for

~3,000m of diamond drilling for an estimated 16 holes to test several priority epithermal

gold targets at the historic Jubilee goldmine, and other priority gold prospects including

Scotia.

Scotia South and Scotia Main Prospect Drilling Completed


Figure 1: Drilling the first hole at Scotia South, Waitekauri Gold Project

The first diamond drill hole of the Company’s maiden program was completed at the

Scotia South gold prospect at Waitekauri, targeting a previously untested structure with

abundant epithermal quartz on surface at Scotia South (TGW001) (Figure 3). The

diamond drilling at Scotia South progressed well to beyond its planned depth to a total

depth of 221.1m, averaging approximately 12m per shift/day (in line with pre-drill

expectations of 10-15m/day).

TGW001 was completed, logged and sampled and sent for assay at the SGS laboratory

in Waihi, with the rig then moved to drill TGW002 (Figure 3) at the Scotia gold prospect

to drill test the depth extensions of the known mineralised zones beneath the historic

gold workings. TGW002 was drilled to 106m but due to porous quartz in the main target

zone, significant water ingress led to a loss of quality core recovery in the main target

zone. As a result, second hole TGW002A was drilled at the main Scotia prospect and

was successfully completed to a planned target depth of 191.2m with good core

recovery. The holes were logged and core samples sent for assay at SGS Waihi, with

results for the first three Scotia holes expected within the next 1-2 weeks.

Maiden Jubilee drilling program commenced

Following the completion of drilling at Scotia, in January the EcoDrill diamond rig was

moved to the historical Jubilee mine which has started the first Jubilee hole drilling in

late January and is now drilling ahead towards its planned target depth of approximately

120m.

The Jubilee Gold Project is a historical mine located in the middle of the Company’s

Waitekauri project tenement, which represents the Company’s priority drilling prospect

at Waitekauri. Jubilee is directly south-west of the historical Golden Cross mine and

northeast of the Karangahake mine, in the centre of the NE-SW structural trend that

also hosts the +2.2Moz Au (at 14.3g/t Au)

6

deposit at WKP, developed by OceanaGold

Corporation (OceanaGold).

The historical Jubilee Gold Mine produced approximately 29koz Au+Ag bullion @ 48g/t

Au+Ag

7

, and the focus of the drilling program is to define depth and strike extensions

of the known ore body from the historical producing ore zones.

The priority drill targets at Jubilee were generated by the Company’s technical team

from historical mining reports, large drill database, historical high grade underground

trenching results and interpretations of surface observations (Figure 3).

The Company is targeting bonanza-style gold-silver low sulphidation veins, with the aim

of identifying a multi-million-ounce resource. The 2019 definition

of high-grade zones

at OceanaGold’s WKP deposit, which hosts 2.2Moz Au @ 14.3g/t Au and 3.1Moz Ag

9

, along

this northeastern trend supports the Company’s view that the area is highly prospective

for gold.

The Company will update the market on all material developments during the Scotia

and Jubilee drilling programs and with assay results as they are received, analysed and

independently verified by the Company throughout the program.

Historical High-Grade Jubilee Gold Mine Channel Sampling Results

Historical underground channel samples taken by Cyprus Minerals NZ from the Jubilee

historical goldmine returned highly promising assays which, when combined with the

favourable geological setting and the multi-million-ounce projects nearby,

demonstrates the material significance of Waitekauri’s potential.

The upside is further highlighted by high grade assays returned from underground trench

sampling by Cyprus Gold in 1991. It can be noted that most of the chip data can be

verified against the historical plans. The providence of the data beyond this is not

available and some chip lines were presumably sourced from additional plans (1991

Harley, McConnochie Cyprus Minerals NZ – Jubilee Prospect, Waitekauri Project PL 31-

1777 – NZPAM).

Waitekauri Gold Project Overview

The Waitekauri Gold Project covers 58km

2

in the Hauraki goldfield and is located 8km

west of OceanaGold Corporation’s Waihi gold mine. The Waitekauri project area displays

the hallmarks of a major goldfield in a region with a compelling mineral resource

endowment, located in the middle of the northeast/southwest structural trend that

hosts numerous multi-million ounce deposits including OceanaGold’s WKP,

Karangahake and Golden Cross deposits.

The Waitekauri Gold Project is within an 18km long mineralised corridor hosting multiple

targets and historical workings and holds three high priority prospects for gold

exploration based on their historical gold production profile: Jubilee, Scotia and

Sovereign.


Figure 5: Gold prospects occur in a defined NE-SW structural trend which extends from

Hauraki Goldfield – Gold Rich Mineralised Province

Hauraki is a world-class goldfield located in the Waikato region of New Zealand, with a

global reputation for hosting high grade silver and gold deposits. It has been home to

more than 50 epithermal mines since the 1860s, producing +15Moz of gold and 60Moz

of silver.

The region shares many key characteristics with Kalgoorlie, being home to extensive

mineralised systems and many exploration and mining projects since 1862. The region

also offers access to well-established infrastructure and a skilled workforce. Mining is

the driving force of the local economy and is at the centre of the social fabric.

Material new rock chip results – Scotia, Waitekauri and Golden Progress, Oturehua

During the December quarter, the Company reported new rock chip sampling results

from its Waitekauri and Oturehua gold projects.

Recent sampling at the Scotia prospect at the Waitekauri Gold Project confirmed the

presence of further high-grade gold mineralisation at surface in an area previously

untested by the Company.

Scotia Central sample no. 387078 (11g/t Au) was collected from an approximately 50cm

float fragment of banded epithermal quartz. Sample no. 387105 (0.94g/t Au) was taken

from an oxidized volcanic breccia outcrop, while sample no. 387108 (9.72g/t Au) was

collected from a NE-SW trending boulder trail that may represent a new mineralised

structure in the northern part of the Scotia prospect.

mineralsexploration.com.au


At the brownfields Oturehua gold project located in the Otago Goldfields on the South

Island, new rock chip samples returned outstanding results of up to 12.1g/t Au around

the historic Golden Progress Gold Mine (Table 1). Sampling supports the hypothesis that

sulphide-rich ore, although high grade, was metallurgically too complex for historical

processing methods. Historical miners reportedly focused only on high-grade

supergene-enriched portions of the veins where gold could be easily recovered using

simple gravity methods.

Furthermore, lower-grade samples no. 387087 and 387089 consist of brecciated and

pyritized schist rather than mineralised quartz vein material. These results

may indicate the presence of a lower-grade mineralised halo within the altered host

rock surrounding the veins.

Prospecting permit granted for Invincible Gold Project, Otago Goldfields

In December 2025, the Prospecting Permit was granted for the Invincible Gold Project,

located in the Otago Goldfields on New Zealand’s South Island.

The Invincible Gold Project shares key geological features with OceanaGold’s world-

class Macraes gold mine 170km to the southeast, Santana Minerals’ 2.2Moz Bendigo-

Ophir deposit 65km to the east, and multiple other gold occurrences in the Otago

Goldfields. The Company’s technical team believe there is a potential for the historic

Invincible gold mine to be hosted in the same structural settings as the Macraes and

Bendigo-Ophir projects, both of which are of a bulk tonnage nature with discrete high-

grade gold and tungsten zones.

The 164.3km

2

Invincible Prospecting Permit hosts historic workings from the late 1800s

and historical production from the gold-rich veins had an average grade of ~30g/t Au.

Despite its prospectivity the area has not been exposed to any modern exploration.

The Invincible Project is considered prospective for orogenic gold and tungsten

mineralisation, both of which are on New Zealand’s critical minerals list.

US East Canyon Uranium Vanadium Project

No new exploration activities were undertaken during the quarter. The Company

renewed the Annual lease and BLM fees for the East Canyon Uranium project during the

previous quarter to keep the project and its tenements in good standing for a further

12-month period.

The 100% owned East Canyon uranium-vanadium project comprises 231 contiguous

claims (~4,620 acres/18.7km

2

) prospective for uranium and vanadium in the Dry

Valley/East Canyon mining district of south-eastern Utah, USA.

South Australian Uranium Projects

No new exploration activities were undertaken during the quarter at the Frome Downs

or Yankaninna Projects.

Corporate Overview

The Company held cash reserves of $4.5m as at 31 December 2025.

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 5.3.2, the Company advises that no mining

development or production activities were conducted during the quarter.

NZX Listing

The Company successfully completed its secondary listing on the NZX Main Board

Market operated by NZX Limited (NZX) and commenced trading on the NZX on 16

October 2025. The Company originally traded under the NZX code UVA until the

Company changed code to MEX following the change of Company name on 3 December

2025 (see further detail below).

The dual listing will help increase the appeal of the Company’s shares to NZ’s extensive

equity investment sector by making its securities easily accessible on their home

exchange.

The will in turn give the Company exposure to NZ’s large pool of investment capital,

including a substantial institutional investment base and an extensive retail investment

network.

The listing will enable New Zealand shareholders to have a live market to trade in the

Company’s shares in their own time zone, with their shares registered in their own

Common Shareholder Number (CSN), or through a local stockbroker or investment

platform.

The Company believes that the combination of the NZ listing and the fact that its gold

exploration assets are located in NZ will help enable the Company to establish a

significant shareholder base in NZ.
