Introduction of Employee Benefit Trust Scheme

80 Mile PLC ('80 Mile' or the 'Company'), the AIM, FSE, and OTC listed
exploration and development Company, announces that the Company has
established an Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT") scheme for use as an incentive
plan for its current and future directors and employees. The EBT will
facilitate the award of shares to incentivise long-term commitment, without
immediate tax implications.

The Company intends to allocate up to 10% of its issued ordinary share
capital, funded by Company contributions or the issuance of new ordinary
shares of the Company. The shares will be held in the EBT, and released upon
meeting vesting and performance conditions linked to milestones. All executive
directors and employees of 80 Mile are eligible.

 

The EBT has been established in order to:

 

·      Align the interests of directors and employees with shareholders.

·      Incentivise long-term value creation through exploration and
development success.

·      Retain and motivate key talent in a competitive industry.

·      Ensure compliance with AIM regulations and good corporate
governance.

About 80 Mile Plc:

80 Mile Plc, listed on the London AIM market, Frankfurt Stock Exchange, and
the U.S. OTC Market under the ticker BLLYF, is an exploration and development
company focused on high-grade critical metals in Tier 1 jurisdictions. With
multiple projects in Greenland, as well as a developing industrial gas and
biofuels business in Italy, 80 Mile offers both portfolio and commodity
diversification focused on base metals, precious metals, and industrial gas
while expanding into sustainable fuels and clean energy solutions in Tier 1
jurisdictions. 80 Mile's strategy is centred on advancing key projects while
creating value through partnerships and strategic acquisitions.

80 Mile's recent acquisition of White Flame Energy and the Jameson licenses
expands its portfolio into the energy and gas sector, adding large-scale
licenses for industrial gas, natural gas, and liquids in East Greenland.
Approved by shareholders in July 2024, this acquisition diversifies the
Company's assets and aligns with its strategy to contribute to sustainable
energy solutions, while also exploring conventional energy resources.

The Disko-Nuussuaq nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE project in Greenland is a primary
focus for 80 Mile, 100% owned by 80 Mile PLC. Seven priority targets
exhibiting spatial characteristics indicative of potential deposits on a scale
comparable to renowned mining operations such as Norilsk, Voisey's Bay, and
Jinchuan, will be advanced by the Company.

The Dundas Ilmenite Project, 80 Mile's most advanced asset in northwest
Greenland, is fully with a JORC-compliant Mineral Resource of 117 Mt at 6.1%
ilmenite and an offshore Exploration Target of up to 530 Mt. Dundas is poised
to become a major supplier of high-quality ilmenite. Recent discoveries of
hard rock titanium mineralization, with bedrock samples showing nearly double
the ilmenite content of previous estimates, further enhance the project's
world-class potential. 80 Mile owns 100% of the Dundas Ilmenite Project under
its subsidiary Dundas Titanium A/S in Greenland.

In June 2025, 80 Mile entered into a definitive agreement to divest its 100%
interest in the Kangerluarsuk zinc-lead-silver project in Greenland to Amaroq
Minerals Ltd. Under the terms of the agreement, 80 Mile will receive
US$500,000 in Amaroq Minerals shares upon completion, and US$1,500,000 in cash
or shares upon the discovery of an economic deposit, as defined by a JORC or
NI 43-101 compliant resource that supports development.
