Central Asia Metals plc (AIM: CAML) announces that its Annual Report and
Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2021 and Notice of its 2022 Annual
General Meeting is available for download from the Company's website at
www.centralasiametals.com (http://www.centralasiametals.com) .

Annual General Meeting ("AGM") 2022

 

The Company's AGM is to be held at The Geological Society, Burlington House,
Piccadilly, London, W1J 0BG at 12:00 noon on 26 May 2022.

 

Current public health guidance and legislation issued by the UK Government in
relation to the COVID-19 pandemic permits public gatherings and travel at the
date of the AGM. However, due to the continued unpredictability and potential
health risks from public gatherings because of the COVID-19 pandemic,
shareholders are encouraged to cast their votes in advance of the meeting by
appointing the Chairman of the Meeting as their proxy and to give instructions
on how they wish the Chairman of the Meeting to vote on the resolutions on
their behalf. If you wish to attend the AGM physically or appoint a person as
your proxy other than the Chairman of the Meeting, you are asked to register
your intention to attend by email to cosec@centralasiametals.com
(mailto:cosec@centralasiametals.com) on reasonable notice, to allow the
Company, if practical, to make appropriate arrangements. If you do not
register your intention to attend in this way, this could result in either you
or your proxy (if a person other than the Chairman of the Meeting) not being
permitted entry to the AGM.

 

The Board will continue to closely monitor the ongoing impact of COVID-19, and
if it becomes necessary or appropriate to change  the arrangements for the
AGM, the Company will notify shareholders before the AGM via its website at
www.centralasiametals.com (http://www.centralasiametals.com/) and, where
appropriate, through the release of an announcement to a Regulatory
Information Service.

 

The Board recognises that the AGM is an important event for shareholders in
the corporate calendar and is committed to ensuring that shareholders can
exercise their right to vote and ask questions in connection with this
meeting. Relevant questions from shareholders regarding the formal business of
the AGM can be raised in advance of the AGM by email to
cosec@centralasiametals.com (mailto:cosec@centralasiametals.com) and in so far
as relevant to the business of the AGM will be responded to by email and taken
into account as appropriate at the AGM itself. Voting at the AGM will be
carried out by way of a poll so that the votes cast in advance and the votes
of all shareholders appointing the Chairman of the Meeting as their proxy can
be taken into account.

 

In addition, the proceedings of this year's AGM will be broadcast via the
Investor Meet Company platform. Shareholders wishing to watch the proceedings
of the AGM may register to do so at:

 

www.investormeetcompany.com/central-asia-metals-plc/register-investor.
(http://www.investormeetcompany.com/central-asia-metals-plc/register-investor)

 

Please note the broadcast of the AGM will not be interactive and shareholders
watching the meeting on this will not be able to participate in the
proceedings of the meeting (please also see below regarding the subsequent
management presentation). Accordingly, shareholders intending to view the AGM
via the Investor Meet Company platform are strongly advised to submit proxy
votes, and to submit any questions in connection with the AGM itself (by email
to cosec@centralasiametals.com), in advance of the meeting as set out above.

 

Immediately following the formal proceedings of the AGM, a management
presentation on the Group and its business will also be broadcast via the
Investor Meet Company Platform. Questions which shareholders and others would
like considered in connection with this presentation can be submitted through
the Investor Meet Company platform either before or during the presentation.

 

Investors who already follow Central Asia Metals plc on the Investor Meet
Company platform should automatically receive an invitation via the platform.

 

As usual, the results of the AGM will be announced as soon as practical after
it has taken place. Shareholders are also welcome to contact our Director of
Corporate Relations, Louise Wrathall, who will endeavour to answer general
questions not related to the AGM, by email at

therefore strongly encouraged to:

1.      Submit their votes as soon as possible in advance of the meeting
and, in any case, by 12 noon on 24 May 2022 through the proxy and electronic
