TANNENBERG COPPER PROJECT (GERMANY)

During the quarter, the Company announced that following a rigorous selection
process, it has been selected as one of eight exploration companies to
participate in BHP's 2025 Xplor program in relation to Tannenberg.

The Xplor program was established in 2023 to support promising minerals
explorers to accelerate the exploration needed to support the energy
transition. Over a six-month program period, BHP Xplor targets development of
technical, business and operational excellence within participating companies.

As a 2025 BHP Xplor cohort company, GreenX will receive a one-off,
non-dilutive grant of up to US$500,000, and in-kind services, mentorship, and
networking opportunities with BHP and other industry experts and investors.

It is expected GreenX's participation in Xplor will expedite the build-out of
geological concepts and the exploration timeframe at Tannenberg. GreenX
intends to use the grant to conduct geophysics programs over the Tannenberg
licence area.

GREENLAND PROJECTS

Eleonore North Project

During the quarter, GreenX announced that high grade antimony mineralisation
had been identified at its Eleonore North project in Greenland, based on
historical results recently released by the Geological Survey of Denmark and
Greenland (GEUS). The historical results indicate the potential for a
high-grade antimony-gold mineral system at ELN. Antimony prices have been on a
rapid uptrend since China announced antimony export controls from 15 September
2024, with antimony prices in the US having rocketed to over US$40,000/t from
US$18,300/t(2).

Figure 2: Newly released GEUS assay results show evidence for high-grade
antimony and gold mineralisation above the interpreted Noa Pluton.

Previously reported historical data confirmed the presence of gold and
high-grade antimony in outcropping veins at ELN including:

 ·      14m long chip sample grading 7.2% Sb and 0.53g/t Au(3)
 ·      40 m chip line with a length weighed average of 0.78g/t Au(3)

Significantly, GEUS geologist's identified stibnite (Sb(2)S(3)) as the
antimony mineral. Stibnite is well-understood and the predominant ore mineral
for commercial antimony production.

Antimony is designated a Critical Raw Material by both the EU and the US, with
China being the world's major antimony ore producer and major exporter of
refined antimony oxides and metallic antimony.

Global strategic interest in antimony has significantly increased in 2024 due
to several factors:

 ·      China controls ~50% of global antimony mining, most downstream
 processing and 32% of global resources according to the Lowy Institute.
 ·      China's recent export ban on antimony, effective from 15
 September 2024, has caused market disruption(4).
 ·      Antimony is a crucial material in the defence supply chain, used
 in various military applications including ammunition, flame retardants, and
 smart weaponry.
 ·      Antimony is essential in renewable energy technologies including
 more-energy-efficient solar panel glass and in preventing thermal runaway in
 batteries.

The antimony market is expected to grow by 65% between 2024 and 2032(5).
However, the supply side, declining antimony grades and depleting resources
for existing mines are becoming increasingly relevant.

To aid the Company's exploration targeting and fieldwork planning for ELN,
GreenX's technical team intend to locate, analyse, and study further
historical samples and data within GEUS's archives.

ANTIMONY RESULTS FROM NEWLY PUBLISHED GEOLOGICAL SURVEY ARCHIVE MATERIAL

GEUS's archives host an extensive collection of rock samples (with and without
assays), maps, as well as government and company reports going back many
decades. A sub-set of the archive material is available in digital format.
GEUS is continuously digitising and publishing its archive material. The newly
released data covers 2008 field work at the Noa Dal valley within the
Company's ELN project. Government geologists collected mineralised samples
from outcropping veins and scree near to the interpreted Noa Pluton. Selected
highlights are presented in Table 1 below.

 Table 1: Selected antimony and gold results from 2008 GEUS fieldwork
 Sample #  Sb (%)  Au (g/t)  Field description
 469506    23.40   0.00      Quartz vein with stibnite. Sample from boulder or scree

 496910    0.04    2.20      Intense clay alteration

These newly released results conform with previously released historical
results from the Noa Dal area (previously reported in ASX announcement dated
10 July 2023).

GEOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF ANTIMONY

GreenX is targeting Reduced Intrusion-related Gold Systems (RIRGS) at ELN. The
hypothesised blind-to-the-surface Noa Pluton forms the basis for the RIRGS
exploration model. Antimony-gold veins at surface were considered to be
supporting evidence for RIRGS at ELN. With the favourable shift in the
antimony market, the outcropping veins have become a potentially viable and
attractive target.

The antimony-gold mineralisation at ELN could be analogous to Perpetua
Resources' Stibnite Gold Project in Idaho, USA. There, RIRGS and orogenic gold
mineralisation styles overprint each other. Prior to the RIRGS model at ELN,
the gold-bearing veins at Noa Dal were thought to be of orogenic origin. It is
relatively common in gold deposits which are proximal to intrusions to feature
characteristics of RIRGS and orogenic gold mineralisation styles.

 The scale and potential of the antimony-gold veins will be evaluated with a
follow-up investigation in the next phase of fieldwork.

GEUS is in the process of releasing results from regional mapping and sampling
surveys from field seasons in 2022 and 2023 across East Greenland. GreenX
plans to use the soon-to-be-released data as part of ongoing evaluation of the
antimony and gold potential at ELN and the region.

 Given recent developments in the antimony market, GreenX's exploration
strategy at the ELN project in East Greenland will continue with a renewed
focus on the known Sb-Au mineral systems at the Noa pluton.

GreenX has been able to access further historical data for ELN with a review
currently underway. Following completion of this review further updates will
be made, expected in the coming weeks.

Arctic Rift Copper Project

The Arctic Rift Copper Project (ARC) in Greenland is an exploration joint
venture between GreenX and Greenfields Pty Ltd (Greenfields). GreenX can
earn-in up to 80% in ARC with the Company currently owning a 51% interest in
the project. The project is targeting large scale copper in multiple settings
across a 5,774 km(2) Special Exploration Licence in eastern North Greenland.
The area has been historically underexplored yet is prospective for copper,
forming part of the newly identified Kiffaanngissuseq metallogenic province.

The results of work program announced previously have demonstrated the
high-grade nature of the known copper sulphide mineralisation and wider copper
mineralization in fault hosted Black Earth zones and adjacent sandstone units.
The exact position of a native copper fissure at the Neergaard Dal prospect
was also identified.

The Company is in the process of analysing further remote-sensing options for
ARC, which  would be used to enhance current understanding of the known
copper sulphide mineralisation and refine plans for the next exploration
program.

SUCCESSFUL ARBITRATION OUTCOME IN DISPUTE WITH POLISH GOVERNMENT

In October 2024, GreenX reported a successful outcome of the international
arbitration claims (Claim) against Republic of Poland (Poland or Respondent)
under both the BIT and the ECT (together the Treaties).

The Company was awarded:

·      approximately £252m (A$490m / PLN1.3bn) in compensation by the
Tribunal under the BIT (BIT Award) which includes interest compounded at SONIA
plus one percentage point (+1%) compounded annually from 31 December 2019 to
the date of the award (7 October 2024).

·      approximately £183m (A$355m / PLN 941m) in compensation by the
Tribunal under the ECT (ECT Award), which includes interest compounded at the
SONIA overnight rate +1% compounded annually from 31 December 2019. Interest
will continue to accrue at SONIA +1% compounded annually until full and final
payment by the Respondent.

·      Additional Interest of approximately £4 million (A$8 million /
PLN 20 million) has accrued since the award to end of January 2025 and will
continue to compound annually until full and final payment by the Respondent.

·      Interest income of ~£14 million (A$28 million / PLN 70 million)
per annum is currently accruing to GreenX. However, interest expense of only
~£2.7 million (A$5.3 million / PLN 13.5 million) per annum is accruing on the
US$11.3 million of litigation funding utilised.

·      Both Awards are subject to any payments made by the Respondent to
the Claimant in the other arbitration such that the Claimant is not entitled
to double compensation i.e., any amount paid by Poland in one arbitration
(i.e., ECT) is set off against Poland's liability in the other arbitration
(i.e., BIT).

The compensation is denominated in British pound sterling. No hedging is in
place for the compensation and accordingly is subject to fluctuations in
foreign currency.

During the quarter, the Polish Prime Minister, Mr Donald Tusk, stated in a
press conference that:

"The case is rather hopeless, because a lost arbitration is a lost
arbitration. We have two big cases on our shoulders. The PiS government blew
this issue.

The Australians, as you know, were promised that their mine would be built
there. For years they were misled and later the commitment was withdrawn. It
was quite obvious that they would go to arbitration, and it was rather obvious
that they would win this arbitration.

Speaking frankly, I would most likely, and I cannot exclude that it will go
this way, to find the person directly responsible for Poland now having to pay
well over a billion zloty if we do not find a legal solution - which I think
has very little probability to set aside the award in this arbitration. So,
speaking the truth, I will expect my officers to inform the public in the
coming days who made a decision or refrained from making a decision with the
consequence of these gigantic losses, that is the compensation that we as the
Polish State must pay to the Australians." (1)

Since the award was made, Poland has lodged a request to set-aside the award
with the courts of England and Wales in relation to the BIT Award and the
courts of Singapore in relation to the ECT Award. Poland is challenging
jurisdictional aspects of both awards and alleging procedural unfairness,
including in the Tribunal's decision on damages.

The threshold to succeed on a set-aside motion in either the English or
Singapore courts is very high, with the courts rejecting set-aside
applications in the vast majority of cases.

It is important to note that a "set-aside" motion is different from a general
"appeal" since a set-aside motion can in general only relate to a lack of
jurisdiction on the part of the Tribunal or procedural unfairness. Under both
set-aside motions, the actual merits of the Claim cannot be revisited by the
courts.

The Company is strongly defending the set-aside motions and will update the
market, if required, in line with its continuous disclosure requirements.

All of GreenX's costs associated with the Claim were funded on a limited basis
from Litigation Capital Management (LCM). To date, GreenX has drawn down
US$11.3 million from LCM. Once the award compensation is received from Poland,
LCM will be entitled to be paid back the US$11.3 million, a multiple of five
times of the US$11.3 million and from 1 January 2025, interest on the US$11.3
million at a rate of 30% per annum, compounding monthly (which equates to
interest of approximately US$3.4 million (£2.7 million / A$5.3 million / PLN
13.5 million) per annum).

Further information on the Claim and awards can be found in the Company's
announcements dated 8 October 2024, 17 October 2024, 11 November 2024 and 22
January 2025.

 

CORPORATE

At 31 December 2024, GreenX had a cash balance of A$5 million and an
additional US$0.5 million for exploration activities dedicated for Tannenberg
from the BHP Xplor program.
