TG Metals Ltd
Chairperson's Letter
30 June 2025
Chairperson’s Letter
Dear Shareholders,
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present the Annual Report of TG Metals Limited for the financial
year ended 30 June 2025.
This year has been a pivotal one for your Company as we repositioned TG Metals to respond proactively to changing
market conditions and maximise shareholder value. While global sentiment around lithium has softened significantly,
gold has reaffirmed its place as a store of value in uncertain times. In this environment, TG Metals has acted
decisively to refocus its efforts and capitalise on opportunities with near-term potential.
While gold is now our near-term focus, the Company retains exposure to lithium through our Lake Johnston asset,
providing optionality for the future when market conditions improve.
The Board’s decision to reduce expenditure at the Lake Johnston Lithium Project has enabled us to direct resources
toward acquire the Van Uden Gold Project, which we believe represents a transformational opportunity for TG Metals.
Van Uden is a near-term production asset with significant exploration upside. Work completed to date has confirmed
high-grade mineralisation and demonstrated the potential for rapid development. Our immediate priority is to advance
the project through the necessary technical, regulatory, and financial steps, with a view to establishing a pathway to
first production. In parallel, ongoing exploration across the broader project area continues to highlight opportunities
for resource growth and new discoveries.
Gold has performed strongly over the past year, supported by macroeconomic volatility and demand from both
investors and central banks. This favourable environment, combined with the project’s location in a tier-one
jurisdiction with established infrastructure, places TG Metals in an excellent position to create value for shareholders.
As TG Metals transitions toward development, our focus on sustainability and responsible operations is paramount.
We are committed to upholding the highest standards of environmental management, safety, and community
engagement as we advance the Van Uden Gold Project. These values underpin our long-term approach to building
a company of which shareholders and stakeholders can be proud.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank our CEO David Selfe and his technical team for their professionalism
and hard work throughout the year. I also extend my appreciation to our shareholders for their ongoing support during
a period of transition.
We are excited about the opportunities ahead and remain confident that TG Metals is well placed to deliver strong
outcomes in the year to come.
Sincerely
Richard Bevan
Chairperson

TG Metals Ltd
Directors' report
30 June 2025
During the period the Company acquired the Van Uden Gold project which consists of an 80% interest in 4 granted
Mining Leases, 80% interest in 3 granted Exploration Licences and 100% interest in 2 miscellaneous Licences. The
total consideration for the acquisition was $4 million, comprising $3 million in cash (including $0.5 million deferred)
and $1 million in TG Metals shares. The main gold mineralised areas are the Van Uden Group and Gold City.
The Van Uden Gold project is located in the Forrestania Region of Western Australia, see Figure 5 below. The
project is easily accessible via Great Eastern Highway and sealed roads to the project haul roads on the
miscellaneous licences. Since acquisition the Company has added 2 exploration licences and one miscellaneous
licence application (100% TG Metals) to the project. The project is in proximity to operating and care and maintenance
gold processing Plants.
Figure 5 – Van Uden Gold Project location plan

TG Metals Ltd
Directors' report
30 June 2025
The project came with an extensive drilling database, past gold mining in the early 1990’s and late 1990’s to 2001,
mineralised stockpiles from that past mining and constructed haul roads joining the main public access sealed
road.
Since acquisition the Company has updated the mineral resource estimate (MRE) to JORC 2012 compliance,
resulting in Inferred and Indicated, 6.35 Mt @ 1.1 g/t Au for 227,140 oz. A summary table is included in Table 1.
Table 1: MRE – Van Uden Gold Deposit
The Mineral Resources statement conforms to the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral
Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC Code) 2012 Edition. All tonnages are dry metric tonnes. It has been reported
at a cut-off grade of 0.35 g/t Au by area within a A$5,000/oz Au optimised pit shell based on mining parameters
and operating costs typical for Australian open pit extraction deposits of a similar scale and geology. Minor
discrepancies may occur due to rounding of appropriate significant figures.
The resources comply with the Reasonable Prospects for Eventual Economic Extraction (RPEEE), a key principle
in mineral resource reporting that requires the qualified person to demonstrate that a mineral deposit has the
potential to be economically extracted in the future.
The mineralised stockpiles are not included in the MRE. Subsequent to the end of the period the stockpiles were
drilled and assayed with results reported on the 30 July 2025 and 21 August 2025. Figure 6 below shows an aerial
view of the historical Tasman open pit and two stockpiles nearby.
Figure 6 – Tasman Stockpiles and location proximity to Tasman Pit

TG Metals Ltd
Directors' report
30 June 2025
Subsequent to the end of the period the Company obtained statutory approvals to transport the stockpiles offsite and
the Company is in discussions with the operators of third party treatment facilities for processing of these stockpiles.
The Company also identified opportunities for low strip ratio, at or near surface material within the currently defined
resource at the historic laterite pit and at the bottom of the historic Tasman pit. All these readily accessible sources
provides the Company with flexibility for provision of a toll milling parcel.
In addition, subsequent to the end of the period, the Company defined new targets on the Van Uden Shear via an
expansive soil sampling assay program (ASX announcement 9 September 2025). The strike length of the Van Uden
gold in soil anomaly now spans 6.5Km which is an additional 4Km on the previous anomaly which defines the Van
Uden gold deposit. Figure 7 below shows the new anomaly and targets suitable for drilling.

Business Development
During the period the Company acquired the Van Uden Gold Project as detailed in the Review of Operations. In
addition, the Company applied for two (2) exploration licences E77/3272 and E77/3285 with E77/3272 subsequently
being granted. At the Lake Johnston Project a tenement rationalisation plan commenced with the withdrawal of noncore exploration licence applications E63/2315, E63/2433, E63/2488 and E63/2491. The Company applied for
tenement E63/2523 which lies adjacent to the Jaegermeister prospect.
Material Business Risk
The Company makes every effort to identify material risks and to manage these effectively. This section does not
attempt to provide an exhaustive list of risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company, nor are they in
order of significance. Actual events may be different to those described.
The Board aims to manage these risks by carefully planning its activities and implementing risk control measures.
Some of the risks are, however, highly unpredictable and the extent to which the Board can effectively manage them
is limited.
a) Tenure and Access Risk
Applications
While the Company does not anticipate there to be any issues with the grant of its Tenement applications, there can
be no assurance that the applications (or any future applications) will be granted. While the Company considers the
risk to be low, there can also be no assurance that when the relevant tenements are granted, they will be granted in
their entirety. Some of the tenement areas applied for may be excluded.
Renewal
Mining and exploration tenements are subject to periodic renewal. The renewal of the term of granted tenements is
subject to the discretion of the relevant authority. Renewal conditions may include increased expenditure and work
commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the tenements. The imposition of new conditions or the
inability to meet those conditions may adversely affect the operations, financial position and/or performance of the
Company.
Access
A number of the tenements overlap certain third party interests that may limit the Company’s ability to conduct
exploration and mining activities, including Crown Reserves, areas on which native title is yet to be determined and
other forms of tenure for access roads, pipelines and similar third party interests.
Where the Project overlaps other tenure land, exploration and mining activity on the Project may require authorisation
or consent from the owners of that land. The Company is not required to enter into land access agreements to
undertake its proposed exploration program on the Tenements. However, the Company intends to carry out heritage
clearance surveys before implementing its proposed ground disturbing exploration programs. The Company’s current
proposed exploration programs are not impacted by the known sites of registered aboriginal heritage significance.
The Group manages tenure and access risk by maintaining strict compliance with all legislative and regulatory
requirements attached to its licences, actively monitoring renewal deadlines, and ensuring all statutory reporting and
expenditure obligations are met. Due diligence is undertaken on new acquisitions to confirm title security. The Group
also engages proactively with landholders, traditional owners, regulators and communities to establish and maintain
access agreements and foster constructive relationships. Specialist legal, native title and land access advice is
sought where necessary.
b) Exploration Risk
Potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and development are high-risk undertakings. There
can be no assurance that exploration of the Project, or any other tenements that may be acquired in the future, will
result in the discovery of an economic ore deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no
guarantee that it can be economically exploited.
14
TG Metals Ltd
Directors' report
30 June 2025
The success of the Group will also depend upon the Group having access to sufficient development capital, being
able to maintain title to its projects and obtaining all required approvals for its activities. In the event that exploration
programmes prove to be unsuccessful this could lead to a diminution in the value of the Tenements, a reduction in
the cash reserves of the Group and possible relinquishment of its projects.
The Group manages this risk by applying structured exploration programs, relying on experienced geological teams,
utilising modern technology, and progressively advancing projects only when results support further investment.
c) Climate Change
The operations and activities of the Company are subject to changes to local or international compliance regulations
related to climate change mitigation efforts, specific taxation or penalties for carbon emissions or environmental
damage and other possible restraints on industry that may further impact the Company. While the Company will
endeavour to manage these risks and limit any consequential impacts, there can be no guarantee that the Company
will not be impacted by these occurrences.
Climate change may also cause certain physical and environmental risks that cannot be predicted by the Company,
including events such as increased severity of weather patterns, incidence of extreme weather events and longerterm physical risks such as shifting climate patterns. All these risks associated with climate change may significantly
change the industry in which the Company operates.
The Group manages these risks through climate scenario assessments, investment in energy-efficient technologies,
compliance with emissions and reporting requirements, and incorporating sustainability considerations into project
planning.
d) Reliance on Key Personnel
The Group’s future depends, in part, on its ability to attract and retain key personnel. It may not be able to hire and
retain such personnel at compensation levels consistent with its existing compensation and salary structure. Its future
also depends on the continued contributions of its key management and technical personnel, the loss of whose
services would be difficult to replace. In addition, the inability to continue to attract appropriately qualified personnel
could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.
Retention strategies include competitive remuneration structures, equity incentive programs and fostering a positive
workplace culture to attract and retain skilled employees.
e) Environmental
The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to Australian laws and regulations concerning
the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company’s activities are expected to
have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. It is the
Company’s intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance
with all applicable environmental laws.
The disposal of mining and process waste and mine water discharge are under constant legislative scrutiny and
regulation. There is a risk that environmental laws and regulations become more onerous making the Company’s
operations more expensive. Approvals are required for land clearing and for ground disturbing activities. Delays in
obtaining such approvals can result in the delay to anticipated exploration programmes or mining activities.
To manage these risks, the Group engages with regulators and communities, and makes appropriate provisions for
rehabilitation and closure obligations.
f) Native Title
The Native Title Act recognises and protects the rights and interests in Australia of Aboriginal and Torres Strait
Islander people in land and waters, according to their traditional laws and customs. There is significant uncertainty
associated with Native Title in Australia and this may impact on the Company's operations and future plans.
15
TG Metals Ltd
Directors' report
30 June 2025
The Group is required to enter into standard regional heritage agreements or negotiated alternative aboriginal
heritage agreements for the Grant of its Tenement applications and to undertake its proposed exploration program
on the Tenements. The Group’s current proposed exploration programs are not impacted by the known sites of
registered aboriginal heritage significance.
The Group manages this risk through early engagement with Traditional Owner groups, negotiation of access and
heritage agreements, and compliance with applicable legislation and cultural heritage requirements.
g) Economic
General economic conditions, introduction of tax reform, new legislation, movements in interest and inflation rates
and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company, as well as on its ability to fund its
operations.
To mitigate these risks, the Group undertakes prudent financial management and maintains a conservative capital
structure.
h) Additional Requirements for Capital
The Group’s capital requirements depend on numerous factors. The Group may require further financing in addition
to amounts currently on its balance sheet. Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and debt
financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. If the Group is unable to obtain
additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations. There is however no
guarantee that the Group will be able to secure any additional funding or be able to secure funding on terms
favourable to the Group.
The Group manages this risk by maintaining strong relationships with shareholders, investors and brokers, actively
monitoring capital markets, and pursuing a range of funding options to ensure flexibility in its capital structure.
i) Cyber Security Risk
The Group relies on information technology systems for its operational, financial and communication processes.
These systems are subject to the risk of cyber-attack, data breaches, unauthorised access, system failure or theft of
commercially sensitive information. Such events could disrupt operations, compromise confidential data, regulatory
implications, or result in financial loss and reputational damage.
The Group manages the cyber security risk by maintaining robust IT security protocols including multi-factor
authentication, ongoing awareness training for staff and phishing testing, continuous upgrading of software and
hardware to remove security risks, engaging third parties to conduct penetration testing.
Significant Changes in the State of Affairs
On 1 November 2024, an announcement was made for the cessation of 500,000 options expiring 31 October 2024.
TG Gold Pty Ltd was incorporated on 11 November 2024, which forms the consolidated group.
