Update on Potential Sale of Tax Losses

Further to the Company's announcement of 2 July 2024, ECR, through its engagement with Argonaut PCF Ltd (''Argonaut''), is currently in discussions with three Australia-domiciled public and private companies in relation to the potential sale of its A$75 million of tax losses. Each company has signed a non-disclosure agreement.
ECR's tax losses are held within its wholly owned subsidiary, Mercator Gold Australia Pty Ltd, and were incurred during the period from 2006 to date. Any sale of the tax losses would be coupled with a disposal of certain non-core assets of the Company. Whilst no guarantee can be given as to any potential sale or agreement being reached or as to the timing or terms, the board of directors of ECR (the "Board" or the "Directors") continues to be encouraged by the considerable interest shown in this potentially valuable asset.
