Transaction Resolutions

Each of the Minority Interest Acquisition Resolution, the Control Person Resolution and the Management Change Resolution was approved by the requisite majority of the votes cast by disinterested shareholders, in each case excluding the votes described below.

Minority Interest Acquisition Resolution. The resolution approving the acquisition of the remaining 26.25% minority interest in Andean Belt Resources SpA (“ABR“) held by five entities controlled by Mr. Juan Enrique Rassmuss (the “Minority Interest Acquisition”) constituted a “related party transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”) and accordingly required “minority approval” under Section 8.1 of MI 61-101. In determining whether minority approval was obtained, the Company excluded the votes attached to the 133,114,832 Common Shares beneficially owned, or over which control or direction is exercised, by Mr. Rassmuss, his related parties and joint actors. On a disinterested basis, 8,849,281 votes (99.938%) were cast for and 5,500 votes (0.062%) were cast against the Minority Interest Acquisition Resolution.

Control Person Resolution. The resolution approving GMC SPV Equity 01 Inc. (the “Anchor Investor”) becoming a new “Control Person” of the Company under the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) required disinterested shareholder approval, excluding the votes attached to the Common Shares beneficially held by, or over which control or direction is exercised by, the Anchor Investor and its associates and affiliates. As the Anchor Investor and its associates and affiliates held no Common Shares as at the record date, no votes were excluded from this resolution. 141,964,112 votes (99.996%) were cast for and 5,500 votes (0.004%) were cast against the Control Person Resolution.

Management Change Resolution. The resolution approving the reconstitution of the board of directors and senior management of the Company, which constitutes a “Change of Management” under the policies of the TSXV, required disinterested shareholder approval, excluding the votes attached to the 160,000 Common Shares beneficially held by, or over which control or direction is exercised by, the proposed new directors and officers and their respective associates and affiliates. On a disinterested basis, 141,804,112 votes (99.996%) were cast for and 5,500 votes (0.004%) were cast against the Management Change Resolution.

A summary of the voting results on these three resolutions is set out below:

Next Steps

Upon satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions, which is expected to occur on August 24, 2026, the escrowed gross proceeds of the Offering will be released to the Company and the Subscription Receipts will be exchanged for their underlying securities of the Company.
