• Kerim Sener, Managing Director of Ariana Resources, commented:

"We are excited to announce that Ariana is now offering eligible investors the opportunity to invest through our ASX listing. This milestone marks a significant step forward for the Company, opening the door to a wider and more global shareholder base, including several prominent institutional investors. It also brings heightened visibility to our ambitious development plans for the >1 million ounce Dokwe Gold Project in Zimbabwe, at a time when global demand for gold remains very strong.

"As a British company with deep historical ties to Australia and our long-standing office presence in Perth, the ASX listing will strengthen our connection to and enhance communication with our Australian investors. We are confident that this dual-listing will help unlock greater value for the Company and its significant gold project assets."

ASX Offer Details

As noted above, the ASX Offer is a public offering of a minimum of 35,714,286 CDIs (equivalent to 357,142,860 Shares) and a maximum of 53,571,429 CDIs (equivalent to 535,714,290 Shares) at an issue price of A$0.28 per CDI to raise between A$10,000,000 and A$15,000,000 (before costs).

The ASX Offer comprises:

• an offer open to Australian resident retail investors who receive an invitation from their broker to participate (the "Broker Firm Offer");
• an offer to certain institutional investors in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Switzerland, Singapore and the United Kingdom who have been invited by the Company and/or the Lead Manager to participate (the "Institutional Offer"); and
• an offer to those Australian resident investors who are eligible to participate, or any other person who the Company reasonably believes is able to be offered CDIs in accordance with applicable laws without the need for any disclosure document, registration, qualification, filing or other formality (other than a registration or formality which the Company is willing to comply with) (the "General Offer").

The Prospectus also contains secondary offers of CDIs to Director, Dr. Kerim Sener in conversion of accrued directors' fees and, separately, options to acquire CDIs for the Lead Manager (or its nominees).

The total number of Shares on issue on admission to the ASX on an undiluted basis (including Shares underlying the CDIs) is expected to be between 2,302,663,761 and 2,481,235,191 Shares.
