The Company also announces that further to the Subscription, it has raised an additional £130,000 from certain existing shareholders who were unable to participate in the Subscription (the "Further Subscription" and, together with the Subscription and Director Subscription, the "Fundraise") on the same terms as the Subscription. In total the Fundraise has raised gross proceeds of approximately c.£863,270 for the Company with an additional c.£66,730 of new Ordinary Shares being issued in relation to Directors' Fee Conversions and issue of Fee Shares to professional advisers.

The Director Subscription was referenced in the Subscription Announcement and will result in the issue and allotment of a total of 1,431,250 new Ordinary Shares at the Issue Price of 8 pence (the "Director Subscription Shares"). The Director Subscription consists of certain members of the Board subscribing for a total of c.£89,769 new Ordinary Shares at the Issue Price and certain members of the Board converting outstanding salaries totaling c.£24,731 into new Ordinary Shares at the Issue Price, as detailed in the announcement released by the Company on 13 September 2024.

Furthermore, utilising the Directors' existing authorities given by the Company's shareholders to issue new Ordinary Shares for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis, the Company has raised additional gross proceeds of £130,000 through the allotment and issue of 1,625,000 new Ordinary Shares (the "Further Subscription Shares") at the Issue Price. The net proceeds of the Director Subscription and the Further Subscription will be utilised in the same manner as described in the Subscription Announcement.

Commenting on the additional fundraise Ryan Mee, CEO of Fulcrum Metals, said:

"The Company has successfully raised the additional funds that will allow it to accelerate its transformation into a technology-led business, with a dedicated focus on tailings processing, unlocking both value and increasing sustainability in our operations. Importantly, the Board is fully aligned with our shareholders, having participated in the fundraising.

Fulcrum as a company is in an exciting position, adopting disruptive technologies to tailings with at surface resources and positioning as a leader in responsible sustainable extraction practices in Canada and I look forward to updating the markets in due course."
