Page 1 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 ABOUT HAVILAH Key Strengths • Advanced stage multi-commodity mineral portfolio located in northeastern South Australia, near Broken Hill. • Successful exploration discovery track record combined with a large contiguous ground position in the highly prospective but under-explored Curnamona Province that is also host to the giant Broken Hill orebody. Key Assets and Attributes Copper–gold–cobalt • Kalkaroo: Kalkaroo is one of the larger undeveloped open pit copper-gold deposits in Australia, based on a 100 million tonne JORC Ore Reserve (90% is in the Proved classification). • A large mineralised system, with mineralisation occurring in a variety of structural settings and rock types. • Mutooroo: Comparatively high-grade open pit and underground copper deposit (1.53%) with appreciable cobalt (20,200 tonnes). Mutooroo is one of the larger and higher-grade undeveloped sulphide cobalt deposits associated with copper in Australia. • Considerable exploration discovery upside for resource expansion of both Kalkaroo and Mutooroo deposits along strike, down-dip and in adjacent areas. Iron ore • Maldorky and Grants: Combined JORC Mineral Resource of 451 million tonnes of iron ore in close proximity to the Barrier Highway and Transcontinental railway line to Port Augusta. With its high-yields (40%) and high iron recoveries (85%) Maldorky iron ore is amenable to efficient upgrading to a 65% Fe high-quality product (with relatively low impurities) that potentially could be suitable for pelletising. • Grants Basin: An Exploration Target* of 3.5-3.8 billion tonnes with a grade range of 24-28% Fe (applying an 18% iron assay cut-off grade) covering only 25% of the known iron ore basin area. Lies adjacent to the Barrier Highway and Transcontinental railway line. * Note that the potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. Conflict-free, strategic and/or critical minerals • Rare earth elements (‘REE’), molybdenum, sulphur, tin and tungsten potential, in association with existing JORC Mineral Resources for copper, gold, cobalt, iron ore and uranium oxide. Exploration upside • ~16,000 km2 of mineral tenements in the Curnamona Province, covering some of the most prospective and under-explored geological terrain in Australia for copper, gold, cobalt, iron ore, REE and uranium. Refer to havilah-resources-projects.com/exploration for further information. Favourable logistics and infrastructure, low sovereign risk, Tier 1 mining jurisdiction 1 • Located in northeastern South Australia in proximity to the Transcontinental railway line, Barrier Highway and regional mining centre of Broken Hill with its skilled workforce. South Australia has a stable regulatory environment, is a low sovereign risk jurisdiction, with a mining friendly government that actively encourages mineral exploration and development. South Australia’s regulatory regime encourages the highest ESG (environmental, social and governance) standards. Experienced technical team • Havilah’s current technical team has an exceptional track record of exploration success (including the delineation of 8 JORC Mineral Resources) and has developed and previously operated the Portia gold mine. Havilah operates its own drilling crew, which has been one of the keys to its cost-effective and successful exploration. Key Strategic Objectives Havilah’s underlying objective that guides all of its activities is to maximise returns to shareholders via strategic management of its multi-commodity mineral portfolio in South Australia, which is being achieved by: • Progressively de-risking its advanced mineral projects to attract investment partners via farm-out or asset sale. • New exploration discoveries on its large and highly prospective Curnamona Province mineral tenement holding. Key Risks Key risks identified by the Board of Directors as being specific to the Group and its operations and reasonably anticipated by the Board are set out on pages 69 and 70. It is important to note that the risks listed are not an exhaustive list of the risks relevant to the Group. 1 South Australia was ranked 10th best jurisdiction for global investment attractiveness by the independent Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies 2021. Page 2 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 Havilah’s deposit, prospect and tenement portfolio in northeastern South Australia, near Broken Hill, including the location of the Kalkaroo project and Curnamona Province Strategic Alliance Area of Interest exploration licences. Page 3 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 LETTER FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS The Board’s strategic objective is to maximise the fair value of Havilah’s multi-commodity mineral portfolio either by production, sale or farm-out with suitable well-funded partners. The Kalkaroo Option with OZ Exploration Pty Ltd (‘OZ Exploration’) is an important first step in potentially achieving this objective. On 16 May 2022 a conditional binding Terms Sheet was signed with OZ Minerals Limited and OZ Exploration (together ‘OZ Minerals’) in relation to a Proposed Transaction comprising key elements of the grant of an option to purchase the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project (‘Kalkaroo Option’) and a strategic alliance in the copper- rich Curnamona Province of South Australia. At the general meeting held on 31 August 2022, Havilah sought and obtained shareholder approval of the Proposed Transaction and disposal of interest in the Kalkaroo copper- gold-cobalt project in accordance with the Kalkaroo Transaction (the grant and exercise of the Kalkaroo Option). The Board is very pleased to have formed a strategic alliance with OZ Exploration, which aims to harness the respective skills of both companies to explore and develop Australia’s next great copper province. Funding provided under the Curnamona Province Strategic Alliance will allow Havilah to accelerate exploration for new copper deposits in the Area of Interest tenements that potentially could be additive to Kalkaroo, as well as advancing our other promising mineral projects south of the Barrier Highway. Exercise of the Kalkaroo Option by OZ Exploration would result in monetisation of Kalkaroo without Havilah taking on the longer-term development and financing risks inherent in a large new mining project at this time. Establishing a new copper hub in the Curnamona Province could also promote regional development in northeastern South Australia and have potentially significant positive flow on effects within local communities. The Mutooroo project also offers a significant regional development opportunity with copper and cobalt; as well as gold and sulphur, if feasible. Mutooroo is one of the larger and higher-grade undeveloped sulphide cobalt deposits associated with copper in Australia. Pre-feasibility studies of existing copper-cobalt mineral resources are in progress. Our focus going forward will be on identifying additional high-grade extensions to the current Mutooroo resource. While copper is the dominant driver of project economics, unlocking the value of cobalt as a significant by-product credit has the potential to enhance project returns. The Mutooroo Project Area remains under-explored and highly prospective for copper and cobalt. Evaluation of existing geological, geophysical and geochemical data has identified many robust copper-cobalt exploration targets that will be followed up as part of the Mutooroo spoke and hub development concept. Size and grade of discoveries do not need to be stand-alone as the copper sulphide ore could be additional feed for a proposed Mutooroo sulphide ore processing plant. Regional copper-cobalt exploration across the Mutooroo Project Area is just beginning and we are excited by the potential for resource growth. At Grants Basin, Havilah plans to conduct a shallow reverse circulation resource delineation drilling program at the western end of the ore deposit, initially targeting a maiden JORC open pit Mineral Resource of at least 0.5 billion tonnes of iron ore. Indications are that Grants Basin is a Pilbara-scale iron ore deposit. The Braemar iron region in northeastern South Australia is a well-recognised host to several defined iron ore deposits, including Havilah’s 100% owned Maldorky and Grants iron ore projects. With its high-yield (40%) and high iron recoveries (85%) Maldorky iron ore is amenable to efficient upgrading to a 65% Fe high-quality product that potentially could be suitable for pelletising. Havilah intends to unlock the full potential of its iron ore assets, with the aim of attracting a suitable investment partner with an interest in securing high-grade iron ore feedstock for 'green’ steel. Another of Havilah’s strategic assets is its ~16,000 km2 tenement holding in the Curnamona Province that is prospective for a variety of commodities. Maintaining a large strategic tenement holding is fundamentally important because it gives Havilah the opportunity to replace any JORC Mineral Resources, that it may sell or farm-out, through new economic discoveries. A key Board objective is to maintain an active program of exploration work on projects and prospects that have the most potential for new discoveries. This objective will be greatly assisted by exploration funding provided under the Curnamona Province Strategic Alliance. We believe the Curnamona Province has yet to realise its full potential. Economic, geopolitical, and environmental issues have highlighted the need for more secure and sustainable sources of uranium. Havilah holds an exceptionally well-positioned uranium exploration footprint in the Curnamona Province and is encouraged by the success of the neighbouring Honeymoon uranium project. The Board believes Havilah’s uranium assets are undervalued within the current group structure and accordingly is continuing to pursue a proposed new initial public offering (‘IPO’) to unlock the value of its uranium assets. We thank all shareholders, employees and contractors for their continued support as we move forward to realise the latent value in Havilah’s multi-commodity mineral portfolio for the benefit of all stakeholders.

These systems are reviewed periodically and revised if appropriate. The Board of Directors is committed to administering the Group’s policies and procedures with transparency and integrity, pursuing the genuine spirit of good corporate governance practice. To the extent they are applicable, the Group has adopted the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (4th Edition). As the Group’s activities transform in size, nature and scope, additional corporate governance structures will be considered by the Board of Directors and assessed as to their relevance. In accordance with the ASX Listing Rules, the Corporate Governance Statement and Appendix 4G checklist as approved by the Board of Directors are released to the ASX on the same day the Annual Report is released. The Corporate Governance policies and charters are available under the Corporate Governance tab on the Company's website. Page 7 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Environmental Sustainability Havilah subscribes to the principle of sustainability across all of its operations. This includes minimising disturbance to the natural environment to the maximum extent practicable and where possible, helping to improve environmental outcomes through judicious conservation initiatives. Havilah practices this principle on Kalkaroo Station, which it owns. Havilah’s ESG (environmental, social and governance) credentials can be found on the Company’s website. Critical to long-term mining developments in the region is maintaining good relations with all stakeholders, including pastoralists, native title holders and the general community. Establishing a new copper hub in the Curnamona Province could promote regional development in northeastern South Australia and have potentially significant positive flow on effects within local communities. The Curnamona Province is uniquely located in one of the most favourable places in Australia for combined wind and solar power generation. It is Havilah’s goal to utilise these natural geographic advantages to maximise the generation and use of renewable energy. The worldwide renewable energy transition is expected to create a surge in demand for critical minerals. These are the commodities with a central role in the drive for a clean energy future - elements such as copper for energy transmission; cobalt for energy storage; and uranium and REE for wind, solar and nuclear power energy generation. As a core metal used in renewable energy infrastructure, copper has 4 key properties (conductivity, ductility, efficiency and recyclability) that make it vital for the renewable energy transition. By exploring and developing Australia’s next great copper province, Havilah expects to make a contribution in enabling this energy transition. Iron ore will also be important in accelerating the worldwide movement from fossil fuels to renewables, given the essential role of steel in building out renewable energy infrastructure (power grids, electric networks and wind farms). Environmental Regulations The Group carries out exploration and evaluation activities on its mineral exploration tenements and relevant mining leases in South Australia. The Group’s operations, exploration and evaluation activities are subject to a range of South Australian and Commonwealth environmental legislation and associated regulations, as well as site-specific environmental criteria. No material breaches of these compliance conditions occurred during the financial year. Proceedings on Behalf of the Company No person has applied to the Court under Section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party, for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all or part of those proceedings. COVID-19 Pandemic The Group continues to manage its operations in compliance with COVID-19 regulations issued by State and Commonwealth authorities. It proactively manages drilling and other field programmes to protect the health and wellbeing of its personnel, contractors and stakeholders. New COVID-19 variants and infection rates across the community continue to pose a risk. Accordingly, there are no guarantees that in the future further travel restrictions and border closings, stay-at-home and quarantine notices, or lockdowns will not be imposed by government, as events continue to unfold relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, its variants and the availability of new vaccines. The financial year was adversely impacted by the availability of Havilah’s drilling crew and technical staff due to COVID-19 absenteeism, and indirectly via delays in equipment delivery and restrictions in contractor movements. Business Strategies and Prospects, Likely Developments and Expected Results of Operations The Review of Operations sets out information on the business strategies and prospects for future financial years, refers to likely developments in operations and the expected results of those operations in future financial years. Information in the Review of Operations is provided to enable shareholders to make an informed assessment about the business strategies and prospects for future financial years of the Group. Other than the matters included in this Directors’ Report or elsewhere in this Annual Report, information about other likely developments in the Group’s operations and the expected results of those operations have not been included. Details that could give rise to likely material detriment to Havilah, for example, information that is confidential, commercially sensitive or could give a third party a commercial advantage has not been included. Page 8 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Review of Operations Kalkaroo Copper-Gold-Cobalt Project (HAV 100% ownership) Havilah’s 100% owned Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt deposit contains JORC Mineral Resources of 1.1 million tonnes of copper, 3.1 million ounces of gold and 23,200 tonnes of cobalt. It has an open pit JORC Ore Reserve of 100 million tonnes of which 90% is in the Proved classification (see JORC tables below). Kalkaroo is one of the larger undeveloped open pit copper-gold deposits in Australia. Havilah has already secured the required mining permits (Mining Leases and Miscellaneous Purposes Licences) for the Kalkaroo project. It also owns the surrounding Kalkaroo Station pastoral lease, a non-mineral asset on which the Kalkaroo project is located, thus reducing land access risks for the project. Large-scale open pit copper-gold development opportunities in Australia like Kalkaroo are rare, particularly at a time of escalating copper usage associated with the worldwide movement towards renewable energy and electrified transportation. On 16 May 2022 Havilah signed a conditional binding Terms Sheet with OZ Minerals relating to a Proposed Transaction comprising the key elements of the grant of an option to OZ Exploration to purchase the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project and a strategic alliance to explore for copper in Havilah’s extensive tenement holding in the Curnamona Province of northeastern South Australia (refer to ASX announcement of 17 May 2022). The Mutooroo copper-cobalt-gold project and the associated surrounding tenements are excluded from the Curnamona Province Strategic Alliance, as are Havilah’s iron ore and uranium interests. Havilah has evaluated many possibilities for development of Kalkaroo and the Board believes the terms negotiated with OZ Minerals offer the best opportunity to date for Havilah shareholders to potentially realise fair value for the Kalkaroo project. The Group also executed full form definitive agreements with OZ Exploration that covered all aspects of the Proposed Transaction (refer to ASX announcement of 26 July 2022). The remaining outstanding condition precedent as at 31 July 2022 for the Proposed Transaction to proceed was approval of the Kalkaroo Transaction by Havilah shareholders. Accordingly, a general meeting of shareholders was called for 31 August 2022 and associated Notice of Meeting documents prepared (refer to ASX announcement of 29 July 2022). The Independent Expert’s Report concluded that the Kalkaroo Transaction is fair and reasonable to, and in the best interests of, shareholders in the absence of a superior offer (refer to Schedule 4 of the Explanatory Memorandum attached to the Notice of Meeting). At the general meeting of shareholders held on 31 August 2022, Havilah shareholders overwhelmingly approved the Proposed Transaction and disposal of interest in the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project in accordance with the Kalkaroo Transaction. During the 18 month Kalkaroo Option period, OZ Exploration plans to undertake and sole fund a study and work program on the Kalkaroo Tenements (granted Mining Leases and Miscellaneous Purposes Licences) with the aim of progressing and completing an update to the current Kalkaroo project pre-feasibility study. The results of the study and work program will assist OZ Exploration in determining whether to exercise the Kalkaroo Option during the 18 month Kalkaroo Option period. If exercised, OZ Exploration would proceed with the purchase of 100% of the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project for a consideration payable to the Group of a cash payment of $205,000,000 at completion, and contingent consideration up to a maximum of $200,000,000 subject to the satisfaction of the relevant milestones. OZ Exploration may elect to not exercise the Kalkaroo Option at any time during the 18 month Kalkaroo Option period provided 5,000 metres has been drilled on the Kalkaroo Tenements or a shortfall payment (metres not drilled multiplied by $400) is paid to the Group (refer to ASX announcement of 17 May 2022, page 21). Overall, the Proposed Transaction, as subsequently approved by Havilah shareholders at the 31 August 2022 general meeting, could provide substantial benefits for shareholders over time, as summarised in the following chart (Figure 1). Page 9 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Review of Operations (continued) Kalkaroo Copper-Gold-Cobalt Project (HAV 100% ownership) (continued) *Note: these two Kalkaroo project contingent payments are conditional on exercise of the Kalkaroo Option, completion of the acquisition and the milestones stated being achieved. For full details of the terms relating to these contingent payments refer to the Notice of Meeting released to the ASX on 29 July 2022. Figure 1 Summary chart of two main pillars of the Proposed Transaction and the possible benefits that could flow to Havilah. The Curnamona Province Strategic Alliance provides Havilah with the financial means to intensively explore its Curnamona Province tenements for new copper deposits that could be complementary to, and supportive of, a new mining development at Kalkaroo. OZ Exploration will pay the Company $1,000,000 per month for each month during the Alliance Period up to a maximum of $18,000,000. At least 50% of this amount must be used for costs and expenses incurred in relation to Strategic Alliance activities aimed at the discovery, location and delineation of copper dominant mineralisation and any work relating to the possible development and exploitation of minerals within the defined 12,000 km2 Area of Interest tenement holding (see tenement map, page 3). The other 50% may be used by Havilah for its general working capital and corporate expenditure as determined by Havilah, which includes advancing Havilah’s other promising mineral projects south of the Barrier Highway including the Mutooroo copper-cobalt-gold project and the Grants Basin iron ore project. During the financial year the revised Program for Environment Protection and Rehabilitation (‘PEPR’) document for the proposed West Kalkaroo oxidised ore open pit, as required for the Department for Energy and Mining (‘DEM’) permitting approval, was essentially completed. In light of the above developments with OZ Minerals, the PEPR document has been withdrawn pending the results of the OZ Exploration study program and whether it decides to exercise the Kalkaroo Option. Rare Earth Element Potential at Kalkaroo Project Havilah has completed a considerable amount of research on the recovery of REE metals from the West Kalkaroo saprolite gold ore in collaboration with the Future Industries Institute at the University of South Australia. Bastnasite, a REE carbonate-fluoride mineral, has been identified as the primary REE host in West Kalkaroo oxidised copper-gold ore samples (refer to ASX announcement of 3 November 2020). Ongoing laboratory work has focused on how best to integrate bastnasite recovery into the oxidised ore processing flow sheet. This work was partially funded by an Accelerated Discovery Initiative (‘ADI’) grant, the results of which are reported on the Department for Energy and Mining SARIG website. Page 10 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Review of Operations (continued) Mutooroo Copper-Cobalt-Gold Project (HAV 100% ownership) Mutooroo is Havilah’s advanced stage copper-cobalt-gold project that is located within commuting distance of Broken Hill, and 16 km south of the Transcontinental railway line and Barrier Highway. It contains 195,000 tonnes of copper, 20,200 tonnes of cobalt and 82,100 ounces of gold in Measured, Indicated and Inferred JORC Mineral Resources (see JORC table below). As such, Mutooroo is one of the larger and higher- grade undeveloped sulphide cobalt deposits associated with copper in Australia. Cobalt within the Mutooroo resource is contained within the iron sulphide minerals, pyrite and pyrrhotite. These minerals can be separated and concentrated during the copper sulphide concentration process. The cobalt-bearing iron sulphides are potentially an attractive grade cobalt feedstock for subsequent processing to recover cobalt, and also if feasible, significant amounts of associated gold and sulphur. Havilah continues to investigate the best options for recovery of cobalt contained in the iron sulphide concentrates, to capture additional project revenue and so potentially improve returns from the Mutooroo project. Havilah will use a portion of funding received from the Curnamona Province Strategic Alliance to advance the pre-feasibility study (‘PFS’) on the Mutooroo project. The PFS is based on current JORC Measured Resources, initially from an open cut mine that potentially transitions to a longer-term underground mining operation. Seven reverse circulation (‘RC’) drillholes were completed at Mutooroo and reported during the financial year (refer to ASX announcement of 17 January 2022). This drilling confirmed the presence of 1-5 metre thicknesses of copper-cobalt massive sulphide lode, consistent with historical records of the sulphide lodes in cross-cuts in the mine workings in the vicinity. Encouraging grades of copper-cobalt mineralisation included:  Drillhole MTRC232 – 5 metres of 1.01% copper, 0.12% cobalt and 0.09 g/t gold (including 3 metres of 1.67% copper, 0.19% cobalt and 0.12 g/t gold) from 66 metres downhole; and  Drillhole MTRC233 – 5 metres of 1.7% copper, 0.18% cobalt and 0.13 g/t gold (including 2 metres of 2.13% copper, 0.22% cobalt and 0.19 g/t gold) from 95 metres downhole. Assay results for a further 12 RC drillholes along strike at Mutooroo were reported after the end of the financial year. Eight of these drillholes supported the results for the earlier drillholes reported above, while 4 drillholes effectively closed off the sulphide lode at shallow depths along the southern strike extensions (refer to ASX announcement of 29 September 2022). This RC drilling is part of the Mutooroo PFS with the primary objective to test for shallow, open pit copper-cobalt sulphide resources along strike from the existing Mutooroo resource and conceptual open pit design and below the shallow oxidised copper ore that was exploited via several historic mine shafts (Figure 2). The results of these drilling programs will inform a mineral resource update for the Mutooroo project as part of the PFS. Figure 2 Mutooroo mine long section showing the lode piercement points of RC drillholes completed during the financial year. Page 11 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Review of Operations (continued) Grants Basin, Maldorky and Grants Iron Ore Projects (HAV 100% ownership) The Braemar iron region in northeastern South Australia is a well-recognised host to several defined iron ore deposits, including Havilah’s 100% owned Maldorky and Grants iron ore projects. With its high-yield (40%) and high iron recoveries (85%) Maldorky iron ore is amenable to efficient upgrading to a 65% Fe high-quality product that potentially could be suitable for pelletising. The Maldorky project has a JORC Indicated Mineral Resource of 147 Mt of 30.1% iron at an 18% iron cut-off (see JORC table below). It is located approximately 90 km southwest of Broken Hill, and 26 km south of the Barrier Highway and Transcontinental railway line. The iron ore resource is contained in a flat tabular deposit with thin overburden, making it well suited to an open pit mining operation. Granting of the Mining Lease for Maldorky continues to be dependent on obtaining a signed Native Title Mining Agreement and successful land access negotiations. Havilah has previously reported an iron ore Exploration Target* at Grants Basin of 3.5-3.8 billion tonnes of 24- 28% iron (refer to ASX announcement of 5 April 2019). The western end of this Exploration Target* crops out as a solid body of iron ore at least 270 metres thick from surface. When drilling capacity becomes available, Havilah plans to conduct a shallow RC resource delineation drilling program that is designed to convert a portion of the western end Exploration Target* to a maiden JORC open pit Mineral Resource, initially targeting at least 0.5 billion tonnes of iron ore. The drilling is planned on existing, infill and extensional lines within the Exploration Target* area, with holes nominally spaced 100 metres along lines 200 metres apart. The results from this drilling program will define a maiden JORC open pit iron ore resource for the Grants Basin iron ore project that will form part of a mining scoping study. Havilah intends to unlock the full potential of its iron ore assets, with the aim of attracting a suitable investment partner with an interest in securing high-grade iron ore feedstock for 'green’ steel. * Note that the potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. Figure 3 A several thousand metre shallow RC drilling program is planned at the western end of the Grants Basin with the objective of defining a maiden JORC open pit iron ore resource that will form part of a mining scoping study. Additional RC drillholes are also proposed to improve confidence in the existing Grants iron ore resource and elevate it to JORC Indicated classification (if feasible). Havilah was not able to commence a resource delineation drilling program during the financial year, as planned, due to COVID-19 related delays, including a several month delay in taking delivery of a new air compressor. Page 12 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Review of Operations (continued) Exploration Strategy the One of Havilah’s strategic assets Curnamona Province, that is prospective for a variety of commodities including several strategic and critical minerals such as copper, cobalt, molybdenum, sulphur, REE, tin and tungsten. Exploration for new economic discoveries leveraging off Havilah’s large prospective tenement holding and utilising the Company’s extensive knowledge base is a key objective. its ~16,000 km2 under-explored tenement holding in is Despite hosting the giant lead-zinc-silver ore deposit at Broken Hill, much of the South Australian portion of the Curnamona Province is under-explored due to extensive sedimentary cover. The geological similarity of the Curnamona Province to the eastern Gawler Craton and the Mount Isa-Cloncurry Block indicates similar prospectivity for major ore deposits. Accordingly, a key Board objective is to maintain an active program of exploration work on projects and prospects that have the most potential for new discoveries. This objective will be greatly assisted by the exploration funding provided under the Curnamona Province Strategic Alliance. Mutooroo Project Area (HAV 100% ownership) Havilah’s exploration strategy is to discover additional copper-cobalt-gold resources in the Mutooroo Project Area that could support a central mining and processing operation centred on the Mutooroo copper-cobalt deposit. Havilah intends to systematically explore the Mutooroo Project Area, with an experienced exploration geologist presently dedicated to this task. The Mutooroo Project Area is particularly attractive for exploration owing to the generally thin cover, applicability of surface geochemical sampling methods and electrical geophysical methods. The area has the major logistical advantage of being close to Broken Hill, the Barrier Highway and Transcontinental railway line. All known prospects are located within trucking distance of the Mutooroo copper-cobalt deposit and the terrain is generally flat. Evaluation of existing geological, geophysical and geochemical data for the Mutooroo Project Area has identified many robust copper-cobalt exploration targets on several priority prospects (Figure 4) that will be followed up during 2022, as part of the Mutooroo spoke and hub development concept, subject to drilling rig availability and weather conditions. Figure 4 Locations of the Mutooroo copper-cobalt deposit and known prospects within the highly prospective Mutooroo Project Area. Page 13 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Review of Operations (continued) Jupiter MT and Benagerie Dyke (HAV 100% ownership) The Benagerie Dyke is a prominent linear magnetic feature that extends for at least 28 km along the interpreted western rifted margin of the Benagerie Ridge (Figure 5). Its origin is unknown as it has never been drilled, but the geometry suggests that it could represent a mafic/ultramafic intrusive complex. If so, it could be prospective for the Julimar style PGE-Ni-Cu-Co-Au mineralisation that was discovered near Perth during March 2020. The Exploration Drilling - Benagerie Dyke project has been approved for ADI matched funding of $175,000 to assist Havilah to undertake geophysical surveying and follow-up drill testing, with the objective of determining the origin of the Benagerie Dyke and its mineralisation potential (refer to ASX announcement of 22 June 2022). The Benagerie Dyke coincides with the C2 magnetotelluric (‘MT’) conductive feature (Figure 6), which lies above the major deep crustal C1 conductor that was defined by a previous ADI collaborative study (Jupiter MT Anomaly Definition Study) with The University of Adelaide. It is also marked by a deep-seated magnetic susceptibility feature. A full copy of the Jupiter MT ADI report is available on the Department for Energy and Mining SARIG website. Figure 5 Benagerie Dyke, indicated by a prominent linear aeromagnetic feature located near the western-rifted margin of the Benagerie Ridge, which could represent a mafic/ultramafic intrusive complex with PGE-Ni-Cu-Co- Au mineralisation potential by analogy with the Julimar discovery in Western Australia.

Exploration and Possible Development of Uranium Interests (HAV 100% ownership) Economic, geopolitical and environmental issues have highlighted the need for more secure and sustainable sources of uranium. Between an anticipated supply shortage, rising international tensions threatening existing supply chains and rising longer-term demand, there is a sense that the uranium market may be entering a more buoyant period. Longer-term it is apparent there is a need to discover and develop new uranium mines. Havilah holds significant uranium assets located in the highly prospective Frome Basin region of northeastern South Australia, as documented on the Company’s website. This tier 1 uranium province hosts several substantial sand-hosted uranium deposits including the Beverley, Beverley North and Four Mile mines and the Honeymoon restart uranium project. Havilah believes its uranium assets are undervalued within the current Group structure and has previously announced its intention to demerge its uranium assets and sponsor an IPO of its uranium assets via its wholly owned subsidiary, NU Energy Resources Pty Ltd (refer to ASX announcement of 9 November 2021). Preparation of a draft IPO prospectus, including an independent geologist’s report, relevant due diligence, potential selection of directors and engagement with brokers advanced during the financial year. This process was delayed because of the recent unfavourable market conditions for new mineral related IPOs and also because of senior management’s focus on finalising the Proposed Transaction details with OZ Minerals. It still remains Havilah’s intention to proceed with the uranium assets’ IPO at the earliest favourable market opportunity, subject to final approval by the Havilah Board plus ASX and other regulatory approvals.

These estimates and the supporting documentation were reviewed by a suitably qualified Competent Person prior to inclusion in this Annual Report. in Place for the Reporting of Internal Controls Competent Person’s Statements The information in this Annual Report that relates to Exploration Targets, Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves is based on data compiled by geologist Dr Christopher Giles, a Competent Person who is a member of The Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Dr Giles is a Director of the Company, a full-time employee and is a substantial shareholder. Dr Giles has sufficient experience, which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit and activities described herein, to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’. Dr Giles consents to the inclusion in this Annual Report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears. Information for the Kalkaroo Ore Reserve & Mineral Resource and the Mutooroo Inferred cobalt & gold Mineral Resources complies with the JORC Code 2012. All other information was prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004 and is presented on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported. Havilah confirms that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the reserves and resources continue to apply and have not materially changed. Except where explicitly stated, this Annual Report contains references to prior Exploration Targets and Exploration Results, all of which have been cross-referenced to previous ASX announcements made by Havilah. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the relevant ASX announcements. Financial Position At the end of the financial year the Group had a cash and cash equivalents balance of $1,610,201 (31 July 2021: $4,007,410). The Group’s working capital, being current assets less current liabilities, decreased from a net current asset surplus of $2,737,221 as at 31 July 2021 to $760,932 as at 31 July 2022 predominantly as a result of expenditure on the Group’s exploration projects. The Group’s equity investment in ASX listed Auteco Minerals Ltd as at 31 July 2022 was valued at $240,917 (31 July 2021: $540,834). Exploration and evaluation expenditure carried forward increased during the financial year to $39,048,268 primarily due to $1,932,120 incurred on Kalkaroo, Mutooroo and iron ore tenements; partially offset by the recognition of $230,776 on completion of two of the ADI grants. A new more powerful air compressor was acquired during the financial year for the drilling rig operated by Havilah, at a cost of $193,500. Its installation had been delayed by shipping transport bottlenecks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The new air compressor will increase productivity and the efficiency of the drilling rig operated by Havilah. The Kalkaroo Station pastoral lease, on which the Kalkaroo deposit is situated, continues to be carried at cost ($2,241,043) in property, plant and equipment. Cockburn, South Australia property purchased during the financial year for $61,000 (freehold land $22,000 and buildings $39,000) will be redeveloped and used as an exploration camp and depot for Mutooroo Project Area and iron ore exploration in the region. The Group’s total liabilities decreased predominantly due to final settlement with the Australian Tax Office (‘ATO’) on a prior financial period Research & Development amendment, a movement in deferred grants and partial settlement of trade and other payables; partially offset by an increase in borrowings and provision for employee benefits. The Group was awarded an ADI grant amounting to $175,000 during the financial year (2021: two ADI, $275,000) provided on a matching dollar-for-dollar expenditure basis, from the South Australian government. Of these amounts $158,309 (2021: $111,500) was received during the financial year under the ADI advanced payment arrangement. The Company issued 10,321,982 new fully paid ordinary shares during the financial year, with contributed equity increasing by $2,382,020 as at 31 July 2022. Funds were raised for general administration and/or ongoing working capital requirements.

Page 18 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Remuneration Report (Audited) This Remuneration Report, which forms part of this Directors’ Report, sets out information about the remuneration of the Group’s key management personnel for the financial year. The term ‘key management personnel’ refers to those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling, directly or indirectly, the activities of the consolidated entity. The information provided in this Remuneration Report has been audited by the Company’s external auditor, as required by Section 308(3C) of the Corporations Act 2001. The prescribed details for each person covered by this Remuneration Report are detailed below under the following sections: Section 1. Key Management Personnel Details Section 2. Remuneration Policy Section 3. Relationship between the Remuneration Policy and Group Performance Section 4. Remuneration of Key Management Personnel Section 5. Key Terms of Employment Contracts Section 6. Statutory Reporting Section 1. Key Management Personnel Details The following persons acted as Directors or other key management personnel of the Group during the financial year: Position Term Directors Mr Simon Gray Executive Director – Chairman, Company Secretary, Chief Financial Officer Full financial year Mr Victor Previn Independent Non-Executive Director Full financial year Dr Christopher Giles Executive Director – Technical Director Full financial year Other Key Management Personnel Mr Richard Buckley Senior Mine Planning Engineer Full financial year The named persons held their current position for the whole of the financial year and since the end of the financial year. Section 2. Remuneration Policy The Group embodies the following criteria in its remuneration framework: (i) performance-based and aligned with the Group’s vision, values and overall business objectives; (ii) designed to motivate Directors and executives to pursue the Group’s long-term growth and success; and (iii) demonstrate a clear relationship between the Group’s overall performance and the performance of executives and employees. The objectives of the Remuneration Committee are to support and advise the Board of Directors on remuneration matters and oversee the setting of remuneration policy, fees and remuneration packages for Directors and senior executives. Where possible, the Remuneration Committee should comprise at least 3 members, the majority being Independent Non-Executive Directors. In response to circumstances presented to it during the financial year ended 31 July 2020, Havilah significantly reduced its operating costs. This resulted in consolidation of the roles of management, with a Board that is more involved in the operations. As a result, it has been unable to meet the criteria for having a majority of Remuneration Committee members being independent. Page 19 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 DIRECTORS’ REPORT Remuneration Report (Audited) (continued) Section 2. Remuneration Policy (continued) It is the responsibility of the Remuneration Committee to review and make recommendations to the Board on: (a) the remuneration packages of all Directors and senior executives, including terms and conditions offered to all new appointees to these roles; (b) the adoption of appropriate long-term and short-term incentive and bonus plans, including regular review of the plans and the eligible participants; and (c) staff remuneration and incentive policies and practices. The full objectives and responsibilities of the Remuneration Committee are documented in the charter approved by the Board of Directors and is available under the Corporate Governance tab on the Company’s website. Non-Executive Directors’ fees are determined within an aggregate Directors’ fee pool limit, which is periodically approved by shareholders. Total remuneration for all Non-Executive Directors, last voted upon by shareholders at the 2016 Annual General Meeting, is not to exceed $300,000 per annum. At the 2021 Annual General Meeting a resolution that the Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 31 July 2021 be adopted was put to the vote, and received a 93.61% vote (cast on a poll) in favour.

Performance Rights and Share Option Plan The Board of Directors approved the Performance Rights and Share Option Plan (‘Plan’) during March 2019. The Plan’s purposes are to: (a) provide incentive to eligible executives and employees by enabling them to participate in the profits and financial performance of the Company; (b) attract, motivate and retain eligible executives and employees; and (c) align the interests of eligible executives and employees more closely with shareholders in the Company and provide greater incentive for the eligible executives and employees to focus on longer-term goals of the Company. The Plan is open to all employees but excludes Directors of the Company. The number of share options granted to employees is set by the Board of Directors at its discretion but consideration is given to employment contract terms. Employees are the key to Havilah’s success. Exploration activity is managed by professionally skilled and technically competent personnel and is supported by a team with decades of proven experience in their fields. Exploration success remains the basic long-term driver for the Group’s organic growth. During the financial year 200,000 unlisted share options were issued to an employee, pursuant to a resolution approved by shareholders at the 2021 Annual General Meeting, under the Plan. Each employee share option converts into one ordinary share of Havilah Resources Limited on exercise. No amounts are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the share option. The share options carry neither dividend nor voting rights. Share options may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the date of their expiry. The share options granted expire within the option period set by the Board of Directors at its discretion. Share options expire 1 month after the resignation of an employee but this condition can be waived at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Board at the time the Company made significant redundancies, during the financial year ended 31 July 2020, exercised its discretion not to require the relevant share options to lapse but allow them to continue for their full term. The Company’s short-term incentive plan annual award is subject to the absolute discretion of the Board of Directors. Payment of any short-term incentive plan bonus can be satisfied in cash or share options, subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors. Any performance bonus awarded is calculated based on the Group’s performance objectives and individual performance objectives related to the annual business plan as approved by the Board of Directors. The formula rewards management and salaried employees against the extent of the Group’s and individual’s achievement against both qualitative and quantitative criteria. The Group’s performance objective measurements are: safety; environmental stakeholder engagement; team performance; reporting, planning and management; investors/ shareholders engagement; risk/opportunity management; and funding success. No performance bonuses were rewarded during the financial year.

There has been no alteration of the terms and conditions of the above share-based payment arrangements since the grant date. During the financial year no key management personnel exercised share options that were granted to them as part of their remuneration. The total value of share options included in remuneration for the financial year is calculated in accordance with AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’. Share options granted during the current or prior financial years are recognised in share-based payments expense in profit or loss over their vesting period. For share options that vest immediately, the value is disclosed as an expense immediately. Value of share options – basis of calculation: • the fair value of share options granted is calculated as at the grant date using a binomial option pricing model. This grant date value is allocated to remuneration of key management personnel on a straight-line basis over the period from grant date to vesting date; and value of share options lapsed at the lapse date is calculated by multiplying the grant date value of the share options by the number of share options lapsed during the financial year. • For each grant of share options in the current or prior financial years which resulted in share-based payments expense to a Director or other key management personnel, the percentage of the grant that vested and the number vested is set out below: Name Number granted Number vested % of grant vested Maximum total value of grant yet to vest Directors Mr Simon Gray Mr Victor Previn Dr Christopher Giles 2,000,000 2,000,000 3,000,000 Other Key Management Personnel Mr Richard Buckley 150,000 2,000,000 2,000,000 3,000,000 150,000 100% 100% 100% 100% $- $- $- $- The maximum value of share options and performance rights yet to vest was determined as the amount of the grant date fair value of the share options that is yet to be expensed in profit or loss. No share options will vest if the service conditions are not met, therefore the minimum value of the share option yet to vest is $Nil.

END OF REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) Non-Audit Services During the financial year the Company’s external auditor, Grant Thornton Audit Pty Ltd, performed certain other services in addition to its statutory audit duties. The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during the financial year by the external auditor and is satisfied that the provision of those non-audit services is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons: (a) all non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Company and have been reviewed by the Directors to ensure they do not impact upon the impartiality and objectivity of the external auditor; and (b) the non-audit services do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants’, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the external auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing risks and rewards. Details of the amounts paid or payable to the external auditor for audit and non-audit services provided during the financial year are set out in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the revaluation of certain non-current assets and financial instruments. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified to achieve consistency in disclosure with financial year amounts and other disclosures. Functional and Presentation Currency The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Parent Company’s functional and presentation currency. Amounts are rounded to the nearest dollar. Significant Accounting Estimates, Assumptions and Judgements The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain significant accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying Group accounting policies. The areas involving a high degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements, are disclosed in: • Note 6 • Note 10 • Note 12 • Note 25 Income Tax; Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure; Other Financial Assets; and Share-based Payments. Statement of Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the consolidated financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Adoption of New or Revised Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that are First Effective in the Current Reporting Period The Group has adopted all the new and/or revised Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for the financial year. The Group has not elected to apply any new or revised Australian Accounting Standards before their operative dates during the financial year. The adoption of all of the relevant new and/or revised Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations has not resulted in any changes to the Group’s significant accounting policies and has had no effect on either the amounts reported for the current or prior financial years. A number of other Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations have been issued and will be applicable in future periods. While these remain subject to ongoing assessment, no significant impacts have been identified to date. These standards have not been applied in preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Going Concern The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. During the financial year the Group recognised a loss of $2,927,574, had net cash outflows from operating and investing activities of $4,819,480; and had accumulated losses of $40,742,324 as at 31 July 2022. On 16 May 2022 Havilah signed a conditional binding Terms Sheet with OZ Minerals relating to a Proposed Transaction comprising the key elements of the grant of an option to OZ Exploration to purchase the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project and a strategic alliance to explore for copper in Havilah’s extensive tenement holding in the Curnamona Province of northeastern South Australia. The Group also executed full form definitive agreements with OZ Exploration on 25 July 2022 that covered all aspects of the Proposed Transaction. The remaining outstanding condition precedent as at 31 July 2022 for the Proposed Transaction to proceed was approval of the Kalkaroo Transaction by Havilah shareholders. As described in Note 27(a), at the general meeting of shareholders held on 31 August 2022 Havilah shareholders overwhelmingly approved the Proposed Transaction and disposal of interest in the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project in accordance with the Kalkaroo Transaction. If exercised, OZ Exploration would proceed with the purchase of 100% of the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project for a consideration payable to the Group of a cash payment of $205,000,000 at completion, and contingent consideration up to a maximum of $200,000,000 subject to the satisfaction of the relevant milestones. On 20 September 2022 the Group received from OZ Exploration the first 3 months of funding under the Strategic Alliance agreement that was signed on 25 July 2022, paid as a lump sum of $3,000,000. In accordance with the Strategic Alliance agreement, OZ Exploration will pay the Group $1,000,000 a month (up to a total of $18,000,000 over 18 months as an Upfront Investment) until the earlier of (a) the end of the Strategic Alliance period (maximum period 18 months, unless extended); or (b) the date the Kalkaroo Option is exercised. Under the Strategic Alliance agreement, Havilah must spend at least 50% of the Upfront Investment on Strategic Alliance activities. The remainder can be applied to the Group’s other non-Strategic Alliance activities, including general working capital and corporate expenditures. OZ Exploration may elect to not exercise the Kalkaroo Option at any time during the 18 month Kalkaroo Option period provided 5,000 metres has been drilled on the Kalkaroo Tenements or a shortfall payment (metres not drilled multiplied by $400) is paid to the Group. The continuation of the Group as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient net cash inflows from operating and financing activities and manage the level of exploration and other expenditure within available cash resources. Should OZ Exploration elect to not exercise the Kalkaroo Option or terminate the Strategic Alliance agreement, the Directors consider that the going concern basis of accounting would still remain appropriate as the Group has the following additional funding options: • • • • the ability to issue share capital under the Corporations Act 2001 by a share purchase plan, share placement or rights issue; the option of farming out all or part of its assets; the option of selling interests in the Group’s assets; and the option of relinquishing or disposing of rights and interests in certain assets. In the event that the Group is unsuccessful in implementing one or more of the funding options listed above, such circumstances would indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt as to whether the Group will continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the Group’s financial statements and notes. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not continue as a going concern.

Earnings per Share The Group discloses relevant basic and diluted earnings per share data for its ordinary shares. Basic is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares on issue during the financial year. Diluted loss per ordinary share equates to basic loss per ordinary share because a loss per ordinary share is not considered dilutive for the purposes of calculating earnings per share in accordance with AASB 133 ‘Earnings per Share’. Loss per share attributable to equity holders of the Company: Basic and diluted loss per ordinary share Loss for financial year attributable to equity holders of the Company used to calculate basic and diluted loss per ordinary share Financial Year Ended 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 Cents (0.95) Cents (0.80) $ $ (2,927,574) (2,361,870) Weighted average number of ordinary shares on issue during financial year used in calculating basic and diluted loss per ordinary share 309,416,125 294,016,706 Page 34 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 4.

Results for the Financial Year (continued) Remuneration of External Auditor Remuneration received or due and receivable by the external auditor of the Company: Grant Thornton Audit Pty Ltd Audit or review of financial reports Total remuneration for audit and other assurance services Taxation services Total remuneration for other services Total remuneration of external auditor Financial Year Ended 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 $ $ 52,313 52,313 8,360 8,360 60,673 49,317 49,317 7,000 7,000 56,317 Significant Accounting Policy: Royalties Royalties are recognised on an accruals basis, which is generally at the time the amount can be reliably measured, in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement. Significant Accounting Policy: Government Grants Government grants receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognised as income in the reporting period in which the funds become receivable, in accordance with AASB 120 'Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosures of Government Assistance'. Grants relating to capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure are credited against the exploration and evaluation assets to which they relate to match the grants received with the expenditure the grants are intended to compensate, in accordance with AASB 120 'Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosures of Government Assistance'. Significant Accounting Policy: Impairment of Assets (except exploration & evaluation; financial assets) At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. Where the asset does not guarantee cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax interest rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash- generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash- generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried at fair value, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. Note 5. Segment Information The Group has a number of exploration tenements, mining leases, miscellaneous purposes licences and mineral claims in South Australia, which it manages on a portfolio basis. The decision to allocate resources to individual projects in the portfolio is predominantly based on available cash assets, technical data and the expectation of future commodity prices. The Group operates as one segment being exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in South Australia. This is the basis on which its internal reports are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (the ‘chief operating decision maker’) in monitoring, assessing performance, and in determining the allocation of resources. The results, assets and liabilities from this segment are equivalent to the consolidated financial statements.

Income Tax (a) Income Tax Recognised in Profit or Loss The prima facie consolidated tax on loss before income tax is reconciled to income tax expense as follows: Prima facie tax payable on loss before income tax, calculated at the Australian company tax rate of 25% (2021: 26%) Share-based payments expense Other Timing differences not bought to account Income tax expense Financial Year Ended 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 $ $ (731,894) (614,086) 112,322 - 619,572 - 99,095 (78,443) 593,434 - 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 $ $ (b) Deferred Tax Balances Deferred tax assets and (liabilities) are attributable to the following: Temporary differences Exploration and evaluation expenditure (9,443,729) (10,044,479) Plant and equipment Other financial assets Employee benefit provisions Other Transaction costs arising on ordinary shares issued Total Offset by deferred tax assets relating to operating losses Net deferred tax assets and (liabilities) unrecognised (83,632) 125,916 167,232 31,106 123,151 (11,585) 52,974 152,840 9,100 95,006 (9,079,956) (9,746,144) 9,079,956 9,746,144 - - (c) Unrecognised Deferred Tax Assets Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of the following items: Revenue tax losses Capital tax losses Total unrecognised deferred tax assets 10,654,514 9,672,065 - - 10,654,514 9,672,065 Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable, at this time, that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group can utilise the tax benefits. Page 37 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 6. Income Tax (continued) (d) Tax Consolidation Relevance of tax consolidation to the Group With effect from 1 July 2003, the Company and its wholly-owned Australian resident subsidiaries formed a tax- consolidated group and are taxed as a single entity. The head entity within the tax-consolidated group is Havilah Resources Limited. The members of the tax-consolidated group are identified at Note 20. Nature of tax funding arrangements and tax sharing agreements Entities within the tax-consolidated group have entered into a tax-funding arrangement and a tax-sharing arrangement with the head entity. Under the terms of the tax-funding arrangement, Havilah Resources Limited and each of the entities in the tax-consolidated group has agreed to pay a tax equivalent payment to or from the head entity based on the current tax liability or current tax asset of the entity. Such amounts are reflected in amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax-consolidated group. The tax-sharing agreement entered into between members of the tax-consolidated group provides for the determination of the allocation of income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations or if an entity should leave the tax-consolidated group. The effect of the tax-sharing agreement is that each member’s liability for tax payable by the tax-consolidated group is limited to the amount payable to the head entity under the tax-funding agreement. (e) Significant Accounting Policy: Income Taxes Tax expense recognised in profit or loss comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax not recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Calculation of current tax is based on Australian company tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred income taxes are calculated using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that the underlying tax loss or deductible temporary difference will be utilised against future taxable income. This is assessed based on the Group’s forecast of future operating results, adjusted for significant non-taxable income and expenses and specific limits on the use of any unused tax loss. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised in full and offset, where applicable, by deferred tax assets relating to operating losses. (f) Significant Accounting Estimates, Assumptions and Judgements: Deferred Tax Assets The Group’s ability to recognise deferred tax assets relies on assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits. These taxable profit estimates are based on estimated future production, commodity prices, exchange rates, operating costs, rehabilitation costs and capital expenditures. To the extent that future utilisation of these tax losses and temporary tax differences become probable, this could result in significant changes to deferred tax assets recognised, which would in turn impact future financial results.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables. Cash flows are included in the consolidated statement of cash flows on a gross basis.

Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure Cost brought forward Expenditure incurred during the financial period Government grant off set Total exploration and evaluation expenditure carried forward Intangible 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 $ 37,346,924 1,932,120 (230,776) 39,048,268 39,048,268 $ 35,569,590 1,777,334 - 37,346,924 37,346,924 A review of the Group’s exploration and evaluation tenement portfolio was conducted during the financial year. The Group did not recognise any impairment charges during the current or prior reporting period. The expenditure is carried forward on the basis that exploration and evaluation activities in the areas of interest have not reached a stage that permits reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the areas is continuing. The future recoverability of the carrying amount of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation or, alternatively, the sale of the respective areas of interest. Option to OZ Exploration to Purchase the Kalkaroo Copper-Gold-Cobalt Project On 16 May 2022 Havilah signed a conditional binding Terms Sheet with OZ Minerals relating to a Proposed Transaction comprising the key elements of the grant of an option to OZ Exploration to purchase the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project and a strategic alliance to explore for copper in Havilah’s extensive tenement holding in the Curnamona Province of northeastern South Australia. The Group also executed full form definitive agreements with OZ Exploration on 25 July 2022 that covered all aspects of the Proposed Transaction. The remaining outstanding condition precedent as at 31 July 2022 for the Proposed Transaction to proceed was approval of the Kalkaroo Transaction by Havilah shareholders. As described in Note 27(a), at the general meeting of shareholders held on 31 August 2022 Havilah shareholders overwhelmingly approved the Proposed Transaction and disposal of interest in the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project in accordance with the Kalkaroo Transaction. During the 18 month Kalkaroo Option period, OZ Exploration plans to undertake and sole fund a study and work program on the Kalkaroo Tenements (granted Mining Leases and Miscellaneous Purposes Licences) with the aim of progressing and completing an update to the current Kalkaroo project pre-feasibility study. The results of the study and work program will assist OZ Exploration in determining whether to exercise the Kalkaroo Option during the 18 month Kalkaroo Option period. If exercised, OZ Exploration would proceed with the purchase of 100% of the Kalkaroo copper-gold-cobalt project for a consideration payable to the Group of a cash payment of $205,000,000 at completion, and contingent consideration up to a maximum of $200,000,000 subject to the satisfaction of the relevant milestones. OZ Exploration may elect to not exercise the Kalkaroo Option at any time during the 18 month Kalkaroo Option period provided 5,000 metres has been drilled on the Kalkaroo Tenements or a shortfall payment (metres not drilled multiplied by $400) is paid to the Group. Exploration and evaluation expenditure carried forward of $21,512,604 relating to the Kalkaroo copper-gold- cobalt project has not been reclassified as held for sale as at 31 July 2022. The last day for OZ Exploration to exercise the Kalkaroo Option (unless extended) is 2 March 2024 and therefore Havilah management does not currently expect it to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within the next 12 months. Significant Accounting Policy: Non-current Assets Held for Sale Non-current assets are classified as held for sale in accordance with AASB 5 'Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations' if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the non-current asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Management must be committed to the sale, which should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within 12 months from the date of classification. Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Page 41 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 10. Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure (continued) Significant Accounting Policy: Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are recognised as exploration and evaluation expense in the reporting period in which they are incurred, except where the following conditions are satisfied: • • the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and at least one of the following conditions is also met: − − the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the end of the reporting period reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing. Exploration and evaluation assets are initially measured at cost, as an intangible, and include acquisition of rights to explore, costs of studies, exploration drilling, trenching and sampling and associated activities. General and administrative costs are only included in the measurement of exploration and evaluation costs where they relate directly to operational activities in a particular area of interest. Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances (as defined in AASB 6 ‘Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources’) suggest that the carrying amount of exploration and evaluation assets may exceed their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the exploration and evaluation assets (or the cash-generating unit(s) to which they have been allocated, being no larger than the relevant area of interest) is estimated to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior financial years. Cash flows associated with exploration and evaluation expenditure expensed are classified as operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows. Whereas cash flows associated with capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure are classified as investing activities. Where a decision is made to proceed with development in respect of a particular area of interest, the relevant exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and reclassified to mine development expenditure. Significant Accounting Estimates, Assumptions and Judgements: Exploration & Evaluation Expenditure The application of the Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure requires judgement in determining whether future economic benefits are likely either from future exploitation or sale or where activities have not reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of economically recoverable reserves. The determination of a JORC Mineral Resource is itself an estimation process that requires varying degrees of uncertainty depending on sub-classification and these estimates directly impact the point of deferral of exploration and evaluation expenditure. The deferral policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions about future events or circumstances, in particular whether an economically viable extraction operation can be established. Estimates and assumptions made may change if new information becomes available. Information on the reasonable existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves is progressively gained through geological analysis and interpretation, drilling activity and prospect evaluation during a normal exploration tenement term. A reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves can generally only be made, therefore, at the conclusion of those exploration and evaluation activities. To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, the relevant capitalised amount will be impaired in profit or loss and net assets will be reduced during the financial period in which this determination is made.

Significant Accounting Policy: Property, Plant and Equipment Pastoral leases are stated at cost less impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the pastoral lease. Pastoral leases in South Australia run for a term of 42 years. Subject to the Group being periodically assessed as meeting land management conditions, the pastoral lease may be renewed with a term of 42 years running from the date the most recent assessment was completed. The Group considers its pastoral lease rights to have an indefinite useful life and is not depreciated. Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. In the event that settlement of all or part of the purchase consideration is deferred, cost is determined by discounting the amounts payable in the future to their present value as at the date of acquisition. Freehold land and buildings is stated at cost less impairment and depreciation for buildings. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item.

Property, Plant and Equipment (continued) Significant Accounting Policy: Property, Plant and Equipment (continued) Depreciation is provided on plant & equipment and buildings. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis so as to write-down the net cost of each asset over its expected useful life to its estimated residual value. The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation: computer and office equipment: 2.5 – 10 years • • motor vehicles: 8 – 10 years • • • • • operating equipment: 2.5 – 10 years heavy equipment: 8 – 10 years rail, water and other infrastructure: 8 – 10 years portable dewatering infrastructure: 7 – 25 years buildings: 10 years The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period and adjusted if appropriate.

Deferred Grants Non-current Government grants obtained during financial year Total non-current deferred grants 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 $ - - $ 111,500 111,500 Significant Accounting Policy: Government Grants Government grants are assistance by government in the form of transfers of resources to the Group in return for past or future compliance with certain conditions relating to the operating activities of the Group. Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attached to them and the grant will be received. The Group’s projects at times may be supported by grants received from federal, state and/or local governments. Government grants received in relation to exploration and evaluation expenditure are initially deferred as a liability until the grant is spent. Once spent, it is then recognised as a reduction in the carrying value of the exploration and evaluation asset or income if the expenditure relating to the grant is expensed.

(c) Dividends Ordinary shares participate in dividends as declared and the proceeds on winding up of the Company in proportion to the number of fully paid ordinary shares held. There were no ordinary dividends declared or paid during the financial year by the Company (2021: $Nil). (d) Capital Management The Group manages its capital to ensure that the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to shareholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The capital structure of the Group consists of debt (which includes borrowings disclosed in Note 14), cash and cash equivalents, and equity attributable to equity holders of the Company comprising contributed equity, accumulated losses and reserves. Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, that is exploration and evaluation, the Board of Directors believes that due to the different stages of its projects, and their differing capital requirements and risks, it is not possible to define what funding method is optimal from the range of options available to the Group, namely: equity, debt, joint venture or sell down of project equity or some combination. At all times, the Group’s proposed activities are monitored to ensure optimal funding arrangements are put in place that are appropriate to the particular circumstance of each project or activity being undertaken. Page 47 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 18. Contributed Equity and Reserves (continued) (e) Significant Accounting Policies: Contributed Equity Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Contributed equity represents the fair value of ordinary shares that have been issued. Any transaction costs directly attributable to the issue of new ordinary shares are deducted from issued share capital, net of any related income tax. Reserves Within Equity Share-based payments reserve: is used to recognise the grant date fair value of share-based payments expense. Amounts are transferred out of this reserve and into accumulated losses when share options lapse. Buy-out reserve: resulted from the purchase of NU Energy Resources Pty Ltd (formerly, Curnamona Energy Pty Limited) and Geothermal Resources Pty Limited’s non-controlling interests by Havilah Resources Limited. It represented the difference between the consideration paid and the carrying value of the non-controlling interest. Note 19. Financial Instruments (including Financial Risk Management) The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk; credit risk; and liquidity risk. The Group’s financial risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. The Group uses different methods to measure the different types of financial risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rates and equity price. The overall financial risk management strategy of the Group is governed by the Board of Directors, and is primarily focused on ensuring the Group is able to finance its business plans, whilst minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed on a periodic basis to reflect changes in market conditions and Group activities. The totals for each category of financial instruments in the consolidated statement of financial position are: Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Bank term deposits Shares in a listed ASX entity (at FVTPL) Financial liabilities Trade and other payables Borrowings Other financial liabilities Note 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 $ $ 7(a) 1,610,201 4,007,410 8 12 12 13 14 16 98,714 60,000 240,917 434,930 104,084 - 62,996 60,000 540,834 675,953 63,833 158,706 The Group had no off-balance sheet financial assets or financial liabilities during the financial year or prior financial year. (a) Market Risk (i) Commodity Price Risk The Group does not currently have any projects in production and has no current exposure to commodity price fluctuations. Page 48 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 19. Financial Instruments (including Financial Risk Management) (continued) (a) Market Risk (continued) (ii) Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of financial assets and financial liabilities will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as it earns interest at floating rates from a portion of its cash and cash equivalents. When relevant, the Group places a portion of its funds into short-term fixed interest bank deposits that provide short-term certainty over the interest rate earned. The Group had no interest rate hedging in place as at 31 July 2022 (or 31 July 2021). The Group’s exposures to interest rates on financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. Interest rate sensitivity analysis This sensitivity should not be used to forecast the future effect of movements in interest rates on future cash flows. If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher or lower at the end of the reporting period, and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s loss would decrease by $8,351 and increase by $40 respectively (2021: decrease $20,337 and increase by $90). This is attributable to interest rates on bank term deposits and trading accounts. (iii) Equity Price Risk The Group is exposed to equity price risks arising from its equity investment in fully paid ordinary shares held in ASX listed Auteco Minerals Ltd. Equity investments are held for strategic rather than trading purposes. Equity price sensitivity analysis The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to equity price risks at the end of the reporting period. This sensitivity should not be used to forecast the future effect of movements in equity price on future profit or loss. At the end of the reporting period, if Auteco Minerals Ltd’s last traded price on the ASX had been 5% higher or lower the Group’s loss would decrease/increase by $12,046 (2021: $27,042). (b) Credit Risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from activities. The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any counterparty, other than bank term deposits and trading accounts with the Group’s bank. The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparty is an Australian bank with an investment grade credit rating assigned by international credit rating agencies. Where commercially practical, the Group seeks to limit the amount of credit exposure to any one bank or financial institution. The Group is exposed to concentration of credit risk in relation to bank term deposits and trading accounts held with the National Australia Bank Limited, the maximum exposure as at 31 July 2022 was $1,670,201 (31 July 2021: $4,067,410). The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the consolidated financial statements and relevant notes, net of any allowances for losses and/or impairments, represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of the value of any collateral obtained. Page 49 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 19. Financial Instruments (including Financial Risk Management) (continued) (c) Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, which has built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group’s short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by ensuring there are sufficient funds available to meet financial obligations on a day-to-day basis and to meet unexpected liquidity needs in the normal course of business. Emphasis is placed on ensuring there is sufficient funding in place to meet the ongoing requirements of the Group’s exploration and evaluation activities. Liquidity and interest risk tables The following tables detail the Group’s remaining contractual maturity and interest rate risk for its financial assets and financial liabilities at the end of the financial year. Financial assets 2022 Non-interest bearing Variable interest rate 2021 Non-interest bearing Variable interest rate Financial liabilities 2022 Non-interest bearing Fixed interest rate 2021 Non-interest bearing Variable interest rate Fixed interest rate Weighted average effective interest rate Less than 1 year 1 to 2 years % - 0.0 - 0.0 $ 339,631 1,670,201 603,830 4,067,410 $ - - - - Weighted average effective interest rate Less than 1 year 1 to 4 years % - 3.57 - 7.9 4.1 $ 434,930 62,360 675,953 158,706 10,376 $ - 41,724 - - 53,457 (d) Fair Value Measurement of Assets and Liabilities The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are not materially different to their carrying amount. As the shares in a listed ASX entity (at FVTPL) are publicly traded listed securities (and traded actively on the ASX) the fair value as at 31 July 2022 of $240,917 (31 July 2021: $540,834) was based on the shares last quoted sales price (Level 1) at the end of the reporting period. The Group did not measure any financial assets or financial liabilities on a non-recurring basis as at 31 July 2022 (or 31 July 2021). There have been no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy used in measuring the fair value of financial instruments. There have also been no changes in the classification of financial assets as a result of a change in the purpose or use of those assets. Page 50 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 19. Financial Instruments (including Financial Risk Management) (continued) Significant Accounting Policy: Financial Instruments The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial asset or financial liability and is determined at the time of initial recognition. All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within finance costs, interest income or other financial items, except for impairment of trade receivables that is presented within other expenses. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statement of financial position and for presentation in the consolidated statement of cash flows comprise cash on hand, cash at banks and short-term bank deposits that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value. Trade and other receivables Receivables, which normally have 30-day terms, are generally non-interest bearing amounts. They are recognised initially at the amount of the consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, when they are recognised initially at fair value. The Group holds receivables with the objective to collect the contractual cash flows. They are presented as current assets, unless collection is not expected for more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. For receivables expected to be settled within 12 months, these are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any loss allowance. For receivables expected to be settled later than 12 months, these are subsequently measured at amortised cost based on discounted cash flows using an effective interest rate, less any loss allowance. Cash flows relating to non-current receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting would be immaterial. FVTPL (Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss) Certain shares in a listed ASX entity held by the Group are classified as being financial assets at FVTPL. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognised directly in profit or loss for the reporting period. Fair value has been determined based on quoted market prices (Level 1). Impairment of financial assets The Group has applied the AASB 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ general model approach to measuring expected credit losses for all financial assets. While cash and cash equivalents are also subject impairment requirements of AASB 9 ‘Financial Instruments’, the identified impairment loss was considered not significant given the counterparty and/or the short maturity. the to When required, the carrying amount of the relevant financial asset is reduced through the use of a loss allowance account and the amount of any loss is recognised in profit or loss. When measuring expected credit losses, balances are reviewed based on available external credit ratings, historical loss rates and/or the days past due. Classification and measurement of financial liabilities The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, and borrowing. Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Group classified a financial liability as FVTPL. They are presented as current liabilities, unless payment is not due for more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for financial liabilities classified as FVTPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss. All interest-related charges and, if applicable, changes in an instrument’s fair value that are reported in profit or loss are included within finance costs.

Significant Accounting Policy: Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of the Company as at 31 July 2022 and the results of all subsidiaries for the financial year then ended. Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed, where necessary, to ensure consistency with the accounting policies applied by the Group. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated on consolidation. Unrealised losses are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred.

Joint Arrangements The Group undertakes a number of business activities through joint arrangements, which exist when two or more parties have joint control. Joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures, based on the contractual rights and obligations between the parties to the arrangement. (a) Joint Venture Arrangements The Group had no joint venture arrangements as at 31 July 2022 (or 31 July 2021). (b) Joint Operation Arrangements The Group’s interests in joint operation arrangements are as follows: Prospect Hill farm-in agreement Pernatty Lagoon farm-in agreement 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 Earning up to 85% Earning up to 85% 10%, carried interest 10%, carried interest There are no amounts (2021: $Nil) represented in the Group’s share of assets, liabilities, revenues or expenses in respect of joint operations. There are $Nil (31 July 2021: $Nil) exploration expenditure commitments in respect of joint operations. Contingent liabilities in respect of joint operations are set out in Note 23(a). Prospect Hill farm-in agreement On 26 March 2007 the Group entered into a farm-in agreement with Teale & Associates Pty Ltd and Estate of Adrian Mark Brewer relating to exploration on EL5891 that allows the Group to earn a participating interest in the tenement. The Group undertook to fund an exploration program on the tenement over a 3 year period from 26 March 2007 to earn a 65% interest in the tenement, and this has been met. The Group is able to earn an additional 20% interest in the tenement by completing a bankable feasibility study, which has not been met. Thereafter Teale & Associates Pty Ltd and the Estate of Adrian Mark Brewer may contribute their 15% share of development costs or revert to a net smelter return royalty. Pernatty Lagoon farm-in agreement On 15 October 2004 the Group entered into a farm-in agreement with Red Metal Limited relating to exploration on EL6014. Under the above farm-in agreement, the Group’s interest was converted into a 10% carried interest. Significant Accounting Policy: Joint Arrangements A joint operation is an arrangement in which the Group shares joint control, primarily via contractual arrangements with other parties. In a joint operation, the Group has rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement. This includes situations where the parties benefit from the joint activity through a share of the output, rather than by receiving a share of the results of trading. In relation to the Group’s interest in a joint operation, the Group recognises: its share of assets and liabilities; revenue from the sale of its share of the output and its share of any revenue generated from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and its share of expenses. All such amounts are measured in accordance with the terms of the arrangement, which is usually in proportion to the Group’s interest in the joint operation.

Commitments (a) Exploration Expenditure Commitments The Group has certain obligations to perform exploration work and expend minimum amounts of money, known as exploration expenditure commitments, on South Australian exploration tenements it holds. The exploration expenditure commitments of the Group will vary from time to time, subject to statutory approval. The terms of current and future farm-out arrangements (which are typical of the normal operating activities of the Group), the grant or renewal or expiry, and Amalgamated Expenditure Agreements (‘AEA’) negotiated with the DEM (the regulator in South Australia), will also alter the expenditure commitments of the Group. licences, changes licence areas at relinquishment of to At the end of the reporting period the DEM and the Group were in discussions about future AEA terms for the 2 year period from 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2023, which normally takes into account such factors as past performance, the prevailing exploration licence (‘EL’) cumulative expenditure commitments, proposed exploration work programs, and ground accessibility. Previous AEAs have typically included relinquishment of a minimum of 10% of the combined relevant tenement areas at the end of the 2 years if the expenditure commitments are met. At this stage, it is considered unlikely that future AEA conditions would be more favourable in terms of overall expenditure and relinquishment requirements than those that have applied in the past. It is likely that the final outcome may also be affected by new South Australian mining regulations that have recently come into force. The minimum expenditure commitment on other mineral exploration tenements not covered by AEAs is approximately: Not later than 1 year Total non-AEA exploration expenditure commitments 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 $ 190,000 190,000 $ 190,000 190,000 (b) Kalkaroo Mining Lease and Miscellaneous Purposes Licence Rental Commitments Non-cancellable Kalkaroo Mining Lease ('ML') and Miscellaneous Purposes Licence ('MPL') rentals not provided for in the consolidated financial statements and payable: Not later than 1 year Later than 1 year but not later than 5 years Later than 5 years Total MLs and MPLs rental commitments 31 July 2022 31 July 2021 $ 137,367 549,468 1,648,405 2,335,240 $ 131,539 526,156 1,710,014 2,367,709 (c) Kalkaroo Station Pastoral Lease Rental Commitment Non-cancellable annual Kalkaroo Station pastoral lease rentals for future financial years have not been provided for in the consolidated financial statements. The Kalkaroo Station pastoral lease rental payment is currently $6,068 (2021: $5,157) per annum, and will be payable annually for an indefinite period of time.

Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets By their nature, contingencies will only be resolved when one or more uncertain future events occur or fail to occur. Determination of contingent liabilities disclosed requires the exercise of significant judgement regarding the outcome of future events. (a) Contingent Liabilities Future production The Group has a contingent liability to Glencore International AG in relation to payments based on 10% of the Group’s share of any future mining profits from the Kalkaroo project, until the total amount paid reaches $7,000,000. There is no indexation. Production royalties The Group has a liability for royalties contingent on projects advancing into production, see notes to Tenement Schedule on page 67 for relevant royalty arrangements. In addition, Mining Leases held by the Group are subject to the payment of production royalties to the South Australian government, the rate of such royalties varies depending upon the minerals produced and sold and other factors. Native title During December 2018, a NTMA (Native Title Mining Agreement) for Kalkaroo was executed between the Ngadjuri Adnyamathanha Wilyakali Native Title Aboriginal Corporation (‘NAWNTAC’) and Havilah. Annual floor payments, adjusted for CPI (consumer price index), are due to NAWNTAC from when the Kalkaroo project reaches commercial production. In addition, annual profits payment based on a percentage of EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation), if EBITDA is positive, are due to NAWNTAC from when the Kalkaroo project reaches commercial production, but are capped until the cumulative EBITDA exceeds the cumulative capital costs of the project. The NTMA also includes employment, training, and business development opportunities for the native title holders over the life of the mine. Native title claims also exist over all exploration tenements in South Australia in which the Group has interests. The Group is unable to determine the prospects for success or otherwise of the native title claims on these exploration tenements and, in any event, whether or not and to what extent the native title claims may significantly affect the Group or its projects, as such any contingent liability is unknown. Bank guarantees The Group has provided restricted cash deposits of $60,000 as security for a number of unconditional irrevocable bank guarantees for the provision of various rehabilitation bonds to the Minister for Energy and Mining and security for a purchase card facility provided to the Group by its banker. Additionally, the Group has utilised $100,000 of a non-cash backed National Australia Bank Limited guarantee facility of $500,000 as security for the following unconditional irrevocable bank guarantee: a rehabilitation bond issued by Geothermal Resources Pty Limited for $100,000 to the Minister for Energy and Mining. Joint operations In accordance with normal industry practice, the Group has entered into joint operations with other parties for the purpose of exploring and evaluating its exploration tenements. If a participant to a joint operation defaults and does not contribute its share of joint operation obligations, then the remaining joint operation participants are jointly and severally liable to meet the obligations of the defaulting participant. In this event, the interest in the exploration tenements held by the defaulting participant may be redistributed to the remaining joint operation participants. In the event of a default, a contingent liability exists in respect of expenditure commitments due to be met by the Group in respect of the defaulting joint operation participant. (b) Contingent Assets Pursuant to an agreement with Consolidated Mining & Civil Pty Ltd, the Group has a contingent payment of $3,800,000 due to it on the development of the North Portia mine and that mine achieving production revenue of $3,500,000. There is no indexation. The Group’s exposure is secured by a registered charge over Mining Lease ML6346 and the assets of Benagerie Gold & Copper Pty Ltd.

Share-based Payments (continued) Share options outstanding at the end of the financial year had a weighted average exercise price of $0.26 (31 July 2021: $0.26), a range of exercise prices from $0.22 to $0.28 (31 July 2021: $0.22 to $0.36), with a weighted average remaining contractual life of 633 days (31 July 2021: 492 days). Share-based payments expense is summarised as follows: Director share options Employee share options Total share-based payments expense Financial Year Ended 31 July 2021 31 July 2022 $ (410,473) (38,814) (449,287) $ - (381,135) (381,135) Significant Accounting Policy: Share-based Payments Equity-settled share-based payments expense relates to the value of share options allocated to particular financial periods in accordance with AASB 2 ‘Share-based Payment’, which requires the fair value of a share option at grant date to be allocated equally over the period from grant date to vesting date based on the Group’s estimate of ordinary shares that will eventually vest, adjusted for not meeting the vesting condition. For share options that vest immediately, the value is disclosed as an expense immediately. Fair value is measured by use of the binomial option pricing method. Share options do not represent cash payments and share options granted may or may not be exercised by the holder. Significant Accounting Estimates, Assumptions and Judgements: Share-based Payments The share options issued by Havilah during the financial year were priced using a binomial option pricing model, the assumptions and inputs used in estimating fair value at grant date of the unlisted share options were: Grant and vesting date 21 December 2021 21 December 2021 Share price at grant date $0.165 $0.165 Exercise price $0.25 $0.265 Expected volatility 71.98% 71.98% Share option life 2.36 years 3 years Expected dividends - - Risk-free interest rate 1.64% 1.64% The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of ordinary shares that will eventually vest. Historical volatility was the basis for determining expected share price volatility as it is assumed that this is indicative of future trends, which may not eventuate. Note 26.

Page 61 Material uncertainty related to going concern We draw attention to Note 2 in the consolidated financial statements, which indicates that the Group incurred a net loss of $2,927,574, and net cash outflows from operating and investing activities of $4,819,480 during the year ended 31 July 2022. As stated in Note 2, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report. Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Exploration and evaluation assets – Note 10 At 31 July 2022 the carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets was $39,048,268. In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources, the Group is required to assess at each reporting date if there are any triggers for impairment which may suggest the carrying value is in excess of the recoverable value. The process undertaken by management to assess whether there are any impairment triggers in each area of interest involves an element of management judgement. This area is a key audit matter due to the significant judgement involved in determining the existence of impairment triggers. Our procedures included, amongst others: • • • • • obtaining the management reconciliation of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure and agreeing to the general ledger; reviewing management’s area of interest considerations against AASB 6; conducting a detailed review of management’s assessment of trigger events prepared in accordance with AASB 6 including; − tracing projects to statutory registers, exploration licences and third party confirmations to determine whether a right of tenure existed; − enquiry of management regarding its intentions to carry out exploration and evaluation activity in the relevant exploration area, including review of management’s budgeted expenditure; − understanding whether any data exists to suggest that the carrying value of these exploration and evaluation assets are unlikely to be recovered through development or sale; evaluating the competence, capabilities and objectivity of management’s experts in the evaluation of potential impairment triggers; and assessing the appropriateness of the related financial statement disclosures. Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 July 2022, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. #8598596v2 Grant Thornton Australia Limited Page 62 In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Directors’ for the financial report The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

Page 68 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 KEY RISKS The risks described below are the key risks identified by the Board as being relevant to the Group and its operations as at the date of this Annual Report and reasonably anticipated by the Board. They may affect the future operating and financial performance and financial position of the Group along with the trading price of Havilah’s ordinary shares and dividends (if any) paid on them in the future. The Board has endeavoured (and will continue to do so) to take steps to safeguard the Group from, and to mitigate the Group’s exposure to, these risks. It is important to note that the specific and general risk factors listed below are not an exhaustive list of all the risks relevant to the Group. (a) Specific Risk Factors Exploration risk Key to the Group’s financial performance is to have success in exploring for and locating commercial mineral deposits. Exploration is subject to technical risks and uncertainty of outcome. The Group may not find any or sufficient reserves and resources to commercialise which would adversely impact the financial performance of the Group. Operational risk Adverse weather condition events, unforeseen increases in establishment costs, mechanical failures, human errors, industrial disputes or encountering unusual or unexpected geological formations and other unforeseen events, could lead to increased costs or delay to the Group’s activities and exploration programs, or restrictions on its ability to carry out its present exploration programs. The Group will mitigate this risk by, amongst other things, taking out appropriate insurance in line with industry practice. Access to funding for operations risk Exploration and development require significant capital and operational expenditure. To deliver future growth, the Group may require funding for future commitments. There can be no assurance that the Group will be able to obtain funding as and when required on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. Failure to obtain funding on a timely basis and on reasonably acceptable terms may also cause the Group to miss out on new opportunities, delay or cancel projects, or to relinquish or forfeit rights in relation to the Group’s assets, adversely impacting its operational and financial performance. Regulatory risk The Group’s assets are in Australia. The enactment of new legislation or adoption of new requirements of a governmental authority may restrict or affect the Group's right to conduct exploration and development or the manner in which such activities can be conducted. The Australian political situation may also adversely affect the country’s investment environment. Key person dependence risk The future success of the Group depends, to a significant extent, upon the continued services of the members of the management team. There can be no assurance that the Group will be able to retain or hire all personnel necessary for the development and operation of its business. The loss of senior managers could harm the Group’s business and its future prospects. Reserves and resources risk Estimating reserves and resources are subject to significant uncertainties associated with technical data and the interpretation of that data, future commodity prices, and development and operating costs. There can be no guarantee that the Group will successfully produce the tonnage of minerals that it estimates as reserves, or that resources will be successfully converted to reserves. Estimates may alter significantly or become more uncertain when new information becomes available, for example additional drilling results. As estimates change, potential development and production plans may also vary. Downward revision of reserves and resources estimates may adversely affect Group operational or financial performance. Development risk In the event that the Group is successful in locating mineral deposits through exploration, or purchases a development project, then that development could be delayed or be unsuccessful for a number of reasons including extreme weather, unanticipated operational occurrences, failure to obtain necessary approvals (including energy and water supply), insufficient funds, a drop in commodity prices, supply chain failure, unavailability of appropriate labour, or an increase in costs. If one or more of these occurrences has a material impact, then the Group’s operational and financial performance may be negatively affected. Page 69 ASX CODE: HAV HAVILAH RESOURCES LIMITED ABN: 39 077 435 520 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022 KEY RISKS (continued) Environmental risk The mining industry has become subject to increasing environmental responsibility and liability. Current and future environmental legislation and regulations may impose significant environmental obligations on the Group. The Group intends to continue to conduct its activities in a responsible manner that minimises its impact on the environment, and in accordance with applicable laws. Commodity price risk The price at which the Group can sell its product will have a material influence on the financial performance of the Group. It is impossible to predict future commodity prices with confidence and the factors which impact it include, but are not limited to, global political situations, military conflicts, technological changes, output controls and global commodity consumption, which are all outside the control of the Group. A material and extended fall in realised commodity prices may have an adverse impact on the Group’s financial performance, including potentially a reduction in the quantity of stated reserves. Counterparty exposure and joint operation risk The financial performance of the Group is subject to its various counterparties or joint operation participants continuing to perform their respective obligations under various contracts. If one of its counterparties or joint operation participants fails to adequately perform their contractual obligations, this may result in loss of earnings, termination of particular contracts, disputes and/or litigation of which could impact on the Group's financial performance. COVID-19 risk New COVID-19 variants and infection rates across the community continue to pose a risk. Given the ongoing uncertainty relating to the duration and extent of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the impact it may have on the demand and price for commodities (including copper and gold), on our suppliers and workforce, and on global financial markets, the Group continues to face uncertainties that may impact on its operating activities, financing activities and/or financial results. (b) General Risk Factors • Investment risks, such as changes in the Group’s own assessment of the economics of developing its assets or the market perception of the value of the Group's assets and Havilah ordinary shares; • Share market and liquidity risks involved in the listing and trading of shares on the ASX; • Economic, political and social factors, including activism, and the effect on the market price of ordinary shares of movements in equity markets, commodity prices, currency fluctuations and interest rates, and local and global political and economic conditions; • Epidemics and pandemics; • Geopolitical instability, including international hostilities and acts of terrorism, the response to epidemics and pandemics, and travel restrictions; • Circumstances requiring the Group to change its objectives and/or strategy; • Negotiations with native title holders being unfavourable or unsuccessful; • The Australian economy deteriorating (including the adverse impacts of, and the responses to, inflation); and • Stock market sentiment fluctuations impacting on the Havilah share price.
