HIGHLIGHTS • Pinnacle’s retained project portfolio – the Capel Mineral Sands Project (E70/6372, Western Australia), the Wirrulla Rare Earth Element (REE) and Uranium Project (EL 6968, South Australia) and the 75%-owned Adina East Lithium Project in Québec, Canada – was maintained in good standing throughout the Quarter, with all statutory obligations met • The Company continued its strategic review of the retained projects, assessing farm- out, joint venture and other transaction structures • Pinnacle reviewed and analysed a number of new project acquisition opportunities during the Quarter across critical minerals, precious metals and battery minerals in Australia and offshore. Each opportunity was assessed against the Company’s technical, commercial and jurisdictional criteria. No opportunity progressed to a binding agreement and, accordingly, no announcement was required to be made • Exploration and evaluation expenditure of A$68,000 was incurred during the Quarter, comprising tenement maintenance, statutory holding costs and technical review work. No field exploration activities were undertaken and there were no mining production or development activities • Pinnacle ended the Quarter with cash and cash equivalents of A$2,352,000, no debt and no financing facilities, representing an estimated 11.36 quarters of funding based on the Quarter’s relevant outgoings Chairman’s Comment – Stephen Ross “We tested a number of new project opportunities during the Quarter, none of which met our criteria to increase shareholder value. That discipline is deliberate as it is how we protect shareholders’ capital in a crowded market for critical minerals assets. Costs remained low, our retained projects at Capel, Wirrulla and Adina East were kept in excellent standing, and the balance sheet remains strong and debt-free. We will apply the same discipline as we keep testing new opportunities and progress the farm-out, joint venture and partnership options across our existing portfolio”. www.pinnacleminerals.com.au 2 Overview of the Quarter Activity during the June 2026 Quarter was limited to maintaining the Company’s projects in good standing, managing its cost base, and assessing opportunities both within the existing portfolio and by way of new acquisitions. No transactions were entered into during the Quarter, no securities were issued, and no matters arose that required disclosure under ASX Listing Rule 3.1. The Company made no announcements to ASX during the Quarter other than periodic reports required under the Listing Rules. The strategic review, which commenced in the March 2026 Quarter, continued during the Reporting Period. The review considers how each of the Capel, Wirrulla and Adina East Projects can be advanced with limited capital, and covers farm-out arrangements, joint ventures, partnerships, divestment and, in respect of Adina East, options relating to the Company’s 75% interest. Preliminary discussions were held with a number of parties during the Quarter. None of those discussions had progressed to a stage requiring disclosure as at the date of this report, and there is no certainty that any transaction will proceed. In parallel, the Board and management assessed a number of new project acquisition opportunities presented to the Company during the Quarter. Opportunities were sourced from corporate advisers, technical consultants and direct approaches from vendors, and spanned critical minerals, precious metals and battery minerals in Australia, North America and other established mining jurisdictions. Each opportunity was screened against the same criteria: geological merit and the quality of existing data; the size of the target relative to the Company’s market capitalisation; jurisdictional, tenure and permitting risk; the capital and time required to test the primary target; the commercial terms and consideration structure proposed by the vendor; and any legacy liabilities, encumbrances or rehabilitation obligations. Opportunities passing initial screening were taken to further technical and commercial review, including desktop geological review of historical data and, where warranted, preliminary title and legal enquiries. None of the opportunities reviewed during the Quarter met the Company’s criteria and no binding agreement was entered into. No legally binding obligations were incurred and no exclusivity or option fees were paid. Costs associated with this work were limited and are included within administration and corporate costs in the Appendix 5B. The Company will continue to review opportunities and will transact only where the Board is satisfied that the terms are in shareholders’ interests. The Company has no residual obligations arising from the terminated U.S. critical minerals binding heads of agreement. Capel Mineral Sands Project (Western Australia) The Capel Mineral Sands Project (E70/6372) (“Capel”), located in the South West of Western Australia, covers a palaeo-shoreline previously explored by Iluka Resources and Tronox Ltd (NYSE: TROX). www.pinnacleminerals.com.au 3 Capel was maintained in good standing during the June 2026 Quarter, with all statutory obligations, expenditure commitments, and rent and rates payments met. No field activities were undertaken during the Quarter. The Company is assessing options to advance the project with limited capital, including potential farm-out or joint venture arrangements. Pinnacle completed a 2,067m, 95-hole aircore drill program in 2024, targeting two shoreline trends, aimed at defining an ilmenite-dominant heavy mineral resource with accessory zircon and rutile. Key historical intercepts include: • 21m at 3.3% HM from surface (RB007) • 21m at 2.6% HM from surface (RB001) • 18m at 2.2% HM from surface (RB003) Capel benefits from favourable infrastructure access, being located on predominantly cleared farmland with close proximity to existing roads, power and port facilities, supporting potential development optionality. With two companies, Doral and Tronox, operating heavy mineral sands mines nearby, the project is well located. Wirrulla REE and Uranium Project (South Australia) The Wirrulla Project (EL 6968) (“Wirrulla”) covers a 957 km² tenement on South Australia’s Northern Eyre Peninsula, and is considered prospective for rare earth elements and uranium. Wirrulla hosts shallow clay-hosted REE mineralisation and is underlain by a circular magnetic feature, with historical petrographic analysis indicating the presence of a pre-metamorphic ijolitic intrusive potentially associated with carbonatites. Wirrulla was maintained in good standing during the June 2026 Quarter, with all statutory obligations met and no field activities undertaken. The Company is assessing options for the project, including potential farm-out or joint venture arrangements. www.pinnacleminerals.com.au 4 Figure 1: Wirrulla Project (EL 6968) tenement package, highlighting the Narlaby Palaeochannel and Cobra Resources (LSE:COBR) Boland Ionic REE Project Adina East: Lithium (Canada) The Adina East Lithium Project (“Adina East”) is located in Québec’s James Bay region, encompassing 147 claims totalling 72.7km² (7,274.47 ha). Pinnacle holds a 75% interest through Pinnacle Minerals James Bay Ltd. Adina East is strategically positioned adjacent to an interpreted extension of the Trieste greenstone belt and sits within a highly active lithium exploration corridor. Adina East is within Category-III lands and does not carry restrictions relating to mining or exploration under the James Bay Agreement with the Cree Nation. The Adina East Lithium Project adjoins Loyal Metals Ltd’s (ASX: LLM) Trieste Project, where spodumene-bearing dykes have returned intercepts, including 31.8m at 2.2% Li2O, less than 6km from the Adina East boundary, and Li-FT Power Ltd’s (TSXV: LIFT) Tilly Project, where swarming pegmatites are interpreted to extend into the Adina East tenure. www.pinnacleminerals.com.au 5 No on-ground exploration was conducted at Adina East during the June 2026 Quarter, and the claims comprising the project were maintained in good standing. The project is being held while the Company assesses its options, including the introduction of a partner, and determines the timing of future field activities.
