The information in this Prospectus that relates to the reporting of the Mineral Hill Mine Mineral Resource

Mr. Stuart Hayward is a full-time employee of Kingston Resources Limited. Mr. Hayward has sufficient
experience relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the
activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the
‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’ (the
JORC Code). Mr. Hayward confirms that the information in this Prospectus is an accurate representation
of the available data and studies for the material mining project and consents to the inclusion in this
Prospectus of the matters based upon the information in the form and context in which it appears. The
Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Person’s findings are presented
have not been materially modified from the original report.
Competent Person – Mineral Hill Ore Reserve
The Competent Person signing off on the overall underground SOZ Ore Reserves Estimate is Mr Steven
Weckert BE ME (Min) CP, of Australian Mine Design and Development Pty Ltd, who is a Member of the
Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and who has sufficient relevant experience in operations

Metals equivalents
This Prospectus quotes metal equivalent grades defined by the Company. Price assumptions used are
based on market consensus forecasts with adjustments to account for reasonable prospects for eventual
economic extraction (RPEEE), as guided by JORC reporting guidelines. Gold equivalent (AuEq) and
copper equivalent (CuEq) conversion factors are used within this Prospectus and are calculated by
multiplying the grades for each contributing metal by their respective metal price and recovery and
dividing by the multiplication of the primary metal’s price and recovery (gold or copper for AuEq and
CuEq respectively).
Metallurgical recoveries are based on historical production (2010-2016) as well as recent metallurgical
test work and are applied to the Resource and Reserve calculated grades for each commodity. The
2432078 - 32413649 6
Company is of the opinion that all the elements included in the metal equivalent calculations have a
demonstrated potential to be recovered and sold.

Chair’s letter
25 June 2026
Dear Shareholders,
I would like to introduce this Prospectus and invite you to take up your Entitlement of New Shares in
Kingston Resources Limited (Entitlement Offer).
As announced on 18 June 2026, the Directors wish to provide the opportunity for Eligible Shareholders
to invest in New Shares under the Entitlement Offer. The Entitlement Offer is a non-renounceable rights
issue of 1 New Share for every 4 Shares held at an issue price of $0.035 per New Share (Issue Price),
to raise approximately $8.47 million (before costs of the Entitlement Offer). The Issue Price represents
a 12.5% discount to the Share price of $0.04 as at the close of trading on Thursday, 11 June 2026, being
the last trading day prior the Company’s announcement on 18 June 2026 of the Placement and its
intention to carry out the Entitlement Offer.
As also announced on 18 June 2026, the Company has undertaken a placement of 125,714,286 new
Shares (Placement Shares) to qualified institutional, sophisticated and professional investors, including
the Company’s largest shareholder, Farjoy Pty Ltd, at the Issue Price, to raise a total of $4.4 million
(before costs) (Placement). The Placement settled on 24 June 2026 with Shares having issued on 25
June 2026. Accordingly, Shares issued under the Placement are issued prior to the Record Date and
recipients of those Placement Shares will be entitled to participate in the Entitlement Offer with respect
to those Placement Shares.
Funds from the Placement, Entitlement Offer, Kingston’s existing cash reserves and the incoming
Misima payment on 11 July 2026 will be applied towards a 25,000m drilling program, plant expansion
studies, redundancies and fleet demobilisations, care and maintenance costs, general working capital
purposes and meet the costs of the Entitlement Offer as per the ASX announcement dated 11 June
2026. That work plan is focused on upgrading and expanding the existing Mineral Resource and Ore
Reserve to support a longer mine life and larger production base to underpin a future operational restart.
This will involve:
• a 25,000m drilling program at Mineral Hill, comprising extensional, infill, step out and near mine
exploration; and
• progression of expansion studies for the existing processing facilities aimed at expanding the
existing 350ktpa CIL and flotation processing facility, with most key permits and approvals held
to enable expansion to 700ktpa.
Some of the Directors intend to take up their entitlement to New Shares. Farjoy has also given a firm
commitment to accept its Entitlement under the Entitlement Offer.
A personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form accompanies this Prospectus and sets out the number
of New Shares you are entitled to subscribe for as an Eligible Shareholder (Entitlement). Entitlements
to New Shares can be accepted in full or in part by making payment of Acceptance Money by BPAY®
or EFT in accordance with the instructions set out below and on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form.
Subscription money for the New Shares must be received by the Company at its Share Registry by the
Closing Date. Please refer to the timetable for the important dates of the Offer.
The Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable and therefore your Entitlements will not be tradeable on the
ASX or otherwise transferable. Eligible Shareholders are able to apply for additional New Shares, up to
a maximum of 100% of their Entitlement, as Top-Up Shares under the Shortfall Offer.
Argonaut Securities Pty Limited is the Lead Manager of the Entitlement Offer and the Placement and
Argonaut Corporate Finance Limited is the underwriter for the EntitlementSyntax Error: Unknown form type
Offer. The Entitlement Offer
is fully underwritten, with Farjoy Pty Ltd providing sub-underwriting of up to $4,315,090 in addition to its
participation in the Placement and the acceptance of its Entitlements.
2432078 - 32413649 9
On behalf of the Directors, I invite you to consider this investment opportunity and thank you for your
continued support.
Yours sincerely,
Mick Wilkes
Chair
Kingston Resources Limited
