Announcement PDF ASX: SKY ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 1 October 2024 TALLEBUNG TIN PROJECT, NSW – DRILLING UPDATE WIDE, HIGHER-GRADE TIN INTERCEPTS CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT GROWTH POTENTIAL  Broad, higher-grade tin intersections returned from in-fill drilling under the historic southern open pit at Tallebung, with results including: TBRC114: 29m @ 0.50% tin & 33.8g/t silver from 173m, including: 7m @ 1.23% tin & 106g/t silver from 181m. TBRC115: 11m @ 0.43% tin & 49.7g/t silver from 85m, including: 6m @ 0.71% tin & 56.6g/t silver from 85m.  Results demonstrate excellent continuity of another higher-grade zone within the Tallebung deposit. This is in addition to the previously discovered high-grade zones, including the southern extension zone – for which results were released previously1.  The results of this program will improve the geological models for the Tallebung Project, with the aim of significantly increasing the size, grade and confidence of the current MRE2 in preparation for releasing potential mining studies. SKY Managing Director Oliver Davies commented: “These higher-grade intercepts once again show the potential for the development of these areas as SKY continues to in-fill and expand the existing tin Resources at Tallebung. These results are particularly significant given that a tin grade of 0.50% is equivalent to over 1.5% copper, highlighting the value in these intercepts – that is before beneficiation via TOMRA ore sorting, which has been demonstrated to effectively multiply the tin grade across the entire deposit. “These results, combined with the previously announced higher-grade zone on the southern margin of the known deposit footprint, are beginning to show exceptional potential for these zones to enable fast payback of Capex and low Opex for any potential future mining operations at Tallebung.” The Board of Sky Metals Limited (‘SKY’ or ‘The Company’) is pleased to report final assay results from the in-fill Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program completed recently at its 100%-owned Tallebung Tin Project, NSW. TALLEBUNG PROJECT (EL 6699, SKY 100%) RC DRILLING PROGRAM Assay results have been received for the remaining three holes (TBRC113-TBRC115) from the latest drilling program of 13 Reverse Circulation (RC) drill-holes (TBRC103-TBRC115, Figure 1), all of which have successfully intersected further higher-grade tin mineralisation. 1Please see SKY ASX Announcement 18 September 2024 for more details 2Please see SKY ASX Announcement 23 January 2024 for more details. SKY METALS LIMITED +61 2 6360 1587 2 HAWTHORN PLACE, ORANGE NSW 2800 WWW.SKYMETALS.COM.AU ABN 46 098 952 035 As previously reported, the first 10 holes (TBRC103-112) successfully confirmed the continuity of recently discovered high-grade tin mineralisation well beyond the southern margin of the current MRE (SKY ASX Announcement 18 September 2024, Figure 1). These latest three holes (TBRC113-TBRC115) were drilled in the area directly under the historic southern open pit, being a remnant pit excavated during the alluvial mining operations at Tallebung over 50 years ago. These holes were designed to in-fill areas of higher-grade tin mineralisation intersected in pervious drilling in this area. Highlights from these drill-holes include: TBRC113: 10m @ 0.27% Sn, 0.03% W & 7.53g/t Ag from 62m, including: 1m @ 1.76% Sn, 0.03% W & 5.54g/t Ag from 62m 24m @ 0.14% Sn, 21.3g/t Ag & 0.98% Zn from 171, including: 14m @ 0.21% Sn, 0.04% W & 34.4g/t Ag from 174m, including: 1m @ 0.84% Sn, 200g/t Ag, 0.18% Cu & 3.16% Zn from 186m TBRC114: 5m @ 0.27% Sn, 0.12% W, 178g/t Ag & 0.14% Cu from 56m, including: 2m @ 0.38% Sn, 0.20% W, 416g/t Ag & 0.30% Cu from 56m 29m @ 0.50% Sn, 0.06% W, 33.8g/t Ag & 0.53% Zn from 173m, including: 1m @ 2.42% Sn from 173, and: 7m @ 1.23% Sn, 106g/t Ag, 0.06% Cu & 0.35% Zn from 181m. TBRC115: 11m @ 0.43% Sn & 49.7g/t Ag from 85m, including: 6m @ 0.71% Sn & 56.6g/t Ag from 85m. These results confirm excellent continuity of higher-grade tin mineralisation in the vicinity of the southern open pit area and highlight strong potential for additional high-grade tin Resources to be defined in this area and included in the next MRE update for Tallebung. (NB: Sn = tin, W = tungsten, Ag = silver, Cu = copper, Zn = Zinc) NEXT STEPS With all results from the latest drilling programs at Tallebung now received, SKY’s geologists will use the drilling data, along with the additional tin mineralisation discovered and surface and mine mapping, to further develop the improving geological models to increase the confidence and size of the current MRE at Tallebung. The current Tallebung MRE of 15.6Mt @ 0.15% Sn for 23.3kt of contained Sn (SKY ASX Announcement 23 January 2024) was only estimated over a fraction of the tin mineralisation footprint which has now been delineated. This footprint has been significantly expanded in these latest drilling programs, successfully increasing the deposit footprint and resulting in the discovery of more tin mineralisation. Once updates to the geological modelling and MRE have been completed, the Company will be able to determine next steps towards releasing scoping studies to evaluate the potential economics of a mining operation at Tallebung and what additional work may be required to achieve this. Also, a key contributing factor in future economics will be the latest success in ore sorting trials which demonstrated a 44x increase in Sn grade for an 83% recovery of tin to a 4.42% Sn grade in ore sorted product. A series of trenches are proposed to identify 3-4 areas across the deposit for extraction of bulk samples for use in metallurgical testwork and to confirm mining reconciliation against drilling results. These samples will also allow bulk metallurgy studies and the production of a large sample of tin concentrate from the Tallebung deposit. The data collected from all these works will be vital in informing future mining studies at Tallebung. 2 Figure 1: Plan showing the current boundary of the Tallebung MRE with new intercepts shown in orange.

These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.  Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. For RC drilling, assay standards or blanks are inserted at least every 50 samples. All sample lab received weights show consistency with recovery and interval length.  Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases Each sample was dried, crushed and pulverised as per standard industry practice. where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a RC Drilling – the total sample (~20-30kg) is delivered via cyclone into a large plastic bag which is retained 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases, more explanation may be required, such as where for future use if required. 1m intervals are split using a cone splitter on the rig into a separate calico at there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems.

Where mineralisation has not been logged, 4m Composites have been made by using mineralisation types (e.g. submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. a spear to Combine equal amounts of samples from each 1m calico. The primary metal of interest, tin (Sn) and also tungsten (W) were determined by lithium borate fusion XRF (method ALS – ME-MS85) – considered appropriate for these elements. Multielement assaying was Completed for 48 elements by 0.25g four-acid digest with ICPMS determination (method ALS – MEMS61) Reverse circulation (RC) drilling using 110mm rods, 144mm face sampling hammer. Drilling techniques  Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, facesampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc) Drill sample recovery    Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. RC drilling - high capacity RC rig was used to enable dry samples collected. Drill cyclone is cleaned Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. between rod changes and after each hole to minimise cross-hole contamination. Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material Sample weights are recorded for each sample. Recoveries were generally excellent and consistent, however, if samples were wet the recoveries were less consistent. There is no known relationship between sample recovery and grade. Where samples recoveries are less than 95% there is no relationship observed between grade and sample recovery. Relationships between sample recovery and grade are not considered significant where recoveries exceeded 95% in fresh rock. 8 Criteria Logging    Explanation Commentary Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged Systematic geological and geotechnical logging was undertaken when the holes were originally drilled. Data collected includes:  Nature and extent of lithologies.  Relationship between lithologies.  Amount and mode of occurrence of ore minerals.  Location, extent, and nature of structures such as bedding, cleavage, veins, faults etc. Structural data (alpha & beta) are recorded for orientated core. Geotechnical data such as recovery, RQD, fracture frequency, qualitative IRS, microfractures, veinlets and number of defect sets. For some geotechnical holes the orientation, nature of defects and defect fill are recorded. Both qualitative and quantitative data is collected. RC chips, half core (HQ) & ¾ core (PQ) samples are retained in trays for future reference. A representative sample of each one metre RC interval is retained in chip trays for future reference. All chips were geologically logged. Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation       If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in-situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling. Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled RC drilling - the total sample (~20-30kg) is delivered via cyclone into a large plastic bag which is retained for future use if required. 1m intervals are split using a cone splitter on the rig into a separate calico at the time of drilling. Where 4m Composites have been made, a spear is used to split equal amounts of each metre into the 4m Composite. Samples were dried crushed and pulverised to 90% passing 75 microns. This is considered to appropriately homogenise the sample to allow subsampling for the various assay techniques. SKY: Certified Reference Material (CRM) and blanks were inserted at least every 50 samples to assess the accuracy and reproducibility of the drill core results. The results of the standards were to be within ±10% variance from known certified result. If greater than 10% variance the standard and up to 10 samples each side were re-assayed. SGS conducted internal check samples every 20 for multielement assay. RC drilling - duplicate samples are collected of re-split intervals. Duplicates generally show excellent repeatability. Sample sizes are industry standard and considered appropriate Quality of assay data and laboratory tests    The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and Standard assay procedures performed by a reputable assay lab, (ALS), were undertaken.

When Complete the spreadsheet was Combined into a master excel spreadsheet as the drill hole database. Assay data was provided by ALS via .csv spreadsheets. The data was validated using the results received from the known certified reference material. Hard copies of the assay certificates were stored with drill hole data such as drillers plods, invoices, and hole planning documents. Assay data is not adjusted. Location of data points    Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation. Specification of the grid system used Quality and adequacy of topographic control Historic drill hole collars were located using either a licenced surveyor or on a local imperial or metric grid. Conversion of the local grid co-ordinates has been undertaken by previous exploration Companies. SKY has used DGPS surveying of drillholes (± 0.1m) to accurately locate them. All coordinates are based on Map Grid Australia Zone 55E, Geodetic Datum of Australia 1994. Historic drill hole collars were located using either a licenced surveyor or on a local imperial or metric grid. SKY has used DGPS surveying of drillholes (± 0.1m) to accurately locate them, or handheld GPS (+/3m). Where handheld GPS has been used, SKY will DGPS them at a later date. Data spacing and distribution    Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results At this stage, drilling of the MRE area of the project has been drilled to at least approximately 80m x 80m Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results Whether the data spacing, and distribution is down to 40m x 40m for inferred and indicated resources respectively. Outside of the MRE are, data sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral spacing is variable as the focus is on geological mapping and identifying new zones of mineralisation.

The structural controls on mineralisation is considered well understood and consistent. 10 Criteria Explanation Commentary Sample security  The measures taken to ensure sample security Sample chain of custody has been managed by the employees of Sky Metals who Commissioned the drilling and transport samples from the drilling rig to assay laboratory. All samples are bagged in tied numbered calico bags, grouped into larger tied polyweave bags, or placed in a stillage box and transported to ALS in Orange by SKY personnel. All sample submissions are documented via ALS tracking system and all assays are reported via email. Sample pulps are returned to site and stored for an appropriate length of time (minimum 3 years). The Company has in place protocols to ensure data security. Audits or reviews  The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data The Company has external consultants to verify exploration data for the resource estimation process. Further details for the MREs can be found in SKY ASX Announcement 22 Match 2023 and SKY ASX Announcement 23 January 2024. Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results – TALLEBUNG PROJECT (Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section) Criteria Explanation Mineral tenement and land tenure status Exploration done by other parties Commentary  Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material issues The Tallebung Project is described by NSW Exploration Licence 6699 with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests, The tenement is 100% owned by Stannum Pty Ltd, a 100% owned subsidiary of Big Sky Metals Pty Ltd historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings. and a 100% owned subsidiary of Sky Metals Ltd. The Tallebung tenement is overlain by Native Title Determination Application No NC12/1 (Federal Court No NSD 415/12). A determination of extinguished native title was received over a portion of the Tallebung Tin Field. An agreement between for the remainder of the tenement where Native Title has not been extinguished, an agreement has been reached between Stannum and the Native Titla Applicant to allow access to the remainder of the tenement.  The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area Stannum Pty Ltd have previously Commenced a Right to Negotiate Process (RTN) with the claimant group with respect to Application No NC12/1 (Federal Court No NSD 415/12). These negotiations have resulted in a land access agreement to be sign with Stannum Pty Ltd. A determination of extinguished native title was received over a major portion of the Tallebung Tin Field and Stannum has also signed an access agreement with the Native Title Applicant for access to the entire lease.  Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties The Tallebung Project area was subject to a modern, large-scale alluvial/colluvial mining by the Tullebong Tin Syndicate in the period 1963-1972. The Tullebong Syndicate Completed a program of 24 short diamond holes in 1968-69 designed to test the lode mineralisation at Tallebung. Pruessag Completed a large-scale assessment of the alluvial tin deposits in 1984-85, including RC drilling, identifying the potential for a large, low grade alluvial deep lead. In recent exploration, YTC Resources (now Aurelia Metals Ltd) Completed trenching, diamond drilling, aircore drilling of tailings, and resistivity geophysics (EH4) at the Tallebung tin field. YTC recognised the 11 Criteria Explanation Commentary continued potential for both shallow high grade, and large scale low-grade porphyry-style- tin mineralisation. Geology  Drill hole Information   Data aggregation methods    Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation The Ordovician aged Tallebung Group sediments in the Tallebung Tin Field area outcrop as a sequence of weakly metamorphosed shales, siltstones, carbonaceous mudstones and minor quartz-rich sandstones. The rocks are tightly folded, striking NNW at around 330o with variable dips. The tin mineralisation is thought to be sourced from the Silurian-aged Erimeran granite, which outcrops 2km south of the Tallebung Tin Field. The Tallebung Tin Field represents a site of significant tin and tungsten production from high grade, quartz lodes and their associated alluvial and deep lead deposits. The field
