Fulcrum Metals plc / EPIC: FMET / Market: AIM / Sector: Mining 29 June 2026 Fulcrum Metals plc ("Fulcrum" or the "Company" or the "Group") Fulcrum signs non-binding US$20 million royalty financing term sheet and enters into £200,000 strategic investment with Chancery Royalty Fulcrum Metals plc (AIM: FMET), a company pioneering the use of innovative cyanide-free technologies developed by Extrakt Process Solutions to recover precious and critical metals from mine waste and support site regeneration, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a non-binding US$20 million royalty financing term sheet and signed a £200,000 equity subscription with Chancery Royalty Ltd. ("Chancery Royalty"), in relation to the Company's Teck-Hughes tailings project in Kirkland Lake, Ontario. Highlights: · US$20 million non-binding royalty financing term sheet signed with Chancery Royalty · Proposed 5% NSR over Teck-Hughes gold production provides a potential non-dilutive route to production funding · Fulcrum would retain the right to repurchase 2% of the royalty for US$10 million · £200,000 subscription for new ordinary shares in Fulcrum by Chancery at 8.5p per share · Potential framework for future royalty opportunities beyond the Company's Teck-Hughes tailings project · Definitive agreements subject to successful pilot-scale testing and customary conditions The proposed royalty financing has been structured as a potential source of non-dilutive project development capital to support advancing Fulcrum's wholly owned Teck-Hughes Project towards commercial production, subject to successful pilot-scale testing, technical studies, permitting and definitive documentation. Ryan Mee, Chief Executive Officer of Fulcrum, commented: "We see Chancery as an ambitious and growth-oriented royalty company and welcome them as a shareholder and a potential long-term funding partner. The proposed royalty financing provides a framework to advance Teck- Hughes from pilot-scale validation towards commercial production. Importantly it also represents third party validation of both our technology-led strategy and the long-term value we see across our mine waste recovery platform. Fulcrum is creating a scalable mine waste recovery platform, underpinned by the planned deployment of a standalone pilot facility and through exclusive rights to Extrakt's cyanide-free technology across the Timmins and Kirkland Lake mining districts. Teck-Hughes, with its initial conceptual production profile of approximately 12,000 ounces of gold per annum, represents the first step in executing that broader strategy. As we evaluate potential sites for pilot plant deployment, we believe the combination of our platform approach and growing relationship with Chancery could provide a strong foundation to unlock a wider pipeline of mine waste opportunities to create long-term value together." Jeremy Gray, Chief Executive Officer of Chancery Royalty, commented: "Chancery is focused on partnering with companies that offer both near-term production potential and long-term growth opportunities, and we believe Fulcrum is strategically positioned to deliver both. Its innovative cyanide- free approach to metal recovery, commitment to environmental remediation and broader platform strategy provide a differentiated platform for sustainable growth. We are pleased to become shareholders in Fulcrum and look forward to supporting the advancement of Teck- Hughes towards commercial production. More broadly, we believe this relationship has the potential to create long-term value for both companies as Fulcrum expands its mine waste recovery platform and Chancery builds a portfolio of quality royalty assets." Non-binding US$20 million gold royalty term sheet Fulcrum EnviroTech Corp., the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, has entered into a non-binding term sheet with Chancery Royalty in respect of the Teck-Hughes tailings project located in Kirkland Lake, Ontario. Subject to the execution of definitive agreements, the parties intend that Chancery Royalty would acquire a 5% Net Smelter Return ("NSR") royalty on gold production from the Teck-Hughes project for a purchase price of US$20 million. Fulcrum would retain the right to repurchase 2% of the royalty for US$10 million at any time up to two years following the achievement of commercial production. The proposed royalty would not affect Fulcrum's ownership or operational control of the Teck-Hughes Project. Fulcrum would retain 100% ownership of the underlying mineral rights, processing operations, project infrastructure and development activities, with the royalty representing a proposed financing interest in future gold production from the Teck-Hughes project only. The non-binding term sheet sets out that the royalty payments shall be structured as quarterly payments however the final royalty payment terms will be subject to the terms of the definitive agreement. The funds that would be received from the proposed royalty financing would be applied towards the development and advancement of the Company's mineral projects including exploration, construction and related activities as well as for general corporate purposes. Subject to execution of definitive agreements, Chancery Royalty would also be granted a right of first refusal over future royalties on additional mine waste reprocessing projects controlled by Fulcrum within the Kirkland Lake district for a period of two years. Completion of the proposed royalty financing remains subject to, inter alia, customary due diligence, successful pilot-scale testing, environmental and permitting reviews, board approvals, the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements and compliance with applicable regulatory requirements.

In addition to advancing its mine waste recovery strategy, the Company maintains a portfolio of highly prospective mineral exploration and development projects in Ontario and Saskatchewan, Canada. Fulcrum has an agreement for exclusive rights in respect of any licensed use of Extrakt's proven cyanide free technology on legacy gold mine waste sites across the Timmins and Kirkland Lake mining districts.
