COMPANY BUSINESS (INCLUDING MAIN COUNTRY OF OPERATION) OR, IN THE CASE OF AN INVESTING COMPANY, DETAILS OF ITS INVESTING POLICY).  IF THE ADMISSION IS SOUGHT AS A RESULT OF A REVERSE TAKE-OVER UNDER RULE 14, THIS SHOULD BE STATED:

The Company is currently admitted to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange. The Company was established as a shell company, originally with the intention to undertake one or more acquisitions in the life sciences sector, which was later changed in 2023 to a strategy to identify and acquire value-accretive opportunities in the natural resources sector, with a particular focus on precious metals projects. Trading in the Company's ordinary shares was suspended on 19 December 2025 pending the Company's publication of an AIM admission document in relation to the Acquisition (as defined below) and admission to trading on AIM ("Admission"). Subject to and on Admission, the Company will have acquired 90 per cent. of Wedgetail Mining Corp ("Wedgetail"). The Company has conditionally agreed to acquire 90 per cent. of Wedgetail, a private Canadian company that holds 100 per cent. of a total of 95 contiguous single-cell mining claims in the Kenora Mining Division in Ontario, Canada, with a total surface area of approximately 1,985.88 hectares (the "Acquisition"), known as the Eagle Lake Project (the "Project"). 90 per cent. of Wedgetail will be acquired from Ulvestone Limited ("Ulvestone"), a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on 11 June 2025 under BVI company number 2179010. It is intended that at the same time, Gunsynd plc, an AIM quoted company, will acquire the remaining 10 per cent. of Wedgetail from Ulvestone. The consideration payable by the Company for 90 per cent. of Wedgetail is expected to be £4.17 million which will be satisfied through the issue of £4 million of new ordinary shares in the Company at the Fundraise Price (defined below) on Admission and a cash payment of £170,000, £70,000 of which is payable on signing the related sale and purchase agreement and the balance of £100,000 to be paid on Admission. In connection with the Acquisition and Admission, the Company has conditionally raised approximately £2 million (before expenses) through a placing and subscription of new Ordinary Shares at the Fundraise Price. The net proceeds will be used to fund the £100,000 cash balance of the consideration payable on Admission, the initial exploration programme at the Project and the Enlarged Group's general working capital requirements. Following completion of the Acquisition, the corporate structure will comprise the following on Admission: -     Talon Resources plc - the AIM-quoted parent and strategic decision-making entity, headquartered in London; and -     Wedgetail Mining Corp - the Canadian vehicle that will own the Eagle Lake mining claims. The Company's strategy is to acquire or invest in mineral targets or resources and progress them towards production. This includes finalising the Acquisition and using the proceeds of the fundraise to fund the development of the Project.
