Sea Concession 2A Technical Report

Final Technical Report confirms US$369.3m indicative in-situ value

from just 1.42% of Sea Concession 2A

Kazera Global plc (AIM: KZG), the AIM-quoted investment company, is pleased to announce that, further to its announcement of 3 August 2026, the independent technical report (the "Technical Report") in respect of the Sea Concession 2A heavy mineral sands ("HMS") project in Alexander Bay, Northern Cape, South Africa ("2A" or the "Project") has now been completed, approved and signed off by Creo Geo Consulting (Pty) Ltd ("Creo").

A copy of the full Technical Report is available to download from the Company's website at https://kazeraglobal.com/reports-presentations/

The final Technical Report confirms and refines the key provisional findings announced on 3 August 2026. The initial surf-zone Evaluation Area of 42.86 hectares represents only 1.42% of the total 2A licence area (the "Evaluation Area") but contains an Inferred Mineral Resource of 6.65 million tonnes of HMS at a grade of 20.04% Total Heavy Minerals ("THM"). Creo has calculated an indicative in-situ value of approximately US$369.3 million for the contained ilmenite, garnet, zircon and rutile within this Evaluation Area alone, based on Q2 2026 FOB prices. No indicative in-situ value has been attributed at this stage to the remaining 98.58% of 2A, which the Technical Report identifies as a substantial Geological Target.

The final Technical Report further notes:

The US$369.3 million indicative in-situ value relates solely to the current Mineral Resource within the 1.42% Evaluation Area. It is an indicative gross in-situ value only and does not represent recoverable value, revenue, profit, net present value or an Ore Reserve.

Richard Jennings, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Kazera Global plc, commented: "We are extremely pleased that the final Technical Report confirms the provisional results we announced on 3 August and gives us a much firmer technical foundation for 2A.

"The headline for us is that an Evaluation Area representing just 1.42% of the 2A licence area contains 6.65 million tonnes of HMS at 20.04% THM and has an indicative in-situ value of approximately US$369.3 million for its contained ilmenite, garnet, zircon and rutile.

"What is equally important is that this value relates only to the current Mineral Resource within that 1.42% Evaluation Area. The remaining 98.58% of the concession is identified as a substantial Geological Target and, even on a conservative basis, potentially hosts more than a quarter of a billion  tonnes of HMS.

"This final report is an important step in demonstrating the scale and commercial potential of our flagship South African asset and the future revenue opportunity under the agreement we signed with South Africa AT Investments (Pty) Ltd on 9 July 2026. The key remaining regulatory milestone is the granting of the 2A Mining Right."

Technical Report

2A covers approximately 3,012.95 hectares and extends for around 30 kilometres along the coast between Port Nolloth and Alexander Bay, within the diamond mining concession boundaries of Alexkor SOC Limited. The Project occupies the nearshore surf-zone and mid-water areas adjacent to Alexkor's land-based diamond mining areas.

The April and May 2026 sampling programme was designed to cover as much of the 2A surf-zone area as practicable. Sampling was conducted on an unbiased grid and comprised 30 samples, with 18 samples collected from the southern section and 12 from the northern section. Pit depths ranged from 4.5 metres to 8.9 metres.

Creo states that sufficient exploration data has been acquired to estimate a Mineral Resource for the 2A surf zone in accordance with JORC reporting standards. The Technical Report states that the sampling is representative, covers the deposit appropriately and demonstrates geological and grade continuity.

Mineral Resource Estimate

The Mineral Resource estimate relates to the 42.86 hectare Evaluation Area, representing 1.42% of the total 2A area. The final Technical Report confirms the following Inferred Mineral Resource:

The principal economic heavy minerals contained within the Mineral Resource are:

The Technical Report notes that typical head grades at operating heavy mineral mines globally are in the range of 8% to 12% THM and that valuable heavy minerals typically comprise approximately 50% to 60% of the heavy mineral assemblage. By comparison, the Evaluation Area has a THM grade of 20.04% and the report states that economic heavy minerals comprise approximately 98.5% of the THM assemblage.

No Ore Reserves have been declared at this stage.

Indicative In-Situ Value

The final Technical Report calculates an indicative in-situ value of approximately US$369.3 million for the contained ilmenite, garnet, zircon and rutile within the current Mineral Resource in the 42.86-hectare Evaluation Area, representing just 1.42% of 2A, based on Q2 2026 FOB prices. The component values are set out below:

The Company notes that the US$369.3 million in-situ value relates only to the current Mineral Resource within the Evaluation Area. It is indicative only and does not represent recoverable value, revenue, profit, net present value or an Ore Reserve and is subject to, among other things, mineral recoveries, mining and processing costs, capital costs, transport, product specifications, permitting, environmental constraints and commodity price movements. No indicative in-situ value has been attributed to the wider Geological Target at this stage.

Geological Target

In addition to the current Mineral Resource, Creo identifies the remaining 98.58% of 2A as a substantial Geological Target. On the conservative basis set out in the Technical Report, and based on extrapolation of the current Inferred Mineral Resource and the observed homogeneous nature of the deposit thus far, Creo considers that the 2A area has the potential to host at least 265.2 million tonnes of HMS.

The Geological Target is conceptual in nature. The wider area has not yet been subjected to the same level of exploration as the Evaluation Area, its grade has yet to be determined and there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve over that area. It is therefore uncertain whether further exploration will result in the estimation of any additional Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve. No indicative in-situ value has been attributed to the Geological Target at this stage.

Next Steps

The Technical Report states that further exploration is warranted and that there is significant scope to expand the current resource footprint. Creo notes that the geological controls observed to date are consistent with wave-driven nearshore deposition within a predictable active marine framework, although specialised exploration and sampling techniques will be required for the deeper-water areas of 2A.

Granting of the 2A Mining Right remains the key next regulatory milestone. Subject to that milestone, the Technical Report will provide the technical basis for the next phase of exploration, mine planning, metallurgical optimisation and commercial development of the Project.

Qualified Person Statement

Cautionary Statement

The Mineral Resource referred to in this announcement is not an Ore Reserve. No Ore Reserves have been declared in respect of 2A.

The indicative in-situ value referred to in this announcement does not represent recoverable value, revenue, profit, net present value or an Ore Reserve.

The Geological Target referred to in this announcement is conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve over the wider 2A area and it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in the estimation of any additional Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve.
