As the world races to secure reliable critical mineral supply chains, Araxá continues to grow in scale, de-risk development and build long-term value.

The successful capital raising significantly enhances project development flexibility. The funding enables expanded exploration programs that can potentially increase resource size and improve project economics.

Additional drilling activities help define higher-confidence mineral resources while identifying new exploration targets across the project area. Larger resource inventories typically strengthen long-term mine planning and investment attractiveness.

Technical studies funded through this capital raise can refine processing methods, improve recovery rates, and reduce operational risks before commercial production decisions are made.

The Araxá Project is de-risking at every step. Bigger intercepts. Deeper mineralisation. Stronger fundamentals. Well funded.

St George Mining has reported its thickest drill intercept to date at the 100%-owned Araxá Rare Earths & Niobium Project in Brazil, with 23 new drill holes confirming exceptional scale, grade and continuity of mineralisation from surface.

🔎 Key Highlights

AXDD120 delivered a record 199.5m @ 2.86% TREO & 0.44% Nb₂O₅ from surface

Included 60m @ 3.96% TREO & 0.52% Nb₂O₅ from surface

Included 15m @ 3.30% TREO & 0.97% Nb₂O₅ from 36m

Seven drill holes returned more than 150m of continuous mineralisation from surface

High-grade rare earths remain open at depth, with 1m @ 4.8% TREO at the end of AXDD120

Eight drill holes extended the mineralised footprint by up to 200m north, supporting further resource growth

Near-surface, flat-lying mineralisation continues to support large-scale open-pit mining potential

Strong niobium intersections reinforce Araxá's dual-commodity development opportunity

Resource upgrade expected this quarter, with East Araxá drilling set to drive further growth in Q4 2026

Niobium has become increasingly valuable across numerous industrial sectors because of its unique strengthening properties when added to steel and specialised alloys.

The latest announcement that St George Mining confirms high-grade niobium concentrate and rare earth stream in first Araxá metallurgical testwork highlights the production of a high-grade niobium concentrate during initial testing. Such results indicate favourable mineral processing characteristics that could support future project development.

High-grade concentrates generally offer advantages in downstream processing because they reduce transport volumes while increasing the proportion of valuable minerals delivered to processing facilities.

St George Mining has received firm commitments to raise A$60 million through a two-tranche institutional placement, providing significant funding to fast-track development of its world-class Araxá Rare Earths and Niobium Project in Brazil. 🚀🌎

The capital raise was strongly supported by institutional investors, including major shareholder Hancock Prospecting, reinforcing confidence in the project's long-term potential.

🔎 Key Highlights

Firm commitments secured to raise A$60 million

Placement priced at A$0.10 per share

Hancock Prospecting commits A$20 million

Hancock expected to hold approximately 10.5% of SGQ following completion

Funds to accelerate feasibility and development activities at Araxá

Project hosts a world-class rare earths and niobium resource in Brazil

Strong institutional support from existing and new investors

Funding strengthens SGQ's pathway toward a future development decision

📊 Market Snapshot

Share Price: $0.100 Market Cap: $434.73M

🚀 Investor Takeaway

The A$60M placement significantly strengthens St George Mining's balance sheet and provides the capital required to accelerate development activities at Araxá. With backing from Hancock Prospecting and growing global demand for critical minerals, SGQ is well positioned to advance one of the world's most significant undeveloped rare earths and niobium projects.
