determine whether they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the
FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Arkadian’s Key Projects at a Glance
Motzfeldt Critical Metals Project, Greenland
Arkadian holds a majority interest in the Motzfeldt Critical Metals Project in southern Greenland, a large-scale mineralised
system containing rare earth elements, niobium, tantalum and zirconium. Its Aries deposit hosts a JORC-compliant
Inferred Mineral Resource of 340 million tonnes, with additional exploration potential across the wider project area,
including the Merino and Voskop targets.
The Company’s strategy has sought to advance Motzfeldt through resource evaluation, mineral processing studies and
environmental and engineering work, while assessing opportunities to expand and upgrade the existing resource. The
longer-term objective is to develop the project’s potential to supply critical metals needed by advanced technologies and
industry.
Clogau-St David’s Gold Mine, Wales
Arkadian owns the exclusive exploration rights to the Clogau-St David’s Gold Mine in north Wales, Britain’s largest
historic gold producer, with recorded production of at least 80,000 ounces. Situated within the Dolgellau Gold Belt, the
mine combines a distinguished gold-mining heritage with opportunities to investigate extensions to historically productive
veins and previously unworked targets. The Company’s strategy has combined geological investigation and targeted
underground exploration with evaluation of gold recovery from historic mine material.
