United States

Kentucky-Illinois Fluorspar (Zinc-Germanium) Projects1

Oracle entered into several royalty agreements with CleanTech in 2025. Those agreements are subject to respective Oracle and CleanTech shareholder approvals in the next AGM in the fall of 2026.

Oracle's 2% NSR royalty under these agreements covers CleanTech's mineral holdings in the Illinois-Kentucky Fluorspar District ("IKFD"), the largest fluorspar district in the United States. CleanTech's fluorspar projects consist of over a dozen distinct fluorspar deposits including Campbell Crotser, Quarant, Tabb, Babb-Barnes and others. Total mineral-rights area exceeds 17,000 acres with over 745 historic drill holes, collectively control key segments of the Western Kentucky Fluorspar District's most productive fault systems, representing approximately 60,000 feet of fault length across major geological structures.

Refer to www.CleanTechCtv.com for more project information.

CleanTech is preparing permitting for Campbell-Crotser and an associated central flotation processing and tailings facility to produce 97% acid-grade fluorspar on site. Acid-grade fluorspar is currently selling at about $550 per tonne in the US. CleanTech is targeting submission of the principal mine and processing-plant permit applications by the end of November 2026, with permit issuance expected in the first half of 2027.

CleanTech also reported that it is in discussions with major global consumers of acid-grade fluorspar and expects to sign its first binding off-take agreement by November 2026, with first product delivery anticipated in 2028.

Gibellini Vanadium Project (Eureka County, Nevada)2

The Gibellini vanadium project is being developed by CleanTech and is located near Eureka in Nevada's Battle Mountain region, one of top mining investment destinations per the Fraser Institute. The project received a positive EIS Record of Decision from the BLM in October 2023 and has obtained multiple state permits. The project spans over 21km in strike and features an open-pit, heap-leach operation with a 0.2 strip ratio, targeting 99% pure vanadium pentoxide production. Water rights are secured through a nearby CleanTech owned 3,000-acre ranch.

Refer to www.CleanTechCtv.com for more project information.

Oracle holds a 2% NSR royalty on the Gibellini project.

CleanTech continues to advance Gibellini toward production pending higher vanadium price.

Mongolia3

Ulaan Ovoo Coal Project

The Ulaan Ovoo coal project ("Ulan Ovoo") is owned by by Silver Elephant through its Mongolian subsidiaries. Ulaan Ovoo is located in northern Mongolia, 120 km by paved road from Mongolia's Sukhbaatar railway station, which connects to the Trans-Siberian railway network. The mine has produced close to 1,000,000 tonnes of coal since 2012, which was sold to international and Mongolian customers. Ulaan Ovoo features an average strip ratio of 1.8 BCM of waste per tonne of coal. The extracted coal thus far yielded on average 5,000 kcal/kg GCV, with less than 1% sulphur and 8% ash, making it well suited for power plants, cement plants, and heat boiler applications. Wardrop Engineering (Tetra Tech) estimated 174 Mt of measured and 34 Mt of indicated coal resources in an NI 43-101 prefeasibility study in 2010.

Oracle's amended and restated coal royalty executed in August 2025 provides for a royalty equal to the greater of US$2.00 per tonne or 3% of NSR for the coal leaving Ulaan Ovoo premise.

In July 2026, Silver Elephant entered into a 5-year coal lease agreement with an arms-length major Mongolian mining and industrial conglomerate (the "Lessee"). The Lessee's annual production sales forecast from Ulaan Ovoo is between 300,000 and 1,000,000 tonnes.

Cumulative royalty income to Oracle from Silver Elephant's Mongolian coal operation since 2024 is approximately US$450,000.

Canada4

Minago Nickel-PGM Project (Thompson Nickel Belt, Manitoba)

The Minago project is a nickel project, owned and operated by NHCN. Approximately 85,000 metres of drilling has been done on Minago project. The project also hosts magnesium mineralization as reported by NHCN.

Oracle holds a 2% NSR royalty on Minago, when the average nickel price exceeds US$15 per pound. Nickel is currently trading at approximately US$7.50 per pound on the London Metal Exchange (approximately US$16,500 per tonne). For reference, nickel reached a high of more than US$40 per pound during March 2022.

Minago reached two milestones in early 2026: a C$2 million investment from the Government of Manitoba (announced on March 4, 2026) to support the next phase of its first-of-its-kind, low-emission magnesium processing facility, and on March 9, 2026, NHCN's receipt of its full Minago Environment Act Licence, allowing the project to proceed.

Bolivia5

Pulacayo-Paca Silver-Lead-Zinc Project

The Pulacayo-Paca project in Potosí, Bolivia is operated by Silver Elephant. Approximately 95,000 metres of drilling has been done on the project by Silver Elephant and previous operator of the property.

Oracle holds a 2% NSR royalty on the project; under the amended and restated royalty agreement executed in August 2025.

The Pulacayo-Paca project is subject to a mining production contract (the "MPC") with the Corporación Minera de Bolivia ("COMIBOL"). On December 31, 2024, COMIBOL delivered a notice of cancellation of the Pulacayo MPC, and the matter remains under dispute. Silver Elephant is pursuing all judicial and administrative avenues to reinstate the MPC.

Cumulative royalty income to Oracle from the Pulacayo-Paca project since 2023 is approximately US$260,000.

Apuradita Silver-Lead Project

The Apuradita project is nearby the Pulacayo-Paca project, Apuradita is 100% owned by Silver Elephant, and is not part of the disputed MPC with COMIBOL. Apuradita underground mining started in May 2025 and is currently producing approximately 400 tonnes per month of silver-bearing material, which is trucked and toll-milled in Potosí, Bolivia to produce silver-lead concentrate for sale. Since May 2025, approximately 4,547 tonnes of silver-bearing material have been mined, grading approximately 296 g/t Ag and 0.7% Pb. Approximately 71 tonnes of concentrate have been produced and sold grading 7,674 g/t Ag and 19% Pb.

Refer to www.silverelef.com for more information.

Oracle holds a 2% NSR (or $3 per tonne of unprocessed materials leaving site) royalty on the project, under the amended and restated royalty agreement executed in August 2025.

Cumulative royalty income to Oracle from Apuradita since 2025 is approximately US$22,000.

Silver Elephant intends to continue production at Apuradita at a rate of 400 to 650 tonnes per month, and to continue toll milling and grow silver concentrate sales through the remainder of 2026.
