In 2026, key planned work programs at the JNP include BASIC & DETAILED ENGINEERING, FINALISATION OF PROJECT FUNDING, a Final Investment Decision for the project development AND COMMENCEMENT OF ONSITE PROJECT DEVELOPMENT WORK. Setting targets for renewable energy use, energy efficiency, biodiversity management, water and waste management will help guide our mission to become a sustainable nickel miner at the JNP. Incorporating such targets into the project design and maintaining our ambitious sustainability trajectory will also take into consideration the Principles of Responsible Investment and Towards Sustainable Mining Principles framework and will respond to the material issues raised by our stakeholders and risk assessment processes. Centaurus is committed to the continuous improvement of our policies and procedures. The Company’s sustainability policy and climate change policy are tabled for approval by the Board within the next reporting period. We will continue to pursue improvements in our safety performance, strengthening the exploration management system and related health and safety procedures and focusing on enhancing our Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) leadership and culture across our activities by expanding the use of the integrated management software, Siclope, and focusing on recently hired employees who may be more susceptible to errors. Our community investment will continue to be directed towards local economic development and creating educational pathways for local people. In cooperation with local stakeholders and government representatives, we will continue to drive local procurement and hiring where possible and work closely with our employees and contractors. Ongoing stakeholder consultation meetings will occur at key locations around the JNP and JIOP regions to regularly update the community on project development and employment opportunities as well as updating the community on the progress and outcomes of environmental surveys and future plans for the projects. In summary, our ESG targets for the next reporting period are: > 12 visits to local communities to discuss JNP impacts and benefits > More than 60% of project staff hired locally > More than 90% of community feedback replied within 24 hours > Meet 100% of the JNP LP and LI requirements 39
