Announcement PDF Page 1 UPDATE TO PREVIOUS ANNOUNCEMENT Drilling Near Completion at Breakaway Dam Copper-Rich VMS Project Catalina Resources Limited (ASX:CTN) (“Catalina” or “the Company”) refers to the announcement previously released on 25 March 2026 titled “Drilling Near Completion at Breakaway Dam Copper-Rich VMS Project”. The Company advises that the additional information required by Compliance Update 04/23 has now been provided. The updated announcement is attached. This announcement has been authorised for release by the Executive Director, Ross Cotton. Contact Investors/ Shareholders Ross Cotton Executive Director T: +61 (0)8 6188 8181 ASX Announcement 8 APRIL 2026 Drilling Near Completion at Breakaway Dam Copper-Rich VMS Project Highlights ➢ Drilling nearing completion at the Breakaway Dam Copper Project, with approximately 1,600m completed ➢ Breakaway Dam is a confirmed copper-rich VMS system, with prior drilling delivering copper intersections approaching ~2% Cu over meaningful widths1,2 ➢ This Drill Program was designed to test conductor thickness and continuity within priority DHEM targets, successfully intersecting targeted conductor positions ➢ Multiple zones of sulphide mineralisation observed, consistent with the interpreted VMS system ➢ Assays have been fast tracked following field observations and intersection of priority conductor plates ➢ DHEM surveys to commence, with DeepVision Geophysics mobilising to site ➢ Planning for the next phase of drilling underway pending receipt of assays Catalina Resources Limited (“Catalina” or “the Company”) is pleased to advise that its current drilling program at the Breakaway Dam Copper Project, located approximately 17km east of Menzies in Western Australia, is nearing completion. The program is expected to conclude within the coming days, representing a targeted step forward in advancing understanding of the geometry, continuity and scale of the Breakaway Dam copper-rich volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) system1,2 . The drilling program has intersected visually estimated sulphide mineralisation based on geological logging of RC chip samples associated with modelled conductor targets, derived from previously completed downhole electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys. These outcomes strengthen the Company’s targeting approach and support ongoing work to define the geometry, continuity and scale of the Breakaway Dam VMS system. Executive Director, Ross Cotton, commented: “This program has been designed to test the most compelling targets identified at Breakaway Dam, and it is extremely encouraging to see sulphide mineralisation intersected in line with our modelling. These results provide further validation of our targeting approach and reinforce our confidence in the broader potential of this copper-rich VMS system. Assays are being prioritised following encouraging field observations, and with DHEM surveys imminent, we are focused on maintaining momentum and advancing the project through its next phase.” ASX Announcement 8 April 2026 Figure 1. Breakaway Dam Regional Location CONTEXT FROM PREVIOUS DRILLING Drilling at Breakaway Dam has intersected sulphide mineralisation in all holes, occurring in a consistent stratigraphic position within fine-grained metasedimentary units overlying a porphyritic basalt sequence. This geological setting, together with the observed sulphide assemblage and associated geophysical responses, is consistent with the Company’s interpretation of Breakaway Dam as a confirmed copper- rich VMS system. Drilling has returned multiple copper intersections across the central zone, including individual intervals approaching ~2% Cu, with mineralisation occurring over true widths of up to approximately 8– 9 metres1,2 . The presence of both copper- and zinc-bearing sulphides further supports the interpretation of a copper-rich VMS system. PROGRAM BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES This phase of drilling was designed as a focused follow-up to previous drilling and geophysical surveys, which identified1 : ➢ A ~700 metre strike length of sulphide mineralisation ➢ Strong DHEM conductors, interpreted to represent accumulations of sulphide material ➢ Geological characteristics consistent with a copper-dominant VMS system, including footwall stringer zones and metal zonation The primary objectives of the current program were to: ➢ Test the continuity and geometry of the mineralised system ➢ Directly target modelled conductor plates derived from previous DHEM surveys ➢ Assess potential for thicker sulphide accumulations within plate cores ➢ Provide data to refine geological and geophysical models ahead of further drilling Figure 2. Plan view of BDC Central Zone target drill area including BDCDD2503 previous drill holes and associated results1,2 . Drilling Progress and Observations A total of approximately 1,600 metres has been drilled across the program to date, with completion expected within the coming days. Drilling successfully intersected priority conductor targets, validating the Company’s geophysical modelling and targeting methodology. Drill holes designed to test key modelled conductor plates successfully intersected the intended target positions (Figure 3). Drilling also tested a geochemical target south of the central zone, aimed at evaluating the broader strike potential of the system beyond the currently defined mineralised corridor. Geological logging of RC chip samples has identified multiple zones of visually estimated sulphide mineralisation across several drill holes, occurring over discrete downhole intervals with variable sulphide abundance. Sulphide intensity increases in discrete zones, with multiple intervals showing moderate to strong development and localised semi-massive sulphides. The observed sulphides include chalcopyrite, sphalerite, galena, arsenopyrite, pyrite, and pyrrhotite, consistent with the Company’s geological interpretation of a VMS-style system. Importantly, the variability in sulphide abundance observed to date is consistent with drilling intersecting different parts of a broader sulphide system, rather than isolated occurrences. Samples have been submitted for laboratory analysis, with assay results being prioritised. Representative RC rock chip samples, drill collar details and a table of significant intercepts are provided in Appendix 1. Visual estimates of sulphide abundance are based on geological logging of drill samples and should not be considered a proxy or substitute for laboratory analyses where concentrations or grades are the factor of principal economic interest. Visual estimates also potentially provide no information regarding impurities or deleterious physical properties relevant to valuations. Photographs of drill chips are included for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to represent the grade, tenor or continuity of mineralisation. Samples are currently being processed with assay results expected in April 2026 Figure 3. Cross sectional views of the planned drilling for BDCRC26016 Next Steps Following completion of drilling, downhole electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys will be undertaken to further refine the geometry of the system. DeepVision Geophysics is scheduled to mobilise to site on 27 March 2026, with surveys aimed at: ➢ Identifying off-hole conductive responses ➢ Refining the position, size and orientation of sulphide bodies ➢ Generating new high-priority drill targets The integration of drilling and DHEM data is expected to provide a clearer picture of the scale and continuity of the system and guide the next phase of exploration. Planning for the next phase of drilling is already underway and will be refined following receipt of assay results and DHEM survey data. This is expected to support continued drilling momentum at Breakaway Dam, as the Company works to further define the size and scale of the system and assess its mineralisation potential.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary Sampling techniques • Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. • Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. • Aspects of the determination of mineralization that are Material to the Public Report. • In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralization types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. Catalina Resources completed 7 RC holes drilled totalling 1627m the Breakaway Dam project over the period 1 March 2026 to 29 March 2026 Drilling was supervised and samples collected by geologists from Apex Geoscience which is an independent geological consultancy. Drill samples were collected by Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling. Drill hole details are provided in Appendix 1. RC drilling was used to obtain 1m samples using a Metzke Cyclone in calico bags and weighing ~1 to ~4 kg each. Samples were delivered to the ALS Lab in Kalgoorlie for multi-element analyses using four-acid digestion with ICP-OES/ICP-MS finish. The reported information is based on visual geological logging of RC chip trays, including semi-quantitative estimates of sulphide abundance and identification of sulphide mineral species (including chalcopyrite, sphalerite, galena and pyrrhotite and pyrite). Visual estimates were undertaken by experienced geologists and are based on the proportion of sulphide minerals observed within each sample interval. These estimates are qualitative to semi- quantitative in nature and are not intended to represent grade or metal concentration. Sample representivity is considered appropriate for the style of RC drilling, noting that chip samples may be subject to limitations including particle size variation, potential loss of fines, and mixing within the cyclone system. No specialised measurement tools (such as handheld XRF, downhole sondes or analytical instruments) were used in the Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary determination of sulphide abundance or mineralisation. The determination of mineralisation reported in this announcement is based solely on the visual identification and estimated abundance of sulphide minerals, which are considered indicative of potential mineralised zones within the host lithologies. No laboratory analytical results are reported in this announcement. Samples have been retained and will be submitted for assay at ALS Laboratories, Kalgoorlie using industry standard preparation and analytical techniques (details to be reported once available). Drilling techniques • Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc). Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling was performed by Core Drilling from Perth, using a 5.25-inch diameter drill bit with 6 m length drill rods with automatic rod handlers. Holes were drilled at an angle of -60⁰. Drilling with Schramm T685 and Schramm T685i drill. The Schramm T685 was truck-mounted, while the Schramm T685i was configured as a track-mounted (crawler) rig to accommodate varying site access and terrain conditions. Supported by a Mercedes 8x8 booster trucks, equipped with either a Sullair 1150cfm/500psi auxiliary compressor and a Hurricane 6T 1000-psi booster (CDS206) or Doosan 1350cfm/350psi auxiliary compressor and a Hurricane 6T 1000-psi booster (CDS207), was used to complete the drilling program. RC drilling produces dry rock chips, as large capacity air compressors dry the rock out ahead of the advancing drill bit. Downhole Surveys employed a downhole Gyro making readings every 5m. The rig was supported by a primary compressor rated at approximately 2400 CFM at 1000 PSI. Downhole Surveys employed a downhole Gyro making readings every 30m. Drill sample recovery • Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. • Measures taken to maximise sample Sample recovery was assessed visually via the sample size collected into the calico bags. Where sample recovery was low due to Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. • Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material. wet samples material was scooped from the spoil pile. Sample recovery and condition was noted for every metre. Ground water caused wet samples occasionally. In ground sumps were dug prior to drilling commencing, to collect the excess groundwater expelled by the rig. Catalina Resources does not anticipate any sample bias from loss/gain of material from the drill rig cyclone. Logging • Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. • Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography. • The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged. RC drill holes were logged for various geological attributes, including colour, lithology, oxidation, alteration, mineralisation and veining. All holes were logged in full by geologists from Apex Geoscience and Xirlatem No geotechnical logging was possible as the RC drilling method does not allow RQD recording. Geological logging was undertaken at 1 m intervals and recorded at the sample depth. Initial geological logging was conducted in the field during drilling, with subsequent review and refinement undertaken in the office using chip trays to confirm lithological and mineralisation observations. Representative 1m samples weighing 20 gms were collected and placed into plastic chip trays for later reference. The recording was done at a level commensurate with the early stage of exploration. Sub- sampling techniques and sample preparation • If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. • If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. • For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique. • Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. • Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half N/A Dry and wet drill samples were collected at the drill collar. After passing through the sample hose and into the drill cyclone the samples pass through a riffle splitter to homogenise the sample and to nullify the effects of particulate gold. After splitting, the sample was collected in a calico bag, ready for assaying. The samples are considered to effectively represent the rock at the point of collection. Sampling included Catalina Resources standard QAQC procedures. Quality Control Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary sampling. • Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. on the RC drill rig included insertion of duplicate samples to test lab repeatability, insertion of standards to verify lab assay accuracy and cleaning and inspection of sample assembly. A standard or duplicate was inserted every 20th to 25th sample. The sample sizes and analysis size are considered appropriate to correctly represent the mineralisation based on the style of mineralisation, sampling methodology and assay value ranges for the commodities of interest. Quality of assay data and laboratory tests • The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total. • For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument m
