We are humbled by this extraordinary vote of confidence and the universally positive feedback received.

    “Together with our recent $15m Placement, we are well capitalised to continue methodically building and unlocking long term value for Barton’s shareholders.

  • Tunkillia Upgrade Drilling – Update

    Tunkillia Upgrade Drilling – Update

    Program advancing rapidly, ahead of schedule and under budget

    HIGHLIGHTS

    • Reverse circulation (RC) upgrade drilling on high value ‘Starter Pits’ ahead of schedule, 2/3 complete1

    • First assays from highest value ‘Stage 1′ area anticipated to be received during the coming weeks1

    ADELAIDE, AU / ACCESS Newswire / October 28, 2025 / Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX:BGD)(OTCQB:BGDFF)(FRA:BGD3) ( Barton or Company ) is pleased to confirm that upgrade drilling for the ‘Starter Pits’ at its South Australian Tunkillia Gold Project ( Tunkillia ) is progressing ahead of schedule and under budget, with approximately 2/3 of the current ~18,000m program now complete.

    Assuming revenues based upon a gold price of AUD $5,000 / ounce, the ‘Stage 1′ and ‘Stage 2′ optimised open pit areas are modelled to yield 365koz Au and A$1.3bn operating profit during Tunkillia’s first ~2.5 years alone. 1 Estimated ‘Starter Pits’ cash flows are modelled to repay development more than 2x over during the first year of operations, and more than 3x over during the first 2 years, offering an attractive credit financing profile. 1

    This initial round of drilling is therefore designed to convert these two pit areas to JORC (2012) ‘Measured’ and ‘Indicated’ categories, reinforce modelling confidence and support expedited project financing discussions. 1

    Figure 1 – Long section showing Area 223 ‘Main’ pit and stages, and Tunkillia JORC MRE block model 1

    Commenting on Tunkillia’s upgrade drilling programs, Barton Managing Director Alex Scanlon said :

    “We are pleased to confirm that the first phase of Tunkillia upgrade drilling is progressing well, ahead of schedule and under budget, with contractors Raglan Drilling consistently delivering an average of over 300 metres drilling per day.

    “Prior drilling in the ‘Starter Pits’ area has typically returned Tunkillia’s highest grades. Our modelling that indicates that these pits can deliver a payback period of less than 1 year in operations, offering a very attractive credit profile.”

    Program background

    Figure 2 shows Tunkillia’s key ‘Stage 1′ and ‘Stage 2′ optimised pit outlines, with the location of planned new drill hole collars (black dots) and completed drill holes (green dots) for the initial ~18,000m drilling program. The program is targeting the upgrade of all ‘Stage 1′ and ‘Stage 2′ mineralisation to JORC ‘Indicated’ category, with the highest value subset of ‘Stage 1′ mineralisation upgraded to JORC ‘Measured’ category. Previous drilling in the highest value ‘Stage1′ area by Barton and others has yielded assays such as 10m @ 15.7 g/t Au from 54m, 9m @ 6.57 g/t Au from 72m, 17m @ 5.90 g/t Au from 79m, and 15m @ 7.64 g/t Au from 100m depth. 1

    The current drilling program is advancing ahead of schedule and under budget, with a total ~12,000m drilling completed across a total 37 days’ drilling, for an average of approximately 325m per day. A first batch of drilling assays from the central highest value ‘Stage 1′ area is anticipated to be received during the coming weeks.

    A 2 nd stage RC drilling planned for March to June 2026 will then target conversion of all other Tunkillia OSS mineralisation to JORC ‘Indicated’ category. Concurrent diamond drilling ( DD ) will infill and expand Tunkillia’s geotechnical and metallurgical databases to support further pit design optimisation and feasibility studies.

    The Placement was led by Franklin Templeton which has acquired an initial ~3.8% interest in Barton’s expanded equity capital structure following completion. Barton also welcomes Donald Smith Value Fund, L.P. and other new institutions to its share register, and thanks its existing North American investors for their further support. Barton’s expanded capital structure now comprises 237,961,810 fully paid ordinary shares (before the SPP).

    Barton is also opening a non-underwritten SPP targeting $2.5m (before costs), allowing eligible shareholders to acquire new Barton shares at the same Placement price (SPP Offer).1 The SPP Offer will open tomorrow, 23 October 2025 with a letter to shareholders (Letter) and booklet containing the full SPP details (SPP Offer Booklet) published on the ASX. The Letter and an application form will be available to eligible shareholders.

    The SPP is expected to close at 5:00pm (AEDT) on Thursday, 6 November 2025. However, Barton may close the SPP early without notice. The Company notes that the Company’s last SPP, opened on Tuesday, 9 April 2024 was heavily oversubscribed and closed early after only one week.2 Interested Eligible Shareholders are therefore encouraged to apply as soon as possible following the opening of the SPP.

    To apply for SPP Shares, you must make payment directly by BPAY using the unique reference number shown on your personalised application form. You can obtain a copy of your personalised application form online – prior to receipt of materials posted by mail – with your Securityholder Reference Number (SRN) or Holder Identification Number (HIN). Further details will be included in the Letter.

    Commenting on the Placement and SPP, Barton Managing Director Alexander Scanlon said:

    “This Placement further strengthens our already high quality share register, and is a further endorsement of Barton’s strategic regional platform and strategy. We thank our new and existing institutional shareholders for their support as we enter the next phase of our corporate evolution, targeting ‘Stage 1′ commissioning by the end of 2026. We have an exciting journey ahead in South Australia as we lead the re-establishment of the Gawler Craton’s gold district.

    “Barton is very well capitalised to pursue its objectives. The SPP is an opportunity for all other eligible shareholders to extend their participation in Barton’s story.”

  • $17.5 million Capital Raise Led by Franklin Templeton

    $17.5 million Capital Raise Led by Franklin Templeton

    Targeting commissioning of ‘Stage 1′ production by the end of 2026

    HIGHLIGHTS

    • $15m Placement led by Franklin Templeton, one of the world’s largest precious metals funds

    • Share Purchase Plan (SPP) targeting $2.5 million to be offered at same price as the Placement

    • Placement and SPP price of $1.25 / share represents a:

      • Discount of 3.8% to Barton’s last traded price of $1.30 / share on Thursday, 9 October 2025

      • Premium of 7.6% to Barton’s 1 month (20 trading day) VWAP of $1.16 / share

    • Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) underway for reinstatement of Barton’s fully permitted Central Gawler Mill (CGM) to operations, where JORC Mineral Resources include 194koz @ 3.23 g/t Au on existing open pit and underground mine development; targeting commissioning by the end of 20261

    • Upgrade drilling underway on Tunkillia’s ‘Starter Pits’ which are modelled to yield ~$1.3bn operating free cash during the first 2.5 years alone, targeting Ore Reserves, completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS), and submission of a Mining Lease application by the end of calendar year 20262

    • $23 million estimated pro-forma cash balance after completion of Placement and SPP

    ADELAIDE, AU / ACCESS Newswire / October 13, 2025 / Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX:BGD)(OTCQB:BGDFF)(FRA:BGD3) (Barton or the Company) is pleased to announce that the Company has received firm commitments to raise $15 million (before costs) from existing and new specialist North American institutional precious metals funds (Placement).

    The Placement is priced at $1.25 per share, for the issuance of 12 million new shares (Placement Shares). A Share Purchase Plan (SPP) targeting $2.5 million (before costs) will open to eligible existing Barton shareholders following completion of the Placement, for the issuance of a further 2 million new shares (SPP Shares).

    The Placement is led by Franklin Templeton, one of the world’s largest institutional precious metals funds, which will invest $11.25 million to acquire an initial interest in circa 3.8% of Barton’s expanded equity capital structure. Canaccord Genuity (Australia) Limited (Canaccord) is acting as Lead Manager and Bookrunner, and is working in conjunction with Barton’s internal equity capital markets initiatives to support the Placement. Barton estimates that the total costs of the Placement and SPP will be less than 1.5% of total proceeds.

    Commenting on the capital raise, Barton Managing Director Alexander Scanlon said:

    “Barton has worked diligently during the past five years to lay the foundation for large-scale regional gold production, doing so expeditiously and with minimal dilution, in order to create and preserve maximum future shareholder value. We now have the opportunity to leverage our existing mill to operations at record gold prices, and unlock that value.

    “We are greatly honoured to have Franklin Templeton’s support as we pivot to the next stage of Barton’s evolution, and target the re-rating of Barton’s equity profile to that of a ‘producer’ with a strong, self-funded growth pathway.”

    Capital raise to accelerate key value-add programs

    Since the Company’s last $3m capital raise completed in June 2025, Barton has announced several value-add initiatives for its strategic regional ‘hub and spoke’ model in South Australia’s central Gawler Craton, including:

    • Stage 1 Operations | Central Gawler Mill (CGM)

      • Dual JORC (2012) Mineral Resources upgrades to over 300koz Au adjacent to the CGM, with a preliminary A$26m (±30%) capital cost estimate for reinstatement of the CGM (with upgrades);3

      • The start of a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) targeting commissioning by the end of 2026;4

    • Stage 2 Development | Tunkillia Gold Project

      • The start of ~18,000m reverse circulation (RC) upgrade drilling on the ‘Starter Pits’ modelled to yield ~$1.3bn operating free cash and pay back development 3x over during the first 2.5 years;5

    • Tolmer high-grade silver discovery

      • High-grade drilling assays extending the ‘western silver zone’, and adding high-grade gold;6

      • Soil sampling assays indicating expansive Au-Ag-Pb anomalism and potential extensions;7

      • Completion of diamond drilling (DD) to investigate controls and guide follow up targeting;8

    • Regional M&A | Wudinna Gold Project

      • Acquisition of the Wudinna Gold Project (Wudinna) adding 279koz Au regional mineralisation;9

      • The granting of new tenements at Wudinna, providing a long-term exploration platform;10 and

      • Preliminary metallurgical testwork indicating up to 99% gold recoveries, and the potential to produce a ~20 – 25 g/t Au concentrate for trucking to Barton’s CGM and planned Tunkillia mill.11

    Barton’s ASX-listed shares have also recently become a member of the ASX All Ordinaries Index (All Ordinaries) of the 500 largest companies in the Australian equities market, administered by S&P Dow Jones Indices.12

    Placement size and terms

    The Company received expressions of interest exceeding its targeted placement amount of $15 million (before costs), and will issue 12 million new Placement Shares pursuant to the Company’s available Listing Rule 7.1 capacity. Upon issue, new Placement Shares will rank equally with existing fully paid ordinary shares on issue.

    The Placement issue price of $1.25 per share represents a 3.8% discount to the Company’s last traded price of $1.30 and a 7.6% premium to the Company’s 1 month (20 trading day) volume weighted average closing price (VWAP) of $1.16 (each calculated as at market close on Thursday, 9 October 2025).

    The new Placement Shares represent modest equity dilution of only 5%, preserving value for Barton shareholders. Barton estimates total Placement and SPP costs to be less than 1.5% of total proceeds.

    Placement and SPP proceeds will be used to advance programs targeting commissioning of the CGM for ‘Stage 1′ operations, and Tunkillia Ore Reserves, PFS completion and a Mining Lease application, by the end of 2026.

    Barton has continued to receive further interest in the Placement and reserves the right to increase its size.

    Pro-forma capital structure and treasury balance

    Upon completion of the Placement and SPP, the Company estimates that it will have a pro-forma equity capital structure of approximately 239,961,810 fully paid ordinary shares, with an estimated $23 million cash balance. An Appendix 3B for the proposed issue of the Placement Shares and SPP Shares will follow this announcement.

    Share Purchase Plan

    The Company also intends to offer an SPP to target an additional $2.5 million (before costs) (SPP Offer). Full SPP subscription for $2.5 million would therefore result in the issue of a further 2,000,000 SPP Shares.

    SPP Shares will be issued at the same price as the Placement Shares (SPP Issue Price) and can be purchased from the Company without incurring brokerage or other transaction costs.13 Upon issue, SPP Shares will rank equally with all others existing fully paid ordinary shares on issue.

    The SPP is not underwritten. The Company may raise more or less than $2.5 million. If more than $2.5 million in applications are received, the Directors may in their absolute discretion accept applications (in whole or in part) to raise less than, or more than, $2.5 million, subject to compliance with the ASX Listing Rules.

    Eligible Barton shareholders, being those with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand (Eligible Shareholders) and recorded on the Company’s share register as at 5:00pm (AEDT) on Monday, 13 October 2025 (Record Date), will have the opportunity to apply for up to $30,000 of new SPP Shares each.

    The full terms and conditions of the SPP will be detailed in an offer booklet which is expected to be released to the ASX and dispatched to Eligible Shareholders via their preferred contact method on Thursday, 23 October 2025 (SPP Offer Booklet).

    Barton’s Directors have indicated that, where eligible, they intent to participate in the SPP subject to any Director participation not displacing general public demand from Eligible Investors.

    The SPP Offer is expected to open on Thursday, 23 October 2025, and close at 5:00pm (AEDT) on Thursday, 6 November 2025. The SPP Offer may be closed early by the Company without notice.

    The Company notes that the Company’s last SPP, opened on Tuesday, 9 April 2024 was heavily oversubscribed and closed early after only one week.14 Interested Eligible Shareholders are therefore encouraged to apply as soon as possible following the opening of the SPP.

    Barton will coordinate with its share registry (Computershare) to provide online application facilities to allow expedited applications by all interested Eligible Investors. Further details of these facilities will be provided in the SPP Offer Booklet published to the ASX on Thursday, 23 October 2025.
