Announcement PDF ASX Announcement 30 January 2026 | ASX: CRI CRITICA LIMITED Level 2, 16 Altona Street, West Perth, Western Australia ABN 51 119 678 385 T: +61 8 6279 9428 E: admin@critica.limited critica.limited Quarterly Activities Report for the period ending 31 December 2025 Critica Limited (ASX: CRI) (Critica or the Company) is pleased to provide its Quarterly Activities Report for the period ending 31 December 2025. Highlights from the Quarter • Second product validation: A second high-grade mixed rare earth product delivered 86% TREO (different domain), with strong Magnet REE (Nd, Pr, Dy, Tb) and Yttrium grades - confirming repeatability across Jupiter. • Gallium by-product optionality: Testwork demonstrated ~63% Ga₂O₃ leach recovery within the same flowsheet; Jupiter averages ~39 ppm Ga₂O₃ (~70,000 tonnes contained) within the existing 1.8 Bt inferred rare earth resource. • Pilot and hydromet momentum: Commissioning advanced on the 3,000 kg closed- circuit beneficiation pilot at GAVAQ (Hanoi), with parallel hydromet programs at GAVAQ, ANSTO and Minutech-AMML progressing leach optimisation and impurity management. • Funding secured: A$8 million oversubscribed two-tranche placement supported ongoing piloting, metallurgy, Scoping Study inputs and offtake engagement, with Tranche 2 now completed following shareholder approval on 15 January 2026. • Non-dilutive support: $1.0 million R&D refund received in December 2025; Critica also applied to become a Tier 1 partner of the CMCI CRC to support downstream process development. • Investor engagement: Hosted an investor webinar in early December to update investors on activities and outlook. • Strong cash position of $7.2m at Quarter end, plus Tranche 2 funding of $2.7m (before costs) for a total cash position of ~$10m. • Post quarter end - Sedgman appointed to lead Jupiter Scoping Study, supported by Snowden Optiro and SRK. 2 Critica’s CEO Jacob Deysel commented: “Following proof-of-concept achieved in the September quarter, Q4 marked a transition to repeatable, deposit-scale validation at Jupiter. Building on the first high-grade mixed rare earth oxide product delivered in October (84% TREO), the Company successfully produced a second high-grade product grading 86% TREO from a different domain within the resource, including strong magnet rare earth and yttrium grades. This level of consistency provides increased confidence in scale-up potential and downstream partner engagement. “In parallel, testwork confirmed gallium reports to leach solution within the same beneficiation-first flowsheet, reinforcing Jupiter’s potential to deliver multiple critical minerals through a single integrated processing circuit. With commissioning of the 3,000 kg closed-circuit beneficiation pilot advancing at GAVAQ and parallel hydromet programs underway at GAVAQ, ANSTO and Minutech-AMML, the Company is generating decision-grade datasets to support Scoping Study workstreams and the next phase of development.” "With the appointment of engineering firm to lead our Scoping Study in H12026 we are excited about converting Jupiter from a technical success into robust and defensible development pathway". Jupiter Rare Earths Project Project Overview Building on beneficiation and hydromet proof-of-concept achieved during the previous quarter, Critica advanced the Jupiter Project through a phase of repeatable product validation during the December quarter. The successful production of a second high-grade mixed rare earth product from a different domain within the resource confirmed consistency of metallurgical response across the deposit and strengthened confidence in scale-up potential. Jupiter is a large, near-surface clay-hosted rare earth system in Western Australia that continues to demonstrate strong suitability for an upfront beneficiation strategy followed by a smaller downstream hydromet circuit. During the quarter, this development approach was further validated through ongoing pilot commissioning and parallel hydromet programs, which are generating decision-grade datasets to support Scoping Study workstreams. These outcomes mark a clear progression from initial technical validation toward repeatable, deposit- scale performance, positioning Jupiter to advance along a disciplined development pathway focused on efficiency, product quality and downstream optionality. 3 Figure 1: | Resource Model – showing Ga₂O₃ grade distribution across the resource model Category TREO cut-off ppm Million Tonnes TREO1 ppm MREO2 ppm Ga2O3 ppm TREO tonnes MREO tonnes Ga2O3 tonnes Inferred 1,000 1,800 1,700 383 39 2,940,000 682,000 70,100 Inferred 1,800 520 2,200 499 42 1,120,000 258,000 21,700 Table 1: | Jupiter clay hosted REE and Ga Resource at preferred TREO lower cut-offs (refer to 17 November 2025) 1.TREO represents the sum of 14 Rare Earth Elements excluding promethium plus yttrium expressed as oxides 2.MREO represents the sum of neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium and terbium expressed as oxides 4 Metallurgy and Flowsheet Progress During the quarter, metallurgical programs progressed from initial validation to repeatable ore-to- product outcomes. Critica continued to demonstrate a consistent beneficiation-first response, rejecting approximately 95% of mass ahead of leaching and upgrading feed grade by roughly 6–10 times to a concentrate of approximately 1.2–2.0% TREO. Building on delivery of the first high-grade mixed rare earth oxide product reported in October, the Company produced a second high-grade product grading 86% TREO from a different domain within the Jupiter resource and confirmed gallium recovery potential to leach solution within the same integrated flowsheet. Together, these outcomes further strengthen the ore-to-product case and support a smaller downstream hydromet footprint, lower reagent and water intensity, and enhanced optionality for future economic studies. Figure 2: | Schematic of GAVAQ MREO Flowsheet - standard acid-bake and gallium recovery pathway 5 Pilot Plant Beneficiation (Closed Circuit) Commissioning of the 3,000 kg closed-circuit beneficiation pilot at GAVAQ (Hanoi) advanced during the quarter, marking progression from installation and initial testing toward operational readiness. The closed-circuit pilot is designed to treat approximately three tonnes of representative ore to steady- state conditions, validate bench-scale performance in continuous operation, and generate decision- grade datasets including recoveries, concentrate grade and impurity profiles, reagent suite and consumption, operating set-points and variability response. The pilot will also produce bulk concentrate for downstream hydromet testwork, with outputs continuing to feed parallel programs at ANSTO and Minutech-AMML and providing key inputs to Scoping Study workstreams (refer to ASX announcement dated 2 December 2025). Figure 3: | GAVAQ Pilot Plant – cold commissioning of Pilot Plant Hydromet and MREP Production Parallel hydromet programs at ANSTO, Minutech-AMML and GAVAQ continued during the quarter, focused on refining leach conditions, maximising overall recovery and managing impurities to define a product specification suitable for downstream separation partners. During Q4, Critica produced a high-grade mixed rare earth oxide product grading 84% TREO at approximately 78% recovery and subsequently delivered a second high-grade product grading 86% TREO from a different domain within the Jupiter resource. Demonstrating repeatable product quality across multiple domains represents a key de-risking step for scale-up and supports downstream qualification discussions and Scoping Study workstreams. 6 Figure 4: From Ore to MREP – Accelerating Critica’s Disciplined Development Pathway By-Product Opportunity - Gallium Metallurgical analysis during the quarter confirmed that approximately 63% of gallium oxide (Ga₂O₃) reports to leach solution within Critica’s beneficiation-first MREP flowsheet (refer to ASX announcement dated 10 November 2025), indicating potential to recover gallium as a by-product alongside rare earths. The Jupiter Mineral Resource averages approximately 39 ppm Ga₂O₃, representing approximately 70,000 tonnes of contained gallium oxide within the existing 1.8 billion tonne inferred rare earth resource. Critica confirms that gallium forms part of the February 2025 Mineral Resource and is not reported as a standalone resource under ASX Listing Rule 5.8. Further work will focus on variability testing, downstream recovery and marketability, and integration of gallium into future economic studies, recognising its relevance to semiconductor, defence and advanced manufacturing supply chains. Sustainability Profile During the quarter, Critica advanced ESG-relevant workstreams through the progression of pilot-scale beneficiation and downstream hydromet programs. Commissioning of the 3,000 kg closed-circuit pilot at GAVAQ is generating decision-grade data to define process footprint, reagent intensity and impurity deportment ahead of future studies, supporting a more compact and efficient development pathway. Repeatable production of high-grade mixed rare earth products across multiple domains further supports product stewardship and traceability objectives, while confirming consistency required for downstream qualification. In parallel, testwork demonstrating gallium reporting to leach solution 7 highlights the potential to recover multiple critical minerals through a single integrated flowsheet, enhancing resource efficiency and alignment with Western critical-materials supply chains. Jupiter’s clay-hosted mineralisation continues to exhibit very low uranium and thorium levels, favourable for permitting and logistics, and remains well positioned to support responsible development as technical studies advance. Exploration and field work Exploration activity was deliberately limited during the quarter as the Company prioritised metallurgical advancement, pilot commissioning and hydromet optimisation to generate decision- grade datasets for the Jupiter development pathway. Targeting and program design work continued for the Aurora and Juno satellite prospects within the broader Brothers Project area to preserve future growth optionality, with field activities to be scheduled alongside study and permitting priorities. Figure 5: | Brothers and Jupiter Project Location Map Figure 6: | Jupiter Deposit and satellite clay-hosted REE targets Golden Grove North (Premier1 Lithium JV) Post quarter end, Critica and Premier1 executed an Agreement to acquire the remaining interest in the Yalgoo Project tenements for consideration of 32.4m shares in Premier1 (ASX:PLC). Under the agreement Critica will retain rights to Rare Earths across the relevant tenements (E59/2243, E59/2244. E59/2288 and E59/2506). For further details refer to Premier1 Lithium ASX announcement 29 January 2026 found at premier1lithium.com.au Corporate Capital raising: During the quarter, Critica secured A$8 million through an oversubscribed two-tranche placement to fund ongoing pilot-scale beneficiation and metallurgical programs, Jupiter Rare Earths Scoping Study inputs (including drilling), and offtake engagement activities.
