Disclaimers & Compliance Statements (cont)

Forward-lookingAll-In-Sustaining Cost estimates have been prepared on a real basis at a project level (i.e. not adjusted for possible future inflation and do not include the effects of corporate costs) and assume an FY25 gold price of A$3,500/oz of gold, declining to A$3,000/oz from FY27. Certain mining related costs are considered expansionary in nature and allocated to growth and mine expansionary capital costs that are not included in all-in-sustaining costs. Any All-In-Sustaining Cost in this presentation are based on the economic assumptions contained in the Company's ASX announcement dated 25 July 2024 titled "5 Year Growth Plan and Equity Raising Technical Document".

JORC COMPLIANCE STATEMENTS

It is a requirement of the ASX Listing Rules that the reporting of Ore Reserves and Mineral Resources in Australia comply with the Joint Ore Reserves Committee's Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC Code). Investors outside Australia should note that while Ore Reserve and Mineral Resource estimates of the Company in this presentation comply with the JORC Code (such JORC Code-compliant ore reserves and mineral resources being "Ore Reserves" and "Mineral Resources" respectively), they may not comply with the relevant guidelines in other countries and, in particular, do not comply with (i) National Instrument 43-101 (Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects) of the Canadian Securities Administrators (the "Canadian NI 43-101 Standards"); or (ii) Item 1300 of Regulation S-K, which governs disclosures of mineral reserves in registration statements filed with the SEC. Information contained in this document describing mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of Canadian or US securities laws.

This presentation contains references to Mineral Resource and Ore Reserves estimates, which have been extracted from the Company's ASX announcement dated 25 July 2024 titled "5 Year Growth Plan and Equity Raising Technical Document". This presentation also contains references to Exploration Results which have been extracted from various Company ASX announcements dated as indicated throughout this presentation. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the said announcements, and in the case of estimates of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves, that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the relevant market announcements continue to apply and have not materially changed. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Persons' findings are presented have not been materially modified from the original market announcements.

Information in this presentation that relates to production targets (including subsets of such targets) was first reported in the Company's ASX announcement dated 25 July 2024 titled "5 Year Growth Plan and Equity Raising Technical Document". Bellevue confirms that all the material assumptions underpinning the production targets, and the forecast financial information derived from the production targets, continue to apply and have not materially changed. The total 5 year plan production includes 10% Inferred Mineral Resources and 90% Indicated Mineral Resources (first three years of the plan are 5% Inferred Mineral Resources). There is a low level of geological confidence associated with Inferred Mineral Resources and there is no certainty that further exploration work will result in the determination of Indicated Mineral Resources or that the production target itself will be realised.

EXPLORATION TARGET

This presentation refers to the following Exploration Target based on the southern plunge extent of the Bellevue Lode system to 800m of depth:

Tonnes

Grade

Ounces

4-10MT

8-10 g/t gold

1.5-2.5Moz

The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature and, as such, there has been insufficient exploration drilling conducted to estimate a Mineral Resource. At this stage it is uncertain if further exploration drilling will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. The Exploration Target has been prepared in accordance with the JORC Code (2012).

The Exploration Target for the 1.3km of strike south of the current edge of recent drilling which will be accessible has been based on:

• The current MRE totals 3.2Moz of Indicated and Inferred, total historic depletion from mining activities of 0.8Moz is additional to current Resources.

• The current MRE covers 2.6km of strike (excluding Southern Belle), by removing Southern Belle the assumed ounce intensity per m of strike to 800m vertical depth is 1,600 ounces.

• The Southern strike extension is a further 1.3km which includes very broadly spaced (250m) drilling which has intersected numerous historic intersections.

• Downhole electromagnetic surveys conducted on both modern and historic drilling has returned significant conductors on the edge of detection radius.

• All ore bearing structures are projected to continue to the south.

• By multiplying the ounce intensity of the Northern recently drilled portion of the lode system for the additional strike extent that will be accessible from the Southern Drill drive and providing suitable range around the mid-point an ounce target of 1.5Moz-2.5Moz was estimated.

• Grade and tonnage ranges were back estimated from the ounce range on the basis of assumed grades based on the current MRE and suitable ranges applied.

Strong execution to date… strategy underway to accelerate growth

Following the successful delivery of the Bellevue Gold Project, the focus is now on growth and margin expansion - Bellevue's accelerated 5 Year Growth Plan to deliver low risk expansion to 250koz1 pa by FY28

Successful project delivery

5 Year Growth Plan to +250koz1 pa

Successfully delivered the project from discovery to production in under 6 years

5 Year Growth Plan provides organic pathway to 250koz1 pa by FY28, while also delivering a reduced AISC:

  • Delivered on time and within budget
  • Commercial Production declared May 2024
  • 80koz gold production in H2 FY24, guidance achieved.
    A$41m operational free cash flow generated in June Quarter FY24 (despite still being in ramp-up)
  • Key aspects of project performing well
  • Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve expansion
    • Probable Ore Reserves have increased +13% net of depletion to 1.51Moz
    • Indicated Mineral Resources have grown +18% to 2.0Moz
  • Current underground development and planned decline development creates the platform for exploration to grow the current high-grade 3.2Moz Resource
  • FY25 production guidance of 165koz-180koz at a project AISC of A$1,750 - 1,850/oz
  • Post the 5 Year Growth Plan, Bellevue to be a leading +250koz1 pa ASX producer, with first-quartile cost positioning
    • Increase in underground ore movement from ~1Mtpa in FY25 to +1.6Mtpa from FY27
    • Increase in processing capacity from 1.0Mtpa to ~1.6Mtpa in FY27, with low capital cost
  • Cost profile set to decrease by ~A$250/oz by FY28 through increasing scale and productivity benefits
  • Exploration program targeting Resource growth (1.5-2.5Moz at 8-10 g/t gold exploration target2)
  • Recent equity raise and proposed debt amendment to unlock cashflows to self-fund the 5 Year Growth Plan

Profitability combined with a derisked balance sheet

FY24 NPAT of $75m and June 2024 quarter free cash flow of $41m highlights cash generating potential Recent capital raising has de-geared balance sheet and created a platform for self-funding growth

De-gearing facilitates self-funding of 5yr growth plan

  • Maiden profit in FY24 of $75m
  • June 2024 Qtr operational Free Cash Flow of $41m3
  • Proforma available liquidity of $102m after proposed debt repayment
  • Life of mine plan submitted to Macquarie for review (in line with standard process). Debt restructure finalisation expected October 2024
  • Restructured debt profile significantly de-risks project execution and allows for self-funding of 5 year growth plan through deferral of remaining principal repayments until 2027
