The prospectus documents are accessible through SEDAR+ and can be obtained from the underwriters.

C$34.75 Million Concurrent Private Placement with Orion Mine Finance
Orion Mine Finance Management LLP, through a fund it manages or a designated affiliate, will subscribe for 7,897,727 common shares at C$4.40 per share for gross proceeds of C$34.75 million. The private placement will be conducted on a non-brokered basis. The transaction is subject to customary conditions including completion of the public offering and TSX Venture Exchange approval. The public offering is not contingent upon completion of the private placement.
The company anticipates entering into a participation rights agreement with Orion. Under this agreement, Orion will have the right to participate pro rata in future equity offerings and a right to match any offer to provide project financing, acquisition financing or production-linked financing to the company. These provisions establish an ongoing relationship between Bravo and Orion as the project advances.
Subject to mutually agreed milestones and customary conditions, Orion intends to commit to provide up to US$300 million of financing support in the form of equity, debt and other financing instruments. The company will receive an indicative non-binding term sheet proposal promptly upon notice that specified milestones have been met. This arrangement provides a potential future financing pathway as the Luanga Project progresses through development stages.
US$300 Million Indicative Financing Support Framework Terms
Bravo Mining has entered into a non-binding indicative term sheet with Orion Mine Finance outlining potential financing support of up to US$300 million. The framework contemplates a combination of equity, debt and other financing instruments. Orion will provide a non-binding term sheet proposal promptly upon notice that mutually agreed milestones have been met.
The financing support is subject to satisfaction of milestones, conditions precedent and customary closing requirements. The specific terms and structure of any financing will be determined based on project requirements at the time the milestones are achieved. The arrangement is indicative and non-binding at this stage.
The term sheet establishes a potential financing relationship between Bravo and Orion as the Luanga Project advances. The US$300 million quantum represents the upper limit of potential financing support under the framework. Actual financing provided, if any, will depend on project developments, completion of technical studies, and satisfaction of conditions specified in any future binding agreements.
Looking Ahead
The combined proceeds from the public offering and private placement will be allocated to several areas. The company plans to advance the Luanga PGM+Au+Ni Project through completion of a preliminary feasibility study and, if results support it, a feasibility study. Funds will also be used to expand mineral resources at the Luanga Project and continue exploration of iron oxide copper gold mineralisation and nickel-platinum group metal-rich massive sulphides within the property. A portion will be allocated to general working capital purposes.
The offering is scheduled to close on or about January 20, 2026, subject to receipt of all necessary approvals from the TSX Venture Exchange and satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Following closure, the company will commence its technical programme using the proceeds as outlined in the offering documents.
