Introduction of Employee Benefit Trust Scheme

80 Mile PLC ('80 Mile' or the 'Company'), the AIM, FSE, and OTC listed exploration and development Company, announces that the Company has established an Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT") scheme for use as an incentive plan for its current and future directors and employees. The EBT will facilitate the award of shares to incentivise long-term commitment, without immediate tax implications.

The Company intends to allocate up to 10% of its issued ordinary share capital, funded by Company contributions or the issuance of new ordinary shares of the Company. The shares will be held in the EBT, and released upon meeting vesting and performance conditions linked to milestones. All executive directors and employees of 80 Mile are eligible.

 

The EBT has been established in order to:

 

·      Align the interests of directors and employees with shareholders.

·      Incentivise long-term value creation through exploration and development success.

·      Retain and motivate key talent in a competitive industry.

·      Ensure compliance with AIM regulations and good corporate governance.

About 80 Mile Plc:

80 Mile Plc, listed on the London AIM market, Frankfurt Stock Exchange, and the U.S. OTC Market under the ticker BLLYF, is an exploration and development company focused on high-grade critical metals in Tier 1 jurisdictions. With multiple projects in Greenland, as well as a developing industrial gas and biofuels business in Italy, 80 Mile offers both portfolio and commodity diversification focused on base metals, precious metals, and industrial gas while expanding into sustainable fuels and clean energy solutions in Tier 1 jurisdictions. 80 Mile's strategy is centred on advancing key projects while creating value through partnerships and strategic acquisitions.

80 Mile's recent acquisition of White Flame Energy and the Jameson licenses expands its portfolio into the energy and gas sector, adding large-scale licenses for industrial gas, natural gas, and liquids in East Greenland. Approved by shareholders in July 2024, this acquisition diversifies the Company's assets and aligns with its strategy to contribute to sustainable energy solutions, while also exploring conventional energy resources.

The Disko-Nuussuaq nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE project in Greenland is a primary focus for 80 Mile, 100% owned by 80 Mile PLC. Seven priority targets exhibiting spatial characteristics indicative of potential deposits on a scale comparable to renowned mining operations such as Norilsk, Voisey's Bay, and Jinchuan, will be advanced by the Company.

The Dundas Ilmenite Project, 80 Mile's most advanced asset in northwest Greenland, is fully with a JORC-compliant Mineral Resource of 117 Mt at 6.1% ilmenite and an offshore Exploration Target of up to 530 Mt. Dundas is poised to become a major supplier of high-quality ilmenite. Recent discoveries of hard rock titanium mineralization, with bedrock samples showing nearly double the ilmenite content of previous estimates, further enhance the project's world-class potential. 80 Mile owns 100% of the Dundas Ilmenite Project under its subsidiary Dundas Titanium A/S in Greenland.

In June 2025, 80 Mile entered into a definitive agreement to divest its 100% interest in the Kangerluarsuk zinc-lead-silver project in Greenland to Amaroq Minerals Ltd. Under the terms of the agreement, 80 Mile will receive US$500,000 in Amaroq Minerals shares upon completion, and US$1,500,000 in cash or shares upon the discovery of an economic deposit, as defined by a JORC or NI 43-101 compliant resource that supports development.
