Following Admission, the total issued share capital of the Company will comprise 121,962,212 ordinary shares.

Ryan Mee, Chief Executive Officer of Fulcrum Metals, commented: "I would like to thank our shareholders for their strong support in approving the amendment and conversion of the Company's CLNs and the CLN holders for converting into equity. Importantly, this includes significant participation by the executive team, underlining their long-term commitment to Fulcrum's strategy.
"By removing approximately £430,000 of debt and replacing it with equity, we have strengthened the balance sheet and simplified the corporate structure. This creates a more resilient platform from which to deliver our strategy of turning waste into gold and creating long-term value for shareholders.
"Fulcrum will now press forward with advancing its Teck Hughes Mine tailings project, including a comprehensive augur drilling programme, Phase 3 optimisation and scale up of the concept study, the completion of a NI 43-101 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate, and environmental baseline assessment works.
I look forward to updating the market as we deliver on these key milestones."

About Fulcrum Metals PLC
Fulcrum Metals PLC (AIM: FMET) is an AIM listed technology led natural resources company focused on recovery of precious metals from mine tailings (previously milled and processed ore) in Canada using environmentally friendly leaching technology developed by Extrakt Process Solutions LLC and its associates (together "Extrakt"). The Company's initial projects are at the former Teck-Hughes and Sylvanite mines, located at the Kirkland Lake region in Ontario. In addition, the Company has interests in a portfolio of highly prospective mineral exploration and development projects in both Ontario and Saskatchewan Canada.
Fulcrum has exclusive licenced use of Extrakt's proven leaching technology on gold mine waste sites over the mining districts of Timmins and Kirkland Lake. These are two of Canada's biggest gold camps with a history of over 110Moz Au produced over the past 100 years and more than 70 documented legacy mine waste sites. This presents Fulcrum with opportunity to develop into a significant environmentally friendly gold producing entity in the near term.
