Southern Cross Gold announces inclusion in the S&P/ASX300 Index

The CHESS Depositary Interests (“CDI”) of the Company will be added to the Standard & Poors (“S&P”) ASX300 Index effective prior to Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) market open on Monday 22 September 2025. (S&P/ASX300) Michael Hudson, Southern Cross Gold's President & CEO, commented, "We are delighted to be included in the S&P/ASX300 Index, which recognizes our team's hard work and the support of our shareholders in building Southern Cross Gold into a significant player in the Australian gold and critical metals sector, and now one of Australia's 300 largest companies. This inclusion will increase our visibility to a broader range of investors and potentially improve the liquidity of our shares, benefiting all stakeholders. We look forward to continuing to engage with investment analysts, institutional fund managers, and investors both in Australia and internationally as we continue to build one of the world’s most significant gold-antimony assets at Sunday Creek." The S&P/ASX 300 is designed to provide investors with broader exposure to the Australian equity market. The index is liquid and float-adjusted, and it measures up to 300 of Australia’s largest securities by float-adjusted market capitalization. The S&P/ASX 300 index covers the large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap components of the S&P/ASX Index Series. This index is designed to address investment managers' needs to benchmark against a broad opportunity set characterized by sufficient size and liquidity. Southern Cross Gold's inclusion in this index is expected to attract even further interest from institutional investors, index funds, and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that track the All Ordinaries, potentially enhancing the Company's visibility and trading liquidity. Southern Cross Gold’s CDIs commenced trading on the ASX under the ticker symbol SX2 on January 15, 2025. Each CDI represents one fully paid share of common stock of Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd. About Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd. Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd. (TSXV:SXGC, ASX:SX2) controls the Sunday Creek Gold-Antimony Project located 60 kilometres north of Melbourne, Australia. Sunday Creek has emerged as one of the Western world's most significant gold and antimony discoveries, with exceptional drilling results including 69 intersections exceeding 100 g/t AuEq x m from just 70.7 km of drilling. The mineralization follows a "Golden Ladder" structure over 12 km of strike length, with confirmed continuity from surface to 1,100 m depth. Sunday Creek’s strategic value is enhanced by its dual-metal profile, with antimony contributing 20% of the in-situ value alongside gold. This has gained increased significance following China's export restrictions on antimony, a critical metal for defence and semiconductor applications. Southern Cross’ inclusion in the US Defense Industrial Base Consortium (DIBC) and Australia's AUKUS-related legislative changes position it as a potential key Western antimony supplier. Importantly, Sunday Creek can be developed primarily based on gold economics, which reduces antimony-related risks while maintaining strategic supply potential.
