Premier African Minerals Limited

 Issue of Equity

Premier African Minerals Limited ("Premier" or the "Company") has issued today, conditional on admission, 2,000,000,000 new Ordinary Shares of no-par value in the Company to be held on trust for China Zenith Capital Ltd ("Settlement Shares").

The Settlement Shares will be sold under orderly market conditions over a period of time with the proceeds applied in settlement of the £1,383,092.27 liability (excluding interest) owed by the Company to China Zenith Capital Ltd ("Zenith"), as reported on 28 June 2024 in Premier's Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ending December 2023 (the "Zenith Liability"). The share authority for the issue of the Settlement Shares was approved by Premier shareholders at the General Meeting of the Company held on 29 July 2024.

To the extent net proceeds from the sale of the Settlement Shares are insufficient to meet the Zenith Liability, either additional ordinary shares will need to be issued by the Company (and sold for the account of Zenith), or the Company will make a payment in cash of any outstanding balance. Any proceeds from the sale of the Settlement Shares in excess of the Zenith Liability shall be retained by the Company.

The Settlement Shares will, when issued, rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares and any sales of the Settlement Shares will be handled under the guidance of the Company under orderly market conditions.

Premier will announce once full and final settlement of the Zenith Liability has occurred.

Admission

Application is being made for the Settlement Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and admission is expected to take place on or around 14 August 2024.

Total Voting Rights

Following the issue of the Settlement Shares, the Company's issued share capital consists of 34,281,688,211 Ordinary Shares, with voting rights.

This figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculation by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
