Quarterly Activities Report
June 2026
Elevra Lithium Limited (“ELV” or “Company”) (ASX: ELV; NASDAQ: ELVR) delivered another strong operational performance, establishing monthly production records, and a Strategic Financing
Package that enables near-term growth.
North American Lithium
| • |
Safety performance at North American Lithium (NAL) remained strong during the June 2026 quarter, with no lost-time injuries recorded and continued improvement in risk management and operational
discipline across the site.
|
| • |
Ore mined remained stable quarter on quarter (QoQ) with 372,938 wet metric tonnes (wmt) mined in line with process plant requirements.
|
| • |
Process plant utilisation remained high at 92% following a record March 2026 quarter and was the third best quarter on record despite a planned shutdown. Strong crushing plant performance continued to support milling utilisation.
|
| • |
The combination of high mill utilisation, throughput, and improved feed grades resulted in lithium recoveries of 71% for the June 2026 quarter, a 5% QoQ improvement.
|
| • |
Spodumene concentrate production increased by 15% QoQ to 54,479 dry metric tonnes (dmt) at an average grade of 5.0%. This was the second-best performance on record and included a new monthly
record of 22,202 dmt produced in May 2026 when utilisation and recoveries peaked at 98% and 73%, respectively.
|
| • |
As previously disclosed1, spodumene sales were 33,977 dmt at an average realised selling price (FOB) of US$921/dmt, resulting in revenue of US$31 million. This was a 39% QoQ
decline in tonnes sold and a 37% decrease in the average realised price per tonne as the Company sold the final tonnes under a multi-year contractual agreement that included a lagged pricing mechanism. This legacy contract has now been
finalised and pricing in Q1 FY27 and beyond is expected to be more representative of spodumene spot prices.
|
| • |
Unit operating costs per tonne sold (FOB) for NAL were US$907/dmt, a 3% increase compared to US$884 in the prior quarter, primarily reflecting the release of higher cost inventory
resulting from the timing of the planned major plant shutdown costs in April and the sustained mining intensity.
|
| • |
Capital expenditure of US$4 million for the June 2026 quarter was related to various planned NAL sustaining capital projects and the NAL Expansion Scoping Study.

Growth Projects
NAL Expansion
| • |
Elevra released an Updated Scoping Study for the NAL Expansion evaluating a staged approach which accelerates production growth by two years and more than doubles the project’s incremental post-tax NPV8% to C$969 million
while maintaining total capital expenditure of C$366 million2.
|
| • |
The Company reached a major milestone with the official groundbreaking of the fully funded NAL Expansion and key equipment orders placed to reduce schedule risk3.
|
Moblan
| • |
Elevra purchased the spodumene concentrate offtake rights held by an investment vehicle managed by Waratah Capital Advisors, giving the Company control over 100% of its pro rata offtake entitlement, which is 60% of Moblan’s annual
production4.
|
| • |
To continue advancing project development, Elevra progressed environmental baseline studies and began preparations for an updated Moblan Scoping Study.
|
Carolina Lithium
| • |
Elevra maintained engagement with the North Carolina Division of Air Quality to progress the project’s air permit while also meeting with local county leadership to provide updates on project activities and reinforce the Company’s
commitment to responsible project development.
|
Corporate
| • |
In May 2026, Elevra announced a Strategic Financing Package to fully fund the NAL Expansion comprised of a US$196 million (A$275 million) institutional placement and US$102 million (C$145 million) in Convertible Notes to be issued to
the Canada Growth Fund (CGF) across two tranches. The issuance of the Upfront Tranche of Convertible Notes was approved by shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting on 16 July 20265 6, with proceeds of approximately US$46 million (C$65 million) from the Upfront Tranche to be received in Q3 CY26. Shareholder
approval will be sought at the appropriate time for the issuance of a further C$80M Conditional Tranche of Convertible Notes. A US$11 million (A$16 million) Share Purchase Plan for eligible retail shareholders was also completed7.
|
| • |
Elevra agreed to sell its interest in the Ewoyaa Project in Ghana to Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt Co., Ltd. (Huayou) for approximately US$71 million in cash (before fees) to streamline the Company’s
growth portfolio and remove future funding obligations. This transaction is expected to complete in Q3 CY268.
|
| • |
Cash at the end of the June 2026 quarter was US$255 million, which did not include the proceeds generated from the sale of the Ewoyaa Project interest or the draw down of the first tranche of the CGF convertible note. Net cash was
US$200 million (March 2026: US$59 million), with the prepayment facility balance of US$55 million (March 2026: US$54 million). The prepayment facility was subsequently reduced by US$9
million in July 2026.
|
| • |
Guidance for FY27 will be provided with FY26 Full Year Results in late August.

Management Commentary
The June 2026 quarter was a defining period for Elevra as we delivered strong operational performance at North American Lithium, secured a transformational financing package and further
strengthened the foundations for our next phase of growth.
At NAL, the team demonstrated that the operational improvements achieved over recent quarters are sustainable, delivering high mill utilisation and lithium recoveries that translated into a new monthly production
record in May 2026. The continued improvement in recoveries is particularly notable and reflects the benefits of targeted optimisation initiatives, strong crushing plant performance and enhancements to the processing circuit. These achievements
reinforce our confidence in the operation and the opportunity to continue improving performance as we execute the staged expansion plan.
While operational performance remained strong, realised pricing during the June 2026 quarter was impacted by deliveries into a legacy offtake contract that contained an embedded pricing mechanism linked to historical
lithium prices. Because of the lagged pricing mechanism, the significant rise in lithium prices seen in recent months was not fully reflected in the pricing Elevra received, but importantly, all obligations under this legacy contract have now
been satisfied and we expect future pricing to better reflect spodumene spot prices.
A major highlight of the June 2026 quarter was the successful completion of our Strategic Financing Package, which fully funds the NAL Brownfield Expansion and provides support for the advancement of Moblan toward a
Final Investment Decision. The NAL Expansion is a key near-term milestone for Elevra and is expected to deliver meaningful benefits through increased production capacity and lower unit operating costs, further enhancing the quality and
competitiveness of our North American asset base.
We were also pleased to welcome Canada Growth Fund as a strategic partner through participation in the Strategic Financing Package. Canada Growth Fund’s investment mandate is strongly aligned with our objective to
develop a local critical minerals supply chain, making it a strong partner as we continue to advance our portfolio. We believe this relationship also creates opportunities to collaborate as we pursue future growth initiatives across our
business.
During the June 2026 quarter, we also announced the sale of our interest in the Ewoyaa Project in Ghana. This transaction represents a disciplined portfolio decision that allows us to sharpen our focus on our core
North American assets, simplify our corporate structure and redeploy capital into opportunities where we see the greatest potential to create value for shareholders.
We believe the outlook for lithium remains positive, and while prices have moderated from the multi-year highs experienced in recent months, market fundamentals remain supportive and underpinned by continued demand
growth. At the same time, industry-wide underinvestment during the recent downturn has constrained the pace of new supply growth, reinforcing our view that high-quality projects in strategic jurisdictions will continue to play an increasingly
important role in meeting future demand.

Health and Safety
Safety remains a core priority across Elevra’s operations. Health and safety performance remained strong during the June 2026 quarter with two recordable injuries and no lost-time injuries. This trend of significant
improvements in safety performance since the restart of NAL operations in March 2023 is enabled by the growing maturity of our risk management culture and the commitment of our teams to safe operations.
As we move forward with our growth plans, our focus remains on maintaining the same culture of risk awareness, accountability, and operational excellence.
ESG and Community Engagement
As Elevra continues to advance the NAL Expansion, the Company engaged with several local stakeholder groups to present and discuss the status of current operations and the expansion project. These consultations
provided an opportunity to gather feedback, identify concerns, and understand community expectations which will guide planning and further engagement efforts.
Environmental studies required for the NAL Expansion progressed along with engineering work to define the expected impacts of the expansion and support permitting, project design and development. Permitting is not
expected to constrain the initial stage of the expansion, allowing development to progress in parallel with the advancement and finalisation of longer-term permitting requirements.
For Moblan, environmental studies and associated permitting activities represent the critical path for project development. Ongoing technical and engineering work will continue to refine the project scope and inform
permitting requirements and timelines.

North American Lithium
Mining
Ore mined of 372,938 wmt was 1% higher than the previous quarter.
Mining activity during the June 2026 quarter continued to focus on executing the planned mine development sequence while optimising ore availability and feed quality. As was planned, ore uncovered decreased by 20%
during the June 2026 quarter as mining progressed through areas associated with historical underground stopes, which resulted in a 13% increase in waste mined to maintain access to ore zones. Ore mined remained consistent QoQ and totalled
372,938 wmt and was aligned to processing plant requirements.
The feed grade of ore delivered to the ROM stockpile averaged 1.06% Li2O for the June 2026 quarter, which was a marginal decline from 1.07% Li2O in the previous quarter, while the iron content
continued to decline as expected.
Production
Production increased to 54,479 dmt of spodumene concentrate at an average grade of 5.0% for the June 2026 quarter.
The mill processed 358,806 tonnes of ore during the June 2026 quarter (up 4% QoQ), with continued focus on ore sorting performance at the ROM stockpile and the crushing circuit reducing iron content in the mill feed.
Mill utilisation was 92%, a 2% QoQ decrease from the record performance achieved in the March 2026 quarter. The modest decline was due to a major planned shutdown in April 2026, but high mill utilisation in May and
June 2026 yielded the third best quarterly performance since the restart of operations. Record crushing plant performance, with 384,307 wmt crushed during the period (+10% QoQ), contributed to operational stability.
An improvement in the average feed grade to 1.07% Li2O in the June 2026 quarter (vs. 1.03% Li2O in the March 2026 quarter) and successful blending of iron content yielded meaningful benefits as
the Li2O recovery for the June 2026 quarter was 71% (an increase of 5% QoQ). In addition to the improved feed grade, the uplift in recoveries was aided by the high level of mill utilisation, throughput and process modifications made
in the March 2026 quarter.
Figure 1: NAL Global Recovery and Mill Utilisation
Figure 2: NAL Concentrate Production and Unit Operating Costs (per tonne sold)
Sales
NAL revenue was US$31 million for the June 2026 quarter, impacted by a decline in tonnes sold and average realised pricing due to shipping schedule and legacy lagged pricing mechanisms.
Revenue declined by 61% QoQ as a result of a 39% decrease in spodumene concentrate tonnes sold and a 37% decrease in the average realised selling price per tonne (FOB). Total spodumene concentrate tonnes sold during
the June 2026 quarter was 33,977 dmt, with two cargoes sold during the quarter.
The average realised selling price (FOB) for the June 2026 quarter was US$921/dmt. Realised pricing declined due to the contractual pricing mechanism contained within a customer contract which referenced historical
lithium hydroxide prices. All 33,977 dmt sold were subject to this lagged pricing mechanism, and the delivered volumes satisfied all remaining obligations under that multi-year offtake agreement. As a result, there will be no further deliveries
subject to this lagged pricing mechanism and Elevra expects future realised pricing to align more closely with spot spodumene pricing.
A total of 40,863 dmt of spodumene concentrate finished goods was stockpiled at NAL, in transit or at the port as at 30 June 2026. We expect a shipment of approximately 32,500 dmt will be completed in July with a
further shipment expected by the end of the quarter.
Costs
Unit operating costs per tonne sold (FOB) increased 3% quarter on quarter to US$907/dmt sold reflecting the release of higher cost inventory.
Controllable costs increased 16% QoQ, broadly in line with the overall increase in concentrate production.
Total ore mining and waste stripping costs increased by 13% QoQ, consistent with the planned 13% increase in total material moved.
Total ore processing costs increased 27% QoQ, driven by the higher concentrate volumes and the timing of the planned major shutdown in April 2026, compared with no major shutdown activity in the previous quarter. The
combined impact of planned mining intensity and timing of plant shutdown contributed to the release of higher cost inventory during the June 2026 quarter.
Growth Projects
NAL Brownfield Expansion
Elevra released an Updated Scoping Study for the NAL Brownfield Expansion which outlined the enhanced project economics and increased strategic value derived from a staged development strategy that accelerated
production growth while maintaining the total capital expenditure estimate12.
The Updated Scoping Study demonstrates a significant improvement in the value of the expansion project, with the incremental post-tax net present value increasing to C$969 million, more than double that outlined in
the previous study13. The staged approach allows Elevra to progressively increase production capacity, optimise operating performance and lower unit costs through a series of defined
milestones, reducing execution risk and improving capital efficiency.
Following the successful completion of a capital raise in May 2026, which fully funded all three stages of the expansion14, the Company announced the
official groundbreaking of the expansion and placed orders for key equipment to derisk the planned delivery schedule15.
Strategically, the NAL Brownfield Expansion reinforces Elevra’s position as a leading North American lithium producer at a time when demand for secure and transparent battery material supply chains continues to grow.
By delivering additional production earlier, generating cash flow sooner and preserving flexibility to respond to market conditions, the staged development model provides a disciplined pathway for growth.
Moblan
At the Moblan Project, activities during the June 2026 quarter focused on advancing the key workstreams required to support a future Final Investment Decision (FID) following
the successful completion of the May 2026 capital raise14. Permitting remains the critical path for development and Elevra’s immediate priorities are centred on advancing baseline environmental studies and associated permitting
activities.
Elevra completed the purchase and termination of the existing spodumene concentrate offtake agreement held by an investment vehicle managed by Waratah Capital Advisors Ltd16. The transaction strengthens Elevra’s long-term position at Moblan by eliminating a life-of-mine sales commitment priced at a discount to prevailing market conditions, allowing the Company to regain full control
of its attributable share of Moblan’s annual production and providing increased flexibility to structure future sales and financing opportunities as the project advances toward development.
In parallel, the Company has commenced work to review and update Moblan’s 2024 Definitive Feasibility Study to incorporate the project’s expanded mineral resource base and further refine the development pathway.

Carolina Lithium
During the June 2026 quarter, Elevra continued to advance permitting and stakeholder engagement activities for the Carolina Lithium Project. The Company maintained its engagement with the North Carolina Division of
Air Quality to progress the air permitting process toward public comment while continuing to work collaboratively with local, state and federal stakeholders. Members of Elevra’s senior leadership team also met with local Gaston County
leadership to provide updates on recent project development activities.
Western Australia
Morella Lithium Joint Venture Project
Elevra has a 49% equity interest in the Morella Lithium Joint Venture, which holds lithium rights in the Pilbara and South Murchison regions. The joint venture is managed by Morella Corporation Limited (ASX: 1MC).
Following completion of the March 2026 20-hole reverse circulation (RC) drill program at Mt Edon in the South Murchison, assay results testing the Sophie pegmatite were
returned. The assay results continued to demonstrate broad zones of rubidium mineralisation and identified several higher-grade zones, reinforcing confidence in the continuity and scale potential of the mineralised pegmatite system.
The assay results provided the dataset required to support the preparation of a maiden JORC Mineral Resource Estimate, while ongoing metallurgical test work continues to evaluate development opportunities associated
with the project’s rubidium mineralisation and associated lithium potential.
Tabba Tabba
Elevra holds the lithium and pegmatite rights over the Tabba Tabba project (E45/2364), where exploration is targeting gabbro hosted, flat lying spodumene pegmatite systems. The lease is well located being directly
south and along strike from known lithium mineralisation.
Planned exploration activities remain focused on drill testing favourable geology along the western flank of the Corridor Gabbro in the North drill area and the Pascal pegmatite cluster, which is located approximately
3km along strike to the south and has untested pegmatite occurrences.
Heritage surveys will precede initial RC drilling later in calendar year 2026.
Corporate
Strategic Financing Package to Fund Growth Projects
During the June 2026 quarter, Elevra announced a Strategic Financing Package comprising an equity raising and the issuance of convertible notes to Canada Growth Fund (CGF),
securing the funding required to execute the Company’s near-term growth strategy17.
The financing included a fully underwritten US$196 million (A$275 million)18 (before fees) institutional placement and US$102 million (C$145 million)
Convertible Notes investment from Canada Growth Fund. The Convertible Notes will be issued across two tranches, an Upfront Tranche of US$46 million (C$65 million) and a Conditional Tranche of US$56 million (C$80 million) worth of Convertible
Notes. Notably, issuance of the Upfront Tranche was approved by shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting on 16 July 202619, while issuance of the Conditional Tranche is
subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions which includes Elevra’s election to proceed with drawing on the facility and shareholder approval.
In conjunction with the Strategic Financing Package, Elevra offered a Share Purchase Plan (SPP) to eligible existing shareholders and raised an additional US$11 million (A$16
million) in proceeds20.
The proceeds from the Strategic Financing Package are expected to fully fund the staged NAL Brownfield Expansion, allowing the Company to plan and execute its multi-year expansion plans with certainty, and provide
funding to advance the Moblan Project through pre-development work towards FID.
The strengthened capital position provides Elevra with the flexibility to progress key workstreams across its growth portfolio while maintaining sufficient liquidity to operate through market cycles.
Sale of Ewoyaa Project Interest
Elevra entered into a binding agreement to divest its rights and interests in the Ewoyaa Project, including its associated offtake rights, to Huayou, with completion expected in Q1 FY2721. Subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent and completion in accordance with its terms, the transaction will provide Elevra with approximately US$71 million in cash before fees and is independent of
Huayou’s separate proposed acquisition of Atlantic Lithium (ASX: A11). The divestment supports Elevra’s strategy of simplifying its corporate and operational structure, reducing complexity associated with Ewoyaa’s joint venture and offtake
arrangements, and eliminating future capital commitments to the project while increasing the Company’s focus on advancing its North American lithium portfolio.

Cash
Cash and cash equivalents increased by US$142 million to end the June 2026 quarter with a resulting balance of US$255 million (net cash US$200 million)22.
NAL generated profit from operations of US$1 million for the June 2026 quarter primarily due to lower sales volumes and lower realised prices compared to the March 2026 quarter. Overall, NAL reported a net operating
cash outflow of US$50 million primarily as a result of unfavourable net working capital movements, driven by higher trade receivables due to the timing of receipts (US$30 million) and higher finished goods inventories (US$18 million).
Capital expenditure in the June 2026 quarter was US$4 million relating to various planned NAL sustaining capital projects and the NAL Expansion Scoping Study.
The balance of the prepayment facility, which relates to advance payments based on the value of certain committed future sales of spodumene concentrate was US$55 million at the end of the June 2026 quarter (March
2026: US$54 million). The prepayment facility was subsequently reduced by US$9 million in July 2026.
The Group reported a net cash outflow of US$6 million for the June 2026 quarter which was predominantly corporate expenditure.

About Elevra Lithium
Elevra Lithium Limited (ASX: ELV; NASDAQ: ELVR) is North America’s largest hard-rock lithium producer with a diversified portfolio of high-quality assets across Québec
(Canada), the United States, and Western Australia.
Our flagship operation, the North American Lithium (NAL) mine in Québec, Canada has successfully ramped up production of spodumene concentrate, supported
by ongoing operational enhancements to increase recovery rates, throughput, and mill utilisation. Following a Mineral Resource upgrade, Elevra completed a Scoping Study for a brownfield expansion to increase NAL’s annual spodumene concentrate
production and reduce unit operating costs.
Complementing NAL, the Moblan Lithium Project in central Québec represents one of the largest undeveloped spodumene resources in North America, with a Mineral Resource of 121 Mt @ 1.19% Li₂O.
Development activities are progressing with feasibility studies targeting a large-scale, long-life operation capable of supplying both domestic and international markets.
