VANCOUVER, BC / PERTH, AUSTRALIA, AU / ACCESS Newswire / October 7, 2025 / Sarama Resources Ltd. ("Sarama" or the "Company") (ASX:SRR)(TSX-V:SWA) is pleased to report that on 7 October 2025, it completed the second tranche of the previously announced A$2.6m equity placement (the "Placement") (refer to Sarama's news releases dated 30 June 2025 and 9 July 2025).

The second tranche of the Placement ("Tranche 2") consisted of 28,888,889 free attaching unlisted options (each a "Placement Option") and 19,166,666 broker options (each a "Broker Option" and together with the Placement Options, the "Options"), with each Option exercisable at A$0.09 and expiring on 30 November 2028. The issuance of the Tranche 2 Options was subject to shareholder approval which was obtained at the special meeting held on 2 October 2025 (the "Meeting").

The first tranche of the Placement, completed on 9 July 2025, raised aggregate gross proceeds of A$2,600,000 with the Company issuing 86,666,667 CDIs at an issue price of A$0.03 per CDI.

Tranche 2 of the Placement was issued to institutional and other sophisticated and professional investors upon receipt of shareholder approval, as required by the ASX Listing Rules, at the Meeting. An Appendix 3G was announced to the Australian Stock Exchange ("ASX") on 7 October 2025 and provides further detail on the issue of Tranche 2.

Tranche 3 of the Placement is scheduled for imminent completion and will consist of 3,333,333 CDIs and 1,111,111 attaching options to a director, Mr Andrew Dinning ("Director CDIs").

CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

Information in this news release that is not a statement of historical fact constitutes forward-looking information. Such forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, statements regarding the intended use of proceeds from the Placement and receiving the approval of the TSXV. Actual results, performance or achievements of the Company may vary from the results suggested by such forward-looking statements due to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors. Such factors include, among others, that the business of exploration for gold and other precious minerals involves a high degree of risk and is highly speculative in nature; mineral resources are not mineral reserves, they do not have demonstrated economic viability, and there is no certainty that they can be upgraded to mineral reserves through continued exploration; few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines; geological factors; the actual results of current and future exploration; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be evaluated, as well as those factors disclosed in the Company's publicly filed documents.

There can be no assurance that any mineralisation that is discovered will be proven to be economic, or that future required regulatory licensing or approvals will be obtained. However, the Company believes that the assumptions and expectations reflected in the forward-looking information are reasonable. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things, the Company's ability to carry on its exploration activities, the sufficiency of funding, the timely receipt of required approvals, the price of gold and other precious metals, that the Company will not be affected by adverse political and security-related events, the ability of the Company to operate in a safe, efficient and effective manner and the ability of the Company to obtain further financing as and when required and on reasonable terms. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information.

Sarama does not undertake to update any forward-looking information, except as required by applicable laws.
