Europa Metals Limited (JSE:EUZ) News - Positive Ore Sorting Results for the Toral Pb, Zn & Ag Project, Spain Europa Metals Ltd (Incorporated and registered in Australia and registered as an external company in the Republic of South Africa) (Registration number 4459850) (External company registration number 2011/116305/10) Share code on the ASX: EUZ Share code on AIM: EUZ Share code on the JSE: EUZ ISIN: AU0000014342 ("Europa Metals" or “the Company”) Positive Ore Sorting Results for the Toral Pb, Zn & Ag Project, Spain Europa Metals, the European focused lead, zinc and silver developer, is pleased to announce positive results in respect of the X-Ray Transmission (“XRT”) ore sorting testwork, carried out by TOMRA GmbH (“TOMRA”) in Germany and overseen by Wardell Armstrong International Ltd (“WAI”) in Cornwall. A bulk sample of siliceous mineralisation and two further discrete carbonate samples (from holes TOD-025D and TOD-028) from the indicated mineral resource zone at the Company’s wholly owned Toral lead, zinc and silver project in the Castilla y León region, Spain (“Toral” or the “Toral Project”) were evaluated by TOMRA. The XRT testwork forms part of a wider metallurgical programme that includes locked cycle flotation testwork and tailings evaluation for backfill. Highlights: • Results from the siliceous bulk sample showed: - Excellent recovery of 95.7% Pb and 94.3% Zn metal - 43.7% mass rejection of waste - An overall enrichment ratio of 1.7 for both the lead and zinc - Zn Equivalent (Pb+Ag) grade increased from 3.56% to 6.00% • Results from hole TOD-025D revealed: - Excellent recovery of 98.9% Pb and 94.7% Zn metal - 46.8% mass rejection of waste - An overall enrichment ratio of 1.9 for lead and 1.8 for zinc - Zn Equivalent (Pb+Ag) grade increased from 6.57% to 12.00% • Results from hole TOD-028 demonstrated: - Excellent recovery of 96.6% Pb and 96.1% Zn metal - 47.7% mass rejection of waste - An overall enrichment ratio of 1.8 for both the lead and zinc - Zn Equivalent (Pb+Ag) grade increased from 4.24% to 7.67% Commenting today, Myles Campion, acting CEO and Executive Chairman of Europa Metals, said: “These latest positive results from TOMRA form part of our ongoing metallurgical work programme for 2022 and enhance the potential to efficiently exploit the resource at Toral. These results build on previous testwork results (announced on 28 August 2020) and demonstrate the potential for further optimisation of the Toral Project.” Details of the Samples Tested WAI is currently undertaking a work programme on metallurgical samples submitted by Europa Metals, representing the expected ore types from Toral: a >700kg bulk sample of siliceous mineralisation and two separate carbonate samples from holes TOD-025D and TOD-028. The three samples submitted to WAI for testing represent the two different styles of mineralisation expected to be encountered during potential future production at Toral. Further details of the representative samples are set out in Table 1 below: 1. Siliceous mineralisation from holes TOD-029 and TOD-034 and their respective daughter holes (TOD-029D, TOD-029D2 and TOD-029D3 and TOD-034D) 2. Carbonate sample from hole TOD-025D 3.

Summary of Ore Sorting During 2020, Europa Metals tested XRT ore sorting on lower grade mineralisation that had not been considered in the 2018 Scoping Study. Further to the successful testwork and a positive 2021 drilling campaign, a bulk sample was submitted to WAI with a view to enhancing the project’s parameters, including: • Enabling ore that may otherwise be sub-economic based on grade to be processed; • Reducing the size of the concentrator plant (milling and flotation circuits) whilst maintaining the same overall mining rate; • Improving the performance of the concentrator plant by removing waste from the feed; and • Allowing higher mining rates without necessarily having to increase the size of the processing plant. The sorting results for all the samples submitted are considered to be excellent, with between approximately 43% - 48% of the mass rejected at >95% Pb recovery and >94% Zn recovery. The resulting enrichment ratios are generally >1.7, in regard to the feed grade to milling and flotation. Toral Ore Sorting Analysis The results are presented in detail in Table 2 below. Overall, the data showed that in excess of 94% of the overall lead and zinc in the feed could be recovered whilst rejecting more than 43% of the original mass. The “sorted” product will now go into a series of flotation work programmes with WAI.
