## Contributions and company outcomes

### Gorilla reported resource and exploration growth in 2025 [daniel-kendall_gg8_growth_2025]

2025; reported November 2025 · issuer reported · medium materiality

The November 2025 issuer presentation reported approximately 650 koz of resources added across Western Australian projects in 2025, three high-grade discoveries at Comet Vale, a maiden Vivien resource and a fourfold Mulwarrie resource increase. Its later February 2026 presentation reported a 1.5 Moz Western Australian resource base, while planned drilling remained prospective. These are company-reported exploration milestones, not production, profitability or individual executive performance.

**Attribution:** Responsibility unresolved. Tenure overlap and each person’s individual contribution are not established by the presentation; it describes company outcomes only.

### Finance leadership and capital raising experience [daniel-kendall_career_deep]

Prior roles; exact dates not stated · analyst inference · medium materiality

Issuer biography describes approximately 20 years in senior finance roles, multiple CFO/company-secretary positions and a resource-sector focus. It says Kendall was CFO and Company Secretary of Delta Lithium and helped secure over A$100 million in capital raisings; it also identifies a Bachelor of Commerce, CA membership, Governance Institute of Australia and Finance Brokers Association of Australia membership, and earlier audit work at BDO. The role chronology and degree/credential details are issuer-reported and have not been independently verified.

**Attribution:** Employer context; no individual link established. Gorilla’s biography links him to prior employer positions and a capital-raising outcome but does not state sole responsibility.

**Relevance:** Relevant finance, compliance and capital-markets experience for a resource explorer.

## Evidence gaps

- Issuer biographies supply abbreviated role histories, not full dated chronologies; prior-employer roles and individual accountability for employer outcomes are incompletely documented.

- Education and professional credentials are issuer-reported and were not independently checked where no primary credential record was found.

- Open-web adverse searches were focused and identity-aware but did not comprehensively review regulator, court, safety or environment records at every prior employer; no clearance conclusion is implied.
