Financial position
A$229.2m of cash (A$125m placement received 25 September 2026) and no debt cover about eight years of current exploration and corporate burn but only about 42% of Wia's 80% share of the A$676m (US$475m) DFS capital; the balance depends on the non-binding US$360m Sprott facility (financial close targeted Q4 2026, conditional on the Mining Licence and ECC) and on Epangelo funding its 20%.

Contracts and ownership
Material economic arrangements These are deals that can affect sales, costs, funding or ownership. An arrangement marked “Included in valuation” may already be built into a project estimate or the bridge to shareholder value. A separate amount is shown only when one can be estimated; do not add it again.
Joint venture, statutory fiscal terms, financing, farm-in and Santa Fe consideration read from the DFS, annual report and quarterly. No offtake, stream, royalty to a private party, or hedge is disclosed; gold sales terms in the DFS are spot at 100% payment on shipment. The Sprott warrant strike and several farm-in terms are not disclosed.
Kokoseb is held 80:20 with the state-owned Epangelo. Future project funding is contributed pro rata and a partner that does not fund is diluted; the DFS NPV is on a 100% basis, so Wia is credited with 80% and funds 80% of capital.

Management background checks
As of the cutoff, WIA's five-person executive roster combines mine-development leadership, finance, project delivery, exploration and legal/governance experience. Henk Diederichs has the clearest directly credited study-delivery record at PDI; John Mussett's prior project record is supported by Aris and AngloGold Ashanti filings; Pierrick Couderc is issuer-credited with leading the Centamin exploration team behind Doropo and ABC. WIA's Kokoseb DFS and reserve milestones occurred during the current team period, but the project remained pre-production and individual responsibility is not isolated. David Edwards' Ancuabe finance work reached feasibility and financing discussions, without evidence of construction or production during his Triton tenure. An external-mine safety event during John's Aris tenure is employer-level context only. Exact-name records for John Mussett and David Edwards are not attributed because identity remains unresolved.

Henk Diederichs
Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer
Personal SuccessIssuer Reported · Medium materiality
Led PDI Bankan DFS delivery
PDI's FY2025 report credits Henk, as COO, with leading Bankan DFS delivery alongside its broader project and technical teams. The DFS is a study and its production and returns are forecasts; no mine was operating by the cutoff.
Individual involvement documented · PDI directly credits his leadership but describes team delivery; no sole contribution or operating outcome is established.

Company SuccessIssuer Reported · Medium materiality
Nyanzaga advanced during OreCorp executive tenure
OreCorp filings document Henk's VP Project Development, COO and CEO/MD roles, and advancement of Nyanzaga through scoping and prefeasibility. WIA says his CEO tenure ended with OreCorp's acquisition by Perseus in April 2024. The sources do not isolate his contribution to sale terms, valuation or shareholder return; the project had not reached production in the reviewed evidence.
Role overlaps event; causation unproven · His roles overlapped project advancement and the company acquisition, but sole responsibility is not shown.

Kokoseb DFS and reserve milestone during WIA tenure
WIA's 2026 annual report records completion of the Kokoseb DFS in August 2026 and a 1.95 Moz reserve, alongside funding steps toward construction. The milestone occurred during Henk's CEO tenure, but his individual contribution is not isolated. Construction and production remained future plans.
Role overlaps event; causation unproven · His CEO tenure overlapped the milestone; no individual causal contribution or operating result is established.

Evidence gaps · 3
- Exact Allied Gold dates and some Equinox titles are unresolved; no independent employment or credential-register check was completed.
- Bankan and Kokoseb DFS findings are study-stage outcomes; they do not evidence construction, commissioning or production by Henk.
- Public-source searches are not exhaustive criminal, sanctions, litigation, safety or environmental checks.
David Edwards
Chief Financial Officer
Company SuccessIssuer Reported · Medium materiality
Led Ancuabe finance and commercial workstreams through feasibility
WIA says Edwards led Triton's finance and commercial workstreams at Ancuabe from scoping through feasibility, construction-contract negotiations and financing discussions. Triton's 2021 report confirms his CFO/CS and interim CEO dates. No closed project financing, construction or production outcome during his tenure is established.
Individual involvement documented · WIA directly attributes the workstreams; it does not establish a financing close or operating result.
Appointment of Chief Financial Officer · Ancuabe experience
Annual Report for year ended 31 December 2021 · KMP dates
Evidence gaps · 3
- Queensland public-service David Edwards story cannot be matched to WIA's finance executive; no allegation is attributed.
- Exact dates for some roles and education details are incomplete; no professional register check was done.
- No exhaustive court, regulator, criminal, sanctions, safety or environment search was completed; Ancuabe did not reach production during documented tenure.
John Mussett
Project Director
Personal SuccessIssuer Reported · Medium materiality
Project delivery linked to Obuasi redevelopment and Tropicana
Aris Mining says Mussett was integral in successful delivery of major capital projects including Obuasi and Tropicana. AngloGold Ashanti independently reports Obuasi Phase 1 completion, progress on schedule and within budget, and first gold on 18 December 2019. This does not establish his sole contribution.
Individual involvement documented · Aris attributes integral project involvement; AGA verifies the project milestone but not his individual causal contribution.

SafetyDocumented · Medium materiality
External partner mine collapse during Aris tenure; all workers rescued
A collapse at La Reliquia on 22 September 2025 trapped 23 people, including five Aris employees performing monthly reviews. Aris said the third-party mine was within its Segovia title but outside its infrastructure; it and the local workforce supported rescue. AP reported all 23 were rescued after about 43 hours. No personal responsibility by Mussett is established.
Employer context; no individual link established · The incident occurred during his Aris tenure, but it was an external partner operation and no report links Mussett to the cause or safety responsibility.

Evidence gaps · 3
- Exact WIA start date and detailed roles before AngloGold are not disclosed; education is self-reported with no degree specified.
- Two UK court-listing entries with an exact-name match cannot be linked to this executive; no allegation is attributed.
- No exhaustive criminal, sanctions, legal, environment or credential search; La Reliquia was third-party operated.
Pierrick Couderc
Group Exploration Manager
Personal SuccessIssuer Reported · Medium materiality
Led exploration team credited with Doropo and ABC discoveries
Tanga's 2021 release says Couderc established and led Centamin's Côte d'Ivoire team behind the initial 2.45 Moz Doropo and 0.65 Moz ABC discoveries. WIA now reports larger updated resources; that subsequent growth is not credited to him here. Team leadership is issuer-reported, not sole geological causation.
Individual involvement documented · Issuer attributes team setup and leadership; no sole discovery responsibility or later resource growth is established.

- No credential-register, criminal, sanctions, litigation or exhaustive safety/environment search.
Jessica O'Hara
Company Secretary and Group Legal Counsel
Role FitAnalyst Inference · Medium materiality
Corporate-law and listed-mining governance background
The roster lists Jessica O'Hara as Company Secretary and Group Legal Counsel. OreCorp records prior senior legal roles at Clayton Utz and Allen & Overy, in-house legal experience and Company Secretary service; WIA describes 20+ years in legal/secretarial roles. Exact earlier dates are not established.

Coverage and limitations
- The annual report warns that subsequent share issues may make some substantial-holder quantities and percentages stale.
- Top-20 rows are registered accounts and may include nominee/custodian accounts; they do not establish the beneficial owners behind those accounts.
- Helikon’s 28 September disclosure uses a larger issued-share denominator (1,996,692,123) than the annual-report register measured on 8 September (1,702,050,904), reflecting subsequent issues.
