The December 2024 Mineral Resource Update is detailed in a Technical Report Summary, which has been filed on EDGAR.\nThe Kabanga Nickel Project is 69.713% owned by Lifezone Metals, and all Mineral Resources are shown on an attributable to Lifezone Metals basis and do not represent the total resource tonnage.\nHighlights:\n\nAttributable Measured and Indicated Resources total 46.8 million tonnes grading 2.09% nickel, 0.29% copper and 0.16% cobalt (2.62% nickel-equivalent – 1.2 million tonnes contained nickel-equivalent).\nPlus, attributable Inferred Resources totaling 11.3 million tonnes grading 2.08% nickel, 0.28% copper and 0.15% cobalt (2.59% nickel-equivalent – 0.3 million tonnes contained nickel-equivalent).\n3.3 million tonnes attributable to Lifezone with an average grade of 3.00% nickel (3.26% nickel-equivalent) for 98,000 tonnes attributable contained nickel have been added to the Measured and Indicated categories compared to the previous November 2023 Mineral Resource Update.\n81% of Kabanga’s Mineral Resource tonnes are now classified as the higher confidence Measured and Indicated categories relative to Inferred. Only Measured and Indicated Resources can support the conversion to Proven and Probable Reserves.\nThe nickel-equivalent formula and cut-off grade calculation has been revised to reflect updated assumptions and technical parameters, increasing to 0.73% nickel-equivalent (NiEq24) for the massive sulfide domain and 0.77% NiEq24 for ultramafic, compared to 0.58% nickel-equivalent (NiEq23) previously.\nKabanga’s largest mineralized zone, the North Zone, has had a 21% increase in contained nickel in Measured and Indicated. The North Zone represents more than 50% of Kabanga’s total resources, with 24.7 million tonnes of attributable Measured and Indicated Resources grading 3.19% nickel-equivalent.\nMultiple opportunities identified to grow the current Kabanga resources, including at the Safari Link zone. High-priority regional targets include multiple identified geophysical anomalies, such as Rubona Hill.\n\nMr. Showalter commented: \"Kabanga stands as one of the world’s largest and highest-grade undeveloped nickel sulfide deposits, and today’s update underscores its exceptional potential. With the addition of over 15,000 meters of new drilling data, we can refine the Definitive Feasibility Study mine plan to unlock maximum value from Kabanga’s rich mineralization. Upgrading high-grade nickel, copper and cobalt Mineral Resources into the Measured and Indicated categories is a pivotal step towards converting these into Proven and Probable Reserves.\nWith these upgrades to Kabanga’s Mineral Resources, we have identified opportunities for further enhancing the Definitive Feasibility Study. We will provide an update on the Definitive Feasibility Study timeline once we have completed these technical evaluations.\nFacilitated by the Memorandum of Understanding with Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (JOGMEC), we are evaluating the potential for a strategic investment by a Japanese partner, alongside the sale of offtake through Lifezone’s marketing rights. These negotiations are progressing well and in close coordination with our project partners. We welcome the opportunity to bring on a strategically aligned Japanese partner to further advance the Kabanga Nickel Project. In parallel, we are working with our project partners to conclude the Joint Financial Model, which remains a crucial condition for BHP’s T2 investment.\"\nTable 1: Kabanga Nickel Project Mineral Resource Update shown on an attributable to Lifezone Metals basis (69.7%), as at December 4, 2024.

There are no Mineral Reserves to report.\nMineral Resources are reported showing only the LZM attributable tonnage portion, which is 69.713% of the total.\nCut-off applies to NiEq24, which is derived using a nickel price of $9.50/lb, copper price of $4.50/lb, and cobalt price of $23.00/lb with allowances for recoveries, payability, deductions, transport, and royalties.\nNiEq24 formulae are: MSSX NiEq24 = Ni + (Cu x 0.454) + (Co x 2.497) and UMAF NiEq24 = Ni + (Cu x 0.547) + (Co x 2.480).\nThe point of reference for Mineral Resources is the point of feed into a concentrator.\nAll Mineral Resources in the 2024MRU were assessed for reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction by reporting only material above cut off grades of: MSSX NiEq24>0.73% and UMAF NiEq24>0.77%.\nTotals may vary due to rounding.\n\nThe Kabanga December 2024 Mineral Resource Update was independently prepared by Sharron Sylvester, Technical Director – Geology at OreWin Pty Ltd and in accordance with Regulation S-K subpart 1300 promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (S-K 1300). Mineral Resources are reported exclusive of Mineral Reserves. There are no Mineral Reserves to report.\nThe December 2024 Mineral Resource Update reflects the results of a comprehensive review of the geology and mineralogy data, resulting in a tightening of the interpretations and higher confidence in the revised interpretations. It also includes assay results from 15,265 meters of drilling which were received after the September 2023 cut-off date applied to the previous November 2023 Mineral Resource Update.\nKabanga currently comprises six identified distinct mineralized zones, namely (from south-west to north-east) the Main, MNB, Kima, North, Tembo and Safari zones, which occur over a strike length exceeding 7.5 kilometers. The five mineralized zones that contribute to the Mineral Resource Update are: Main, MNB, Kima, North and Tembo, which extend over a total strike length of 6.0 kilometers and to a depth of up to 1.7 kilometers below surface.\nThe North Zone is the largest mineralized zone, representing more than 50% of Kabanga’s total Mineral Resources. On a standalone basis, it has 788,000 tonnes contained attributable nickel-equivalent in Measured and Indicated Resources. North Zone attributable Measured and Indicated Resources total 24.7 million tonnes grading 2.58% nickel, 0.34% copper and 0.18% cobalt (3.19% nickel-equivalent) plus attributable Inferred Mineral Resources totaling 5.8 million tonnes grading 2.62% nickel, 0.35% copper and 0.19% cobalt (3.25% nickel-equivalent).\nAt the North Zone, 81% of the Mineral Resources are classified as higher confidence Measured and Indicated (81% across all zones), which can support conversion to Proven and Probable Reserves. For comparison, 71% of Mineral Resources were classified as Measured and Indicated in the November 2023 Mineral Resource Update.\nTable 2: North Zone ONLY Mineral Resource Update shown on an attributable to Lifezone Metals basis (69.7%), as at December 4, 2024.\n\n\n\nMineral ResourceClassification\nAttributableTonnage(Mt)\nGrades\nRecovery\n\n\nNiEq24(%)\nNickel(%)\nCopper(%)\nCobalt(%)\nNickel(%)\nCopper(%)\nCobalt(%)\n\n\nNORTH ZONE ONLY – All Mineralization Types\n\n\nMeasured\n7.9\n2.66\n2.12\n0.28\n0.16\n83.3\n92.9\n86.1\n\n\nIndicated\n16.8\n3.44\n2.80\n0.37\n0.19\n85.1\n94.8\n88.0\n\n\nMeasured + Indicated\n24.7\n3.19\n2.58\n0.34\n0.18\n84.6\n94.3\n87.5\n\n\nInferred\n5.8\n3.25\n2.62\n0.35\n0.19\n85.8\n95.2\n88.7\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMineral ResourceClassification\nAttributableTonnage(Mt)\nGrades\nAttributable ContainedMetals\n\n\nNiEq24(%)\nNickel(%)\nCopper(%)\nCobalt(%)\nNiEq24(kt)\nNickel(kt)\nCopper(kt)\nCobalt(kt)\n\n\nNORTH ZONE ONLY – All Mineralization Types\n\n\nMeasured\n7.9\n2.66\n2.12\n0.28\n0.16\n211\n168\n22\n13\n\n\nIndicated\n16.8\n3.44\n2.80\n0.37\n0.19\n579\n470\n63\n32\n\n\nMeasured + Indicated\n24.7\n3.19\n2.58\n0.34\n0.18\n790\n638\n85\n45\n\n\nInferred\n5.8\n3.25\n2.62\n0.35\n0.19\n183\n152\n20\n11\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\nNote: refer to the metals’ prices, recoveries and other assumptions as shown in Table 1 and the provided notes.\n\n\n\nThe Mineral Resource cut-off grade calculation has been revised to reflect updated assumptions and technical parameters, increasing to 0.73% NiEq24 for the massive sulfide domain and 0.77% NiEq24 for the ultramafic domain. This compares to 0.58% NiEq23 cut-off grade applied to the previous November 2023 Mineral Resource Update. The metal price assumptions used for 2024 cut-off grade determination are: $9.50/lb nickel, $4.50/lb copper and $23.00/lb cobalt.\nSafari Link Area and High-Priority Regional Geophysical Anomalies Provide Opportunities for Additional Upside\nThe Safari Link area spans a 1.4 kilometers strike length north-east of the Tembo Zone, incorporating the Safari Zone (refer to Figure 1 above and Lifezone’s January 28, 2024 news release).The Safari Link area is considered to be a possible strike-extension (continuation) of the Tembo mineralization, as indicated by a Tembo-style high conductance electromagnetic (EM) geophysical anomaly that exists to the north-east of the Tembo Zone. Lifezone completed 13 drill holes in 2022–23, and there is currently approximately 850 meters of strike length that remains untested.\nPrevious programs of geophysical surveying have identified multiple anomalies on the Kabanga Special Mining Licence area, which include the Rubona Hill anomaly – a high-priority for future regional exploration.\nQualified Persons\nThe Kabanga December 2024 Mineral Resource Update Technical Report Summary (2024MRU) with an effective date of December 4, 2024, has been prepared in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (US SEC) Regulation S-K subpart 1300 rules for Property Disclosures for Mining Registrants (S-K 1300) for Lifezone Metals Ltd. on the Kabanga Nickel Project. The 2024MRU is a preliminary technical and economic study of the economic potential of the Project mineralization to support the disclosure of Mineral Resources. The Mineral Resource estimates are current as at December 4, 2024.\nThe 2024MRU scientific and technical information in this news release has been prepared and approved by Sharron Sylvester, BSc (Geol), RPGeo AIG (10125), Technical Director – Geology at OreWin Pty Ltd and Bernard Peters, BEng (Mining), FAusIMM (201743), Technical Director – Mining at OreWin Pty Ltd. Both individuals are Qualified Persons in accordance with S-K 1300 and are considered independent of Lifezone Metals.\nAppendix : Kabanga Nickel Project Mineral Resource Update by zone on an attributable to Lifezone Metals basis (69.7%), as at December 4, 2024.\n\n\n\nMineral ResourceClassification\nAttributableTonnage(Mt)\nGrades\nRecovery\n\n\nNiEq24\nNickel\nCopper\nCobalt\nNickel\nCopper\nCobalt\n\n\n(%)\n(%)\n(%)\n(%)\n(%)\n(%)\n(%)\n\n\nMAIN ZONE -

Through the application of our Hydromet Technology, we offer the potential for lower energy consumption, lower emissions and lower cost metals production compared to traditional smelting.\nOur Kabanga Nickel Project in Tanzania is believed to be one of the world's largest and highest-grade undeveloped nickel sulfide deposits. By pairing it with our Hydromet Technology, we are working to unlock a new source of LME-grade nickel, copper and cobalt for the global battery metals markets, to empower Tanzania to achieve full in-country value creation and become the next premier source of Class 1 nickel.\nThrough our US-based recycling partnership, we are working to demonstrate that our Hydromet Technology can process and recover platinum, palladium and rhodium from responsibly sourced spent automotive catalytic converters. Our process is expected to be cleaner and more efficient than conventional smelting and refining methods, enabling the circular economy for precious metals.\nhttps://lifezonemetals.com\nForward-Looking Statements\nCertain statements made herein are not historical facts but may be considered \"forward-looking statements\" within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the \"safe harbor\" provisions under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding, amongst other things, the plans, strategies, intentions and prospects, both business and financial, of Lifezone Metals Limited and its subsidiaries.\nGenerally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, and any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements.
