BOARD CHANGES AND DRILLING UPDATE
Board Changes
Emu NL (ASX:EMU or the Company) announces that Mr Corey Nolan has today resigned
as a non-executive director of the Company, and that the Company has appointed James
Knowles as a new non-executive director.
Mr Nolan was appointed following the Company’s AGM last Friday, 28 November 2025,
in order to ensure that the Company continued to have at least three directors, as is
required by law for a public company.
In the lead up to the Company’s AGM, the Board considered that with four Board-
endorsed candidates, and two non-Board endorsed candidates, that it was unlikely that
the Company would be at risk of falling below the minimum statutory threshold following
the AGM.
However, with Mr Adrian Griffin not being re-elected and Mr Ian Davies not standing for
re-election at the AGM, it was necessary for the Board to act immediately following the
AGM to appoint Mr Nolan as a director to ensure continued compliance by the Company
with this minimum requirement.
The Company wishes to express its sincere thanks to Mr Nolan for being available and
willing to serve as a director on short notice and while the Company put in place longer-
term alternative arrangements.
The Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr James Knowles. Mr Knowles
is a geologist with more than 28 years of industry experience and a strong track record in
integrating geology and technical knowledge into the development of mining projects. His
career includes exploration, project development, operational and technical leadership
roles across a range of commodities, styles of mineralisation and mining methods.
Mr Knowles is a Founder and Technical Director of Measured Group, a respected
consulting firm that provides technical and advisory services to exploration,
development and mining companies. In this role, he leads multidisciplinary teams that
deliver geology, mining, studies, transaction advisory, due diligence and operational

optimisation projects.

Recent rainfall has hampered progress due to wet tracks, which need to be dried out
before vehicles can access. EMU’s Senior geologist and contracted geologists are
currently on-site to assist with drill rig access, sampling, and to monitor drilling progress.
