Dateline Resources Limited (ASX: DTR, OTCQB: DTREF, FSE: YE1) is pleased to announce that Managing Director, Stephen Baghdadi, has exercised a further 13,863,072 options, increasing his investment to almost A$1.35 million in cash into the Company since June 2025. This significant investment increases Mr Baghdadi's total shareholding to 410,753,379 Ordinary shares, or ~12% of the total outstanding shares. The continued investment is a strong endorsement of Dateline's direction and reflects management's conviction that the Company is positioned for a major growth phase driven by its flagship Colosseum Gold and REE Project in California. Recent drilling and geophysical modelling at Colosseum have strengthened Dateline's confidence in both the scale of the gold system and the extent of rare earth mineralisation. These results, combined with strong U.S. government interest in domestic critical mineral supply, underpin the Managing Director's confidence in the path ahead. Dateline remains well-funded with over $32,000,000 cash at bank and focused on unlocking the full potential of the Colosseum Project through disciplined exploration, technical validation, and feasibility advancement.

Dateline confirms that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates and the forecast financial information referred to in previous announcements continue to apply and have not materially changed.

With strong U.S. policy support for critical minerals and a clear development pathway ahead, the Managing Director has complete confidence in Dateline's long-term future. Increasing his personal stake reinforces that commitment and strengthens the company's balance sheet as it moves into the next phase of the Colosseum Project.
