Aura Energy Limited (ASX:AEE, AIM:AURA) ("Aura", the "Company") advises that an Appendix 3H (Notification of cessation of securities) has been filed with the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") and is available on the Company's website: https://auraenergy.com.au/investor-centre/asx-announcements/
The Company has cancelled 2,000,000 ordinary shares held by Neil Clifford, a former director of Archaean Greenstone Gold, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, which were part of the 20,000,000 Loan Funded Shares that were admitted to trading on AIM on 7 July 2022 ("Cancelled Shares"), due to lapse of conditional right to securities because the conditions have not been, or have become incapable of being satisfied.
Application will be made for the 2,000,000 Cancelled Shares to be cancelled from trading on AIM ("Cancellation"). It is expected that Cancellation will become effective on or around 12 March 2024.
Total Voting Rights
Following the cancellation of 2,000,000 Cancelled Shares, the total issued share capital of the Company will consist of 625,370,646 ordinary shares of no par value each ("Ordinary Shares"). The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in Treasury. Therefore, the total current voting rights in the Company following cancellation will be 625,370,646 and this figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

| About Aura Energy (ASX:AEE, AIM:AURA) |
| |||||||
Aura Energy is an Australian-based minerals company that has major uranium and polymetallic projects with large resources in Africa and Europe. The Company is now focused on uranium production from the Tiris Project, a major greenfield uranium discovery in Mauritania.
A recent Enhanced Feasibility Study has increased the project NPV significantly which reconfirms Tiris as one of the lowest capex, lowest operating cost uranium projects that remain undeveloped in the world.
In October 2021, the Company entered a US$10m Offtake Financing Agreement with Curzon, which includes an additional up to US$10m facility, bringing the maximum available under the agreement to US$20m.
In 2023, Aura will continue to transition from a uranium explorer to a uranium producer, to capitalise on the rapidly growing demand for nuclear power as the world continues to shift towards a decarbonised energy sector.
