UPDATE ON LISTING APPLICATION IN CANADA

This announcement is made by SouthGobi Resources Ltd. (the "Company") pursuant to Rule 13.09 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, paragraph 3.42 of the Guidance Letter HKEX-GL-112-22 and the Inside Information Provisions under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).

Reference is made to the Company's announcements dated April 21, 2022, July 29, 2022 and September 15, 2022 (Hong Kong time) ("Announcements"). Unless otherwise specified, capitalized terms used in the Announcements shall have the same meanings when used herein.

UPDATE ON EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE DELISTING

Pursuant to the Company's announcement dated April 21, 2022, the Company announced that it would be making an application (the "TSX-VListing Application") to the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V") to list the Company's common shares on the TSX-V, as well as an application to the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") for a voluntary delisting of its common shares from the TSX, subject to the Company receiving approval from the TSX-V of the TSX-V Listing Application. The Company has been notified by the TSX-V that the TSX-V is currently unable to approve the Company's TSX-V Listing Application because the Company does not satisfy the TSX-V's working capital listing requirements.

In light of foregoing, the Company will make an application (the "NEX Listing Application") to the NEX division of the TSX-V ("NEX") to list its common shares on the NEX. The board of directors of the Company has determined that it is in the best interest of the Company to seek a listing of the

Company's common shares on the NEX because it offers a cost-effective solution for the Company to maintain a listing of its common shares on an alternative trading market in Canada.

The Company's NEX Listing Application, once made, will be subject to review and approval from the NEX. The Company is targeting to obtain approval of the NEX Listing Application and complete the listing of its common shares on the NEX by the end of December 2022. As such, the Company wishes to update its Shareholders and investors that because the Delisting shall be subject to obtaining approvals from the TSX and NEX in connection with NEX Listing Application, the anticipated Effective Date is thus postponed to the end of December 2022.

The Company will provide further updates once further information is available. The Company anticipates that its common shares will remain listed on the TSX while the NEX Listing Application is under review by the NEX.

There may exist certain uncertainties as to whether and when the Delisting will proceed. Shareholders who have any queries about the implications of the Delisting are advised to obtain appropriate professional advice. Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the securities of the Company.

The Company will closely monitor the development of the aforesaid matters and keep the Shareholders and potential investors informed of any material development in connection with the above matters by way of periodic announcements and/or further announcement(s) as and when appropriate.

If there is any inconsistency or discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version, the English version shall prevail.
