MANAGEMENT INFORMATION CIRCULAR

This Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of the management of CONQUEST RESOURCES LIMITED (the "Company" or "Conquest") for use at the Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Company (the "Meeting") to be held on Thursday, June 13, 2024 at the registered office of the Company, 55 University Avenue, Suite 1805, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2H7 for the purposes set out in the accompanying notice of meeting. In addition to the use of the mails, proxies may be solicited by Officers ("Officers"), Directors ("Directors") and regular employees of the Company by telephone. The cost of such solicitation will be borne by the Company.

NOTICE AND ACCESS

The Company has elected to use the notice‐and‐access process ("Notice‐and‐Access") under National Instrument 54‐101-Communications with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer ("NI 54‐ 101") and National Instrument 51‐102-Continuous Disclosure Obligations, for distribution of this Circular and other meeting materials to Registered Shareholders of the Company and Non‐Registered Holders (as defined herein).

Notice‐and‐Access allows issuers to post electronic versions of meeting materials, including circulars, annual financial statements and management discussion and analysis, online, via SEDAR and one other website, rather than mailing paper copies of such meeting materials to Shareholders. The Company anticipates that utilizing the Notice‐and‐Access process will substantially reduce both postage and printing costs.

Meeting materials including the Circular and the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the Company's management discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2023, are available on the Company website at www.ConquestResources.comand under the Company's profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

The Company does not intend to pay intermediaries to forward the Notice‐and‐Access Notification to OBOs (as defined herein) under NI 54‐101, and therefore an OBO will not receive the Notice‐and‐Access Notification unless the OBO's intermediary assumes the cost of delivery.

Shareholders will not receive a paper copy of the Meeting Materials unless they request paper copies from the Company. Requests for paper copies of the Meeting Materials must be received at least five (5) business days in advance of the proxy deposit date and time, being 9:00 a.m. on June 11, 2024.

APPOINTMENT AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES

A Registered Shareholder may vote at the Meeting or may appoint another person to represent, virtually, such Registered Shareholder as proxy and to vote the Common Shares of such Registered Shareholder at the Meeting. To appoint another person as proxy, a Registered Shareholder must complete, execute and deliver the form of proxy, or another proper form of proxy, in the manner specified in the Notice.

The purpose of a form of proxy is to designate persons who will vote on the shareholder's behalf in accordance with the instructions given by the shareholder in the form of proxy. The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy are Officers or Directors of the Company. A REGISTERED SHAREHOLDER DESIRING

Voting by Non-Registered/Beneficial Shareholders

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many Shareholders as a substantial number of Shareholders do not hold their Common Shares in their own name and are considered non- registered beneficial Shareholders. Only Registered Shareholders or the persons they appoint as their proxies are permitted to vote at the Meeting. Most Shareholders are "non-registered" Shareholders ("Non-RegisteredShareholders") because the Common Shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the name of the brokerage firm, bank or trust company through which they purchased the Common Shares. Common Shares beneficially owned by a Non-Registered Shareholder are registered either:

  1. in the name of an intermediary ("Intermediary") (including, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers, brokers and trustees or administrators or self-administered RRSPs, RRIFs, RESPs, TFSAs and similar plans) that the Non-Registered Shareholder deals with in respect of the Common Shares; or
  2. in the name of a clearing agency (such as CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. ("CDS")) of which the Intermediary is a participant. Non-Registered Holders should note that only proxies deposited by Shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of Common Shares can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. In accordance with applicable securities law requirements, the Company will have distributed copies of the Meeting Materials to the clearing agencies and Non-Registered Shareholders, or Intermediaries for onward distribution to Non-Registered Shareholders, as applicable. If you are a Non-Registered Holder, your Intermediary will be the entity legally entitled to vote your Common Shares at the Meeting. Common Shares held by an Intermediary can only be voted upon the instructions of the Non-Registered Holder. Without specific instructions, Intermediaries are prohibited from voting Common Shares.

Intermediaries are required to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Shareholders unless a Non-Registered Shareholder has waived the right to receive them. Intermediaries often use service companies to forward the Meeting Materials to Non-Registered Shareholders. Generally, Non-Registered Shareholders who have not waived the right to receive Meeting Materials will either:

  1. be given a voting instruction form which is not signed by the Intermediary and which, when properly completed and signed by the Non-Registered Shareholder and returned to the Intermediary or its service company, will constitute voting instructions (often called a "voting instruction form") which the Intermediary must follow. Typically, the voting instruction form will consist of a one-pagepre-printed form. The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge") in Canada. Broadridge typically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form, mails those forms to Non-Registered Shareholders and asks Non-Registered Shareholders to return the forms to Broadridge or otherwise communicate voting instructions to Broadridge (by way of the Internet or telephone, for example). Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of the shares to be represented at the Meeting. Sometimes, instead of the one-pagepre-printed form, the voting instruction form will consist of a regular printed proxy form

55 University Ave., Suite 1805, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2H7 www.ConquestResources.com

accompanied by a page of instructions which contains a removable label with a bar-code and other information. In order for this form of proxy to validly constitute a voting instruction form, the Non-Registered Shareholder must remove the label from the instructions and affix it to the form of proxy, properly complete and sign the form of proxy and submit it to the Intermediary or its service company in accordance with the instructions of the Intermediary or its service company. A Non-Registered Shareholder who receives a voting instruction form cannot use that form to vote his or her Common Shares at the Meeting; or

  1. be given a form of proxy which has already been signed by the Intermediary (typically by a facsimile, stamped signature), which is restricted as to the number of shares beneficially owned by the Non-Registered Shareholder, but which is otherwise not completed by the Intermediary. Because the Intermediary has already signed the form of proxy, this form of proxy is not required to be signed by the Non-Registered Shareholder when submitting the proxy. In this case, the Non-Registered Shareholder who wishes to submit a proxy should properly complete the form of proxy and deposit it with TSX Trust Company.

In either case, the purpose of these procedures is to permit Non-Registered Shareholders to direct the voting of the Common Shares they beneficially own. Should a Non-Registered Shareholder who receives one of the above forms wish to vote at the Meeting, or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof, or to have another person vote on behalf of the Non-Registered Shareholder, the Non-Registered Shareholder should strike out the person's named in the voting instruction form and insert the Non- Registered Shareholder or such other person's name in the blank space provided. In either case, Non- Registered Shareholders should carefully follow the instructions of their Intermediary, including those regarding when and where the voting instruction form is to be delivered.

Objecting Beneficial Owner ("OBOs")

With respect to OBOs, in accordance with applicable securities law requirements, the Company has provided copies of the Meeting materials to the clearing agencies and Intermediaries for distribution to OBOs. The Company does not intend to pay for Intermediaries to deliver the Meeting materials.

Revocation of Proxies

A Registered Shareholder who has given a form of proxy may revoke the form of proxy at any time prior to using it by: (a) depositing an instrument in writing, including another completed form of proxy, executed by such Registered Shareholder or by his or her attorney authorized in writing or by electronic signature or, if the Registered Shareholder is a corporation, by an authorized officer or attorney thereof at, or by transmitting by telephone or electronic means, a revocation signed, subject to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), with (i) with TSX Trust Company at any time prior to 9:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof or (ii) the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or any adjournment thereof; or (b) in any other manner permitted by law.

Only Registered Shareholders have the right to revoke a Proxy. Non-registered holders who wish to change their vote must, at least seven days before the Meeting, arrange for their respective Intermediaries to revoke the Proxy on their behalf.

Notice to Shareholders in the United States

The solicitation of proxies involves securities of an issuer located in Canada and is being conducted in accordance with the corporate laws of Canada and securities laws of the provinces in Canada. The proxy solicitation rules under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are not applicable to the Company or this solicitation, and this solicitation has been prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of the securities laws of the provinces of Canada. Shareholders should be aware that disclosure requirements under the securities laws of the provinces of Canada differ from the disclosure requirements under United States securities laws.

The enforcement by Shareholders of civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely by the fact that the Company is incorporated under the Business Corporation Act (Ontario), as amended, certain of its Directors and its Executive Officers are residents of Canada and countries other than the United States, and all the assets of the Company and a substantial portion of the assets of such persons are located outside the United States. Shareholders may not be able to sue a foreign company or its officers or directors in a foreign court for violations of United States federal securities laws. It may be difficult to compel a foreign company and its officers and directors to subject themselves to a judgment by a United States court.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS OR COMPANIES IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

Except as described elsewhere in this Circular, management of the Company is not aware of any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, of (a) any director or Executive Officer of the Company who has held such position at any time since the beginning of the Company's last financial year, (b) any proposed nominee for election as a director of the Company, and

  1. any associates or affiliates of any of the persons or companies listed in (a) and (b), in any matter to be acted on at the Meeting.

VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

Each holder of common shares in the capital of the Company ("Common Shares") of record at the close of business on April 29, 2024 will be entitled to vote at the Meeting or at any adjournment thereof, either in person or by proxy, except to the extent that such holder has transferred any Common Shares after the record date and the transferee of such Common Shares establishes proper ownership thereof and demands, not later than ten days before the Meeting, to be included in the list of shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting, in which case such transferee is entitled to vote.

As at the date of this Circular, the Company had 135,477,106 issued and outstanding Common Shares. Each Common Share carries the right to one vote per share. The outstanding Common Shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V") under the symbol "CQR".

To the knowledge of the Company's Directors and Executive Officers, as of the date hereof, no person or company beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, or exercises control or direction over, Common Shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to the outstanding Common Shares.

As at the date hereof, the Directors and Executive Officers of the Company, as a group, beneficially own, directly or indirectly approximately 10.13 percent of the outstanding Common Shares.

PROXIES RECEIVED IN FAVOUR OF MANAGEMENT WILL BE VOTED FOR THE ELECTION OF THE NAMED NOMINEES, UNLESS THE SHAREHOLDER HAS SPECIFIED IN THE PROXY THAT HIS, HER OR ITS COMMON SHARES ARE TO BE WITHHELD FROM VOTING IN RESPECT THEREOF.

Management does not contemplate that any of the Nominees will be unable to serve as a Director, but if that should occur for any reason prior to the Meeting, it is intended that discretionary authority shall be exercised by the persons named in the accompanying Proxy to vote the Proxy for the election of any other person or persons in place of any Nominee or Nominees unable to serve.

Cease Trade Orders, Bankruptcies, Penalties or Sanctions

No director, officer, promoter or other member of management of Conquest is, or within the ten years prior to the date hereof has been, a director, officer, promoter or other member of management of any other issuer that, while that person was acting in the capacity of a director, officer, promoter or other member of management of that issuer, was the subject of a cease trade order or similar order or an order that denied the issuer access to any statutory exemptions for a period of more than thirty consecutive days or was declared bankrupt or made a voluntary assignment in bankruptcy, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or has been subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets except as follows:

John F. Kearney is a director and officer of Labrador Iron Mines Holdings Limited, which on April 2, 2015 instituted proceedings in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice for a financial restructuring by means of a plan of arrangement under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act, which plan was approved on December 6, 2016 and sanctioned by the court on December 14, 2016.

Personal Bankruptcies

No proposed Director has within the ten years prior to the date hereof become bankrupt or made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or been subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold the assets of the proposed Director.

INDEBTEDNESS TO COMPANY OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

No person who is or was at any time during the most recently completed financial year of the Company an officer or director of the Company, no proposed nominee for election as a director, or any associate of any such person, was indebted to the Company.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The by-laws of the Company states that every director and officer of the Company in exercising his or her powers and discharging his or her duties shall act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. Subject to the foregoing, no director or officer shall be liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other director or officer or employee, or for

55 University Ave., Suite 1805, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2H7 www.ConquestResources.com

joining in any receipt or other act for conformity, or for any loss, damage or expense happening to the Company through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired for or on behalf of the Company, or for the insufficiency or deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the moneys of the Company shall be invested, or for any loss or damage arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious acts of any person with whom any of the moneys, securities or effects of the Company shall be deposited, or for any loss occasioned by any error of judgment or oversight on his or her part, or for any other loss, damage or misfortune whatever which shall happen in the execution of the duties of his or her office or in relation thereto; provided that nothing herein shall relieve any director or officer from the duty to act in accordance with the Act and the regulations thereunder or from liability for any breach thereof.

Subject to the Act, the Company shall indemnify a director or officer, a former director or officer, or a person who acts or acted at the Company's request as a director or officer of a body corporate of which the Company is or was a shareholder or creditor (or a person who undertakes or has undertaken any liability on behalf of the Company or any such body corporate) and such person's heirs and legal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by such person in respect of any civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which such person is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Company or such body corporate, if (a) such person acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company; and (b) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, such person had reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful. The Company shall also indemnify such person in such other circumstances as the Act permits or requires. Nothing in this by-law shall limit the right of any person entitled to indemnity to claim indemnity apart from the provisions of this by-law.

RE-APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR

The Directors propose to nominate Simone & Company, Professional Chartered Accountants, as the Auditor of the Company to hold office until the close of the next annual meeting of shareholders.

In the past, the Directors have negotiated with the Auditor of the Company on an arm's length basis in determining the fees to be paid to the Auditor. Such fees have been based on the complexity of the matters in question and the time incurred by the Auditor. The Directors believe that the fees negotiated in the past with the Auditor of the Company were comparable to fees charged by other Auditors providing similar services.

The management representatives named in the form of proxy intend to vote FOR the appointment of Simone & Company as auditor of the Company and in favour of authorizing the Directors to fix the remuneration of the auditor, unless a shareholder specifies in the proxy that his or her Common Shares are to be withheld from voting in respect of the appointment of auditor and the fixing of their remuneration.
