The Selling Securityholder may offer all or part of the securities for resale from time to time through public or private transactions, at either prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices.

Our Ordinary Shares and publicly traded warrants (“Public Warrants”) are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbols “LZM” and “LZMW,” respectively.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights certain information about us, this offering and selected information contained elsewhere in or incorporated into this prospectus. This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before deciding whether to invest in the securities covered by this prospectus. You should read the following summary together with the more detailed information in or incorporated into this prospectus before making an investment decision.
Certain capitalized terms used herein have the meanings set forth under “Certain Defined Terms,” beginning on page v of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 20-F, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Overview
Lifezone Metals is committed to delivering cleaner and more responsible metals production and recycling. Through the application of our Hydromet Technology, we offer the potential for lower energy consumption, lower emissions and lower cost metals production compared to traditional smelting.
The Kabanga Nickel Project in Tanzania is our flagship project and is considered to be one of the world’s largest and highest-grade development-ready nickel sulfide deposits. It is a well-advanced project with more than $455 million invested by Lifezone Metals and previous stakeholders as of June 30, 2026, in addition to key licenses being in place to commence development. The Kabanga Nickel Project envisages a staged development plan, commencing with the construction of a large-scale, long-life, underground mine and concentrator at the Kabanga site. The sulfide concentrate produced contains high-grade nickel content with meaningful copper and cobalt by-products. The economics displayed in the FS (as defined below) showcase a mining operation with robust economics that are expected to sit in the lowest quartile of the nickel industry cost curve, in addition to a clear execution plan backed by an experienced technical and management team.
We released the Initial Assessment in the first half of 2025, followed by the Feasibility Study (“FS”) on July 18, 2025 and marking a significant and historic milestone in the nearly five-decade journey of the Kabanga Nickel Project. The economic results in the FS highlight the project’s potential to deliver attractive returns over a long life, supported by high-grade Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources and a low-cost operating profile. Our partnership with the Government of Tanzania has been instrumental in advancing the project and Lifezone remains aligned in our commitment to responsible development and long-term value creation.
Through the application of our Hydromet Technology, we offer the potential for lower energy consumption, lower emissions and lower cost metals production compared to traditional smelting. In our U.S.-based recycling partnership, we are working to demonstrate that our Hydromet Technology can process and economically recover Platinum Group Metals (“PGM”) from responsibly sourced spent Automotive Catalytic Converters (“Autocats”). Our process is expected to be cleaner and more efficient than conventional smelting and refining methods, supporting a circular economy for precious metals. Our U.S.-based recycling operation would be the world’s first fully vertically integrated PGM recycling facility, providing a scalable, efficient and traceable closed-loop domestic critical minerals solution, delivering refined platinum, palladium and rhodium to the U.S. market. Notably, Lifezone would be a significant rhodium producer in the United States, allowing for the efficient recovery of the PGM basket from the secondary market. The processing and refining of all production inhouse provides Lifezone with the ability to offer metal traceability, with no refining occurring offshore, thereby keeping these critical PGMs entirely domestic to the United States.
On March 10, 2026, Lifezone Metals entered into an exclusivity agreement with the Government of Burundi regarding the Musongati Nickel Project, a large nickel laterite deposit located within the East African Nickel Belt. The agreement grants Lifezone a 14-month exclusivity period to evaluate the technical and economic potential of the Musongati deposit, including an initial scoping phase during which Lifezone will review existing geological data and develop a longer-term exploration and feasibility assessment program. The project lies approximately 200 km southwest of the Kabanga Nickel Project in Tanzania, and the agreement reflects Lifezone’s strategy to evaluate and potentially consolidate significant nickel resources within the Kabanga–Musongati alignment.

The Ordinary Shares We Are Registering
On August 8, 2025, Lifezone’s indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Kabanga Nickel Limited (“KNL”), entered into a $60 million secured bridge loan facility agreement (the “Bridge Facility”) with Taurus Mining Finance Fund No. 2, L.P. (“Taurus”), as amended. The bridge loan is intended to support advancement of the Kabanga Nickel Project by funding the development of critical early works and infrastructure development as the Company moves toward final investment decision for the Kabanga Nickel Project.
On March 7, 2026, Lifezone, KNL and Taurus executed a waiver letter with respect to the Bridge Facility (the “Waiver Letter”). On June 29, 2026, pursuant to the Waiver Letter, the Company issued Taurus warrants to purchase 500,000 Ordinary Shares, exercisable at an exercise price of $6.25 per share, subject to customary adjustments. The warrants will expire five years from the date of issuance.
In order to permit the public offer and resale from time to time of the Ordinary Shares that may be issued to Taurus upon exercise of the warrants, we agreed to provide certain registration rights to Taurus in the Waiver Letter and the Bridge Facility. In accordance with the terms of the Waiver Letter and the Bridge Facility, we are using this prospectus to register up to 500,000 Ordinary Shares to be sold by the Selling Securityholder from time to time after the date of this prospectus. The Selling Securityholder might sell any or all of the Ordinary Shares offered by this prospectus.
Emerging Growth Company
Lifezone Metals is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in their periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find Lifezone Metals’ securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for Lifezone Metals’ securities and the prices of Lifezone Metals’ securities may be more volatile.
Lifezone Metals will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the date on which Ordinary Shares were offered in connection with the business combination of Lifezone Limited, Lifezone Holdings Limited and GoGreen Investments Corporation on July 6, 2023, (b) in which it has total annual gross revenues of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which it is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of its ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates is equal to or exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which it has issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.
Foreign Private Issuer
Lifezone Metals is considered a “foreign private issuer” under the securities laws of the U.S. and the rules of the NYSE. Under the applicable securities laws of the U.S., “foreign private issuers” are subject to different disclosure requirements than U.S. domiciled issuers. As a foreign private issuer, Lifezone Metals is not subject to the SEC’s proxy rules. Under the NYSE’s rules, a “foreign private issuer” is subject to less stringent corporate governance and compliance requirements and subject to certain exceptions, the NYSE permits a “foreign private issuer” to follow its home country’s practice in lieu of the listing requirements of the NYSE. Accordingly, Lifezone Metals’ shareholders may not receive the same protection afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the NYSE’s corporate governance requirements.
Lifezone Metals intends to take all actions necessary for it to maintain compliance as a foreign private issuer under the applicable corporate governance requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the rules adopted by the SEC and the NYSE corporate governance rules and listing standards.
Because Lifezone Metals is a foreign private issuer, its directors and senior management are not subject to short-swing profit recovery provisions under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. They are, however, subject to insider trading reporting obligations under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and related SEC rules effective as of March 18, 2026, as well as, to the extent applicable, the obligation to report changes in share ownership under Section 13 of the Exchange Act and related SEC rules.

The prospectus covers the resale of an aggregate of up to 500,000 Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants issued to Taurus pursuant to the Waiver Letter in connection with the Bridge Facility. For more information, see “Prospectus Summary—The Ordinary Shares We Are Registering,”
The Selling Securityholder may from time to time offer and sell any or all of the securities set forth below pursuant to this prospectus.
The table below sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus, the name of the Selling Securityholder for which we are registering securities for resale to the public and the number of Ordinary Shares that the Selling Securityholder may offer pursuant to this prospectus and the total amount of our securities beneficially owned by the Selling Securityholder. The SEC has defined “beneficial ownership” of a security to mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of voting power and/or investment power over such security. A shareholder is also deemed to be, as of any date, the beneficial owner of all securities that such shareholder has the right to acquire within 60 days after that date through (i) the exercise of any option, warrant or right, (ii) the conversion of a security, (iii) the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement or (iv) the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, Ordinary Shares subject to warrants, options or other rights (as set forth above) held by that person that are currently exercisable, or will become exercisable within 60 days thereafter, are deemed outstanding, while such shares are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing percentage ownership of any other person.
We cannot advise you as to whether the Selling Securityholder will in fact sell any or all of the Ordinary Shares offered by this prospectus. In addition, the Selling Securityholder may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the Ordinary Shares in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date of this prospectus, subject to applicable law.

Lifezone Metals is an Isle of Man company limited by shares and its affairs are governed by its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (“A&R Articles of Association”) and the Companies Act 2006 of the Isle of Man (the “IOM Companies Act”) (each as amended or modified from time to time).
As provided in the A&R Articles of Association, subject to the IOM Companies Act, Lifezone Metals has unlimited capacity to carry on or undertake any business or activity, do any act or enter into any transaction.
The registered office of Lifezone Metals is 2nd Floor, St George’s Court, Upper Church Street, Douglas, IM1 1EE, Isle of Man.
The A&R Articles of Association authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of Ordinary Shares in Lifezone Metals unless otherwise directed by the Board. All of the outstanding Ordinary Shares in Lifezone Metals are fully paid and non-assessable. As of June 30, 2026, 89,914,557 Ordinary Shares were issued and outstanding and 14,391,041 Public Warrants were outstanding. In addition, as of June 30, 2026, Lifezone Metals had outstanding (i) warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 3,000,000 Ordinary Shares, which were issued June 29, 2026 and August 8, 2025, respectively, to Taurus in connection with the Bridge Facility, (ii) warrants exercisable for 4,411,764 Ordinary Shares, which were issued on November 12, 2025, pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated November 10, 2025, with BTIG, LLC, and (iii) US$50 million of convertible debentures, which were issued March 27, 2024.

For convenience, we have included below summaries of material provisions of the A&R Articles of Association insofar as they relate to the material terms of the Ordinary Shares of Lifezone Metals.
Lifezone Metals’ Ordinary Shares
Voting Rights
Except as otherwise specified in the memorandum and articles of association of Lifezone Metals (the “A&R Articles of Association”) or as required by law or NYSE rules, holders of Ordinary Shares registered in the register of members of Lifezone Metals (with Company number 020550V) will vote as a single class. Holders of Ordinary Shares shall at all times vote together on all resolutions submitted to a vote of the members. Voting at any meeting of members is by show of hands unless a poll is demanded. A poll may be demanded by the chairperson of such meeting, at least five members present in person or by proxy, or by a member or members present in person or by proxy representing not less than one-tenth of the voting rights of all the members.
The holders of Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. The A&R Articles of Association do not provide for cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors. The Board is divided into three classes, each consisting initially of an equal number of directors (to the extent feasible).
Transfer
All Ordinary Shares are issued in registered form and may be freely transferred under the A&R Articles of Association, unless any such transfer is restricted or prohibited by another instrument, the NYSE rules or applicable securities laws.
Under the A&R Articles of Association, uncertificated Ordinary Shares that are listed on a recognized exchange may be transferred without the need for a written instrument of transfer if the transfer is carried out in accordance with the laws, rules, procedures and other requirements applicable to shares listed on the recognized exchange and subject to the A&R Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 of the Isle of Man (the “IOM Companies Act”) and the Isle of Man Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2006.

Purchase of Ordinary Shares by Lifezone Metals
The IOM Companies Act and the A&R Articles of Association permit Lifezone Metals to purchase its own shares with the prior written consent of the relevant members, or pursuant to an offer to all members, on such terms and in such manner as may be determined by the Board and by a resolution of directors in accordance with the prescribed requirements of the IOM Companies Act.
Dividends and Distributions
Pursuant to the A&R Articles of Association and the IOM Companies Act the Board may from time to time declare dividends and other distributions, and authorize payment thereof, if the Board is satisfied that, in accordance with the IOM Companies Act, immediately after the payment of any such dividend or distribution, (a) Lifezone Metals will be able to pay its debts as they become due in the normal course of its business and (b) the value of Lifezone Metals’ assets will exceed the value of its liabilities. Each Lifezone Metals ordinary share has equal rights with regard to dividends and to distributions of the surplus assets of Lifezone Metals, if any.
Other Rights
Under the A&R Articles of Association, the holders of Ordinary Shares are not entitled to any pre-emptive rights or anti-dilution rights. Ordinary Shares are not subject to any sinking fund provisions.
Issuance of Additional Shares
The A&R Articles of Association authorize the Board to issue additional Ordinary Shares from time to time as the Board shall determine, subject to the IOM Companies Act and the provisions, if any, in the A&R Articles of Association and, where applicable, the rules and regulations of any applicable exchange, the SEC and/or any other competent regulatory authority and without prejudice to any rights attached to any existing shares.
However, under Isle of Man law, Lifezone Metals’ directors may only exercise the rights and powers granted to them under the A&R Articles of Association for a proper purpose and for what they believe in good faith to be in the best interests of Lifezone Metals.
Meetings of Shareholders
Under the A&R Articles of Association, Lifezone Metals is required to hold an annual general meeting each year. The Board may call an annual general meeting on not less than 21 clear days’ notice or an extraordinary general meeting upon not less than 14 clear days’ notice unless such notice is waived in accordance with the A&R Articles of Association. A meeting notice must specify, among other things, the place, day and time of the meeting and the general nature of the business to be conducted at such meeting. At any meeting of Lifezone Metals shareholders, one or more shareholders entitled to attend and to vote on the business to be transacted and holding more than 50% of the Ordinary Shares shall be a quorum. Subject to the requirements of the IOM Companies Act and Isle of Man law, only those matters set forth in the notice of the general meeting or (solely in the case of a meeting convened upon a Members’ Requisition (as defined below)) properly requested in connection with a Members’ Requisition may be considered or acted upon at a meeting of Lifezone Metals shareholders.
10
Each general meeting, other than an annual general meeting, shall be an extraordinary general meeting. Under the IOM Companies Act shareholders have the right to require the directors to call an extraordinary general meetings of shareholders (a “Members’ Requisition”). To properly call an extraordinary general meeting pursuant to a Members’ Requisition, (a) the request of shareholders representing not less than 10% of the voting power represented by all issued and outstanding shares of Lifezone Metals in respect of the matter for which such meeting is requested must be deposited at the registered office of Lifezone Metals and (b) the requisitioning shareholders must comply with certain information requirements specified in the A&R Articles of Association.
In connection with any meeting of shareholders, the right of a shareholder to bring other business or to nominate a candidate for election to the Board must be exercised in compliance with the requirements of the A&R Articles of Association. Among other things, notice of such other business or nomination must be received at the registered office of Lifezone Metals not later than the close of business on the date that is 120 days before, and not earlier than the close of business on the date that is 150 days before, the one-year anniversary of the preceding year’s annual general meeting, subject to certain exceptions.

A company is required to keep at the office of its registered agent: its memorandum and articles of association of the company; the register of members or a copy of the register of members; the register of directors or a copy of the register of directors; the register of charges (if any) or a copy of the register of charges; copies of all notices and other documents filed by the company in the previous six years; originals or copies of the accounting records required to be kept under the IOM Companies Act; and originals of any financial statements prepared.
Anti-Takeover Provisions
Some provisions of the A&R Articles of Association may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of Lifezone Metals or management that members may consider favorable, including, among other things:
| ● | a classified board of directors with staggered, three-year terms; |
| ● | the ability of the Board to issue preferred shares and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, potentially without shareholder approval; |
| ● | the limitation of liability of, and the indemnification of and advancement of expenses to, members of the Board; |
| ● | advance notice procedures with which members must comply to nominate candidates to the Board or to propose matters to be acted upon at an annual general meeting or extraordinary general meeting, which could preclude members from bringing matters before an annual general meeting or extraordinary general meeting and delay changes in the Board; |
| ● | that members may not act by written consent in lieu of a meeting; |
| ● | the right of the Board to fill vacancies created by the expansion of the Board or the resignation, death or removal of a director; and |
| ● | that the A&R Articles of Association may be amended only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least three-fourths of the votes cast at a general meeting. |
11
However, under Isle of Man law, the directors of Lifezone Metals may only exercise the rights and powers granted to them under the IOM Companies Act for proper purposes and for what they believe in good faith to be in the best interests of Lifezone Metals.
Bridge Facility Warrants
As part of the Bridge Facility transaction, on August 8, 2025, Lifezone Metals issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,500,000 Ordinary Shares, exercisable at $5.42 per share, subject to customary adjustments. The warrants are exercisable at any time after August 8, 2025 and will expire on the date that is the five year anniversary of the August 8, 2025 issue date. In certain circumstances when there is no effective resale registration statement, the holder may exercise the warrants by of a “cashless exercise” or cash settlement.
Pursuant to the Waiver Letter entered into in connection with the Bridge Facility, on June 29, 2026, Lifezone Metals issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 500,000 Ordinary Shares, exercisable at $6.25 per share, subject to customary adjustments. The warrants are exercisable at any time after June 29, 2026 and will expire on the date that is the five year anniversary of the June 29, 2026 issue date. In certain circumstances when there is no effective resale registration statement, the holder may exercise the warrants by of a “cashless exercise” or cash settlement.
At no time may the holder exercise such warrants if the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to such exercise would exceed, when aggregated with all other Ordinary Shares owned by the holder and its affiliates at such time, or any other person acting as a group together with the holder or any of its affiliates, the number of Ordinary Shares which would result in such holder, its affiliates and such other person beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) in excess of 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, provided that the holder may upon notice to Lifezone Metals increase the beneficial ownership limitation to 9.99%.
RDO Warrants
In connection with an underwritten registered direct offering of shares and warrants, on November, 12, 2025, Lifezone Metals issued warrants to purchase up to 4,411,764 Ordinary Shares (the “RDO Warrants”), pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated November 10, 2025, with BTIG, LLC. The exercise price of each RDO Warrant is $4.00. Each RDO Warrant is exercisable for a period of four years. The RDO Warrants may be exercised by means of cash or, in the Company's sole discretion, the holder may elect to receive upon such exercise the net number of Ordinary Shares determined according to a formula set forth in the RDO Warrant (a cashless exercise). However, a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any RDO Warrant that, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 9.99% of the number of issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares following such exercise. However, any holder of a RDO Warrant may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99%, provided that the holder must provide at least 61 days’ prior written notice to the Company prior to the date such increase will be effective. The exercise price of the RDO Warrants, and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the RDO Warrants, are subject to adjustments in the event of stock dividends and certain other events and dilutive issuances affecting the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares. Except under certain circumstances as described in the RDO Warrant, if the Company issues Ordinary Shares at a price per share less than the then current exercise price of the RDO Warrants, the exercise price will be reduced to the greater of (i) such lower price per share or (ii) $2.50.
Convertible Debentures
On March 27, 2024, Lifezone Metals closed a private of US$50 million of unsecured convertible debentures. The unsecured convertible debentures bear interest over a 48-month term, payable quarterly, at a rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 4.0% per annum, subject to a SOFR floor of 3.0%. The debentures can be redeemed early by Lifezone Metals, subject to the achievement of certain conditions, at a price of 105% plus interest otherwise payable to the maturity date. Interest is payable quarterly via a mix of cash and shares during the first two years and all in cash during the last two years.
The debentures are convertible into Ordinary Shares at the option of the holder at a price of US$8.00 per share, subject to customary adjustments. Mandatory conversion can occur if Lifezone Metals’ share price is greater than 50% above the conversion price for any 15 trading days within a 30 consecutive trading days period.
12
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We will not receive any proceeds from any sale by the Selling Securityholder of the Ordinary Shares being registered hereunder. However, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of the warrants if the Selling Securityholder exercises a warrant for cash. We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the securities offered by this prospectus, whereas the Selling Securityholder will bear all incremental selling expenses, including commissions, brokerage fees and other similar selling expenses.
The Selling Securityholder may offer and sell, from time to time, some or all of the securities covered by this prospectus. We have registered the securities covered by this prospectus for offer and sale so that those securities may be freely sold to the public by the Selling Securityholder. Registration of the securities covered by this prospectus does not mean, however, that those securities necessarily will be offered or resold by the Selling Securityholder.
Sales of the securities offered hereby may be effected by the Selling Securityholder from time to time in one or more types of transactions (which may include block transactions) on the NYSE at prevailing market prices, in negotiated transactions, through put or call options transactions relating to the securities offered hereby, through short sales of the securities offered hereby, or a combination of such methods of sale. Such transactions may or may not involve brokers or dealers. In effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the Selling Securityholder may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Broker-dealer transactions may include purchases of the securities by a broker-dealer as principal and resales of the securities by the broker-dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus, ordinary brokerage transactions or transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the Selling Securityholder and/or the purchasers of the securities offered hereby for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions). Any broker-dealers participating in the distribution of the securities covered by this prospectus may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by any of those broker-dealers may be deemed to be underwriting commissions under the underwriting commissions under the Securities Act.
There can be no assurance that the Selling Securityholder will sell all or any of the securities offered by this prospectus. In addition, the Selling Securityholder may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, or in other transactions exempt from registration, rather than under this prospectus. Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met: (i) the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company; (ii) the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; (iii) the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and materials required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than current reports; and (iv) at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 20-F type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company (which we filed with the SEC on July 11, 2023).
The Selling Securityholder have the sole and absolute discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of securities if they deem the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time.
13
Upon our being notified by any Selling Securityholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of securities offered hereby through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing:
| ● | the name of the participating broker-dealer(s); |
| ● | the specific securities involved; |
| ● | the initial price at which such securities are to be sold; |
| ● | the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable; and |
| ● | other facts material to the transaction. |
To the extent required, we will use our reasonable commercial efforts to file one or more supplements to this prospectus to describe any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this prospectus or any material change to such information.
Indemnification
We may indemnify, dealers or agents who participate in the distribution of securities against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and agree to contribute to payments which these dealers or agents may be required to make.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling Lifezone Metals pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Lifezone Metals has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
14

SERVICE OF PROCESS AND ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES UNDER U.S. SECURITIES LAWS
Lifezone Metals is an Isle of Man company and substantially all of its assets and operations are located outside of the U.S. In addition, certain of Lifezone Metals’ directors and officers reside outside the U.S. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the U.S. or elsewhere upon these persons. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in the jurisdictions in which Lifezone Metals operates or Isle of Man courts judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against Lifezone Metals and its officers and directors, certain of whom are not residents in the U.S. and the substantial majority of whose assets are located outside of the U.S. It may be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against Lifezone Metals in the Isle of Man if you believe your rights under the U.S. securities laws have been infringed. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Isle of Man or jurisdictions in which Lifezone Metals operates would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts against Lifezone Metals or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the U.S. or any state and it is uncertain whether such Isle of Man or courts in jurisdictions in which Lifezone Metals operates would hear original actions brought in the Isle of Man or jurisdictions in which Lifezone Metals operates against Lifezone Metals or such persons predicated upon the securities laws of the U.S. or any state.

Item 8. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Subject to the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 of the Isle of Man (the “IOM Companies Act”), the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (“A&R Articles of Association”) of Lifezone Metals Limited (“Lifezone Metals”) provide that Lifezone Metals shall indemnify each of its directors and officers (including former directors and officers) out of its assets, to the fullest extent permissible under the laws of the Isle of Man, against any liability, action, proceeding, claim, demand, costs, damages or expenses, including legal expenses, whatsoever, which any of those directors or officers may incur as a result of any act or failure to act in carrying out their functions unless that liability arises through their actual fraud or willful default. The IOM Companies Act permits the indemnification of directors and officers provided that such person acted honestly and in good faith and in what such person believed to be in the best interests of the company and, in the case of criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that the conduct of such person was unlawful.
Costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by a director or officer in connection with the defense of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving them may be paid by Lifezone Metals in advance of the final disposition of such proceedings upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it shall be determined by final judgment that the director is not entitled to be indemnified by Lifezone Metals in accordance with its A&R Articles of Association.
The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the A&R Articles of Association is not exclusive of any other rights to which the person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled.
The directors, on behalf of Lifezone Metals, may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any current or former director or other officer of Lifezone Metals against any liability which, by virtue of any rule of law, would otherwise attach to such person in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which such person may be guilty in relation to Lifezone Metals.
In addition, Lifezone Metals has purchased and intends to maintain standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided to its directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and to Lifezone Metals with respect to payments which may be made by Lifezone Metals to such directors and officers pursuant to the above indemnification provision or otherwise as a matter of law.

Item 10. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
| (1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
| (i) | To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; |
| (ii) | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and |
| (iii) | To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. |
Provided, however, that Paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (ii), and (iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form F-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or, as to a registration statement on Form F-3, is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
| (2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
| (3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
| (4) | To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act need not be furnished, provided that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to registration statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or Item 8.A of Form 20-F if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the s Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Form F-3. |
II-3
| (5) | That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, if the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use. |
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such Director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
