Jaguar Partners Program (Parceiros do Jaguar)
Centaurus also continued to deliver the Jaguar Partners  
Program (Parceiros do Jaguar), which provides training and 
information sessions for local businesses interested in supplying 
goods and services to the Project. The initiative aims to 
strengthen local supplier capacity and prepare companies to  
meet the requirements necessary to participate in the Project’s 
supply chain. 
During the year, 63 companies completed the training and 
received participation certificates.
Towards the end of the year, Centaurus delivered a session 
in the Minerasul Village, where the participants consisted 
entirely of women, with six local female business owners also in 
attendance, reflecting the growing role of women in the region’s 
economic development. The program supports entrepreneurship, 
strengthens local businesses and promotes inclusive participation 
in future economic opportunities linked to the Project.
Community Initiatives and Programs
During 2025, Centaurus implemented a range of community 
initiatives designed to strengthen transparency, environmental 
awareness and local participation in the region where the JNP  
is located. 
Open Doors (Two Portas Abertas) Programs were delivered in 
partnership with the Brazilian Mining Institute (IBRAM), providing 
participants from the Capacita Jaguar training program with 
greater insight into mining operations and project development. 
Residents from Tucumã, Ourilândia do Norte and São Félix do 
Xingu, along with the villages of Minerasul and Ladeira Vermelha, 
attended technical presentations on the JNP, engaged with 
environmental, social, safety and project development specialists 
and participated in guided site visits. 
The program received 100% participant approval, reinforcing 
Centaurus’ commitment to transparent engagement with local 
stakeholders.
Centaurus also continued its community recycling initiative, 
encouraging employees and local residents to collect plastic 
bottle caps and aluminium can tabs for donation to charitable 
organisations. By the end of 2025, approximately 130kg of plastic 
caps and 11.5kg of aluminium tabs had been donated, supporting 
the provision of essential medical equipment such as wheelchairs 
and hospital beds.
Environmental education activities were also delivered in local 
schools in the in the Ladeira Vermelha and Minerasul villages in 
São Félix do Xingu, reaching more than 500 students. Sessions 
focused on waste segregation and recycling, preservation areas, 
forest fire prevention, domestic safety and opportunities for 
women in the mining sector.
During the year, Centaurus also launched the Sow to Educate 
(Semear para Educar) program, establishing two school gardens 
within the JNP area. Developed in partnership with local schools, 
municipal authorities and community members, the initiative 
promotes environmental education, sustainable food production 
and healthy eating. 
The gardens provide hands-on learning opportunities covering 
soil health, plant life cycles and organic waste reuse, while part 
of the produce contributes to school meals, supporting student 
nutrition and local food security.

CENTAURUS METALS LIMITED     ANNUAL REPORT
I have worked at the school for many years, and I have 
seen first-hand the difference the garden has made 
to our daily life. It has improved the children’s diet, 
brought more life to the school, and even contributed 
to improvements in the school’s infrastructure and 
water supply. It has been a very positive change, not 
only for the school, but for the whole community.
