INVESTMENT CASE SUMMARY
-
Start of a Commodities Super-Cycle
-
Battery metals sector is a solid thematic performer that should continue for at least the next decade, in particular the demand for nickel sulphide
-
Nickel price has increased by over 160% from its lows in March 2020 and forecasters suggest this growth will continue (Tim Treadgold, Forbes Jan 14[th] , 2021)
-
ADD is focused on high grade nickel sulphide exploration in Tanzania
-
ADD is a value play in the battery metals thematic, highly leveraged to exploration success
-
Tanzania Open for Business – President Magufuli won second 5- year term and is delivering on foreign investment in mining

Adavale has acquired a very significant historical geological database (which significantly de-risks both protracted cost and timeline of typical early exploration initiatives) and includes:
-
Airborne EM and aeromagnetic survey
-
- baseline geology mapping
-
Geochemical assays and drilling data over much of the region
-
Adavale’s licences were targeted within this prospective belt utilizing historical BHP and UNDP data through identifying a combination of stream/soil anomalies and magnetic lows (indicating underlying mafic/ultramafic intrusions)

LAKE SURPRISE PROJECT, SOUTH AUSTRALIA
==> picture [327 x 106] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [76 x 38] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [718 x 508] intentionally omitted <==
▼The 100% owned Project is in South Australia situated 550 Km north of Adelaide, covering 396 km[2] on the northern flank of the Flinders Ranges. Rocks of the Flinders Ranges and surrounding areas are highly uraniferous and it is amongst one of the world’s most prolific uranium provinces.
-
▼Known uranium orebodies on the eastern side of the Flinders Ranges include Beverley, Honeymoon, Goulds Dam and Yarramba and the Mt Gee project lies in the northern Flinders Ranges about 60 Km from the Lake Surprise Project area.
-
▼The targets are surficial uranium ore bodies in a number of suitable host rocks and roll front style orebodies developed in both Tertiary and Mesozoic host rocks.
| Ministry ID | Area (km2) | Project Location |
|---|---|---|
| EL 5892 | 92km2 | Lake Arthur East, South Australia |

THE JUBILEE PROSPECT
The Jubilee Prospect lies in the northern part of EL5893 and contains zones of strong uranium enrichment that lie within a northtrending paleochannel system. The main features of the paleochannel system are as follows:
-
▼It is a continuous geochemical anomaly of 1900m length x 50m width at approximately 200ppm eU3O8. This is predominantly based on gamma logging with limited geochemical analysis from handheld equipment.
-
▼The system contains an equivalent U3O8 concentration downhole up to 611 ppm (0.06%) calculated by calibration of gamma logs against Handheld XRF analysis of diamond drill core

THE MOOKAWARINNA AND CANE GRASS PROSPECTS
==> picture [76 x 38] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [327 x 106] intentionally omitted <==
The Mookawarinna Prospect is in the south-central part of EL 5893 and has widely spaced drill-holes defining a broad anomalous zone of uranium enrichment. Downhole gamma is recorded in five drillholes within a zone about 9km in strike length
The Cane Grass Swamp prospect was identified as a potential host for uranium that is underlying recently transported sediments to the south of the Jubilee and Mookwarinna Prospects.
- Shallow down-warped fold system is present acting as a potential host for the recent transport of uranium in groundwater or uranium transported from the primary source in the Flinders Ranges when the quartz sands forming the Jubilee Deposit and Mookwarinna Deposit were emplaced
