Offtake Update

Earlier this year, Boab conducted a series of preliminary soundings with a number of leading base metals smelters and traders. The purpose of the Preliminary Offtake Soundings was to build relationships between Boab and a range of Tier 1 offtake partners, to receive indicative offtake terms for the concentrate to be produced from Sorby Hills, and to garner feedback to inform the ongoing Sorby Hills Definitive Feasibility Study.

The preliminary soundings were extremely positive, demonstrating significant demand for the Sorby Hills Lead-Silver concentrate, which is of a quality that does not attract penalty element charges based on the detailed Pre-Feasibility Study (“ PFS ”) concentrate assay specification. Feedback from the preliminary soundings also provided useful insights for the ongoing DFS metallurgical program and Lead market dynamics more generally.

Following these preliminary soundings, Boab commenced a formal competitive tender process for Boab’s share of the Sorby Hills concentrate. Offtake Proposals received to date from leading international and domestic offtakers have offered attractive terms and have confirmed strong demand for the high quality Sorby Hills Lead-Silver concentrate. Proponents providing the strongest proposals have been shortlisted, and the tender process to award binding offtake of the Sorby Hills concentrate is on track for completion in Q1 2022.

The Company intends to provide a further update to the market on the conclusion of this process.
