No responsibility for any errors or omissions from this presentation arising out of negligence or otherwise is accepted.

• This presentation may include forward looking statements. Forward looking statements are only predictions and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are outside the control of Centaurus Metals. These risks, uncertainties and assumptions include commodity prices, currency fluctuations, economic and financial market conditions in various countries and regions, environmental risks and legislative, fiscal or regulatory developments, political risks, project delay or advancement, approvals and cost estimates. Actual values, results or events may be materially different to those expressed or implied in this presentation. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place reliance on forward looking statements. Any forward-looking statements in this presentation speak only at the date of issue of this presentation.

• The Scoping Study referred to in this presentation has been undertaken for the purpose of initial evaluation of a potential development of the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project. It is a preliminary technical and economic study (±40%) of the potential viability of the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project. The Scoping Study outcomes, Production Target and forecast financial information referred to in this presentation are based on low accuracy level technical and economic assessments that are insufficient to support estimation of Ore Reserves. While each of the modifying factors was considered and applied, there is no certainty of eventual conversion to Ore Reserves or that the Production Target itself will be realised. Further exploration and evaluation work and appropriate studies are required before Centaurus will be in a position to estimate any Ore Reserves or to provide any assurance of an economic development case.

• Assumptions also include assumptions about the availability of funding. While Centaurus considers that all the material assumptions are based on reasonable grounds, there is no certainty that they will prove to be correct or that the range of outcomes indicated by this study will be achieved. To achieve the range of outcomes indicated in the Scoping Study, pre-production funding in the order of US$288M will likely be required. There is no certainty that Centaurus will be able to source that amount of funding when required. It is also possible that such funding may only be available on terms that may be dilutive to or otherwise affect the value of Centaurus’s shares. It is also possible that Centaurus could pursue other value realisation strategies such as a sale, partial sale or joint venture of the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project. This could materially reduce Centaurus’s proportionate ownership of the Jaguar Nickel Sulphide Project.

• The information in this report that relates to Exploration Results is based on information compiled by Mr Roger Fitzhardinge who is a Member of the Australasia Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Fitzhardinge is a permanent employee and shareholder of Centaurus Metals Limited. Mr Fitzhardinge has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’. Mr Fitzhardinge consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.

• The information in this report that relates to the March 2021 Jaguar Mineral Resources is based on information compiled by Mr Lauritz Barnes (consultant with Trepanier Pty Ltd) and Mr Roger Fitzhardinge (a permanent employee and shareholder of Centaurus Metals Limited). Mr Barnes and Mr Fitzhardinge are both members of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Barnes and Mr Fitzhardinge have sufficient experience of relevance to the styles of mineralisation and types of deposits under consideration, and to the activities undertaken to qualify as Competent Persons as defined in the 2012 Edition of the Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Specifically, Mr Fitzhardinge is the Competent Person for the database (including all drilling information), the geological and mineralisation models plus completed the site visits. Mr Barnes is the Competent Person for the construction of the 3-D geology / mineralisation model plus the estimation. Mr Barnes and Mr Fitzhardinge consent to the inclusion in this report of the matters based on their information in the form and context in which they appear.

• The company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original market announcements and, in the case of estimates of Mineral Resources, that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the original market announcements continue to apply and have not materially changed. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the competent persons findings have not been materially modified from the original announcement.

• This presentation contains information extracted from the Company’s ASX market announcements dated 29 March 2021 and 31 May 2021 which are available on the Company’s website at www.centaurus.com.au . The Company confirms that that all material assumptions underpinning the Jaguar Project Scoping Studies as detailed in the ASX market announcements of 29 March 2021 and 31 May 2021 continue to apply and have not materially changed.

Centaurus Metals Our vision

==> picture [623 x 262] intentionally omitted <==

Underpinned by a high-quality asset at Jaguar, we are well placed to deliver on our target to be a clean and efficient 20,000-plus tonne per annum nickel producer by the end of 2024 to assist in the global transition to electrification and to meet anticipated surging demand for key battery metals.

A New Era of Nickel Sulphide Demand The looming clean energy revolution

==> picture [291 x 219] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [267 x 224] intentionally omitted <==

Source: Macquarie Commodities Strategy Source: Roskill

WHERE IS THE NEW SUPPLY COMING FROM?

EVs and the path to decarbonisation require Class-1 nickel

Class-1 nickel will preferentially be sourced from sulphide deposits – low capital intensity, easy processing, lowest carbon footprint

Decades of limited nickel exploration means a very low pipeline of new projects, especially lowercost, lower-emission sulphide projects in geopolitically safe mining jurisdictions.

• Current nickel market size ~2.5Mtpa

CENTAURUS WELL PLACED TO BE PART OF THE SOLUTION

• Nickel demand for batteries growing strongly from a low base

• Depending on the scenario for the EV rate of adoption, estimated nickel volumes to meet this additional demand vary between 1-1.5 million tonnes

• Nickel to remain critical to EV market no matter which type of cathode is adopted

Key investment takeaways

• Nickel focus – sustainable nickel sulphide asset leveraged to strong long-term Class-1 nickel market outlook

• Extremely low carbon footprint – estimated to be lower than 97% of global nickel production

• Favourable infrastructure-rich project location – the world-class Carajás Mineral Province

• Globally Significant Maiden JORC Resource – 58.9Mt at 0.96% Ni for 562,600 tonnes of contained nickel

• Project Scope currently shows Mill Feed of 33.7Mt @ 1.01% Ni for 341,300t of nickel to produce +20ktpa of nickel in sulphate and a MSP over initial mine life of 13 years

• Low capital intensity, low operating costs and strong cash flow generation (A$252 million per annum LOM)

• Strong returns: Post ‐ tax NPV8 of ~A$1.11 billion (US$831 million) with a post-tax IRR of ~52% @ US$7.50/lb

• Outstanding growth potential – deposits open at depth and along strike with further drilling underway; multiple greenfields prospects with walk-up drill targets (65km of drilling in 2021)

• The right team and well funded for exploration & feasibility study work – ~$20 million (EOQ - June 2021) Centaurus represents a rare opportunity to invest in a rapidly unfolding high-grade nickel sulphide growth story in Brazil, at the perfect time in the nickel market cycle.
