High-grade PGE-Ni-Cu-Co was intersected in the very first drill hole at Julimar – a remarkable new discovery in a new mineral province

==> picture [117 x 67] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [959 x 13] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [348 x 440] intentionally omitted <==

  • Project staked in early 2018 ( 100% owned )

  • First drill hole in March 2020 intersected 25m @ 8.5g/t Pd, 0.9g/t Pt, 0.1g/t Au, 2.0% Ni, 0.9% Cu, 0.11% Co from 46m

  • Discovery made ~70km NE of Perth – named Gonneville

  • • Gonneville is part of a ~26km long, unexplored magnetic feature – now known as the Julimar Complex (a layered mafic-ultramafic complex)

  • Gonneville discovery made on private farmland; remaining ~24km of strike along the Complex yet to be drilled

  • >8,000km[2] of new licence applications since the discovery in the new West Yilgarn Ni-Cu-PGE Province → leveraging our competitive advantage to make additional discoveries

  • Gonneville discovery being advanced rapidly in parallel to initial regional exploration ( area almost totally unexplored for Ni-Cu-PGEs )

  • Favourable location with direct access to major highway, rail, power, port infrastructure as well as large local workforce

7

Gonneville is an exceptional PGE-nickel-copper-cobalt-gold discovery which is emerging as a world-class deposit

  • ~1.8km x >0.9km intrusion, open to the north, hosting:

  • Eleven shallow high-grade PGE-NiCu-Co+/-Au zones (G1-G11, using >1g/t Pd cut-off) – all remain open

  • >220 isolated high-grade (>1g/t Pd) intersections outside the eleven zones

  • Widespread PGE mineralisation associated with disseminated sulphides (0.5-2.0g/t PGEs+Au) surrounding the high-grade zones, proven to ~800m below surface

  • Widespread Pd-rich oxide zones (0.8-1.5g/t Pd) from surface to a depth of ~25m

  • ~350 holes for ~90,000m completed to date

  • ~160,000m step-out and resource definition drill program ongoing – 3 RC and 4 diamond rigs

  • Maiden MRE targeted for late Q3 2021

8

The eleven high-grade zones have significant strike length and extend from ~25m to ~550m below surface thus far (zones remain open)

Approach

Phase 2 metallurgical testwork program commenced in Q4 2020 – investigating flotation of sulphide mineralisation and leaching of oxide mineralisation, as well as detailed mineralogical analysis to determine PGE deportment

  • Two commercially attractive, high-grade Cu-PGE-Au and Ni-PGE concentrates produced

  • Tests to date indicate good concentrate grades and metal recoveries are likely using a conventional sequential flotation flowsheet – optimisation work now underway

  • Low levels of potentially deleterious elements (As, Cd, Se, Te, Hg, Pb, F, Cl) in concentrates produced to date

  • Leach tests indicate 76% Pd and 95% Au extraction into solution

Oxide

  • Further work underway to determine effect on PGE recovery over a range of grind sizes and temperatures, as well as the optimal techniques to recover metals from solution

1 Conservation Management Plan – a plan outlining Chalice’s proposed exploration approach within the Julimar State Forest. 2 Access to the Julimar State Forest for drilling activities has not yet been granted. The Company continues to engage with relevant government entities to progress its CMP approval and the above timeline is an estimate only

13

The Julimar Project has the potential to deliver significant jobs, skills and economic diversification to the Wheatbelt region of WA

==> picture [117 x 67] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [959 x 13] intentionally omitted <==

Environment

==> picture [315 x 175] intentionally omitted <==

  • Numerous case studies of successful mining projects in or around State Forest areas in WA (Boddington, Alcoa WA, Worsley, Greenbushes)

  • Chalice has taken a proactive approach to environmental practices – baseline flora, fauna, heritage and dieback surveys undertaken on private farmland

  • Additional flora, fauna, heritage and dieback surveys within the Julimar State Forest are underway

  • Planning low-impact drilling techniques within the Julimar State Forest (small footprint diamond rigs) which do not require any vegetation clearing

  • Internal environmental expertise being built

Community

==> picture [315 x 175] intentionally omitted <==

  • Proximity to major communities provides a unique opportunity to build a workforce of local permanent residents (drive in, drive out)

  • Growing employment opportunities – operations already having positive economic impact on local and surrounding economies

  • Community Fact Sheets and Newsletters developed to deliver information on environment, community consultation, exploration licences and exploration activities

  • Active, open and transparent engagement continues with key stakeholders

  • Growing community funding to achieve long term positive impacts

14

The Julimar discovery has kick-started the new West Yilgarn Ni-Cu-PGE Province, which could deliver more major discoveries

  • The ‘giant’ orthomagmatic Ni-Cu-PGE sulphide deposits, such as Norilsk, Jinchuan, the Thompson Belt and Voisey’s Bay, are located proximal to the margin of Archean age cratons

Chalice has >8,000km[2] of new licences / applications over ~1,000km of the western margin of the Yilgarn Craton, which is almost entirely unexplored for these mineral systems

  • Initial geological interpretation and target ranking has identified hundreds of potential intrusions within the new province

Exploration at Chalice’s four project areas will commence progressively as tenure progresses to grant

  • Potential for several major discoveries in this new province

2021 OUTLOOK

We are on track to define a maiden resource at Julimar, continue to build trust with our key stakeholders and leverage our discovery

==> picture [117 x 67] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [959 x 13] intentionally omitted <==

Define a maiden JORC Mineral Resource Estimate and outline the potential for a commercially viable mining operation for the Gonneville PGE-Ni-Cu-Co-Au discovery

Make a significant new discovery, which shows strong potential to be economic

Maintain a pipeline of discovery opportunities to complement the current portfolio

Continue to build our operational team, with a focus on internal resourcing and nurture our culture of ownership, sustainable success and ideation

Strengthen our financial position, and continue to exercise discipline on capital management

Continue to build trust with our key stakeholders at the Julimar Project – landowners, indigenous peoples, local communities and governing organisations

Expand our sustainability presence (environmental, social and governance) to uphold our social licence to operate

Chalice has adopted a systematic value-add approach across its >5,000km[2] land holding – ‘find the big gold systems first’

  • Our Project covers hundreds of kilometres of prospective strike:

  • Muckleford (>300km)

  • Mt William (>75km)

  • Percydale (>40km)

  • Prior to Chalice most of the area essentially un-drilled

  • • Our regional-scale activities commenced in mid-2018:

Phase 1. Screen the thin cover (<100m) areas with widespaced recon Phase 2. Infill and sampling + AC drilling vector towards targets with tier-1 Phase 3. Drill-out scale potential prospects and revisit other targets

Diamond drilling on 2 highpriority prospects → Karri and Ironbark + recon AC over new areas

==> picture [40 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [40 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

700 AC holes completed across ~10 targets >15 lower-priority targets → drilling on hold for now
