Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts. Words such as “expect(s)”, “feel(s)”, “believe(s)”, “will”, “may”, “anticipate(s)” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements include, but are not limited to statements regarding future production, resources or reserves and exploration results. All such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond the control of the Company, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: (i) those relating to the interpretation of drill results, the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits and conclusions of economic evaluations, (ii) risks relating to possible variations in reserves, grade, planned mining dilution and ore loss, or recovery rates and changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined, (iii) the potential for delays in exploration or development activities or the completion of feasibility studies, (iv) risks related to commodity price and foreign exchange rate fluctuations, (v) risks related to failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and on acceptable terms or delays in obtaining governmental approvals or in the completion of development or construction activities, and (vi) other risks and uncertainties related to the Company’s prospects, properties and business strategy. Our audience is cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof, and we do not undertake any obligation to revise and disseminate forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof, or to reflect the occurrence of or non-occurrence of any events.
NEW HIGH GRADE COBALT-COPPER-GOLD PROJECT
ASX : CZN – PAGE 3
Exclusive right to earn up to an 80% interest in the Mt Gilmore Project
Corazon can earn an initial 51% interest by:
-
Issuing Providence 25 million Corazon Mining Limited shares
-
Paying cash reimbursements of costs totalling $100,000, and
-
Spending $200,000 on exploration within the first 12 months.
Corazon can earn a further 29% interest (totalling 80%) by:
-
Completing $2M in exploration within 3 years from commencement of the Agreement,
-
Paying $150,000 in cash or shares upon the earlier of the commencement of the third year and Corazon spending a minimum of $500,000 on exploration, and
-
Paying $250,000 in cash or shares upon earning 80% equity in the Project.
-
Corazon has the opportunity to extend this earn-in period by one year by paying $50,000 in cash or shares.
-
Upon the Company earning 80% equity in the Project, Providence will be free carried until a decision to mine is made.
-
Once a decision to mine is made, Providence will then have the opportunity to contribute to expenditure requirements according to its working interest, or dilute to a net smelter royalty of 2.0%. Corazon has the right to purchase 1% of the royalty for $3M at any stage.

Future Cobalt Requirements
-
The rechargeable battery market remains the industry’s growth driver, with demand from this sector up 11.7% in 2015.
-
Automotive related battery demand rapidly gaining momentum; Chinese sales of “New Energy Vehicles” up 343% in 2015.
-
Cobalt is the preferred cathode element in lithium ion batteries which currently offer the best commercially accepted energy storage capacity.
-
Refiners are shifting resources and capacity from “lithium cobalt oxide” material production to “lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide” - market to increase 4-fold by 2020.
Supply / Demand Balance
-
Demand growth outpaced supply growth in 2015 – despite suppressed traditional cobalt usage. Market balance expected to move into deficit territory from 2016 onwards.
-
China imports 93% of its cobalt from the DRC – possible supply chain issues. No new cobalt bearing mining projects expected before 2018-2019.
-
Pressure to reduce supply of nickel; 65% of producers under-water at current metal prices.
Cobalt as a by-product of nickel production also to be affected.

Large coincident geophysical and geochemical anomaly
-
High amplitude ‘bullseye’ and linear magnetic high anomalies occur across the target domain.
-
Semi-coincident with magnetite-sulphide CuAu skarns and historic Cu-Au workings.
-
These represent high priority reconnaissance targets given the magnetite association with Cu sulphides.
-
Several magnetic low embayments are semicoincident with Cu-Au workings with silicatourmaline-malachite-chalcopyrite breccia on mullock dumps.
-
A regional gravity high anomaly is also coincident with the Cu-Au skarns and magnetic high anomalies.
