About Develop
Develop (ASX: DVP) has a twin-pronged strategy for creating value. The first of these centres on the exploration and production of future-facing metals. As part of this, the Company owns the Sulphur Springs copper-zinc-silver project in WA's Pilbara region. This project is currently the focus of ongoing exploration to grow the inventory and various development studies. Develop also owns the Woodlawn zinc-copper project in NSW. Woodlawn, which is on care and maintenance, comprises an underground mine and a new processing plant. The second plank of Develop's strategy centres on the provision of underground mining services. As part of this, Develop has an agreement with Bellevue Gold (ASX: BGL) to provide underground mining services at its Bellevue Gold Project in WA.

This Presentation has been prepared in compliance with the JORC Code 2012 Edition. The 'forward-looking information' contained here is based on the Company's expectations, estimates and projections as of the date on which the statements were made. The Company disclaims any intent or obligations to update or revise any forward looking statements whether as a result of new information, estimates or options, future events or results or otherwise, unless required to do so by law. The Production Target (and the forward looking financial information based on that Production Target) contained in the DFS includes material classified as Ore Reserves and Inferred Resources. Material classified as Ore Reserves contributes ~68% of the material within the LOM Production Target and Inferred Resources contribute ~32% of material included within the LOM Production Target. The mine plan has been sequenced to ensure that the reliance on material contributed from Inferred Resources is minimised within the first 5 years and the Company is satisfied that the proportion of Inferred Resources is not a determining factor for project viability. Nonetheless, the Company notes there is a low level of geological confidence associated with Inferred Resources and there is no certainty that further exploration work will result in the determination of Indicated Resources or that the LOM Production Target insofar as it relates to the Inferred Resources will be realised.

- Located in Tier 1 world-class Pilbara district of Western Australia
- 17.4Mt in Resources; high-grade 1.3% Cu, 4.2% Zn & 17gpt Ag
- Significant Exploration upside on 27km camp scale geological belt
- Definitive Feasibility Study "DFS" completed in Oct-18 key outcomes were;
- ❖ Project NPV8% of A\$472 million
- ❖ Pre-Production Capital A\$169 million
- ❖ Free Cash-Flow (pre-tax real) A\$818 million
- ❖ Average annual payable production of approximately ~27.5ktpa CuEq
- The assumed Copper and Zinc prices in the 2018 DFS are now ~60% higher
- Attractive Copper and Zinc concentrates, Copper offtake is unencumbered
- Final project approvals are expected to be obtained in the second half of CY22
- Aiming for Sulphur Springs to be bankable by the end of CY22
- DFS Life-of-mine mine inventory of 12.6 million tonnes, initial +10yr mine life

A QUALITY PROJECT FOR THE ENERGY REVOLUTION SULPHUR SPRINGS – COPPER/ZINC
- ~32% of the 2018 DFS production target was based on 4 million tonnes of material classified as Inferred Resources
- The underground reserve component is only 56% of total project
- A\$10M drilling program to de-risk and grow the project was completed in CY21 with exceptional thick high-grade copper-zinc mineralisation intersected. Significant results include;
- o 65.1m @ 3.5% CuEq1 (West lens)
- o 54.0m @ 3.1% CuEq1 (East Lens)

A QUALITY PROJECT FOR THE ENERGY REVOLUTION WOODLAWN – ZINC/COPPER

- Acquired the Woodlawn mine in NSW, Australia in Feb-22 for A\$30m upfront and A\$70m in success-driven milestone payments
- Combination with rapidly emerging Sulphur Springs will transform the Company into a major base metals group centered on futurefacing metals in tier-one locations
- Prior owners invested ~A\$340m in the operation; constructing a new box-cut, establishing an underground mine, a 1.0Mtpa processing plant and extensive surface infrastructure
- Woodlawn meets all Develop's strategic and key asset criteria:
- ✓ Clean future-facing metals (zinc and copper) in a Tier-1 location
- ✓ World-class geology: VMS system, strong and profitable historic production, significant potential to grow the inventory
- ✓ Outstanding value for money: Purchase price upfront is <10% of the previously invested capital
- The mine had a profitable 20-year production record, producing 13.8Mt at 19.7% ZnEq2
- Substantial U/G Reserve and Resource (ASX release 17 Feb-22)
- Initial emphasis will be on growing inventory by extending known high-grade lenses – immediate construction of 800m underground development planned to enable drilling from underground
- Underground drilling to commence in the December quarter


IN-MINE GROWTH POTENTIAL
SIGNIFICANT POTENTIAL WITH VARIOUS UNTESTED CONDUCTORS AND OPEN LENSES
- Potential for extension of known lenses and for discovery of additional lenses
- Very limited step-out drilling historically
- Known high-grade lenses remain open
- DHEM data confirms untested conductors at depth
- Leading consultants NewExco identified numerous exploration targets in the due diligence

OUR FLAGSHIP ASSET
