-potential for significant upside to the current defined resource inventory -
strong copper sulphide mineralisation
-
over a strike length of over 700m with mineralisation open all along strike
-
work programs have been designed which would potentially enable definition of a resource

Key assumptions
-
Long term manganese price of US$5.40/dmtu

Manganese
----- End of picture text -----
A critical element in steel manufacture with no satisfactory substitute
-
Fourth-most globally consumed metal by weight behind iron, aluminium and copper
-
90% of supply is used in steel production; 10% used in battery production, chemicals and aluminium cans
-
While manganese is abundant globally, high-grade manganese is not
-
global high-grade manganese sector is dominated by just a few players
-
Long term demand will continue to rise in parallel with increasing global steel production
-
driven by industrialisation, urbanisation and infrastructure development

Growth strategy
----- End of picture text -----
To become a multi-mine and multi-commodity business through acquisition and organic growth…
-
Identifying high priority commodities and locations that leverage MZM’s previous experience and strengths
-
Actively seeking assets that will deliver near term production
-
Building a mid-tier multi-mine business with sufficient geographical and commodity spread to balance risk profile
-
Identifying appropriate divestment/consolidation opportunities for current assets that will assist in unlocking value (cash) to support growth strategy
… and develop assets delivering near term production
