Growing and Advancing the Langmuir, Ontario Nickel Project, Near Timmins, Ontario

==> picture [77 x 156] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [79 x 158] intentionally omitted <==

  • Definitive Agreement with Rogue Resources Inc. (TSXV:RRS) to acquire 100% of the Langmuir Nickel Project

  • Includes W4, the basis of the 2010 historical estimate of 677K tonnes @ 1% Ni, ~ 15M lbs of Class 1 Nickel[(a)(1)]

  • Significant land position , almost 9,100 Ha to explore; identified 30km of additional strike length

  • Accessible by road and is approx. 30 km southeast of Timmins, Ontario, Canada (6 hours from US border)

  • Favorably located for end-users of Nickel (for example: Tesla, Detroit peers, Nio, SBE, Rivian, etc.)

  • Permitting in Canada is more streamlined than other jurisdictions hosting nickel deposits[(3)]

  • Electric Vehicles (“EV”) driving demand in Ni[(3)]

  • Global primary nickel demand expected to grow at a 4.1% CAGR (2.25Mtpa 2020 to over 5.00Mtpa by 2040)[(4) ]

  • EV sales expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.8% , from 1.7mm in 2020 to an estimated 54mm in 2040[(5)]

  • Fundamentals are strong, Ni Battery segment driving growth, reaching over 1.8Ktpa in 2040 (13.5% CAGR)[(6)]

  • EVs want to source the “cleanest” metals (Langmuir – Canada, hydro power, high-grade sulphide)[(7)]

  • Nickel production declining with limited pipeline of new projects[(8)]

Note: (a) Historical mineral resources for the Langmuir Nickel Property were estimated by SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc., as documented in a report entitled, “Golden Chalice Resources Inc., Mineral Resource Evaluation, Langmuir W4 Project, Ontario, Canada”, dated June 28, 2010 (the “Historical Report”).

(1) The Technical Report had an effective date of July 25, 2021. This budget has been updated to reflect work completed to date on the
Langmuir Project. (2) The Company has incurred higher than expected Phase 1 costs than originally budgeted due primarily to its drilling
program as a result of increased demand in the area. (3) Certain geophysics costs were incurred by the diamond drilling program.

Nickel Fundamentals Remain Strong For the Foreseeable Future

==> picture [92 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

EV Growth, Technological Advances and Shortage of Quality Ni Projects to Drive Continued Ni Price Appreciation

  • 1 Electric vehicles, evolving battery technologies, and green transportation

  • The global primary nickel demand is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.1% from 2.25Mtpa in 2020 to over 5.0Mtpa by 2040[(1)]

  • Battery segment driving growth of nickel demand, reaching over 1.8Ktpa in 2040, growing at a 13.5% CAGR from 2020[(1)]

  • Global electric vehicle sales expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.8%, from 1.7mm in 2020 to an estimated 54mm in 2040[(2)]

  • 2 Quality class 1 nickel (battery grade) deposits are scarce

  • Demand-supply misalignment for the foreseeable future, potential significant deficit as early as 2023 as demand picks up[(3)]

  • 3 Nickel continues to re-rate as the “market/public” understands the fundamentals and importance of this strategic metal  103% nickel price appreciation over the past five years[(4)]
