Historical Information

The information in this presentation has been reviewed and approved by Dr. Scott Jobin-Bevans, P.Geo., who is a Qualified Person for the Company under the definitions established by National Instrument 43-101 (“ NI 43-101 ”) ~~. A qualified person, as defined by NI 43-101, has not done sufficient enough work to verify the historical assay results and technical information reported herein.~~ 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, ~~2010.2~~ 010 (the “ Historical Repor t”). A qualified person, as defined by NI 43-101, has not done sufficient work to verify the historical assay results and technical information reported herein. The Company is not treating the Historical report as current. The reader is cautioned not to rely upon any of the historical report, or - the estimates therein. The historical estimates and presented herein as geological information only, as a guide to follow up technical work, and for targeting of confirmation and exploration drilling.

The ~~historical mineral resources were calculated by constructing a series of 3D wireframes for lithologies and the nickel sulphide mineralization. After review, SRK composited all assay data to one metre lengths and sub-divided the sulphide mineralization into three grade domains for geostatistical analysis and grade estimation and seven sub-domains for variography. Appropriate top cuts were selected for each metal in each domain after review of cumulative probability curves. Variography was conducted for nickel, copper and cobalt in each domain. Variography was completed on capped composited domainal data to generally produce two structure isotropic variograms (within the X-Y plane). Nickel, copper and cobalt grades were estimated in each of the domains separately using ordinary kriging, with estimation parameters derived from variography. Platinum and palladium grades in all three domains were estimated using an inverse distance algorithm. Two estimation passes were used for assigning grades to each domain, considering appropriate estimation parameters and search neighbourhood sizing. Parent block model size was set at five by five by five metres, which were sub-blocked within Datamine Studio Version 3 to ensure that wireframe volumetrics were honoured. Mineral resources for the Langmuir W4 deposit were classified according to the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (December 2005) by Sebastien Bernier, P.Geo (OGQ#1034) and Glen Cole, P.Geo (APGO#1416), appropriate independent qualified persons for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101. The mineral resources are classified as Indicated and Inferred, primarily based on block distance from the nearest informing composites and on variography results. Classification is based on nickel data alone.~~

~~In order to determine the quantities of material offering~~ “ ~~reasonable prospects for economic extraction~~ ” ~~by an open pit, SRK used the Lerchs-Grossman optimizing algorithm within Whittle to evaluate the profitability of each resource block and adjusted optimization parameters in collaboration with Golden Chalice and by benchmarking with similar projects. The optimization also considered conceptual metallurgical recoveries and a nickel price of US$8 per pound. The conceptual pit shell drives to a maximum depth of 170 metres below the surface. Resource blocks above this depth were considered by SRK to be amenable to open pit extraction and blocks below this depth amenable to underground mining methods and are reported as such. The mineral resources were reported on the basis of nickel content only. Copper, cobalt and platinum and palladium grades were estimated in the block model, however, cobalt and platinum and palladium do not contribute significantly to the value of the nickel sulphide mineralization. Open pit mineral resources are reported at a cut-off of 0.40% Ni, whereas underground mineral resources are reported at 0.70% Ni.~~

~~There are no recent estimates or data available to the Company. Verification of the historical mineral resources would require twinning of historical drill holes and resampling of associated drill core in order to generate a statistically significant number of samples within the area of the historical resources. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources and the Company is not treating the historical estimates as current mineral resources. Investors should not rely on the historical estimates as current mineral resources until they have been verified and supported in a technical report in accordance with NI 43-101.I~~ ssuer is not using the Historical Report and any historical estimate therein in an economic analysis or as the basis for a production decision, it will not be adding on or building on the historical estimate or adds the historical estimate to current mineral resource or mineral reserve estimates.

  • 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[(] ~~[2] 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)]

Nickel Fundamentals Remain Strong For the Foreseeable Future

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)]
