Tim McManus has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralization and type of deposit unde consideration and to the activity being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Tim McMa consents to the inclusion of the information in this document in the form and context in which it appears.

The information in this document that relates to exploration reporting at the San Jorge project is based on Exploration Results compiled by Mr Murray Brooker. Murray Brooker is a geologist and hydrogeologist and is a Membe Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Mr Brooker is an employee of Hydrominex Geoscience Pty Ltd and is independent of Greenwing Resources. Mr Brooker has sufficient relevant experience to qualify as a competent person as defined in the 2012 edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Mr Brooker consents to the inclusion in this announcement of this information in the form and c which it appears.

Subsequent Public Reporting

The information for the JORC Mineral Resource Summary is extracted from the ASX Announcement "41% Increase in Graphite Mineral Resource to Advance Plans for Large Scale Mining and Processing Operations" released 16 March 2021, which is available to view on www.asx.com.au. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original market announcement and all mate assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the relevant market announcement continue to apply and have not materially changed.

Important Notes: 1. An Exploration Target is a statement or estimate of the exploration potential of a mineral deposit in a defined geological setting where the statement or estimate, quoted as a range of tonnes and a range of grade, relates to mineralization for which there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource. The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to estimate an additional Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of an additional Mineral Resource.

The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information in the relevant ASX releases, and the form and context of the announcement has not materially changed. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Persons findings are presented have not been materially modified from the original market announcements.
