Copper – deficits emerging, supply challenges remain, EV boost

==> picture [116 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

  • Impending copper deficit with tightening supply due to declining grades, resource depletion, lack of exploration success

  • The current copper project pipeline has the fewest projects than at any time this century[1]

  • Electric vehicle (“EV”) market offers potential for significant increased copper demand over and above normal demand growth (1.8mt to 2mt by 2027[2] )

Frisco – A unique opportunity to uncover a giant

==> picture [116 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

  • A historical mining district with no modern exploration

  • Prior exploration restricted by fragmented ownership and lack of available data

  • Alderan is the first Company to consolidate mineral rights over the Frisco System

  • Final consolidation of rights over Accrington in July 2017

  • Renewed interest by Kennecott (Rio Tinto)

  • First ever use of modern geophysics led to shift in focus from Cactus Canyon to Accrington and Perseverance

Porphyry mineral systems and carbonate hosted mineralisation

==> picture [116 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

  • Where porphyry mineral systems have intruded into large carbonate sequences large orebodies can be deposited into the carbonates in the form of skarns and replacement deposits (e.g. Las Bambas, Tintaya, Ertsberg, Antamina)

  • Thick carbonate sequence at Accrington (1000-2000m) may host substantial base and precious metal orebodies

  • Skarns often occur proximal to or within porphyry copper deposits

  • Copper mineralisation best developed within the Upper and Lower Garnet skarns within several hundred meters of the Monzodiorite contact

  • Sampling along confirmed widespread copper including higher grades associated with a copper magnetite skarn

  • Total strike length of mineralised Initial upper and lower garnet skarns is in excess of 1000m

  • Combined thickness of mineralised upper and lower garnet zones is approximately 150m

Accrington - potential extensions at depth

==> picture [184 x 159] intentionally omitted <==

  • Known mineralisation coincides with a 10 and 15mV/V chargeability anomaly

  • Geophysics suggest a continuation of skarns to depth

  • Chargeability anomalies coincide with a magnetic anomaly possibly representing copper-magnetite skarns.

  • Carbonate sequence may be 1000-2000m thick

  • Grid sampling across Accrington identified large areas of gold (>0.1 g/t) and silver (>5 g/t) mineralisation

  • Selective rock chip sampling returned high grade mineralisation with significant precious metal credits (see table on right)

  • Limited assays for gold in historical drilling or assays at Imperial
