Exploration Review Confirms Significant Exploration Upside at Kayelekera

HIGHLIGHTS

Review undertaken of a vast exploration dataset

  • Including 1,780 drill holes, surface and airborne geophysics, and surface sampling.

  • Lotus has defined exploration targets for near-mine and brownfields exploration regions (Figure 2) - Potential further exploration upside on greenfield targets which will need to be drill tested to prove up.

  • High-grade, poorly tested unit, below the open pit remains open to the west and north (Figure 4) - Intercepts up to 9.9m @ 2,020ppm eU3O8 (KR0171 from 144.1m).

  • Four priority regional targets identified for exploration (Figure 3):

  • Mpata – Karoo sediments with intercepts up to 10m @ 690ppm eU3O8 (MP017 from 19m).

  • Livingstonia North – strong radiometric anomalies detected in area adjacent to the 6Mlb Livingstonia Resource.

  • Chilumba – strong radiometric anomalies north of Livingstonia North – never drill tested.

  • Nthalire South – radiometric anomalies coincident with Karoo sediments

  • 2020 exploration planning underway targeting both uranium and other commodities.

The Exploration Review indicates targets have potential metal endowments of 7 -14Mlb of U3O8 within an Exploration Target of 6 - 22Mt at a grade of 300 - 600ppm U3O8 . The potential quality and grade is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in an estimation of a mineral resource. Lotus Managing Director Simon Andrew said: “The Exploration Review further reinforces our view that the Kayelekera Uranium mine is a world class uranium asset. In addition to being fully permitted and having significant plant and infrastructure, there is also potential for a significantly larger resource”.

The Kayelekera 730km[2 ] tenement package has a 37.5mLb U3O8 resource (27.1Mt @ 630ppm U3O8) at the Kayelekera uranium mine and associated stockpiles ( announcement 26 March 2020 ).

Significant exploration upside is also present in regional tenements with favourable lithology and radiometric signatures, but where no drilling or sampling has yet been undertaken (e.g. Nthalire South and Chilumba).

Kayelekera Project Overview

The Kayelekera Uranium Project is located in northern Malawi, central Africa, 52km west (by road) of the major town of Karonga (Figure 2 below).

Lotus Resources holds the Kayelekera Mining Licence (ML 152) and five Exclusive Prospecting Licences (EPL’s 489, 418, 417, 225, and 502) for a total of 730km[2] that are coincident with Karoo sedimentary basins, sharing similar generic characteristics to that which hosts the Kayelekera deposit. These basins host several defined targets and are considered highly prospective for further Uranium discoveries.

Lotus has identified five key target regions based upon a review and analysis of previous field work including airborne and ground-based geophysics, mapping, drilling and trenching. These five key target regions consist of the Kayelekera, Mpata, Nthalire South, Chilumba, and Livingstonia North Projects ( Figure 2 and Figure 3).

Exploration Targets Summary

An Exploration Target for Lotus’ Malawian tenements is summarised in Table 1 below. The Exploration Target only focussed on regions which had sufficient drilling and sampling data (either within the project itself to lead to an informed target); or had adjacent drilling information next to the project (e.g. Livingstonia North).

Based upon a review of the significant exploration data from site (some 1,780 drill holes for 120,000m and 98,500 1m composite eU3O8 samples), 3D modelling of available data, and analysis of nearby deposits adjoining Lotus’ tenements; an Exploration Target of between 6 and 21 Mt at a grade of between 300 and 600ppm U3O8 has been derived from the near-mine and brownfields exploration regions. This indicates a potential metal endowment of between 7 and 14Mlb of U3O8 (refer to body of text for additional details). Note that the Exploration Target is conceptual in nature there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain of further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource.

The Nthalire South and Chilumba Prospects, which feature mapped Karoo sediments and strong airborne radiometric anomalies, were not included in the Exploration Target as they had no drilling or sampling data available.

The projects have a combined exploration data set that included 1,788 drill-holes for 118,159m with associated chemical and down-hole gamma eU3O8 analysis (26 of these holes being in ground previously dropped by Paladin). The bulk of the drilling is within the 6km trend of the mine corridor (1,582 drill holes for 88,939m), with the remaining 206 holes for 29,221m targeting regional exploration. Significant drill intercepts are summarised in Appendix 1.

Regional targeting was greatly aided by a 2008 radiometric survey over two broad regions - Kayelekera and Chilumba (Figure 3 below). This survey is guiding exploration with analysis of the radiometric signature (K, U, and Th bands) combined with mapping and interpretation of the sedimentary units allowing for target generation. Additionally, opportunity exists for exploration to be undertaken under areas under surficial cover. Uranium mineralisation is typically targeted in the arkose units of Karoo Member sediments; with higher-grade mineralisation at Kayelekera associated with arkose unites adjacent to fault zones.

Kayelekera Region

Later-stage drilling at Kayelekera (Figure 4) defined a high-grade unit that is open to the north and west. This unit includes significant grade x thickness (‘U3O8 ppm x m)’) intercepts up to 17,800 gm (29m @ 613ppm eU3O8 in KR0152 from 129m). Intercepts of up to 11m @ 2,000ppm eU3O8 (KR0171 from 144.1m) are also present (refer Appendix 1 for significant intercepts). This high-tenor unit is typically > 120m below surface and has only been sparsely drilled. 3D modelling of the unit indicates that it continues to the south-west and potentially to the north and will form the focus of future near-mine exploration.

The hills to the east of the mine-site are also considered prospective for uranium, rare-earth metals and rutile, associated with granitoids and late-stage pegmatite swarms. Results from exploration undertaken in this region are still being collated and will be announced once finalised.

Based upon the average grade endowment of the basal arkose unit, and the geometry of the open ground along trend of the currently defined mineralisation (Figure 5), an Exploration Target estimated (Table 1) has been estimated of between 1 to 5 Mt at a grade of between 400 to 1,200ppm eU3O8 for a potential endowment range of between 2.5 to 4Mlb of contained U3O8.

Chilumba and Livingstonia North Prospects

The Livingstonia and Chilumba prospects are south-east of Kayelekera between the town of Livingstonia and the western shore of Lake Malawi (Figure 2).

The Chilumba Prospect (Figure 6) is defined by a cluster of six airborne radiometric anomalies in the Chilumba area, with follow-up ground surveys confirming a 3km long anomaly associated with the contact between the Karoo sediments and the basement, none of the anomalies have been

==> picture [468 x 64] intentionally omitted <==

drill tested. No drilling has been undertaken over these anomalies; however, the region is considered prospective for uranium mineralisation.

The Livingstonia-North anomaly is directly along-trend of the historical Livingstonia uranium resource, with a JORC 2004 endowment of 6Mlb eU3O8 (8.3Mt @ 325ppm eU3O8 above a 150ppm U3O8 lower cut off - refer Resource Star announcement 22 June 2010). Drilling at the northern end of the deposit supports a continuation of mineralisation onto the Lotus tenements, with a potential 3km trend extent indicated (Figure 7). No drilling has yet been undertaken at Livingstonia North, and this region is considered highly prospective for additional mineralisation.

Based upon Livingstonia North being interpreted as a northerly continuation of the existing Livingstonia uranium deposit, the strongly evident airborne uranium anomaly present (refer Figure 7) and historical drilling at Livingstonia being open on the most northern line (e.g. 11.8m @ 517ppm eU3O8 in hole LBPE101- refer Resource Star announcement 28 January 2011) an Exploration Target

==> picture [468 x 64] intentionally omitted <==

estimated (Table 1) has been estimated of between 3 to 8Mt at a grade of between 300 to 600ppm eU3O8 for a potential endowment range of between 3 to 5Mlb of contained U3O8 .

As there is currently no drilling or sampling data over the Chilumba Prospects, an Exploration target has not yet been defined for this region.

Mpata Project

The Mpata Project consists of the three prospective regions, Mpata, Swebe and Mwapu. The Mpata Prospect represents the largest cluster of radiometric anomalies outside Kayelekera (Figure 8) with several high priority anomalies associated with arkose units identified over a 3km strike length of Karoo sediments. A total of 76 drill holes have been undertaken histroically within the prospect area for a total of 9,070m. The drilling has defined several small, narrow bodies of low to medium grade mineralisation with karoo sediments. A total of 23 of the holes encountered grades in excess of 250 ppm eU3O8. Significant intercepts include 10m at 690 ppm (MP017 from 19m) and 5m at 410ppm (MP031 from 23m). Additional summary intercepts are shown in Appendix 1.

Karroo sediments continue to the south of Mpata at the Swebe Prospect with 14 drill holes for 1,553m drilled. Drilling in this area resulted in generally lower tenor results than at the Mpata Prospect (Figure 8).

==> picture [468 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [468 x 64] intentionally omitted <==

The Mwapu Prospect (Figure 8) covers an outlier of Karoo sediments between the Maylekera and Mpata Prospects. This outlier contains mapped Karoo arkose and has an associated moderate airborne anomaly. No drilling has yet been undertaken on the prospect and follow-up reconnaissance work is required.

Mineralisation appears to be open along strike at Mpata, with approximately 600m of trend untested, and is open at depth. Deeper drilling would target potential high-grade mineralisation suitable for either in-situ-leach or underground style mining. Recent structural re-interpretations with regard to the genesis of uranium mineralisation and late-stage faulting, potentially acting as a focal region for higher-grade mineralised fluids, indicated that both prospect areas are appropriate for assessment in the coming field programs.

Based upon the existing drill data over the Mpata and Swebe Prospects (featuring 50 to 200m drill spacing), along with the intersected mineralisation (refer Appendix 2), a 3D exploration model was constructed (Figure 9). The model was based upon intercepts > 200ppm eU3O8 over > 1m downhole thickness, with grade statistics averaged over the modelled regions used as a guide. The Exploration Target (Table 1) has been estimated between 2 to 9Mt at a grade of between 200 to 400ppm eU3O8 for a potential endowment range of between 2 to 4Mlb of contained U3O8.

Nthalire South

The Nthalire South Prospect is approximately 28km south of the Kayelekera mine site and is hosted in similar Karoo stratigraphy. The area hosts a moderate airborne radiometric anomaly which is interpreted to be related to a combination of basal arkose units and late-stage structures (Figure 10). No drilling or sampling has yet been undertaken on the Prospect; however, the project is interpreted to have favourable stratigraphic and structural setting for uranium mineralisation.

Exploration Activities

Exploration activities planned to test the Exploration Targets will follow a stepwise process at all prospect regions. Initial activities will focus on additional mapping, trenching, surface sampling and surface radiometric surveys. This will be supported by the ongoing review and compilation of historical exploration data as well as additional analysis of the disequilibrium effect around highgrade mineralisation at Mpata. Based upon ground truthing and mapping; it is envisaged that drilling activities would be undertaken at Kayelekera to test the western continuation of the highgrade basal zone (RC and diamond); diamond core follow up drilling at Mpata to test for radioactive disequilibrium; and maiden RC/diamond drilling at Livingstonia North to test for continuation of the Livingstonia uranium deposit. Pending access and permitting, it is envisaged that these activities would commence in Q3 2020.

The ML152 has been previously explored by numerous

In 1983 The Central Electricity Generating Board
(“CEGB”) were granted two Reconnaissance Licences,
RL004 and RL005. In April 1984 RL004 was converted to
and Exclusive Prospecting Licence, EPL002, which was
renewed in April 1987 as EPL 002 R1, and again in 1990
for two years as EPL 002/90 R2, covering a reduced area.
RL 005 was renewed in both 1984 and 1985 before being
dropped due to poor results.
In 1983 regional gamma-ray spectrometry was carried
out and identified 12 anomalies for ground follow-up.
Surface investigations, including geological mapping
and scintillometer surveys, of the known mineralisation at
Kayelekera were carried out.
In 1984 further ground surveys were completed
delineating targets for more detailed investigation. A
limited drill program (510m) was undertaken at
Kayelekera to investigate mineralisation at depth, whilst
trenches were dug to study near surface occurrences.
In 1985 a total of 3,994m of drilling was completed

and better defined existing target areas for ground
follow-up and drilling in 1986.
 During 1986, a further 3,821m of drilling was completed
on Kayelekera, increasing the resource to 9,300t of U3O8.
Seven other targets were drilled (2,503m) although no
significant mineralisation was discovered.
 In 1987, 7,665m of drilling was carried out to infill the
existing drilling to 50m by 50m. A number of pits were
dug and some preliminary geotechnical holes drilled.
Scout drilling on other targets failed to intersect any
radiometrically anomalous strata but a two metre thick
coal seam was intersected 1km north of the Kayelekera
village at Nhkachira.
 In 1988 no drilling was completed on the uranium
deposit at Kayelekera but a total of 1,180m were drilled
on various scout targets. One hundred and seventeen
metres were drilled to evaluate limestone deposits in the
Mwesia basin, for lime that will be needed in the uranium
extraction process. In addition 289m were drilled to test
the coal seams previously identified. During the latter
part of 1988, the British Civil Uranium Procurement
Organisation (“BCUPO”) received competitive tenders
for the execution of a detailed feasibility study for the
Kayelekera project. Wright Engineers Limited (“Wright”)
of Vancouver, Canada was selected to produce the
feasibility study which commenced in March 1989 and
was completed by June 1990.
 In 1989, a further 2,017m of drilling was drilled into the
deposit and its margins for structural, hydrogeological,
geotechnical and metallurgical purposes. An
independent evaluation confirmed an in-situ resource of
>9,000t of contained U3O8. A further 1,805m of drilling
was completed to evaluate the Nhkachira coal deposit,
which was shown to comprise several thousand tonnes
of coal in a single 2m thick seam.
 Since 2002, PDN conducted extensive drilling programs
in 2004, 2005, 2008-2011. Mining at the project was
commenced in 2008.

high-grade metamorphic rocks and intrusions cut by
major NW-SE dextral shear zones and post-tectonic
granitoid intrusions dated at 1.86Ga (Lenoir et al., 1995).
These shear zones may well have been reactivated
during and after deposition of the Karoo sequence,
since many major brittle faults that offset the Karoo-
aged rocks have the same orientation.
 Mineralisation at Kayelekera is hosted in several arkose
units where they are adjacent to the Eastern Boundary
Fault zone. The mineralisation forms more or less tabular
bodies restricted to the arkoses, except adjacent to the
NS strand of the Eastern Boundary fault at the eastern
extremity of the pit. Here, mineralisation also occurs in
mudstones in the immediate vicinity of the fault.
 Secondary mineralisation tends to be concentrated in
vertical fractures and along the contacts between
mudstone and arkose and is restricted to the upper parts
of the orebody Primary reduced (i.e. carbon and pyrite-
bearing) arkose ore accounts for 40% of the total ore.
About 30% of the mineralisation is hosted in oxidised
arkose (i.e. lacking carbon and pyrite) and is called
oxidised ore. 10% of mineralisation is termed “Mixed
Arkose” and exhibits characteristics of both primary and
secondary arkose mineralisation types.
 Uranium in primary ore is present as coffinite, minor
uraninite and a U-Ti mineral, tentatively referred to as
brannerite. Modes of occurrence include disseminated
in matrix clay, included in detrital mica grains and
intimately intergrown with carbonaceous matter.
Individual grains are extremely fine, typically <10μm.
Coffinite and uraninite also show an association with a
TiO2 phase, possibly rutile after detrital ilmenite. It is
possible that uranium deposition was accompanied by
leaching of Fe from detrital ilmenite and precipitation of
a TiO2 polymorph.
