TABAKOROLE GOLD PROJECT
Exploration Drilling
Following the conclusion of the RC drilling program completed in March, the Company drilled four diamond holes and one diamond tail (totalling 950m) in the south-east of the Tabakorole deposit. These holes – 21TBKRCDD001, 21TBKDD003, 21TBKDD004 and 21TBKDD005 – shown in Figure 1, are expected to add around 150m of strike extension to the existing 910koz Mineral Resource[5] .

During the Quarter, the Company commenced a 3,400m diamond drilling program targeting resource growth
in the central and north-west zones of the Tabakorole deposit, which has now been completed subsequent to
the end of the Quarter. Drill results have been received for 1,128m of this program, with the best intercept
being 13m at 2.0 g/t gold in hole 21TBKDD010[7] , drilled down-dip of hole 21TBKRC006 which intersected 22m at 1.8 g/t gold[8] (Figure 2).

The current 3,400m diamond drilling program is infilling mineralisation previously drilled in the central zone and adding definition to the north-west zone, which included 16m at 2.0g/t gold from 75m and 6m at 5.8g/t gold from 61m .[9] This drilling, combined with the previous 5,400m RC and 950m diamond programs, will feed into an upgraded JORC Resource expected in late September 2021.

The Company recently completed a reconnaissance aircore drilling program totalling 5,148m targeting Tabakorole extensions and three potential regional targets based off historical geochemistry and ground magnetics. Gold mineralisation was identified approximately 3km to the south-east of the Tabakorole deposit with 4m at 1.3g/t from 8m and 4m at 2.7g/t from 20m and ending in mineralisation (within hole 21TBKAC0096)[10] .
The discovery of additional gold mineralisation approximately 3 kilometres to the south-east of Tabakorole demonstrates that gold mineralisation exists in at least two places on the Tabakorole licence area, outside of the existing resource.
Increased landholding at Tabakorole
The Company completed a series of strategic tenement acquisitions that have grown its landholding at Tabakorole to 830km[2] , an increase of 530km[2] . The Company’s strategy is to develop Tabakorole into a standalone mining operation by consolidating a significant landholding and undertaking systematic exploration to make additional gold discoveries that will maximise the chances of achieving this strategy. The
9 ASX announcement 23 March 2021
10 ASX announcement 8 July 2021
PAGE 3 OF 11
consolidation of such a land position around the already significant Tabakorole deposit is central to this strategy.
Figure 3 shows the location and ownership status of all permits comprising the Tabakorole Project (note licences contiguous to the Tabakorole permit now form part of the JV with UK-listed Altus Strategies plc).

Multi-element soil geochemistry and ground magnetics at Tabakorole
----- End of picture text -----
The Company collected 4,267 soil samples and conducted 5,300 line kilometres of high resolution ground
magnetics as part of an ongoing regional exploration program at Tabakorole. All soil samples were subjected to a fire assay for gold and an ultra-low detection 48-element analysis to establish the pathfinder element anomalism in the broader Tabakorole structural corridor.
The soil sampling results reinforce the prospectivity at Tabakorole and have delineated numerous targets with
strong coincident multi-element anomalism, including several targets with Tabakorole “lookalike” signatures.
PAGE 4 OF 11
The high-resolution ground magnetics provides the structural data to deliver robust targets and increased confidence in making new discoveries.
Figure 4 below shows the geochemical grid for gold as well as Tabakorole’s signature pathfinder elements, arsenic, tungsten and tellurium.

Figure 6 shows the ground magnetics which include the recently acquired Npanyala licence. The data gives definition within the Tabakorole structural corridor and allows for a structural geological interpretation as well as bedrock geological interpretation when combined with the multi-element soil geochemistry. Within the data, five regional trends are apparent:
-
Near Tabakorole targets – exist within close proximity to the Tabakorole resource and exhibit a similar signature.
-
Groot Trend – located within the same structural trend as Tabakorole and occupy rocks with a prominent magnetic signature that are highly anomalous in gold, tungsten and tellurium.
-
Asgard Trend – situated on the southern boundary of the Tabakorole structural corridor and defines a prominent magnetic and geochemical break that runs to the north-west into the Sirakourou permit. The targets are highly anomalous in all of the pathfinder elements (As, W, Te) and previous drilling at the T1 target within this trend encountered 14m at 9.8g/t[13] .
-
Astro Trend – a continuation of the Asgard trend, however the main anomaly appears to represent an intrusive body which is particularly anomalous in tungsten and tellurium, with elevated gold. Mineralisation has been documented in the adjacent permit to the north.
-
Wakanda Trend – sits on the northern margin of a very large granite batholith and targets are particularly anomalous in arsenic, with support from tungsten and tellurium.

SPIN-OUT OF THE CHILALO GRAPHITE PROJECT
The proposed Spin-out and IPO of Marvel’s wholly-owned subsidiary Evolution is at an advanced stage, pending final in-country regulatory approval of the Tanzanian Fair Competition Commission ( FCC ).
A Share Exchange Agreement ( SEA ) has been executed under which the Company agrees to sell the Chilalo Project to Evolution in exchange for $10 million of Evolution shares (representing approximately 31% of Evolution on a post-ASX listing, undiluted basis) and cash of $2 million, subject to satisfaction of the preconditions to the Spin-out and based on the currently targeted Spin-out parameters.
The Spin-out of Chilalo was approved by Marvel shareholders at a general meeting held in June 2021, and while well-advanced, it remains subject to a number of conditions, including:
Final approval of the Marvel board to proceed with the Spin-out.
While the Marvel board has committed to progress the Spin-out and ASX listing of Evolution, and Marvel shareholders approved the Spin-out at a general meeting held in June 2021, under the terms of the SEA, the Marvel board will take a final decision to proceed with the Spin-out following FCC approval.
Receipt of FCC approval.
The FCC is a government institution responsible for promoting and protecting effective competition in trade and commerce and protecting consumers from unfair and misleading market conduct and ensuring that a change of ownership of a Tanzanian entity has no adverse impact on competition and
market power. As the proposed IPO has no impact on competition and market power, the Company does not anticipate any issue in obtaining the consent of the FCC. It is expected that Evolution will lodge a prospectus with ASIC promptly following the receipt of FCC approval.
Successful Evolution capital raising of $22 million (gross proceeds). Approval from ASX for the listing of Evolution on ASX.
If Tanzania FCC approval is secured in mid-August, it is expected Evolution will lodge a prospectus promptly thereafter. Subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, commencement of trading of Evolution shares on ASX would be anticipated by early October 2021.
Whilst Marvel and Evolution are working hard to give effect to the Spin-out as soon as possible, for so long as the Spin-out remains subject to regulatory approvals (including the FCC) and the success of the offer of Evolution shares, there can be no assurances that the Spin-out will successfully complete, nor that the value currently anticipated to be derived by Marvel from the Spin-out will be obtained.
ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE
Marvel’s board recognises the increasing trend involving environmental, social and governance ( ESG ) investing – investing which prioritizes environmental, social, and governance factors or outcomes – and the significant expansion in ESG investing across the globe. In response to the shift occurring in investment decisions, whereby ESG criteria are being increasingly applied in investors’ decisions, the Company is of the firm view that it is in Marvel’s interests to transition towards formally incorporating ESG considerations into its activities in order to more closely align itself with ESG investors.
A key factor in the integration of ESG factors into the Company’s business activity and decision making is the identification of benchmarks that are material to Marvel’s business and setting performance targets against these benchmarks. The Company is investigating options available to have its ESG performance independently assessed and is reviewing frameworks to assess and disclose its ESG metrics and performance.
PAGE 8 OF 11
In the coming quarter, the Company also proposes to engage an ESG consultant to advise on practical and relevant initiatives that can be undertaken as part of this transition and commence periodic reporting on ESG related matters.
CORPORATE
Cash
As at 30 June 2021, the Company had cash of $1.49 million.
Payments to related parties
During the Quarter, the Company made payments to related parties of $127,000, all of which comprised payments of executive director salaries and non-executive director retainers.

-
Yes – the Company is currently completing a diamond drilling program at its Tabakorole gold project in Mali. Cash costs are therefore likely to be comparable to the current quarter in the following quarter.
-
Has the entity taken any steps, or does it propose to take any steps, to raise further cash to fund its operations and, if so, what are those steps and how likely does it believe that they will be successful?
Yes – as announced on 21 July 2021, the Company is progressing the spin out of its Chilalo Graphite Project in Tanzania, which if completed as proposed, the Company expects to receive $2 million in cash.
- Does the entity expect to be able to continue its operations and to meet its business objectives and, if so, on what basis?
Yes – refer to 8.8(2) above.
