Corporate Presentation

November 2021

ASX: MVL

DISCLAIMER

This presentation (Presentation) has been prepared by Marvel Gold Limited (Marvel). No party other than Marvel has authorised or caused the issue of this document, or takes responsibility for, or makes any statements, representations or undertakings in this Presentation. This Presentation does not constitute an offer, invitation or recommendation to subscribe for or purchase any securities and neither this Presentation nor anything contained in it shall form the basis of any contract or commitment.

This Presentation contains summary information about Marvel and its activities, which is current as at the date of this Presentation. The information in this Presentation is of a general nature and does not purport to be complete nor does it contain all the information which a prospective investor may require in evaluating a possible investment in Marvel that would be required in a prospectus or product disclosure statement prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). This Presentation should be read in conjunction with Marvel’s other disclosures and announcements lodged with the ASX, which are available at www.asx.com.au.

Tabakorole Mineral Resources Estimate

In relation to the Mineral Resource Estimate for Tabakorole that was announced on 5 October 2021, Marvel confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in that announcement and that all material assumptions underpinning the Tabakorole Mineral Resource Estimate in that announcement continue to apply and have not materially changed.

Exploration Results

Information in this Presentation that relates to exploration results at the Company’s gold projects in Mali references the applicable announcement. Marvel confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in those announcements.

This Presentation is not a prospectus, product disclosure statement or other offering document under Australian law (and will not be lodged with the Australian Securities and Investment Commission) or any other law.

This presentation includes certain “forward‐looking statements”. Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information are frequently characterised by words such as “plan,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “believe,” “anticipate”, “estimate” and other similar words, or statements that certain events or conditions “may”, “will” or “could” occur. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this presentation are forward‐looking statements or constitute forward-looking information. Although the Company believes the expectations expressed in such statements and information are based on reasonable assumptions, there can be no assurance that such information or statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include the market price of gold, exploitation and exploration successes, capital and operating costs, changes in project parameters as plans continue to be evaluated, continued availability of capital and financing and general economic, market or business conditions, as well as those factors disclosed in the Company’s filed documents. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on “forward looking information”. There can be no assurance that the resources at the Tabakorole Gold Project can be economically exploited.

Whilst Marvel is working hard to give effect to the spin-out of the Chilalo Graphite Project and initial public offering (IPO) of Evolution Energy Minerals Limited (Evolution) as soon as possible, for so long as the spin-out remains subject to regulatory approvals (including the Tanzanian Fair Competition Commission) and the success of the offer of Evolution shares, there can be no assurances that the spin-out and Evolution IPO will successfully complete, nor that the value currently anticipated to be derived by Marvel from the spin-out and Evolution IPO will be obtained.

This Presentation has been prepared in good faith, but no representation or warranty, express or implied, is made as to the fairness, accuracy, completeness, correctness, reliability or adequacy of any statements, estimates, opinions or other information, or to the reasonableness of any assumption or other statement, contained in the Presentation (any of which may change without notice). To the maximum extent permitted by law, Marvel and its professional advisers and their related bodies corporate, affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, partners, employees, advisers and agents and any other person involved in the preparation of the Presentation disclaim all liability and responsibility (including, without limitation, any liability arising from fault or negligence) for any direct or indirect loss or damage which may arise or be suffered through use of or reliance on anything contained in, or omitted from, this Presentation.

PROJECT LOCATION

A FOCUS ON SOUTHERN MALI

==> picture [496 x 396] intentionally omitted <==

EXCELLENT PROJECT ACCESS

  • Projects accessed via 170km sealed road from Bamako to Bougouni

  • Each project located ~60km from Bougouni on unsealed roads

  • Bougouni is a major regional centre with grid power and airstrip

  • All projects have demonstrated prospectivity as shown by historic artisanal workings

  • Significant landholding consolidated around Tabakorole 1Moz resource provides excellent platform for regional exploration

TABAKOROLE GEOLOGY

  • Large splay off the Bannifin Shear Zone (similar to the 7.5 Moz Morila mine)

  • Deposit hosted in volcaniclastic sediments and mafic rocks

  • Near-deposit soil geochemistry completed – highlights several compelling targets within the Tabakorole structural corridor

STRATEGIC CONSOLIDATION OF STRUCTURAL CORRIDOR

  • MVL has acquired a significant landholding surrounding the 1Moz Tabakorole resource

  • No major companies within 50km radius

  • Region is underexplored – no systematic exploration since the 1990’s

EXCELLENT METALLURGY

HIGH RECOVERIES FROM FRESH ROCK SAMPLES INDICATE SIMPLE PROCESSING[1]

  • Bottle roll testwork on 4 fresh ore composite samples confirm non-refractory metallurgical characteristics

  • Average gold recoveries range from an impressive 92.7% at 150 micron to 96.6% for 75 micron grind size

  • Low reagent consumption points to low-cost processing

  • Future test programs to focus on comminution work and optimization of grind size vs reagent concentration

  • De-risked metallurgy provides confidence to aggressively pursue resource expansion
