Forward-­‐Looking

This
presenta2on
contains
"forward-­‐looking
informa2on"
which
may
include,
but
is
not
limited
to,
statements
with
respect
to
the
future
financial
or
opera2ng performances
of
Elysium

(EYM),
its

and
their

of

and
regulatory
maNers. OQen,
but
not
always,
forward-­‐looking
informa2on
statements
can
be
iden2fied
by
the
use
of
words
such
as
"plans",
"expects",
"is
expected",
"budget'',
''scheduled", "es2mates",
"forecasts'',
''intends",
''an2cipates'',
or
"believes",
or
varia2ons
(including
nega2ve
varia2ons)
of
such
words
and
phrases,
or
state
that
certain
ac2ons,
80% events
or
results
"may'',
"could",
"would",
"might",
or
"will"
be
taken,
occur
or
be
achieved. 30%

Forward-­‐looking
statements
involve
both
known
and
unknown
risks,
uncertain2es
and
other
factors
which
may
cause
the
actual
results,
performance
or
achievements of
EYM
and/or
its
subsidiaries
to
be
materially
different
from
any
future
results,
performance
or
achievements
expressed
or
implied
by
the
forward-­‐looking
statements. Although
EYM
has
aNempted
to
iden2fy
important
factors
that
could
cause
actual
ac2ons,
events
or
results
to
differ
materially
from
those
described
in
forward-­‐looking statements,
there
may
be
other
factors
that
cause
actual
ac2ons,
events
or
results
to
differ
from
those
an2cipated,
es2mated
or
intended.
There
can
be
no
assurance that
forward-­‐looking
statements
will
prove
to
be
accurate,
as
actual
results
and
future
events
could
differ
materially
from
those
an2cipated
in
such
statements. Accordingly,
readers
should
not
place
undue
reliance
on
forward-­‐looking
statements.

**Explora9on

Targets**

References
to
Explora2on
Targets
or
Targets
in
this
document
are
in
accordance
with
guidelines
of
the
JORC
Code
(2012).
As
such
it
is
important
to
note
that
the reported
Targets
are
based
on
exis2ng
data,
historical
produc2on
and
geology
models.
Any
references
to
grade
and
quan2ty
are
conceptual
in
nature.
Explora2on carried
out
to
date
is
insufficient
to
be
able
to
es2mate
and
report
mineral
resources
in
accordance
with
the
JORC
Code
(2012).
It
is
uncertain
if
further
explora2on
will result
in
the
determina2on
of
a
Mineral
Resource.
