Case for Arcadia Lithium Project

Arcadia Lithium Project is an attractive partner for industry / strategic and financial investors

  • Last major hard rock lithium resource in the world without contractual offtake commitments
  • Globally significant JORC Code compliant hard rock lithium mineral resource and largest in Africa
  • Zimbabwe is the world's 5th largest lithium producer and the country has a long and established mining industry that is supported by infrastructure, relevant skillsets and resources and an accommodative legislative framework
  • The following approvals are in place to commence development at Arcadia:
    • Environmental approvals – Environmental Management Agency
    • Licenced foreign investor – Zimbabwe Investment Authority
    • Relevant mining claims owned
    • Special Economic Zone application in progress
  • Significant further upside in the opportunity for a lithium chemical plant (Lithium carbonate and hydroxide plant).
    • Pre Feasibility Study already underway with leading global engineering firm.
    • This will be the first lithium chemical plant outside of Asia and Australia.
    • Geographically well placed to serve European, North American and Asian markets
    • Potentially increases investment returns by an order of magnitude as a result of the significant reduction in transport and logistics costs and multiplier effect of processing on pric e
  • Near term supply potential – on closing of funding, target is to have the mine in production in 12 months
  • Estimated supply of more than 15-20 years
  • Core team is already in place and have significant Zimbabwean mine building and operational experience

Lithium Demand has Outpaced Supply

Extracts from Goldman Sachs Report - Electric Vehicle Boom - 7 September 2017

The Lithium Market

Lithium Demand Factors Lithium Supply Factors

Demand driven by:

  • The electric car boom (China expected to set end date for ICE cars)
  • Falling battery prices resulting in unprecedented demand for lithiumion batteries
  • Emerging energy storage market
  • Traditional lithium demand markets i.e. electronics, medical, ceramics will remain supportive
  • Current market players investing in more processing capacity than they have secured supply for

Near term supply constrained by:

  • −Capital intensity to commercialise brine sources of lithium
  • −Significant lead time for brine sources of lithium to come to production i.e. slower to respond to market conditions

Result is a significant opportunity for PSC to secure for Arcadia Lithium Project:

  • •Strong offtake partners
  • •Funding
  • •Long term market position

Global Hard Rock Lithium Resources

Note: Hard Rock refers to all pegmatite hosted Li deposits only. Mineral Resource estimates for Projects other than Arcadia have been sourced from Company Public Domain sources. These estimates have been prepared under differing estimation methodologies and cut offs and therefore maybe not be directly comparable. Readers should therefore treat and rely on this information accordingly

Dealing with Country Risk – Perception and Reality

PERCEPTIONS

Country / Civil Society Risk

  • Zimbabwe is significantly more organised, developed from an infrastructure perspective and peaceful than most African countries endowed with significant mineral natural resources
  • Zimbabwe has been through previous economic crises which have not resulted in widespread civil unrest

Regulatory Risk

  • Zimbabwe is looking to promote and encourage investment – particularly in capital intensive mining ventures
  • PSC is compliant with all local Zimbabwe laws and regulations including:
    • •Zimbabwe Investment Authority Licence which includes Indigenisation approval
    • • Various mining and environmental approvals to commence mining at Arcadia Lithium Project

Macroeconomic / Operating Environment

  • Government of Zimbabwe is in a fiscal challenging position which is increasing local macroeconomic instability
  • Priority given to export orientated businesses such as Arcadia so significant incentives are being offered .
  • Various mining houses of scale continue to operate in Zimbabwe over a range of commodities

REALITIES

  • Arcadia Lithium Mine will be a significant foreign currency earner for Zimbabwe which is extremely important to the country and is actively engaging with Central Bank on various requirements for project
  • Various members of the Management Team have been through previous economic crises in Zimbabwe and have financial, legal and managerial experience to deal with economic challenges in the Zimbabwean context
  • The Arcadia Lithium Project can survive as an "island" if required:
    • Power can be generated off grid and the project remains financially profitable
    • Markets based on international offtake agreements thus not affected by local economic fundamentals thus value created underpinned by an international currency i.e the USD
    • The project will be a significant foreign currency earner and can thus sustain its operations in isolation to the wider economy
  • Zimbabwe's current fiscal and monetary policy approach is not sustainable over the long term and the Country needs to increase materially export earnings – exactly what Arcadia Project seeks to achieve
  • Prospect Resources has partnered locals as shareholders in the Arcadia Lithium Mine Project
