Growth Strategy GREENFIELDS EXPLORATION = MAJOR VALUE GENERATOR • Reservoir Minerals, 2012 Mcap C$24M to C$365M, due to Cukaru Peki Greenfields Discovery in Serbia & takeover by Nevsun in 2016. In 2018 Zijin bought Nevsun for USD1.4Bn • Sol Gold, Mcap of £29M to MCap £665M, due to its Cascabel Cu-Au porphyry Greenfields discovery in

-
Global Mineral Exploration spend has declined by nearly 70% since 2012
-
Majors despite their cash positions have all but stopped their exploration programs
-
Exploration refocussed on brownfields settings, delivering only small incremental resource increases
-
Greenfields exploration is the main generator of Tier 1 discoveries and has been almost reduced to zero since 2012
-
Copper supply in deficit from 2021 onwards
-
Junior Companies now account for 70% of global discoveries
-
Juniors generate significant multiples on investments through Tier 1 discoveries from greenfield projects:
- Ecuador
- Greenfields Cu-Au discovery in Turkey





NUMBER OF SIGNIFICANT DISCOVERIES BY COMPANY TYPE


Growth Strategy GREEN FIELDS EXPLORATION IN EASTERN EUROPEAN TETHYAN BELT, PERFECT TIMING discovery costs for gold and for copper - compares very favourably
- The Tethyan Belt in Eastern Europe has some of the lowest against global discovery costs
- Western Tethyan, in particular Eastern Europe is considered one of the most metal endowed belts in the world
- Exploration expenditure for metals has been at an all time low
- Funding is only just coming back into the industry
- Peak discoveries occur several years prior to peak spend, due to the huge competitive advantage early movers have in terms of securing quality ground and skills
- Raiden is positioning itself for belt-scale strategic acquisitions in the near term
- The time is now

Majdanpek Project RIO TINTO JV

- Covers an area of 76 km2 adjacent to the high grade Coka Marin deposit; the operating Majdanpek porphyry deposit; +2MOz Dundee discovery & is located on the Bor-Majdanpek structural trend In Q3 2018 Rio Tinto completed a helicopter permit - numerous targets defined VTEM is effective for detecting massive sulphide lenses No risk - significant exposure to a Rio Tinto driven
- electromagnetic survey (VTEM) covering the entire
- and connected disseminated sulphide mineralisation at depths (effective for porphyry & epithermal exploration)
- Well developed infrastructure within 10 km of Majdanpek
- Drilling by Rio Tinto currently underway
- Raiden has a free-carried interest in the project
- program targeting porphyry and epithermal deposits

Donje Nevlje Project (100% Raiden)
OVERVIEW
- Significant potential for porphyry & preserved epithermal mineralisation
- Raiden completed 23 line Km of IP during March
- Two high priority targets with strong IP responses identified potentially due to sulphide mineralisation
- of silicification related to epithermal mineralisation
- Drilling by the Company currently underway

Stara Planina (Path to 100% ownership)
OVERVIEW
- Joint Venture between Raiden and local company
- Option for Raiden to buy 100% for €0.3M
- Two high-priority targets, Aldinac & Gradiste

-
1.2 km geochemical anomaly and large chargeability IP anomaly, Only 200m of southern portion tested by initial drilling OVERVIEW - GRADISTE
-
All three drill holes completed returned anomalous Cu-Au, confirming the presence and orientation of mineralisation1
-
Historic sampling reported grades between 2-12.5 g/t Au
-
Cu-Mo-Au soil anomaly that extends over a 3km x 1km area
-
IP survey defined a large chargeability anomaly, 900m in strike length and open to the North
-
Outcropping mineralisation in proximity of the IP anomaly
-
Initial drilling testing the northern limits of the IP anomaly intercepted anomalous Cu-Au mineralisation in two drill holes

-
1 application approved (5.8 km2


Growth Strategy BULGARIA, HAS THE LARGEST LANDMASS OF CU-AU PROSPECTIVE GROUND IN EASTERN EUROPE
- Bulgaria hosts over 600Km of strike extent of the very prospective Cretaceous porphyry copper belt
- Large Mines (Bor, Majdanpek, Asarel, Chelopech) and recent Tier 1 discoveries are all hosted in the Cretaceous units of the Western Tethyan Belt (e.g. Cukaru Peki, Timok, Hot Madden)
- Bulgaria also contains extensive segments of the Paleocene-Miocene Volcanic belt. This belt hosts a significant number or large gold and base metals deposits and recent discoveries
- Examples include: Ata Tepe, Sasa, Raska, Kiseljak, Skouries


Growth Strategy BULGARIA, HAS THE LARGEST LANDMASS OF CU-AU PROSPECTIVE GROUND IN EASTERN EUROPE AND LARGE AREAS OF OPEN GROUND region – most junior explorers are in slowdown mode
- Extensive areas of prospective geology and mineral occurrences
- Few permits and applications
- Raiden has completed extensive due diligence site visits
- Raiden is in discussion regarding earn in deals/tender contests over extensive ground holding with prospective mineralisation & defined targets
- Numerous major developers have shown interest in the
- Unique opportunity to acquire entire tier one belts in stable and mining friendly jurisdictions
