Forward-looking information is based on the reasonable assumptions, estimates, analysis and opinions of management of the Company made in light of their experience and their perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be relevant and reasonable in the circumstances at the date that such statements are made, but which may prove to be incorrect. The Company believes that the assumptions and expectations reflected in such forward-looking information are reasonable. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things: the Company's ability to carry on its future exploration, development and production activities, the timely receipt of required approvals, the price of gold, copper and base metals, the ability of the Company to operate in a safe, efficient and effective manner and the ability of the Company to obtain financing as and when required and on reasonable terms. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list is not exhaustive of all factors and assumptions which may have been used. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information.

No Liability/Summary Information
The Company has prepared the Presentation Materials based on information available to it at the time of preparation. No representation or warranty, express or implied, is made as to the fairness, accuracy or completeness of the information, opinions and conclusions contained in the Presentation Materials. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its related bodies corporate (as that term is defined in the Corporations Act 2001 (Commonwealth of Australia)) and the officers, directors, employees, advisers and agents of those entities do not accept any responsibility or liability including, without limitation, any liability arising from fault or negligence on the part of any person, for any loss arising from the use of the Presentation Materials or its contents or otherwise arising in connection with it. Post 1989, exploration results detailed in this presentation have previously been reported to the ASX or in the independent geologist report contained in the Prospectus lodged on 18 April 2019. References to metal endowments are current to January 2017. Endowment = current resource plus production. Coordinate system on maps is MGA94 Zone55 unless otherwise stated.
The results include historical pre-1989 exploration results. The exploration activity at the HRR JV was undertaken from 1985-1987 (pre-JORC) by Electrolytic Zinc Company Ltd. These Historical Estimates do not use a category of mineralisation defined in the JORC code. As per ASX requirements for reporting pre-1989 historical data, SKY notes that the results are not reported in accordance with the JORC Code 2012; a competent person has not done sufficient work to disclose the exploration results in accordance with the JORC Code 2012; it is possible that following further evaluation and/or exploration work that the confidence in the prior reported exploration results may be reduced when reported under the JORC Code 2012; that nothing has come to the attention of SKY that questions the accuracy or reliability of the former owners exploration results, but SKY has not independently validated the former owner's Exploration Results and therefore is not to be regarded as reporting, adopting or endorsing those results. The levels of gold reported, from past drilling activity, is a key factor in guiding SKY's exploration strategy in relation to these projects. The previous drilling activity, which produced these results, involved multiple diamond drillholes and check assaying, providing SKY confidence that the results are reliable, relevant and an accurate representation of the available data and studies undertaken by previous exploration activity. Drilling was based on follow-up of robust, coincident IP chargeability and zinc-lead-copper soil anomalism. Proposed verification work includes further drilling and resampling of historical drillcore which SKY expects to undertake in 2019 using existing funds. Relevant original exploration reports are referenced and can be found at http://skymetals.com.au/index.cfm/investors/reports-and-presentations/technical-reports/.
