COMPETENT PERSON STATEMENTS

Elizabeth de Klerk M.Sc., Pr.Sci.Nat., SAIMM., Micon’s Director, Senior Geologist and Competent Person visited the South Harz Potash project from 12[th] to 16[th] February 2018 and 6[th] to 8[th] March 2018. During the initial site visit, the historical drilling area and laboratory facilities at K-Utec Salt Technologies Ltd in Sondershausen were visited. The original drill hole logs, reports, maps and cross-sections held in the Bodenverwertungs and verwaltungs GmbH (BVVG) archives in Berlin were also inspected. In addition, Mrs. de Klerk interviewed the Ercosplan team at their offices in Erfurt to understand how the data were used to compile an Excel database and generate an initial Exploration Target for Mühlhausen-Nohra. The second site visit involved more time spent at K-Utec inspecting additional historical records for Mühlhausen-Nohra held in the archives at the offices of K-Utec Salt Technologies Ltd in Sondershausen.

POTASH OVERVIEW

==> picture [295 x 66] intentionally omitted <==

Potash is a key source of Potassium: One of the three primary macronutrients

Potassium (K)

Potassium, Nitrogen and Phosphate are necessary for plant growth and cannot be substituted

  • Improves plant’s durability and resistance to drought, disease, weeds, parasites and cold weather

  • Potassium deficient soil is common in many countries

  • Phosphate (P)

  • • Plays a key role in adequate root development and photosynthesis process

  • Helps plants resist drought

Nitrogen (N)

  • Promotes protein formation

  • Determines plant’s growth, vigour, colour and yield

ONE SOLUTION FOR TWO SIGNIFICANT GLOBAL ISSUES

POPULATION GROWTH

The world’s population is set to increase to 9 billion by 2050, massively increasing food demand

Potash has the capabilities to service the rapidly growing need for quality crops Increasing living Majority of population standards driving growth to come from demand for developing nations

Increasing living standards driving demand for nutrient-rich crops

LAND AVAILABILITY

Arable land per person continues to dramatically decrease as food demand increases

Arable land per person will only by 1,800m[2 ] by 2050.* Potash will be the key Developing markets to get more crops from are yet to fully utilise less land the potential of potash

Davenport owns three perpetual mining licenses and two exploration licenses covering 659 km[2 ] in the South Harz potash basin in central Germany.

South Harz has a long history of potash production with 181.7 Mt potash mined since the 1890’s. All of Davenport’s licence areas surround former potash mines. Prior to reunification, it was the intention of the former state mining company to mine these areas but it was never followed through.

Many of the areas were drilled to a high standard in the 1960’s to 1980’s by the former East German state. There is significant infrastructure in the area, including water, gas and rail.

Mülhausen – Keula – Küllstedt

  • 2.7 Bt resource containing 290 Mt K2O also containing sulphate potash minerals.

  • 577 Mt resource containing high-grade thick Sylvinite intersections.

  • Potential for a large, long-life, conventional .

  • underground potash mine

  • Medium-sized, long life, conventional underground potash mine potential.

Nohra-Elende

Ohmgebirge

  • 1.7 Bt resource containing thick Carnallitite intersections

  • 325 Mt resource at relatively shallow depth.

  • Potential for large, long life mine. Gräfentonna

  • Potential for potash operation with lower capex.

  • May generate nearer-term production and cash flow.

  • Exploration target of 2.7-3.4 billion tonnes to 25% K O 2

EXCELLENT SCOPING STUDIES POINT TO OHMGEBIRGE AS THE STARTER PROJECT

==> picture [386 x 115] intentionally omitted <==

Davenport has completed preliminary scoping studies for the Mulhausen-Keula Nohra-Elende and Ohmgebirge licence areas with potash consultancy K-Utec.

Studies concluded proposed development of all areas was technically viable and justify Davenport committing to progress the projects

A scoping study for Nohra-Elende was completed in January 2020.

The scoping studies provide important economic data for use in further studies and in negotiations with potential project partners.

A FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR OHMGEBIRGE WILL COMMENCE SHORTLY TO CONFIRM POTENTIAL FOR RAPID START-UP

SCOPING STUDY SUPPORTS POTENTIAL FOR LOW-COST, LONG-LIFE POTASH PROJECTS
