Naonal Instrument NI 43 101 or JORC <br />
• This presentaon is not NI 43 101 or JORC compliant. The economic analysis contained in this presentaon is based Russian C1 to P2 reserves and resources. Investors should be parcularly cauous in relying on P1 and P2 resources. <br />
P1 and P2 resources are considered too geologically speculave to have mining and economic consideraons applied to them and to be categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that the reserves development, producon <br />
and economic forecasts on which the preliminary assessment is based will be realized.. The terms “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource” are Australian mining terms as defined in <br />
accordance with The Code for Reporng of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (the "JORC Code") as published by the Australian Joint Ore Reserves CommiUee and are compliant with Australian securies laws. These definions differ <br />
from the definions in Industry Guide 7 (“Industry Guide 7”) under the U.S. Securies Act. Under Industry Guide 7 standards, a “final” or “bankable” feasibility study is required to report reserves, a three year historical average price is <br />
used in any reserve or cash flow analysis to designate reserves and the primary environmental analysis or report must be filed with the appropriate governmental authority. In addion, the terms “mineral resource”, “measured <br />
mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource” are defined in and required to be disclosed by the JORC Code; however, these terms are not defined terms under Industry Guide 7 and are normally not <br />
permiUed to be used in reports filed with the United States Securies and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Investors are cauoned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into <br />
reserves. “Inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource <br />
will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under the Australian rules, esmates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre feasibility studies, except in rare cases. Investors are cauoned not to assume <br />
that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of “contained kilo tones” in a resource is permiUed disclosure under Australian regulaons; however, the SEC normally only <br />
permits issuers to report Mineralizaon that does not constute “reserves” by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. <br />
U.S. Securies Law Disclaimer <br />
• Our securies have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securies Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securies Act"), or the securies laws of any state of the United States and, subject to certain excepons, may <br />
not be offered or sold within the United States. Investors resident in the United States will be required to acknowledge that the securies are "restricted securies" within the meaning of Rule 144, and that if in the future an investor <br />
decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer any of the securies, it may do so only (a) to the Corporaon; (b) outside the United States in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulaon S under the Securies Act and in compliance <br />
with applicable Canadian and provincial laws and regulaons; (c) within the United States in accordance with Rule 144, if available, and in compliance with any applicable state securies laws of the United States; or (d) in another <br />
transacon that does not require registraon under the Securies Act or any applicable state securies laws of the United States. Accordingly, informaon contained in this Investor Presentaon may not be comparable to similar <br />
informaon made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporng and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securies laws and the rules and regulaons there under the Securies Act or any applicable state <br />
securies laws of the United States. <br />
