About the Okohongo Project and Deposit

The Okohongo Copper-Silver Deposit is known to cover an area that is 720 m (north-south) in strike length, 740 m wide (east-west), and continues at least 400 metres down-dip (east-dip). Situated within the Kaoko Belt and hosted by metasedimentary strata, the Cu-Ag deposit is considered analogous with the stratiform sediment-hosted Central African Copperbelt deposits of Zambia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Using a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu and assuming 10% geological loss, the Inferred Mineral Resources (“MRE”) are reported as approximately 7.7 Mt grading 1.55% Cu and 26.77 g/t Ag with a calculated copper equivalent (CuEq) of 1.82% Cu. The effective date of the Mineral Resource Estimate is August 11, 2021.

The MRE was prepared by Caracle Creek International Consulting MINRES (Pty) Ltd. (“CCIC MINRES”), South Africa, in accordance with current (2014) CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves.
The Okohongo Project shows excellent potential to expand the copper-silver resources along strike toward the north and south, where multiple copper-silver surface occurrences are known. Future exploration will follow up on these target areas.
