Highlights of the 2,000 tpd Expansion Feasibility Study 

· Robust project economics (base case at $22/oz silver):

Before-tax 5% net present value (“NPV”): $471 million

Before-tax internal rate of return (“IRR”): 57%

After-tax 5% NPV: $373 million

After-tax IRR: 48%

Payback period: 7 years post expansion

Initial life of mine (“LOM”) of 11 years 

· 394% increase in annual production: Increased throughput expected to drive annual silver (“Ag”) production to 7.9 million ounces (“oz”) by 2024

· 364% increase in revenue: Annual revenue expected to increase from $37M in 2021 to $172M by 2024

· Low quartile costs: LOM all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”)1 of $9.58/oz including sustaining capital expenditures

· Initial proven and probable Mineral Reserves Estimate of 8.59 million tonnes (“t”) grading 257 g/t Ag for 71Moz of Ag, positions Zgounder among the highest-grade Ag projects globally

· Low initial capital expenditures: $139.4 million, including $16.6 million in contingency cost

· Short expansion timeframe: First Ag pour planned in Q1-2024

· Further optimisation opportunities:

Exploration along strike and at depth

Potential to optimise the flow sheet during the front-end engineering design (“FEED”) and the mine plan as part of the underground expansion

· Enhanced ESG plan: Reduction in water consumption and carbon emissions intensity
