Observations Lack of capital for grassroots mineral exploration - First mover advantage Lack of new discoveries and decreasing mine reserves - Perpetual demand for new discoveries by miners Vast majority of public exploration companies is highly inefficient with limited available capital - Decreasing odds of success Large revaluations with IPOs of prospective exploration projects - Liquidity and visibility premium Incorporate private exploration companies → monetize after Opportunity exploration success 6

  13. O u r p r o c e s s Choose strong and stable mining Conduct fieldwork as soon as jurisdictions possible, focus on collecting hard data Opportunistic: no specific focus on Risk management: kill projects as a single natural resource as we are soon as possible commodity price agnostic Incentivize the leading geologists Hire world renowned field specific (“Rock Stars”) with a significant experts whenever needed. Upfront share position costs outweigh possible future misallocation of capital 13
