Where we are now Next 6 – 12 months Beyond 2019

 3 key projects (Rincon, Pular, Incahuasi) in 9 mining leases (minas) of 20,840 ha  JORC2012 Lithium carbonate (LCE) Resources for Pular & Rincon projects totalling 239,000 tonnes – 63% Measured & Indicated  Grade up to 313mg/l Lithium

 LCE Production scoping Rincon  Blend modelling Pular, Incahuasi & Rincon  Resource drilling & analysis Incahuasi  Commence Production well construction

Key desired outcomes

• Confirm resource and product

for Rincon

• Resource statement for

Incahuasi

• Validate production process
• Secure funding partner to take

project to production

• Move to production -

evaporation pond, processing plant and roadway

• Secure pipeline / key

purchaser for resource

• Refine extraction process to

increase margin and quality of resource

• Realise value of project for

shareholders through increase in market capitalisation
