  3. Cobalt Snapshot Rapidly Expanding Demand • Constrained Supply • Prices Rising Cobalt is an essential metal in electric car & phone batteries, and in other industrial and military applications  Significant supply deficit expected 1  Used in 3 of 4 key lithium-based electric car batteries  Supply is constrained - 94% produced as by-product of nickel & copper mines 2  Buyers seeking alternatives to “conflict cobalt” - 54% of mined cobalt comes from DRC 3 – Concerns about child labour and political instability (Apple, Tesla) 1.

  4. Castle Mine Property Castle Mine was one of the highest-grade silver-cobalt properties in the historic Cobalt Camp in Northern Ontario  Mines in the Greater Cobalt Camp (including Gowganda, Cobalt, Silver Centre) produced over 500 million oz of silver and over 30 million lbs of cobalt in the 1900s www.canadacobaltworks.com 4

  5. Castle Mine Property “In a very cost -effective manner we have prepared the first level for immediate drilling” Jacques Monette , Director CCW, Mine Consultant Press Release May 23, 2018  28 km 2 total claim zone NE of the town of Gowganda, Ontario  In middle of previously-producing Gowganda silver-cobalt camp  Close to all infrastructure  Includes all 3 former Castle Mine shafts #1, #2 and #3 and the adit (near #2 and #3)  First Nations agreements in place www.canadacobaltworks.com 5

  6. Castle – Highlights Most advanced in mine development in the Cobalt Camp  Only Company in Cobalt Camp with permitted access to underground workings  Level 1 of mine now modernized for safety, efficiency: Trackless system, new water and air pipelines, new ventilation system, and timber replacements ongoing; plans to dewater Levels 2-11  First company in Cobalt Camp drilling underground: Targeting cobalt-rich veins in first level of mine began in June 2018  Selected underground bulk and chip samples (1) from Level 1 showed various high- grades – as high as 5.2% cobalt, 5.3% nickel, 6,173 g/t silver and 10.1 g/t gold (in general, 0.5% cobalt is considered high-grade)  Drilling underway in a new discovery 1.5 km east of the mine ; drill results pending (1) See company news releases dated February 27, March 16, May 23, 27, 31,, and June 8, 2018, and, June 12, July 19 and December 1, 2017. Canada Cobalt cautions that samples are selective and not representative of mineralization underground at the Castle mine. www.canadacobaltworks.com 6

  7. Castle – Highlights First in Camp to produce cobalt sulphate for electric car batteries  Proprietary metallurgical process (Re-2OX) has been proven in lab tests to produce premium-grade cobalt sulphate – 22.6% cobalt sulphate hexahydrate – exceeds technical specifications of cathode producers in Asia (1)  Environmentally green Re-2OX is highly efficient/effective/scalable and bypasses expensive smelting process – no other company has this process  Pilot plant at Castle mine site produces gravity concentrates – One recent test showed grades of 9.25% cobalt, 5.65% nickel, 9,250 g/t silver and 49.9% arsenic  Gravity concentrate processed using Re-2OX process at SGS Lab – achieved recoveries of 99% cobalt, 81% nickel, 84% manganese – also removed 99% of arsenic , a long-time issue in this cobalt-rich district. The process was then used to produce the 22.6% cobalt sulphate  Lab work currently focused on producing a suite of nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) battery grade formulations using an additive approach where necessary (1) See company news releases dated May 31 and August 15, 2018.. www.canadacobaltworks.com 7

  8. Castle – Development Goal/Plans Development Goal: Resume Mining at Castle and Beaver Near-term Plans  Continued underground drilling to test for cobalt and other metals in various vein structures (data recorded by previous mine operators only includes silver grades)  Surface drilling program to test for gold/cobalt/silver/nickel/PGEs in broad potential new discovery area 1.5 km east of adit  Ongoing metallurgical testing using the proprietary Re-2OX process aimed at producing cobalt sulphate and a nickel-manganese-cobalt formulation to specifications for battery sector end-buyer evaluation  Follow-up lab testing to recover lithium, cobalt and other metals from used computer and phone batteries using the Re-2OX process at the SGS Laboratory in Lakefield, Ontario  Management has begun permitting work with the aim of constructing a state-of-the-art 600-t/d gravity flotation cyanidation mill ; plans to be income-producing www.canadacobaltworks.com 8

  9. Major Advantage/Potential CURRENT DRILLING & UNDERGROUND ACCESS  Castle has permits and is already accessing the mine through an adit and is drilling underground  This has allowed upgrades, fast-tracked drilling (and testing), and will allow targeted mining sooner  No other company in the Cobalt Camp has permitted underground access www.canadacobaltworks.com 9

  10. Castle – Recent News Results: Underground Drilling and Gravity Concentrate (1)  Initial results of underground drilling:  2.28% cobalt, 261 g/t silver and 1.65% nickel over 7.00 m in hole CA18-001  1.87% cobalt, 4,763 g/t silver, 1.29% nickel and 1.19 g/t gold over 2.54 m in CA18-002  3.16% cobalt and 10,741 g/t silver (345 oz/t silver) over 0.60 m in CA18-003  Cobalt grades are very high in a global context (0.5% cobalt normally considered to be high-grade in deposits in other areas of the world)  On-site proprietary Pilot Plant produced 8.25% cobalt concentrate from waste pile  Head grades of material from waste pile tested 0.390% cobalt and 1,905 g/t silver; this was material left behind outside the mine by previous operators (1) See company news releases dated October 24, and November 2, 2018. www.canadacobaltworks.com 10

  11. Major Advantage/Potential DISCOVERY POTENTIAL AT CASTLE  Past focus on silver and on a small area of the property leaves substantial discovery potential  Drilling will establish grades of cobalt and other metals in underground veins to further identify mining targets  Number high-potential targets identified far away from existing mine workings in IP geophysical survey in 2017 www.canadacobaltworks.com 11

  12. Cross Section Showing Underground Workings at Castle Mine  Longitudinal section through Castle No.3 workings  View looking North  Mining occurred on 11 different levels during the 1900s down to approximately 850 feet (259.1m) www.canadacobaltworks.com 12

  13. Two Prospective Properties in Addition to Castle Former Beaver and Violet Mines Located in historic Cobalt Mining Camp near the Castle Mine town of Cobalt, Ontario Violet Mine Beaver Mine www.canadacobaltworks.com 13

  14. Beaver Silver-Cobalt Property  20-acre patented mining claim 5 km southeast of Cobalt, Ontario within the Cobalt Mining Camp – includes surface and mineral rights  Includes former Beaver Mine which produced 7.1 million oz of silver and 139,472 lbs of cobalt from 1907 to 1940 – mine upgrades in 1970s  High-grade mineralization again confirmed in 2017 – selected hand-cobbed material at surface averaged 4.68% Cobalt, 3.09% Nickel, 46.9 g/t Silver, and 0.08 g/t Gold  20 kg hand-cobbed sample from waste rock in 2013 tested: 7.98% Cobalt, 3.98% Nickel, and 1,246 g/t Silver www.canadacobaltworks.com 14 Sources: Company news releases February 14, 2013 and October 16, 2015.
