PROJECT DIFFERENTIATORS

Pedra Branca PGM Project is open-pit

  • Industry currently dominated by

relatively high cost underground

  • perations in South Africa, Zimbabwe,

and Russia Supportive Investment Climate

  • Many peers exposed to geo-political risk

and labour concerns Production of a chrome concentrate first significantly reduces required processing capacity and cost of floatation circuit Contract mining reduces fleet capex, and existing infrastructure including grid power and water in place Beaufort Securities research note dated May 2017 provides CAPEX guidance at US$30 million for 30,000 ounces per annum and the Competent Persons Report prepared by GE21 indicated all-in OPEX costs of circa US$360 per an ounce (includes mining and milling)

Pre-scoping estimates are that Pedra Branca is likely to be producing at US$600- US$650 per Pt ox.

INFORMED MARKET VIEW

Jangada Mines PLC – Investor Presentation – June 2017

“Lower mine supply and strong investment demand will keep the market in significant deficit in 2016”

  • Johnson Matthey, Q4 2016

“Global supply was once again constrained, while overall demand for the metal remained constant”

  • World Platinum Investment

Council (‘WPIC’), Q4 2016

PLATINUM IS ONE OF THE WORLD’S RAREST METALS WITH UNIQUE PHYSICAL & CATALYTIC PROPERTIES MAKING IT HIGHLY VALUED ACROSS A NUMBER OF DIVERSE DEMAND SEGMENTS

“A supply cliff is approaching so we see substantial deficits in the years ahead, and much higher platinum-group prices as a result. ”

  • John Biccard, Investec

“We’re positive on the platinum group metals, and we have been for some time. ”

  • unces; 2016: 4.19 million ounces; 2017 est: >4

MULTIPLE POLYMETALLIC POTENTIAL

Rich multi-element ore zone at Pedra Branca demonstrates the potential to produce platinum, palladium, rhodium, nickel, copper, gold and chrome

Jangada Mines PLC – Investor Presentation – June 2017

HISTORIC DATA INDICATES SIGNIFICANT POTENTIAL FOR BOTH PRECIOUS AND BASE METALS ON THE JANGADA LICENCE AREAS

Palladium Pedra Branca has a platinum palladium ratio of ±1:1,7 Rhodium Past mineralogical studies have shown that the ore zone contains potentially consistent rhodium mineralisation Nickel Anglo American Platinum estimated through a SAMREC compliant report that Pedra Branca contains 125 Mlbs of nickel Copper Anglo American Platinum estimated through a SAMREC compliant report that Pedra Branca contains 25 Mlbs of copper Chrome Studies by Anglo American Platinum and Rio Tinto confirmed the significant chrome mineralisation throughout the ore zone and estimated a chrome resource of between 10% and 28% - targeting chrome resource of between 1.2 Mt and 3.5 Mt

slide-20
SLIDE 20

ADDITIONAL METAL CREDITS

  • Each additional metal can be simultaneously mined and processed at

little additional cost - all-in opex not expected to exceed US$12.5 per tonne

  • At today’s prices, final in-situ basket value estimated to be between

US$150-US$160 per tonne

  • Pricing fundamentals are positive:
  • Rhodium has seen an increase from a 12-month low of US$620 to a recent

high of +US$1,000

  • Chrome prices improved from US$79 per tonne in 2016 to US$390 per tonne

in 2017

  • Palladium has been one of the best performing commodities for 12 months,

gaining more than 50% and expected to eclipse platinum price as it continues to move into strong deficit in 2017

  • Nickel and copper prices being driven by advent of electric vehicles and

alternative power markets
