EXPLORATION WORKFLOW – PHASE 1 PROSPECT IDENTIFICATION

Initial exploration to evaluate the potential of Conserrat was conducted during Q1 2019 and comprised a staged work program of: Key Findings

| Confjrmation of high grade gold-silver mineralisation in surface veins (Veta Blanca) | Widespread soil anomalies, fjrst evidence

  • f blind vein trends where outcrop is absent

| All veins and anomalies associated with major geophysical lineaments, large single vein fjeld? Surface sampling of

  • utcropping veins,

structures Regional soil grid Regional Gradient Array IP Survey

In April 2019 a second phase of exploration commenced to define vein targets and host structures across the entire project area Key Findings

| Identifjed multiple new mineralised trends (Ro & Florencia), confjrming GAIP vein targets | Refjned GAIP targets, many priority chargeability-resistivity targets defjned in vertical sections | Confjrmed structural & geological setting, prioritised IP targets associated with basin-related faults Surface Trenching Pole – Dipole IP CSAMT
