Except for historical informa?on, this presenta?on may contain certain “forward-looking” statements and informa?on rela?ng to Berkwood that are based on the beliefs of Berkwood management, as well as assump?ons made by and informa?on currently available to Berkwood
limita?ons, explora?on and development risks, expenditure and financing requirements, ?tle maLers, opera?ng hazards, metal prices, poli?cal and economic factors, compe??ve factors, general economic condi?ons, rela?onships with vendors and strategic partners, governmental regula?on and supervision, seasonality, technological change, industry prac?ces, and one-?me events. Should any one or more risks or uncertain?es materialize or change, or should any underlying assump?ons prove incorrect, actual results and forward-looking statements may vary materially from those described herein. Berkwood does not assume the obliga?on to update any forward-looking statement. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the following: general economic condi?ons; changes in financial markets; the impact of exchange rates; poli?cal condi?ons and developments in countries in which the Company operates; changes in the supply, demand and pricing of the metal commodi?es which the Company mines or hopes to find and successfully mine; changes in regulatory requirements impac?ng the Company’s opera?ons; the ability to properly and efficiently staff the Company’s opera?ons; the sufficiency of current working capital and the es?mated cost and availability of funding for the con?nued explora?on and development of the Company’s explora?on proper?es. This list is not exhaus?ve and these and other factors should be considered carefully, and readers should not place undue reliance on the Company’s forward-looking statements. As a result of the foregoing and other factors, no assurance can be given as to any such future results, levels of ac?vity or achievements and neither the Company nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of these forward-looking statements. The Mason Graphite NI 43-101 mineral resource es?mate and other informa?on was sourced from the Mason Graphite news releases. The Qualified Person did not verify the informa?on contained within the Mason Graphite news release and the mineraliza?on on the Mason Graphite property is not necessarily indica?ve of the mineraliza?on on the Company’s property.

Mason Graphite’s advanced Lac Guéret Project has at least 75 million tonnes of high grade large flake graphite with robust economics showing a $160 million cost to build the mine, a 2.5 year payback and a minimum of 24 years of mine life. Berkwood’s Lac Guéret directly borders Mason Graphite’s property to the east and south and shares similar prospec?ve geology including along strike stra?graphic units, structure and geophysical anomalies. Sept 6th, 2017 Berkwood announced it increased its land package by 5 Pmes due to intersec?ng graphite in all 13 of the first holes drilled! One of the largest land holders in the area now.

NEWS RELEASE NOV 28th, 2017 Berkwood reports high grade Graphite assays with large true thickness intersecPons up to 40.3 m on Zone 1 at Lac Gueret South Graphite Project Posted on November 28, 2017
Berkwood Resources Ltd. is pleased to announce the assay results from the drill program on the Zone 1 geophysical prospect at the Company’s 100% owned Lac Gueret South Project. Thirteen holes were drilled in the first Phase drill program with every hole intersec?ng visible Graphite. Sec?ons of the drill core were sent for assay and we are pleased to confirm High grade Graphite with average grades in the range of 14.39 to 25.52% Cgr and true thicknesses ranging 22.1 to 40.3 m.
Mason, states “The analyses show that the thick unit on SecXon 3100E as well as shorter intervals showed a similar range of grades that occurs at Mason Graphite’s Lac Gueret deposit nearby.”

Delbreuil Lithium Project
The acquired claims have similar geology to
immediate area: the known occurrences on the Project property and on the other known occurrences comprise pegma?tes that host spodumene. The Project claims were previously explored for base metals: among the historic data is an assay on a sample recovered from pegma?te that returned anomalous lithium (1,290 ppm), tantalum (126 ppm) and rare earth elements. The Property also includes the Delbreuil base metal showing with historic assays on drill core of up to 3.4% Zn, 0.27% Ni, 0.38% Cu, 4.1 g/t Ag and 0.06% Co.
