Although such statements are based upon the best judgments of management of the Company as of the date of this presentation, significant deviations in magnitude, timing and other factors may result from business risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, the Company’s dependence on third parties, general market and economic conditions, technical factors, the availability of outside capital, receipt of revenues and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. The Company does not warrant the accuracy, currency or completeness of the information with respect to forward-looking statements contained in this presentation, nor the future performance of the Company. Such risks and uncertainties are described in periodic filings made by Alphamin Resources Corp. with Canadian securities regulators and authorities.

This presentation contains only a brief overview of Alphamin Resources Corp. and its activities and operations. The contents of this presentation (including matters relating to the geology of Alphamin’s projects), may rely on various assumptions and subjective interpretations which is not possible to detail in this presentation and which may not have been subject to any independent verification.

This presentation does not constitute an advertisement for an offer or proposed offer of securities under U.S. law or any other law and is for general information purposes only. The mineral resource estimates referenced in this presentation are estimates only and no assurance can be given that any proven or probable reserves will be discovered or that any particular level of recovery of minerals will in fact be realized or that an identified reserve or resource will ever qualify as a commercially mineable (or viable) deposit which can be legally and economically exploited. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. In addition, the grade of mineralisation which may ultimately be mined may differ from that indicated by drilling results and such differences could be material. Production can be affected by such factors as permitting regulations and requirements, weather, environmental factors, unforeseen technical difficulties, unusual or unexpected geological formations and work interruptions. Discussions of our mineral resource estimates should not be interpreted as assurances of commercial viability
- r potential or of the profitability of any future operations.

TODAY’S AGENDA
A new tin producer Our journey to Bisie Geology Feasibility Study Our ambitious aims A bright future awaits
OUR JOURNEY TO BISIE
Refine technical studies to support a feasibility study Get comfort that project is technically feasible
Studies carried out - Mining UG feasible Metallurgy - gravity separation feasible Logistics - feasible Infrastructure - self sufficient
Drill out resource to support mine as a decent investment proposition
Significant capital spent on moving resources into indicated category
Initial aim was to produce 20ktpa Sn
Industry advisors suggested tempering our output Reduced plan to 10ktpa Sn
Identified as a potential high grade tin deposit
Invested in exploration program

GEOLOGY Mpama North
Current resource area at Mpama North High grade intersects shown, which are not representative of the deposit as a whole. Long section showing chute geometry, high grade intercepts and mineralisation open at depth § Mineralisation focused within a high grade chute which plunges at 40 degrees to the north § At Mpama North tin mineralisation has been delineated through drilling down to 550m below surface and down plunge to 720m § High grade mineralisation within two chutes which appear to coalesce at depth § The Main Vein zone generally occurs over thicknesses of between 2m & 22m with an average thickness of approximately 9m § High grade chute is open down plunge § Best intersections to date from deep drilling
- 16.01m @ 22.5% Sn from 387.45m
- 12.5m @ 10.93% Sn from 336.7m
- 13.6m @ 7.59% Sn from 534.4m
- Highest grade intersections at depth
BISIE PROJECT
GEOLOGY Mpama South
Diamond drill holes with better intercepts at Mpama South
- Limited drilling has been carried out at Mpama South
- Tin mineralisation defined over >500m
- First phase drilling results at Mpama South were similar to those at Mpama North
- Significant grades include:
- 32m @ 2.46% Sn from 192.2m
- 6.7m @ 2.34% Sn from 146m
- Mineralisation is hosted within the same chlorite schist which hosts high grade
mineralisation at Mpama North
- Mineralisation has a strong structural control similar to Mpama South
- Best intercepts were at depth
- Mineralisation potentially within a similar high grade plunging chute as that at Mpama North
- A second zone rich in silver lead and zinc was intersected above the tin zone at Mpama South
