Part of the extensive Cape Cross-Uis tin pegmatite belt (northern tin belt)

Uis deposit is the most consistently mineralized pegmatite swarm in the belt

Pegmatite field is up to 50km wide in some areas, providing vast exploration upside potential

Primary mineral is cassiterite (SnO2), with secondary tantalum (Ta)and niobium (Nb) and lithium (Li)

Course-grained cassiterite crystals up to 50mm long allow for efficient gravity extraction using proven technology

Coarse grained Cassiterite

Coarse (>5 mm) crystals of cassiterite (SnO₂) have been observed throughout the pegmatites within the existing pits and in unmined surface extensions

Higher grade cassiterite mineralisation occurs within alteration zones known as greisens

During the geological mapping programme, greisen zones were delineated within the pegmatite bodies

Mapping results show that Sn-bearing greisens have an abundant distribution within the V1/V2 pegmatite bodies

Previous records indicate that some greisens may reach grades of up to 3% Sn

GEOLOGICAL MODEL

11

• Existing pits open-ended at depth and along strike.

• 3-D geological model created from detailed mapping and several hundred structural measurements utilizing the surface generated by satellite stereo pair.

• High level of confidence for the near surface (25m) extrapolation reducing with an increasing depth.

• Two primary targets identified extending from surface.

• Mapping and surface exposures suggests pegmatites increase in thickness with depth.

REGIONAL EXPLORATION

> 180 unexplored pegmatites were delineated within 5km of the Phase 1 Plant location

95% of these pegmatite bodies displayed visible tin mineralisation at surface

Multiple pegmatites contained artisanal working, implying significant coarse grained mineralisation

The morphology of the additional pegmatites closely resemble the bodies found in the existing mine area

W17 pegmatite was intersected at a depth of 14m during wellfield drilling operations

67 meters intersection of the W17 pegmatite displayed visible cassiterite grains over the entire intersection

The combined mine plan delivers 2.75 million tonnes (represents 3% of the historical resource) of pegmatite at an average waste stripping ratio of 1:1

At 0.5 Mtpa ROM the mine design provides a sufficient inventory to supply the Phase 1 processing plant with ore for more than 5 years

Mine design exploits outcropping pegmatites and excavations of the historical Uis Mine

Demonstrates the potential for fast production ramp-up

Mining method entails conventional open pit mining with excavator-truck combination

BENEFICIATION PROCESS

16

• The process flow design for the beneficiation plant is well-advanced

• The plant design is informed by the process flow of the historical Uis Mine, known to have been an efficient operation with multiple stages of beneficiation

• AfriTin have opted for Dense Medium Separation (DMS) modules as opposed to the historic jigging circuit

• DMS is regarded as capable of delivering superior separation efficiency

• DMS is one of the simpler gravity processes used for separating minerals of different Specific Gravities (SG)

• DMS combined with a fine gravity concentration circuit will form the backbone of the beneficiation plant
