Forward-LookingInformation

2

This presentation is for informational purposes & does not constitute an offer or a solicitation of an offer to purchase securities. This presentation contains "forward-looking information" within themeaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, statements related to activities, events or developments that Crystal Peak MineralsInc. (“CPM” or the “Company”) expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including, without limitation; statements related to the economic analysis of the Project; the Feasibility Study;mineral resource estimate; the permitting process; environmental assessments; business strategy; objectives & goals; & exploration of the Sevier Playa Project. Forward-looking information is oftenidentified by the use of words such as "plans", "planning", "planned", "expects" or "looking forward", "does not expect", "continues", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "potential","anticipates", "does not anticipate", or "belief", or describes a "goal", or variation of such words & phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" betaken, occur or be achieved.

Forward-looking information is based on a number of factors & assumptions made by management & considered reasonable at the time such information is provided. Forward-looking informationinvolves known & unknown risks, uncertainties & other factors that may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by theforward-looking information. The Company’s Preliminary Feasibility Study (the “PFS”) is, by definition, preliminary in nature & should be considered speculative. It is based upon a process flow sheetthat may change, which would impact all costs & estimates. Operating Costs for the Project were based upon assumptions including future energy costs, natural gas costs, water costs, labor, & othervariables that are likely to change. Capital Costs were based upon a list of equipment thought to be necessary for production. SOP price forecasts were based upon third-party estimates &management assumptions that may change due to market dynamics. The mineral resource estimates were based upon assumptions outlined in the “Resource Estimate” section. Some figures werecalculated using a factor to convert short tons to metric tonnes. Changes in estimated costs to acquire, construct, install, or operate the equipment, or changes in projected pricing, may adverselyimpact project economics. Among other factors, the Company’s inability to complete further mineral resource & mineral reserve estimates; the inability to complete a Feasibility Study; the inabilityto obtain sufficient recharge; the inability to anticipate changes in brine volume or grade due to recharge or other factors; changes to the economic analysis; the failure to obtain necessary permits toexplore & develop the Sevier Playa Project; environmental issues or delays; inability to successfully complete additional drilling at the Sevier Playa Project; factors disclosed in the Company's currentManagement's Discussion & Analysis; as well as information contained in other public disclosure documents available on SEDAR at www.sedar.commay adversely impact the Project.

The information presented herein was approved by management of the Company on January 2, 2018. Although CPM has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions,events, or results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause actions, events, or results not to be as anticipated, estimated, orintended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking information will prove to be accurate. The forward-looking information contained herein is presented for the purposes of assistinginvestors in understanding the Company's plans, objectives, & goals & may not be appropriate for other purposes. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-lookinginformation. CPM does not undertake to update any forward-looking information, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.

This Investor Presentation should be read in conjunction with the Company’s technical report titled “NI 43-101 Technical Report Preliminary Feasibility Study of the Sevier Lake Playa sulfate of PotashProject, Millard County, Utah,” filed on November 18, 2013 with an effective date of October 25, 2013 (“PFS”), available at the Company’s website and on its SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.
