About the Company
Gen Mining’s focus is the development of the Marathon Project, a large undeveloped copper-
palladium deposit in Northwestern Ontario. The Marathon Property covers a land package of
approximately 26,000 hectares, or 260 square kilometers. Gen Mining is dedicated to producing
critical minerals for a greener future by promoting sustainability, empowering communities, and
delivering value to our stakeholders.
The most recent Feasibility Study (the “Technical Report”) for the Marathon Project estimated a
Net Present Value (using a 6% discount rate) of C$1.07 billion, an Internal Rate of Return of
28%, and a 1.9-year payback based on the 3-yr trailing average metal prices at the effective date
of the Technical Report. Over the anticipated 13-year mine life, the Marathon Project is expected
to produce 2,161,000 ounces of palladium, 532 million lbs of copper, 488,000 ounces of
platinum, 160,000 ounces of gold and 3,051,000 ounces of silver in payable metals. For more
