for the purposes of applicable securities laws. These statements include, among others, statements with
respect to the Company's plans for exploration and development of its properties and potential
mineralization. These statements address future events and conditions and, as such, involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or
achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed
or implied by the statements. Such risk factors inc lude, among others, failure to obtain regulatory
approvals, failure to complete anticipated transactions, the timing and success of future exploration and
development activities, exploration and development risks, title matters, inability to obtain any required
third party consents, operating hazards, metal prices, political and economic factors, competitive factors,
general economic conditions, relationships with strategic partners, governmental regulation and
supervision, seasonality, technological change, industry practices and one-time events. In making the
forward-looking statements, the Company has applied several material assumptions including, but not
limited to, the assumptions that: (1) the proposed exploration and development of mineral projects wil l
proceed as planned; (2) market fundamentals will result in sustained metals and minerals prices and (3)
any additional financing needed will be available on reasonable terms. The Company expressly disclaims

The Company cautions that it has not completed any feasibility studies on any of its mineral properties,
and no mineral reserve estimate has been established. In particular, because the Company's production
decision relating to BMC's manganese project is not based upon a feasibility study of mineral reserves ,
the economic and technical viability of the Espigão manganese project has not been established.
