FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This news release includes certain "forward-looking information" under applicable Canadian and U.S.
securities legislation, including but not limited to statements relating to timing and costs related to the
general business and operational outlook of the Company, the environmental footprint of tailings and
positive ecosystem impact relating thereto, donation and upcycling of tailings, timing and quantities
relating to tailings and Green Lithium, achievements and projections relating to the Zero Tailings
strategy, achievement of ramp-up volumes, production estimates and the operational status of the
Grota do Cirilo Project, and other forward-looking information. All statements that address future
plans, activities, events, estimates, expectations or developments that the Company believes,
expects or anticipates will or may occur is forward-looking information, including statements regarding
the potential development of mineral resources and mineral reserves which may or may not occur.
Forward-looking information contained herein is based on certain assumptions regarding, among
other things: general economic and political conditions; the stable and supportive legislative,
regulatory and community environment in Brazil; demand for lithium, including that such demand is
supported by growth in the electric vehicle market; the Company's market position and future financial
and operating performance; the Company's estimates of mineral resources and mineral reserves,
including whether mineral resources will ever be developed into mineral reserves; and the Company's
ability to operate its mineral projects including that the Company will not experience any materials or
equipment shortages, any labour or service provider outages or delays or any technical issues.
Although management believes that the assumptions and expectations reflected in the forward-
looking information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that these assumptions and
expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking information inherently involves and is subject to
risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to that the market prices for lithium may not remain at
current levels; and the market for electric vehicles and other large format batteries currently has
limited market share and no assurances can be given for the rate at which this market will develop, if
at all, which could affect the success of the Company and its ability to develop lithium operations.
There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future
events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should
not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. The Company disclaims any intention or
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information, whether because of new information,
future events or otherwise, except as required by law. For more information on the risks, uncertainties
and assumptions that could cause our actual results to differ from current expectations, please refer to
