CPM Investor Presentation 2019-12 Plant nutrition for a healthier world TSX-V: CPM | OTCQX: CPMMF | Investor Presentation | Q4 2019 CRYSTAL PEAK MINERALS DISCLAIMER This presentation is for informational purposes and does not constitute an offer or a solicitation of an offer to purchase securities. This presentation contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, statements related to activities, events or developments that Crystal Peak Minerals Inc. (“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 reserves; mineral resource estimate; the permitting process; environmental assessments; business strategy; objectives and goals; and exploration of the Sevier Playa Project. Forward-looking information is often identified 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 and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward-looking information is based on factors and assumptions made by management and considered reasonable at the time such information is provided. Forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. The Company’s Feasibility Study (the “FS”) should be considered incomplete. It is based upon details that may change, which would impact costs and estimates. Operating costs for the Project were based upon assumptions including future energy costs, propane and natural gas costs, water costs, labor, and other variables that are likely to change. Capital costs were based upon a list of equipment thought to be necessary for production. Potassium sulfate and other price forecasts were based upon third-party estimates and 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 were calculated 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 adversely impact project economics. Among other factors, the Company’s inability to obtain sufficient recharge water; 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 to develop the Sevier Playa Project; environmental issues or delays; inability to successfully complete additional trenching and drilling at the Sevier Playa Project; factors disclosed in the Company's current Management's Discussion and Analysis; as well as information contained in other public disclosure documents available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com may adversely impact the Project. The information presented herein was approved by management of the Company on December 16, 2019. 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, or intended. 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 assisting investors in understanding the Company's plans, objectives, and goals and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. CPM does not undertake to update any forward-looking information, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.

  • Sustainability in the Minerals Industry: Seeking a Consensus on Its Meaning
    sustainability Review Sustainability in the Minerals Industry: Seeking a Consensus on Its Meaning Juliana Segura-Salazar * ID and Luís Marcelo Tavares Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro—COPPE/UFRJ, Cx. Postal 68505, CEP 21941-972, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +55-21-2290-1544 (ext. 237/238) Received: 23 February 2018; Accepted: 24 April 2018; Published: 4 May 2018 Abstract: Sustainability science has received progressively greater attention worldwide, given the growing environmental concerns and socioeconomic inequity, both largely resulting from a prevailing global economic model that has prioritized profits. It is now widely recognized that mankind needs to adopt measures to change the currently unsustainable production and consumption patterns. The minerals industry plays a fundamental role in this context, having received attention through various initiatives over the last decades. Several of these have been, however, questioned in practice. Indeed, a consensus on the implications of sustainability in the minerals industry has not yet been reached. The present work aims to deepen the discussion on how the mineral sector can improve its sustainability. An exhaustive literature review of peer-reviewed academic articles published on the topic in English over the last 25 years, as well as complementary references, has been carried out. From this, it became clear that there is a need to build a better definition of sustainability for the mineral sector, which has been proposed here from a more holistic viewpoint. Finally, and in light of this new perspective, several of the trade-offs and synergies related to sustainability of the minerals industry are discussed in a cross-sectional manner.

  • Conflicting Narratives of Deep Sea Mining
    sustainability Review Conflicting Narratives of Deep Sea Mining Axel Hallgren 1 and Anders Hansson 1,2,* 1 Department of Thematic Studies: Environmental Change, Linköping University, S-581 83 Linköping, Sweden; [email protected] 2 Centre for Climate Science and Policy Research (CSPR), Linköping University, S-581 83 Linköping, Sweden * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: As land-based mining industries face increasing complexities, e.g., diminishing return on investments, environmental degradation, and geopolitical tensions, governments are searching for alternatives. Following decades of anticipation, technological innovation, and exploration, deep seabed mining (DSM) in the oceans has, according to the mining industry and other proponents, moved closer to implementation. The DSM industry is currently waiting for international regulations that will guide future exploitation. This paper aims to provide an overview of the current status of DSM and structure ongoing key discussions and tensions prevalent in scientific literature. A narrative review method is applied, and the analysis inductively structures four narratives in the results section: (1) a green economy in a blue world, (2) the sharing of DSM profits, (3) the depths of the unknown, and (4) let the minerals be. The paper concludes that some narratives are conflicting, but the policy path that currently dominates has a preponderance towards Narrative 1—encouraging industrial mining in the near future based on current knowledge—and does not reflect current wider discussions in the literature. The paper suggests that the regulatory process and discussions should be opened up and more perspectives, such as if DSM is morally appropriate (Narrative 4), should be taken into consideration.

POLINARES D1.1 – Framework for understanding the sources of conflict and tension Grant Agreement: 224516 Dissemination Level: PU 6. Mineral Depletion and Peak Production Magnus Ericsson and Patrik Söderholm Introduction Natural resources are essential for the economic development of human societies and cultures, and fears of an impending depletion of these resources have been expressed (at least) since antiquity (e.g., Maurice and Smithson, 1984). The most recent – and overall very influential – predictions of resource depletion are those concerning the production of oil. Advocates of the so-called peak oil concept suggest that oil production is close to an unavoidable (geologically-determined) peak that could have serious consequences for the global economy and society as a whole.1 The ‘peak’ concept has increasingly influenced the debate over mineral depletion as well, and some analysts claim that world production of many minerals (e.g., lead, mercury, cadmium etc.) has already peaked or are close to peaking (Vernon, 2007, Bleischwitz et al., 2009).

  • 13. Mineral Resource Scarcity
    13. Mineral resource scarcity Marisa Vieira1,2*, Mark A.J. Huijbregts1 1 Department of Environmental Science, Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands 2 PRé Consultants b.v., The Netherlands * [email protected] Based on: Vieira et al. (2012) and Vieira et al. (2016). 13.1. Areas of protection and environmental mechanisms covered Description of impact pathway Mineral resources are key raw materials in many industrial sectors and hence their demand is increasing. Although it has been argued that mineral resources are available in almost infinite amounts in the earth crust, the actual availability of a mineral primarily depends on ore grades (Gerst 2008). The impact patway of mineral resource extraction is illustrated in Figure 13.1 and described in equation 13.1. When a mineral is extracted (ME), the overall ore grade of that mineral declines (OG) (Mudd 2007; Prior et al. 2012). This mechanism can be captured by cumulative grade-tonnage relationships, as shown by Vieira et al. (2012). The smaller the ore grade, the larger the amount of ore that needs to be produced for extracting the same amount of mineral resource (OP). According to Prior et al. (2012), ore grade decline can be used as an indicator for a range of societal impacts. For instance, larger amounts of ore produced for the same unit of mineral output, implies more waste (waste rock, tailings) to be handled. The larger the future mineral resource extraction (R) the larger becomes the overall increase of ore produced. Consequently, the future metal extraction is relevant and should be considered. The average increase in ore amount per kg of mineral extracted considering all future mineral resource yet to be extracted is defined as the surplus ore potential, here the life cycle impact indicator.

  • Urgent Policy Considerations for a Sustainable Society
    The World 5 model; Peak metals, minerals, energy, wealth, food and population; urgent policy considerations for a sustainable society Harald Ulrik Sverdrup1 Deniz Koca1, and Kristín Vala Ragnarsdóttir2 1Chemical Engineering, University of Lund, SE-221 00, Lund, Sweden 2Earth Sciences, University of Iceland, IS-101 Reykjavik, Iceland Abstract In this paper we show that several metals, elements and energy resources are about to run into scarcity within the next decades, and most elements within some centuries. A new global systems model was assembled to analyse this scarcity as a continuation of the model used in the Limits-to-Growth World3 model. We show that this scarcity will lead to “peak wealth”, “peak population”, “peak costs”, “peak junk”, “peak problems” and possibly “peak civilization”, unless some urgent measures are systematically taken throughout the world. Scarcity implies that materials that underpin modern society will largely be unavailable for global mass production of goods. The material volumes that can be supplied from fossil reserves will be reduced with respect to today and all materials will go up sharply in price. The future resource supply is thus unsustainable as long as resource use continues as today. The creation of money from conversion of resources and work, as well as the current extensive borrowing from the future, cause concerns that peak oil and peak materials may lead to “peak wealth” and the end of the golden age we currently have for developed nations. Our policy recommendations are that governments must take this issue seriously and immediately start preparing for legislations that can close material cycles, optimize energy use and minimize all types of irreversible material losses as soon as possible.
