NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION; NO OFFERING Fathom Nickel | 2 Fathom Nickel – All About Grade ▪ Albert Lake Project acquired in 2015 at the bottom of the Nickel cycle ▪ Large 34,395 ha land package in Saskatchewan ▪ ~10,000 ha has significant geophysical work done ▪ ~24,000 ha unexplored ▪ Rottenstone Mine: ▪ One of the highest recorded grade nickel mines in Canada: 3.23+% Ni, 1.83% Cu, 9.63 g/t Pd-Pt; a NiEq of 8.76% ▪ USD $1,550/tonne based on current metal prices ▪ Historic non-compliant resource of 19,000 tonnes of original ore remains in ground ▪ Substantial opportunity to expand the deposit ▪ Geophysical/Geochemical data supports the thesis that the Rottenstone Mine is part of a Raglan style deposit ▪ Multiple individual pods and lenses; variable in size, of high-grade nickel ▪ Raglan Style Model with 0.5 to 1.0 Million Tonne “Exploration Target”* (1 Million tonnes at Historical grades would mean 188M lbs of NiEq) ▪ The exploration opportunity at Albert Lake Project is focused on 2 objectives: 1. Expanding the deposit at the Rottenstone Mine 2. Finding additional high-grade nickel deposits *An “Exploration Target Potential” of 0.5 to 1Mt, refers to numerous conceptual deposits with similar size and grade of the Rottenstone deposit. This estimate is conceptual in nature as there is insufficient data to declare a “Mineral Resource” under CIM and NI 43-101 guidelines currently at the Rottenstone property. Furthermore; it is uncertain whether further exploration of the targets discussed in this report will result in delineating a mineral resource.
