Forward Looking Statements
Certain information contained in this Presentation may constitute “forward-looking information” under Canadian
securities legislation. Generally, forward-looking information can be identified using forward-looking terminology such as
“plans”, “seeks”, “expects”, “estimates”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “could”, “might”, “likely” or variations of such
words, or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “will”, “could”, “would”, “might”, “will be taken”, “occur”,
“be achieved” or other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements, including the expectations of CDPR’s
management regarding the completion of a Transaction as well as the business and the expansion and growth of
CDPR’s operations, are based on CDPR’s estimates and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of CDPR to be materially
different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements or forward-looking information. Forward-
looking statements are subject to business and economic factors and uncertainties and other factors, such as Covid-19,
that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements, including the relevant
assumptions and risks factors set out in CDPR’s public documents, available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. 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. Although CDPR believes that the assumptions and factors used in preparing
the forward-looking statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on these statements and forward-
looking information. Except where required by applicable law, CDPR disclaims any intention or obligation to update or
revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Cautionary Statement

Cautionary Statement Regarding Estimates of Mineral Resources
The mineral resource estimates reported in this presentation have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ
from the requirements of United States' securities laws. The CIM Definition Standards differ from the definitions in the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") Guide 7 (the "SEC Guide 7"). The terms "mineral resource", "Measured mineral resource", "Indicated mineral resource" and "Inferred
mineral resource" are defined in NI 43-101 and recognized by Canadian securities laws but are not defined terms under SEC Guide 7 or recognized under U.S.
securities laws. Readers are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be upgraded to mineral reserves.
"Inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be
assumed that all or any part of an "Inferred mineral resource" will ever by upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of "Inferred
mineral resources" may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. Readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of
an inferred mineral resource exists or is economically or legally mineable.
 Mineral resources are not mineral reserves, and do not have demonstrated economic viability, but do have reasonable prospects for economic extraction. The
estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by geology, environmental, permitting, legal, title, socio-political, marketing or other relevant issues.
Measured and Indicated mineral resources are sufficiently well defined to allow geological and grade continuity to be reasonably assumed and permit the
application of technical and economic parameters in assessing the economic viability of the resource. Inferred mineral resources are estimated on limited
information not sufficient to verify geological and grade continuity or to allow technical and economic parameters to be applied. Inferred mineral resources are too
speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them to enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. Under Canadian rules, estimates
of Inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies or economic studies except for Preliminary Assessment as defined
under NI 43-101. Readers are cautioned not to assume that further work on the stated resources will lead to mineral reserves that can be mined economically.

ABOUT CERRO DE PASCO RESOURCES

     Cerro de Pasco Resources Inc. (“CDPR”) is a resource management company, founded in
     2012 and publicly listed in Canada in 2018, with the purpose of treating and reprocessing all
     dumps, tailings, mining waste and material resources in the Cerro de Pasco Region in Peru.

     The Company is the holder of the El Metalurgista Concession which is situated immediately
     adjacent to the Cerro de Pasco mining operation and extends across the Quiulacocha tailings
     and Excelsior waste deposits. These were excluded from the privatization process in 1999, when
     Volcan Companía Minera SAA (Glencore Group) acquired the operation.

     Remediation by reprocessing is both a critical necessity and an opportunity.

     CDPR was formed as an ESG-driven mining company at the forefront of remediation and
     reprocessing technologies. Our ambition is to restore long-term sustainability to the
     mining activity in the Cerro de Pasco Region, in harmony with a healthy and motivated
     local population. Our team brings first-hand experience and ideas based on innovative
     solutions and a holistic approach, aiming to create numerous opportunities in a circular
     economy.

 Notes:
 1.      The Mineral Resource estimate was prepared by Dr. Adrian Martínez Vargas, P.Geo., Senior Resource Geologist, and employee of CSA Global Consultants Canada Limited, an
         ERM Group company, and an independent Qualified Person for the purposes of NI 43-101.
 2.      Numbers have been rounded to reflect the precision of a Mineral Resource estimate, therefore numbers may not total.
 3.      The reporting cut-off is calculated as the marginal NSR that equals total estimated mining (1 US$/t for stockpiles), processing (8 US$/t), and administration costs (2 US$/t),
         assumed metallurgical extraction by multiple stage flotation, and metal prices of Zn 2,650 US$/t, Pb 2,125 US$/t, and Ag 16 US$/oz. Metallurgical processing recoveries were
         modelled using test work and production data provided to CDPR by Volcan from its current operations at Cerro de Pasco which are processing similar material to that within the
         Excelsior Stockpile.
 4.      A bulk density of 1.98 t/m3 is used.
 5.      Block model grade interpolation was undertaken using ordinary kriging.
 6.      The average grade estimates reflect resources in-situ and do not include modifying factors such as external dilution, mining losses and process recovery losses. However,
         resources were reported based on a regularized model that included dilution with low-grade material.
 7.      The Mineral Resource estimate for the surface stockpile is constrained by the vertical lateral limits of the El Metalurgista concession boundaries and the physical limits of the
         stockpile surfaces within the concession.
 8.      Mineral Resources are estimated and classified in accordance with CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council on May 10,
         2014 using the Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practice Guidelines, adopted by the CIM Council on November 29, 2019.
 9.      Mineral Resources are not Reserves and, as such, do not have demonstrated economic viability.
 10.     One troy ounce (oz) equals 31.10348 g
