A globally recognised specialist explorer and developer

  • A tier-1 scale, pit constrained PGE-Ni-Cu-Co sulphide Resource3 at the Gonneville Deposit (9 Nov 21):

330Mt @ ~0.58% NiEq or ~1.6g/t PdEq for

equivalent to ~1.9Mt NiEq or ~17Moz PdEq

  • One of the largest greenfield PGE-Ni-Cu-Co sulphide discoveries in recent history
  • Only 7% of >26km long Julimar Complex tested to date - immense exploration upside with further drilling underway
  • Positioned to become a globally significant and strategic source of battery and hydrogen 'green metals' in WA
  • Proven ability to discover and define mines and track record of returning capital to shareholders
  • ~A$74M2 in cash + investments
  • ~5,000% TSR since Julimar discovery in March 2020

Julimar is a province-defining new

greenfield discovery in the world's premier mining jurisdiction

Greenfield project staked in

First drill hole discovery in March 2020:

25m @ 8.5g/t Pd, 0.9g/t Pt, 0.1g/t Au,

early 2018 (100% owned)

2.0% Ni, 0.9% Cu, 0.11% Co from 46m

Discovery made ~70km NE of Perth in Western Australia -

named Gonneville

Maiden resource for Gonneville based on ~520 holes (~137,000m), resource and exploration drilling continuing with 7 rigs

Gonneville covers ~2km of strike length on Chalice owned farmland, a further

~10km of untested Julimar

Complex strike length currently being drilled

Studies being advanced

for an initial mining

development at Gonneville while the full extent of the mineral system is defined

Project has direct access to major highway, rail, power, port infrastructure as well as a large local workforce

Chalice is building a world-class'green metals' portfolio in Australia

Platinum and Palladium

Highly versatile but rare metals used to remove nitrogen oxides (NOx) from

exhausts/hydrogen/ammonia streams (NOx are 300x more potent than CO2 as a greenhouse gas). Also highly effective catalysts for use in hydrogen applications, including green hydrogen production and fuel cells.

~11Moz p.a. Palladium market in deficit since 2012; supply dominated by Russia. Platinum supply dominated by South Africa, with significant political and operational challenges.

Nickel and Cobalt

The key battery cathode materials in electric vehicles (EV), high nickel NMC

811 batteries are the favoured chemistry.

EV-driven nickel demand is forecast to increase 19x by 2040; lack of new sulphide discoveries worldwide in recent years has created a significant forecast supply shortage.

Copper

Used extensively in the green energy industry including in renewables, energy storage and EVs.

Copper market is forecast to remain in deficit until 2026; lack of new large- scale discoveries worldwide.

These metals are needed to

decarbonise the global economy and address climate change
