Why Paladin?

Paladin has streamlined the company with the sole focus on the restart of the globally significant Langer Heinrich operation in mining friendly Namibia

Our existing infrastructure, historic mine development and 10-year operations track record provides Paladin an early mover option in an improving uranium price market

Paladin has a strong financial position with US$35.8M in cash reserves and a FY2021 cash spend forecast of <>

There is a growing structural U3O8 supply deficit in the global uranium market which is being exacerbated by COVID 19 production disruptions

The company has completed an extensive Restart Pre-Feasibility Study that confirms Langer Heinrich's competitiveness with other large-scale suspended uranium operations

We have the right team to deliver & execute the Company's strategy

Strong financial position

  • US$35.8M of Unrestricted Cash1,2 provides extended runway for Paladin to execute its strategy
  • Significantly reduced cash burn with FY2021 forecast < US$10M (FY2020 guidance US$17M) delivered by:
    • Sale of Kayelekera mine
    • Optimised care & maintenance costs at Langer Heinrich
    • Reduced levels of feasibility work
  • US$6M cash due from the sale of Kayelekera mine over the next 3 years (repayment of environmental bond)
  • US$142.2M of senior debt1 including accrued interest, repayment due January 2023
  • Paladin will only consider a restart of the Langer Heinrich operation when it secures uranium term-price contracts with sufficient tenure and value to deliver an appropriate level of return to stakeholders

Langer Heinrich

A Globally Significant Uranium Operation

Langer Heinrich operation overview

  • A strategic, tier one mine with a historical production capacity of 5.2Mlb pa U3O8

Paladin suspended operations in May 2018 due to low

  • Paladin owns 75% (25% owned by CNNC Overseas Uranium Holding Limited)
  • Fully permitted and licensed with a 17-year production life remaining
  • Our relationships and uranium product are market proven with the company having produced and marketed 43Mlb of U3O8 equivalent over 10 years
  • Proven top 10 Uranium mine by volume when in production1
  • To build Langer Heinrich today would require a capital investment of over US $600M (plus working capital) and take approximately five years to secure approvals, plan, design, construct and commissionuranium prices

Namibia is a premier uranium jurisdiction

Three globally significant Uranium mines (Husab, Rossing and Langer Heinrich) when at full capacity supply ~15% of the world's Uranium (~25Mlb pa U3O8)

Uranium has been continually produced in Namibia since 1976 under a stable mining and Uranium regulation regime

Mining contributes ~25% to the country's GDP

Excellent local infrastructure (port, road, rail, water & power) with proximity to the Walvis Bay industrial hub

Strong community and government support for the uranium industry

Langer Heinrich restart & debottlenecking plan underway

Restart & Debottlenecking Plan is currently underway and focused on:

Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) outcomes being stress tested to maximise financial returns

Plant reliability and de-risking restart activities

Future operational and financial projections being reconciled to historical operational performance

  • "Base Case" restart plan to be defined and will fall within the range of economic parameters detailed in the
    PFS
