Background – Investment Approach
Metal Tiger (AIM:MTR) employs a hands on and dynamic investment approach and pursues a hybrid public and private
equity investing model focused on the mining sector.

The Company invests in direct asset level exposure with high return potential and a larger ownership position akin to an
exploration and development company as well as primarily active and passive equity investments. Active investments are
where Metal Tiger has Board representation and typically over a 10% investment stake.

These investments are split into the following categories:
• Project Investments – always active

• Equity Investments – active and passive

and are categorised into active or passive investments and can be both public or private. The Company also has a portfolio
of pre-production Royalties.
Investments are assessed on seven core categories that can help drive value:

• Significant discovery potential
• Country/district/first mover advantage
• Application of improved exploration techniques

• Exploration value uplift potential/brownfields

• Financial restructuring opportunity
• M&A opportunity

• Macro/Micro economic trading opportunity

Finally, if an opportunity arises that doesn’t fit the above it is categorised as a special situation investment opportunity and
would primarily be undertaken to balance the Company’s investment portfolio risk profile.

Royalty Investments
Metal Tiger holds the following three Royalties (under four Royalty agreements):

•   Royalty 1: a US$2m capped 2% net smelter royalty over Sandfire Resources’ T3 project in the Kalahari Copperbelt (within PL190/2008 which is held by
    Sandfire Resources’ subsidiary Tshukudu Metals Botswana).

•   Royalty 2: an uncapped 2% net smelter royalty over any future production over Sandfire Resources’ 100% held subsidiary Tshukudu Exploration Limited’s
    circa 8,000km2 licence holding in the Kalahari Copperbelt (including the area covered by PL190/2008 that is outside of the T3 project, in which Tshukudu
    Exploration Limited holds a beneficial (but not legal) interest).

• Royalty 3: an uncapped conditional 2% net smelter royalty over all of Kalahari Metals Group's (“Kalahari Metals”) wholly owned licences, being seven
  licences covering, in aggregate, 6,650km2. These are structured as two separate royalty agreements based on how the licences are held under Kalahari
  Metals’ corporate structure but the ultimate guarantor is Kalahari Metals.
Exciting, recently announced (17 April 2020), results at the A4 prospect located 8km west of the T3 Copper-Silver Project are already starting to add significant
value potential to Royalty 2. Sandfire has announced that its resource drill out was >50% complete prior to recent COVID-19 restrictions which suspended
drilling.

 Assays are awaited for a further 12 holes drilled into the A4 resource area and six holes have commenced but not been completed as per their latest
announcement.

Some highlights include:
MO-A4-035D: 18m @ 5.2% Cu and 124g/t Ag from 77m down-hole (uncut), or
                      18m @ 3.9% Cu and 124g/t Ag from 77m down-hole (15% top-cut); and

• Phase 1 2020 drill programme suspended in April 2020 due
  to COVID-19 restrictions.

• The Phase 1 Drilling Programme at KIT-E consists of a
  planned 1,200m of core drilling over an initial four holes
  (Figure 1). Drilling will focus on an interpreted northern
  anticlinal structure where the AEM survey has identified
  compelling fold structures, possibly related to marker
  conductor units in the lower D’Kar Formation (“DKF”)
  stratigraphy. Drilling will aim to confirm the presence of
  Ngwako Pan Formation (“NPF”) which will significantly
  upgrade the potential for shallow mineralisation in this target.

• Drilling completed to date at Kitlanya East has intersected
  shallow lower D’Kar formation units, highlighting the potential
  for Cu-Ag mineralisation in close proximity to neighbouring
  Sandfire Resources T3 deposit.

• During the 2019, field season, work on the KIT-E project
  identified a number of interpreted anticlinal structures which
  have the potential to host Cu-Ag mineralisation along the
  traditional DKF–NPF redox contact as well as in folded
  trapsites above the DKF-NPF contact, akin to Sandfire
  Resources’ T3 project and A4 prospect which are situated
  directly north of the project.
