PHALABORWA – EXCITING, NEAR-TERM GROWTH OPPORTUNITY
C.35MT OF GYPSUM IN TWO STACKS FROM 50+ YEARS PHOSPHATE
Project Overview: Phalaborwa Project
HARD ROCK MINING IN SOUTH AFRICA
• Project is largely permitted and positioned in an established mining
town, with:
• associated skilled labour availability
• supporting industry (i.e. local production of key reagent, sulphuric
acid)
• Initial grab sample assays: c.210,000t rare earth oxides at 0.5% TREO;
29%-30% NdPr, with significant Dy (1%) and Tb (0.3%) credits –
supported by Rainbow’s first batch of assay results
• Considerably higher grade than a typical ionic clay style rare earth
deposit
• Assay results by SGS Laboratories indicate low levels of radioactive
elements in gypsum stacks
• Re-processing has significant environmental benefits: redepositing
clean, benign gypsum suitable for usage in building and cement
industries
11 Rainbow Rare Earths Limited H1 2021 Interim Results Presentation – March 2021PHALABORWA
EXCITING OPPORTUNITY FROM TWO GYPSUM STACKS
• Historical processing, including initial flotation Site boundary
Project Overview: Phalaborwa Project
and concentration by Foskor followed by
processing in Sasol’s PhosAcid plant, has
deposited REEs in chemical form in two gypsum
stacks
• Contained in a ‘cracked’ chemical, rare earths
expected to deliver higher-value carbonate, with Existing plant area
significantly lower operating costs than a typical
rare earth project
• No need for 1st stage of usual complex
processing requirements, which involves
producing a concentrate and then ‘cracking’ it
before delivering a higher value rare earth Gypsum stack A
carbonate
• No requirement for waste stripping, hard-rock
mining or milling/grinding

Project Overview: Phalaborwa Project
• US$750k consideration for earn-in payable in three tranches in cash and
shares over a period of 12 months
• US$250k paid in cash in December 2020 on completion of initial
confirmatory due diligence process,
• Second US$250k tranche payable after 6 months in Rainbow shares at

PRODUCING HIGH-GRADE RARE EARTH CONCENTRATE FROM THE
ONLY AFRICAN RARE EARTHS MINE IN PRODUCTION
Project Overview: Gakara Project
• Located just south of Bujumbura, Burundi (East Africa)
• Large mining permit – 39km2 with over 1,500 occurrences of Rare Earth
(RE) discovered in outcrop on surface demonstrating large scale
mineralised system
• Trial mining and processing since 2017 has demonstrated amenability
for simple, low-cost gravity separation from ore sourced from across the
licence area
• Produces a high value RE concentrate of 52-58%
• TREO with low levels of radioactivity currently exported to China for
further processing
• Weighted towards magnet REs: NdPr represent >88% of value (19.5% of
mass)

will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. Numbers are rounded to appropriate levels commensurate with the level of accuracy of an Exploration Target. The Exploration Target was estimated
as a range as required by the JORC Code (2012) and is based on data of varying quantity and quality, although is based largely on actual exploration, mining and processing results
