Benefits of the Piteiras Deal

Piteiras is a key deal for Hexa:

• It brings us a large emerald resource supported by a (2001 dated) 43-101 report. Very few emerald mines have a mineral resource estimate, so this significantly underpins the company value. Our reduced estimate is 30 Million carat of resource (reviewed by SGS).

• Strong profitability and cashflow: The mine can be re-started in 4-5 months. Independent estimates project $18-24 million net profit p.a.

• Long estimated production life: 30+ years.

• Great potential for exploration and resource uplift.

World-class quality and size of gemstones:

• Quality: Known for larger stones. Verified by GIA as higher quality than top Belmont mine.

• Diversifies our emerald business, now Colombia and Brazil. Capturing a wider product range and market for our emeralds. Co-investor the KGK group is key gem trading partner.

Piteiras Belt location and area history

HEXA RESOURCES

Emerald mining in Minas Gerais is relatively recent:• Belmont 1978• Capoeirana – garimpeiro area 1988• Piteiras discovered in 1998

Area remains under-explored• Resource area open to west• Additional emerald targets on lease• Alexandrite and aquamarine garimpos in close

proximity• Piteiras discovered via conventional mapping,

geochemistry & geophysics

Good multi-gemstone exploration potential

Belmont is private company with very little public domain information – clearly a major producer

Esmeraldas de Coscuez – Late stage exploration & fast track production potential

Closed Dec 18: Leading Operator - Esmeraldas de Coscuez (EdC), next to Coscuez mine:

• Hexa has secured exploration / operating rights to a large proportion (48%) of EdC’s

69 ha next to the historic Coscuez mine (majority owned and operated by Fura Gems).

• Main Coscuez mine operated over 450 years – is one of top three producing areas in

Colombia. High quality emerald production. Recent 43-101 resource of 6 Million carat.

• Coscuez anticline and Muzo Formation extrapolated within the EdC licenses. Access

tunnels already in place providing accelerated exploration potential.

• EdC has produced gem quality emeralds historically, and recently in smaller quantities,

and has an active network of 7 tunnels/adits covering circa 4-5km.

Terms:

• Purchased 2% JV interest and 2 exclusive operating areas (incl. 2 tunnels) in the EdClicence area (options available for later equity increase). Hexa receives 60% of net profitsas operator as well as equity share (so 60.8% overall economic share).

satellite data acquisition)

• Geochemical and geophysical testing of targets pre exploration drilling • Diamond drill testing of targets within existing tunnels - before extending

existing tunnels to locate potential mineralised zones

Late Stage exploration:• To cover the first year following closing • Focusing on available zones near to the historic

Coscuez mine.

Hexa - Improving sustainable mining performance

HEXA RESOURCES

Production:

• Implement enhanced security processes to reduce stealing

• Install washing plant to improve screening and recovery of small emeralds

• Use more geological inputs and drilling to improve discovery rate

• Consider decline-access tunnel to lower levels, to improve:

➢ air circulation, temperature, materials flow and personnel access.

• Renew electrics, air supply lines, and general equipment

Exploration:

• Geophysical and geochemical surveys to locate potential resource areas

• Detailed mapping and in-mine drilling to identify zones of interest

Corporate & Social Responsibility:

• Provide worker stability by fixing salaries, and motivate with profit share

• Upgrade Health & Safety equipment and procedures and provide training

• Contribute to selected local community projects once business profitable

Page 23: Hexa Resources Limited€¦ · presentation, including without limitation statements regarding potential mineralization and reserves, exploration results, and future plans and objectives

Sustainability and Community – a firm commitment

We strongly believe in building a Sustainable Business, which is healthy and safe, and aligned with the environment and the community. This is a key measure of success for us.

Health and Safety:

• Aim is to refit the mines, and our work areas, to ensure they comply with International / Colombian good / best practice. Training will also be carried out to ensure staff are health and safety conscious.

Environment: • Colombian mining authority laws focus mainly on water, effluents, and location of waste tips. We will

endeavour to ensure that we comply with the law and best practices in the disposal of water, and waste.• We will be seeking to introduce green energy sources (eg solar) to the mines we work in, to reduce

carbon emissions, and help create a cleaner environment. These sources will also assist profitability.

Community:

• Our Community Advisor is Ron Ringsrud, who has worked for many years in the Colombian emerald industry. He runs a charity called Clayhands which supports the local mining communities of Muzo/Boyaca by building housing, and community infrastructure. We support Clayhands directly.

• Together with Clayhands we have identified a derelict brick factory near our new Coscuez licences. We intend to co-invest to re-start this factory, and then have it managed by the local community.

• Our approach in any new area is to research where we can help the community and put in place a long term support plan.
