2. Caution Regarding Forward Looking Information and Statements
This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable
Canadian securities legislation (collectively, “forward-looking statements”). Forward-looking statements include statements that use forward-looking terminology such as “may”, “could”, “would”, “will”, “should”, “intend”,
“target”, “plan”, “expect”, “budget”, “estimate”, “forecast”, “schedule”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “continue”, “potential”, “view” or the negative or grammatical variation thereof or other variations thereof or comparable
terminology. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the Company's guidance and/or outlook on future production, costs and capital expenditures; development plans, costs,
timelines and/or approvals for, as well as benefits, production and/or performance expected by, growth projects including development of the Deepening Extension Zone, construction of the new external shaft, and creation
of a two-mine system at the Pilar Mine, the potential benefit of Project Honeypot at the Pilar Mine, construction of the Boa Esperança mine, development of the Matinha Vein at the NX Gold Mine, expansion of the Caraíba
Mill, and other infrastructure projects at the MCSA Complex; the Company’s expectations, strategies and plans for the MCSA Mining Complex, the NX Gold Property and the Boa Esperança Property, including, but not limited
to, the Company’s planned exploration, development and production activities; and the significance and timing of any particular exploration program or result and the Company’s expectations for current and future
exploration plans including, but not limited to, planned areas of additional exploration, further extensions and expansion of mineralization at the MCSA Mining Complex, the NX Gold Mine and the Boa Esperança Project.
Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions of management in light of management's experience and perception of trends, current
conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be relevant and reasonable in the circumstances, as of the date of this presentation including, without limitation, assumptions
about: continued effectiveness of the measures taken by the Company to mitigate the possible impact of COVID-19 on its workforce and operations; favourable equity and debt capital markets; the ability to raise any
necessary additional capital on reasonable terms to advance the production, development and exploration of the Company's properties and assets; future prices of copper and other metal prices; the timing and results of
exploration and drilling programs; the accuracy of any mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates; the geology of the MCSA Mining Complex, NX Gold Property and the Boa Esperança Property being as described in the
technical reports for these properties; production costs; the accuracy of budgeted exploration and development costs and expenditures; the price of other commodities such as fuel; future currency exchange rates and
interest rates; operating conditions being favourable such that the Company is able to operate in a safe, efficient and effective manner; work force conditions to remain healthy in the face of prevailing epidemics, pandemics
or other health risks (including COVID-19), political and regulatory stability; the receipt of governmental, regulatory and third party approvals, licenses and permits on favourable terms; obtaining required renewals for
existing approvals, licenses and permits on favourable terms; requirements under applicable laws; sustained labour stability; stability in financial and capital goods markets; availability of equipment and critical supplies,
spare parts and consumables; positive relations with local groups and the Company's ability to meet its obligations under its agreements with such groups; and satisfying the terms and conditions of the Company's current
loan arrangements. While the Company considers these assumptions to be reasonable, the assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, social, economic, political, regulatory, competitive, global health, and
other risks and uncertainties, contingencies and other factors that could cause actual actions, events, conditions, results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those projected in the forward-looking
statements. Many assumptions are based on factors and events that are not within the control of the Company and there is no assurance they will prove to be correct.Furthermore, such forward-looking statements involve a
variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual plans, intentions, activities, results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future
plans, intentions, activities, results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks include, without limitation, the risk factors listed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the
Annual Information Form of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2021, dated March 11, 2022 (the “AIF”).
Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events, conditions, results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those described in forward-looking
statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events, conditions, results, performance or achievements to differ from those anticipated, estimated or intended.
The Company cautions that the foregoing lists of important assumptions and factors are not exhaustive. Other events or circumstances could cause actual results to differ materially from those estimated or projected and
expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statement contained herein. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statement will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially
from those anticipated in such statement. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statement.
Forward-looking statements contained herein are made as of the date of this presentation and the Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new
information, future events or results or otherwise, except as and to the extent required by applicable securities laws.
This presentation may also contain future-oriented financial information (“FOFI”) and information which could be considered to be in the nature of a “financial outlook”. Such FOFI or financial outlook was approved by
management of the Company as of the date of presentation for the purpose of providing management’s reasonable estimate of what return investors might expect to earn based on the assumptions set forth in such
estimates and the information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Management cautions that such FOFI or financial outlook reflects the Company’s current beliefs and are based on information currently available to
the Company and on assumptions the Company believes are reasonable. Actual results and developments may differ materially from results and developments discussed in the FOFI or financial outlook as they are subject to
a number of significant risks and uncertainties. Certain of these risks and uncertainties are beyond the Company’s control. Consequently, all of the FOFI or financial outlook are qualified by these cautionary statements, and
there can be no assurances.
Cautionary Notes Regarding Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Estimates
In accordance with applicable Canadian securities regulatory requirements, all mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates of the Company disclosed in this presentation have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101
and are classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum ("CIM") Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council on May 10, 2014 (the
"CIM Standards"). NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral
projects. NI 43-101 differs significantly from the disclosure requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") generally applicable to U.S. companies. For example, the terms "mineral reserve", "proven
mineral reserve", "probable mineral reserve", "mineral resource", "measured mineral resource", "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource" are defined in NI 43-101. These definitions differ from the
definitions in the disclosure requirements promulgated by the SEC. Accordingly, information contained in this presentation may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies reporting pursuant to
SEC disclosure requirements.
Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Pursuant to the CIM Standards, mineral resources have a higher degree of uncertainty than mineral reserves as to their
existence as well as their economic and legal feasibility. Inferred mineral resources, when compared with measured or indicated mineral resources, have the least certainty as to their existence, and it cannot be assumed that
all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will be upgraded to an indicated or measured mineral resource as a result of continued exploration. Pursuant to NI 43-101, inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of
any economic analysis. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of a mineral resource exists, will ever be converted into a mineral reserve, or is or will ever be economically or legally mineable or
recovered.

Please see the AIF, 2020 MCSA Technical Report, 2018 MCSA Technical Report (on SEDAR only), the 2020 NX Gold Mine Technical Report, and the Boa Esperança Technical Report, each filed on the Company’s profile at
www.sedar.com and www.sec.gov, for details regarding the data verification undertaken with respect to the scientific and technical information included in this presentation regarding the MCSA Mining Complex, the NX
Gold Mine and the Boa Esperança Property, for additional details regarding the related exploration information, including interpretations, the QA/QC employed, sample, analytical and testing results and for additional details
regarding the mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates disclosed herein.
Where applicable, exploration target projection(s) are shown to demonstrate future area of exploration focus within the Company’s operations. These projections are based on data compilation work which includes review of
geological controls, structural analysis and copper mineralization identified during the Company’s technical programs. The interpretation and boundary limits do not imply continuity of mineralization, or actual thickness of
mineralization which has yet to be defined.
Third Party Information
This presentation includes market, industry and economic data which was obtained from various publicly available sources and other sources believed by the Company to be true. Although the Company believes it to be
reliable, the Company has not independently verified any of the data from third party sources referred to in this presentation, or analyzed or verified the underlying reports relied upon or referred to by such sources, or
ascertained the underlying economic and other assumptions relied upon by such sources. The Company believes that its market, industry and economic data is accurate and that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable,
but there can be no assurance as to the accuracy or completeness thereof. The accuracy and completeness of the market, industry and economic data used throughout this presentation are not guaranteed and the Company
does not make any representation as to the accuracy or completeness of such information.
Non-IFRS Measures
Financial results of the Company are prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Company and MCSA utilize certain non-IFRS measures, including C1 cash cost of copper produced per pound, C1 cash costs of gold produced per
ounce, EBITDA and working capital as more particularly described in the Company's MD&A for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, a copy of which can be found on the Company's website, on SEDAR and
on EDGAR. The Company believes that these measures, together with measures determined in accordance with IFRS, provide investors with an improved ability to evaluate the underlying performance of the Company, the
MCSA Mining Complex and the NX Gold Mine. Non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS, and therefore they may not be comparable to similar measures employed by other
companies. The data is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. C1 cash cost of copper produced
(per lb) is the sum of production costs, net of capital expenditure development costs and by-product credits, divided by the copper pounds produced. C1 cash cost reported by the Company include treatment, refining
charges, offsite costs, and certain tax credits relating to sales invoiced to the Company's Brazilian customer on sales. C1 cash cost of copper produced per pound is a non-IFRS measure used by the Company to manage and
evaluate operating performance of the Company’s operating mining unit and is widely reported in the mining industry as benchmarks for performance but does not have a standardized meaning and is disclosed in addition to
IFRS measures. C1 cash cost of gold produced (per ounce) is the sum of production costs, net of capital expenditure development costs and silver by-product credits, divided by the gold ounces produced. C1 cash cost of
gold produced per ounce is a non-IFRS measure used by the Company to manage and evaluate operating performance of the Company's operating mining unit and is widely reported in the mining industry as benchmarks for
performance but does not have a standardized meaning and is disclosed in addition to IFRS measures.
