An investment in the Company is speculative due to the nature of the its business. The ability of the Company to carry out
its plans as described in this confidential presentation is depending on obtaining the required capital. There is no assurance
that the Company will be able to successfully raise the capital required or to complete each of the growth initiatives
described. Investors must rely upon the ability, expertise, judgment, discretion, integrity and good faith of the management
and Board of the Company.
The Corporation’s is focus on developing the PUREVAP™ processes. The PUREVAP™ Quartz Reduction Reactor (QRR), a new
carbothermic process to transform Quartz and Carbons into Silicon Metal, and the PUREVAP™ Silicon Metal (Si) Nano Reactor
(SiNR), a new process to transform Silicon Metal into Spherical Nano powders and Nano wires for Lithium-ion batteries. The
terms Silicon Metal and Si are used interchangeably. Metallurgical Grade Silicon or Mg Si refers to Silicon Metal of a purity
between 98.0% Si and 99.5% Si.
Any monetary values given to end product produce by the equipment, projected capital or operating cost and savings
associated with the development of process should not be construed as being related to the establishing of the economic
viability or technical feasibility on any of the Company’s Quartz properties or more specifically the Roncevaux Quartz
Project, Matapedia Area, in the Gaspe Region, Province of Quebec.

THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
6
CORPORATE OVERVIEW (February 2020)
Project
• HPQ, working with PyroGenesis Canada Inc (TSX-V: PYR), is developing the PUREVAPTM QRR and
the PUREVAPTM SiNR, two new innovative plasma base processes which will permit the low cost
manufacturing of High Purity Silicon Metal, Spherical Nano-powders and Nanowires for Next
Generation Lithium-ion Batteries
PUREVAPTM Pilot Plant –
SiNR Test Plant
H1 2020 Start
• HPQ is about to start its 50 TPA PUREVAPTM QRR pilot plant & PUREVAPTM SiNR Test Plant that will:
 Demonstrate our ability to be a low Opex and Capex producer of high purity Silicon Metal (Si)
 Demonstrate our ability to be a low cost producer of Spherical Nano-powders and Nanowires
 Qualifying and selling products to potential customers (Batteries and Others)
Unique Capability of
PUREVAPTM Process
• PUREVAPTM QRR & SiNR
 QRR - reduce raw material cost by 50%, representing a direct 20% reduction in OPEX
 QRR - reduce HPQ Manufacturing CAPEX by 90% or more versus all other new Silicon Metal plants
 QRR - process allows HPQ to Produce any Purity Silicon (Si) up to 4N Si in one step
 SiNR – lowering the cost of making Spherical Nano-powders and Nanowires needed for Li-Ion Batteries
Advancing Silicon
Innovations
• Silicon Metal (Si) is a key material for the ongoing renewable energy revolution
• HPQ to maximize the PUREVAPTM QRR Capability of converting low quality inputs in the high
purity Si needed for Advance Materials Innovations, and maximize the PUREVAPTM SiNR Unique
Proprietary Capability of transforming Si into Spherical Nano-powders and Nanowires
PUREVAPTM Silicon Metal
addressable markets
• Present market (2018) US$ 15B (US$ 7.5B Standard Si, Batteries Si US $400M & US$ 7.1B Solar Si)
• Expected to reach US$ 24B over the coming years (US$ 12B for Standard Si by 2023; US$ 1B for
batteries Si by 2022; and US$ 11.8B for Solar Si by 2028)
HPQ implementing a
multi prong development
approach
• Near term: Focus on generating cash flow by using the PUREVAPTM QRR and SINR for high value
niche market silicon applications (Si for batteries (Nanopowders, Nanowires and Wafers, 2N+Si…)
• Medium term: Focus on High Purity silicon for advanced PV applications, developing in partnership
with Apollon Solar, a new PUREVAPTM QRR metallurgical pathway for Solar Grade Si
Strong support from
key stakeholders
• HPQ-Silicon has strong support from PyroGenesis Canada Inc, which holds on a fully diluted basis
about 12.5% of the capital of the Corporation PLUS the Government of Québec which holds on a
fully diluted basis about 9.9% of HPQ-Silicon. Apollon Solar is also a shareholder

SILICON METAL (Si)
Usages Global Megatrends
• One of today’s key strategic minerals (EU Commission - US DOJ)
• Needed for Renewable Energy Transition
• Does not exist naturally in its pure state
 Expensive Carbothermic process needed to extract it from Quartz (SiO2)
 Quartz is one of the most abundant minerals in the earth’s crust

SILICON METAL DEMAND OUTLOOK
Standard Silicon Metal Demand (98.5 to 99.5% SI purity) going from:
 2.8 Million MT Demand worth US$ 7.5 Billion in 2018
 To ~ 3.8 Million MT Demand worth US$ 12 Billion in 2023
 Projected Increase Driven by Chemical Sector (2N+ Si) and EV Growth
(Source CRU – Silicon Market Outlook – November 14, 2018)

Contribution to the expected growth in annual production capacity outside China and the CIS
between 2010 and 2020 &
NEW CONVENTIONAL PLANTS HAVE:
• Minimum Size Requirement > 30,000 MTY
REQUIRE SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENTS:
(Capex from most recent new plants)
• PCC BakkiSilicon hf 2018 turnkey plant in Húsavík
(Iceland) cost US$ 300M
o US$ 9.38 Capex per Kg of annual capacity
• Mississippi Silicon (Rima Subsidiary) 2015 plant in
Burnsville Mississippi (USA) cost US$ 220M
o US$ 6.11 Capex per Kg of annual capacity
CHALLENGES TO MEET ANTICIPATED DEMAND
CONVENTIONAL PROCESS:
 Capital intensive mature technology with relatively flat opex curve and
limited cost control options
 90% of conventional process cost range bound between US$ 1,450/MT to US$ 2,000/MT
 Requires 6+ MT of raw material to make 1 MT of Standard Si
 Raw Materials, Electricity and Depreciation(Capex) make up bulk of cost (~ 80%)
 Strategic Risk with the largest single cost raw material: Low Ash Coal
 ~ 50% of the world supply of low Ash Coal controlled by largest Si producer in the world

Silicon Metal anodes replace Graphite one!
 Substituting Graphite anode with Silicon Metal
ones represents a massive demand opportunity
 Graphite addressable market in 2018 ~ US$ 3.4B;
projected to increase to ~ US$ 14B in 2023 and
~ US$ 24B in 2028
 Spherically Si Nano Powders and Si Nanowire

Silicon Metal: The Future of Energy Storage

  • 1. SILICON METAL: The Future of Energy Storage
  • 2. 2 DISCLAIMERS This presentation includes certain “FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS” All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included herein, including, without limitation, statements regarding future plans and objectives of the company, are forward-looking statements that involve various risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties, and any or all of these future plans and objectives may not be achieved. These statements reflect the current expectations or beliefs of HPQ-Silicon Resources Inc. (“the Company”) and are based on information currently available to the Company. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. All of the forward looking statements contained in this presentation are qualified by these cautionary statements and the risk factors described above. Furthermore, all such statements are made as of the date this presentation is given. An investment in the Company is speculative due to the nature of the its business. The ability of the Company to carry out its plans as described in this confidential presentation is depending on obtaining the required capital. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully raise the capital required or to complete each of the growth initiatives described. Investors must rely upon the ability, expertise, judgment, discretion, integrity and good faith of the management and Board of the Company. The Corporation’s is focus on developing the PUREVAP™ processes. The PUREVAP™ Quartz Reduction Reactor (QRR), a new carbothermic process to transform Quartz and Carbons into Silicon Metal, and the PUREVAP™ Silicon Metal (Si) Nano Reactor (SiNR), a new process to transform Silicon Metal into Spherical Nano powders and Nano wires for Lithium-ion batteries. The terms Silicon Metal and Si are used interchangeably. Metallurgical Grade Silicon or Mg Si refers to Silicon Metal of a purity between 98.0% Si and 99.5% Si. Any monetary values given to end product produce by the equipment, projected capital or operating cost and savings associated with the development of process should not be construed as being related to the establishing of the economic viability or technical feasibility on any of the Company’s Quartz properties or more specifically the Roncevaux Quartz Project, Matapedia Area, in the Gaspe Region, Province of Quebec.
