Fyndigheten Norra Kärr innehåller höga halter sällsynta jordartsmetaller, s.k. REE. Internationellt bedöms fyndigheten vara en av de viktigaste i världen avseende tunga-REE och den enda av betydelse i hela Europa. Att som ett prospekteringsbolag arbeta med en gruvetablering är dock inte helt enkelt, utan är en lång och rätt komplicerad process - en bild som inte alltid förmedlas utåt.

Some of the statements contained in the following material may be "forward-looking statements." All statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address
activities, events or developments that Tasman Metals Ltd. (“Tasman”) believes, expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "seek," "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "estimate," "expect," and "intend" and
statements that an event or result "may," "will," "can," "should," "could," or "might" occur or be achieved and other similar expressions. These forward-looking
statements reflect the current expectations or beliefs of Tasman based on information currently available to Tasman.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results of Tasman to differ materially from those discussed in
the forward-looking statements, and even if such actual results are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected
consequences to, or effects on Tasman. Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things,
failure to successfully complete intended financings, capital and other costs varying significantly from estimates, production rates varying from estimates, changes in
world metal markets, changes in equity markets, changes in laws or regulations, uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing needed in the future,
equipment failure, unexpected geological conditions, imprecision in resource estimates, success of future development initiatives, competition, operating performance of
facilities, environmental and safety risks, delays in obtaining or failure to obtain necessary permits and approvals from government authorities, and other development
and operating risks. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and, except as may be required by applicable securities laws,
Tasman disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise.
Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Mineral Resources and Reserves: In this presentation, the definitions of “mineral resources” are those used by
the Canadian securities administrators and conform to the definitions utilized by CIM in the “CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves – Definitions and
Guidelines” adopted on August 20, 2000 and amended December 11, 2005.
The standards employed in estimating the mineral resources referenced in this presentation differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the resource information reported may not be comparable to similar information reported by United States companies. The
term “resources” does not equate to “reserves” and normally may not be included in documents filed with the SEC. “Resources” are sometimes referred to as
“mineralization” or “mineral deposits.” While the terms “mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral
resource” are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, they are not defined terms under standards in the United States and normally are not permitted to be
used in reports and registration statements filed with the SEC. The terms “mineral reserve,” “proven mineral reserve” and “probable mineral reserve” are Canadian
mining terms as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 and the CIM - CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM
Council, as may be amended from time to time by the CIM. These definitions differ from the definitions in the SEC’s Industry Guide 7 (“SEC Industry Guide 7”) under
the Securities Act of 1933. As such, information contained in this presentation concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources under Canadian standards may
not be comparable to similar information made public by United States companies in SEC filings.
The estimation of measured, indicated and inferred mineral resources involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic feasibility than the estimation of
proven and probable reserves. U.S. investors are cautioned (i) not to assume that measured or indicated resources will be converted into reserves and (ii) not to
assume that estimates of inferred mineral resources exist, are economically minable, or will be upgraded into measured or indicated mineral resources. It cannot be
assumed that the Company will identify any viable mineral resources on its properties or that any mineral reserves, if any, can be recovered profitably, if at all.
The qualified person for the Company's exploration projects, Mark Saxon, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tasman and a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of
Mining and Metallurgy and Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists, has reviewed and verified the contents of this presentation.

Tasman – Korta fakta
█ Tasmans projekt omfattar två av
de mest intressanta REE
projekten globalt – Norra Kärr
and Olserum.
█ De enda REE projekten av
betydelse i Europa och inom EU.
█ Norra Kärr:
Kan försörja Europas behov
av REE de närmsta 50 åren
Låga halter av föroreningar,
ingen radioaktivitet
Mycket bra infrastruktur
█ Tasmans projekt omfattar
också den f.d. volframgruvan,
Yxsjöberg.

Inget avfall? – Återvinning/Hållbarhet?
Ett exempel på hållbarhet från Norra Kärr
█ Mineralen i Norra Kärr som inte innehåller REE består till 50% av
“Knappar” från Norra Kärr,
avfallet klarar tester avseende
kemi, vithet och lyster.
