Canadian $ unless otherwise stipulated.
Forward-looking Statements
This presentation includes certain statements that constitute "forward-looking statements", and "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable securities laws (collectively, "forward-looking
statements"). These statements appear in a number of places in this presentation and include statements regarding our intent, or the beliefs or current expectations of our officers and directors. Such forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. When used in this presentation words such as "intends", "expects", "will be", "underway", "targeted", "planned", "objective", "expected", "potential",
"continue", "estimated", "would", "subject to" and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements. Although Solaris Resources (the "Company") believes that the expectations reflected in
such forward-looking statements and/or information are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements since the Company can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to
be correct. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements,
including the risks, uncertainties and other factors identified in the Company's periodic filings with Canadian securities regulators, and assumptions made with regard to the ability to advance exploration efforts at
Warintza, Ricardo, La Verde and the other projects; the results of such exploration efforts; and the Companyās ability to advance its projects and achieve its growth objectives.
These forward-looking statements are based largely on current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends affecting the financial condition of our business. These forward-looking statements
were derived using numerous assumptions regarding expected project parameters, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those in the forward-looking statements. While the company considers these assumptions to be reasonable, based on information currently available, they may prove to be incorrect. Forward-looking statements are
based on information available at the time those statements are made and/or management's and/or its qualified persons' good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to information
currently available, they may prove to be incorrect. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made and/or management's and/or its qualified persons' good faith
belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties outlined in the Company's corporate disclosure and other documents filed on www.sedar.com, that
could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date those statements are made.
Except as required by applicable law, we assume no obligation to update or to publicly announce the results of any change to any forward-looking statement contained herein to reflect actual results, future events or
developments, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting the forward- looking statements. If we update any one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that we will make
additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements. You should not place undue importance on forward-looking statements and should not rely upon these statements as of any other date. All
forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.
Technical Information
The technical information contained in this document has been reviewed and approved by Jorge Fierro, M.Sc., DIC, PG, Vice President Exploration of Solaris who is a āQualified Personā under NI 43-101. All technical
information related to Warintza is based on the āResource Estimate of the Warintza Central Cu-Mo Porphyry Deposit" prepared by Equity Exploration Consultants Inc. with an effective date of December 13, 2019. All
technical information related to La Verde is based on the "Technical Report, La Verde Copper Project" prepared by AMC Mining Consultants (Canada) Ltd. with an effective date of June 20, 2018.
Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Mineral Resources
The mineral resource estimates described in this presentation have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. The terms
"mineral resource", "measured mineral resource", "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource" are defined in NI 43-101 and recognized by Canadian securities laws but are not defined terms under the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Guide 7 ("SEC Guide 7") or recognized under U.S. securities laws. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories
will ever be upgraded to mineral reserves. "Inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed
that all or any part of an "inferred mineral resource" will ever by upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of "inferred mineral resources" may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-
feasibility studies. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. Accordingly, these mineral resource estimates and related
information may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations
thereunder, including SEC Guide 7.

Responsible Mining | Our Story, Our Model
The Warintza Success Story
World class discovery by David Lowell in 2000, sat
largely dormant since 2001 due to a breakdown in
social acceptance from local communities
Extensive dialogue led to understanding root causes
of conflict, resolution of underlying issues mid-2019;
instituted an informed, innovative CSR program
Government-Sponsored Prior Consultation process
with community stakeholders and signed MOU in 2019,
Impacts & Benefits Agreement in 2020
The Warintza Model
Prior Consultation; formalized relationship based on
trust and transparency; full permitting, with no reliance
on Administrative Silence
Extensive employment from local and surrounding
communities, boosted by skills training and capacity
building programs to foster greater inclusion
Educational site visits to projects in Ecuador, Peru and
Canada to see industry best practices firsthand and
benchmark our practices
Franklin Kuja, Indigenous Leader of the Warints community: "Ecuador is a
megadiverse country, and we came to PDAC to show the industry that it is
possible to develop mining projects in a responsible and inclusive way and
that we are the main guarantee of the Warintza Project moving forward.ā

The Warintza Mineral Resource estimate was reported in the āResource Estimate Of The Warintza Central Cu-Mo Porphyry Deposit"
prepared by Equity Exploration Consultants Ltd. with an effective date of December 13, 2019. The Warintza Central Mineral Resource
statement has been prepared by Trevor Rabb, PGeo who is a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101. The resource is reported using a
cut-off of 0.2% copper. Solaris defines copper equivalent calculation for reporting purposes only. Copper-equivalence calculated as:
CuEq (%) = Cu (%) + 3.33 Ć Mo (%) + 0.73 Ć Au (g/t), utilizing metal prices of Cu - US$3.00/lb, Mo - US$10.00/lb and Au - US$1,500/oz.
Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.
The La Verde Mineral Resource estimate was reported in the "Technical Report, La Verde Copper Project, MichoacƔn State,
Mexico" prepared by AMC Mining Consultants (Canada) Ltd. with an effective date of June 20, 2018. The resource is reported
using a base-case cut-off grade of 0.2% copper. The cut-off grade of 0.2% copper is based on experience for similar open-pit
projects and a mining conceptual study which used a metal price of US$2.50/lb copper and copper metal recovery of 92%.
This Resource estimate is not constrained by a pit shell. Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have
demonstrated economic viability.
