The information concerning the Company’s mineral properties has been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 (“NI-43-101”) adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators. In
accordance with NI-43-101, the terms “Mineral Reserves”, “Proven Mineral Reserve”, “Probable Mineral Reserve”, “Mineral Resource”, “Measured Mineral Resource”, “Indicated Mineral Resource” and “Inferred
Mineral Resource” are defined in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves adopted by the CIM Council on May
10, 2014. While the terms “Mineral Resource”, “Measured Mineral Resource”, “Indicated Mineral Resource” and “Inferred Mineral Resource” are recognized and required by NI 43-101, the U.S. Securities
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) does not recognize them. The reader is cautioned that, except for that portion of mineral resources classified as mineral reserves, mineral resources do not have demonstrated
economic value. Inferred Mineral Resources have a high degree of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be economically or legally mined. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of
any Inferred Mineral Resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Therefore, the reader is cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource exists, that it can be
economically or legally mined, or that it will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Likewise, you are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of a measured or Indicated Mineral Resource will ever be
upgraded into Mineral Reserves.
Readers should be aware that the Company’s financial statements (and information derived therefrom) have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by
the International Accounting Standards Board and are subject to Canadian auditing and auditor independence standards. IFRS differs in some respects from United States generally accepted accounting
principles and thus the Company’s financial statements (and information derived therefrom) may not be comparable to those of United States companies. Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar values herein
are in US$.

Notes:
(1) Metal price assumptions used were US$1.21/lb Zn, US$1.06/lb Pb and US$18/oz Ag.
(2) Zinc equivalent metal grade (ZnEq %) was calculated as follows Zn% +(Pb % x 0.8175) +(Ag g/t x 0.0149) = ZnEq% and is based on 88.9% Zn, 74.3% Pb and 77.7% Ag metallurgical recoveries.
(3) A cut-off value of 4.76% ZnEq was used to estimate the Mineral Reserve which considered metal price assumptions, metal recoveries, refining charges, concentrate mass pulls, operating costs, royalties, concentrate treatment
charges, payables, penalties and transportation/selling costs.
(4) Mineral Resources are stated inclusive of Mineral Reserves, tonnages, grades and contained metal values have been rounded, totals may vary due to rounding.

Notes:
(1) Mineral Resources are stated inclusive of Mineral Reserves, Tonnage, grade and contained metal values have been rounded, totals may vary due to rounding.
(2) Price assumptions used were US$1.21/lb Zn, US$1.06/lb Pb and US$18/troy oz Ag. Zinc equivalent metal grade (ZnEq. %) was calculated as follows: Zn% +(Pb % x 0.82) +(Ag g/t x 0.0149) = ZnEq% and is based on 88.9% Zn
recovery, 74.3% Pb recovery and 77.7% Ag recovery.
(3) A cut-off of 3.1% ZnEq. was used to estimate Mineral Resources and is based on fourth quarter 2017 marginal direct operating costs.
(4) Results of an interpolated bulk density deposit model have been applied, and contributing 5ft downhole assay composites were capped at 38% Zn, 36% Pb and 2000g/t Ag.
(5) Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
(6) The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of
the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.
(7) The Mineral Resource content of this presentation was completed by Michael Cullen, P. Geo. of Mercator Geological Services Limited, Mr. Cullen supervised and is responsible for the Mineral Resource Estimate and is an
“Independent Qualified Person” as defined by NI 43-101.

Zinc Fundamentals
Zinc Fundamentals Remain Strong as Supply Continues to Drive Tightening Market
Source: Bloomberg, LME
Jan 2007
LME Zinc Warehouse Stock Levels (T) (RHS) / Zinc Spot Price ($/Lb) (LHS)
Key drivers for a sustained and strong zinc price:
Physical zinc market remains very tight
Fundamentals continue to indicate structural deficits due to lack of new supply. Supply deficits drove prices to 10-year
highs of $1.63/lb in Jan. 2018. Although current prices have edged down due to new supply expectations and trade war
rhetoric, analysts forecast continued tightness in the physical market.
Global zinc demand remains steady.
Modest global GDP growth of 2-3% implies strengthening demand (~400kt pa of additional new supply required).
Zinc price forecasts remain strong.
Analysts’ average annual zinc price forecasts: 2018E: US$1.46/lb / 2019E: US$1.40/lb / 2020E: US$1.31/lb
Recent Pullback Appears Unwarranted.
Uncertainty regarding potential global trade wars and political rhetoric has resulted a material pullback in prices over the past
few months, however, underlying fundamentals have not changed, supporting a recovery in prices.
