Metal equivalents for the Little Deer Mineral Resource Estimate have been calculated at a copper price of US$8,750/t, gold price of US$2,500/oz and silver price of US$25/oz. Individual Mineral Resource grades for the metals are set out in Appendix A of this announcement.Metallurgical factors have been applied to the metal equivalent calculation. Copper recovery used was 95%. Historical production at the Ming Mine has a documented copper recovery of ~96%. Precious metal (gold and silver) metallurgical recovery was assumed at 85% based on historical recoveries achieved at the Ming Mine in addition to historical metallurgical test work to increase precious metal recoveries.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.In the opinion of the Company, all elements included in the metal equivalent calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold on the basis of current market conditions, metallurgical test work, the Company’s operational experience and, where relevant, historical performance achieved at the Green Bay project whilst in operation.Copper equivalent for the Green Bay Copper-Gold Project was calculated based on the formula:CuEq(%) = Cu(%) + (Au(g/t) x 0.97106) + (Ag(g/t) x 0.01360).Copper equivalent for Little Deer was calculated based on the formula:CuEq(%) = Cu(%) + (Au(g/t) x 0.82190) + (Ag(g/t) x 0.00822).FireFly confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original announcements referred to or cross-referenced in this announcement and that, in the case of Mineral Resource Estimates, all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the Mineral Resource Estimates in the original announcements continue to apply and have not materially changed. The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Persons’ and Qualified Persons’ findings are presented have not been materially modified from the original market announcements.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.Scientific and Technical InformationMr Juan Gutierrez, BSc, Geology (Masters), Geostatistics (Postgraduate Diploma), Group Chief Geologist at FireFly, and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical disclosure contained in this announcement.FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATIONThis announcement may contain certain forward-looking statements and projections, including statements regarding the SPP, and FireFly’s plans, forecasts and projections with respect to its mineral properties and programs.

Metal equivalents for the Little Deer Mineral Resource Estimate have been calculated at a copper price of US$8,750/t, gold price of US$2,500/oz and silver price of US$25/oz.Metallurgical recoveries have been set at 95% for copper and 85% for both gold and silver. These assumptions are made on the basis of historical production at the Ming Mine and additional metallurgical test work.Copper equivalent for the Green Bay Copper-Gold Project was calculated based on the formula: CuEq(%) = Cu(%) + (Au(g/t) x 0.97106) + (Ag(g/t) x 0.01360). Copper equivalent at Little Deer was calculated based on the formula: CuEq(%) = Cu(%) + (Au(g/t) x 0.82190) + (Ag(g/t) x 0.00822).Totals may vary due to rounding.
