Why Colombia? Why Colombia? • World Class Discovery Potential • Leaders In The World For Low Cost Of Discovery And Production • Federal Government Initiative To Drive Investment Growth In Mining & Resource Industries • USD $25 Billion National Infrastructure Investment Program • Mining has been deemed an Essential Industry and exempted from COVID-19 isolation restrictions 4 CSE:FENX
Abriaqui Project Location & Overview • 150 road km northwest of Medellin in Antioquia State and 4 km from the paved Panamerican highway • Drive-in exploration with a 12-month work season in one of the safest work areas in Colombia • Historical mining district with sufficient water and electricity for any future project needs • Known mineralization from 1,900 – 2,800m elevation well below Colombia’s paramo restricted zone • At the northern end of the 200 km Middle Cauca geologic trend where over 80 million new ounces of gold have been discovered since 2007 including Continental Gold’s Buritica, Anglo Gold’s Nuevo Chaquiro and La Colosa, and Gran Colombia’s Marmato deposits • 15 km west of the 11+ million ounce Buritica gold deposit in a similar geologic setting 5 CSE:FENX
Abriaqui Project Areas of Known Mineralization Google Earth image of the project area showing proximity to the Panamerican Highway and mapped high grade gold veins 6 CSE:FENX
Abriaqui Project Mineralization • Upper Miocene age diorite stock intrudes Cretaceous thin-bedded sediments with formation of a hornfels zone • Three styles of mineralization: veins with associated stockwork, manto-style replacement in sediments, and mineralized potassic alteration possibly representing the upper part of a gold porphyry system • Over 80 closely-spaced pyrite-pyrrhotite +/- cp-sph-gl- asp veins are developed in the diorite and hornfels zone • Veins crop out over the entire 800+ meter vertical extent of the property • Work to date consists of detailed geologic mapping, surface and underground rock sampling, hand trenching, preliminary petrographic studies, ground magnetics, and preparation of a NI 43-101 Technical Report 7 CSE:FENX
Abriaqui Project Comparison with Buritica Deposit • Buritica is a high grade gold vein deposit 15 km east of Abriaqui with +11 million ounces in resources • Similar geologic setting with upper Miocene diorite intruding Cretaceous fine grained sediments • Both deposits with 80+ closely-spaced, high grade veins developed in 500m wide corridors with many areas of interstitial, lower grade mineralization • Ore grade veins at Buritica drilled over 1,200m vertical interval with upper level carbonate base metal veins, and gold bearing py-po veins and a magnetic body modelled as a gold-bearing porphyry at depth (source: Continental Gold reports & releases). • High grade (+20 g/t Au) py-po bearing veins at Abriaqui are undrilled but crop out over a +800m vertical interval. Magnetic body with outcropping potassic alteration just breaching the surface. Note: map & inset are the same scale 8 CSE:FENX
Abriaqui Project Gold Values in Veins • All of the 80+ veins mapped in the project area are gold bearing with more than 20 having assays in excess of 20 g/t gold and up to a max of 146 g/t gold . • Several mapped outcrops contain 1-5 g/t gold in quartz-sulfide stockwork and veinlet swarms. Closely-spaced 20 - 150 cm thick veins • Gold is free-milling as shown by the production from small water-driven gravity separation mills on the property • Silver:Gold ratio (Ag:Au) averages about 2:1 with a potential Cu-(Pb-Zn) by-product credit Zones of stockwork mineralization 9 CSE:FENX
Abriaqui Project Phase 1 Work Plan • US$2.9 million, 18-month work program began in March 2020 • Expand ground magnetometry grid with 3D modelling to cover entire property • Soil sampling with multi-element analysis • Detailed alteration mapping • Detailed channel sampling on manto zone • Finalize permitting for drill program • Two-phase 6,000m diamond drill program with first 3,500m testing veins and porphyry model • First holes targeted to intersect veins that sampled 21.1 g/t Au, 30.4 g/t Au, and 55.4 g/t Au 10 CSE:FENX
Why Fenix Oro? • Fully-funded* 24-month US$2.9 million exploration & drill program • Spending requirement US$1.6 million over 36-months to earn 90% • Plan includes small production facility for existing small miners • Aggressively evaluating additional project acquisitions in the immediate area as well as secondary opportunities * Assuming the exercise of the outstanding in-the-money warrants 11 CSE:FENX
