The Mason Graphite NI 43‐101 mineral resource estimate and other information was sourced from the Mason Graphite news releases. The Qualified Person did not verify the information contained within the Mason Graphite news release and the mineralization on the Mason Graphite property is not necessarily indicative of the mineralization on the Company’s property . 2
Forward Looking Statements BERKWOOD IS UNIQUE IN THE FACT THAT : 1. Fully Financed! 2. Drill program underway next to Mason Graphite! 3. Only 15.5 million shares outstanding! 3
End Users of Graphite Traditional uses in Modern Industry • Steel Making ‐ added to raise carbon content. • Electrodes in electric arc furnaces • Brake pad linings • Dry lubricants New Technologies and Clean Energy • Fuel cells, which power hybrid and electric vehicles. • Lithium Ion Batteries in portable consumer devices, laptops, smartphones etc. • Heat spreaders in tablet computers, flat panel displays etc. • Lining for modern Pebble Bed Nuclear Reactors. • Development of Graphene ‐ -known as the miracle material of the 21st century. 4
The Power Of Graphite “Our cells should be called Nickel -Graphite, because primarily the cathode is nickel and the anode side is graphite with silicon oxide… [there’s] a little bit of lithium in there, but it’s like the salt on the salad,” Mr. Elon Musk – Tesla CEO. 5
SUCCESS IN SMALL CAP RESOURCE SECTOR 3 Things needed for success are: GEOLOGICAL STRUCTURE MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE SHARE STRUCTURE 6
BERKWOOD RESOURCES LTD. TSXv-BKR Offers all three Structures… Geological Structure - Mason Graphite preparing to build a mine next door and their structure appears to trend onto our property. - Cobalt and Lithium Projects recently announced Management Structure - Management team has over 100 years of experience in raising capital and working on many numerous producing mines around the world. Share Structure – - only 15,534,957 million shares outstanding 7
GEOLOGICAL STRUCTURE “The best place to look for a new mine is in the shadow of head frames.” Where there is one mine there is often others! 8
Extensions of Advanced Graphite Project Mason Graphite’s advanced Lac Guéret Project has at least 75 million tonnes of high grade large flake graphite with robust economics showing a $90 million cost to build the mine, a 2.5 year payback and a MASON minimum of 24 years of mine life. GRAPHITE Berkwood’s Lac Guéret directly borders Mason Graphite’s property to the east and south and shares similar prospective geology including along strike stratigraphic units, structure and BERKWOOD geophysical anomalies. Our main focus Project has been on the southern property. 9
Lac Guéret Extensions Project Location and Access • Located in Côte Nord, Quebec, Canada. Part of Plan Nord region, Quebec’s highly regarded sustainable development initiative • Three hours driving time from the city of Baie‐Comeau (290km) which has daily connections with major airlines. Mason Graphite has announced plans to build a large graphite processing plant in Baie ‐ Comeau • Easy access via a major secondary road and numerous tertiary and forest roads that traverse the property. • The Government of Quebec has committed $400 million to improve HWY 389 to the upcoming Fermont mine, which happens to go right past our property 10
Heli-Borne Geophysical Survey -High tech survey for a high tech mineral In 2014 ( MAG‐EM) airborne geophysical survey identified several large EM anomalous zones 11
Airborne Mag-EM surveys identify 6 anomalies and focus on two large ones, Zone 1 and Zone 2 ZONE 2 ZONE 1 12
Berkwoods Main property, The Lac Gueret South Property is South of Masons property and our property boundary line cuts through a shared anomaly, Zone 2 13
Zone 2 is of particular interest as it shows the Mason Berkwood property border cutting through it. ZONE 2 ZONE 1 14
Ground Geophysical crews confirming presence of airborne anomalies 15
Ground geophysical survey results from Zone 2. Confirms large conductive anomaly is real. 16
Zone 1 ground geophysical mag-em survey confirm airborne anomaly is real and highly conductive as well 17
Ground Sampling confirms presence of extremely high grade Graphite at surface - as high as 36.3% Carbon as Graphite 18
CORPORATE OVERVIEW GEOLOGICAL STRUCTURE Regional Airborne survey discover anything? SUCCESSFUL! Ground geophysical crews confirm discovery? SUCCESSFUL! Ground sampling program discover graphite at surface? SUCCESSFUL! Project de-risked as much as you can prior to drilling? SUCCESSFUL! DRILL PROGRAM UNDERWAY! 19
Lac Guéret Extensions Graphite Project Quebec • August 2017 Fully funded 1500 – 2000 metre drill program underway. 20
CORPORATE OVERVIEW MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE Berkwoods Management has over 100 years experience collectively in the resource sector. Management has been successful in raising large capital to finance numerous successful resource projects. Our team members have been instrumental in the numerous producing mines including Diavik Diamond Mine (Northwest Territories, Canada), Resolution Copper (Arizona, USA), Eagle Nickel (Michigan, USA), Lakeview Nickel (Minnesota, USA) and Bunder Diamonds (India). 21
CORPORATE OVERVIEW SHARE STRUCTURE SUCCESS!! The often overlooked, but crucial piece of a successful junior resource Company. If a major resource company offers a large sum of cash in a merger and acquisition for a successful junior…. How big will your piece of the pie be? The less the number of shares outstanding the bigger the piece you get!! Challenges! What happens if the program fails?? A company with too many shares outstanding and or no cash cannot raise money or has to do so at very low rates causing further excessive dilution and starts a downward spiral…. This is if they are lucky, or if they have too many shares out… the “C word” happens.. “Consolidation!” 22
