Cautionary Note to United States Readers Concerning Mineral Resources and Reserves:

The standards employed in estimating the mineral resources referenced in this document differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities andExchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the resource information reported may not be comparable to similar information reported by United States companies. Theterm “resources” does not equate to “reserves” and normally may not be included in documents filed with the SEC. “Resources” are sometimes referred to as“mineralization” or “mineral deposits.” While the terms “mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource”are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, they are not defined terms under standards in the United States and normally are not permitted to be used inreports and registration statements filed with the SEC.

The estimation of measured, indicated and inferred mineral resources involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic feasibility than the estimation ofproven and probable reserves. United States readers are cautioned (i) not to assume that measured or indicated resources will be converted into reserves and (ii) thatInferred Mineral Resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It is reasonably expected that themajority of the Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration. It cannot be assumed that Tinka will identifyany viable mineral resources on its properties or that any mineral reserves, if any, can be recovered profitably, if at all.

The terms “mineral reserve,” “proven mineral reserve” and “probable mineral reserve” are Canadian mining terms defined in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 and the CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. These definitions differ from the definitions in the SEC’s Industry Guide 7 and,generally, are not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the SEC.

As such, information contained in this document and the documents incorporated by reference herein concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources underCanadian standards may not be comparable to similar information made public by United States companies in SEC filings.

The Mineral Resources disclosed in this company presentation were estimated by Mr. David Ross, P.Geo., an employee of Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. (RPA) and isindependent of Tinka. The Zinc/Tin Mineral Resources were publicly released on November 8, 2017, while the Silver Resources were released on Feb 26, 2015. By virtue ofhis education and relevant experience, Mr. Ross is a "Qualified Person" for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101. The Mineral Resources have been classified inaccordance with CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. Readers are encouraged to read the Company’s technical report in theirentirety.

This presentation has been prepared, reviewed and verified by Dr. Graham Carman, Tinka’s President and CEO and a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining andMetallurgy, a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101.

Ayawilca Zinc Zone Inferred Mineral Resources: 42.7 Mt grading 7.3% ZnEq

Notes:1. Mineral resource estimate at October 10, 2017

2. Base case highlighted ~ US$55/t NSR cut off. Metal price assumptions were US$1.15/lb Zn, US$300/kg In, US$18/oz Ag, US$1.10/lb Pb. Metal recovery assumptions were 90% Zn, 75% In, 60% Ag, and 75% Pb for the ZnEq calculation.

3. The NSR value was calculated using the formula: NSR = Zn(%)*US$15.34+Pb(%)*US$6.15+In(g/t)*US$0.18+Ag(g/t)*US$0.27]4. The ZnEq value was calculated using the formula: ZnEq = NSR/US$15.345. See “Technical Report on the Mineral Resource Estimate for the Ayawilca Property, Department of Pasco, Peru” dated December 11, 2017, for

details of resource estimates and assumptions (available at www.sedar.com or at www.tinkaresources.com)6. “Inferred Mineral Resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It is

reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources will ever be converted into Mineral Reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable. 13
