A Competent Person has not done sufficient work to disclose the ExplorationResults in accordance with JORC. It is possible that following further evaluation and/or exploration work that the confidence in the prior reported Exploration Results may be reduced when reported under JORC.Nothing has come to the attention of Tanga that causes it to question the accuracy or reliability of the former owner’s Exploration Results but Tanga has not independently validated the former owner’s ExplorationResults and therefore is not to be regarded as reporting, adopting or endorsing those results.

• Joumbira is located within a major metallogenic
corridor of the Damaran Orogenic Belt, Namibia
• Damaran Belt hosts a number of significant
deposits
• Navachab (27Mt @ 2g/t Au)
• Otjikoto (29Mt @ 1.5g/t Au)
• Kombat district (16Mt @ 2.6% Cu & 1.5% Pb)
• Tsumeb (74Mt @ 4% Cu & 10% Pb)
• Joumbira licence covers a total area of 210km2 of
which has had no modern day exploration and is
partially under cover
• Namibia is highly prospective geologically, is a
stable and mining friendly jurisdiction with
excellent infrastructure
Joumbira Zinc Project
6
• Total project area 210km2
• Joumbira Zn-Pb-Ag mineralisation is skarn hosted within Neo-proterozoicDamaran calc-silicate sedimentary rocks intruded by Cambrian aged felsic stocks. Massive sulphide replacement mineralisation occurs distal to the felsic intrusives
• Significant thicknesses of younger, post-Damaran cover occur within this metallogenic belt, principally Karoo-aged sandstones thrust over the Damaran rocks with recent Kalahari calcareous sands, clays, and gravels partially covering the area
• Very little modern geochemical orgeophysical exploration carried outsince 2002. Historical drillingfocused on one area
