This presentation contains or incorporates by reference “forward-looking statements” and “forward-looking information” (collectively, “forward-looking
statements”) within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation and applicable U.S. securities laws concerning the Company’s plans for its
properties, operations and other matters. Except for statements of historical fact relating to the Company, certain statements contained herein or
incorporated by reference constitute forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, statements regarding the projections contained in the
Company’s Technical Report (as defined below), financing sources available to continue to explore the Company’s Lost Cities – Cutucú Project, the future
financial or operating performance of the Company and its properties and projects, the supply and demand for metals, government regulation of mining
operations, political uncertainties, the ability of the Company to obtain all government approvals, permits and third party consents in connection with the
Company’s exploration, development and operating activities, accidents and labour disputes, future anticipated and current exploration programs and
expenditures, exploration results, the potential discovery and delineation of mineral deposits/resources/reserves, proposed business plans, the potential
impact of COVID-19 on the Company, anticipated business trends and metal prices, and may relate to analyses and other information that are based on
forecasts of future results, general business and economic conditions, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management. Any
statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future
events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “anticipates” or “does not
anticipate”, “plans”, “estimates”, “believes”, “proposed”, “intends” or “does not intend”, or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”,
“could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be, or not be, taken, occur or be or not be achieved) are not statements of fact and may be forward-looking
statements.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, which could cause actual
events or results to differ materially and adversely from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. These risks are described or referred to under
the heading “Risk Factors” in the annual information form of the Company dated May 5, 2021 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and under the heading
“Risk and Uncertainties” in the management’s discussion and analysis of consolidated results of operations and financial condition dated April 22, 2021 for
the year ended December 31, 2020. Should one or more of the risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual
results may vary materially and adversely from those described in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are made based on
management’s beliefs, estimates, assumptions and opinions on the date the statements are made and, other than as required by applicable law, the
Company undertakes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements if these beliefs, estimates, assumptions and opinions or other circumstances
should change. Investors are cautioned against attributing undue certainty or weight to forward-looking statements.
Readers are also cautioned that the assumptions used in the preparation of such information, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation,
may prove to be imprecise and, as such, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual results, programs and
financial position could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by these forward-looking statements, and accordingly, no assurance can be
given that the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will transpire or occur, or that, if any of them do so, what benefits the Company will
derive therefrom.

▪ Scout drilling is an integral part of Aurania’s exploration program due to the large size of the Project’s
Drill Program concession area, combined with difficult access to the dense jungle-covered mountainous terrain
▪ A scout drilling program is progressing on high priority targets in Ecuador using two drill rigs; ~15,000m
Underway drilled, 35 holes
▪ The drill program is being complemented through a MobileMT geophysical survey

Prof. Gregor Borg completed his third visit to site in November 2021:
• Prof. Borg is a specialist in sediment-hosted copper, zinc and lead
• Evaporites, salt and “salt tracks” (collapse breccias)
• Evidence of faults moving during sedimentation (talus breccia)
